The girl from outer space got slow, looking at this mess, destruction, perhaps. She is black, has curly hair, is tall, and talks with a light tone. Hathen spots her looks; a Black person, never seen before, must be some sort of an alien, but this cannot be true. Racism is not the right answer to anything, as the girl said, "I need to hide," grabbing Rockin's shoulders as she is freaking out about this. A situation on ruling Earth, she is from the future, the robots, she said.
"I have to go back in time to stop the AI and the inflation! As I am strong and independent, I must lead my future away! My name is Dolia! If you want to ask my name," she smiled.
"I'm Hathen. I am a leprechaun from 1921. Well, this is complicated, but my best friend, Rockin, who is a centaur, and I went back to this timeline after we saw this beautiful painting of the Eiffel Tower, but got stuck in it." Hathen chuckled as he was nervous about some black ass.
"I am Rockin, as my best friend told you, but if the future is not bright, might as well blow it up. Nobody wants to live in a place of no joy but more stress; I'd rather die than live in the future," Rockin said.
"You will not die in the future like this; you are older than the rest of us. Dying around the 1900s is alright, to be exact, but not the 2000s or 3000s. Thousands of suicides will be coming, and there will be no more than anyone," Hathan spits out.
Arinna feels this bad taste from what Hathen said to Dolia, as it is not funny but true; she was thinking about taking her own life if her business did not become successful or even find a full-time job to pay back her parents. This is a struggle for many young people nowadays, as Arianna thought.
"I am Arianna. I know the future will be bad. Tell me one thing that you want to do." Arianna is passive-aggressive to Dolia, but she wants to make eye contact with Hathen so badly. Rockin grabs Arianna's right shoulder, feeling that this is some warmth; something is off, Arianna thought, as she sees dirt on her shoulder and shrieks. Rockin quickly apologizes for it. Hathen follows Dolia, as she never visits Paris. She sees colors, hears the music, and feels the cool air. The nighttime is always the best time for the young people, Dolia said to Hathen.
"Well, any age can go at night; the night is more like spending more time on yourself, but that's only if you have energy or, better yet, let your free spirit let go of the drama. Like for Rockin and me, after our shift, we just drink and hang out, fight ducks and shit. Don't ask me about why we fight ducks.
Dolia laughs about it. It was something that Dolia never knew about the future, but she let out a yawn, and Arianna and Rockin followed the two gangs to the river, where the light bulb held up the light, and it shimmered like stars; Dolia asked for rest. Arianna smiles and takes her hand to go back to the hotel for now.
"Arianna, you two can go ahead; we are not tired. We will be here for now, but we just want to check out the city, even though there are no people and the shops are closed," Hathen said.
"Okay then, but if you need to rest, the hotel we are staying at is called Paris Deluna," Arianna said, walking off with Dolia, as the two girls walk together, as Dolia looks around like this is a midnight paradise.
As the girls are gone, Hathen and Rockin are going to explore.
Each place must be on it.
Most of the museums are closed; that is where the places are famous for, but somehow, they wandered along the Canal Saint-Martin, laughing as reflections of neon lights danced on the water. The pulsing rhythm of Rex Club called to them. Hathen hesitated. "Are we really doing this?"
Rockin grinned. "We came to Paris to experience everything, didn't we?"
Inside, music thumped like a heartbeat. They danced until their feet ached, sharing bottles of sparkling water with new friends from Italy, Japan, and Germany. For a moment, this is a fever dream, drinking as they taste some of the best wines and cocktails around, instant drunkness as their heads are spinning and cocks raised from minors to old ladies, gross as hell, at the bar of course, but looking back, Hathen sees stars and lights, seizires alerts his eys to brain, gettin ghis head shockwaves instantly, he need to run now! Panicked, he pushes the ladies, sprints past tables blocking the way, and runs into the exit door and vomits barf around the crosswalk. They couldn't get out, as they were fully in the present, caught in the magic of a city that thrived both day and night. Rockin saw his best friend out of the way and instantly pushed and kicked all the customers out of the way, as many were angry over the injury. The running Rockin is racing to Hathen and seeing him barf while covering his head. Rockin calms him down and grabs his best friend to his back and walks away from the bar, while the manager screams, "DO NOT COME BACK!!!"
As they stumbled back to their hostel in the early hours, Rockin looked at Hathen. "Paris is insane," he sighed, "but I think we might actually survive it."
Hathen laughed and coughed, looking at the city lights fading behind them. "Survive? Nah. We're going to remember it forever."
The seizures are still in his head and memory, sickened by the fact, slowly, his head is not having waves for now.
There are lots of statues, from nudes to couples walking; it could be like some paradise. But as Rockin examines, this feels like a real museum where, at midnight, no officers are around, so Rockin touches the statues, and Rockin smells it. Somehow, as there is some sweet feeling, could it be they use clay? Hathen sees a water fountain; he decides to look at how realistic and pure the water is, as he sips the water and tastes it, as if it's almost dirty. He spits it out and finds a man peeing on the fountain. Hathen barfs the fuck out and walks away.
"You know, another thing that never gets rid of is poverty! I see beggars around the city, but here and worldwide, I am pissed about it! I drank piss!" Hathen roared. That hobo who looks like Fred Flintstone asks for a fight. Hathen suck punch the fuck out of the hobo's stomach, got his ass down on the ground, fainting, as Rockin and Hathen were shocked but as Hathen grabs the hobo's neck, dragging down to the nearby cemetery, there is some sort of surveillance camera alerting the two monsters, this could be tha they are murderers, as long as if the hobo has his ID card with him.
