AVANTE EN GARDE

[you find yourself in this derelict village, with not a soul to be seen—but before you is this station wagon:

for all intents and purposes, this baby is a simple "honk, steer, pedal to go, brakes to stop" vehicle that anyone with opposable thumbs can drive. despite its age, it does have a handy GPS system that displays paths you can take, but fails to identify anything like landmarks or other worldly features. last but not least: its paint job is done in your unit's color!

The following can be found in the trunk/dashboard:
• Icepicks
• These 5 Bone Saws
• A surgical set
• A single miniature of 99 Bananas
• one large first aid kit containing nothing but bandages and bandaids]

[ He has no idea what is ahead of them. He's holding onto someone's arm at the very least. ]

What do you see?

Big hole, rickety bridge. No way the car's getting over there...maybe us, neither.

Should I just park it here?

Probably, yes.

[ Said confidently despite not seeing... anything. ]

We will be unable to recover from our injuries if we do not try. At the very least, I dislike stabbing myself or having to rely on sensitIV when they are usually not doing so well themselves.

[ Squinting out the car. ]

Mm... it looks like the finish line is on the other side. But on the other hand, this bridge doesn't look like it'll hold the car. We could try walking ourselves across it to lessen the weight, but it's freezing as is.

Yeah... No way we can do it more than one at a time.

I don't like this...

What do you propose...?

[ Half-heartedly. ]

I can drive the car off the cliff.

...You could drive the car off the cliff.

We could build up a ramp, even.

. . . . . . . Are you two serious?

Either she kills us or we kill us ourselves and don't give her the satisfaction of it.

Yeah. Like--if you wanna chance it, you can. But why not go out on our own terms?

You are both of you mad.

But perhaps I have gone mad too. Because you see, no matter what we do we keep being brought to harm. And truly, I do not wish to see her infuriating smile again. So if we can thwart it for even a moment, I suppose it would be worth it
