All right, so word on the street today was that when asked to turn in a simple short story, Milton's weak, pathetic Gazetters have been struggling and flailing over the most writes-itself prompt that ever existed, crying and rubbing their snot on Endmaster's robes for over a week now? How can this be??

As Thara would say, guess they must just be pussy bitch faggots who can't help themselves.

Knowing that it was my duty to help my lessers, I went to Milton to laugh at them instead, at which time I find out the deadline is actually today, and not whatever date the Gazette usually comes out on. (Whenever that is. Not like I read it.)

So I actually did feel pity at that point and offered to prepare something in case anyone ended up eating ice cream in bed instead of finishing on time--but instead, it would appear they shared an entire jar of Metamucil, and so got their stories out on time, in some form or other anyway. (Possibly still on their beds though.) Good for the Gazette.

But anyway, the prompt was about being the leader of a post apocalyptic gang. Even in a world where Fallout and Mad Max don't exist, we still have Ground Zero to inspire us, not to mention Endmaster's tireless work running Fallen Lands, a game in which we are playing the leaders of post apocalyptic gangs. Easy, right?

So anyway, here's my story that I wrote in three and a half hours:

Just Some Ordinary Guys That idiot, the skinny kid with the gun. You still remember exactly the way that kid smelled. The sour stink of unwashed clothes and sweat. Long blond hair, also unwashed. He wore an oversized black trenchcoat, of course. A kid like that, what else could it have been? "GenCorp is killing the planet!" he screeched, voice cracking hoarsely. And then he'd shot you twice, in the side and the stomach, babbling about a message from God. Twenty seconds later, he'd been reduced to red mist by the autobots, but for you it was twenty seconds too late. Back then, that greasy kid was YOUR monster. And man, you had just been a security guard. Guy Wimbleton, a pretty unassuming guy. You liked to read, were working your way through a degree that would've been useless even before the bombs fell. And that moment, the teenaged indignation behind that stupid cracking voice and that smell would mark the last time your life was anything like normal. The big war happened while you were still drugged up eight levels underground in the GenCorp biocenter, Regenerative Therapy, Wing E. Though you soon came to believe even that wasn't enough to save you from the full effects of the radiation. You escaped not long after, with Larry and Barry. And over the years, several more have joined the gang. The past is all gone. It's just you and your friends now, ambling along. How long has it been? "Daydreaming again, Big Guy?" It's Barry's voice. You blink yourself back to the present, and rumble out a laugh. "You know I'm prone to it." "Well, hate to interrupt, but you know how the boys are, some of us are getting pretty hungry." All the gang--the Wimble Gang! You guys are tight. They're like your family, your kids even. But Barry is the one you've always felt is the most like you. He and Larry have been with you the longest, but Larry is even more of a dreamer than you are. You can hear him mumbling to himself now in his low, gravelly voice, and you tilt your head and strain to listen. "Ten thousand saw I at a glance, tossing their heads in sprightly dance..." Ah, old Wordsworth. Used to be a favorite of yours too. But there's no spritely dancing here, and certainly no daffodils. "So gents, we ready for some grub?" you ask, to a chorus of affirmation. At least with this bunch you'll never be 'lonely as a cloud'. There's Barry, Larry, Gorgeous George, Frankie, Leaky, Lefty, Thing One and Thing Two, and then Atticus with the baby on his arm; still not officially named, but of course you're partial to Scout. Got to stay thematic. You look out over the countryside. Gotta admit, it's not bad our here, for a post apocalyptic wasteland. Some thirsty looking shrubs still manage to add a touch of green to the long brown grasses. And here and there even a smattering of purple flowers. You could almost forget how far the world had fallen, if not for the crumbling city and broken down overpass on the horizon. Though the weeds by now have nearly finished engulfing the rusted cars. Cresting a hill, you come to what you'd hoped to find out here; a hollow like a tiny valley, low hills and brush along a ridge sheltering a small flock of grazing sheep below. By some feat of old world bioengineering or a freak of mutated genes, their wool has taken on a curious mix of colors. But it's a lovely sight, very pastoral...and you can hear the stomachs growling now, even your own. From their usual spot at your right side, the twins give gibbering laughs from their oversized jaws, and the rest of you ready your weapons. Larry even snaps out of his poem recitals to help coordinate the charge. There will be no resistance; the handful of herders are already fleeing in terror as you all stumble down the hill. Not the smoothest approach, with so many unruly minds and moving parts it's not exactly military precision, but you're all working on that. The feast when all is done isn't a very pretty thing either. "Thank you oh Lord for these gifts we are about to receive," is all you manage to mumble out, just to add a bit of ceremony to the affair before you're all ripping and gouging and tearing into the flesh raw. You stuff pieces of meat into the mouths of Thing One and Thing Two, and they blissfully go to chewing, while you gnaw on a whole leg of mutton. "It's just like a Renaissance Faire!" you blurt out, waving the haunch. Except for Larry and Barry you doubt the others get the joke, but a couple of them chuckle politely. Soon though, you hear the hum of motors, and company arrives with a popcorn crackle of gunfire. Human figures, painted blue and red, shaking rifles in the air and hollering in anger as they begin to swerve away. "That didn't take them long," Barry huffs. "They're more coordinated than I expected," you agree, scowling towards the warband. One of them jeers and shouts something incomprehensible at you, and Atticus picks them off with his own rifle with the usual