Bailey's Safe Place(Barder Short Story)

It was a windy Tuesday afternoon in Witchataw, Kansas and Barder and Bailey were off on another adventure. It was just two hours earlier that Bailey had discovered his long forgotten orange turban. He had discovered it underneath a pile of rubbish in his room and instantly he felt all the excitement that the turban had once brought him.  He grabbed Barder and by the look in Baileys eye, Barder could only fathom the grand adventures they were about to embark on. Bailey lept with as much strength as he could muster up onto Barders back, knowing instantly they would take flight above all the track homes and tumbleweeds that Witchataw had to offer. Bailey breathed a sigh of relief because deep down this was the safest he had ever felt. Safer then at home is his racecar bed with the covers tucked up to his chin. Safer then at school with all of this friends and his favorite teacher Mrs. Cadua. Safer then curled up in his mothers arms reading a book. This time it was different, this was where he was meant to be!

Neophite 0029

It has been a stressful and eventful day for the young and once fresh faced assistant interior designer, Pisces Kilamanjaro. He recently locked into a three year internship with  Darth & Bendel as an assistant to the most acclaimed modern interior designer from Norway, Burnaby Eggebraaten. Eggebraaten is a demanding, stuck up elitist, with high hopes of becoming the number one Tegner of Kongsvinger, Norway. 
On this particular Monday evening, Pisces was forced to work threee hours later than his intial internship agreement entailed. asusual Eggebraaten had a complete and utter disreguard for other people and demanded Pisces stay and help him work on his newest creatio, Renvasket curcuit, which is a skyscraper made entirely out of old fashioned, refurbished film reels. Pisces job was to paint and clean each and every last film reel used for the building. 
This was an unusual task for Pisces because under normal circumstances  he was referred to as "coffee boy or "neophite 0029." And although he felt honored for the sudden surge of imortant work coming his way he secretly wants to quit his job as coffee boy at Darth & Bendel and go after his true aspirations as a male model for Dolce and Gabanna.  For now the sterile white walls and glass water coolers at Darth & Bendel will just have to suffice.
