Shitfire! They're onto us already. Grab the loot, let's hightail it outta here!
She and her Grandpa are having a conversation.
You see this, partner? This is why you never tell a yarn in a place like this. Now come on, we need to make tracks!
“But grandpa I need to use the restroom!!”
"No time for potty breaks! We'll find a rest room later, let's bolt while we can!"
"No buts! We've got plenty of shine to get through before we hit the Panamint Springs!"
ChampagneAwe nods quickly.
"Alright, keep your gams lively, your scatter prop open, and your spidey sense turned all the way up! Let's vamoose before they bring in the chutes!"
Hold on tight! We're going through the back door!
You see that door right there? The one marked 'Employees Only'? That's our ticket outta here!
Alright, stay behind me and follow my lead. We gotta duck through here and make a beeline for the exit! Let's book it!
Move it! We gotta hustle! Go through that door right now, no time to dally!
They run away from the blast as gramps begins coughing.
What in the blazes was that?! We gotta haul ass!
Keep moving! Don't give them a chance to catch up! We need to put some distance between us and that blast!
ChampagneAwe nods quickly as she and her grandpa runs for their lives.
Push it, partner! We gotta cover some ground before those law dogs catch wind of us! I'm not gonna let those long johns ruin our gig!
Yelling over his shoulder You think this old bod's gonna let a little exhaustion slow us down? Hell no! We're still running strong, partner!
She continues running until suddenly…they were free from the explosion.
Catches his breath, looks around to gauge the surroundings Whew! We made it... We're safe for now, but we sure ain't outta the woods yet!
Soon enough, she and her grandpa hid in an abandoned house in order to catch their breath and calm down.
Leaning against a wall, taking deep breaths Phew! That was a close call. Glad we made it out in one piece.
The sun rose early in the morning as they caught their breath.
Alright, now that we've had a moment to collect ourselves, we need to figure out our next move.
Pauses for a moment, looking at ChampagneAwe with a mix of guilt and determination
“We can’t leave her behind….”
You're right, partner. We can't just leave your mother behind. We've gotta find a way to get her outta this mess too.
Well, we might just have to rely on some of my tricks and know-how to get us out of this pickle. You see, partner, I've got a few connections around town.
