Night 70: Night, Farwell
Who: Sora, Locke Cole, and Byrne Faraday
Where: Section 8, subway entrance
Summary: The trio takes a ferry over to the entrance of the subway station, and then have no choice but to say their goodbyes.
What Sora couldn't quite get over about this place was how nice everyone seemed to be. Maybe it was just because he was used to the institute, where the nurses were kind but always treated him like he was a little kid who didn't know anything. There wasn't any easier way to frustrate him, but none of the rebels seemed to care how old he was, which was nice.
Either way, after Rockhand had given him a set of new radios and explained how to use them (they could talk to each other through them, which was pretty neat, even if Locke couldn't benefit much from them, which wasn't so good) and then gave them a chance to eat and rest, he'd sent them down to the river to meet yet another rebel who captained the boat and could take them over to the subway station the quick way.
It was pretty weird, to go from being stuck in that institute to traveling through an abandoned city by boat, but Sora made sure to take in all the sights. It was nice to get a better look at things without having to wear down his feet even further, and Sora fiddled with his new radio as the boat chugged along, taking them past the abandoned amusement park and the area that held the courthouse before they reached a part of the city they hadn't yet seen.
The first thing that Sora saw were some unmarked buildings, but they sailed right on by those, eventually stopping in front of the station, a green structure that was just as run down as the rest of the place. Sora jumped off of the boat and thanked the rebel before speeding his way toward the subway station. Rockhand had said they just had to walk down the tracks and if they kept right eventually they'd reach the institute again, right?
He noticed the sign that said "Welcome to Farwell!" and tilted his head to the side. It was a sad thing to see, because it reminded him that at one point this city had been thriving, full of people -- not half-dead.
Still, he couldn't focus on depressing thoughts like that for too long. Sora turned back to Locke and Byrne, still clutching tight onto his radio. "So... I guess..." This was where they had to say goodbye to Byrne, seeing how he wasn't coming with. That wasn't easy to say, let alone do, though.
