Chapter 9 - Freedom to Choose
A few hours later we left the building and climbed into my car. The river dunes were located out of town and were a popular place for indie-band concerts because of the ‘stadium seating’ and acoustics. It was also a perfect location for college benders or the occasional ‘fight’ because of its secluded atmosphere. However, those kinds of events usually took place in the summer months, not the end of November. We hadn’t been hit yet with a substantial amount of snow and what had fallen had melted with the rain that followed.
When we pulled up to the parking area we were both surprised by the amount of vehicles. I cast a glance over to Brand. “How many guys did you tick-off?” He didn’t answer.
We exited my car and walked toward the edge of the dune overlooking the river below and found roughly two-hundred people gathered for the carnage. We began our descent through the damp sand and as we neared the bottom I noticed the large group of guys waiting for Brand.
“How many different Fraternities did you offend, Brand?”
“Oh damn.” Brand muttered under his breath.
I followed his line of sight and found Suz along with her group of friends huddled together in their matching fur-trimmed parkas. I quickly read Suz’s mind to find out if she was here to see him go down or to watch him kick ass. She was here to watch him kick ass and she’d apparently told all her friends about his fighting skills… and they’d told all their friends, and so on and so forth. I touched on a few other minds and found they were here because of what they’d heard about Brand.
“I can’t believe you are more upset with her presence verses the thirty guys waiting for you down there.”
He grunted something inaudible in return.
“I’m going to stay up here. I know I don’t need to wish you luck, Brand, but good luck.”
He winked at me. “Piece of cake.”
He continued down to the bottom of the dune along the bank of the river and I sat down on the damp sand in a spot that gave me a good view of Brand and most of the onlookers. Suz shot some nasty daggers my way causing me to turn my head and that’s when I saw him.
Freedom stood by the edge of the river with his arms folded across his chest wearing his sunglasses and long leather duster/trench coat. I wasn’t sure if I should communicate with him or not, of course, if I waited long enough he’d probably talk to me, like last time. However, I wasn’t sure if he’d seen me yet.
My attention was brought back to Brand who was being circled by the many buff college guys. Sheez, Brand, you never do anything half-way do you? I thought to myself. The boys were yelling insults and curse words at Brand who looked positively bored. I recognized one of the boys to be Travis from the Mixer a few months back.
