Today's freewrite was actually Sunday's freewrite courtesy of @mariannewest is "Have you tried the museum?"

---

It was a grand building that dominated the street. An ornate sign in front showed that it was the National Museum of Anthropology. Inside, all was quiet.

Outside was a different story. Dressed in all black so as not to be seen, the intruder approached one of the old windows, hoping to find a way in. Security was lax here, for they didn't yet know the value of their most recent acquisition.

As he peered in, he saw something. A man was standing behind the glass, with a rifle. He wasn't expecting this, who was this man and what did he want? The thief was about to move away, but the man spoke, "Stop right there!"

The man stopped and cocked his gun. This was his last move. His only chance of escape. He needed to act fast. If he moved forward he was sure to be shot, so he simply stayed where he was. The man spoke once again, "Who are you?"

This time, the thief spoke up, "My name is not important, the most important thing is what you are doing here, can you explain to me what you are doing here? What are you after?"

The man continued to point the rifle at him. "Tell me who you are before I shoot you."

– About Me –
I like the same things as most other people, animals, gardening, cooking, travelling, photography, art, TV, music and films which is probably what I’ll write about most. I talk and swear too much and am always noticing things that I should not be noticing.
