Just Leave Me Alone

[parker]

"So markus how many more points until the trail is complete."

[markus]

"It could very well be a lot, we just gotta get lucky with where the points are placed."

[parker]

"Ok sounds good, so markus I've been meaning to ask you man, how would you like the route to look. Like how efficient and stuff."

[markus]

"Well let's say we have a route set up and stuff, and we're just about to go on it. I would want it so that when we go around the whole route the amount of time that would take us to go around again would be the same amount of time it would take the point to reappear."

[parker]

"Oh I get it, so it's basically like a mail man's job, but instead we're always gonna be running on the same path, and instead of giving we receive."

[markus]

"Yeah basically, if anything we gotta at least get 10 to 7 more points to have an up and running route, we got 4 point locations at the moment but we should be able to get more soon."

[parker]

"Yeah I hope so. Markus I got a question I've been wanting to ask you."

[markus]

"Yeah what is it."

[parker]

"Why are you taking this test."

[markus]

"What do you mean by that."

[parker]

"No offense but you seem smart so you probably passed the written exam, the physical exam is mostly for those that don't pass the written one. So i was honestly wondering if you had a reason to take part in this."

[markus]

"No offense taken, if i was in your shoes I honestly would've asked the same question you did. Now to answer your question the reason i decided to take this test was to simply test out my strength. I'm definitely not the strongest person and probably never will be, but my main dream is to help others in need and protect the ones i love, And in order to protect others i have to be strong."

[parker]

"So you're doing this for your dream, that's nice to hear. I mean I'm also doing this for mine too but i failed the test from the get go with a 69 so I had to do this anyways."

[markus]

"That's a coincidence, well not really cause you failed the written exam but other than that we're both doing this for our dream. by the way no offense."

[parker]

"None taken after all it's my fault I failed the test anyways, but I do find it strange nonetheless."

[markus]

"Yeah it is a bit strange too, and a bit funny. But anyways I wanna ask you a question now, but only if you're ok with it yourself."

[parker]

"Sure what's the question."

[markus]

"What is your drive."

[parker]

"Huh."

[markus]

"What is driving you to follow your own dreams, what is the reas-"

[parker]

"I found a point mark, let's head over there now."

[markus]

"Yeah sure (did i say something wrong, did i do something bad. I shouldn't have asked that question)"

[parker]

"Now to answer your question, actually you should know what my dream is before I even tell you my own drive."

[markus]

"(oh i feel relieved right now) oh then what is your dream."

[parker]

"It's gonna be as simple as it gets, I just want to be strong. I was never strong to begin with, if anything you would have been stronger than me if i didn't train like hell. Markus I was never born with an ability, and after years and years of being told i had nothing in me by clairvoyance users i told myself that i'll just work for my power. All of the power I have at this moment was achieved by working and working, and my biggest drive was my mother. She was the reason why I ended up this way, I want to become strong for the sole purpose of making my ma and pa proud."

[markus]

"She taught you well, she reminds me alot like me mom."

[parker]

"Tell me about it man, I wanna know more about you ."

[markus]

Sure, well when I was a kid I was an asshole. I had very few friends but most of them couldn't deal with my shit anymore so they left me, my only true friend was my mom. She really cared for me and protected me. She always tried to connect with me, have fun with me, and be there for me.

"Hey mark wanna watch a movie with me tonight hun."

[markus]

"Nah i'm good, now leave me alone."

"Mark wanna go to the park and have lunch."

[markus]

"No you're gonna embarrass me, and why would I go with you."

"Mark wanna go shopping with me, it'll be fun."

[markus]

"No I wanna be alone."

"Mark you look sad, what happened."

[markus]

"Just leave me alone, I don't wanna talk to you."

[markus]

but I never listened to her or even acknowledged her. one day I was jumped by a bunch of kids after school.

"There's the punk."

"Stop running you loser

"Get him."

[markus]

I was only a block away from my house and tried to run for it, I was close to making it around the corner until a kid sent a blast of fire my way.

"I got you now."

[markus]

it was so close to hitting my face but then outta nowhere my mom came, and like always she protected me. She covered me and the blast hit her back. The kids ran away after seeing my mom coming to my aid.

"Oh no."

"Shit his moms here."

"Lets go."

[markus]

"and I finally realized how much of an asshole I really was."

[parker]

"Is your mom ok now."

[markus]

She's fine now but she still has the burn mark on her back.I broke down crying in her arms apologizing and apologizing for everything that happened. And then to calm me down she told me these unforgettable words.

"Hun remember, I'll always be here to protect you no matter what. You are my son after all,so don't feel sorry for what happened today."

[markus]

"And from that day forward my life had changed for the better. I finally opened up and instead of pushing everyone away I instead gave them a forced bear hug. And then I finally decided to protect instead of being protected."

[parker]

"That's incredible, she's an amazing person. I'm glad you changed for the better."

[markus]

"Thanks for that man, I appreciate it. oh nice there's another point."

[parker]

"Yay we got six points down, only a few more to go right."

[markus]

"Yeah basically."

[parker]

"Alright then let's keep on searching for them."

[markus]

"You got it."

[sainin]

"(what could they be up to)"

[ultima]

"It's nice to see that adrian is out there hunting for people while parker on the other hand isn't doing much but looking for points."

[sainin]

"Why are you so damn annoying."

[ultima]

"If you're mad then I'm happy, oh by the way Ima go use the bathroom."

[sainin]

"(she's finally leaving, if there's a god out there thank you) alright take your time."

[ultima]

"Just for that, I'll come back as fast as I can, ok bye."

[sainin]

"Bye (why is she so annoying, that doesn't matter right now. What matters is what parks team could be doing right now, it looks like they got a plan of some sort, whatever that plan may be i hope it works)"

[markus]

"This is good, we found another one park."

[parker]

"So how's the route looking."

[markus]

"It's starting to look pretty good, if anything we might need a 7 or 6 more then the route is complete."

[parker]

"Alright sounds good. Oh by the way markus do you know how many points we got."

[markus]

"We got 20 points from taking out that team and the bum from the beginning as well as another 20 from the points we've collected including the one we just found."

[parker]

"And what about the placement points."

[markus]

"Well they don't matter at the moment, because if there isn't an overall winner then those points would just be disregarded."

[parker]

"This test was oddly put together and it shows the more and more we think about it."

[markus]

"Yeah that's true, you would expect this test to be thoroughly thought out but it's not. It's as if someone put this together last minute last night."

[parker]

"Yeah i was thi- (why do i feel scared)"

[markus]

"Parker you good, you just went pale."

[elizabeth]

"Hey park."

[parker]

"(dammit) Hey liz."

[elizabeth]

"I hope you're ready."

[markus]

"Ready for what."

[elizabeth]

"You ready charlotte."

[charlotte]

"Ready when you are."

[elizabeth]

"Alright then, now to remind you parker, Give me everything you got."

[parker]

"Whatever you say elizabeth."
