chapter seventeen

Tweek

Finally after months of trying I found a responding channel. The voice is overlaid with static noises but I still understand a few scraps of the conversation. On this channel I found there are two people communicating. Luckily for me in english. The only foreign language I speak kinda fluently is german. So far I could only make out the names and their abode. One of the people calls himself 'Mole'. He speaks with a strong french accent but still in english. The 'Mole' and his companions are in Denver but they say that I gets more precarious each day. The other person is a woman. She's hiding in an old millitary base with others somewhere in New York. The city is dead, or at least that's what she said. But at least now I know that there are still other humans alive out there. Other than us and that gang who passed our town. I haven't tried to contact them, yet. But I'm planing on contacting them soon. first I gotta tell Craig my discovery.

We've been hiding in an abandoned shack in the woods near to Starks Pond. While this gang was in town we didn't really do much. We just stayed put untill they left. Our scouts Leo and Kenny just informed us that they left the city a few hours ago. But they had someone with them. They couldn't make out the face of the person but it was definitley a guy. A knot forms in my stomach. That would explain why Stan hasn't shown up. We've been hiding in this shack for about almost two weeks now and we're still waiting for him. Since I have the most experience with babys I took care of Brianna and am still taking care of her. But we're starting to run out of babysupplies. Especially babyfood. Craig and I should go into town to get some. But it's also kind of dangerous.

What if we run into Erics lackeys? They weren't included on my backupplan. Do they hate me? Do they wanna kill me? See me dead? What if I run into Eric himself? He's totally gonna kill me foro backstabbing him like that. Especially considering the things we stole from them...

"AGH! Too much pressure!", I let out and rip out a few of my hair."Babe relax.", Craig soothing voice appears out of nowhere next to my ear.I get startled, stumble and fall onto the floor. I look up at Craig who's trying hard to hold in the laughter. He wears a babysling around his chest in which Brianna seems to be really comfortable. He held out his hand towards me and helps me get back up."You scared me you dipshit.", I curse at him and he just plants a sweet kiss on my lips.All my sorrows melt away as I lean into it. He wraps an arm around me to pull me into a onesided embrace. Brianna gurgles happy in her babysling. I smile down at her."She's just so adorable.", I comment and stroke over her soft hair."Yeah", Craig agrees, "just like you."I blush furiously and punsh him in the arm: "Stop it you jerk."Craig kisses me over and over again. A smile forms on my lips as I'm returning the kisses. My stomach fills with fuzzy feelings. "Think about the baby, you lovebirds.", Kenny teases and interrupts our tender moment.Craig flips him off and I just giggle uncomfortably."Why so embarassed?", he continues to tease us, "you're official now aren't you?"Craig looks at me and we lock eyes. We haven't talked about being really official but we've been dating unofficial for quite a while now. I mean since we're away from Eric and the group we've been pretty obvious about our feelings for eachother. A question rises in Craigs eyes and I nod eagerly."Yeah. We are.", Craig states and looks at me affectionately."Well... congrats on coming  out you two.", Kenny grins at the both of us, "Tweek you mentioned earlier something that stuck in my head about some weird written notes?"I nod enthusiasthically: "Yeah have you found anything about them?""When Leo and I went scouting yesterday we ran into Bebe. She just gave us a pretty crumpled note and disappeared. But this weird code language was written on it."Kenny hands me the paper and it's the same weird language I've tried to decipher with Craig before. „That's amazing Kenny!", I beam at him and then notice that Craig looks pensive.„Was Clyde with her?", he asks with a shaky voice.„No, it was just her.""That's odd...", Craig mumbles worry in his voice, "he never wanted to leave her side. It's kinda weird don't you agree?"He looks into my eyes as if hoping to find the correct answer to his question there."It's certainley confusing.", I agree and my eyes dart to Kenny asking him silently for help."Uhm yeah. I think you know maybe he was nedded on another one of Cartmans mission so they couldn't be together... Anyways back to the note could you decipher the ones you found so far?"I sigh and shake my head: "Unfortunatley we haven't gotten anywhere so far. The only thing I could the decipher was the word hell. But I don't know what to do with it..."Kenny frowns and scratches his chin while being lost in thoughts."I think I know someone who could help us. I would need the notes tough and i might take a while until I return. But I'm pretty sure if this is hell related I know a way someone could help us. We aren't really close but I still hope they'll help me. I'm gonna say goodbye to Leo. I'll be back in a few. Prepare copies that fast or just give me the originals. I don't care but I've got a brilliant plan."Before either Craig or I can reply anything, Kenny rushes off. We exchange a look. This was really weird. I know Kenny is a special person because he can talk to the dead or something, but I'm not really sure what this just was about. It was extremly confusing. "Do you maybe wanna contact the channel I found?", I ask him and a small smile spreads on my face. He looks at me and seems to think for a moment. I caress Briannas fluffy hair while I wait for him to make his decision.
