How it came to pass

"A new job. I could get a new job." Mitchell paced up and down the sitting room of the house in Bristol which he shared with his best friend George, and the resident ghost and of course tea maker, Annie.

"What kind of job?" Annie asked him suspiciously. It was all very well them trying to live normal human lives, but there were some things that were just not possible where vampires and werewolves were concerned.

"...I could be a bus driver." Mitchell answered finally.

"Completely and utterly out of the question."

"Why not? You worked at a pub once."

"So?"

"So you're a ghost, Annie. People shouldn't have even be able to see you, never mind being served drinks by you. So tell me why exactly i cannot be a bus driver."

"One word." Annie sank down into the sofa and motioned for Mitchell to sit beside her. This was obviously going to be a long discussion. "Mirrors." He stayed standing, and looked at her blankly. "When the other bus drivers realise that they can't see you in their mirrors, when it looks like the number 32 is driving itself to the city centre, how do you think they will react? So no, Mitchell, there is no way you are going to be a bus driver."

"Fair do's." Oh. That was easier than Annie ever thought it was going to be. "But I just feel like I'm stuck here, wasting my life-my very long life, but still-away. How much longer is this going to go on for?"

"Is this about what happened with Herrick?"

"Herrick? No...no. It's just, I feel like I need to get away."

Annie looked at him for a second, an idea growing in her mind. It seemed silly at first, but the more she thought about it, the more it made sense. For some reason Mitchell felt he had something lacking in his life, she, although she had never admitted it, was dying to get out of the house where she had both lived and died for so many months, and George? He would go along with it too. Okay, he might grumble a bit, but it would do them all good. It was just what they all needed.

"I've just had the best idea. And don't you say no before you even know what it is." she warned him, as he began to open his mouth in a suspiciously 'about to say no' like way. "Letsgoonaroadtrip." she finished in a rush, excitedly.

"You what?"

"Lets. Go. On. A. Road. Trip."

And that was how it came to pass, that that very night, a vampire, a ghost, and a werewolf, set out on the open road in an old battered car, armed with a map and a single suitcase filled to the brim.

ROADDD TRIP! XD Review, or I shall send the Old Ones to get you :P