precision aim. The baby starts to squawk but he shushes it quickly. "What are they even saying?" George wants to know of these warriors with the bikes. "Has anyone noticed that? The humans, these last few times...they don't even speak the same language as us anymore." "Time passes, dialects shift. There's no standards of education anymore," Larry explains, a little sadly. "Ugghhh..." Frankie moans. "Gahahahaa!" shriek the twins at your side. "Hey! Ssspeak Englisssh you ssuh--sssuh--ssstupid faggotsss!" Leaky sputters out at the motorcyclists, spraying spittle. "Right well we've got bigger problems," you interrupt. You can tell a bullet has already grazed Lefty, though he doesn't complain, and a few more have plunked into the mass of your gang, luckily without doing too much damage. The noise of the engines after fading has gotten suddenly louder, and you know they're coming in for another pass at you. After a brief conference with the others, you all bound up the hill on the opposite side. A much easier task for your bunch than coming down had been, with so many arms to grab and scrabble at the dirt, hauling you up bodily. The bikes you hear continuing around the dirt path on the far left, and when they erupt back out into the hollow below you're ready for them. There's no climbing down this time--no, you just jump. Smashing full force into the bike in front, grunting but barely phased while the rest of the bikes swerve and skid this way and that. You and Barry grab the downed rider. He screeches in your hands. The sour, unwashed stench of all of this unfortunate bastard triggers something in the back of your mind, and you damn near break him in half, hurling the body at the others, then picking up his bike and throwing that too with a rumbling chorus of cries as the Wimble Gang goes to work. Like always, the fight is something you remember only in brief impressions--Thing One is chomping down hard on a screaming man's hand while Atticus finishes him off with a pistol, and Gorgeous George smashes another rider right off his bike with a mean right hook. Some bullets sting you, but not enough to slow you down. Catching your breath in the aftermath, you start to come back to yourself. "Unlucky bastards," is all you say, shaking your head at the mangled, broken forms. "Idiots!" Lefty spits. "Shouldn't have messed with us. They see THIS and they don't know to keep away?" "Let's find their shacks and toast them," Barry says, always the practical one. "Or we'll be fending them off for days if there's any more." With the extra guns picked up from the battle site this doesn't take long at all, just a matter of tracking them back to their base, which turns out to be a mostly intact old world structure surrounded by palisade walls, and a gate made of corrugated sheeting which unfortunately for them, isn't strong enough to keep you from tearing it off the hinges and falling on the place in the middle of the night. Again, not pretty, but this is the wasteland. Afterwards, you survey the carnage. Those transfixed looks of terror on their faces. You've seen them before, on both the living and the suddenly dead. Maybe you had that expression once yourself, long, long ago. But you and the gang, you were the monsters for THESE people, you know. Can't really blame them, honestly. You know what they see: a center mass of rippling flesh and muscle, skin pockmarked and scarred but thick enough to withstand even acid rain. Too many arms and legs, and far too many heads. A shambling thing, a mutated creature of wasteland nightmares. You used to regret that this happened to you, but those extra heads have become your best friends! You couldn't imagine life without the gang. "You know this place was built up pretty well. And there are still sheep around. Wouldn't be a bad place to lay low. Because...well don't the rest of you feel that?" Atticus asks. And yes, of course you do. Where one of the bullets hit, a heated, buzzing feeling. You know it better than anyone. The next few days you spend repairing the gate, piling up any useful supplies, and making comfortable the parts of the building most structurally suitable for you. It's impossible to keep a strict watch on the surroundings while doing this, but a couple of times you do catch sight of other humans in the distance. These are painted differently, and keep their distance, offering no signs of aggression. Late one evening you even notice they've left your gang a gift; a two headed ram and pair of two headed ewes tied up outside. "Well, that's different," you say after the area has been cleared for signs of ambush and the animals brought inside. "A peace offering maybe? And...some kind of statement on the similarities?" Barry asks, tapping a finger on one of the furry heads. The ram’s wool is deep green with swirls of light grey. "Pretty," Frankie grunts. "Aww, they're like us. Do we really have to eat them?" Gorgeous George seriously wants to know, his smile big and genuine in his warty face. "Well....we can keep them awhile. Hell, maybe raise a few more, if the natives stay friendly. This isn't a bad spot," you finally agree. In the peaceful lull, you've started thinking again. Time is moving on, generations have passed since the collapse, even new languages are forming among the survivors. You don't know if you'll ever stop regenerating, if the Wimble Gang will ever stop growing. Thank the GenCorp biocenter, Regenerative Therapy, Wing E for that. But it might be useful to learn some things about the new societies forming. And there's surely a thing or two about the old days you all could teach them too, if they were willing. Mostly, things to avoid, you admit to yourself with a rueful grin. But of course there were a few good things too, like the poetry. Some stability would be nice for a change. That heated, buzzing feeling on the bullet wound sure has increased, and the flesh has started pulling in to a big, tight feeling lump over it, already the size of a softball. You all know what it means; in a few weeks, the Wimble Gang will welcome its newest member, who will then need a safe environment to grow for awhile, just like Atticus's own infant. "You feel that, Scout?" you ask the cooing little thing growing out of his left shoulder. "You'll have a baby brother soon!"

