A long way to Baby-lon
“Katherine Sue ya’ll liddle tease, dere aint no draggenon anywhere!” Said Billy as Katherine Sue whispered something in her ear.
“But a’ did, a’m serious, dere is e’ dragon right above our hades!”
Billy stopped the car and she pulled Katherine Sue out of the old, 1970 Ford. Billy pointed at the sky to prove there was no dragon, and Katherine Sue was surprised to see the dragon had vanished.
“Say, dere aint no dragon anywhere Kathy Sue!” Billy proved, and she got back in the drivers seat. Then suddenly, Kathy Sue saw the dragon behind a sign nearby saying: Last exit to Babylon. She ran over to her friend and pointed at the sign.
“Billay, it right dere Billay, you have to come say, it right dere!” Kathy Sue tried, pointing at the sign.
“What’? Dat Baby-lon sign is de draggenon?” She asked.
“No, dat aint no dragon. De dragon is hiden’ behond it, don’ yah say it?”
Billy rolled her eyes and shut the door of the truck.
“Dere aint no draggenon here Kathy Sue, so ya’ better get back in de car before you go too insane.”
Kathy Sue sighed and got back in the truck. She was for certain that she saw a dragon, but her friend didn’t seem to notice it whatsoever or just tried not to see it. She looked out the rear mirror by her window watching the dragon drag behind like a dog following it’s owner.
“Am’ tellin’ ya Kathy Sue, dere aint no draggenon, now stop starin’ out dat win’ow!” Billy said, her eyes still on the road.
“But a’ say it as well as I say you Billay, I don’ un’erstand wha’ you can’ say the dragon, I’s right the’!”
Billy sighed and decided she was going to have one last look out the window. Instead of seeing the dragon she saw another car wanting go past. She pulled over and as the car passed by the dragon moved over to follow behind the car. Once it was above that car as it passed by, Billy nearly screamed in shock.
“Oh my word, deres a draggenon over dat conver’able car, dere’s a draggenon over dat car!!!!” Billy cried, pointing at the dragon.
“No do ya’ believe may?”
“A’m sorra’ I doubted you Kathy Sue, I just di’nt say it. I’ was almos’ like i’ only revealed i’self to some, and it jus’ decided to le’ may say it after it left.”
“Wale, a forgive you Billay, but de dragon is still over our car, dat wa’ a different dragon.”
“So dere’s another one, and i’ righ’ above our hades?” Billy asked.
“Yep, but now dat you know i’s up dere, i’s now diving down to eat you uup. Because it aint din’t want you to fand out!”
“But you are de one dat told me abou’ it, i’s your fault!”
“Den ge’ drivin’ Billay, or you’ll ge’ eatin’ for good!” Kathy ordered.
Billy quickly turned the wheel and sped towards the exit towards Baby-lon. As soon as they drove through the exit the dragon moved on down the highway for another victim, and they never saw de’ draggenon ever ‘gain.
“But a’ did, a’m serious, dere is e’ dragon right above our hades!”
