OOC, I thought the car had turned into a truck? Please decide - car or truck.

"If there's no other option, I could sit on your lap," Henry offers Font. Anything to stop him from being squished in between the others!
Re: Chapter 3: Now It Begins
“Well I must say, I wasn’t intending to be forward.” Agrees Fort, slightly hurt; these American girls are taking a little bit of getting used to.
“You can certainly sit on my lap, old chap; rather that then the other way around!” He says to Henry and he squeezes into the car, forcing all the others to breath in and move up. He makes room for Henry.

"Well, I don't mind a walk in the woods. You've gotten us the better part of the way already." Harrison offers. "I'm not going to run to keep up but I can follow the path."
Life is a tragedy to those who feel
Life is a comedy to those who think
Life is a fantasy to those who game

Re: Chapter 3: Now It Begins
Bruce waited patiently while his passengers sorted themselves out, the suspension creaking as they climbed over and/or sat upon one another.
Once everyone was settled, he put the car in gear and drove on.

Alice keeps her eyes open as they get closer to the bridge.

Emily keeps an eye out as Bruce drives, wondering if Henry Atwater, or whoever he is, might come here.

”I certainly hope so!” said Bruce, who was wrestling with the steering. He was privately worried if his car’s suspension was up to the task.
Re: Chapter 3: Now It Begins
Once the companions have sorted themselves out, the vehicle continues bouncing down the overgrown, rutted track. Bruce maintains a constant speed, but owing to the undergrowth it is difficult to get a good view of the road ahead. The occupants, cramped together and thrown around, begin to doubt the wisdom of their decision.

“Oh confound this for a game of soldiers! Stop the car and let me out.” Fort calls to Bruce.
“I reckon I’ll get along quicker under my own steam. And it will be less painful for all concerned.”

”Just wait a minute!” Bruce said irritably, the effort of steering the overloaded car making him short-tempered. Up ahead, something caught his eye, and he eased off on the accelerator as he tried to work out what it was.

Re: Chapter 3: Now It Begins
Bruce stepped on the brake sharply, bringing the car to an abrupt stop.
”Sorry folks!” he said in response to cries of consternation from his passengers, ”But it looks like we’re all walking from here.” He switched off the engine, pulled on the hand brake and climbed out of the car to take a closer look at the sign.

Emily lets out an audible sigh of relief as she slithers out of the car. She joins Bruce at whatever he's examining, stretching her muscles with each step.

”I don’t suppose anyone brought a map?” Bruce called over his shoulder, wondering how far they might have to walk if the road was out.
