News from Pigeon Falls

The little town in my basement where the trains still run, dragons fly, and life is back to normal
Tommy UK found himself back in his room . The last few days seemed like a dream.
First he had been in his room.
Then the man in black came.
Then he dressed in black and suddenly wasn’t in his room.
Then he and the man in black waited in the woods for what the man in black called “ the right time”.
While they waited they sent strange creatures back to the trench but only at night.
Tommy used his ring to push them along.
Then came the moment and the man in black destroyed all of Eino’s lights and cameras.
In pitch black at the end of the trench they waited for the door to open.
When it did both Tommy and the man in black concentrated their power on the door.
From them came a beam of light and suddenly the door exploded and was no more.
Then slowly the trench disappeared.
The man in black said it would never return.
Then Tommy found himself back in his room.
And he still didn’t know much about the man in black.
It could have been a dream.

Wrap UP

I spent the morning looking for six pictures for the next Portrait of Words set. I found them and they will ( I hope) show up on the Portrait of Words sight on Wednesday. I visted all of my active Friends links. I just love it when I have time to read that many blogs. Now I need a breathing treatment.
