[b]Augustus and Steelback Jim[/b]
[b]Azmar[/b]
The bald man approaches, with sharp teeth and a murderous glint in his eye, and puts the pistol right to the back of Augustus's head, ruffling Augustus's "Rebel without a Cause" esque wavy hair.
[u]"This is a real hoot, my friends. We let the boy into Liba and then he steals our food? Our rations? Our booze? A real fool,"[/u] the bald man says, smiling with his nose pointed towards the dark Azmar sky.
"Listen, Jim, I don't want trouble."
[u]"Never, ever call me Jim you bastard."[/u]
"I know a guy. He can get you out of this real fast, pay you tons. We'll both walk away happy," Augustus says coolly, like there isn't a fun to the back of his head.
[u]"Bullshit. Put your hands above your head and tell me who this guy is."[/u]
Augustus raises his hands.
"Aaron Sawyer."
A gunshot can be heard over all of Azmar as birds, startled, fly away from where Augustus lays in the sand, his blood pooling around his chest.
