A young boy answered the door to Suzie's house, he had a toy bow and arrow on him.
"...Is Suzie here?" Mike asked awkwardly.
He fired the arrow at Mike's face. "OW!" He yelped.
They stepped into the house and were shocked to see tons of young children, some were filming some kind of performance, others were fighting, some weird cooking. They finally found one girl who looked around their age putting the one who fired an arrow at Mike on time out.
She finally noticed them and her eyes widened. "Who the hell are you?" Her eyes were on Argyle.
He grinned awkwardly. "Argyle...you?"
"Eden." She greeted rather bashfully.
"What is happening?" Oscar muttered in disbelief, making Mike shrug.
Jonathan spoke up. "Uh, we're looking for Suzie?"
"Third floor, second door on your left." She told them.
They hurried there but didn't find anyone, only to notice the window open.
"Suzie?" Mike called as he looked out and spotted her setting something up on the roof.
"Yeah?" She turned to see all of them. "Who the heck are you? And why are you in my room?"
Oscar coughed awkwardly. "Right, that's uh, that's fair. We're Dustin's friends and we kind of desperately need your help."
~~~
"That...is a lot to process." Suzie admitted when they finished explaining everything to her.
"Yeah, I know." Mike told her sheepishly.
Suzie looked down at the number. "So I dial into this computer, find a location, and at this location is...the Nina Project?"
"Correct." Will nodded.
"And the Nina Project is a code name for a video game?"
Mike hesitated. "Actually a video game console. Basically America's answer to Nintendo."
"It's 16-bit." Will added.
"16-bit? Why have I never heard of it?" She wondered.
Oscar paced around, looking anxious. "Because it's top secret."
"And the first few people to find the secret location get one." Mike added.
"So you drove all the way out to Utah so I can help you get a game console no one has ever heard of?" She questioned.
"Yeah."
She looked exasperated.
"But it's not for us, it's uh, for Dustin." Oscar told her awkwardly.
"Yeah for his birthday which is in-" Mike started.
"Two months, three days and five hours." Suzie chimed in.
Just then Eden stormed in. "Suzie I don't know what you're doing but I'm not spending the day babysitting! PULL YOUR DAMN WEIGHT!"
"Language!" Suzie protested.
She shoved her out of the room.
"Look, will you help us or not?" Oscar asked, running a hand through his hair.
"I would do anything for Dusty-Bun, unfortunately there has been a development. After I changed his grade, I was wracked with guilt. Father could see my soul was tortured and got a confession out of me. Not only was I breaking the law, but I was dating an agnostic. Father was furious and took my computer. I'm unlikely to ever get it back." She explained sadly.
Will frowned. "Where is it?"
"His study. He uses it for work now." She sulked. "And he's always working, and his door is permanently locked."
Everyone looked down at this.
Oscar suddenly paused, smirking a little. "Hey Suzie, if your father realized someone in the house was doing something they shouldn't, would that draw him out?"
"Well sure, but it would have to be awfully severe." Suzie told him nervously.
"How does your dad feel about cigarettes?"
~~~
Oscar kneeled down in front of the door to the study, smoking a cigarette and trying to get the smoke to go through.
It didn't take long for him to hear footsteps. He shot up and faced Suzie's father.
"Who are you and WHY ARE YOU SMOKING IN MY HOUSE!?" He exclaimed furiously.
Oscar grinned. "Uh, Eden's boyfriend. Oh I gave one of these to one of the youngsters by the way, really calmed him down."
"WHAT!?"
Oscar bolted down the stairs as Suzie's father hurried after him.
He ran out the door and Suzie's father stopped at the doorway. "DON'T COME BACK YOU CREEP!" He hissed before slamming the door.
Oscar wheezed and headed for the car, eyes widening at what he saw.
Argyle and Eden were getting high together, and might've been...making out?
"Hey Eden, you like cigarettes?" Oscar questioned as he climbed in.
"Yeah?" She raised an eyebrow.
He tossed her his pack. "Take 'em, that was my last one."
"You're gonna regret that." She told him.
He waved her off. "Nah, well okay, I probably will but..." He sighed. "I don't want to hurt my friends anymore. I nearly gave my brother a heart attack and I'd rather not go through it again."
Argyle smiled. "That's wicked man..." He paused. "Want a hit?" He offered the bong to him.
Oscar's eyes narrowed.
Soon the others arrived at the car and were startled to see Eden there, but they needed to get moving so they didn't have much time to question it.
They bid farewell to Suzie and Eden and took off.