I liked Just Some Ordinary Guys a lot! I thought the connection to the smell of the biker with the smell of the teen was a really clever way to connect the past to the present!

I also really like how you make them seem so normal, and then it's suddenly revealed that the bikers are the ones actually regular humans while the Wimble Gang were the mutated ones! That was such a cool twist.

The way the Wimble Gang reproduces is pretty freaky, but hey, at least they're all a family! I was wondering how they would eventually grow the bloodline, but my question was answered in a really unexpected way.

It's so hard being evil!

"You know, I'm not trying to be like edgy or something, because this is like, literally people's lives we're ending.. Buuut, you know if we leave the kids alive, twenty years down line.. like of some of those streaming service shows that used to exist, they might come and fucking kill us for killing their parents, their dogs, cats, etcetera."

I yap to my gang of hardcore fucking lesbian raiders. The Iron Cunts.

My way of words.

Jessica. My star vice bitch in command gives me one of those looks that she gives me when I've talked so long, that it's become a hassle for her to even want to continue to hear.

"Okay, so kill the women and children, right, Edgelord?"

I place my face into my hands. It sounds soooo fucking cringe when worded out loud like that. I have to wave my hand at her excessively just to ease the uncomfortable feeling and tingles that is permeating throughout my body like an uncomfortable scratchy sheet that has long since passed its use-by-date.

"Y-yeah... but like don't be all dramatic when you're doing it."

With that, I awkwardly shoo her off to go and carry out my loathsome orders.

Is it my fault that there's no laws anymore? No. It's the assholes who decided to turn the planet into a shit-filled toilet. I mean, it's a fucking miracle with all of the high tech missiles that flew around to crater things like an obese person's asscheek, that humans haven't gone the way of the dinosaurs. It must have been god's grace, seriously. Trying to imagine a world in which humans just don't exist is just so boring. Humans are the most interesting creatures on earth. Definitely more interesting than turtles.

We're getting sidetracked. Why are the women and children, and dogs, and cats, and pet rats being killed? 

Easy. My morals have always been dubious. Getting in trouble for doing something wrong, like shoving fat Arnie down the stairs while walking behind him in a line in first grade, just because I was curious in how someone with a slight wobble would look falling down the stairs. Unfortunately, that act was way too blatant and obvious, not to mention, Christy was staring at me the entire time. Like why was she staring me at so hard? I got in trouble, detention. 

However, it wasn't remorse I felt while being reprimanded, it was annoyance that I was caught doing what I did. 

Thankfully, in a world where there are no laws, who cares if I am caught doing a bit of killing? 

I ramble. But I move throughout the smoldering town streets. Well, what used to be a town. Cars are overturned and in flames, bodies line the streets as if greeting me in their own macabre way. It's pleasant.  

After some time, I reach the floor which houses principals office. The school ended up being the last stand for this place. Did they even think of the children? I head inside, spotting two of my Iron cunts, Mickie and Janet slacking off, practically hanging off of each other's bodies, and only straightening (ha) when I round the corner and enter the peripheral. These fucking lesbians couldn't wait just a bit more before doing this..?

