Hi people, me again with yet another state story. I can't help myself, oh well. Like always I own nothing but my states and provinces personifications.
Two teenage boys watch a large lone military building in the Nevada desert from a nearby rocky hill, the shorter younger boy turns to his older brother who is dressed in desert camouflage, "Jersey, do you think this will work?"
Jersey turns and smiles before going back to his binoculars, "Relax New Mexico. No one knows we're here and by the time they figure it out." He laughs, "It will be all over YouTube."
New Mexico takes the binoculars from Jersey, "So what's the plan this time?" He watches a few small figures off in the distance and he ducks down to avoid being seen. "Damn men in black." He takes of his favorite yellow jacket and lays it next to him with the Zia symbol facing up.
Jersey slides down a little, hoping not to be seen, "We'll wait till dark and then sneak over, go under the gate and slip into a back door. Then get in, get out and race across Nevada's border before she finds us."
The sound of a gun cocking behind them makes their blood run cold as they slowly turn to see a tall young tan woman with arms folded with five heavily armed men behind her. She looks down through her sunglasses and smirks, "Too late boys. Game, set, match." She snaps her finger and all five men raise they're weapons. "Now Tse, I've told you time and time again." She grabs him by the collar, "Get the hell out of my state."
She drops him and turns to Jersey who stands slowly with his hands up, he can see the anger in his sister's deep black eyes, "Come on, Sis. We…We're on public land, you can't kick us out." He's grasping at straws hoping her friends aren't trigger happy.
Jersey slowly helps Tse up all the while both watch her for sudden movements, before she smiles at them, "I guess you two are right you are on public land…or should I say my land." She snaps her fingers again and they brace themselves for the end, "This is your one and only warning. But if you come back I swear I will shot you myself and if you survive, damn it I will shot you again."
The five men lower their weapons and all six watch the two boys as they race to their car. Neither talk until they're safe in the jeep, "Damn it, she's good." Jersey runs a shaky hand through his short light brown hair, "She's real good." He sits back trying to breathe, seeing his long life flash before his eyes.
Tse is grasping his jacket with his forehead on the dashboard, "God that was close…Bro I suggest we get the hell out of here before she changes her mind." Jersey turns the key and races away leaving a cloud of dust. "Bro I've seen her like this before, we wouldn't be able to get close for at least a week now."
The lone red jeep comes to a stop five miles down the road, "Yeah, so we'll have to think of something to do till then..." A smile slowly grows on Jersey's face, "Dude, the world conference thing is stating tomorrow, what about that?"
Tse shakes his head, "Are you nuts? Man, we can't just walk around with all those other countries there." He looks out the window and inhales, "Dude, start driving…Leo, Start driving NOW!"
Jersey looks back and floors it, "Shit, she's either making sure we leave or she changed her mind." He races away from the black van following them, "This is why we're going to the world conference, cause she wouldn't follow us there."
They watch the van, "Yeah, not only that but if she does, Dad will save us…hopefully."
The mid-morning sun is peaking through the blinds as the young tall blonde man lying on the couch listens to the soft guitar music coming from the seats next to him. The music stops for a moment, "Charlie?"
The young man's emerald green eye slowly opens, "Yeah?" He watches both younger states holding guitars, "We'll leave soon guys so until then just keep practicing."
Tennessee goes back to playing while Alaska just looks on, "What if they don't like us? Daddy's friends are really nice but…" She looks down as Tennessee stops playing again.
South Carolina sits up and smiles, "And who wouldn't like you? Now Tennessee…maybe but not you." Tenny sticks his tongue out as Alaska laughs. His cell phone rings and he quickly answers, "Yeah?...Hey Dad, yeah we'll leave now…see you soon." He pockets his phone and stands, "Alright, guys just a quick stop and then straight to the conference building, a few more want to come." He watches his younger siblings race to the car and smiles, but inside he has the same fears. But it's not Alaska he's worried about but more himself and his past. He grabs his keys and takes a deep breathe, "Well, if Dad can do this than I can too."
Canada looks up at his tall daughter while packing his bag, "Marie are you sure you don't want to go?" The blonde teen nods her head and he sighs, "Okay, then." He finishes packing and kisses her cheek.
She follows him out into the living room where her younger siblings are siting waiting to go, "Edward? You're going too?"
The pre-teen looks up and smiles, "Of course, I can't let Clara have all the fun." The smaller girl lets out a laugh, "I want to meet this great Grand-pere guy too." He looks around somewhat confused, "Hey, Dad did you see where I put my manga?"
His older sister sighs, "Honestly Edward, why do you read all that stuff?"
He looks at her with a look of shock, "Stuff? Quebec that's not just stuff, it's awesome." He spots his books under the couch, "Never mind Dad I found it." He crams it into his bag and all three walk out the door leaving Quebec alone.
She sighs as she sits down on the couch, "Papa's really going to have his hands full with those two…" She pulls out her own book and starts to read.
