Him
Marshall Purcell steered the Jeep Cherokee back onto the dirt road that would take him back to the Interstate. He had almost weakened but then he remembered the Jeffery of long ago; the one his mother had loved instead of him. They were twins, for God’s sake! Why couldn’t she have loved him just a little bit? It had been down hill ever since the day he had caught her in the kitchen with the neighbor man’s dick buried in her. He had tried to tell Jeffery, but he had told her and she had hated him even more. They may have been born on the same day at the same time, but they were nothing alike in her eyes. And Jeffery had used it all to his advantage to get what he wanted. And he was still the same selfish lying little bastard today as he was then. Dad had seen through him, but even the old man had never had guts enough to stand up to Mother. So Marshall sucked the hind tit.
Jeffery had been all for the slight detour to check out the old mine shaft. He was getting paid the same whether he worked or not so a little time on the side was no big deal. John had not cared enough to have a car at the airport, so what the hell! It was a nice drive up the mountain and Jeffery began to relax with Marshall.
“Well, right after we left Oklahoma I met a great woman in Brattleboro. Smart, and sexy as hell. Yeah got myself a son right out of the gate and then twin girls. Judy is a wonderful mother and life is great, but she is kind of busy so sometimes I have to take little side trips, know what I mean?” He winked and laughed.
Marshall Purcell looked sideways at redranger and knew exactly what he meant. And he knew this side trip would be ending up with Meg Paker bagged and bedded before he went back East. Well, it would be over his dead body. Well, not so much his dead body, but there would be a dead body involved, that was for sure.
They had walked up the short incline to the mouth of the mine. Jeffery had always been fascinated with things like this. It was no different now.
“How did you find this place? How far down does the shaft go? We won’t fall in will we? Does it have a barrier? “ And he stayed right behind Marshall.
They entered the mouth of mine and Marsall explained. “ I found this quite by accident about a year ago. It used to have a big fence around it, but it has kind of fallen down over the years. We will be alright as long as we watch where we are going. Here I brought a flashlight.” He switched it on and handed it to Jeffery.
“You carry it and go ahead. I am right behind you.”
They entered the cavern and Jeffery flashed the light from side to side and top to bottom, like a little kid. As they went deeper into the abyss Marshall remembered his first trip up here and a 17 year old kid named something that he had picked up on the highway hitchhiking some where. That was all innocent enough until the kid had reached over and put his hand on his crotch and smiled at him with a mouthful of rotten teeth. His response had been instant and deadly. In three seconds it was over and the kid lay against the door with his neck broken and his eyes staring vacantly at nothing in particular.
Marshall had panicked and drug the kid out the door and threw him over his shoulder. He started up the mountain seeking somewhere to stick the body. The cavern yawned before him and he entered the opening. He dropped the kid on the ground and went back to get a flashlight. Soon all was revealed to him and he had rolled the body over the edge and listened as it bounced off the wall and then a dull thud as it struck the floor of the mine and then dead silence.
His mind jerked back to the present as he watched Jeffery near the shaft. “OK, Jeff, it is right ahead of you. Get down on your hands and knees and crawl forward about 4 feet. Then you can kind of lean over the side and see all the way to the bottom. It is straight down so be careful. Here let me hold your feet to make sure your don’t slip.” He sat down and took a foot in each hand realizing as he did so that they were genuine leather shoes and no doubt very expensive. “So can you see the bottom? I got you bro’, don’t worry.”
He felt Jeff strain a little and then heard him say, “My God! There are bones down there! They look like a human! Ah shit! There arelots of them!”
But that was pretty much the end of that one sided conversation as Marshall Purcell shoved the feet of his twin brother , Jeffery Purcell over the side of the mine shaft, leather shoes and all. A brief gasp, a split second and he hit the wall and then the pause and then he heard the dull thud as he hit the floor. Marshall stood and dusted off the knees of his pants. Then he cursed softly as he realized he would have to buy another flashlight, turned and walked out into the bright sunlight and headed down the hill to the Jeep.
