"Guess J shoulda been more clear about where she invited you to." Nathan responded to Doc when the doctor was confused about the toilet paper dilemma. "See those mountains behind me?" Nathan asked Doc as he began rowing again. "We're headed there to re-stock on food and propane that we keep hidden in one of the mini caves near the mountain pass."
Doc listed to the explanation and nodded in agreement but wondered why they just didn't below the permafrost layer in the ground near the house.
Both Nathan and Joan looked at Doc like he was a little crazy when he mentioned the whispering dead in his dreams, and Nathan was the first to speak up. "Dreams are just sleep illusions Doctor." He found it odd that he had to explain to someone far older than him that dreams had no real significance. "Anyways, trekking across this lake might seem like an inconvenience to us, but the mountains are the only way to keep the food preserved in Gabrielle's natural cooler."
"Maybe so... but to me they are real and I have been experiencing "Déjà vu" so I'll leave it at that".
"What do they whisper?" Joan curiously asked Doc with a highly interested look on her face. Unlike Nathan, she was less of a skeptic toward dream symbolism and she was anxious to know what Doc was speaking of. " When we get back we can maybe sit down and trade dream to understand what they say to us... but you have to listen, it's that simple. " Doc smiled to her.
time passed and the boat landed finally.. Nathan pulled out a melee weapon "Have to improvise at times like these..." he said to them with a smirk. " Indeed" The doctor smiled back and followed the small group to the "cooler". While in the center doc felt that he had some value but he felt guilty that "J" was watching his back...
Gathering the canned goods, making small talk at the cave was refreshing until the unseen threat was see by the good doctor. Nathan was still pissed and so was "J" but a figure appeared from the woods. Doc moved without saying anything to anyone and took cover near a boulder, put his finger to his lips and swayed his hand to signal for enemy ahead.
This wasn't good... each and every time, those two argued and LOUDLY. Maybe this was the time it might cost everyone their lives. the doctor feared.
With two cans in his hands... this was as good as it was going to get. More than likely they attracted the attention of some biters. Now he wish he didn't come at all.

same here,*LOL
done, sorry about that. when the server went down somehow it posted.
When Nathan busted out laughing it was apparent that the kids were in charge and the mother wasn't active in her role as a mother that would protect her child in this dangerous world. The children would do as they please and not listen to anyone else. This is a recipe for disaster and the kids will get someone or all killed in that home, it would be just a matter of time thought the doctor. So it will be time to move on with or with this group for death is looming near, maybe that was what the dream was about the doctor thought to himself.
"Yeah, I don't think so." Joan said with a slightly annoyed voice.
The doctor smirked at the comment.. ok, so they are not a couple then, but why .... jezz. Who can understand young people of today, everyone speaks in code the doctor thought to himself. They continued down to the dark waters of the lake.
"Well, looks like there's only two paddles... And your on the end so." Nathan said to Doc " No problem... just keep up with me" The doctor laughed. The doctor's thoughts fell back to his days at Georgetown University Crew team and the endurance that was need to row as part of a crew. It wasn't anything like that in this small boat but the doctor could defiantly handle this with ease, it was his forte`.
"By the way Doctor, there is no toilet paper where we're headed." That seemed strange to the doctor... I mean how many places that you have ever been to that didn't have toliet paper just lying around, everyone in the world didn't just say " oh, don't for get to grab every roll of toilet paper", besides the toilets would only flush once and not refill. The doctor continued to paddle then said " Seems kinda strange that everyone would grad every single roll, weird".
The Doctor talked about other things too... that was when Nathan said "Heard from Gabrielle and Isabella that a few people died in this lake."
" I imagine so" The Doctor replied
"No you didn't." Joan said rolling her eyes at his attempt to creep out Doc.
" That's ok... the dead in my dreams whisper to me their secrets and I'm just tiring to figure out what they are trying to tell me. " The boat got silent " This is the part where your going to make fun of me isn't it?" The doctor asked.