It's to be expected. They are lesbians. But I am not one. I'm just in charge of a raving group of gun-toting women that are all lesbians. These are truly circumstances that could only be written in fiction, or seen in an adult cartoon before people had other things to worry about, like not being shot just for the hell of it.

"O-oh, boss! We were just securing the perimeter!"

Mickie answers, she's stocky, with short cropped blonde hair. Clearly the top in this relationship.

Janet just hangs in the back, hands shoved in her pockets as she more meekly addresses me with only a nod of acknowledgement.

I sigh. I hold back the exasperation I feel by a tad. These bitches were loose cannons, with loose morals, and looser pussies from the magnitude of plastic they liked to shove in their... No. Let's not complete that. The thing is, it only really took pissing off one of these girls a bit too much for them to just shoot me in the face and grant me a new hole to decorate for my corpse. Because I certainly wouldn't be breathing out of that hole, or at all.

So, although I was the leader of the Iron Cunts, a delicate balancing act had to be followed.

"Yeah, okay. Can you two come upstairs with me..? If you aren't busy, of course."

They both nod their heads enthusiastically.

"Sure thing, boss!"

"Mhm."

And with that, my two girl bosses, and me, the main girl boss walk up the stairs of destiny. Yeah, me using 'girl boss' is more ironic than anything. I want to hate myself even more than I already do. Killing women, children, pets, the elderly, sometimes that's not enough substance to build self-resentment and hatred.

Oh, but speaking of elderly.

"We... we gave you what you wanted, so why?"

The 'mayor' but was one a mayor when his entire town was dead, or in the process of being rendered dead and obsolete. God, the name of this town was eluding my brain for some reason. I went out of my way to kill everyone here and take what I wanted, but I just for the life of me couldn't even remember the name of the town or this man.

So forgetful. Jessica usually had that information anyway.

So, I shrug.

My mind tries hard to remember a reason that Jessica gave as to why I was personally here like some bumbling grim reaper, when I could have been doing anything else. Like trying my best to look busy.

Hey. I formed this currently successful gang of lesbian raiders, I've earned days in which I can just sit in a chair and be a visual representation and figurehead of the group's ideals of fucking over those unable to defend themselves against our bloody might. Timing these things on our periods just made us fight harder, despite all of the annoying shit that came with it.

"Right... so apparently Jess decided it would be more beneficial if we just cut you out and take everything you have. Uh, mister..."

The man's face at first is shocked that his name was forgotten, despite all of the suffering he was now being made to endure. But eventually he finds an ironic humor to it all, and then, he lets out a bitter laugh.

"You don't even recall my name, do you?"

I don't.

"You don't even remember the town that you have currently reduced... to nothing, do you?"

I don't.

So embarrassing.

Mickie and Janet exchange glances that read:

'Holy shit, we're really following a sociopath here! Awesome!'

I offer a small smile in exchange for his suffering.

"That's my bad, not gonna lie. You know, we got others places we're going to do... so it kind of blends together to me."

The mayor's eyes narrow.

"Figures. The world. Many say it's lost away, but there's still room for improvement!"

Suddenly his arm which should have been restrained moves, and he's moving to actually shoot me to death! I quickly try to scramble and reach into my own pocket for my own firearm, but I am no cowboy western gunslinger, so really, it's looking like he's going to beat me to the dra--

BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG, BANG.... BANG.

Overkill. But hey, I still breathe. I turn to offer my thanks to Mickie and Janet.

"Phew, thanks, you two! You really saved... oh.. you guys don't even have your guns drawn. The fuck?"

Suddenly a voice that is quite familiar to me is heard.

"No, that'd be me, boss."

It's Jessica. Who still hods her smoking gun in one hand, before she holsters said weapon. Honestly, if she wanted to shoot me in the head and takeover as the leader of the Iron Cunts, she certainly could have in this instance. She was the brains, and I was the one that was apparently super lucky.

"Oh. Thanks, Jess. Really. I mean, I've responsible for many people dying over some years, but I'm a bit hypocritical that I'd rather I didn't die if I can help it." I shamelessly speak these words.

Jessica's lips curve into something resembling an amused smile.

"Yes. You are a hypocrite. Also evil. Hell awaits us both."

"Hopefully not anytime soon," I mutter. My eyes drift over to the mayor's bullet-ridden corpse. That was too close.

This needed to be addressed before I forget. I need to be stern like a mother here. Despite me being a woman still in her twenties, and absurdly beautiful and charismatic. I mean, who else could get a large group of people to commit wanton acts of destruction unto others at their mere words?

"So, those restraints were apparently not up to snuff! And also, the man still had his firearm? Do you people want me to die!? Because I almost die just now. Which would have been just karma, but fuck that! I want to breathe in this polluted air just a bit longer!"

