Mad Max

Been a week since Max finally let me out.
Whole stinking week.
And only now does he uncuff me?
Now, while being viciously attacked by a roadkill-gobbling, piss-swigging, camel-fucking, chainsaw-wielding creature in a pair of cracked aviator glasses and shit-stained overalls who calls himself “The Flight Navigator”?
Or herself.
Hard to tell underneath all that shit…
Dumb fuck, Max is.
Dumb, incredibly lucky, Fuck.
I open the handcuffs with the keys he throws me.
I get in the car.
Then I hit “The Navigator” with it.
The creature soars through thin air, spilling guts like confetti.
“Have a safe flight.”

Saw it standing by the edge of… Well… ain’t no real road here to speak of.
Only tracks in the red red dust.
Tracks we inherited
From our former selves.
Dutifully trudging along
I saw it there, standing, barely standing.
White, serious face
Defiant mouth
Starved-out eyes
Scrawny, boyish frame swaying in high desert wind.
Used to be a man.
A better man.
Would’ve cared
Before
Would’ve trusted
Before
Only tracks in the dust
Now
I am hollow, eroded by time
Now
I am a half-life man.
I survive.
Seemed smart
To lock him in the boot of my car.

Fuck me twice with a tire iron, this dumb fuck ain’t exactly fucking around the bush, is he?
What did he do that for?
He goes and…
Then just keeps staring at me with those dumb, fucking, green-and-rust eyes and I...
All I demand
Want
Pray for
Is a reasonable
Comprehensible
No-nonsense sound…
Tough luck.
Not a blasted peep.
Dumb Fuck’s prob’ly Feral.
Just keeps staring at my confusion, then slams the boot of the damn car shut and here I am - cold, tied up nice and neat, and no stars to navigate by.
Where to now?
Still no light.

Furiosa si pamatovala dobu, kdy byla Australská škola čar a kouzel plná zeleně. Tenkrát byla malá holka, mohlo to být snad i dvacet let zpátky. Nikdy by ji nenapadlo, že se vrátí zpátky jako učitelka obrany proti černé magii. Jenže Strážkyně ji potřebovala. Nejen s Citadelou se dělo něco špatného, zlo přišlo i na poslední bezpečné místo.
Furiosa byla sice unavená bojovat, ale nepřestane, dokud Nadsmrťas Joe nebude i se svými Vlčáky poražen. Vzal jí rodinu, vzal jí zeleň, ale nevezme jí místo, které dříve nazývala domovem. Ve škole je něco zkaženého a ona udělá všechno proto, aby to napravila.
