I had been sitting in the food court when I was nearly hit by falling boxes. Offering to help triggered an outburst from an angry young woman. "What, you see a cripple and think you have to help? What do you know about handicaps? Why don't you shut up and leave me alone!" she screamed. The entire food court was silent. I didn't respond, just got my cane from a chair where I'd left it. As I was leaving the food court I heard, "Please stop!" The words weren't quite so angry now.
Remember when we had to write a story that started off with this horrible opening line? I do. So I had a bug and decided to use it and have some fun. This is my first foray into sci-fi. Follow along as All the Mick O'Dell's and their Angels work to save the Earth. / (Reviews)
