As you stood in the store, you couldn't believe how much snacks there stood infront of you. You couldn't possibly choose. It was too much. Too much you've never had, too much you wnated to have. 


Stealing isn't bad, right?

Nahh.

You're Moroccan. (skip if you're not)

And Connor Stoll is your best friend.


First, you grab some bubble gum, then you grab some cookies with blue frosting, and then some candy and then chips and apple juice, soda, more candy, cookies, lolly's... You couldn't stop, okay, you've never had this stuff in your life.


You place it all down at the cash register which earned a weird look from the cashier


Who cares? You're not the one who's missing out.


As you pay, a woman walks by, but something doesn't feel right about her.


You turn to look at her and that's the moment you got a tingly feeling again. That's when you realize she isn't human... She's a furie. 


Really? Now? Couldn't have picked another moment and let a girl enjoy her food??


You quickly walk out of the store, into the bus with your bag but then stop and turn around. You sneakily put your New York Yankees cap on to turn invisible. 


Then, you sit next to  woman and you know that she sensed you. "If you guys were better at your job, I might not have noticed you here so easily." You told the furie.


"We both know you still would. And we both know why." Alecto replies. "I've changed." You tell her. "Maybe so, maybe so... Either way, now you make it seem you're exactly the way you show you are, which you're not." She spoke to you.


"Why are you here?" You instead question, changing the subject. "I'm here to collect your friend." she answers. 


You really wanted to tell her that he's not your friend, but it doesn't seem like the best moment for that. "For what?"


"Oh, I don't question orders. 'Bring him in, quick and quiet.' That is what I was told." Alecto tells you.

"And you know. Now I said it out loud, you seem like the perfect person to do the job even better than told. Lure him off this bus so I can take him quietly away from so many eyes, and your quest goes on unimpeded and unburdened." She instructs you.


"Plus, if you do it... I could... help you completly forget your past. I know a way, and you'll live in peace, you'll never have to worry about anything anymore, you don't have to fear anything anymore... you'll be free." The woman offers making you freeze at her words.
