Once Upon a Time...

They likely felt the world shift, a fragmentation of all they thought they knew. It was the way a fictional character might feel if they could feel every page turn in the book they lived in. It was the beginning of a new story and that meant an end to an old one and they would each feel that.

To some it would feel like they had just died. To others, it would feel like they had just been born. To many, it would feel like both at the same time. It all really depended on who they were and what they were leaving behind.

In any case, this world had something New appear in it. After lightning crackled in the evening sky without any storm fueling it, they would find themselves waking up in the streets of a small town called Burgess. It was a perfectly ordinary Pennsylvania town, a place where the modern mixed with the old, American suburbia at its finest, making it all the stranger that something extraordinary would happen somewhere so ordinary.

"Oh. The movie." Howard's seen similar stuff in person, but he doesn't want to say that yet, because he's sure Sam already thinks he's weird - let's face it, starving kid in the middle of nowhere acting defensive and walking through people, kind of weird. Even if Sam's also walking through people.

"Maybe we should split up. I go down this street and you go up it, and we see if we run into anyone and give a holler if we do."

Sam nodded. Splitting up was probably not the greatest idea, though he had a feeling it was more for Howard's peace of mind than anything else. "Yeah, okay. Just shout really loudly. With luck, I should hear you."
