>After a quick meal and a rest, you're approached by one of your rescuers
"You came from Cleveland, right?"
"That's right...took about a day and a half but we got out."
"Well, you're lucky we came along when we did. Your boat was in pretty bad shape."
>You glance over your shoulder an notice that your boat has begun to sink
"Yeah...it really was..."
"Anyway...we're running around looking for survivors. There's a shelter in Toledo. We'll take you to Erie. There should be others there to help you."
"Thanks. We were headed to Erie, anyway."
>After two more hours, you finally reach land
>There are refugees and volunteers everywhere
>Some of the volunteers direct groups of survivors
>Most of the survivors get into buses that are bound for Toledo
>The others, who are too injured to go anywhere, are helped into medical tents
>Some blankets cover those who didn't make it
>You shake your head
>Most of these people probably don't even own fluffies
>They're probably citizens of Cleveland
>They made it out of the city, but weren't fortunate enough to be saved
>Fluffies have certainly made their mark on the world
>After nearly an hour of waiting, your group is directed toward a bus
>You board, but have to stand
>It's packed to capacity and some people can't move even an inch
>The bus begins to move, and for the first time in the past 4 and a half days, you crack a genuine smile
"Sunsplash...we're finally going home!"
"Dat good...Sunspwas tiwed..."
>You glance over at Anon
>Starsplash is asleep in his arms
"Hell of a weekend, right?"
"You can say that again..."
"It wasn't THAT bad, was it Marcus? I mean...nothing worked when Disneyland opened..."
"Yeah...but when Pirates of the Caribbean breaks down the pirates don't shit all over the tourists."
>You both laugh
>Jen gives a weak smile
>You almost forgot...
>Cleveland's basically been erased from the map
>You think for a minute
"Hey...Jen. What are you gonna do after this?"
"I really don't know...Cleveland's gone, I don't have siblings...my parents are in hospice..."
>You whisper to Sunsplash
"Hey, Sun...you like Jen, right?"
"Jennifuw is nice wady...Sunspwas wike hew!"
"Hey...uh...I got a pretty big house...I mean...lots of space I'd never use..."
"Are you saying..."
"...*shit, this is awkward* yeah...you can stay with me. We'll be like, uh...room mates or some shit."
>The biggest smile you've ever seen from anyone appears on her face
"If I could move I'd probably hug you."
>Anon chimes in
"GROUP HUG ONCE WE REACH THE SHELTER!"
