Coraline Rodriguez,daughter of the wealthy businessman, Damien Richards. She has always been sheltered, and promised the world at a young age. That changes once her father has a sole inheritor and it's not anyone in their family. Her mother was outraged when we had all found out, she cursed his name stating she wished 'he was in hell for doing this to her and their kids'

Coraline was appalled at first, then confused, scared soon afterwards. What would she do she had no money, no job of her own. She believed this will was real, her father had always been the crazy creative type in a way.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas walked up the massive drive way. His cowboy boots "Clicking" on the heavy stone drive way. His spurs "tinging" with every step most stereotypical. The mansion was huge and he whistled in appreciation. He wore a clean if well worn pair of blue jeans. A dark blue button up shirt. Back heavy gloves on both fangs fingerless after the second knuckle. The gun holstered o his hip made you feel like he really was some character out of a western.

His dark blue eyes ran over the large house. It was the most ridiculous thing he's ever heard of in his life. But the Lawyer's were 100% serious. He was now a major stake owner in a major company with more money then god and twice as many dramas.Adjusting his cowboy hat, he raised his right arm. Banging heavily on the heavy wooden door. He was a bit tempted to turn around and go back to Texas. However the old man's will stated he had to stay here for at least three months.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline put her feet under her, a good book at hand. That she wasn't even reading just pretending that way her family wouldn't try to talk to her. The saying if you don't bug the bee and it won't sting you, sadly did not apply to her mother. Who was now yelling at the lawyers claiming her deceased husband wasn't of good mental capacity to think about what he was doing when he made and signed that will. Her mother occasionally coming to her to vent and yell at her, for what she didn't know as she pretended she couldn't hear her. She placed a loose strand of her dark wavy hair behind her ear, just in time to hear a knock by the front door from where she sat in the conservatory.

She looked up shortly to see her sister,Sharon with blonde hair blue eyes. They both shared a glance as her sister walked pass her to the door. Coraline heard the locks unlocking with a click and the door opening.

Sharon opened the door slightly, peeking to see who it was until she saw cowboy boots causing her to open the door a bit more. She smiled at the handsome man in front of her as she leaned against the frame of the door saying,"How can I help you?" A small devious smile floating onto her face, her short shorts and pink chaffon tank top, her eyes hungrily devouring his body as her eyes looked at him closely.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas smiled at the girl, kissing her had gently he said "Well Mam, I'm told this is my house now."

Thomas was somewhat southern but not in a stereo type sort of way. He carried himself with the air of someone who had been through hell and come out the other side. His eyes took in the architecture. The rebel flag belt buckle the magnum on his hip how calm he seemed. Hearing someone ranting abut an inbred redneck taking her money he smirked "I take it she's talking about me."

The Lawyer nodded to him saying "Your Mister Thomas Alexander Hellsing former Ranger, turned Teas Ranger, turned P.I., that sound right?"

Thomas nodded, as he shook the other man's hand saying "I suppose that's my Christian name and I definitely did a tour or two on enemy soil."

The lawyer handed Thomas the offical contract and he signed it easily. The Lawyer mentioning his wife and step daughter's each got a 10% interest off of his accounts and 10% of the stock in his company. Everything else the multiple houses the multiple boats and such were his. Thomas had to sit down as the whole amount of money hit him.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

The only reason Coraline didn't look like her 'mother' was because that wasn't her biological mother. Her father, the deceased,had an affair got her pregnant and Coraline' biological mother died leaving her in the care of the father she never knew at 13 years old. She was a bastard child and when she was left alone with her father's real wife whom she learned to call mother,she never forgot to remind her that, although only when her father wasn't around. Being younger than her half-sister Sharon. She's learned to impassive, never take things to heart but sometimes she slipped.

