Andy pulled his police car behind the van, noting the out-of-state plate. The woman was sitting beside it, looking through binoculars. Andy glanced where she was looking but didn’t see anything of interest.

“Howdy, ma’am. Watcha searching for?” he asked.

“Good morning, sheriff,” she answered without lowering the binoculars. “I don’t know yet, but I will when I see it.” She lazily scratched her side, causing her bare breasts to jiggle. Despite his best efforts to remain professional, Andy felt his cock stirring.

“I see,” he answered. “Is there a reason you are sitting there naked?”

She grinned. “It beats standing. Besides, I’m not naked,” she said. “I’ve got my swim fins on.”

Andy started feeling uneasy; something was off about this woman. He walked closer and said “Ma’am, you’re going to have to come with m…” He never heard the ringing sound the shovel made as it smashed into his head.

She jumped up in shock, staring at the gangly man standing over the sheriff. “What the…? Are you trying to kill him?”

“I hope I did! I’m tired of living in his shadow!” the man exclaimed. “He’s still breathing, though.”

“Okay, good. Put him in the van and we’ll go rob that bank you told me about, Barney.”

210 Words. I probably will donate to the relief effort, but I don't know when I'll be able to or how much.

  5. Well done. The Mayberry reference was awesome, gave it a fun twist.

    Is it just me or are most of the FFF's pretty violent this week?

  6. Thanks, Kat. It's not just you; we Americans are gearing up for our annual day of animosity and hyper competitivness, otherwise known as Thanksgiving dinner with our families.

  7. I can't imagine Ellie May sitting naked by the side of the road... Wait, on 2nd thought, I imagined that all the time....

    I love making references that tell me hold old my readers are. If you made a "One Direction" reference I'd probably ask if they were InSync. :-) Thanks for joining in today, Fun story!!
