<span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: times new roman;"><strong>The roads heading East toward Devil Bat Cave<br/>Thursday Morning -- November 11 2010 (very early a.m.)</strong><br/>Fate Turner (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=105330.msg4630243#msg4630243) -- On the road to Devil Bat Cave...</span><br/><br/>Fate blinked at the woman's response. It seemed a bit scattered and the woman looked somewhat shaken in general. Besides the fact that she'd felt obliged to announce that she was a bartender, Fate was starting to think that they might not be the only ones heading over to check out the caves. Obviously others have been of the same curious mindset...or was she missing something important here?<br/><br/>Casting her suspicions aside, she smiled winningly at the dripping barmaid. "Actually, we're heading over to the caves ourselves. Hop in. We can always look for a garage that's still open on the way."<br/><br/>Mark almost cringed when Al slipped into the backseat. He'd started out the night hoping to drive just Fate home, and now he had three ladies as company. This would've been a dream come true, except one was getting the interior of his precious baby all wet and none of them were vying for his attention.<br/><br/>As the car started again and continued on its way, Fate continued small talk. It seemed to be her thing. Better than sitting in stifling silence, right? Not that she minded peace and quiet from time to time. "So, a bartender, hm? Which bar were you working at, if you don't mind my asking? Must've been a crazy night." She grinned congenially into the rearview mirror. "Drunk bastards couldn't leave you alone? I'm Fate by the way, our driver here's my friend Mark."