She sighed hearing her 'mother's voice raise an raise a couple of octaves causing her to place the book that she had been feigning interest in, down. Then she sighed before getting up and going to the room where the lawyer and the man who was the main inheritor was. She had to admit it peeked her curiousity she opened the door. Just to have them take quick glances as she shrugged nonchalantly, her dark wavy hair going up mid-waist. Her bright green eyes, which she got from her real mother, looked at everyone calculatingly as she had a smile on her face. She walked to an empty sit as she was wearing khaki shorts and brown belt with a white tucked in t-shirt shirt with a penguin with a hat on it. As she sat down she saw someone she hadn't meet dressed like a cowboy, she rose once again having her hand out as she said,"Coraline Rodriguez," a small smile on her pink lips. Rodriguez was her mother's last name, she was glad, in a way she didn't have her father's last name.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas smiled and kissed her hand, "Mam, I'm glad to make your acquaintance."

Thomas was built we he was build like a man. Muscles lined his form, strong ad thick. However it wasn't' the sort of steroid induced muscles you saw on "Jersey Shore". Thomas was still lean, built more like a boxer or swimmer then a tank. Thomas was also deceptively dangerous not in a bad way but the casual way he wore his gun. He wasn't' some hot shot trying to scare someone, nor was he a cop who was C.L.E.E.T certified but hadn't' touched his gun since. The face he had shifted ever so sightly so the gun was away from Coraline was a sign a well. He didn't want to make the woman uncomfortable.

Anybody who referred to Thomas as a "Inbred Redneck" wouldn't find out how wrong they were, until he choose for the to. And even then they might not have a chance to react. Thomas smiled charmingly at the long haired green eyed woman, "Well Coraline I suppose I should introduce myself, my name is Thomas Alexander Hellsing the 6th, apparently the sole inheritor of your father's well everything from what I can figure."
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline wrinkled her nose as he stated he was the one who got everything. She nodded her head being polite as she said,"Its nice to meet you Thomas." Just as soon as that ended her mother started her ranting of disapproval stating,"This is a sick joke, I've never even met this man before. How could he-," she put her hand onto her mother. Her eyes saying, 'Your making a fool of yourself'. Hoping that would be enough to shush her up for a while. She sighed deeply her eyebrows furrowing as she looked at Thomas then she questioned,"If you don't mind me asking, how did you meet my father, if you do remember him of course."

She removed her hand from her mother's shoulder looking at the man in question. Her face expressionless beside the small glint of curiousity in her emerald green eyes. As she awaited his answer, she let her eyes scan him taking him in before she meet again with his dark blue eyes. Then she said,"You have very pretty eyes and please don't take that as if I'm coming onto you," as a playful smile made it to her lips as she said that.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas smiled at her, "Thanks, and honesty, the story isn't a big deal."

Sitting down he said, "I have a a small house in my home town, my girlfriend broke up with me, and so I went to my favorite hoe in the wall bar, the old an was sitting their sipping a whiskey, two broken souls chatting up."

Sipping a Mountain Dew the Lawyer had handed him, he said, "We talked about women how he regretted what he did with Coraline's mother, even if he didn't' regret the actions themselves, how he still heard the choppers of Nam sometimes, I told him how I understood both, told him about my wife and our twin boys died in a car wreck going on two years ago now we compared war stories, both in the battle of the heart, and the actual battle field, he said he'd probably swallow a gun if his kids died, I told him I'd thought about it, but couldn't just do it my old lady would kick my ass when I got to heaven and my mother would when I got to hell."

He drank some of the Mountain Dew obviously a bit in shock from how rich he was. He was telling the more personal sides of the story. Shaking his head as he shook off his own demons as he said "We were both a bit drunk, talking about cray ex's we talked well god, probably from opening to the bar's closing. We sat around and drank sweet tea he mentioned his wife made the best he'd ever tasted and I told him I'd love to try it some time. He mentioned he'd been diagnosed with lung cancer, inoperable an thanked me for taking the time to talk to him, I quoted the old Kenny Chesney song to him and he and I laughed about it laughed until we were both crying, I walked home, never through another thing about it."

The Lawyer nodded, "Then three days later, I was contacted told Mr. Smith wanted a full will rewrite, and I was to give this to Thomas when he came forward."