I read them all the riot act. This is what a leader has to do. In between all of the innocents being killed, property and supplies being taken by force, really, at times, I felt more like a supervisor at a dead-end job. Having to manage adults, talk to them in stern ways, it really was a pain in the ass. But it's what you sign up for if you want to be the leader of the Iron Cunts.

One had to become an Iron Cunt.

Jessica drifts closer to me as I speak, very close, okay, too close...

Fuck. No. No. No.

I can feel her eyes on me. The weight of her stare is intense and feels very gay. It's like she wants me to know that she's eye-fucking me, or something. Unfortunately killing a bunch of people just doesn't wet the kitty for me. Sooner or later, this would have to be addressed, and maybe I'd have to give her a pity fingering.

But I put this in the back burner.

"Ugh. Let's get out of here. I want to drink."

Great story! The idea of a straight girl becoming the leader of an all-lesbian gang of raiders, and then having this complex internal dialogue of self-doubt, questioning, and some remorse was really good. And the part at the end, where you compare being a supervisor at a dead-end job to... well, the gang's name, that was a really funny play on words. Overall, I really enjoyed this story.

It's always hard to critique a story that's meant as a throwaway piece propped up by humor and ironic distaste of what happened in the other thread. At least that would be my opening critique after the introduction of Larry and Barry, but then the story actually became good.

So it's always hard to critique a story that's conforming to the prompt perfectly, offering a twist while at it and balances the plot and pacing in that 2001 (almost perfect) wordcount well. What should I even talk about? The rest of the review would have included thing you could add (mainly how one shambling mass of limbs manages to outpace and completely eradicate a gang of bikers, that's done away with 'uh I don't recall fighting scenes really', but you're already at the max wordcount.

I'd also be intrigued at what just held back society if long enough that a time period long enough has passed for new languages to form (assuming it's not Guy's mutating mind fraying further) but we're still fully in that post-apocalyptic genre.

But the most important thing here is that the short story is both a self-concluding arc and invites curiosity on further stories, just how that shambling mass of limbs could reintegrate and uplift a post-apocalyptic society. Whether it'd grow into a beacon of hope, or that human paranoia will extinguish that light before it was even lit up. Well done.

Oh yeah there's some typo's but pointing those out in detail instead of going for the bigger themes is gay. It didn't detract, so it's good enough for a quick short story on a hobbyist site.

It's always hard to critique a story that's meant as a throwaway piece propped up by humor and ironic distaste of what happened in the other thread. At least that would be my opening critique, but then the Iron Cunts arrived and you got me. The story actually became good.

Perfectly fitting the prompt, and above all entertaining. The jokes hit and the rest don't matter compared to these points. The main thing I got is that I've apparently missed the more artistic first edition of this. That one must've been a true collector's item, even better showing off this totally reliable narrator.

That's all. Well done.

Yeah, both of these stories are exactly what I'd expect from a post-apocalyptic gang leader, and well written at that.

Damn, last second changes must've put me over by one measly word. That's probably also where typos snuck in. I'll go eradicate those later, but word count has been fixed for now. Thanks for the feedback!

I think the answer to how the Wimble Gang beat the bikers was probably by soaking up a lot more damage than I wanted to draw attention to at that point in the story. That fight was where it was supposed to start becoming obvious something was not quite human about them, but not exactly what. (Plus, yeah, the word count.)

I wasn't set on a definite timeline after the war, but I know languages can shift quickly just based on the way literacy can disappear over one generation and how often I have no idea even now what the fuck kids are trying to say.

My original envisioning of the ending once the sheep were offered included some musing on whether the newly emerging humanity societies would strike the gang down as a monster or revere them like a pagan god, or some mixture of both. But there really wasn't room to fit it in so I'm glad what's here raised those kinds of questions anyway.

I would assume the Guys Wimble will eventually be worked into some new mythologies either way, maybe like the Cyclops who have had portrayals both as as helping the heroes start new societies and as violent sheep stealers.

Unless explicitly told otherwise I'm now picturing him going to battle as one big rolling fleshy wrecking ball with perpendicular arms holding guns shooting things at random, more for the noise and spectacle of it than anything else, and the biker's gang being absolute retards for not splitting up and performing a fighting retreat in their vehicles.

With the way the treatment made him rejuvenate and expand from even bullets and acid rains, I imagine him being around long enough to be more than a simple mythology story though. No way he's gonna keel over one day from something as base as old age and people will find out real fast it's better to pay a sheep tribute once a while than go the way of the bikertard.
