    As Jinny made her way towards the back, she could feel a heavy tension in the air with each step she took, yet it would not be enough to dissuade her. What she did not notice, Jamie would, which were the slight flickering of the lights, dimming Jinny's view of the two until she would have to be practically on top of them to see.

    A deep, menacing sense of dread quickly filled that part of the bus as the two lurkers remained quiet with Jinny's approach.
    Jamie frowned as she noticed the lights flickering, making the two back there harder to see. There was... something... going on with the two. She didn't know what exactly it was, or how they were doing that with the lights. Perhaps they and Toby Keith had set something up with the bus earlier?

    Whatever the reason, Jamie felt a sense of something dark and unnatural filling the back of the bus, it was so thick and pervasive.

Leaning his head back, he wondered if it was about time for a nap. He wasn't sure how much farther they had to go, but it couldn't have been too long.
    Jamie turned back to Miguel with a smile, glad for something to distract her from the wrongness in the back of the bus as she said "Even if it was basic, it was still a wonderful trick. Much better than anything I could do!"
    Critics who treat adult as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence.

    "What, like Greenland or something?" Gula asked as she somehow managed to skip over a myriad of more likely places that "up North" could possibly refer to in her mental leap to the Northmost. "They must really be good, then, if you've brought them with you this far. Anyway, unless someone's really sensitive to the smoke, I'm sure it'll be fine."

    As it seemed to be the thing to do, Gula stood to introduce herself.

    Jinny stood up to face Boris, "Does your mother have her own email account? That's all you need to set up an account for her. Either that, or set up a new email account and a new Twitter account for yourself and just let her keep using your old one."

    Glamour shots and I know she does those shots to show off the beauty of her body. Not really she uses my grand-uncle, her uncle's email account. It might as well be her email account, though," Boris said.

    Boris then takes Jinny's advice and sets up a Twitter account for his mother using his grand uncle's email address." Thanks for the advice Jinny ," Boris said.

    Boris then types a reply on his Twitter to his mother. Mother, I set up a Twitter account for you. Here's the link to it. twitter@Nastya- Glamour Model. Really you shouldn't result to Twitter for posting your model shots.

    Have someone design a website for you. You're a glamour model. I'm sure you can find a respectful Glamour model agency that will hire you, mother.

    Boris looks at Jinny." Hey Jinny, you wouldn't happen to know anything about modeling agencies?" What's a good modeling agency for my mother? Boris said.

    "The only models I've dealt with are Art Models, and most of them are undergraduates looking for extra cash. If your mother really wants to work as a model, she needs to put together a portfolio of pictures first. Then get an expreinced agent to represent her. That's about the only advice I can give."

    Jinny might have turned away from it, but there was no denying that those outbursts from the rear had opened up a pandora's box.

    As the others began introductions, Boris attempting his best to set up an account on a phone with no signal, and Vivian contributing to the decline of air quality in the bus, the menacing dread was growing ever more palpable.

    Lucy [REDACTED INFORMATION]


    While Lucy would see the same thing as Jamie -an unnatural light flickering in the back- she could sense something the others could not having long since grown used to sense of heavy paranoia. The sense of otherness was there.

    ... that and she might have been the first to glance out the window and notice that the bus was currently driving through the middle of a field.

    "It's a pleasure to meet you Gula." Jamie answered in response.

    Clearing her throat, Jamie said "I guess I'll go next. For those I haven't introduced myself to, my name is Jamie Valentine. I was born in Kickapoo, Kansas, but I currently live in a small city named Hell in Kentucky. I work as a nurse in a local hospital, and despite the reason I'm pleased to meet all my new brothers and sisters."

    Jamie swallowed thickly as the feeling of dread continued to fill the bus from the back where the two apparent loners were seated together.

    'I hope we reach our location soon. I really don't want there to be a fight or whatever they're planning on this bus.' Jamie thought nervously.

    " it could good for my mother to take up art molding. She's a master ventriloquist. She designs her own puppets and puts on shows. Taking up art molding could be good for her," Boris said.

    " It could be a good outlet to show off her wonderful puppet designs. It's too bad ventriloquists hardly make any money in Ukraine," Boris said.

    Distracted by the same unpleasant feeling she had when she went to the back of the bus, Jinny barely heard what Boris said. "Ukraine, you are from there?"

    John decided to go next, and spoke up from his seat next to Boris. "Hello. My name is John Goode, and I'm from Tennessee."

    His face, as usual, did not give away any emotion

    Leaning against the window and attempting to force himself to nod off, Miguel did a double take, glancing out the window. A field? Is this...

    "Is this like a short cut or something?" Miguel asked the bus driver, speaking his thoughts aloud. For whatever reason after he spoke, his head turned towards the back of the bus where those two ornery dudes was sitting. What exactly was their deal anyway, were they also related to the family. Either way, it began to make him a bit unnerved. "Yo, Toby Keith, is there an ETA for how long we've got 'til we arrive?" he asked, getting out of his seat and approaching the bus driver.

    "....." Lucy glanced out the window....aware for the first time that they were no longer on the road. A transport of this size shouldn't have left the road without some indication...that, and the dimming lights, and the slowly building pressure...were more then enough to set all her honed danger senses off.

    "Excuse me....what was your name...." Lucy asked Suzie, without making any noticeable outward gesture of realization. "...I'm sorry to impose...but do you think I could take the window seat? I'm feeling a bit nauseous and the scenery may clear my head a little...."

    Indistinctly, Suzie would barely hear the click of something before Lucy got up from the seat and stepped out to the center, seemingly intending to let the woman out.

    " Yes, I'm from Ukraine. More specifically, Zaporizhzhia, Zaporizhzhia Oblast. Ukraine is pretty much run by the Ukraine Mafia, and Zaporizhzhia is where their headquarters is located," Boris said.

    " Ukraine government likes to deny it, but any who digs further into Ukraine's government system. Knows that the Ukraine mafia is really the ones in charge of Ukraine," Boris said.