Thomas blinked inside were his license and a few lines of an old song. Unable to help himself he handed it to Coraline laughing a deep echoing laughter. In her father's writing was a simple statement, "You gotta know when to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to walk away, and know when to run."- Time's come for me to run kiddo, take care of my family and I'll take care of yours."
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

She nodded looking at whomever was talking with her hand on her chin. As she grabbed the paper from him, her eyes scanned the paper as she put it down with a sigh. As she ran her hand through her hair,"I'm actually not that surprised he would do this. Considering how he is ....was?" She blinked a couple times feeling tears coming to her eyes, she hasn't had the time to really cry over her father.

Then she stared blankly at the paper seeing her mother reach for it. Then Coraline looked back up at Thomas. She smiles a tight smile as she knew her mother was going to explode soon and she did not want to be here to see it. She gave them a nod of goodbye as she put her hands onto the table getting out of chair saying,"Well I'll be going." She looked to everyone than to Thomas as she directed to him,"Good luck," a knowing grin made it's way to her face as she walked to the door quickly, trying to get away.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas shook his head, a firm almost bruising hand on her upper arm, his tone firm and yet non threatening as he commanded "Stay, and sit down."

Thomas waited until Coraline had sat back down before saying "This shit has got to change, Cora I get it, she doesn't like you can you blame her."

He looked at the older woman, "And you Get the fuck over your issues, does it suck your husband put his dick in someone else, YES, but that girl is the only one is the world who gives a FUCK about your husband besides you now, so what will happen?"

Thomas sat down looking at them he said "You three are family, your all you've got the world sucks, it's cold, and it's hard, an it's cruel, and tomorrow one of you may be dead hell, all of you may be dead so get the fuck over your issues."

Taking a few deep breathes he decided to tell them the truth, "I was working on a ranch outside Galvistan, I was breaking horses, and starving, so I begged my wife to bring me some food, we didn't have much money but I was under weight from my time in Iraq so she agreed."

Knowing that all three of them were looking at him he spoke again "She was hit when a drunk semi driver ran a red light flipped the car a one times, my two six month old twin boy were in the car they survived the impact they didn't' survive the fuel tank igniting and detonating."

The emotion was almost visible in Thomas's eyes. Looking at the three women he said, "You both have reasons to hate each other, I get it, I 100% do, I wanted to beat the drunk who ran the light to death with an aluminum bat, you wanted to save your marriage so you blamed her, you didn't want to be the outcast, so you blamed her, I more then get it."

He looked at both, "But you two were the most important people to my friend and I'll be damned to the deepest darkest rankest pit of Nevermore, before I let you two keep this shit up, you three need to talk, I'll be in the kitchen."

Thomas slammed the doors behind him He knew if he let it the two's relationship would rot and fester like gangrene. They needed to start it healing now. He hoped they'd take what he said to heart, if not he'd have to duct tape them into a closet.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline rolled her eyes, he really thought this heart to heart would get to her well it won't happen. Her 'mother' could rot in hell for all she cared. She huffed in pure frustration and anger as her mother and sister stared dumbfoundedly at the door he just walked out off. She sat up abruptly muttering, "This is total bullshit."

She didn't have a problem with her mother, she just didn't like her nor dislike her. Frankly in simplier terms she didn't care. As she pushed the door opened ignoring the stares as she walked to Thomas. Her face didn't show the anger she was feeling she looked calm, a little annoyed but calm. Her black converse hit the floor softly until she stood in front of him as she said,"I don't care you own this house but don't tell me what to do and expect me to do it. Cause honestly in what world would I listen to a stranger, hmm." Then she turned on her heels ready to walk away when she stopped in her tracks saying,"and don't touch me like that again, its extremely rude."
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas glared right back at her, "Listen here little lady, simple truth is that's a message from your father, he but was too close to the mess to say it."

He locked eyes with Coraline, "Your father told me you'd shut down, that you wouldn't handle his relief, that you'd ignore everyone trying to help you, and the only way to get it out would be to piss you off so bad you couldn't hide it."

He knew the other woman would be angry as he said, "I've got my own issues to deal with, I now apparently own a major company, hell I went from owing on my damn water bill, to have enough petty cash to BUY the water company."

