Fantendo - Genesis/Chapter 27

LOVE LETTERS
Rachel pulls the motorbike up into a bar. Unten groans.
:Unten: A bar?
:Rachel: My friend Trip's in here. Just gonna ask him what to do.
:Unten: Are they even gonna let Robyn or me in? Or YE?
:Rachel: They're pretty lax with the rules.
:Unten: Whatever…
The four enter the bar. Rachel heads to the counter as Unten sits at a table with Robyn and YE.
:Unten: So… Six.
:Robyn: Well, I admit, I don't know much about your abilities. 
:Unten: Right… my abilities…
:Robyn: You've got electricity, right? 
:Unten: Yeah. I mean, I can't use it too often otherwise I just get tired out… uh… hmm. 
:Robyn: I mean, you gotta have something right? 
:Unten: I mean at the end of the day… I was fighting with friends. I'm not really a super-powered alien. I don't have a bunch of cool abilities.
Robyn sighs.
:Robyn: We're not utterly hopeless right?
----
Rachel lays against the counter as the bartender cleans a mug. Rachel sighs.
:Rachel: How did I even get myself into this mess, Trip?
:Trip: Ah jeez, what's the problem this time?
:Rachel: You see that blue bear thing?
:Trip: Yeah. He's real?
:Rachel: Yeah. I suppose you know Six and all that shit, right?
:Trip: Oh yeah, it's quite terrifying.
:Rachel: Guess what? Apparently we're supposed to stop her with… 
Rachel sighs again.
:Rachel: Honestly maybe this would be a good place to stop.
:Trip: Rachel, what is this nonsense?
:Rachel: What now, Trip?
:Trip: I mean sure, he doesn't look like much but I suppose if you know he's supposed to stop Six then you may as well show some faith about it. Negativity isn't your strong suit.
:Rachel: I'm not trying to be negative, it's just… I can't see it. It's not like he's weak or anything but Six is practically a goddess of destruction, you know?
----
:Unten: So you don't think I can do it?
:Robyn: Well. it's more like I can't really see how…
Four people walk onto the stage at the right end of the bar in the background. One is a blond haired boy, another is a darker skinned girl with black hair and red glasses, one is a girl who seems to have rainbow hair, and one person isn't really a person so much as a robot with a spike on top of it. Robyn looks at them as they get on stage, the mic screeching.
:Robyn: ...who are they?
:Unten: How am I supposed to know?
:Blond Haired Man: Name's Reese, that's Rhyse…
Reese points to the girl with black hair and red sunglasses. She keeps her same blank expression.
:Reese: That's Aurora…
Reese points to the girl with rainbow hair. She flashes a quick smile as she tinkers with her guitar.
:Reese: And that's Spikebot. I would pet him if he didn't have the spike on top.
Spikebot beeps.
:Reese: We're gonna play a song in 3… 2… 1!
----
As the song's instrumental intro plays, Rachel groans.
:Rachel: God damn it, why do you have somebody playing right now?
Trip laughs a little.
:Trip: A little music never hurt anyone.
----
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
Robyn bops her head to the left and right as Unten looks on with concern. She laughs a bit.
:Reese: Love letters' all I see
:Reese: On every day I read
:Reese: The bits of yellow paper
:Reese: Addressed from you to me
:Reese: And every day a chance
:Reese: Inside a book of stamps
:Reese: To tell you what I'm up to
:Reese: And say just how I feel
Robyn gets up from the table to dance a bit. She invites Unten, who hesitatingly does so.
:Reese: You've got me writing
:Aurora: Love letters
:Reese: I'm always writing
:Aurora: Love letters
:Reese: You've got me writing
:Aurora: Love letters
:Reese:I'm always writing
:Aurora: Love letters
Rachel gets up from her bar stool to join in.
:Reese:From far across the see
:Reese:They fly from you to me
:Reese:But still I get no sleep
:Reese:Oh my Love, don't be mad
Unten looks at Rachel as everything slows.
:Reese:'Cause I'll keep on writing
:Aurora: Love letters
:Reese:Yeah, I'll keep on writing
:Aurora: Love letters
:Reese:Yeah, I'll keep on writing
:Aurora: Love letters
:Reese:Yeah, I'll keep on writing
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
Aurora pauses as she continues to sing, her voice trailing as the song ends.
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters
:Aurora: Love letters

:Rachel: Well, I still have no idea how we're going to lure Six.
:Robyn: She's probably still looking for us… I have an idea.
:Rachel: No, we're not going as bait!
:Robyn: You didn't even hear what I was going to say.
:Rachel: ...Oh, then tell me.
:Robyn: We gotta make a big ruckus in a spot we wanna bring the fight to. Somewhere fairly rural, even ground… and we need a band.
:Rachel: Why the hel- heck do we need a band?
:Robyn: You can say “hell”.
:Rachel: Why do we need a band?
:Robyn: To make a big ruckus, you know? I think these guys can do it.
Reese and his band perk up in interest.
:Rachel: Oh jeez, she's not serious guys. 
Reese and the band hang their heads in disappointment.
:Robyn: No, I am! Let's get a gig out there, make it a big thing that she can't possibly miss. Who the hell doesn't want to see two aliens fight?
:Rachel: Would probably be a good way to recoup the money I spent on the motorcycle too…
Unten looks at her with a confused look.
:Rachel: I think I can probably make some money off you, yes.
:Robyn: What do you say, Reese?
:Reese: Shit yeah, let's do it! Come on, sisters!
Rachel realizes the band members are related and her smile slowly ceases.
