and they take me away again

I leave the Ark behind through the new gate, dragging my new tires, something Sabine left me to repair, engine parts I scooped from the tower and more importantly my new wrench. Hopefully with al this I can make a good start on my dream. I love my new bus, though I do not love it being across the river. But if I can get my dream up and running it will be even better! Knowing new threats are in this world the better we are protected the better. And this wheeled armored vehicle needs a lot of work, but it will be beautiful!

It would also give me a good spot to put my stuff instead of in the Ark, I just know Steward keeps taking things from my space if he sees the chance. Though being connected to Lincoln and being on the same level in the Ark seems to have positive effects on his actions. I've been away a lot lately, but when I get back I am only missing small unimportant things.

Deep in thought and making some serious headway I hear a familiar voice calling out for me. Though I wonder how many times she called for me before I heard her. Rianna is standing next to me and gives me a friendly push to get my proper attention. It's time to leave again. No more working on my dream, though we were going to retrieve the bus and try to get it back to our Ark by way of the Pure Plant.

We make our way back to the Ark, grab food and drink for traveling and leave the stuff Sabine obviously wanted me to repair behind in my job done area. Almost forgot! I quickly grab the canister of fuel for the bus we found earlier in the north.

Back to the bus
It's still there! We made our way across the river with our raft and find the bus just where we left it. We take some time to lift the raft upon the bus and make sure it stays there with use of Rianna's rope. They were planning to leave the raft behind as if it has not proven it's worth already! Now that I think of it, maybe we should have taken some extra people with us to just take it back across the river and back to the Ark. Silly!

I lovingly speak to the bus as I enter it and make ready to depart and drive north. It takes me and my wrench a bit of jiggling but I get it to start up pretty easily. It will probably need proper taking care of to make sure it keeps on working.

The drive north is mostly uneventful as in parts the ground gets a lot better, more old roads, less dirt, and we try not to make stops to find out what can be found in the places we see. At least the word road is what Octavia gives it, guess she read that somewhere. A big building we see in the distance seems to be in good shape and a big solid gleaming pillar looks interesting as well. But the night we spent at the entrance of a big empty building, parked under an overhang of sorts was a lot worse. Large sucking wormlike creatures attacked us in the night, resistant to physical attacks, luckily good fighting skills, Rianna's fire and my acid make short work of it and we can continue our journey.

Back at the Pure plant
We knew we weren't going to be able to just drive the bus into the area of the Pure plant. Both it being on an island and it would probably scare them silly if a bus arrived on their doorsteps again without a warning. We decided to split up the group. Rianna, Finn, Flux and me would be taking the bus the long way around the island towards the south of the Pure plant. That way we would not have to leave our bus on this side and it would be less traveling when we were done here again. The rest would go straight to the island with the pure ones we rescued and without the scare of the bus.
