[Roleplay] The Rebuilding - Continuation of The Aftermath

[Naiad]

(( I didn't even know they were in the same room O_O ))

"You said it yourself, Mitch's people work here. I can help you if you get confronted."

(( edit: o I get it))

 

[Myst]

"Sai, it's fine. I can buy my own booze. Just wait in the car please."

 

[toxapex]

"Yeah, Sai. It's dangerous here." And we're not even sure if he's still one of Mitch's people...

 

[Beary]

I doze off in the car.

I fall asleep on my bed, not even under the covers.

 

[Naiad]

I sigh. "Fine, just don't get hurt."

"So, how're you?"

 

[Myst]

"I-I'm fine... just a bit sleepy..."

I walk Sai back to the car before walking into the store alone.

 

[Naiad]

"Good, a lot's been happening here. You're better off where you are."

 

[toxapex]

I walk back to the car AGAIN and get in.

 

[Myst]

"I guess... I just miss everyone... Mostly Helix..."

(Gio should ask why she faked her death/hid this from the others.)

 

[Naiad]

I sit down in the drivers seat. "So, Helix. Any interest in video games?"

"I guess... I just miss everyone... Mostly Helix..."

(( I'm not even sure that he knows she's dead tbh ))

 

[toxapex]

"Nah, they didn't have those where I grew up. Never played one."

 

[Myst]

I grab 3 cases of beer then walk over to the check-out. As luck would have it, it's someone I know.

"Blaze! Heard ya almost got arresting for murdering a guy. How'd that go?"

I mutter, "It's nice to see you too."

"Just remember, the boss won't be out for you if you screw up this time. You can always rejoin if you want. I can't believe you left. You were our best man." At this, everyone starts to stare at me. Some even begin to pull out a weapon.

"Well, this has been nice but I have to go." I quickly throw the cash at him, grab my beer, and run out.

The cashier shouts, "This isn't over, Blaze! We will get you! One way or another!"

I rush to the car, open the passenger door, and sit down. I put the cases of beer by my feet. "Alright, let's go."

 

[Naiad]

"Gio'll hook you up. He's always been into games."

I watch as Blaze rushes into the car. "You alright?"

 

[Myst]

I sigh. "I'm good. Let's go."

"I guess... I just miss everyone... Mostly Helix..."

"So... want to talk to Mace again?" I look over at Mace.

 

[Naiad]

I start the car. "What happened?"

- - - Post Merge - - -

"Yeah, just give him my conditions, I guess."

 

[Myst]

I explain my run-in with the cashier, including how guns were being pointed at me as I left.

"Okay. I guess I'll see you when you come." I hand the phone back to Mace.

"So... what'll your answer be?"

 

[Naiad]

I sigh. "I never knew it'd be so hard to survive." I glance at him. "Are you sure that you aren't hurt?"

I drive out of the parking lot.

"Yes, on a few conditions. Sage'll tell you what they are."

 

[Myst]

"Eh... that's life. I didn't think they would find out that fast... or that they would react that way." I sigh.

"Sounds good. I'll have my people arrange a flight for you tomorrow."

 

[Naiad]

I sigh again. "It's just not safe anymore...... You can still stay with me. Helix won't mind. Right, Helix?"


"Hold up, a flight? I'm a college student."

 

[toxapex]

"Oh, you have more than one guest bedroom?" I ask. I guess he can stay, but I thought they only had... one... F**k...

"Oh, uhm... Sure." I put on my best fake smile.
