Y/N pov:
I wake up in the morning feeling refreshed, and quickly get up. Heading to the bathroom to brush my teeth, I look over to the tub, and decide I'm already clean enough, and leave the room, heading for my kitchen. When I get there I open the fridge and see the casserole I saved for breakfast. I take it out, and pop it into the microwave. I get out a plate and silverware, feeling pretty hungry. After it's done heating up, I put it onto my plate, and throw away the bag I had it in. As I sit down, I relax, and let my shoulders drop. I cut the casserole into a couple of smaller pieces so that it will cool off while I think. I take a deep breath, and weigh out my options.
I'm curious as to what Starline wants, and I would like to know his reasoning for why he helped Eggman. He also gave me all of that money, and said there would be more in it if I helped... But then again, it could be a trap, maybe he wants to erase every part of his old life so that no one can trace anything about it back to him... darn, this is an interesting situation. What to do, what to do? My food having cooled off, I pull it towards me and start eating as I think. It tastes a bit better than it did last night, interesting! Maybe since it sat and marinated in its own juices overnight. Wait! Not important. I sigh, and look down, closing my eyes as I can't make a decision on what to do.
I then think of something suddenly. If he wanted to kill me, he would have just broken into my house and killed me in my sleep, since he obviously knows where I live. So he actually needs something from me personally. Hmmmm, might actually be a pretty worthwhile venture for me. Fine, I'll head to the location and talk to him, but I'll have to be cautious. I quickly finish my food and toss the plate into the sink. I really need to wash dishes when I get back. You know what? Actually, no Starline can wait a little longer, I'll do it now so that I don't have to later. I hurriedly do the dishes, silently cursing myself for being responsible.
After I'm done, I grab my keys and head outside to my car. I get inside the car, and reach into my glove box, grabbing my sunglasses. It's pretty sunny out today, wouldn't want to hurt the ol' eyes. I close the glove box, and look out onto the road. Should I really do this? It could be dangerous. I'm no stranger to immoral things, but this could be hazardous to my health. Well, curiosity killed the cat...
It's a good thing I'm not a cat then!
I crank my car, and pull out of my driveway, heading to the location with a newfound determination in my mind. As I drive down the road, I listen to some classic rock music, wondering on what it could be that Starline needs my help with. How did he figure out where I live? And why has he went into hiding only to come right back out to send for me of all people.
As I cruise down the road, I think back on our time working together. He was so lively, focused, and brilliant, he always had such extraordinary ideas, but it seems he used them to help Dr. Eggmans tyrannical pursuits. What a shame. Such a waste of good talent. Oh well, no use in dwelling on it now.
As I drive, a quiet sound go's off, and I look to my dashboard. I see that I'm pretty low on gas. I sigh, and pull into the next gas station I see. The gas is pretty expensive here, but there's not too many options for me right now. I pay at the machine, and put the nozzle into my car, letting it run while I head into the store itself to grab a drink and snack. I quickly grab a soda and bag of chips, and head to the cash register, which is manned by an elderly woman.
"That all for ya today?" I nod. She had that fake happiness tone in her voice that almost all cashiers have, and it makes me irrationally angry. "Cash or card?" "Card." She presses a few buttons, and see that she's added another item to my total, the gas that I already paid for. "Ma'am? You added the gas to the total, I've already paid for that at the pump." She doesn't respond, she just sighs and takes the gas off the order. I roll my eyes, and put my card into the reader. Afterwards I take my chips and drink and quickly head back out to my car. Don't want to be I there for a moment longer than I have to.
I put my stuff in the driver's seat, and take the nozzle out and put it back into the stand. Getting back into my car, I take a sip of my drink and open my chips before cranking my car and getting back onto the road. As I eat my chips, I see that it's just turned to noon. I smile, and look out onto the road ahead.
As I get to the location, I turn off my car and step out, grabbing a survival knife that I always have in the vehicle. In front of me is an extremely large building, it almost looks like a factory, but it's been abandoned for a while by the looks of it. I walk towards the building, and look around for a door. Eventually I find an old back door, and try to pull it open. It doesn't budge. Ok then, probably locked. I look around for a while, and I see a hammer nearby. I smile and take it, walking back towards the door.
I just really hope it doesn't take too long to find Starline in this dump.
