14 : RV : Runaway Vehicle.
Seth and his mates finally reached Vegas after a very long trip, they all agreed to lay low until they've triggered the plan, the plan used to fight back and seek revenge against the real traitors. they stopped in one of the mountains on the desert near the city to discuss the details.
"it's hot and we need fuel..this thing isn't gonna stay working forever you know" Wade complained.
"shit, what did i ever do to get myself into this mess" Veronica said.
"you stole our fucking painting" Dean said as he layed in the backseat listening to them, Paige also remained in the car.
"i should've let him put a bullet in your fucking head" she replied.
"guys..we need to get along..who knows how long this'll be..but we're not fully ready to face anyone and we can't risk getting back on the grid and let our friends' blood in vain" Seth said.
"we just have to blend in" Wade said.
"the best thing about Vegas is that everyone else minds their own business" Dean said.
Wade walked to the car and popped the hood, letting it cool off.
"i swear! this heat is messing with the car..it's too hot!" Wade said "i'll just go and find a nearby petrol station" Wade said as he walked down the mountain.
"that'll be a long walk.. Seth said as he sat on the driver's seat and tapped the steering wheel. Dean remained on his back and stared on the car roof.
"i can't fucking believe you thought i was a traitor" Dean mumbled and Seth looked at him.
"i thought we were over this"
"we are NOT over this..in fact, this is just started for me. you believed Jack and nearly killed me in the process, you're a fucking dick, you know that?"
"yeah..i do know that.." Seth nodded.
"good..now i don't have to remind you"
"guys..don't start fighting..it's over with..it's done, stop bringing up what's happened. i just think we need to focus on what's coming and now i'm stuck with two idiots who are fighting like 5 year old girls" Veronica told the two men.
"again..why did you bring her?" Dean asked.
"i really don't know"
"well, too bad. you morons are stuck with me and Paige, whether you like it or not" Veronica said.
Seth's cellphone suddenly rang and he picked up, wondering who it could be. but prayed that their game was still rolling.
"hello?" he said .
"Seth? it's me AJ..it's done..now the local police department has you as deceased subjects." she said.
"oh..i can't thank you enough..is this phone tapped?"
"you're welcome and no, i used a payphone. just get some new identities and destroy this cellphone. i'll be seeing you soon i hope..take care and goodbye" she hung up.
Seth threw the phone off the cliff and then smiled at his friends.
"it's done..we're dead" Seth said.
"great!" Paige smiled. "finally something we did payed off"
"i think we're a good team" Seth nodded "you girls care to join us? we could use talented women like you"
"sure! we'd love to" Paige grinned and looked at Veronica who rolled her eyes.
"c'mon..look..i know we got off the wrong foot i can't change that but i can change the fact of how we treat you" Seth said to Veronica.
"like an obnoxious bitch that you are" Dean said.
"you little snotty asshole, you're not a joyful ride yourself" Veronica replied.
Seth slapped his forehead in defeat and nodded lightly.
"okay..let me put this in another way. you have no one else and you have to stick with us and i can't let you walk away cause' of the huge risk. i don't want you killed, in fact i don't want anyone else here killed, you're all the people i have left to trust and i hope we can work as a team one day. but now, we have to start a new life in order to lay low. that means no robberies, fights or anything else. do anything to avoid getting in the media, cause remember, Jack might be watching the news for whatever's new. so, please..all i'm asking for is to calm down a bit..just till we find a place to stay" Seth said and they nodded.
after a few hours, Wade was back and got a container and some water bottles, he gave them the water bottles and opened one, using it to cool down the car's engine, they were on the move in no time, searching for a place to stay, they across Eastland Heights, a small town just outside of Las Vegas. Seth decided that it would be safer to remain outside the city. Wade drove around the city and they looked for houses to rent, as a temporarily shelter.
"ugh, we'll never gonna find a place here" Veronica exhaled.
"why don't we just take a house and claim it as our own? that would be more suitable than renting a place. what do you guys think?" Dean said. "just stop here and see if this works"
"Dean, i don't think that would be helpful at all" Seth said.
"how about we buy a trailer?" Wade said.
"buy one?" Seth asked.
"yeah, look. they're having sales over there and we can hook it up to the car and move it around"
"genius idea" Paige said.
"thank you"
"no way, i'm not living some on the move hillbilly" Dean said.
"it's our only shot. let's see if this idiot takes diamonds for exchange of a decent trailer" Seth said as he grabbed the bag out of the glove box and got out of the car.
"my diamonds' Veronica said sadly.
"it's fine..we'll get more" Paige said as she soothed her friend.
Seth walked to the guy and looked around.
"nice stuff you got here" he said.
"thank you..wanna buy something?"
"yeah..i want your biggest trailer"
"can you pay for it?"
"i think i can"
the man walked to a big trailer and pointed at it then looked at Seth.
"does this work?"
"it does for me..do you accept diamonds?"
"real ones?" the man's eyes widened.
"yes..real ones..say, i'll give you two and you give me that one. deal?"
"sure!"
Seth made the exchange and signaled Wade to back up the car to hook it up with the trailer, he did so and moved Dean to the trailer bed and the two girls followed. Seth got in the car with Wade and he drove.
"let's find a good spot for us to park in, behind a house or whatever" Seth said as Wade nodded.
"hey.. Paige.." Dean said and she looked at him. "i never got to thank you..you know..for watching out for me"
"it's fine" she flashed him with a warm smile "i had to do it"
"i appreciate it..i owe you one" he smiled back at her.
"it's no problem"
"guys..stop being so weird..and focus..remember what Rollins said." Veronica interrupted as Dean rolled his eyes.
