Yes i know...ANOTHER STORY NICK! but this idea just ran into my head and it's an idea that involves everyone.
I thought i go back to my roots and write another mystery story. So think of this as the reboot to Role Player's Island expect it'll be called The Towns.
If your interested then a simple name and age would be perfect.
Synopsis
When New Heights High School win the last football game of the season and school year. A bus full of 20 students, most football players and the rest students and adults who came along. When the bus blows a tire and with major damage to the wheels, it was going to take a few days to fix.
A group of students decided to find a town for help. A decision they would soon regret.

The Towns
He looks out the window, panic spread across his face. The street is empty and the fall is far down. It’ll hurt but he needed to get out. He looks over at the locked door. Someone on the other side continued to hit it over and over.
“New Heights has the ball right now and from the looks of it, yes I think they’ll be going for the field goal”
The stadium is sold out, each ticket running 5.00$ a person which was the highest the away school ever sold them. The grass is bright green and the two teams stand out so beautiful. New Heights wore red and blue colors. Their whole uniform was red but their helmets were navy blue with the school wildcat printed on the side.
“Get out here boy!”
The boy looks at the door then outside the window, He puts one foot out and takes a deep breathe.
“This is the last game of the season and school year for both these teams and you can feel the electricity in the air”
The kicker for New Heights get ready as another player gets ready to set the ball up. Meanwhile the boy looks down towards the street, putting his other foot out, the door breaks open. The boy sits on the window and pushes off while the other player throws the ball to the kicker and he decides to run for it.
“A TRICK PLAY! THEY’RE RUNNING FOR A TOUCHDOWN!”
The announcer screams in excitement as the crowd goes wild while the kicker jumps over a tackler, he continues to run. The boy hurts his leg but he starts running.
“He’s running!”
“PAST THE 60…PAST THE 70! IF HE GETS A TOUCHDOWN THEN NEW HEIGHTS WILL WIN THE GAME!”
The other announcer screamed, he was excited also, the boy in the misty, foggy town turns the corner where all the locals wait with torches and weapons, the boy is screamed
“Please…I sorry…please don’t!”
The kicker breaks through several away football players, inches away from the touchdown line. The boy In the town steps back then he turns around to run off when a pitch fork pierces his chest, the kicker is tackled, he never reaches the goal line and the clock runs out!. The away team starts celebrating, winning by 7 points more. The kicker removes his helmet, revealing his long black hair, his blue eyes stare at the run out clock. His sweaty face looks over at his disappointed team. He stands up and looks over at the away team, all celebrating, some even mocking New Heights.
“Christian, get your helmet...let’s get packing!”
The kicker nods, he picks his helmet up and walks off, in shame and disappointment. Meanwhile in the town, the boy’s body is dragged by two locals
“Burn him before dark!

