I hated to be a pessimist, but after we got into the situation we were in, I couldn't help it. Oh hello there. I'm William Dunbar. (Yes, I'm getting a POV in this story, and you haters are gonna have to deal with it.) As of right now, we were in a jam...
Yumi: What do we do now?
Ulrich: I don't know, Yumi. I don't know.
William: Well, I hate to be the pessimist, but I can't help it. Every building, except for the airport, has been partially or completely destroyed. And that includes the banks, hotels and ATMs.
Ulrich: ATMs aren't buildings.
William: Don't cloud the issue with facts! We don't have enough money to get us home. We're stuck here!
Yumi: No problem. You can contact Odd and tell him about the situation we're in, right?
William: My phone's dead.
Ulrich: Aw bugger! Mine's dead too! The electricity is also down, we can't charge em!
William: Well, it could be worse... (part of the building crumbles) I spoke too soon, didn't I?
Ulrich: Yes, you did. William, I blame you for this!
William: Me? How is this my fault?!
Ulrich/William: You idiot! You always ruin everything!/ You jerk... You always forget that I'm innocent!
1st Man: Do you guys need some help?
After hearing his voice, we stopped arguing at once. I saw three men, all in white lab-coats, pants, long sleeve grey shirts, shades and black dress all wore the same white hat. I noticed one of them wore a black headband, had black hair and two of them looked identical to each other.
William: Oh, yes please.
Ulrich: Hold the phone. Who are you guys?
1st Man: We're just some Louisiana locals down here in New Orleans.
2nd Man: We've lived here for as long as we can remember. We just got back from a vacation in New York City, and noticed what happened here.
3rd Man: We decided to look to for any survivors and see if we could help them out. So what's the matter?
Yumi: We don't have enough money to get back our home in Paris, France. Me and my.. friends here need to get back there a-sap.
2nd Man: Why, what happened?
Yumi: I don't know. He didn't have enough time to tell me before my phone shorted out. But whatever the reason was, if Odd called us during our vacation, it had to be important.
Ulrich: And who are you guys?
3rd Man: Oh, I'm Alex. These friends are the twin brothers, Tod and Ted.
Tod: Nice to meet you.
Alex: We'll pay for your entire flight and your bags.
Ted: We'll even go with you to make sure you arrive there safely.
William: Wow, you guys are too kind.
Ulrich: No way are we... (Yumi covers his mouth)
Yumi: We'll need a minute or two. (she drags him off, they huddle in a triangle with William on the left, Ulrich on the right, Yumi on the bottom) Ulrich, what are you thinking?! This is our ticket back home!
Ulrich: I don't trust those guys. Something's... not right about them. I know it!
William: Two things; Ulrich, you're crazy, and second, Yumi's right.
Yumi: And besides, what other choice do we have?
Ulrich: Alright. But I won't be happy until me and Yumi are home safe and sound. (they turn around and face the locals)
Alex: Do we have a deal?
William: Yes. Take us to Paris, France.
Alex: Your wish is my command.
Ulrich: Uh, one question; How do we get out of here? The whole city's been flooded.
Alex: Don't worry young men, we came prepared.