Sitting down he said, "I'll let you do what your want, but I want you to know this, the fact that you and Miss Smith weren't' close was your father's singe biggest regret, you both got saddled with his screw up and he hated himself for it, so am I saying over the woman no, but try because otherwise you'll end up alone, and trust me being alone makes you want to empty a .45 into your skull every waking moment of every waking day."
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline kept her poker face rolling her eyes slightly as she said,"Another speech? Don't you ever get tired of preaching to a brick wall?" She questioned one eyebrow raised as she had her arms crossed across her chest. Then she licked her lips looking away as she laughed softly then she looked back at him her hands going to the armrests of the chair he was sitting on.

She used that so she could bend over her face leveled with his as she looked him dead in the eye,"Alone? I've been alone since Mom died, what's gonna make the difference now? Just because you're surrounded by people doesn't mean you still don't feel lonely." She questioned him once again her head tilting to the side as she looked at him as she remained apathetic. "Hasn't that ever happened to you?," she said still keeping eye contact as her face was a few inches from his.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas rolled his eyes, as he said, "Oh yes, poor Coraline Richards, she had such a hard life grew up beaten and raped in a orphanage, had to sell her boy to not starve, then started in the underground fight pits, her first real memory is a doberman ton up from a dog fight trying to rip out her throat, ending up at a better orphanage but all the other is making fun of or avoiding her for her scars enlist when she's 18, married when she's 20, only wait no, the love of her life and children are murdered and leave her alone again."

Thomas looked at her, dead in the eyes not a single bit of false hood in them. He was less than a millimeter from her face as he said "Oh wait, sorry Princess that was me. You grew up in a house with more rooms then the population of the town I grew up in, with a father who felt guilty and spoiled you and a mother who while she disliked you never raped or beat you."

He let out a bark of laughter, "I'm sorry my life wasn't as bad as yours."

A glint started in Thomas's eyes, "I'll make a bet with you, with all three of you, the three of you survive one month living like I do, just one month I say I never got the notice, all this money all this stuff is yours again, you don't, you can't, you wave all rights to protest the will."
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

"Everyone has their own problems. I've never like the saying 'Other people have it worse' because although it's true.....it is also irrelevant," she said then rolled her eyes when he called her Princess. She blinked, shrugging nonchalantly when he mentioned a deal.

Before her mother jumped at the chance to agree she said,"No I don't want his money," with distaste laced in her voice. "Why would I want something that's not mine," she said rolling her eyes. Once she stopped talking and closed her mouth for a second her mother said,"We'll do it!"

That caused Coraline to roll her eyes once again as she muttered,"Money hungry bitch." Then she put her hand over her mouth chuckling behind it as she bit her lip softly. She smiled innocently, then she stood up patting Thomas on the head. Then she backed away from him a smirk on her face as she started to walk away. Hoping nobody stopped her this time.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas smirked, this was going to be fun.

Six hours later, they were all four at his home. It was a small two room house. A single couch and a T.V. that hadn't' been new since the 80's. Thomas folded out the couch, he'd allowed them to order Chinese food. Since he knew they had an early day the next day. Smirking he set the alarm for three in the boring as he said, "Who wants first shower, it means you get decently hot water, while the last to shower will get to sleep until 5, but the shower will be colder then a nun's vagina."

He gestured to the bed I sort of cheated and grabbed a sleeping bag, part of being poor is you gotta make space, so three of us will sleep together, don't' worry no sex or anything like that, we have to be at the ranch by 6, and we have to catch the bus at 5:45, so we honestly need the sleep."

He crawled onto the fold out and was asleep pretty quickly. But he was a light sleeper. If they tried to ditch out fo the bet and go to a hotel room then they were giving up early and he won the bet.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline stared at the room her eyes falling onto the place where their supposed to sleep she sighed. Nobody every listens to me, she thought, I didn't even want to do this but no. She sighed, this was a disaster waiting to happen.

All of a sudden when she was walking to the kitchen, she was pulled into it by her mother and sister. "What the hell is your problem?!," Coraline said in a high whisper. Her mother ignored her as she began talking,"Girls, we need a game plan. There's no way I can survive here for a month." Coraline stared at her,"Then why did you agree to it " Coraline added, clearly frustrated. Her mother then stated,"I can't do this but that money belongs to us. He stole our money right from under our noses and we can't do a thing about it."

