Building a Dream - The Club House Begins

[nessbound]

[With a fervor like no other, Ness had been spending the last few weeks running about the town. He had been gathering every scrap piece of wood he could carry. From every tosses piece of balsa, to every dismissed plank of ply wood, he had smuggled what he could without being caught.

"Yeah. It'd be good for a base of operation for all the kids in town. Kinda' like a safe house in case some thing bad happens again.

I'm hanging in there, aside from school and stuff.

Think you can swing by some time soon?"

"Ah! Good to hear! I'm good now if you want to come over! I'm just sorting out planks and boards for easier access right now. Just head around back when you get here!"

[a_gentle_boy]

OK. I'll see you in about ten minutes, then.

[Click. ... And in about ten minutes, sure enough, Lucas will peek around the back of the house, a little hesitantly.]

[Ness is merely standing among a large collection of amassed piles of wood. He's rather deep in thought, it seems, as he has a finger to his chin and his eyes are now shut tightly.]
