If anyone chose to put on a pair of government high powered Guns known as
SMOKE WAGONS.
They would be obligated to take on any and all challenges.
Made by any and all Zone Rangers in the world.
If they refused it was a death sentence!
Because at that moment of refusal.
A computerized record was made.
The Guns would be self-destructed taking the new holder with them.
Most often times everyone in a block era as well.
If a Zone Ranger smoke wagon fight took place the winner of a Zone Ranger fight standing program number in the world would roll back from One thousand to the next lowest number.
Upon the death of a Smoke Wagon holder, the Counter would automatically reset.
To one thousand were the Smoke Wagons could be picked up by anyone who wanted to be a hero for their country or Zone is known worldwide as a fighter and champion of the New World Order games.
Once the person that picked up the smoke wagons put them on.
They were new Zone Rangers a sample of their DNA was automatically put on a record to be recorded in the main government's computer at headquarters as to its new owner.
If at any time the new owner tried to take off the guns and quit fighting.
He or she would instantly be subject to rule two a refusal to fight.
Well, you get the Idea!
Those were the rules pretty simple.
If you chose to be a Zone Ranger your job was to keep the piece in the Zones around.
You were the law judge jury and if need be executioner.
Your pay was simple you got everything free that you wanted.
Houses cars food women you name it anything.
You were the big show in town that everyone wanted to see but many did not want to be. The Zone Rangers were treated like gods.
Sounds like a good deal right?
So ask yourself why were there only one thousand of these Zone Rangers worldwide?
I did tell you about the downside of the deal, didn’t I?
Well, the downside is other Zone Rangers could challenge you for your Zone number static. The closer to number one you got the more Zones you could travel.
At number one, you were a free man allowed to leave the control of the governments. To be known as a legion and become one of the big guys on the hill.
An untouchable senator or even the one leader of the hole planet. That is if when you got there you could kill all his guards and army men single handedly and take his spot.
Now that was worth shooting for!
That meant gunfights that everyone who was anyone wanted to bet on.
These were really good perks and incentives to be a Zone Ranger in a post-Psychopathic world where crime ran ramped for almost ten years by street gang violence.
School shootings the whole nine yards that the old police state just couldn't keep up with.
As for the military, they were just clean-up crews. Stopping any trophy hunters from stealing items after a Zone Ranger battle.
The Zone Rangers came about after the third world war and the collapse of all world currencies.
The people were mad crazy yet they still loved their sports.
It only left one option. Hire civilians to help fight the bad guys! However, make it a sport that everyone could get behind and support.
So
the world one leader came up with the Zone Ranger program.
At
first, No one came in to pick me up.
Any of the Zone Ranger Smoke Wagons know the rules. The biggest rule was there was no age limit as to who became a Zone Ranger or gender limit.
Anyone who picked those weapons up was considered a Zone Ranger for as long as they could live.
Which could be two hours to months.
Many did not make it for years.
Just the look of the Smoke wagons was enough to stop anyone from trying them on.
The Zone Ranger Smoke Wagon Guns came in two sizes big and bigger.
The first Zone Ranger that came in and took up the Smoke Wagons was a gun nut.
he called himself The Wolf.
So it later became the custom to get a cool name for yourself when you became a Zone Ranger.
It made betting and gambling on your life expectancy more exciting.
There were just a few names that lasted a long time.
The others I will not mention to save a long list of the dead.
Many of those chose to become Zone Rangers in the early days.
Had their Guns costumed out!
Fixed with all the modern weapons!
Missals Grenade launchers Bullet sprayers flame throwers!
Anything to give the Zone Ranger the edge in a fight
Their names are engraved on the handles.
However, as time went on and the Zone Rangers guns changed owners a lot as one Zone Ranger was killed and a new one took his place.
The new Zone Rangers started going with the idea of crazy costumes and all sorts of Smoke Wagon Details things that in my opinion were a waste and made their weapons heavy.
I chose to Just have certain modifications done on mine.
I believed less was more.
One of the reasons I am still alive.
Such as the name changed on the stocks.
However, most of them liked the idea of flash and had their Smoke Wagon Guns
silver and gold plated.
All this made a Ranger slow and his or
her life expectancy was short.
However, he looked fancy well he or she was alive!
We could use our Smoke
wagon Guns on civilians.
However, as soon as we used them in a gunfight with other Zone Rangers
Records were made.
The lower numbers a Zone Ranger had someone was always gunning for them.
It made for good competitions everyone wanting to be a legend!
The day I picked up my Zone Ranger Smoke wagons Guns is when a Zone Ranger killed my best friend for no dam good reason!
That's the problem with some of these Zone Rangers their kill-happy.
They make a mess out of a place because they can the only ones who can stop them or do anything about the bad Zone Rangers are other Zone Ranger
Of course when two Zone Rangers draw down on each other.
All hell breaks loose!
This
always draws a big crowd of gamblers.
People want to watch a Zone Ranger gunfight.
