..and having to leave it behind..
This place, it's filled with so much goodness! I want to touch it all, play around with it all, take it with me! Would I stay behind if these people treated men a little bit better? Would I become worthwhile enough to them if I could show my skills? No even if I convinced this Chairman I would not be in the correct place. My people need me, Sabine needs me, Rianna needs. Although that might be the other way around.. And then there is Jo-Ann, is there a need of some sort?
I need to focus, at least that's what the others tell me. We need the vehicle to move to be able to leave. Could I make it work? I quickly grab some random things from the shelves and put them in my pockets. I ask Tesla to load things aboard. Tesla nods in agreement as I make my way towards it. Apparently she trusts me to get it working? I cannot disappoint her, it gives me a glowing feeling inside, a warm buzz of some kind. That's it! I will call this thing a buz from now on, maybe bus?
I am thwarted at first to get inside of the bus. It has an obvious door, but no obvious way to open it. As I look inside I can see some kind of mechanism attached to the door. That will obviously open it, but there should be a way to open it from the outside as well, right? Ah well, no time to waste on that now. We climb inside through a window and quickly move the mechanisme to open the door. Awesome! Next up, let's get this beast moving!
I'm not so sure how this works, but I start to look around at what might be needed and use what I learned about my own dream vehicle at home. Which was surely not a bus, though the armor plating on this one made it look like the one I have at home. I've been playing and theorizing about making that one move for quite a while now. I suddenly notice I still have one of the devices I grabbed from the shelves earlier still in my hand. It's some kind of big spanner with a movable head. I notice a small hole beside the steering wheel and it seems to be able to rotate, but it looks a lot like the lock I found a way back. But I had no tool to put inside to make it work. Guess this is the time to brute force it a little bit, I should be able to set my new spanner around the mechanism instead and then twist and turn it into the correct position. The engine suddenly roars into life and I squeal a bit with enthusiasm. I made it work!
Next challenge! It rumbles, but it also needs to actually move. Those pedals under the wheel should do something and that big poke beside the chair. The poke obviously moves a lot easier with the left pedal in the downwards position. The middle pedal doesn't seem to do anything and the right just makes it roar and shows a dial going into red. It takes a while and with a little help and the poke in some kind of state we make the thing move forwards as I push the right pedal downwards. Making sure the dial stays out of the red I make the bus start moving towards the gate. It moves! It's mine!
Home, here we come!
We move, but the gate is still closed! I'm sure I do not remember all things correctly, it was a buzz of confusion. I know there were flames involved coming from our bus. I know I jumped out of the bus to redo the trick of starting the gate-bus the same way I learned earlier. I know Octavia and Rianna took over the driving for a bit. I know Lincoln helped me with the other bus and I helped him get back into the bus when the gate was open. But in what order and how that actually went I do not know anymore. But we were out of the camp and on the way home.
I had no idea where home actually was, so I trusted the others and made sure the bus kept moving in the correct direction. There was a big discussion on what route we should follow, back to the boat or first to the Pure Plant. Apparently we saved people from there as well, I didn't even notice that! I wanted to go to the Pure Plant, but I guess not for the same reasons as some of the others. I don't really care too much about the Pure Ones, but that was the only logical route to bring back my bus to our home.
Guess I got out voted and we didn't go to the Pure Plant. They could have sent me anywhere, I wouldn't have known till we got there. But the river was a good clue where we were I guess. We made our way towards the water and quickly learned my boat was gone! Did we leave it in the water? Surely not! Whatever it was, it made the discussion of the way back flame up again.
Luckily Lincoln wasn't going to give up that easily, he took it upon himself to wade downriver. And he actually found the boat! It was stuck in the water, but in good health!
Was I going to have to leave my bus behind? What if it was found by others again?
