"Machine Gun Blues"

Jon is 32 having a meal in a bar after he spend the day working odd jobs like painting the bathroom and replacing some old pipes in there. Jon had been doing this like of work drifting from one town to the next for 11 years now or so after he lost his family farm that his folks had. The farmer life wasn't for him and it showed in the few years after his parents passing.

Jon turned around to listen to a lady on the bar. Jon was just finishing up his meal when he seen her jump off the bar. Jon touched her arm as she was about to walk by and said "Mis, would you join me" as she walked by. Jon got up and slipped the fries and his drink behind the bar. He let the bartender know he was going to step out for a sec and would be back for the rest of the meal. Jon walked out of the bar and looked for the lady. He seen her along side a car. Jon walked up to her and said "Mis, would you join me at the table in there while I finish my meal? I would like to talk to you about your crew."

Jon knew he didn't look like much other then a walking skeleton. Joys of being 5'10 and only 180. He had blue eyes that shifted from light blue to dark blue on his mood it seams. He was normal high little on the light side for body mass but he was all muscle and not a ounce of fat on his body it seams. Jon hopes his blue jean pants and white shirt don't let her over look him. He knew he is a crack shot with a repeating rifle he keeps hidden at a hobo camp where he is staying.

Jon knew he would have some good skills as he was handy with most any tool from working on the farm. He could work on anything from a lawn mower to a truck and or tractor engine. He was also a crack shot from years of hunting. He didn't have any crime skills tho.

Mona looks across the bar at Jessie. She was looking for a crew. Pretty girl, I wondered what how her last crew got messed up, but I was thinking this could be fun. I walked out to the car and said

"Hi....." Wearing my jeans and halter top, I still had my glass of wine in my hand.
 
I see another female come out the other door walking up to her. When she says "Hi" I smile and say "Hi there, I am Jon." I hold out my hand to the 2 lady's.
 
"hello Jon." I look at Jon and wonder what he is interested in. I didn't even know. I had lots of experience with gangs, robbery, etc.
 
Jon smiles and says "Oh cool I don't know anything about that. I been drifting for over the last 10 years now. I think 11 or 12. I am looking for change of pace." Jon scratches head and say I don't know if you can use me but I can fix any kind of engine and good with all kinda of tools. Back in Minnesota on the farm we didn't get much crime.
 
"Well, you seem like a nice young man." My breasts were pushing against my halter. I took a step towards him.
 
Jon smiles and nods. Jon said "I am always up to picking up new trades" Jon with drew his hand seeing the ladys don't shake hands. Jon turns to face the woman who hasn't said her name yet who has taken a step towards him. Jon stands his ground.

Jon takes note they don't shake hands right away when meeting new folks, and not to give his name away. If he is going to fit in with the new crew.
 
Jim noticed the two recent exits after Jessie's announcement of needing a crew. What the heck. With no real opportunities to explore, he thought it might be time to try something new.

He could be rejected for having a few years on them, but his experience in most levels of being outside the law may be beneficial. A few of those may have been behind bars; but isn't that just advanced education?

He swallows the last of his drink and heads out....
 
"I'm sure you will work out fine, Jon.....oh by the way, my name is mona."

I notice another man coming to the car.

"Hello....." I say. He is quite handsome also
 
I get close enough to them just as I hear Mona state her name. My natural southern kicks in and a tip to an imaginary hat, smile and wink...

"Nice to meet ya Mona."

And a complete beauty she was. A rough edge was in her demeanor... that tantalizing type....
 
"Nice to meet you Mona." Jon smiles as he allows him self to look her over a bit. Jon turns his back to the car so he can keep everyone in site. Jon shrugs and says "If you like the older type. Hes wrong gender for me, but I would much rather look at you Mona."
 
"Now, now gentlemen......don't fight over me. We are going to be in the same crew, then we should work together, like this." I lean over and kiss Jon's lips, then move toward George.
 
"Wow, I so didnt see that coming. Yes your right we should work together." Jon turns his head a bit to the new guy, but still can see Mona.
 
Jim chuckles inwardly at the statement by Jon..

But a job is a job....

Turning to Jessie, he raises an eyebrow...but keeping Jon in sight.
 
I take a step toward George.......

"Well, we should welcome you to the group." I kiss his lips also.
 
**changing to George for a name**

George kisses Mona back...a bit more than a meet and greet.


"From North Carolina and a dozen other places...not tied down to any one place, now or ever, Jon. Yourself?"
 
Jessie seems to be enjoying the banter...probably more concerned where we are going than where we are from. Frankly, so am I.
 
"Very nice...." I looked at both of them and smiled. Since I didn't know where Jessie was, I decided we might as well get more comfortable.
