It was monday afternoon, partly cloudy with not much signs of the previous storm left in the sky.
the once silent streets of the city had grown noisy and was slowly filling with people now that the storm was gone, though not many, since even if the rain was gone the bitter cold was very much present.
In these cold streets, two old timers could be seen walking through them one male and female. Occasionally stopping to search garbage cans and garbage heaps for recyclable cans and bottles, before placing them in bags on the already full shopping cart owned by the woman. These two was none other than Orm and Minerva, who met each other two hours ago before shortly coming to a deal, temporary assistance for information.
" Okay we can stop here, sometimes i really wish i had a bigger shopping cart you know. thanks for the help orm, go ahead and ask your questions. im giving you two hours to ask them, equivalent to the time you helped me. Then we go our separate ways."
Said Minerva before tying a not in her last garbage bag and tossing a hand wipe to orm, who immediately cleaned the filth off his hands and tossed it in the garbage near him with a sigh of relief. which earned him a chuckle from minerva.
" No problem, and thank you for taking the time out of your day to answer my questions. Now first thing's first, what's the month, day , and year? which city are we in ? what time is it ?"
Orm said before asking questions the most important questions first in rapid succession with a ever so small gleam of excitement in his eyes. which went unnoticed by Minerva.
" you weren't kidding about not knowing key information huh, but i got you, let's walk and talk"
the woman said before pushing her cart, and orm following next to her. she then proceeded to speak.
" we are currently in coney island, Brooklyn New york. New york being a city in the United states of America. if you didn't already know that. And we are in the cold month of December the fifth day and the year of 2006, and it is currently 3:30 pm."
Orm listened carefully to what Minerva said and took out a small notepad from his duffle bag that he "liberated" from that shop back at the amusement park, and proceeded to jot down the information he received.
"How many sectors are there for New york, Are there any sectors?"
Orm asked which earned him a confused look from Minerva.
" Sectors? you mean Boroughs? there happen to be five the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens and Staten Island—each with dozens of neighborhoods lending their own local flavor. let's not mention the fifty states of America you'll have to figure that out yourself."
Orm was pretty much confused as well but he was planning to get down to the bottom of this. good thing he Knew the time now. He was going to milk the two hours he had as much as he possibly could.
