"...before anyone drives... where are we going?" Kris keeps the keys in her pocket

**Wes** Thu Dec 03, 2009 11:24 pm

"head west, towards the coast."

**GeneralArin** Thu Dec 03, 2009 11:25 pm

"West. The same way we were earlier." Jake said simply. "We can wing it from there."

**Kristina** Thu Dec 03, 2009 11:27 pm

"Alright. And no Jake you can't drive." Kris pulled out the keys and got in the drivers seat

**GeneralArin** Thu Dec 03, 2009 11:29 pm

"What? But it was my turn!"

**Kristina** Thu Dec 03, 2009 11:49 pm

"When did I say that?"
(no seriously since when?)

**GeneralArin** Fri Dec 04, 2009 12:06 am

"I called it next!"

(u didnt, i really just called it ^^)

**Kristina** Fri Dec 04, 2009 8:19 am

"I don't recall that... sooooo i am still driving." She puts the key in the ignition and starts the truck

**Wes** Fri Dec 04, 2009 5:52 pm

Wes got in the front seat, since Jake had it last, and reached back behind to get her stuff.

**GeneralArin** Fri Dec 04, 2009 6:40 pm

Jake gave an irritated grunt. "Okay but I call it next for sure."
With that he hopped into the back and dug his laptop out of his stuff and turned it to touch screen mode so he could jot down any notes while the truck was moving.

**Kristina** Fri Dec 04, 2009 6:48 pm

She quickly put the truck in drive and got back on the road.

**GeneralArin** Fri Dec 04, 2009 7:13 pm

Ignoring the bumps in the road Jake first jotted down the prophecy with a space between the lines.
'2 Weeks set upon the shore,
One decides the fate of war,
Demigods shall take the bait,
And must face recriminate,
Fate starts much like the typhoon,
Ending in darkness just like the moon.'

He thought for a moment and after the first line added:
Possibly the west coast, near San Fran?

Then after some more thought he wrote after the third line:
Beware of Traps

Then at the bottom of the screen he wrote:
Hidden Danger

"We need to be wary, I dont like the sound of this prophecy." Jake shouted up front to the others.

**Wes** Fri Dec 04, 2009 9:27 pm

"Well, yeah, anything ending in darkness dosent sound to happy...."

**GeneralArin** Fri Dec 04, 2009 9:29 pm

"Yah? Well what do you think of it Ms Apollo-kid?"

**Wes** Fri Dec 04, 2009 9:32 pm

"What? i agree with you~it doesnt sound good and we need to be cautious."

**GeneralArin** Fri Dec 04, 2009 10:09 pm

"No- that was an honest question.(too much sarcasm i guess)What do you think it means?"

**Wes** Fri Dec 04, 2009 10:18 pm

"Well now Jake, that defeats the purpose, the meaning is only clear through the search."

**GeneralArin** Fri Dec 04, 2009 10:21 pm

"I said what do you *think* not to ask what it means."
(line stealer.)

**Wes** Fri Dec 04, 2009 10:25 pm

(i changed it tho ^^)
"if i tell you what i think, wheres the fun?" Wes replies in a teasing tone with a grin.

**GeneralArin** Fri Dec 04, 2009 10:28 pm

Jake made a gun motion at Wes then returned to his notes.

**Wes** Fri Dec 04, 2009 10:58 pm

"Jake, all i really know, or assume, is that in 2 weeks, we should be on the west coast. For all we know, it could be *them* taking the bait, so we can predict, but..."

**GeneralArin** Sat Dec 05, 2009 4:23 pm

Jake thought about that for a moment.
"Hmm... that does have a double meaning..." He jotted down Wes's idea under the line Demigods take the bait
"Personally I'm more worried about the 'Fate starts much like a typhoon' line, that says that it comes suddenly and strongly- maybe even in clear skys."

**Wes** Sat Dec 05, 2009 7:53 pm

"hmm...yeah, that sounds real bad. Well, we should think of the worst first, so we're prepared for the worst."

**GeneralArin** Sat Dec 05, 2009 8:05 pm

"Well, I have that it could mean that there's hidden danger and a trap somewhere on the west coast probably near San Fran." Jake said, summing up his thoughts.

**Wes** Sat Dec 05, 2009 8:12 pm

"Hmm...yeah, that sounds...reasonable."
