You had drove into a new region, up a hill where there was a giant building loaded with armed Peggys. You were so amazed, that you couldn't stop looking out the window like a curious dog. The jeep stops as you all get out. You walk over to this giant door. Joseph puts his hand on your shoulder. You look at him while John goes in front of you to open the door
Joseph: This is how we are preparing for The Collapse
The door unlocks. John opens the door. You look at it with wide eyes when you see stairs. You all head in and go downstairs. There were bunk beds everywhere. Some Peggys were there relaxing, working out, or praying to an alter with a picture of Joseph on it. They all stand when they see Joseph
Peggy: Father!
Joseph walks ahead of you to greet them. John puts his arm around your neck
John: Are you ready for the tour?
You look at him and nod
John: Good. Now as you can see this is an underground bunker for when The Collapse comes. Jacob has one as well. We'll take shelter and we will wait it out until it's time
You grab your board and write "When do you know the time?"
John: When Joseph says so that's when
You get ready to write again but John puts his hand on the board
John: He just does okay
Joseph: My children, you have been hidden away from the outside. My apologies for that. It seems The Collapse will be coming sooner than expected. I bring good news to you. A gift for all your hard work. A gift from God himself
He points at you. John puts his hand on your shoulder
John: Tour on hold
He goes to your ear
John: Get ready to make more fans
Joseph: This is Eden. Our Prodigy
Everyone gasps then kneels for you. John looks away
John *mumbles* I wish I got that kind of respect
You look at him but he pokes your cheek and moves you to face back to everyone
John: Don't look away from them
Joseph: Come Eden
You walk over to him
Joseph: Arise children
They all stand
Joseph: Come meet your Prodigy for this will be your first and last encounter with her until we reach Eden's Gate so cherish this moment
John starts walking
John: This is going to take some time
He lies down on a couch
John: Wake me up when you're done
While you're meeting everyone, Joseph walks over to John
Joseph: There is reason for that "SLOTH" marking
He drops the bible on his chest. John quickly sits up, groaning
John: Really Joseph? Was that necessary?
Joseph: I know you're anxious brother but patience is a virtue
John: Hmph
Joseph: Look, she's already done
You walk over to them while The Peggy's go back to what they were doing before. John stands and fixes himself while giving Joseph his bible
John: There are still many more people to meet but MORE importantly, lots of stuff to see
John grabs your hand
John: Yeah so lets go
He starts walking fast as you try to catch up. Joseph mumbles something while following behind. You go more down into the bunker, seeing crates of food and water everywhere. You begin to hear sobs as you approach a gate with a couple if people inside. They had beds and toilets in them but it looked like a jail cell
John: These are people we are saving from The Collapse. Every gate like this is with people. They are provided with everything they need
Lady: Please, help us
Once you heard that, you become worried for them. You felt sad for them. John sees your sad puppy dog eyes staring at them so he gets in your face
John: I said we are helping them Eden. They will survive The Collapse and start over with their new lives
Lady: You forced us out...
John puts his hands on your shoulders
John: Nah ah ah. We will not listen to your lies
He makes you go into another gate
Forced out of their homes? Sounds very familiar
When you go to the other gate, you see a familiar face. It was Deputy Hudson. She sees you but then glares when John approaches
John: Ah Deputy Hudson. The perfect example for The Prodigy to see
John nods at the escort Peggy's. They open the gate, drag her out, and take her away. You watch with a sad look. John sees again then puts his hands on your cheeks
John: Stop with those sad eyes Eden
He gets in your face
John: We. Are. Helping. Them
You point to where they took Hudson
John: We. Are. Helping. Her
You glare at him
John: What is with that look? Stop it right now and smile
He puts his thumbs on your lips and spreads it out to make it look like you're smiling
John: Smile I say
Joseph grabs John's arm
Joseph: Stop that John, you're acting childish
John: You see the look she's giving me?
Joseph: You know how she is. She won't understand until she sees it
You smirk then stick your tongue out at him. He points at you
John: Now she's sticking her tongue at me!
Joseph: Eden has a mind of a child
John: Oh and I'M the one acting childish?
He grabs your face and moves it towards Joseph. You're smiling at him instead of sticking your tongue out
John: Look at that. Tongue out, mocking me
Joseph smiles at you, rubs your cheek, then starts walking
John: What? But you?
Joseph: Give it a rest John. We have important things to attend to
John glares then looks at you, pointing and smirking
John: Oh I'm going to be keeping my eye on you
You stick your tongue out at him again then walk away. John shakes his head
John: Ooo you sneaky girl
He starts following you and Joseph