The Townswww.youtube.com/watch?v=qlOqXcPkUis His face bored, dull. He leaned his head against his fist as he stared out the window in the last seat in the bus. Black headphone in his ears and the music blasted that came from his Ipod in his cold, wet hands. Ethan, 17 with big green eyes which resulted in the giving of the name 'Bug' growing up but he dared not bring his elementary years into his coming last years of High School but he rather have bug then the new names that have been rising up for the last few months. His hair was brown and lengthy. just gently ending at his eyebrows. He stared at the dark grey sky and fog filled desert."Ethan.." Alex Jordon sat across from Ethan, Alex was the same age and height as Ethan both friends growing up. Alex had dirty blond hair, brown eyes and perfect skin. He leaned over, looking at the sleeping coach then back at Ethan."Ethan!" He said, slightly louder. Ethan heard his name, he looks over at Alex as he takes his headphones out."What? It's like midnight" "Move your backpack, I'm going to sit with you" Ethan grabbed his backpack and put it between him and the bus wall, Alex quickly made the switch."Thanks" "Why did you want to move over here?" "Call me what you'd like but the smell of sweaty guys makes me sick. I know you hardly sweat being a writer so i thought i sit with you" "Oh right well your most likely going to be called something for sitting with me. 'Friend Of Fag-Boy' is the latest one i heard" Alex never got over the fact that Ethan, His best friend was gay. Alex ignored the name and chuckled silently."If it honestly bothered me then I'd defend myself but it doesn't so...don't worry about it because I'm not" Ethan shrugged, placing the headphones back in his ears. Alex reached into his pocket and took his phone out. He saw 5 missed texts and 1 missed call. All happened during the football game, He gets curious and reads the texts first.'NEED YOUR HELP!'he reads the next text...'Something weird is going on here'The texts only got more disturbing. The last one reads...'Brother, They know i'm here and i need to leave b4 it's 2 late" He quickly calls his voice mail, Ethan sensed him moving alot and looks over. He sees the panic spread across Alex's face. He takes one of his headphones out and gently asks."Everything already?" " Alex, It's Mike...Listen I'm in...SHHSSZZZSSSHZT...the message fades in and out and becomes static-y"I tried my best to find out the truth....SHSHHHSSZZTTS...I don't have much time now...damn it...they're outside the door!...Listen, I love you brother, I know we had our arguments in the past but that's the past. I love you, Mom and Dad..I hope I'll see you in another life. Goodbye....SSHHHSZZZT"the message ends, Alex looks at his phone in pure shock. Ethan narrows down his eyebrows, curious."Alex, What happened?" "HEY! WHO'S TALKIN?" The couch woke up, he stood up and saw Ethan and Alex talking in the back."My brother...i think he's dead" The driver, a 50 something year old man named 'Cleet' sees nothing due to the fog, he turns his fog lights on but nothing helps suddenly the bus begins to shake, The couch holds on to the seats. Ethan holds on to the seat in front of him when he looks away and sees out the window. He sees a hill coming toward them. He pushes Alex to the floor, he gets down too when the bus crashes into a side of a mountain.The Towns-6:43 AM- He opened his eyes, Alex feels the pain travel through his body. His ears heard nothing then they starting fading into moans and crying. He pushes himself up, He sees Ethan on the ground, knocked out, He looks over at the seat, a tree branch came from the mountain side into the window and pierced his side of the seat. He looks back down at Ethan. "You saved my life" He smacks Ethan hard on the face, Ethan wakes up in pain."AH! what the hell?" Ethan jerks away, Ethan sees Alex."You okay?" "Besides the pain sitting in my left cheek, yeah...I'm great, What happened?" "We crashed" Ethan and Alex look at the window of their seat."Do you remember passing a mountain on the ride here?" "No, You?" "Nope" They looked at each other and let the idea play in their head. "OH MY GOD!" the girl screamed, Ethan and Alex looked over and the couch was on the floor, blood pouring from his head and clearly dead."Great, we're on our own" "ALEX! Help me!" Alex sees several students trying to pull the driver out from the wheel and the metal wall behind him. Alex stood up and ran over. He grabbed the metal wall and starting pulling back until Two students grabbed the driver and laid him on the ground."What the hell happened?" Alex quickly asks the driver, The old man holds his leg in pain, it's clearly cut deeply. "Damn...I...The fog got thick...i tried to stop the bus until it cleared but it jammed on me and before i knew it, i rammed into the damn mountain" "Where are we?" Ethan asks, the students look at him in disgust, The driver looks over at Ethan."A couple hours away from Pennsylvania but i took a detour to get home faster so we could be anywhere" Alex opened the door and got out, Ethan followed."Alex, Where are you going?" Ethan jumped out of the bus and followed Alex. Alex sees all the wheel blown and the front of the bus smashed in but not to badly. Several students get out of the car including Sarah. a beautiful, intelligant girl that hold flowing blond hair with black highlights. She runs up to Ethan and hugs him which made alot of the guys jealous."You alright?" "Just scared" "Okay guys...The damage isn't bad at all, we find some wheels and we're all good. So how about me and a small group head into the nearest town and find some tires?" "I'm in" Jonathan Jackson said, 18 years old and had a bad temper. He had curly black hair and a small built body. He walked over to Alex and stood besides him. "Me too" Christian raised his hand and walked over, Ethan looked over at Sarah."I'm going to go with him" She nods and steps back."Yeah, Me too" "No, I'm not going if the queer's going" Several students laugh at what Jonathan said, Ethan smiles a fake smile. Alex looked over at Jonathan and grabbed him by the collar and pinned him against the bus."What did you call him because i didn't hear the funny joke?" "protecting the gay-bo, that's cute" Alex slams him back again against the bus"I can do this all day...apologize!" "FINE! SORRY!" Ethan smiles the whole time, Alex releases him"Gay-bo? honestly what are we 5 years old?" "Anyway, Me, Jonathan, Christian and Ethan will be back with some wheels. The rest of you should just stay in the bus and help everyone else. We'll be back" Alex jerks his head, singling everyone to follow him. Ethan waved Sarah goodbye, they walk into the fog before just a figure as they walk toward the nearest town.

