After the Fall

Waiting (Light Angst)

"Let's take a grand tour!"

"Okay so this specific base is one of my favorites because the cafeteria is awesome!" Telpher smiles, him walking backwards while facing the others, all of them following him down the large hallway. "So this is our prep hall we call it, for my officers to get their weapons their uniforms all of that good jazz. Or to chill out on benches if they are on break." He explains, all of the officers that pass by nodding at him in acknowledgment.

"So you have multiple bases?" Max questions.

"Twenty to be exact." Telpher points at her with a smile. "And this in all of its glory...is the cafeteria!" He exclaims, them rounding the corner to reveal the large big cafeteria with a long counter on the left side holding all different kind of foods. "The best thing about is that today is Mexican theme, and the very very best thing about that is that I made it!" He motions towards himself. "Don't worry I'm half Hispanic so I actually do know how to make Mexican food, you all should try it okay off to you alls rooms let's go!"

"This guy is really pissing me off." Hopper says while him and Joyce walk side by side.

"Hop." Joyce says, her to exasperated and mentally and physically exhausted to say anything else.

"I really want to kick him in his juggler." Hopper states.

"Bathrooms!" Telpher says, pointing at the two doors. "One for the boys and one for the girls, each one holds multiple showers and stalls for you all to do your business, and don't worry it is squeaky clean because I have some chronic OCD." He explains, him going to walk about twenty feet across the way and going to open another door, revealing a room with multiple full sized beds and bunk beds at the corners of each wall, the rest being full sized beds. "And this is where you all can settle."

All of them slowly go to make their way inside, Nancy going to sit down on one of the beds while holding Amir, his arms going around her neck more to make sure he has her close, his head being leaned on her chest. Amberlee does the absolute same with Lucas, afraid that if she doesn't hold on tighter they will slip away, and that makes her more fearful, and makes her clutch onto him more.

"Clothes are on the beds for each of you all. We cannot exactly bring you alls clothes from your residence so for now you all have these comfortable white silk clothes until my men comes back comes back with more for you all." Telpher says.

All of them go to sit down, all of them just being mentally and physically exhausted, so much on their minds right now.

"Whenever you guys are done you all can come to the cafeteria to get something to eat, which I recommend doing, no need to starve yourself and plus I made the quesadillas so you all should try them." Telpher smiles, all of them just looking at him with hard expressions. "No? Okay, well you all take your time." He says before he goes to walk away.

"I really want to hit the guy." Hopper says.

"I'm pretty sure we all do Hop." Joyce replies.

"Wait wait wait I just thought of something." Cassandra says while looking ahead of her in a thinking manner, her and Jonathan sitting next to each other.

"What?" Jonathan questions.

"My Dad can be the judge." Cassandra says. "He's done it before to where he was able to a judge for specific cases, and since this guy is...whoever he is maybe he can arrange for him to be the judge. I can explain everything and he can vote in you alls favor."

"But there is still the jury to worry about." Lucas says.

"Yeah my Dad knows some people, that owes jury duty." Cassandra says while standing up. "Plus I know there are people who are grateful to Jane, I can just tell him to find those ones and they can be the jury."
