Flight of Masks

 

Well, we left.

And…Dear God everything went even more insane than usual.  Remember me mentioning those weirdo masked guys?  Apparently, they have powers. 

It started with us leaving the house. As it was my house, I already got all my clothes, underwear, bras, all that.  Though Al advised leaving out the toothbrush because water’s probably going to be scarce and brushing teeth would be considered abit of a waste.

Anyway, we hit everyone else’s houses for their clothes and meds before we started for the city park.  During one of our trips to get more kerosene oil for Mom’s lanterns (which we’re bringing a couple as flashlights aren’t a guaranteed light source anymore) when Hal and I overheard others venturing out that people were getting together and getting the hell out of town.

We told Al and them and we decided to join them.

I can’t say it was a mistake because we were still able to get away, but Holy shit…We get to the vehicles, mostly consisting of some trucks, a couple busses, a few hay trucks, and the rest were personal vehicles that still worked.

Thing was, when we were about to decide which truck or bus to get into, people to the South of us started screaming.  Looking over, we saw it was the masked guys, but when a person looked away, they somehow TELEPORTED!  Teleported!  Like they were those weeping angels from that Doctor Who show!

You can bet we all ran as fast as possible, with Al taking out his gun and shooting at the masked guys.  A few others began shooting them too, making sure many of us got into trucks and buses. 

I lost sight of the Hepburns and Alicia.  I think they got into a bus while the rest of us got into a van.  There’s a guy driving right now, has this weird Omega sign on his jacket and keychain.  But he’s pretty friendly.

Al, Hal and I are kinda smushed with five others, but it's okay.  We're somehow driving through a massive redwood forest, which doesn't exist anywhere near my town, like, at all.  A guy in a black shirt mentioned that the trees didn't look right.  And now he mentioned it, the trees do look weird.  But at least they aren't those weird masked assholes.

I'm going to try to sleep abit.  Laters.
