The sky is dark and a bright and beautiful full moon brightens the road in which the white truck without plates travels.

"Are we there yet?" asked Shaddai impatiently

"No, stop asking" Said Juan tired.

"Being a member of the cartel doesn't seem like a bad idea now does it?" Carlos asked sarcastically.

"We still have some hours left, Riverstone is quite far from tower city, maybe we should stop and rest in a hotel," Juan suggested.

"That would be a great idea if only we had some money," Carlos replied.

"Where is your spirit of adventure? We are so close and I am really excited to see my friend." Said Shaddai loudly and excitedly.

"My spirit of adventure died when you asked for the thousandth time if we are close to Riverstone," Juan answered frustrated.

"Well, are we? Are we there yet?" Shaddai asked... Again.

"NO!" Carlos and Juan yelled.

"And what if we run out of gas, we are broke," Juan questioned.

"We walk," Shaddai answered.

"What do you mean We are broke? Aren't you supposed to be a criminal? I thought cartel members were rich," Carlos added

"Well, I am about to kill you both so, yes. I am a criminal, a broke one," Juan said.

"Maybe there is some money in this truck," Shaddai suggested.

"Or drugs," Carlos added.

"Do you really think the cartel is that dumb? Like if they would leave a dollar unprotected, you seriously think" -Shaddai opened the glove box and found a couple of stacks of money - "they left money in this truck?" Juan asked.

"Well, would you look at that," Carlos said pedantically

"WE ARE RICH," Shaddai shouted.

"I hate you, I hate you both," Juan said through his teeth.

"Let's find a nice restaurant," Shaddai suggested with a glow on his eyes.

"And a hotel," Carlos added.

"Ok, sounds great," said Juan, changing lanes to get to the next exit of the highway.
