acautionarytaleHow does one get a former FBI agent, an ex-Observer, and two other Observers from Boston to Chicago? Why, one takes a road trip, of course.
A... road trip in a Volkswagen Beetle, because OF COURSE THIS IS THE BEST CAR TO STUFF ADULTS INTO FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. NOTHING CAN GO WRONG WITH THIS PLAN. WHY, THIS CAR IS MUCH BETTER THAN A STUDEBAKER!
Why they're even going to Chicago is unimportant in the face of loud music, cramped quarters, endless roads, and the ever-present danger of motels.
Let's see how long they last, shall we?

Astrid is a very thoughtful, responsible individual, and there is no better evidence of this fact than in the way she prepares for a road trip. The car is already stocked with edible and drinkable things, her iPod is charged, there are even a few blankets and pillows to make things comfortable, plenty of money for gas and motels and things, the car is fuelled up and ready to go.
Now all she needs to do is gather everyone up. This is proving difficult, as Observers are apparently like cats. You find one and, in looking for the second you lose the first, and then open a completely random door and there they both are.
She may or may not have one or both of them behind her when she goes looking for Donald, next.