" Well I'm not going to get any sleep around here anytime soon and with the rifle empty they can't hurt anyone but maybe Nathan can get the weapon back for me and ask the boys nicely or something to that effect" Doc looked to Nathan for answers. " Besides... I was stuck in that stupid mortar carrier for about a week till you guys found me, which I'm thankful for" Doc smiled at "jone".
" Nathan, if you don't mind , yes I would like to get out of the house and go with you two... unless this is one of those boyfriend and girlfriend time alone things".
Doc didn't want to intrude but it was the way that "jone" had put it... he wasn't sure with women because the doctor wasn't sure himself. He wouldn't have caught the subtle clue earlier even if it was out in the open with Nathan voice pattern changing, the doctor wasn't great on social cues at times. One thing that did disturb him was that lady in the lake... with his daymare that he had but the doctor felt more reassured with two other people with him.
" Well then it's settled, lets go and get somethings.... like toilet paper" Doc smiled.
As they left the house the doctor look up at the truck and smiled remembering that it as locked. Walking down to the dock seemed quiet till the doctor began to speak " anyone having any bad or weird dreams like.... the boat or going out like this.. what I mean is... "visions"?

" Not everyone gets into this prison but I would like to know who gave my name to them. And who it was that arranged for me to do my time here rather than in a normal prison. " Matt spoke.
"Florence A. Kennedy ring a bell?... No one has seen here since the 4 star hotel. But then again what about David and Mary Preston's family?. Powerful still wouldn't you say?" Lance sat back down and rubbed his chin a bit. " Matt.. what can you tell me about Grace Sullivan in all of this mess?. Grace and Florence didn't get along because of Kevin and both wanting his affections?. " Lance leans in " Did Florence say that she was with child because of Kevin to have Grace stay away from Kevin?" Lance spoke again " Grace was given the title of salutatorian and not Florence.. anyone know why?"
Lance listen to Matt for a bit
" So what where you , Dan , Florence and Kevin arguing about that night before the punch was spilled on grace's dress?"
"How does the House of the Gaul" thing work?. Because you not a Kennedy or a Preston."
" Kevin Preston and Florence Kennedy were meant to be a powerful couple... but it looks that Kevin had other plans with grace, right?".
" Was Kevin sexually active with grace? and then Florence found out, maybe?"
Lance had alot of questions to ask!

" Well I don't know about that Matt because I'm sitting over here on the "Free" side and are stilling behind bars. So tell me again how smart you are, how tough you are as well because your going to need that pretty soon when someone that you know is going to hit you for a sex crime.
Lance just smiled
" I guess you haven't gotten served papers yet so I guess your right, I'm wrong and I've been wasting your time because you don't have to tell me nothing. So... is it still true that a rumor flies faster than you walking back to your cell?. Partner this is Texas and I know the Aryans don't like sex offenders, so how long to you think that you will last
without any help from the outside" .
Lance leaned back grinning
" Mr smart ass did you know that your old pal is getting ready to leave soon too.... what a coincident, so your the smart man. Your older now, it gets harder to defend yourself with all the youngsters that don't respect you "lifers". They have their own rules.. don't they".
" Your right.. maybe I'm dumb in thinking that someone is setting you up to have you silenced after all these years, strange don't you think.?"
Lance looked at his watch
" Mr tough guy have thirty seconds to start talking or I walk"
Lance was making a gamble but knew that Matt couldn't afford to lose this bet.
1. You have no visitors... no one give a shit about you.
2. Your White, in Texas and if you are not part of a gang then you have troubles.
3. Some man visits you, tells you that your about to get hit with a sex crime... and your still in prison for life. You then only have one choice. To go to Police custody (PC) where are the gang drop outs, rapist, Child molesters, arsonist and all the trash live.
4. Lance is betting that he will want to talk and know,who, what, where and when?
