Tedd was happy to be back out hunting snakes. The last time he was out, all he caught wasn't even enough to make one bottle of "Wild Snake"let alone dinner. Now that the threat of the zombies had been dealt with by the Guilders, it was "safe" again to venture downhive.
He was back in his favorite hunting spot when he noticed the tracks of a large snake. "A twelve footer", he thought to himself as he carefully followed the tracks to a ruined building. They liked to hole up in the pipes and cracks of such places. As he got his catcher pole ready, he heard it moving around on the other side of a crumbling wall. What he came face to face with was a total surprise to him...
The last time Tedd was gone for such a long time, he came back with a beast of a snake. Enough good skin to brew five bottles of "Wild" and meat for a week's worth of meals thought Harmon. He was hungry and thirsty! "Edga, we got to get this still cleaned up; we want it ready when Tedd gets back!" Edga agreed with a grunt and started knocking the rust off the cooling coils of the still. Harmon kept an ear open for Tedd's return.
Harmon heard what sounded like a person dragging a heavy load. "Go see if thats Tedd and if he needs a hand", said Harmon to Edga. Edga went to the doorway and stopped. "Well, is it him? Does he need help?" asked Harmon. "Well, sorta!", said Edga as he quickly closed and barred the door.
The zombie pushed on the door trying to get to the two men inside. It was hungry and the air was thick with the smell of fresh meat!
