AnonymoussaidSo, last night was interesting.. I've been on the road for about a month now, and truth be told.. I'm tired. I think I've traveled far enough now that Abric won't be able to track me down anytime soon, so I figure this place is as good as any. I think the town is called Hathian, and while it isn't the nicest area.. it'll do for now. I spent a few hours scouting the city, trying to find a good enough spot to sleep in that seems reasonably safe. The rooftops always work out best for me.. underneath bridges or overpasses are usually taken up by the hobos, and alley's are dirty and dangerous. Higher ground seems like the best option. I ended up finding some auto shop that had a Coke machine I was able to get up on, then to the roof from there. It's still unseasonably warm out, but I don't think that'll last for long, and I think it's supposed to rain in the next day or two, so I'll probably need to find another spot. I really don't want to find a shelter cause I hate sleeping around other people. Maybe I can find an empty warehouse or even an actual house that someone's moved out of. Met a girl who seemed pretty cool when I stopped into a bar. I think she said her name was Inara, or something like that. From what little bit I talked to her, I got the impression we have a similar story.. I think she might be on the streets, also. She said something about being able to stay in the basement of the place sometimes, at least for a few hours. They have some mattresses down there, I guess. If nothing else pans out I supposed it's something to consider, once winter hits. Hopefully I'll have better luck than that, though. I saw a few help wanted signs posted up around town. Maybe.. As for the interesting part.. I was out walking around late in the evening and overheard two girls talking about possibly jumping some guy. One of them mentioned that he talked like a pirate, which made me curious enough to stop and listen in, for a bit. I think they said his name was Crow.. or maybe that was the name of a gang. I couldn't really pick up on that part. I followed them once they went to go find him- just to see what would happen. I wasn't going to get involved and if anything, I was considering helping them out. When I caught up to them again, one of them was across the street texting on her phone and the other was hiding behind some bulldozer parked next to a building. The guy they were after was on the sidewalk, talking to some girl. He reminded me of Jeriko. I wasn't expecting that.. they were right, he did sound sort of like a pirate. And there was something about him that I found fascinating. Out of impulse, I started walking again and passed him.. stopped long enough to whisper that he was about to get jumped. I think the girly he was talking to got pissed- she said something to me. Maybe she thought I was trying to step in on her guy, I don't know. I passed on the warning, and just kept going. When I looked back, the girl with the knife was coming up to him. I kept going. Wonder if I'll see him again. Kinda hope so. I'd like to know more about who he is. |
