The Continueing Sage of Zack Waverly Vol 6 Page 2

Page 2 Still I couldn't help but wonder what the ruckus was about and I stopped being curious when a single shot rang out I flew through the open door being fast upon my feet but only one was left to see lying still upon the street I walked toward him with caution Kinda sideways, heal to toe I was guessin' he was dead but I didn't want to know As I knelt beside the body placed my ear upon his chest I saw the shiny silver star that was pinned there on his vest That's when the towns folk started coming as they starred in disbelief The men just shook their heads and the women wept in grief Someone said "He must have shot him" While another asked "That's so" and with the look that crossed their face I thought, it's better that I go. To be continued tomorrow same time same place
