Could you help me in finding my destination please? I seem to be lost." (Maxine)
Maxine turned to see the tall man dressed in dark clothing, she didn’t recognize him but then against she kept to herself “w-where you headed?” She asked avoiding his gaze, something she always did with strangers
“Well, I happened to be going to Vega but I think I took a wrong turn somewhere.” He tilts his head to the side “I know, you are probably thinking how could someone get lost looking for a city that big out in the middle of what has become no where but even I lose my sense of direction at times.”
Vega? She had heard rumors of the place, having grown up and been raised in another stronghold- granted it wasn’t as big as vega and most her street kids who lost their families when the world ended, it was one place that kept to themselves no trusting outsiders. Did he have business in such a place? or was he from there? part of her wished to travel but this world was dangerous, mainly for someone like herself
“….I-I can get you directions…I’ve never been outside this stronghold..s-so I’m sorry”
“That is fine with me if you would not mind me going with you, I would like to do a little bit of looking around here, see how everything goes.” Michael looks at her and smiles “I like leaning things just by meeting people and looking around, that seems to inform me better than talking to people.” He tilts his head to the side and glances back over his shoulder “Or maybe not by the way that people seem to be avoiding me for some reason.”
