Chapter One: Questions and Answers

   As Lucky and Ed stood there in surprise they saw the barrel of a gun poking through the loose tiles. Without a word they dropped their weapons. The gun barrel drifted to the open door and then back towards them. They took the message and strolled backwards out of the room. They heard the sounds of someone climbing down and waited to see who had gotten the drop on them. 

They both gasped slightly as a young, blond girl came out of the room. Picturing in their minds something way worse it didn't cut down on the fact they had a Mossberg shotgun pointed at them! It was fixed with a pistol grip and by the way she held it seemed as calm as possible. Dressed in camoflouge her eyes pierced them slowly. Her blue eyes had seen a new world and not hidden from it.

"Seriously?, you couldn't just steal some shit and hit the road? That crawl space is not the most comfortable thing to be hiding in." She was shaking the dust out of her hair and not looking happy. "As if it wasn't enough I had to see your wrinkled old asses changing?"

Still dumbfounded as what to say Ed sighed.He was being detained by a teenager who looked like she should be at cheerleading practice. Finally raising his hands Ed muttered "Sorry our bad we've been in..." but before he could finish she shisshd him. Looking even more annoyed she gestured to some overturned plastic chairs. Taking their seats they felt like clueless children. Whatever this girl had been through she was more adult than child. 

Grabbing some odd art supplies and markers she waited for a second before speaking. Finally , as her face seemed to change and choose her words, she walked forward extending her fist. "My name now is Falcon, I say now ,because we are now living in what I call the North Country Triangle." As they fistbumped Ed and Lucky introduced themselves.

Her emphasis on the word now and directness seemed to come from a much older person within. They both figured before all this Falcon was probably old inside. Either way it was obvious they needed answers. Sipping on water they listened as Falcon continued.

"Before all this I was planning on studying foreign relations and maybe going into politics. My father is a former Air Force pilot and resident of Spain. Since my parents are divorced I often took planes by myself to visit him. I also wanted to be an artist and would amuse myself for hours by drawing on them. I mention this because of the recent events. I am cataloging all the creatures that are now in our presence. I figure knowing as much as we can about them only helps in living among them." As she stopped to see the impact of her talk Ed and Lucky clapped. Ed had been at his share of business meetings. It was as formal as anyone had ever done. It almost made him feel more normal. Lucky drank his bottle of water and seemed transfixed.