Coraline laughed humorlessly saying,"Unless he becomes infatuated with one of us and marries that person then I don't see how that's gonna happen. Besides-" she was interrupted by her mother as her mother said,"That's a brilliant idea." She embraced her in a hug which made Coraline go rigid. Then the mother said to both of the girls "I'm to old to do that but you two have a chance." Their mother smiled evily, Sharon and her mom left Coraline confused in the kitchen as she finished what she saying,"-that would never happen."

She ran her hand through her hair finding her mother and sister asleep, she didn't feel tired. She always had trouble sleeping in strange places, so she opened the door quietly hoping no one would hear. Then she shut the door soft and she walked onto the porch steps and sat down staring at the stars.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas ha gently slid out of bed, watching Coraline. He didn't figure she was a runner, the girl's life may not be that bad, but he figured this wouldn't be her "Oh hell bail out bail out". Honestly while the sleeping together thing was award as hell Thomas doubted any of the women really realized what they were in for yet.

Thomas spotted a group of red clad young men moving towards Coraline. He smirked and even before they' said a word to the introvert he said "We have a problem gentlemen?"

They were looking at the scars, people like them always did. Scars from a grenade that had gone off a bit too close. Scars from the Humveee explosion he was trying to drag a friend from. The massive burn marks across his chest had put his life in danger but now they were a useful tool. That and the .44 Smith and Wesson Magnum tucked into the front of his pants. The bangers back off and he smirked, "Smart move boys."

As the bangers walked away he took the gun out and handed it to Coraline, "Keep this nearby, this isn't Beverly hills had they gotten a hold of you not nice thing would have happened.". Sighing he said, "I'm going to need to teach you, your sister and probably your mother how to shoot huh?"
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline's eyes moved from Thomas to the men that had been walking over her. This seemed to remind her of a western showdown which caused her to smiled, amusingly. Once the men scurried away she released a breathe she hadn't known she was holding. She licked her lips muttering a,"Thanks." She grabbed the gun eyeing it.

She shrugged placing it onto her lap nonchalantly,"I know how to shoot a gun." Then she looked back up at the stars, the night sky was so much better in the middle of nowhere. She smiled slightly,"I used to go to the shooting range." Then she shrugged stretching her legs as she used her hands to hold her up. She turned to her head to him, she caught sight of the scars eyeing them for a bit before she looked up to his face meeting his eyes.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Thomas smirked, as he yawned "I'd get some sleep if i was you, tomorrow's a long day."

Far too early morning came, and the group was awoken dressed and soon headed on an over crowded bus to the ranch. Arriving at six Thomas waked up to a large picnic table grabbed a few biscuit. Looking at them he said, "Coraline, why don't' you collect the eggs, take a few of the egg cartons shine a light with them if nothing's black inside them put them in the cartons."

Smirking he said "Shannon you can flip the waste pile it's mostly organic food and hey, I wouldn't' shove your face in it but the smell shouldn't be to bad at this point."

Looking at the older woman who was still only 30 or so he handed her an axe, saying "Go with big Jim and Tom we need some planks so you three are going to cut down some trees and so help me if you make them o all the work then your giving up on the bet."

Thomas went to ride a horse along the posts see which ones needed to be repaired and such. As he left the girl's to enjoy their breakfast one of the ranch hands said, "Wow Thomas really has mellowed the last few days, normally he'd have all this done already by the time we get here at 5."

The woman who owned the ranch/farm chuckled, "You know I heard he inherited big money, just like the almighty to torture that boy with that, given what he's going through NOW he gets rich."
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline woke up tired as she stretched yawning, ready as she will ever be for the day to be begin and end.

Once they reacjed the farm, she sat down eating. She wasn't gonna complain with a eoof over her head and food, nothing to complain about. She changed her mind once she heard her sister groan plopping herself down. Then she started to complain,"Why does Cory get the easy job and we get the hard ones."

