What had happened? I was tempted to simply brush off the dream, call it nothing more than a side affect of whatever medicine Maurina had given me. But what if I was wrong? I couldn't leave whoever it was that had called for help to die. Then I remembered the numbers. I sat up quickly. "Quick, do you have something I can write on?" I asked Maurina.

I gave him a very confused look, but retrieve a scrap of paper and pencil from my desk. "Here, mind if I ask why you need it?"
Brutis returned and barked once, letting them know the house was clean. I threw him a treat. "Good boy."
I then restarted the fire and heated the soup back up. When it was ready, I served us each a bowl, giving Brutis one as well.

I quickly scribbled down the numbers, 40.7217 N., 74.0059 W. on the paper. Now at least I wouldn't forget them. "While I was sleeping I had a dream. But it wasn't a dream. Not really. It was a messege for help that someone sent to my mind. He said that they were under attack and needed my help." I drew the symbol on the paper as well. "He said to go to these coordinates and look for this symbol. Thank you." I said as I took the bowl.

"You're welcome," I said, sitting on my couch.
I guess I'd heard of stranger things. I shrugged, "So, are you going to go there?"
I was tempted to ask if I could come. I'd grown use to Jacob. At least I knew he wouldn't hurt me. And I had Brutis back.
I attacked my soup and helped myself to another bowl. I gave Brutis more too, then offered Jacob another serving as well.

(Sorry for taking so long to post. I've been hunting for these stupid eggs T-T)

"No thank you" I said when she offered me more. "I kinda have to don't I? I mean, I can't just leave them to." I studied the numbers. If I remember my navigation class correctly, they should meet somewhere in New York. Looking up at Maurina, I noticed the look of longing on her face. "You could come if you wanted to. It always helps to have another pair of eyes." I glanced at Brutis. "Or two."

OH MY GOSH! found 11!)
"We'll come back, right?" I didn't realize I meant him as well until I said it. But I meant it. "I mean, I really like it here. I've got my lake and house and stuff..."

"Of course. This is your home, and I wouldn't ask you to leave it." I said. "If we can find a car, it should only be a day's drive at most." I didn't mention the fact that working cars were few and far between. If you did find one, most of the time you would have some kind of danger associated with it. Gangs gathered them up to try and lure people in, not to mention the fact that many of the stronger Ex were drawn to the gas.

"Well, I don't have one of those, but I do have a boat. It's not big, but you and Brutis can hope in. It shouldn't take more then a half a day that way," I smiled, "Those scales and fin's aren't just for show. I can outswim every fish I've met. I haven't towed a boat, but it shouldn't be too hard. I'm stronger in that form anyway."

I stared at her, slightly nervous. "Uhh, I appreciate the offer but..." I tried to think of an excuse. "But I don't know exactly where these coordinates land. I know they land somewhere in the general area of New York City, but other than that I'm not sure. And I don't know how big this lake is, but I'm pretty sure that there aren't any lakes that connect with NYC." I hoped she wouldn't be offended be my dismissal of her idea. I wasn't even sure my exuse was true. But nothing on heaven or earth could get me into that boat.

"Of course there is. The Great Lakes run right past New York on the way to the Atlantic Ocean. And we can always get on land when we get close," I told him. I know why he was acting funny. "Is there something wrong with boats?"

I decided that beating around the bush would do no good for anyone. I sighed. "Yes there is a problem, not with boats, but with large bodies of water in general. It's not fear exactly, so much as a strong aversion. Kind of like when you try to hold two magnets together, they just want to separate. I'm sorry but I can't make myself do that." I looked away embaressed. I hated admitting any sort of weakness.

I couldn't believe it. He'd just told me something deep, something personal! But I didn't have judgment on my mind. He hadn't shown me any and I wouldn't do that him! I not only respected him for telling her, I felt honored he trusted me.
"Oh, wow. Alright, so I guess we'll just have to walk," I smiled, showing him I didn't mind.

I sighed with relief, before giving her a small smile. I hadn't realized it before, but I cared what this girl thought about me. I had been worried that my only friend in this nightmare, how new of a friend she may be, would think less of me because of my weakness. Foolish I know, but it happens to everyone. I felt something stronger in the back of my mind, something that wanted more than friendship. I quickly shoved it away. This was no time to be thinking of such things. I hardly even new her anyway. I couldn't be fall-. I stopped myself. Stop thinking about it. Do the work in front of you. "We'll need to get supplies ready. They said they could hold out for a while longer, but I want to leave as soon as possible."

"Well, let's get packing," I told him, turning to the attic stairs, I pulled down my meager store of canned goods and jerky. I placed it in my messenger bag. I walked into my room, grabbing warm clothes, underwear and socks. I waked back out to the living room. "Do you need any clothes? You could take some of my brother's old things...he won't be needing them anyway."
I looked down at Brutis. Sensing my discomfort, he whined and nudged my hand with his head.

I suddenly felt terrible. I called this girl a friend, but never even gave a thought to why she lived alone in a three story house. I had never been very good at thinking about others before. Shaking my head, I said, "There's no need. I can clean this if necessary, but it probably won't be. It hasn't collected a sock of dust in almost a year." I grabbed my bag, slinging it over my shoulder. "Everything else I might need is in here."

"Alright, I think I'm all set too," I told him. I was relieved he hadn't asked about my brother. But I was also kind of disappointed. I was so confused. I had no problem interacting with guys before the world went to pieces. My brother and his friends had let me tag along. But after my run in with Seth, I didn't want to have anything to do with guys ever again. Until Jacob. He...he was sweet and comforting to have around.

"Ok then, let's get going." I said, walking to the window. When we were outside I suddenly remembered an important detail that I hadn't thought about. "Um, give me a sec. I'll be right back." I said before hurrying of towards the grove of oak trees. I couldn't exactly leave him there. Not after I had promised to let him go. Maybe I could get him to knock himself out on a tree. I soon came upon the spot where Bob sat, foot still stuck under the boulder. He perked up when he saw me, before shaking his head and growling. "Ok Bob. I'm going to let you go now. I just hope that I can incapacitate you enough for us to leave." I moved to the side of the rock opposite Bob. placing my hand on it. I teleported a few feet away, taking the rock with me. Bob stood shaking his numb foot, growled at me, the stalked away into the woods. I guess it was just his way of saying thanks for letting me go. I quickly returned to where I had left Maurina and Brutis.

Brutis growled after the Ex, but I told him to leave it. The Ex was leaving anyway.
"So, is it alright if we follow the shoreline? I don't have any other way to ensure we're headed in the right direction. And it'll give us a ready supply of food." I reasoned. I also didn't want to be too far from the water. A year away from it had been torture!
