Somehow time must have worked differently in the cloth world, because the last traces of dusk were slipping away, and it was getting quite dark. The kids all stood in a wet marsh inside a chain-link fence. Toads croaked invisibly all around them, and their shoes were soggy as they stood in the tall grass.

"We're alive...We're ALIVE!" He hugs Ian and anyone else within reach, and seems overjoyed by the simple fact of their continued existance. "WE'RE SURVIVORS...where..the hell are we maaan?" Ian- "Oh my god, I ... I can't believe it. God I hope that worked." He couldn't quite bring himself to look directly at anyone after the soul-baring scene.

"I don't know, Beef, but I am never having curtains in my house, like ever again..." Andrew was almost grateful for the soggy feeling as opposed to the marsh.
Heather- "Oh my god, I'm so glad to see you all here, even you weird punks! Andy!" She looked at Andrew all emotional.
Albert- "Right back at ya, honey bee!"
"Can... can we celebrate yet? Really? Is it over now?" His voice ever hopeful, he looked over at Michael. If it wasn't for the whole puking, he'd probably kiss him. Michael- "At this point, the goat can have me. I'm not doing another embarrassing thing tonight, thank you."

The kids slogged through the boggy ground and helped each other clamber over the fence, having no idea where they were. Their muscles ached and they were tired and dirty. The other side of the fence was a grass field, and all around them were trees and only very distant street lights. They followed the lights to a road, and realized they were in a suburban neighborhood. Already some small children were dressed in Halloween costumes and traipsing about with their plastic pumpkin buckets. After a bit of intuitive navigating, they figured out they were about half a mile from the lodge. Ian looked tentatively at Lucy, but when she started to notice, he looked away again. Ian- "Happy Halloween everybody. Anyone wants a ride, we got the wagon and the hearse at The Lodge."

Andrew blinked, looking about and even considered panhandling for candy, until the thought of candy made him even more nauseous. He glanced around. "So now what... do we... do we run? I mean, what will happen if we stay, guys? Won't they just come after us? I... I don't know, like, anything, and what's real... I... I'm-" Michael- "Hey, c'mon. They don't even know who we are! Only person who's gonna give a shit is Jen Washoe and her friends, and her parents are gonna be in deep shit with the cult I bet. Probably gratifying the beast as we speak. Oh man, I can't believe I hit a guy with this spade... It felt kinda good. Um, OK less honesty now...Right."
Andrew shivered against the wind and moved close to Michael. He really likes me. He looked at Lucy and back to Ian for the first time since hearing the weirdness come out of their mouths. It was... different. It really was a strange way to bond, deeper than any truth or dare he ever played. Well, he did usually just lie.

"We're ok, I think...I don't know, I'm pretty sure we screwed them up really bad, even if we didn't destroy their stupid machine. They're all in on it. Man, we're moving. Ian, come with us, we can move far away with your mom and my mom and my dad..Yeah? Then you'll be safe from goat monsters..." He's still shaking and curls up in a ball. "Ian man...I'm so glad you're alive."

Ian bends down to comfort Beef. Ian- "Hey, it's okay. Michael's right, they don't even know who we are! I bet the Washoes just get in deep shit, and the cult tries to cover their embarrassment by quashing the rumors with stupid shit. They don't wanna get found out about being creepy Satanists or whatever they are. Who's gonna believe a bunch of stupid kids? We gotta just do the best we can."
The group noticed some familiar figures hassling a group of tiny kids with their pumpkin buckets of candy.
Jesse- "Stupid brats! Gimmie that shit!" *punch*
Jessica- "Heehee.."
Jesse knocked the kids down and took their pumpkin buckets, the little children running away crying.

"Hey, leave them alone you bastards." He yells at Jesse, waving his bat around.

Jesse- "Tch, they don't need this much candy."
Jessica pulled out a roll of Smarties from a bucket and started unwrapping it with her tiny tiny fingers.

"Yeah they do, you cultist weirdos." He waves his bat around some more. "Unhand it." He charges them with his bat. He's in crazymode. "GET OUT. GO." He swings wildly.

Andrew nodded, running his hands back through his hair, adjusting himself as best as he could in soggy clothes. Exhaustion felt like a ton of bricks, pushing down on his shoulders; maybe it was the honesty. It wasn't exactly how he imagined it, but things were starting to look up; well, until he saw the other two freaks. Then he felt nauseous all over again.

Ian puts his hand on Beef's shoulder Ian- "Calm down man... These two are still on the list as far as we know. They'll get their's."
Jesse "The list? That was stupid. That can't get me."

He pants, and stops swinging somehow, before exhaling. "Yeah, ok...that's true." He says simply now. "...They're screwed..." He sighs.

Ian- "Ha, you so sure about that man? You think you can't die?" Jesse- "Man, I'm gonna die. Probably choke to death on somethin' that tastes too fuckin' good. Jessica- "Hehehe..." Jesse- "But that stupid list? That was BULL shit. It tried to get Jessi, and I fuckin' punched it." Michael- "....The goat?! You... punched it?!" Jesse- "Yeah. I punched its stupid face and I kicked it in the butt." Jessica- "Goats go OoohEHHHH! Hehehe."
