Kyle is still frozen in his spot. "When did Outer Heaven become known."
Colin is still just as stiff. "I was confused as to why and how we were teleported to Detroit more but hey I guess this is new to us too."
The newscaster on the screen starts to repeat.
"For those of you just joining us, there has been a massive protest in New York City this evening as hundreds of civilians protested what they saw as unfair as the federal government outlawed the group known as OUTER HEAVEN for reported conspiracy against the government. Free speech activists protested this move as unconstitutional while federal agents continue to search for any trace of the original members. FBI Agent Grant had this to say about the events."
"This is a serious case of treason being committed against the US and we must put it to an end."
"The FBI is preparing a cash reward for anyone with information leading to the arrest of any founding members of this group. There is no word on what the charges will be, if any, and no word on what the Senate or House of Representatives feel on the matter, as well as no comment from the White House."
Colin dropped the remote. He could not believe what had happened.
Kyle fainted and fell asleep on the bed. It was late at night.
Suddenly a flash of light appeared and Colin woke up breathing heavy. Kyle walked out of the bathroom. "Oh hey Noob dogs."
Colin turned on the news again, only the same old political drama about the president. He checked his phone for it. Nothing. Searching OUTER HEAVEN brought up nothing.
"What the fuck." Colin muttered. He looked at Kyle. "Kyle did I show you something about Outer Heaven being in the news."
Kyle looked confused. "What are you on about?"
Colin just gave up. "Never mind, forget I said anything."
Colin flopped back on the bed and set an alarm for 9 AM and fell asleep. They had to meet with the first individual tomorrow and he couldn't screw this up."