Sure Coraline herself found it a bit unfair but she wasn't gonna complain. She rolled her eyea slightly finishing her breakfast, she thought she would explore before she did her job. Okay that was a lie, she got lost and was kust looking around trying to find where she was supposed to go. She sighed looking around once again. I think I'm going in circles cause I just passed this tree, she thought.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

One of the farm hands laughed at Shannon as he said, "It isn't an easy job chickens scratch every so often one of the boys has to get stitches in the main house, I think Thomas i hoping Coraline's natural calmness will allow her to avoid the worst of the scratches and pecks just remember Coraline if they go for the eyes cover your eyes."

The man smothered a biscuit in honey saying "And I'm sure he'll rotate the jobs around if you three last long enough, he gave you thee pretty much idiot proof jobs."

Later on one of the farm hands noticed Coraline looking confused. The man snorted and said "Come on city girl." The farm hand lead Coraline to the small chicken house. The cargo containers were twenty pounds each. And an arm full putting it down he showed her how to check the eggs. Going back to his work he froze a massive rattle snake was coiled nicely into the crack between the roosts and the wall. The and let out a swear moving backwards the snake was on alert just waiting for anyone or thing to get close enough to inject with it's venom. The loud echoing "CRACK" of a rifle however and the snake' head exploded. the farm hand nodded in thanks as Thomas appeared. A Winchester lever action rifle in a holster on the horse he was riding's side. The man nodded his thanks again as Thomas said, "Just be glad I was nearby to check on Coraline."

The man waved goo bye and all but ran off. Thomas smiled "When your done and as many of the crates are as full as you can get them carry the full egg crates back to the main house, they'll weight a hundred pounds or so each try to hurry lots more chores to do."

Thomas got back on his horse, after picking up the snake Smirking he said "I might see if the farmer's wife wants to mix this in with the stew."

Soon he was riding off back towards the main house. The heat rose quickly and within an hour it was 80 degrees in the hen house.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Coraline smiled at Thomas putting her hand up to block the sun. Then she stepped into the hen house her Doc Martens crushing the hay underneath her feet. She looked around putting her hair up and placing the flashlight onto the loop of her belt. She smiled at the chickens then she went to one that was sleeping, her hand holding it's wings down. She put it off to the side as it was still asleep, grabbing the eggs and putting the chicken back. She smiled victoriously, putting the light to the egg. Once it was clear she put it into a cartoon, which filled a crate. Then she carried it where it was supposed to go. That's how her day went, it was quite soothing not having to deal with people just animals.

She wiped her forehead with the back of her hand picking up another crate as she put it down for a short break. Her muscles throbbed from the excess use of them. She ignored it her eyes squi.ting up at the sun as she took a deep breath of the air, completely at peace is what she felt.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

A few hours later Thomas was yawning as he rested at the table by the main hue. He'd sent Shannon to hep her mother He half expected Coraline was taking more tie then necessary but working your hands made thinking both easier and harder. He wasn't going to push her. He knew the women were trying an honestly he'd found a bit of respect for them. He knew they weren't having fun but at the same time they were moving and learning and earning sometimes you had to work with others. The second morning chore he'd arranged for Coraline was miking the cows. Even as he new her mother and sister would be seriously hardcore sweating tree cutting was a pain. One of the few thins he didn't do unless he had choice. Then the bark had to be stripped and made into planks. Thomas knew they had enough planks for now, but in an emergency having extra never hurt. He also had a plan for the afternoon replacing the damaged posts.

Meanwhile as a favor to him the farmer's wife was working the snake sin into a leather belt. A holster and sheath added. He figured Coraline would like it if for no other reason it would annoy her mother. You really did need a knife on the farm and a gun was always useful all the farm hands carried knives.
 
RE: In My Eyes [Coraline:)&&ThomasRHellsing]

Once Coraline was finished taking the last crate in of eggs, she walked to the main house her arms swinging as she practically skipped. When she made it to Thomas,"What do I do now?"

He then ended up taking her to the cows with a bucket. She stared at the cow and it's nipples dumbfoundedly. The bucket underneath and a small chair next to the cow, she looked up to Thomas with a sheepishly smile,"How do you milk a cow?"

As she chuckled nervously her hands behing her back as she had a small smile. Then she looked to the cow. "Besides what's the cows name I can't be feeling up n animal whose name I don't even know," she said playful smile on her face.
