[All of these reminders of Westport have been weighing heavily on the citizen's of Mayfield who remember that horrible place. Hitler has been keeping his head down and avoiding the Hazmats and Sergei as best he can. But he has been listening to the information being passed around. He's also taken to carrying around his one souvenier from Westport. The half burnt police badge with the name -an Olney. And every day on the way home from school, he's been stopping across the street from the police station. Staring, for just a few minutes, wondering what kind of circumstances could have lead to this mess.]

Evan Olney..... I wonder what led him to betray his friends....

... What are you doing out here alone?

Mr. Sideswipe...

[Hitler is also surprised to see him out wandering around.]

I was just.... thinking.

[He's just been roaming the streets, in case anyone's running into the hazmat creatures.]

About what?

Westport... and Mayfield....

[He's fiddling with the badge in his hands absently.]

And Grady.

[He notices that fiddling, and raises an eyebrow.]

Had any startling revelations, lately?

No.... Just...


I wonder what led Evan Olney to betray his friends. There must have been some kind of circumstances involved....

Betray?

You mean... before whatever happened in Westport?

Right. It just seems like he must have had a reason...

[He shrugs.]

Power, maybe. I hear it's a very large deciding factor in betrayals.

It is but......

[He hesitates to add this next part. Because he doesn't want to be that one to say it.]


But so is fear...

That...

[Is a fairly terrifying thought. But he bites it back, opting for a more... neutral comment.]

... That's true, I suppose. Wonder if we'll ever know for sure.

I'm afraid we might find out just how true it is fairly soon.

[The potential for one frightened person to give in and hand the mayor and Lucy what they want is very real. Actually, he's expecting it.]

... You make a good point. Too many people, willing to save their own exteriors by destroying someone else.

But.... But what if this is like Westport?

[He doesn't want to suggest this, but he's been worried about it since this whole mess started.]

What if something like this happened in Westport? Did we ever find out why the Hazmats showed up there?

Date: 2010-10-26 07:52 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] weaponsparked.livejournal.com
[He doesn't know how to answer that. Not right away. His hand tightens on one of the blades.]

... If this is like Westport, we're all going to have to be more prepared to fight.

I... don't know how the hazmat creatures arrived there. They just... were.

From: [identity profile] springtime4me.livejournal.com
I was actually talking about what happened be... fore...

[He stops as something tickles at the back of his memory. Something that was shared after Westport. But it's been a long time since then, so he could be mistaken...]

Do you think anyone has kept a copy of the notes and letters found in Westport?

Date: 2010-10-26 08:37 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] weaponsparked.livejournal.com
[He's trying to remember what he learned in Westport, everything he managed to piece together. It's difficult, after all this time.]

... I know they do. I don't know who, but they have to have kept them.

I kept mine.

Then maybe someone collected all of them. I guess it couldn't hurt to ask around.

Ask around, if I were you. Someone should know.
