Money Gathering + New Friend?

They've been walking for hours and hours on end, looking for money while trying to look like... Not hobos. They've had no success until...
"D: HOLY SHIT! "
"SH: WHAT WHAT?!"
They've all stopped In their tracks
"D: I FOUND 50 DOLLARS ON THE FLOOR!"
"SH: WHAT? REALLY? YES!FINALLY NOW WE CAN EAT"
"D: We? Eat? No this is MINE. IM gonna eat"
"J: Dude what the fuck cmon don't be selfish"
"D: yknow what fine, we can get something to eat"
"SH: yes, finally"
"D: except shavo. "
"SH: What?! Why? "
"D: Well YOU'RE the one who got us in this dumbass situation in the first place, so in my book you're on your own."
"SH: Cmon dude, I'm sorry I just thought it was a great idea at the time"
"S: yeah cmon daron, it'll be alright we'll get back to L.A soon somehow, and it was kinda cool to go through a time machine"
"D:...ugh fine, sorry for almost making you starve I guess."
They all continue walking until they've found a McDonald's or something. They all ordered something and went back on the road, or streets (I didn't feel like writing dialogue for this)
"S: Okay, so now how are we gonna get back?"
"J: I don't know"
"S: well let's brainstorm"
While they're all walking, a strange man with black spiky hair stopped them (or whatever type of hair he had in the 2000's)
"?: hey, you're serj tankian right?"
"S: wait...how the hell do you know? Damnit daron the disguise didn't work"
"D: well actually it worked for a while? I don't know how this guy even knows you"
"?: wait...what year did you guys come from?"
"S:...1999, why?"
"JU: Ohh, I'm 2000's Jimmy urine, we met later"
"S:....hmmm, okay"
"D: what? You're just gonna believe him like that? How do WE know you know him and not just some weird pervert?"
"JU: I have a picture of us together"
He pulled out a photo of him nd serj together
"D: Oh okay, my bad"
"JU: so now that we have that out of the way, did you guys also find a note saying to go to a random location?"
"SH: huh? No we didn't-"
After he said that, John looked down and saw a note and picked it up
"J: wait I think I just found it"
"SH: oh, well open it"
"J: Okay..."
"J: It's just directions to a random location"
"JU: Oh, thats perfect, I have the name. It's uhh, 123StillWater ave?"
"J: well, does it say what state is in? "
"S: why wouldn't it be in this one? Wait... What state are we even in?"
"D: I'll go ask"
"S: who?"
"D: idk anybody"
He walks up to somebody and asks
"D: hey, do you know what state this is?"
"?:....what question is that dumbass? How do you not know? Well, it does make sense considering your homeless"
"D: what? I'm not fucking homeless- oh...well just tell me what state we're in asshole"
"?: ugh fine, we're in Las Vegas"
"Thank you, now was that hard? "
"?: How about you shut up and go back to whatever shithole you came from"
"D:...."
Daron then proceeds to beat the ever living fuck out of the person, takes their wallet, and walk back over to the gang
"D: yeah so we're in Vegas"
"SH:....why the HELL WOULD YOU DO THAT?!"
"D: they were being a dickhead, I just asked what state we're in"
"SH:....whatever, now uhhh Johnny what state does it say the place is in? "
"JU: it's Jimmy, and it says.... Los Angeles California?.... "
"J: What the FUCK. So we're gonna have to trek ALL the way to California by foot to a place we don't even know whats gonna happen when we get there? "
"S: hey, don't worry, we can just walk to a bus station, get to where ever is closest to California, then catch a ride to the state, and THEN catch several rides to L.A"
"SH: do we even have enough money for that? "
"D: Well, we still have money leftover from the food, and the person I just mugged had a whopping..... 150 dollars in their wallet. So we have uhhh.... 174 dollars"
"SH: wow that's great! I think..."
"J:Was it a guy or a girl by the way?"
"D: I don't know, they had titties like a girl but a voice and face like a dude"
"S: It doesn't matter, lets go find a bus station now quickly"
They all go off to find a bus stop.
