While listening to music on my iPod I shake my favorite customer drink to the beat of "shake your booty". I'm just ready to get off so I can go on my month long nature trip. You're probably wondering how I can afford that but I bartend at the bar I own and I also own one of the hottest nightclubs in Toronto. As I finish serving my last customer, I collected my tips while letting the staff know I was leaving and to keep me posted about the business.

My Uber just pulled up, since I'll be gone for a month, I let my best friend Twila keep my car. I called for my second Uber as soon as I got in the house because I might miss my flight and that would be tragic.

I'm so lucky I made that flight because if I didn't I would've had to spend two weeks waiting in a hotel because the man with the boat is going on vacation after he drops me off.

Well anyways, once I saw the sign with "Zinnia" in bright red letters I knew that was who I was looking for. Me and Mr. Perri had small talk like had for his vacation he's taking his family to Disney world and things like unknown facts about Britannica during the car and boat ride. Once he drops me off on the shore he reminds me that it's a almost 20 mile hike north and I need to get there before sunset. As I took the long journey I realized why I needed to get there before sundown, it's creepy in these woods and it's easy to fall, trust me, I've fallen 3 times so far.

Trying to keep myself from being so paranoid I start singing anything that come into my head from gospel songs to things I grew up singing with my cousins. When I noticed parts of the crumbling palace, I started to sing the railroad song because that's exactly what it feels like, it feels like I've been working on a railroad.

Once I reached what I'm going to guess we're the doors I was finishing the first verse. "I've been working on the railroad..." I trailed off when I got inside. I've finally reached my destination, Britannica. Britannica, the once live and thriving kingdom that came to an abrupt end in 532 A.C. It's still a mystery what really went down in the walls of this kingdom that caused it to fall. "You can still see the traces of gold" I thought out loud as I run my hand over the metal in the wall. I take a right turn as I try to find somewhere comfortable to camp out but I see a man with a rusted crown on smiling at me.

I feel like this is short sooo when I finish what I have next I might add it to this
