Chapter Thirteen - Canada

Chapter Thirteen:
Notes: OH CANADA OF CANADA I LOVE YOU CANA-CANADA! But seriously, I love Canada. I want to move there after I graduate college. This section will be a little different. Because everything is getting so complicated, I'm going to be adding scenes where the characters are actually talking-talking to each other, like, face to face. This chapter is on crack! (But so may be Moth...) Enjoy!
April 24:
(NR 2:47 pm) "We aren't going to find anything here."
(LH 2:53 pm) "Stay optimistic."
(NR 2:55 pm) "Optimistic? I'm freezing my butt off, it's raining these tiny little cold packing peanuts, and I'm nervous. Where the hell is Moth?"
(LH 2:30 pm) "We're not just going to find her right off the bat. Toronto's a big city."
(NR 2:34 pm) "It's like Seattle from an alternate universe. A weird, slightly cleaner and more productive alternate universe."
(LH 2:36 pm) "They get s**t done here. I just saw someone cleaning."
(NR 2:41 pm) "Wow. So I'm showing people the pic we found of Moth, and like 5 people have told me she looks like someone named Sibel Kekilli! Is that an actress?"
(LH 2:43 pm) "Shae from Game of Thrones. Incidentally, you kind of look like Seychelle Gabriel."
(NR 2:45 pm) "Thanks. :) You look like Felicia Day."
(LH 2:47 pm) "She's a cutie. We're all cuties."
(NR 2:49 pm) "That's true. On a completely unrelated subject, I don't know what I'm looking for. No one's seen her."
(LH 2:52 pm) "We should have just posted her picture on tumblr. I'm going to do that right now, actually. Not what I usually post, but whatever."
(NR 2:57 pm) "Good idea. I'll do that too. I like your shoelaces, by the way."
(LH 2:58 pm) "Thanks! I stole them from The President!"

(NR 4:57 pm) "I found her."
(LH 5:00 pm) "Where? Hang on, I'll call you."
Ring ring.
(NR) "Someone saw the picture and said they'd seen her hanging out on some back street. I'll text you the address. Meet you there, 15-minutes."
(LH) "I'm going to kill her. Meet you there."
Click.

(NR 5:16 pm) "This is obviously a drug den. Why aren't you here yet?"
(LH 5:17 pm) "Cabbie got confused, and now I'm stuck in traffic. Don't go in without me."
(NR 5:21 pm) "Bad news, I went in without you. Good news, have not been killed yet. I'll keep you informed."
(LH 5:22 pm) "I hate you."
(NR 5:24 pm) "I didn't think places like this really existed. I had no idea there was this kind of terrible thing that happened. I thought it was all glamorous and everything, but hell no. You should see this place. It looks like the portal to hell. Holy crap."
(LH 5:25 pm) "Just find her and get out. My cab's close; just give me a few minutes."

Ring ring.
(NR) "I think I found her. S**t... I barely recognize her. She looks bad. There's a needle jabbed in her arm."
(LH) "F**k! I'll be there soon. Should I call an ambulance?"
(NR) "I'll ask her when she wakes up. Just get here soon. 3rd floor, in the back, under the giant graffitied heart with an arrow through it. Not very hard to miss. Get here soon."

Click.
(NR) "Moth! Are you awake? Can you hear me? I'm just going to keep yelling at you until you wake up!"
(MA) "Uhhhhh... Leave me alone."
(NR) "You b*****d... Come on, you have to wake up!"
(MA) "I don't want anymore..."
(NR) "Don't worry, uh �" don't worry. It's going to be okay. Look at me! Open your eyes! Look at me, come on! NO �" DON'T RIP THAT OUT!"
(MA) "... Ow..."
(NR) "S**t. Good f*****g job. Oh, Jesus. Well, now you've got a bit of a needled stuck in your arm. You are such... Hey, come on. Look at me! I'm not done insulting you yet!"
(MA) "I'm sorry. How... How'd you find me?"
(NR) "House, train station, car, Canada. Only so many drugs dens in the world. Cozy little place, I'll give you that. You've got to tell me, okay, what the hell you're on. Hey! Moth, you've got to open your eyes and look at me and tell me what the hell you're doing."
(MA) "..."
(NR) "There's no pride in this. There's no dignity in lying to me. I don't care what you do; I care how you are! Now look at me!"
(MA) "..."
(NR) "You little s**t."
(LH) "Oh, f**k! Did she pass out?"
(NR) "I think so. What took you so long?"
(LH) "I had to get out and run!"
(NR) "In heels? S**t. Come on, we'd better move her. I'll grab and arm; you grab and you grab a leg."
(LH) "Right then. Unconscious human being; light as a feather. She looks sick."
(NR) "Probably got something to do with the drugs, I think."
(LH) "Sounds about right. Take her back to the hotel?"
(NR) "That'll go real well. Let's just get her back home."

(LH) "This so so weird."
(NR) "No it isn't. We're just sitting on the steps of a drug den, waiting for my mom to come get us, in Canada, with our unconscious drug addict friend passed out next to us, while eating ice cream."
(LH) "Hm... This is delicious, by the way. Canadian ice cream: Made of real ice!"
(MA) "Can you both shut up? I'm pretending to be unconscious over here."
(NR) "I'm going to kill you, Moth."
(MA) "Oh, please. Leave killing me to me."
(LH) "Huh. Want some ice cream?"
(MA) "I'd love some, thanks. Hey, Nova, isn't that your mom driving angrily towards us?"
(NR) "I'm not talking to you."
(MA) "But you were saying such nice things when is as unconscious! What, do I have to pass out to get you to say something nice about me! Mmmmm. What flavor is this?"
(NR) "Cheery Cherry Fudge."
(MA) "Love it! Shall we go back to the US, then? Land of the free, home of the brave, America, America... I forget the rest, but it sounds good! America is such a big country, but then again, so are India and China and South Africa and Australia and Canada! There are a lot if big places in the world. Actually, if you think about it, the world is just on big place inside a bunch of bigger places! It's quite like one of those creepy Russian dolls things where one goes inside the other! Oh, you must be Nova's mom!"
(PR) "I'm going to slap you."
(MA) "Oh, it runs in the family �" that's lovely! A real treat for future generations."
(NR) "Uh..."
(LH) "Homeward bound. Yep... This has been quite the adventure."
(NR) "Still the tiny matter of the needle in her arm."
(MA) "I'll pop it out later when it gets a little bit infected. It's like a giant splinter, really �""
(NR) "It's bleeding!"
(MA) "People bleed �" get over it. God knows what you must be like she you get your period; the whole world must come tumbling down."
(LH) "Congrats, you now have 3 people in a small car who want to kill you."
(MA) "Just like old times..."
