[Not responding how -]

Permalink

And now Vivian is not responding either.

Permalink

[Telepathically and physically and now Vivian's gone too!]

He tries contacting her more – and then anyone else he knows was in the same truck? His mom, does she respond – anyone else?

Permalink

Nada.

Permalink

Crap. [They've all gone unresponsive –]

Permalink

[Ask Michael to try to look for them -]

Permalink

[– Michael where are the other trucks, the others, can you tell me?]

Permalink

 

 

 

[- going somewhere—what's going on where are they going why is everyone unconscious in the trucks -]

Permalink

[Even the drivers?]

Anthony tries contacting Vivian again.

Permalink

[No, the drivers are awake -]

Vivian is still unresponsive.

Permalink

Still unresponsive if he tries them?

Permalink

Yep.

Permalink

To Dayo: [Drivers are awake and unresponsive, everybody else is knocked out, I have no idea what to do except call them lost –]

Permalink

Dayo, of course, tries to not look panicked lest he panic the other kids, but: [Fuck fuck fuck—are they not with the resistance—were they double agents or something—?]

Permalink

[I have no idea and I'm worried about our own driver — should we get someone else behind the wheel, not that they'd know where to go?]

Permalink

[I... think if our driver were in on it we would be the ones knocked out. But.]

Permalink

Anthony surveys the van. [Don't suppose we're somehow more – important, collectively, strategically useful? Or the opposite?]

Permalink

[...well you are. But the Leader can do everything we can do anyway.]

Permalink

[I'm trying to find some sort of motive, reason our van would be fine or would appear to be so – maybe some sort of test?]

Permalink

[Is there anything we can do? We don't know where the place is, if our driver is okay then we're okay and if he's not we're fucked anyway.]

Permalink

[… I was going to say 'at least we're out of the compound', but without the safe house protections… that would appear to be the case.]

Permalink

[...so we just wait and hope.]

Permalink

 

He tries not to look too visibly shaken.

Permalink

 

 

He slips over to where Anthony is sitting and wraps an arm around him.

Permalink

Anthony leans into the hug.

He tries for Vivian a few more times.
