The two missing soldiers were not dead.They were in a lower
level keeping guard on a pack of frightened wolf creatures.Gus
Mcfarlane and his pal Rutherford Ames were civil war enthusiasts
and always took their goodluck pieces with them into battle.Gus
carried a 1861 44 cal cap n ball revolver while Rutherford kept a
pair of dueling pistols on his person.
The wolf creatures had them cornered,they were out of ammo and were
about to die.The wolfs advanced on them drooling and snarling.
Then Gus remembered his good luck piece.He pulled it out and levelled
it on the lead wolf.Of course it wouldn't work,it was just a last
ditch attempt.he cocked the trigger back and squeezed.The revolver
chain fired,BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM.Lead smoke and flame spat out of the
gun.The lead wolf halted,his eyes widened in fear and his nostrils
flared as he took in the scent of FFF black powder.He backpedalled
and knocked down the other wolves in his rush to get away from the
Thunder Boom Stick.
