"I blame you for this." She said to Law. Lexi deadpanned at the hastily-written note on the kitchen counter. She clenched her fist tightly, crumpling the sides of the paper in anger and exasperation. "Why can't they just stay put and wait like sensible people?" She lamented aloud.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1AHQraz59R 維尼
Law shrugged, but still looked a little annoyed himself. "They have a habit of wandering off by themselves."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxJ13fTVMk 維尼
"Just great…" She muttered. "They could be anywhere. The countryside is pretty big so they could have wandered literally anywhere."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYzsoZIvXF 維尼
"Is there a way to track them?" He suggested, but she shook her head.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4PqUe7bHy 維尼
"The best we could really do is drive around in the truck and search, but we would be confined to only the roads. And there are too many roads to really search properly. We have no idea which way they went anyways." Lexi took off her coat and boots and lazily plopped them onto the floor. She was too tired at that moment to scale the stairs. She would pick them up later.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRIqgaHLvA 維尼
"Are they fine on their own?" She questioned, and he nodded.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGvHBcyZ74 維尼
"Usually their antics are fairly harmless, and they will most likely find their way home." Nodding, Lexi wandered over and flopped onto the couch, sighing loudly in exhaustion.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqjai29UEU 維尼
"You guys are gonna kill me one of these days." She moaned, reaching for the tv remote. Nana had gone to bed, being rather tired herself, and so Lexi could watch the shows that she liked most. Family Feud was fun sometimes, but it got really boring after awhile.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnX0TXpFSo 維尼
She flipped through channels until she landed on a rerun of Bones. Tossing the remote back onto the table, she settled into the cushions.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1kMOBLAFX 維尼
"What is this?" Law asked with interest. Lexi gave him a small glance before turning her attention back to the screen.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EFt2QIwKX 維尼
"It's a show about solving murders. You know, like a romantic, mystery drama?" He seemed confused. "You don't have dramas in your world do you?"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMCNZqG5qX 維尼
"No."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf2sGPooja 維尼
"Figures." She fixed her attention on the rotting corpse on the examination table as the Jeffersonian crime-solvers figured out the victim's identity.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPulm7C2eb 維尼
The two watched in silence for ten minutes of so and out of pure curiosity, Lexi glanced over at an oblivious Law, who watched the show in actual fascination. That's right, he was a doctor. He probably thought this stuff was really cool after all.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡAU8ytyBPlc 維尼
"You don't know how to get back to the house, do you?" Penguin asked his friend, who was scratching his head nervously at the large green sign beside the road. The rain came down on them steadily, but none of the pirates seemed to mind much.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDlT9gO8A7 維尼
"What town did Lexi-chan say she lived in?" Penguin sighed, crossing his arms.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡSzU9j7eJQz 維尼
"She never did. Face it. We're lost." The engineers sighed as they slumped over in defeat.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡNWrayjVcPQ 維尼
Bepo watched with confusion. Why were they being so nervous about finding their way home? Bepo could still smell the faint traces of the house in the direction they'd come, he was confident that he could lead them back home without trouble.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCBgLILyt6 維尼
"Guys-" He tried to tell them, but something caught their attention in front of them.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8u1DoNT5b 維尼
"What is that?" Shachi asked, running with his friend to the strange looking building on the other side of the road. There were several cars parked in front of it, and people were walking in and out of the building.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3D8BcoBnhU 維尼
"I wanna see!" Penguin said, but the two stopped suddenly. "Lexi-chan said before that talking polar bears weren't normal in her world. People might start to freak out if they see you, Bepo."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡKgnMLK3iPO 維尼
The bear hung his head. "I'm sorry."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡoQTxRypXTN 維尼
"Stop being so sensitive!" Shachi cried, which only made it worse.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxq11HOFLl 維尼
"I'm sorry."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡybaIoe9YgO 維尼
"Maybe this was a bad idea to go exploring without Lexi-chan knowing…" Penguin pondered, rubbing his chin as rain gently soaked them through. Shachi sighed with a slouch, and he nodded.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNTLhLja8v 維尼
"It is getting kind late, and," The engineer's stomach grumbled loudly, "I'm getting really hungry…"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGsFHVZUX9 維尼
"Yeah, me too." Bepo said, sniffing the air for the direction of the house. Unfortunately, the constant rain had washed away most of the scents in the air, including Lexi's house, and Bepo was no longer confident in finding his way back so easily. They'd spent too much time being soaked in the rain.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrhxA2NOUm 維尼
"Well, how do we find our way back?" Shachi asked, scratching his chin. Penguin held up a finger, his mouth forming a small 'O.'8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1AU1DhJpF 維尼
"What if we call Lexi-chan on her phone? She said you can talk to people if you have their right number code, right? So all we gotta do is figure it out!"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡJw1Wpi4exf 維尼
