Zabel didn't know how to answer his question and tried to change the subject matter.
"Tock, Is the CB back up and running?"
Fiddling round with the knobs and power switch, Tock gave it a technical knock. It came back to life and she threw up the OK sign. Tom could hear Tick testing the turret as servo motor whirred and some unfired bullets hit the floor. Silent got SUV's engine to start and into drive. As they rode along a dirt path in a woodland, he stared down at Zabel. She was not oblivious to this.
"Sr. from what I know, dragons need a mixture of different mana to have children. When they do find someone with that mix, wars have been started before."
Tom sighed as he looked up at the roof.
"Let me guess, she wants to put me under lock and key right?"
Bobbing her head.
"Yes Sr."
The woods opened up to a grassy field with some trees here and there. A prison tower sat in the middle of a razor wire fence. Security cameras and flood lights covered the four corners of the perimeter. Warning signs dotted the landscape like red flowers. The cherry on top of the tower was a Phalanx CIWS AA gun. Tom found his dream home. Zabel keyed the mic.
"Beta-6 at the gates of Gun Tower, over."
A response crackled over the CB.
"Beta-6 you are not do for another hour, confirmation code needed, over."
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Everyone groaned in despair but Tom. He was a bit confused at their annoyed mood.
"What just give them the confirmation code."
Jester spoke up.
"Ya, but it can take just to an hour to confirm."
Tom's open palm was in front of Zabel. Offering it to him anxiously.
"Gun Tower, I'm coming home."
Passing it back to her as he got out of the SUV. Zabel distressed voice yelled after him.
"Sr? Sr!"
The SUV slowly followed him as he walked to the gate. Zabel, Jester and Tock got out to jog next to him. Tom want with the full evil wizard effect. The sky turned dark, as he jammed all radio waves. An army made of dirt, sand and grass men stood up as rocks flutter round. He Poured out a bottle of gasoline and a true dragon made of fire walked next to the small SUV. Tick rose up in her mini gun turret and pointed at the tower. She stared up at the fiery serpent-like god in awe. Kobold commandos popped out of spider holes and unlocked the gate by hand. They stood unsteadily at attention and saluted Tom. The fire dragon flew over the tower and then in the dark sky to disappear. The rock and men crumbled to the gound. The jamming stoped as the sky turned blue. Zabel peered up at Tom.
"Sr. can you it make not look like our god next time?"
His head snapped to her.
"Oops..."
