She dressed herself up as the only type of indian she knew, big feather strapped around her head, warpaint stripes on her cheeks and beige clothes.
He only wore a cowboy hat and had a plastic revolver tucked behind his belt buckle.
He decided that they would play the game with a little twist, “So, you take your Sally doll, and you have to protect her, while I have to capture her and take her back to my camp to be un-indianized.”, He said while taping a feather on the doll’s forehead and using a red marker to paint stripes on it’s cheeks.
“That’s not a word.”, She exclaimed after saving her doll from being marked for life.
“So you go hide while I count to a hundred.”, He said and started counting right away while covering his eyes.
She ran as fast as her tiny legs allowed and hid her baby inside a big empty flower pot in the back of the yard, she then hid behind a big tree nearby.
“99, 100!” Her brother yelled, he ran back and forth through the yard, “I’m here to take your child!”
There weren’t a lot of places to hide a doll in the back yard so it didn’t take him long to look in the empty pot.
He grabbed the doll by it’s foot and began to run as his sister chased him.
The doll was swinging back and forth with her dress covering her face.
“Let her go!” She screamed,“Piew!”, His little sister yelled.
He then collapsed pretending to have been hit, much like professional soccer players do.
The imaginary pain was unbearable until he figured out something was off, “You shot me?” He asked.
“Piew—piew.”, She continued to shoot him while he was laying confused on the grass.
“Indians don’t have guns.”, he said while getting up again, “And your axe can’t fire bullets, it can only chop.”
She held the axe much like a gun and pointed it at his face, “No, it also shoots lasers!”
“But you’re an indian!” He yelled.
“It’s 2010, indians can have guns too you know.”, She said with one arm on her waist.
“Then why don’t I have a machine gun, or a bazooka!” He exclaimed.
“Because I’m an indian that came from the future to save the last indian princess.”, She explained.
He was getting upset because he technically lost to his little sister, “Princess? It’s a doll!”
“Yes, and by capturing you I have won the century long war between the indians and cowboys.” She explains.
“Well.. Then.. I.. I will self destruct! And take you down with me!” He yelled throwing himself on the grass field squirming around.
“I will scalp you and it as a coaster for me tea kettle.” She said before hitting him on the head with the plastic axe.
She grabbed the droll from his hand and went back inside the house, leaving him behind, defeated.
