You've been through a
lot, but you're not total scum. Sure, Pete made you face a
thousand horrors across the globe to find his hobo-treasure, then
threatened to kill you just because he had a change of heart about
giving it to a complete stranger... but now that he's dead, it's kind of
hard to stay mad at him. You know where the real treasure is now, so you
might as well take a moment to give him a proper burial.
Why! It's a can of
WD-40, just like it said on the map. Pete had a funny taste in details.
A sane person might've marked down "rattlesnake colony" or "ravine full
of sea urchins". You pick up the can and read the list of applications.
Cleans, lubricates, protects... Ah! There we go. "All-purpose embalming fluid: WD-40's handy-dandy instant
hardening compositive can simply be sprayed on the skin to provide
instant preservation for those embalmings on-the-fly!" Great. You give
Pete a full dosage, spraying him from head to toe until the can is
empty. You walk away to collect your shovel, absently marveling at the
other functions WD-40 offers... displacing moisture, cleaning off rust,
raising the dead and providing them with supernatural strength and the
gift of flight, dissolving adhesives...
A scream wells up from deep in your throat. Dropping the can, you turn and run, run, run... but you forgot he can fly now, dummy. From the sky, Pete's hungry corpse crashes into you. You have only a second to stare into the fiery lights of hell in his eyes before he lunges and rips out your throat with his dried-up gums. But let's be honest here, you were asking for it, Mr. Bleeding Heart. START AGAIN, EL COMPASSIONATÉ!
