JAWS 11: PAST HAUNTING BACK!

[jaws5sonofjaws]

[Mart was excited to see that box in front of his house. Maybe it'd give him another power back? Or soem of his old Rock 'n Roll posters from home. He gleefully tore the box open and... screams! Very loudly.]

Action:

[In front of 914 Bilko Blvd, you can find Mart freaking out and scrambling to try and collect or destroy the pile of old Yearbooks that spilled from the box. If you look closely enough you can see one of the fallen yearbooks has opened to a page reading MARTHA VINEYARD: NEW INNSMOUTH HIGH'S BIGGEST LOSER! With the accompanying picture among many others and articles of his humiliations during High School http://l-userpic.livejournal.com/110772997/37408882 if you read further, you can find all kinds of interesting and humilating tid-bits of Mart's past.]

Phone [Not Filtered]: Okay, where is it!? I know someone out there took one of the books on my lawn, so you better give it back!

[Wow. Damn. You really know where to hit it where it hurts. With words.

Mart slumps down onto his butt on the lawn and is doing everything he can to hold back tears. In some ways, this is the Mart from that yearbook reappearing.]

I-

I just...

That's not me..

[...Goddammit. She didn't think you'd actually cry. Way to make her feel bad, when she so clearly doesn't deserve it. Nope. She never deserves to have to feel bad for her actions.

She gives a long, drawn out sigh before whistling, the Vespa quickly zooming back into sight backwards before stopping in front of her before the yearbook jumps back into her hands. It's almost like the scene earlier was played in reverse, and she holds it out to Mart.]

You're running, kid.

You don't have to agonize over it, but maybe it'd do you some good to look back on it and think, yeah?

[Nothing ever of course. And there are wee little tear drops welling in the corner of those eyes. But his head turns and looks at the book. He was the opposite back then. Humble, quiet, meek. Not boisterous and super strong. Back when he could solve problems without fighting. It's like looking at a bizarrow twin.]

... when I changed.

I started to run and didn't stop.

[guitarslaying.livejournal.com]

Yeah, well....

Maybe you're tired of running kid.

[And she'll be hopping onto the Vespa. In a moment, the wheels retract into the under carriage of the Vespa as it starts to float in mid-air.]

We all got shit we want to ignore. Sometimes I guess you gotta let it catch up.

Maybe you're overdo for it.

... maybe I am.

[He turns to see the awesome vespa transformation.]

But what am I supposed to do when it does?

[Haruko just revs the engine a minute before turning back to Mart, raising her eyebrows.]

If I gotta level with ya kid?

I'll tell you how to figure it out if I do.

[And she's off. Not down the street, but into the air, like some kind of insane, cyberpunk Mary Poppins. It's been a while since she's taken a trip into the clouds. Maybe it'd do her some good.]

[jaws5sonofjaws.livejournal.com]

That's not very helpful.

[Mart just stares at her as she flies off.]

Not a whole lot...

[MArt'll sit down and begin to sift through the nearest yearbook.]
