" I heard you on the wireless back in fifty two
Lying awake intent at tuning in on you „

A light blue hippie van pealed down the highway, music blasting out from the rolled down windows. Driving was a male brunette, his red-tinted sunglasses paired with a striped button down. Next to him, in the passengers seat, a was another brunette. The other brunette had on a white crop top and a pink cardigan, her hair tied back into a ponytail.

" Video killed the radio star
Pictures came and broke your heart „

Both of the teens belted along with the music, practically yelling over it. The weapons sitting in the backseat rattled around, the reckless driving threatening them to fall. The boy slowed down as he entered the city.

The music was turned down and the widows were rolled up so less attention was brought to them and the large van. "What are you feeling for lunch, Soph?" The boy asked. Sophia thought for a second, her gaze getting drawn towards three, tired kids getting on bikes.

"Look, they seem so tired-" Sophia's face lit up as an idea crossed her mind, "Mitch, can they come on the road trip with us!?" Mitchell squinted at the trio, trying to see what their deal is. "Why not, the more the merrier!"

The three kids left their hotel room, making their way back to their bikes. They have been riding for the past three days, quite a few stops and trading of positions in between. Lincoln had found himself on the handle bars a lot, purely due to him being the youngest of the three. He was constantly complaining about how unfair it was, both him and Zeus were 5'6 and Mayline was only 5'1- so why couldn't he ride alone.

All of them slept in, anxiety and lack of proper medication keeping them awake late into the night. "It's too early for this shit," Zeus whined, wrapping the stolen hotel blanket tighter around himself. "It's 10 a.m.-" Mayline pointed out, rubbing the droop out of her eyelids.

Lincoln quietly leaned against the side of the building, his eyes trained on a large light blue van that had just entered the city. "Lincoln- hello? Lincoln~" Zeus waved his hand in the other boy's face. "Lincoln you're pedaling first, I don't feel like exercising this early."

The van pulled up next to the trio, everyone immediately grabbing their weapons and preparing to attack. Mitch rolled down the window with a friendly smile on his face, "Y'all need a ride? We're on our way to Canada," he leans back when he says 'we're', showing Sophia.

    Lincoln squints at the two strangers, skeptical of them. "We have-" Sophia digs through her backpack, looking for something useful, "-drugs?" Mitchell swatted at Sophia's bag, making her put it away.

"Do you have heating?" Zeus asked, Mitch responding with a nod, "then I'm in!" He opens the side door, quickly hopping in and claiming a seat in the back. Mayline shrugs, following his lead and climbing in.

Lincoln hesitated, looking back and forth between his bike and the car. "Can we strap the bike to the roof?" He asked, protectively gripping the handle. "Yeah sure!" Mitch hops out of the car, easily setting the bicycle on the roof and tying it down. "There. Now get on in, we're planning on grabbing some lunch then driving a few cities over."

Zeus quickly get comfy in his chair, the hotel blanket still wrapped around him. Lincoln joins him at the back of the van, leaving a seat between them. Mayline and Sophia excitedly talk to each other, both being deprived of female contact.

Mitchell turns up the radio, bouncing along to the music as he speeds onto the road.
