"Of course dear," Aunt Loosa helps her into the car and gets into the car and turns it around.

Alyssa chucked her shotgun onto the rear seat. She rubbed her limbs vigorously, wondering how long the journey would take?

Aunt Loosa turns the car around and takes off down the road.

"Tell me what happened, what was down there?" she said in a soothing voice.

"More abominable cultists. I blew up a few of 'em," she intoned. "Auntie, I don't want to talk about it, just drive me home."

As you head down main street there are only a few buildings left, when out of no where someone runs in front of the car. Aunt Loosa slams on the breaks and narrowly avoids running over the poor woman.

You recognize her as the owner of the hardware store. She is holding an unlit stick of dynamite in her hand. She is covered in soot and blood. Her hair which had seemed so tidy before was sticking out everywhere.

Alyssa leaned out the car window. "What yah doing with the dynamite, miss?"

She looks at you, her eyes are a bit on the crazy side. "We didn't kill it, but we wounded it. I intend to finish it. Did you see where it went?"

"No--the quarry, maybe," she said unhelpfully. To Aunt Loosa: "Drive on."

Aunt Loosa looked at the girl then at Alyssa, "We have to help the poor girl. We can't just let her run in there to die like... like everyone else."
Aunt Loosa gets turns off the car and gets out, walking up to the girl, "Are you going to go running in there wild with a single stick and blow it up? Do you have a death wish?"

Christina dropped her hands to her side and started crying, "We can't just let it win," she sobs as the dynamite slips out of her hand and falls to the ground.

As if on queue, when the dynamite hits the ground a set of headlights comes into view behind you.

"I have a confession to make, Auntie, the others are still in the quarry. I ran away."

You can see Aunt Loosa's jaw tighten a bit, but otherwise her expression didn't change."I understand deary, I didn't even go down in that god forsaken place. But it looks like the others have followed you, here they come now. We can keep this between us," she says giving her a bit of a nod.
