Back in Wichita

We were living on the east side of town, we had about 5 acres of land with mostly trees. It was a great place to build forts and tree houses. There was an old well house out back that had a 80cc Harley inside. Yeah it was in pieces and yeah I didn't know what a harley was back then but it was fun trying to put it all together. I had a new BB gun and the house had no central heat or air. We had one of those window units that has the cardboard on both sides for filler. So I'm outside looking for something to plink on with my new gun, this one was one of those you could pump and shoot pellets with. Hey! I thought looking at that cardboard next to the air con. I found a nice black marker and drawed my target, the circles were near perfect. Back on the other side of the yard I pumped that gun twenty times and took aim. POW, bullseye I thought but wait whats that? ARRRGGHHHHHHHH... Out of the house with a flash and a gun comes my older step brother. Whats he doing I think? Hes running towards me, and hes shooting at me. So I'm off like a flash through the woods to the fort I go. Hes hollering "You shot me!" I'm thinking, no I didn't... Ah... engrams
