Earth meets Equestria...ok.
The Arrival To Washington DC-Chapter 2
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI woke up from sleeping. I look around, we're on a highway, the up coming sign says we're exiting Pennsylvania. Dylan and Jenna where talking about how excited they are about the opening. We decided to pull in to a city called Hagerstown. The place was pretty similar to home, but still a lot different. The first place we stopped at was Atomic Comics, I really didn't want to go, but Dylan's two little brothers wanted to go there. In the mean time, James Dylan and I head over to a bar and restaurant called Broad Axe. I always had my fake ID, my looks weren't the problem when it came to acting older than I really am, but it was the trick to making a good fake ID. James and Dylan went and sat in a booth that was somewhat hidden from the keeper, I got James a drink, but Dylan said he didn't want to get in trouble with the police and his parents. I walk back over to the guys, I hand James his drink and sit with mine.
"Hey man, thanks for the drink. We couldn't done it without you,"
I look at Dylan who looked unease in the booth. "Dude, calm down, we're not gonna get caught OK? and besides, I know how to handle it if we get in trouble, and trust me, I've been in too many problems to count," He doesn't seem to be calming down, I give a smile and a nod to insure him. He looks at me then into my eyes, he eased up a bit from me telling him that.
I stand up, then lean over to dylan. "Now, whats your poison Dylan?"
"I'll have a... a.." He looks at me, "what do you think I should get? I don't even know any drinks besides the beer my dad drinks."
I roll my eyes with a chuckle, "I'll get a captain coke, twice the amount of morgan in it... That'll make you pucker," I pat Dylan on the back, then walk over to the tender and ask for the drink.
He raises a eyebrow, then looks to where I came from of where Dylan and James are sitting. He makes the drink, not really knowing of what Im asking him to make. "Your not giving minors alcohol, are you?" The tender asks.
"No, I'm finishing off my drinks faster than usual, just had a breakup with my girlfriend is all." I lie, trying to get him off my back.
He smirks then hands me the drink. "Hope you get over it soon,". He says.
I finish the shot of apple pucker that was in front of me for a while. Dylan picks his drink up and takes a sip, but sets it down with a disgusted look on his face. "Don't like it?"
He shakes his head and moans in a way to say yes. "What the heck was in that?"
"Oh, just nothing but a little Captain Morgan and coke,"
I look over to the bar tender and see him on the phone, he looks at us, then turns away, but still glimpses back to us, while whispering into the phone. SHIT! He called the cops! I poke james, then point to the tender. James see's what I mean. He reaches around in his pockets before pulling out fine ground up powder. I whisper Dylan the plan and what's gonna be happening shortly. Not long after I was done explaining, the sound of police sirens were becoming louder. James looks over at me with a nod. I walk over to the bar tender and start pulling out some cash to pay for the bill. I do, then thank him for the drinks. The police are just around the corner, I could hear it. James and Dylan walk next to me. He looks at all of us, then the window. "James now," I say.
James throws the powder into the guys face, blinding him for the time being. I push him into the back of the bar, slightly knocking him out. "A person forgets a thousand things every day, make this one of them." Dylan says.
We all run out the back door into the allie, we run back to the comic store and see Jenna and Bill with Max and Robert walking out with them.
"Hey, where were you guys? We were just gonna start lookin for you," Jenna holds Dylan's little brother Max, she looks at all of us one at a time.
"Oh, we were just walking around town, its a nice place. I'll keep it in mind if I wanna run away from home," James says.
I lean over to Dylan, asking with my teeth gritted. "What the FUCK was that line you said back in the bar?"
"I got it from a game I play, its kind of a thing I always wanted to do." He says, trying to calm me down.
"Welp, lets get a move on, our times running short." Dylan's dad unlocked the truck.
"Hey Bill, I was wondering if you ever gone hunting before?" Dylan's dad looks back at me. "I use to, until the law of using crossbows passed at home,"
We all got in to our respected spots again, and with us about 70 miles away, I'll stay awake for the time being. I at least got to have a conversation a little bit with Bill.
"OK, we're here!"
"FINALLY!!! I can get out and stretch,"
I walk out of the car, acudently walking into the street without me noticing. The noise of a horn coming my way and a car zooming by me made me jump back to the car's side. "Why is the parking lot so cramped?"
"Well, the opening is happening tomorrow, people took up every hotel and place to stay. Its pretty much common sense of you think about it," Dylan said, looking around the lot.
I grab my bag, and help out Dylan with his over packed bags. We head into the building, I look around the cheap place with the old cracking dry wall, all the old lamps and the one old chandelier with the dusty light bulbs. "How may I help you?" an old man says behind the counter. His face seemed all twisted up, like he had accident when he was young or something.
"The reservation for the Poucher's,"
"AH, here you are Mrs.Poucher... and have a wonderful night,"
We all Figure out who's going with who with rooms, Dlyan and his brothers took one room, Jenna and Bill took one of there own and James and I took the last room. I look over to Dylan he seems to be a little tipsy, probably the small amount of alichol , I brushed the thought off and went in my room, where James was already trying to sleep. "its gonna be a long night..." I say closing my door.
