Welcome to Minecraft! You'll Never Leave...
I'M BACK BABY!
Eight days...
man I really need to just sit in bed, and do nothing after that trip. But, I'm posting this. It's been a while, so I hope you enjoy!
Chapter 5
"So where are we going to look?" Mitch asked. I opened the note I found.
Central NY be there in 10 days at 9.
I checked if there was a date. It was two days back.
"I think we have a lead." I said, and handed Mitch the note.
"How far is New York?" I thought about it, then rested my head on the steering wheel.
"It's across the country. It's going to be a long drive." I lifted my head.
"How about before we leave we spend the night at my place. You look tired." I looked at myself in the mirror. I've been driving around so much I have bags under my eyes. I nodded.
"You can take your car, and drop it off there." I said, and Mitch nodded.
"Sure." He opened the car door, and unsnapped his seatbelt.
Fatigue suddenly hit me like a wave. My eyes drooped, and my head fell forward.
"Seto!" Mitch said, and caught my head before it smacked into the steering wheel. I struggled to stay conscious.
I vaguely remember getting out of my car, and sitting in the passenger seat of Mitch's car. I passed out after that.
I woke up in a bed. I lifted my head. "Huh? What happened."
"You were tired." Mitch said, causing me to jump.
"How long have you been here?" I asked still half asleep.
"Not long. I just heard you moving around." He said.
"What happened?"
"I think all the sleep deprivation caught up to you." He said. I thought of one big question.
"How long was I out?"
"Not long a few hours maybe."
I stood up, but the world started spinning. I sat down. Mitch handed me a glass of water. I finished it off in about four gulps, and coughed. "Don't kill yourself. You're vital to this investigation!" I smiled. The dizziness slowly became less and less intense until it was only a small ache in the back of my head.
"Let's go." I said.
"Woah! You need to relax."
"I can't relax! Ty and Adam are somewhere, and we don't know how to find them!"
"Your well-being is important too Seto!" I sighed.
"Fine. Do you have a GPS?"
"Yeah." He fished out of the dresser.
There was the sound of a door being slammed open. I stood up, grabbed a baseball bat, and shoved Mitch into a closet with me.
"How'd you know I had a baseball bat?"
"I didn't. It was the closest thing I could find." I whispered. Mitch nodded. Heavy footsteps were coming our way. I readied the bat. The door opened, and I swung. They didn't go down immediately, but he started swaying, then collapsed.
"That was awesome!" Mitch said. I put the bat down, and smiled.
"Thanks. Now let's go."
"What?"
"We need to go." I grabbed my backpack, and checked to see if I still had my notebook.
"Why?"
"That guy is down, but when he wakes up he's not going to be happy with the guys who knocked him out!"
"Wait! Are you okay?"
"I just swung a bat at someone, and you're asking if I'm okay?!" Mitch laughed. I slipped my shoes on.
"Get whatever you need I'll be outside!"
"I'm driving!" I just nodded. We could have this conversation later.
I ran out the door, and sat in the passenger seat of my car.
"My car?" I looked it over. There was one of those things you use to hook up to cars so you can tow one. I'd have to thank Mitch later. Right now Mitch was running out the door with a backpack slung over his shoulder.
He pulled open my car door. I handed him my keys. "New York?"
"Yes." I said, and we backed out.
"GET BACK HERE!"
"Go, go, go, go, go, go!" I said, and Mitch sped the car up. Something hit the back window. "I don't want to know." There was a breaking sound. "Can you drive faster?" Mitch floored it.
"In two miles turn left."
"So, New York." I said.
"Yeah." Mitch yawned.
"You want me to drive?"
"No. I'm-" Yawn, "fine."
"You know. I need to use the bathroom." Mitch groaned, and looked at the gas gauge.
"The gas is low anyway."
He pulled up in a gas station, and when he wasn't looking I swiped the GPS, and ran to the bathroom. I typed the nearest hotel location. I washed my hands, and returned the GPS to its rightful location.
"U-turn ahead."
"Huh?" Mitch asked, but made the turn anyway.
"In twenty yards turn right, and your destination is on the right."
"Did I pass out?" I stayed silent while Mitch parked.
"Stay here." I said, and opened the door. "I need a hotel for the night." I said.
"Okay." The receptionist said, and handed me the key.
"Thanks." I walked outside. "I got a hotel room."
"Okay." Mitch said, and followed me in.
He collapsed on the bed when I unlocked the door.
"You know we're not in New York right?"
"What?!" I laughed.
"You were tired, and you're needed for the investigation so I reprogrammed the GPS." Mitch sighed, and disappeared under the covers.
I yawned, and manned the other bed. "Night." No response. I lowered the pitch of my voice. "Goodnight Seto."
"I don't sound like that!" I laughed.
"Goodnight Mitch." His voice was really high, but I didn't respond.
I was too tired.
So, there's a lead! But is it a real lead, or is it a trap? Until next time. Later Legends!
