[They drove through the same forested route, through the shortcut lane for more inconspicuousness. Crownslayer had to match Gordon's pace now, as their drag race ended, and that speeding through an environment resembling a jungle in Former Vietnam, might be a bad idea. Good thing no one won that drag race.]
[Their vehicles jump from every bump they come across, but without further damages, and dirt climbing on the chassis of their cars...and Crownslayer's legs because she's...on a motorbike, they finally made it to the camp.]
Constructing different perspective to prevent further confusion and easier understanding and control of subject's serotonin levels.
[AJ and Faust apparently finished early, not in that context mind you, they only came back with an entire elk carcass, and disappointingly not much else... It seems he's joined Talulah's enlightening moment.]
AJ: "I say, you weren't this interested in ancient history before."
Talulah: "Not when you're the one doing the narration. Could barely understood with that accent."
Faust: "They have not come back yet, is that concerning?"
Talulah: "It is, but...it's not safe to make assumptions. Besides, they're no longer kids."
Faust: "Well, there is Gordon and Crownslayer."
Frost: "Faust, please?"
Faust: "Yes, of course."
Frost: "Anyways, as I saying. In 1765, the American Revolution had begun, all because the British would not stop levying taxes from them."
Talulah: "I say, we have a lot in common with the Old Americans. They couldn't handle abuse anymore, so they create their own nation. How quaint."
AJ: "But when you look at Modern America, well...before this all happen? You might think otherwise."
Talulah: "I'm sure we won't turn out to be hypocrites, Austin."
*Sheriff Will then walks into view, coming out from behind the bus.*
Will: "Everyone, we got company. AJ, we need your help on this one."
AJ: "Faust, my hat?"
Faust: "Certainly."
*AJ then dons on his cowboy hat, stands up, and nods at Will.*
Will: "Oh, by the way, um... You might want to see this too."
Talulah: "Hosea has arrived quite late, hasn't he?"
Will: "Yes, and for a good reason."
*Frost and Faust stayed behind, leaving AJ and Talulah to follow Sheriff Will to see what and how many souvenirs Hosea had brought.*
Frost: *Sighs.*
Faust: "Never knew you could be-"
Mephisto: "Such a nerd?"
Frost: "Hey!"
Mephisto: "What? It's true?"
[They arrived at the right road of the camp, where several survivors from their group can be seen hauling packs of duffle bags, suffering from the heavy weight, and the many duffle bags.]
[Hosea, from his truck, is seen breaking his back, literally, grabbing cases of ammunition, and a bag full of ammo boxes, and giving them to the survivors. Gordon and Crownslayer, from Gordon's car, was distributing gun bags as if they're soup for the poor. AJ and Talulah were astonished, and Will couldn't stop smiling.]
