Day 28: North Street

Oct 31, 2007 11:08

[From Here]Cloud found his way along what was apparently called North Street. It was just as long as the Main St, but it did not seem as busy. There were less shops here as he walked, but the quietness was nice. He paused to look at the southbound streets as he passed them, taking note of how many there were before he managed to find a street he ( Read more... )

As they turned onto the next street, Peter stopped in his tracks. It was pretty empty. There were a few people around, but he got the feeling they weren't patients, mainly because they looked pretty at home.

He glanced over at Eddie and held back a sigh. If there were no other patients around this area, then Tasty Burger probably wasn't on it, either. After all, people tended to congregate wherever free food happened to be.

"I'm guessing this isn't it," Brock said. By now he'd practically inhaled the juice box (he made sure to litter just because he could) and was working his way through the rest of the bagged food ( ... )

While there might be something else of interest to check out on this particular street, Peter knew that food was apparently the priority. They would try going down the next one and see if it was any better, traffic-wise. They could always come back after they had their lunch, he figured.

He couldn't help but notice the way Eddie was looking over at that car shop, though. Maybe it was just because it was something normal when he had been locked up for what seemed to be a long time, but Peter had to wonder if there was anything more to it. It was hard to imagine Eddie being a car buff when he lived in a place like New York, where he didn't even get to drive one.

"Yeah," he agreed after a pause before turning himself around and heading back.

Haku was glad to come upon a fairly empty street. His ribs were aching and he wanted to find a place to rest for a moment. He checked his pulse and frowned at it's pace. Too fast, he was tired? From walking around?

This was ridiculous.

He leaned up against a wall and placed his arms gently over his stomach, closing his eyes.

Well, well. Here was a familiar figure Jack hadn't seen since his boyfriend beamed him across the face. This little punk was alone now, it appeared. Ah, well. He had been trying to make peace on the bulletin board, hadn't he? While he couldn't say he completely forgave the kid (for either gaining him a beating OR being male), he wouldn't be too mean to Haku.

"You've looked better," He muttered flatly, joining the ninja in leaning for a moment.

Haku heard someone come up to him, but when Jack wasn't hostile, Haku only smiled and opened his eyes. He was looking at the ground. "Haven't we all?"

Reaching behind him, moving carefully so he wouldn't jar his ribs, Haku drew out a small bundle of tissue and held it out to Jack. Wrapped up in the inconspicuous mess were four cigarettes.

"Here. As an apology for your nose."

Jack took note of the cigarettes and pocketed them greedily, saying nothing. Cigarettes! REAL FUCKING CIGARETTES. Where had Haku come across them? And where could he get more?

Jack sidled closer. "That's real nice, Haku. But that's not even a pack's worth. Got any other cigarettes hidden away somewhere that you'd be willing to share?"

He looked left and right, noting that he hadn’t been down this street yet.

Wicker Street… Wicker Street… Is this Wicker Street? Didn’t look like it. Zoro vaguely wondered how he was supposed to tell one street from another. It looked like he’d gone a little further from town, if the nearby fields were indicative of anything.

The pirate paid rapt attention to his surroundings, focusing on finding that one restaurant name he’d read off his coupon. He already knew the Tasty Burger place didn’t look edible; maybe this one was slightly better.

His expression was stony and intent, even as he turned back into Germaine street for the 3rd time that day.

As they turned the corner, a sign overhead informed them that they'd reached North Street. The area Raiden had chosen was considerably less crowded, and offered other interesting advantages.

"I think I see a used car shop down there," remarked Otacon.
