Acension:Metro

[Aconitum]

Acon sighed and tried to go through her memories. She then looked around and gasped. "OH MY GOD! What happened?!"

[Rayleonarde]

"A few months after you died. Everything went to hell, Acon..." Ray looked at his tattooed arm, and sighed. "A-And...I-I think..."

[Aconitum]

Acon ran her paw over Ray's arm. "And...?'

[Rayleonarde]

Ray sniffed. "I...might have had a paw in it..."

[Aconitum]

Acon sighed. "Oh wonderful. So... the girls? They aren't... are they?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray shook his head. "No. I sent them with Jayce, who bought seats on some government savior boat or something."

[Aconitum]

Acon nodded and sighed. "Thank god! So... who else survived?"

[Rayleonarde]

"Ronnie, Mag, Lucy, Satan...Jayce, Frank...their whole family. Erm...Ronnie, Maurice, Jefferson...Um...Magnolia's around somewhere, I think. So is Rayleonarde, probably. Either that, or they're somewhere in Europe." Ray looked Acon up and down. "I've missed you so much."

[Aconitum]

Acon sighed and nodded at each name. She hugged Ray and smiled warmly. "I-I know." She thought a moment. "Where are you living?"

[Rayleonarde]

"Metro. Just below us, in fact." Ray motioned towards the rear of the bus.

[Aconitum]

Acon nodded and wiped her eyes. "Can... can we go? I'm tired and I think I swallowed part of a car tire."

[Rayleonarde]

Ray nodded, and started down the bus. He held the back door open, and smiled at Acon.

[Aconitum]

She walked through the door and looked around. "Huh. How'd you find this place?"

[Rayleonarde]

"We came down here once." Ray moved a piece of cloth, revealing his, Acon's, and the twins' pawprints in the concrete. "They never cleaned it up...that's why I chose to set up here." He smiled sadly. "I miss them." Ray ran his paw on the twins' prints.
