The group marches through the woods. They walk through a clearing.
"Is this entire state uphill?" Murphy complains
"According to this map, we're in the Black Hills of South Dakota," Warren says
"I miss the truck," Cassandra complains
"At least we're out of that damn horde."
"There's nothing to kill out here," 10k complains
"Fine by me."
"I'm bored." Ace mopes
"Find something interesting," Warren says
"We need to find a place to make camp soon. My dogs in getting tired." Doc says
"Well, there's supposed to be a little town nearby called Edgemont. I'll take a compass reading at this next ridge up here." Warren says
"Can't we just take a break?" Doc asks
"A quick one."
Ace flops onto the ground. She spreads her legs out and slams her back against the ground.
"Oh my god. Look." Cassandra says looking into the distance.
"Now who in the hell did that?" Warren asks
"Some daredevil with a sick sense of humor," Doc says
"Is that Mount Rushmore?" 10k asks
"This is why we can't have nice things," Murphy says
"Probably the same jackass that tagged the liberty bell."
"I think it's awesome," 10k says
"It's sweet." Ace agrees
Doc pushes them disappointed and Warren laughs.
"If I ever catch who did that, they're gonna get a whoopin'." Warren says "come on. Let's find that town. It's gonna get dark soon."
"I thought we were taking a break," Murphy says upset
"Break times over."
Ace rolls off her butt and continues to follow.
The group walks around pushing their way through trees and walking up hills. Warren wanders with her head down and a compass and map in hand.
"We've been walking for hours," Murphy complains. "Admit it, Columbus, you're lost."
"Give it a rest, Murphy. Warren knows Where she's going." Doc shouts at Murphy.
"You know where you're going, Warren?" Doc asks Warren
"Well, we should've hit the town by now," Warren says
"For the record, Columbus was lost when he discovered America, genius." Ace says
"Yeah and look how that turned out," Murphy says
"Check this out," 10k says
They look to a building with a small truck sitting in front. It looks like a small storage unit.
"That's not a town."
"Well not being Doctor Brightside for the moment, maybe there's something useful inside," Doc says
"Yeah. Let's check it out." Warren says
They wander to the building. It's an empty area with nothing in sight.
"Oh, just like home."
"You know what, this actually might be a safe place for us to get some rest and load up on supplies," Warren says