Then
for days, afterward stand around waiting to see who is brave enough
to pick up the dead Zone Rangers weapons.
Ready to cheer him on
ready to see if he has what it takes or if he or she will end up dead
in a few hours.
As I was saying the day I picked up my Zone Ranger weapons was the day a Zone Ranger came into our store.
His name was Crazy Eye.
He was a killer through and through liked shooting people and daring anyone to do anything about it!
Pure evil and outright mean.
His guns were Numbered thirteen.
He
had killed one hell of a lot of Zone Rangers and a lot of civilians.
His reputation was that he had a fast temper and even a faster trigger finger.
People called him Crazy Eye's because one of his eyes seemed to twitch a lot well the other one looked straight ahead and was a different color than the twitchier.
They
said he killed a man once for just asking for his autograph.
Yea Crazy Eye's was as bad as they come.
A lot of Zone Rangers headed the other way when he showed up.
They didn't want to fight him because he played the game dirty.
He was known to shoot people in the back then just laugh at what he had done.
No, they liked the idea of being a Zone Ranger just not the Idea of facing someone like Crazy Eye's.
Of course, if Crazy Eye's challenged them well they had known choice but to fight.
That was the rules the only rules
Well, it so happened that the day Crazy Eye's showed up at our store.
So did another Zone Ranger who went by the name Big Shot Bill!
Big Shot Bill was a well-known Zone Ranger he carried to a huge set of guns with snakes engraved on their side Rails and Handles.
He liked to dress out in fancy tailor made suits.
Let me tell you his guns had it all.
These things looked like an army arsenal on his Hips.
Grenade launchers huge bullets and laser sightings
The Smoke wagons had to be about ten pounds apiece.
When fully loaded.
That's
why they called him Big Shot Bill because when he showed up nothing
was done small.
His reputation for kicking but and taking names was almost as Bad as Crazy Eye's his Smoke Wagons were numbered thirteen as well!
He had just finished off old Bushy Beard a day before.
Of course, that wasn't much of a gunfight.
Bushy had challenged Big Shot Bill just a Block away from the store.
Bushy Beard was kind of new to the game of Zone Rangers and the laws of Smoke Wagon gunfighting.
He just a few days early had picked up a dead Zone ranger weapon by the name of Tomahawk.
It wasn't by a Zone Ranger s hand that Tomahawk was killed.
It was some fool gang member in a motor Car who drove by and tossed a bomb out his car window right at Zone Ranger Tomahawks' feet!
Well, Tomahawk was talking to some guy who was mouthing off. Tomahawk was one of the nicer Zone Rangers. Quick with a Smoke Wagons even better with a workmen’s hand ax he used in close combat in his first fight on some crazy Zone Ranger well they were battling in a hardware store. That’s How he got his name people still tell the story of How Zone Ranger Canon almost had Tomahawk in his sights then Tomahawk grabbed a workmen’s hand ax off the store shelf and planted it center in Zone Ranger Canons groin.
Then took canons own gun and forced it in his mouth and blew off his head. No one could have thought old Tomahawk would have gone out like he did.
When the grenade hit the ground Both Tomahawk and the man were blown to the sky.
Zone Ranger Tomahawks Smoke Wagon guns ended up in the street.
Along with his legs and half of his lower Torso.
They sat there for three days.
Till Bushy Beard came by and put them on.
I think he was hungry half-starved out.
Because after he put them on he went straight over to the nearest McDonald's and eat for a few hours.
Then went and got himself a brand new set of clothing.
For about two days he was living the rich man's life.
Till Big Shot Bill showed up in the Zone.
Bushy Beard's face went ghost white and lost all color when Big Shot Bill called out his name.
He said Bushy Beard I challenge your right to wear those Smoke Wagons guns and call yourself a Zone Ranger.
I want your Zone number!
Bushy Beard turned and knew he was outdrawn even before the fight had begun.
His skinny frail hands could barely lift the guns let alone draw fast enough to even get them out of the holsters.
That was Big Shot Bills' reputation as well.
He always took on those Zone Rangers that were the higher numbers easy new to the game Zone Rangers first-timers.
So he could advance down the chain.
He was what you and I would call a bully.
Bushy Beard tried to pull his weapons However never broke leather.
He realized that Big Shot Bill had already killed him as a nice large hole the size of a silver Dollar was smack dab in his chest.
A thin beam of sunlight shined thou as Bushy Beard fell to the ground dead.
His Smoke Wagons fell off his hips and the number just stayed the same one thousand.
It was Bushy Beard's first and last Zone Ranger fight!
The Zone Ranger smoke wagon guns never got a chance to change their number.
Well as Big Shot Bills guns clicked from fourteen to thirteen!
Usually, big crowds would have gathered for betting rights. However, people knew that was a fool's bet.
No one would bet on old Bushy Beard.
The odds of him winning were slim to none
Now Zone Ranger Big Shot Bill stood there facing Zone Ranger Crazy Eye's!