"Awesome, but don't you need a phone to call her with too?"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWA3RUajlG 維尼
"Hmm…you're right. But I bet you we can ask someone else to use theirs. I bet you that building has one. Or maybe someone inside."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡGf2nkamGva 維尼
"Bepo, you wait here and when Lexi-chan comes to pick us up, we'll come get you." The bear nodded and settled under a tree nearby, meanwhile, the two engineers walked over to the building across the way.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6y3yvMRbNn 維尼
"They've been gone awhile." Lexi wondered aloud, finishing up the third episode of Bones in a row. Law was rather interested, and had asked Lexi several questions of her world's advanced medical techniques and procedures. She hadn't been able to answer all of them by heart, which served as a good review for her anatomy class, but what she didn't know, she could look up on her phone. She silently thanked Google for being there always.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAzDeLuVM7 維尼
"I'm sure they'll find their way back." Law said, and his sentence was punctuated by Lexi's phone vibrating in her hand. She jumped, not expecting her phone to be going off, and looked at the caller ID.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rqf61IPh9 維尼
It showed an unrecognized number, as well as a small town a few miles away. Frowning, she swiped the screen and held up the phone to her ear.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmbnjICQrl 維尼
"Hello?"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡZtCZaI4CiB 維尼
"This is Lexi-chan, right? Hello? Can you hear me? How does this thing work again?" She could hear the two idiots bickering on the other end of the line.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNR9bUfNt6 維尼
"Shachi? Penguin? Where in the hell are you guys? You've been gone for hours!" She stood, and at the mention of his crew mate's names, Law diverted his attention back onto the brunette.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLvVubLLVk 維尼
"We're at a, what is it called again, oh yeah! A gas station! The one in…Harrisville! The guy in the building let us use a phone, and he said we could look up your phone in the phonebook or something, so we looked up your name and-"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO9xZE9GKg 維尼
She shook her head, trying to keep up with his explanation. "Yes, I know how a phonebook works, Shachi. You're at the gas station in Harrisville? The one on the highway? And where is Bepo? No one say him, did they?"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mNCI2PP1o 維尼
"Bepo's fine! He's gonna wait for you to get here and then we'll go and get him. Is this gas station on the highway?" She heard them ask. "Yeah, the guy says we're five minutes south of the main street on the main highway."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQawC4b8eF 維尼
"Alright, stay there, I'll come get you." At Law's bland look she rolled her eyes. "We'll come get you. Just stay put and don't. Touch. Anything." She warned, hanging up the phone.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡwaKVLvXcZg 維尼
"Your idiot crew mates have wandered to a small town a couple miles away. Law sighed and stood as well.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SV61ENSZD 維尼
"I suppose we'd better go get them then." He surmised, placing his spotted hat on his head after checking to make sure it was dry.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2DsIYx41B 維尼
"Let's go. And you can even sit inside the truck this time." She said with a smile. He raised a brow and said nothing.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8nsDGUkxzP 維尼
Lexi and Law pushed through the door to the gas station, and instantly spotted the two sitting at a table in the corner. They were playing cards. Law went to his mates but Lexi first stopped at the cashier's counter.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡjuZghY7uqh 維尼
The man in charge of the register looked rather annoyed, eyeing the two cautiously every time they shouted or made strange noises, and she was sure he had good reason to. She couldn't even imagine what they'd been like before finding a way to get her phone number.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡqRE2aHzW6r 維尼
"Thanks, and I'm so sorry for all the trouble. I'll try to keep them out of the way for awhile." The man shrugged.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ljzCk3DSL 維尼
"No harm done, but my suggestion? Get their heads checked." He pointed to the side of his head and spun his finger, in a sign for crazy, and she grinned a little. Moving off to the others, she sighed and placed her hands on her hips.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bVywpCtGB 維尼
"And just what did you hope to accomplish with this whole outing?" She demanded. They looked a little sheepish.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡBGynGrDeca 維尼
"Well, you see-"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1tFWoKe5D9 維尼
"You know how we're pirates…? And pirates go on adventures?" Shachi finished, looking up with pleading eyes. Lexi was unaffected.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJ9Dqxeyr5 維尼
"That's it. You're grounded for a few days." She concluded, crossing her arms. They looked up in frustration.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHAusjhGXW 維尼
"But Lexi-chan-"8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xKvc9Hpe8 維尼
"No buts. Now get to the truck. We're going back to the house."8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6bTrbeizb 維尼
They slumped over and headed towards the door. Law and Lexi followed, the brunette in a much more annoyed mood than before. Law smirked as he passed by.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNkdxvEMYE 維尼
"Is your patience running thin?" He asked cheekily, before wandering off back to the truck. She grumbled to herself, gripping the keys tightly and trying to think happy thoughts. She was so very tired of not know what to do half the time.8964 copyright protection398ＰＥＮＡＮＡZv8aWp9vb7 維尼
