Group Description
You need to get to New York City. Why? That’s your story. All that matters right now is that you’re in Milwaukee, and New York’s a long way from here. Worse, you’ve got no money, no car and you might not even have a license. Why? That’s your story.
Join some strangers and go on a journey.
(Spoiler alert: This will be no simple trip.)
Chapter One: A New Earth
-
Sherly sighed “Well, I think I can speak for all of us when I say-” they shouted an obscenity at the top of his lungs “This is horrible.” They said calmly.
-
Valarie sighed. “That’s an understatement. This is insane. What are we even supposed to do?”
-
“Well, we can sit around and play on our phones, or we can figure out what the effing universe wants with a bunch of strangers who just so happened to want to go to the same place.” She took a good look at the van. “Think she knows something?”
-
“I don’t even think I want to ask considering what just happened to Sherly and me,” she glances over at the van and can’t help but wonder.
-
Sherly considers this a moment before saying “Well, I don’t want to get killed by relatives because I didn’t show up or even try, so I’m going. Anyone want to come with me in case she’s just a loon & wants to kill?”
-
Well, that was a few thousand dollars lost. Justine Andel leaned her head against the back of her seat and squeezed her eyes shut. Sometimes, it felt like she was getting too old for this, but retirement would hardly be this exciting.
Eventually, she pulled an old flip phone from her pocket and dialed a familiar number.
“Yeah, it’s Andel… No. Those mobsters beat me to it… No, I don’t know how they got the boxes… Christ, calm down… It’s just a bunch of lIon… Okay, bye… Jesus.”
What a waste of time.
Wait, were those kids staring at her just now?
-
He sighed to himself, watching the others going on about the van. At this point he was just considering walking and seeing if he could get somewhere. Its not like anyone would really notice if he left, plus he thought it a bad idea to try and approach the van after what he had seen. Kaito decided to observe some more before seeing if he could go.
-
Summer looks around confused. She whispers to Kaito “Uhm, what to we do…? Do we even do anything..?”
-
He thought for a second before answering, keeping his voice hushed. “I’m not sure myself, Personally I’m worried to approach…”
-
Valarie shuffled uneasily. She has no idea what the woman was talking about but she knew it couldn’t be good. “You guys,” she said blow a whisper, “what’s lIon..?”
-
Sivan exhaled and shook his head a bit before speaking up. “Look, guys– since we’re all going to the same place and have no rides, we gotta do something.” He gestured to the van. “Yeah, maybe she knows what’s up with this.”
-
These kids were definitely looking at her. Also talking about her.
This was bizarre and made her uncomfortable, so she leaned her head out of the window of her van.
“Can I help you with something?” She asked.
-
“Oh yes!” Sherly pipes up “We were just looking at your van & we wondering if you know anything about the lack of transportation to New York or anything.” they said awkwardly.
-
“….” Kaito raised a brow to Sherly, surprised at the fact they would just flat out say that. He decided to keep quiet, hoping this doesn’t end badly.
-
That’s one way to do it, Jayne mused. She supposed that bluntness was probably their best option in this case, as they had already been caught staring at the woman.
