The Moon Chariot [Group 2]

~Alistair~
He smiled. "I dont think so."

Mariana pouted and crossed her arms

~Alistair~
He tuned out and thought about Skylar back at camp. "I miss her." He whispered to himself.

Mariana looked at him "how do you know shes loyal "

~Alistair~
He turned to Mari. "I'd like to think so."

Mariana frowned softly, "You cant know for sure. I heard rumors before we left."

~Alistair~
His look of compassion turned to concern. "Wait...What Rumors?!?"

"I just heard that Justin was gonna try and get her back. I told Skylar this. She said she missed Justin alot." Mariana said as if it was no big deal, "I wouldnt be surprised if they're together when we get back."

~Alistair~
His face went pale. He leaned back and tilted his head up. He sat there silent for the rest of the ride.

Mariana bit her lip, "I figured you deserved to know."

~Alistair~
"Yeah....."

"Are you ok?" Mariana asked softly, afraid he was going to yell at her

~Alistair~
He just nodded.

Mariana wrapped her arms around him in a hug

~Alistair~
He didnt know what to do so he accepted the hug.

Mariana lied back down, "Im seriously starving."

Ty took a bag of chips out of his bag "here."

Mariana took the bag and smiled before chowing down on the chips

~Diane
About halfway between St. Louis and Indianapolis, something catches my eye. It was getting dark, but I couldn't help but notice the motion.

"Does anyone else see that?" I mutter, looking out to the right side of the car. Off in the distance, a strange pack of creatures that seemed to be half-horse, half-rooster were moving steadily closer.

"I think they're called hippolectryons. I've never seen so many of them in one place. There must be at least fifty of them."

~Alistair~
"We going to fight them? There are no Mortals around."

Marianas eyes lit up and she smiled, "We get to fight things?"

~Diane
"I'm not sure. Hopefully they're just passing by, but something tells me that can't be right."

Just like that, the group swerves, getting so close I could see the whites of their eyes. They looked like they were getting ready to run us off the road. A few more seconds and they were nearly on top of us. Just ahead, one of the larger of them stood in the road, and I knew what was coming.

"Everybody out!" I shout, ripping off the heinous seatbelt and throwing myself to the ground. I tumble, covering myself in dirt and bruises.

Mariana dove out of the car and rolled to her feet grabbing her sword ready to fight

Mallor screamed and got out of the car

Elliot tried to get her seatbelt off but it was stuck.
