"Welcome to Red Stars, the only gas station near you. Find your things, pay, and leave. Also, all the toothpaste is out for the month." The cashier picked at something in her nails, and didn't once make eye contact with Fundy.

"Uh, thanks." Fundy said, "Do you know where the chips are?"

She gave him a look that said 'Are you stupid?'
"Its a gas station, go find what you need."

Fundy rolled his eyes, and went to look in each aisle for chips. He wanted to make nachos, he decided to treat himself after a long day.

He entered aisle 7, and this aisle was colder since it was near the ice cream sandwiches, and milk. The aisle was a mix of all kinds of chips, pretzels, and all kinds of snacks. He looked for the specific kind he wanted.

He reached for one, but pulled his hand away. He wanted to choose the kind he wanted.

His eyes caught the shelves price tag below the bag of chips, and it was pretty cheap. Only $3.25 for a big bag.

He put his hand in his jacket pocket, and took out a small leather, scratched up wallet. He opened the cash holder, where a rare 2 dollar bill lied.

He gasped a bit, No freaking way.

He felt it with his fingers to make sure it was real, and hell yes it was. I think someone heard him gasp, because he heard walking near him.

"You alright?- Woah! Pure luck man, that's awesome." The guy said to Fundy, as Fundy looked up, he studied the man. He looked familiar.

"Thanks. Oh wait, aren't you the guy from the bar?"

"Ohh! Hey! How are you? I never really caught your name." The man said, holding his hand out for a hand shake.

Fundy grabbed it.

"Fundy." "Ninja."

They said in sync, after a few seconds of hand shaking, both of their faces had a shocked expression, growing as the slower the hand shake got.

"Fundy?!"
"Ninja?!"

They said like they were best friends, just meeting each other again after years of being apart.

"Its you!" Fundy paused, "Wait, I need to talk to you." He tightened his grip on his hand and dragged him to the corner of the whole building.

"How do you know me?" Fundy asked, very curious and confused on how they felt like they knew each other.

"I've heard of you from a lot of people before." Ninja responded. Also confused, and wondering about the feeling.

"And Im sorry about George man, he's really nice if you get to know him some." Ninja put his hand on Fundys shoulder comforting.

He scoffed, "I know, we were inseparable."

"But, before we get into anything else, I need to ask you about this plan I've been planning ever since i've heard about you." Ninja said in a serious tone.

Whatever Ninja had in mind, even if he didn't say anything, made Fundys heart beat faster. He wanted to do it immediately. He knew that it would do something to either get revenge, or help himself, but he didn't care. He needed to do something to make the pain go away.

I can't handle it anymore. I don't care who it hurts.
