Rea: Good luck.
*You hear a static shift and a click before absolute radio silence as the signal disappears*

@Crew

*Mutters to myself*
At least it beat cell time...

*The colorful aurora in the sky becomes more vibrant and slightly more visibly varied as you draw closer to your destination*

@Session

*As the sun sets and night rolls in, lightning storms begin to settle in, albeit without any sort of clouds to source from. The strikes are also a characteristic pink hue, betraying its properties and making it clear how these are no ordinary storms*

@Crew

*Holds my hands behind my head and keeps the wheel strait with my leg while I look at the stars and rest*

@Session

*The air itself seems to shimmer as you approach a sign that says the Seers' Pools are off the next exit*

@Crew

*Blazes past the sign, and notices a few minutes later*
Wha—Oh, whoops.
*Stops the car, does a k-turn, and drives the opposite direction on the highway*

*Closes my eyes and inhales slowly, holds for a moment, and then exhales slowly*
I hoped Dad would be back in time for this. Too hopeful, I suppose.

@Galaxy Raider

*The same voice message that played for abby plays for you*

*Holds my arms out to my sides, phone gripped in one*
The things I do for goodwill, huh?
*Gathers into a blob of water and reforms standing up*

@System

Shinji: *waits for your arrival*

*Water vapor solidifies into vaguely human-shaped ice crystals around you, and then melt into my physical form*
Reporting for duty!

@Session

*Upon returning to the proper exit, you can see that not far down the exit, the road seems to be backed up to a stop with traffic, and the cars long since abandoned*

@System

Abby, on point as always with your arrival. No wonder Legend trusts you as much as he does. Thank you for your efforts. We're just waiting on the others, now. As long as we have at least a 4 man squad, we can start the mission and tag the others in when necessary. But this is it. The final push.

*runs my hand through my hair and looks up*

I can't believe it, tonights the night this nightmare finally ends.

*Appears at the location in a flash of lightning, appearing where it strikes with my hands in my coat pockets*

@souleaterfan320

How long has it been for you? A while, right?

@System

*laughs halfheartedly and in an exhausted manner*

A while is an understatement. This guy has been trying to kill me and my friends for the last... 3? 4 years? I've lost track. And for me specifically, he's been a pain in my ass since long before that. But it all ends tonight. No more.

@Galaxy Raider

Thank you for arriving so soon. We're waiting for at least one more before we dig into this. Are you ready?

@souleaterfan320

I’m as ready as I can be. I was hoping things would improve to a point where I’d have more help, but… Well, everyone’s gotta face some things alone I suppose.

About time, huh? Hope you're ready.

*Grins*
Alright Rea, hope this bucket of bolts holds up.
*Slams the accelerator and bolts toward a piece of relatively solid-looking scrap leaning against the median*

@Session

*The car jolts and lands with a huge thud, taking the landing well but seemingly not handling the inertia so well, skidding as it struggles to regain traction*