Fleeing away from the evidence at a nearby cemetery, Rockin is exhausted over the fact that he has to dig a new grave for this hobo for some reason; he is breathing,
"I have to hurry this; this is a first-day disaster!" Rockin cried.
"Don't talk; let's hurry this up!" Hathen roared. The hobo lets out a scream and grabs Hathen's neck, bringing him down to the hole, choking him as he sees stars. Rockin jumped down the hole, crushing the hobo's body, and blood stains the hooves and the guts of the hobo have been turned to shatters, as Rockin notes himself that he made memories of intensely smiling at the hobo and gives a giggle. Hathen crushes the hands of the hobo, letting it go as he covers Rockin's mouth as he whispers, "Not right now, Gorham is watching, even though he is not," with a forgotten expression as he mentions the name, Gorham.
Hathen and Rockin are up to no good; the sirens of the police alert them, and they have to run from the cemetery to the forest, running towards bushes, even though they cannot see anything, and the trees are hurting. The leaves are falling. Her face is rushing and rushing and rushing all over the place that they heard cricket burst owls. Everything, even the crickets, is caught out; their names are haunting as pleas are running in French, running around the places having a flashlight on as a life alert is very difficult as they found a cliff. They really just jump off the cliff, and that's it. There's stuff I asked to do, and the policeman stopped at a cliff, looked down, and saw nothing, but the water was running down to two bodies of water. It could be hard for both guys to get out, but as soon as they explore more, they see the water. The water is everywhere with fish, heavy fish, and turtles, plain since anything else, algae, and even the snakes and turtles are very happy in this area. There's no trash around here, and that must be really beautiful as long as the hours are calling out for the water to be very shiny and clean as Harhen tastes it. It tastes pure. There's no poop and pee in it; it's just the purest thing ever.
Exiting the river, soaked like hell, Hathen sneezed over the cold air and water combined, but as Rockin found something, there were fireflies around the marshes, all over the place, and it looked like they were in space. As soon as the flies lit up, they flew around the guys, and though this is just a sleeping habitat. Hathen and Rockin are happy that the flies are on them, like they are the chosen ones.
Sleeping at the hotel room 1408, Arianna watches Dolia sleeps as Mei look at her like she just there for the free trip, but as Arianna remembers what Hathen said, it angers her that when she is in college, life will give her many opportunities, and after you graduate, they American Dream erupts them to build better futures and opportunities, too rich just because you are smart and well behaved, but this could be a lie, as college is just money making schemes that use people to get a piece of paper to graduate and fail forever just because they could not find their dream careers, which is the saddest thing ever, life is stupid and bad, as Arianna thought. She remembers how her brother Minh worked very hard and got his "dream" job, but ended up miserable, along with her brother Dvid, who is just a man who is stuck in his inner child.
"You know that girl? Dolia is right; I want a Twitter future, but as for what those two guys are saying about life, I feel like I need to travel more, not just scroll on the internet and see pictures of natural wonders. I want to explore inside and outside my life," Arianna whimpered.
"You're right; I mean, I need to talk to more people about culture. I don't want to be alone besides you," Mei agreed furiously.
Something whispered down to Dolia, "I can see your brother dying, each other," haunted Arianna, but she remembers something about what Minh told Vincent about his ethnicity and his life for his parents, not himself; it sickens her, but she still cares for her brothers. Both anger and sorrow. Arinna did not care for now.
Dolia, in her dreams, sleeps with the fact that she is from the future, who discovers a time machine that takes you back to 2001, around the World Trade Center, but here is the burning question: why would you go back to the most traumatizing thing in the USA? An education nonprofit where twelve people explore, but as the tour guide got shot, one member, who looks like a fat Randy Marsh, calls out, "I want to go back, not to learn about this 'masterpiece' that 9/11 is. Why do we hate the Middle East?" Fuck them and let me go back to my wife and kids before they die!"
As the rest of the members ran off and watched the Twin Towers get blown up by the first plane, Dolia was haunted, but as she found the dead tour guide's radio and mini time travel machine, it transformed into a giant bus that looked like the Magic School Bus. Dolia entered the bus and rode without the rest of the members. As she drove past, the future was ahead, as she discovered from dinosaurs talking and roaming around the cities to AI as employers, while the people were either dead or living on the streets, as the robots shot them down to the ground. No people must be around here after a hate crime on robots and humans over the humans calling robots "the world's deadliest human subspecies ever."
Dolis is on the loop of time traveling, going back to the cavemen to BC!
To the wars of emus and kangaroos, to the starving children from Africa, to the Columbine Shooting, Dolia could not do anything until 2003. She was on the air for four minutes; the altitude is about 3006 meters high. How much time does Dolia have before the bus runs out of fuel? (What the fuck should I solve that!?)
And so, as Mei and Dolia are sleeping on separate beds, Arianna looks at the window and sees Hathen and Rockin, dirty and shivering; she is shocked by it and helps them out by rushing out of the hotel room.
As Arianna sees the two guys asking about that happening, the cops come out of nowhere, and snipe darts filled with sleeping medicine knock both Hathen and Rockin down on the ground as Arianna looks at them like this is just the beginning of a new world they are living in.