The Towns
The cold sent them a step back, like a wave of a strong wind that hit the boys head on. Ethan pulled the strings to his sweater and dug his hands into his pocket.
"Straight ahead!"
Christian points out, Alex looks over as they approached the towns sign. The fog covered most of it.
"Towns? The Towns? seriously if this place is full of hillbillies...i'm out!"
Jonathan said but it seems like nobody listened. Ethan stood next to Alex as they stared at the sign, Christian lead the guys into the town.
"What's wrong?"
Ethan asked, Alex looked over at Ethan
"My brother before he left our home...he mentioned Towns. I tried looking it up back awhile back but nothing came up. My brother also mentioned that he was in trouble, he sounded like he was in a hurry and he told me...goodbye"
"So you think he's here?"
"Maybe...And if so, I hope it's alive"
Alex walks off, Nick looks up at the sign, alone when he hears running from behind him. He turns around and sees nothing due to the thick fog.
"You coming?"
Ethan jumped from Alex placing his hand on Ethan's shoulder, Ethan turned around
"Let's go"
All the local began to stare at them, as they approached the town. Some even walking out of the local barber or the station. All the buildings were the same level, none out grew each other. The child in the playground all stared, all kept the same emotions as the guys all looked at them.
"Can anybody help us?"
Alex asked, no one replied.
"What the hell is going on with these people?"
Ethan said under his breath, Another teenage stood next to Ethan. Oliver Medium. He wasn't part of the football team. He was Sarah's camera man, Ethan knew of Oliver's crush on Sarah. Oliver came up to Ethan asking about her more than once.
"I got a bad feeling about this.."
Ethan sighs
"Why in the hell you have to say that? now something bad is going to..."
"EXCUSE ME!"
All the kid jump, they all turn around. Standing behind them was an older man. Late 50's with balding hair with silver remaining. He wore a white button up with a light brown suit over it.
"Can i help you?"
"Yeah, Our bus got into a nasty accident; just down the road and i was thinking if we could get some help fixing it?"
The man looks over at the town folk and nods once. They all suddenly resume back to what they were normally doing.
"We'd be more than happy to help, Names George. I'll send Ford and his boys down to go check it out"
"Ford?"
Ethan asked, George chuckled, holding his stomach as he did.
"He's the mechanic, We just call him Ford"
Ethan nods
"So you boys just head down to Betty Lou's Diner, order anything you want..my treat and we'll have you up and running in a couple hours"
"You sure?"
Christian asked, George smiled
"Sure as pie, now go...don't get lost on the way"
The guys start walking again, slowly leaving George to stare at them as they walk off. Oliver looks over at Ethan and the guys.
"Sooner we leave this place the better, this place gives me the creeps"
"Let's just go to diner and wait until the bus is ready until then keeps your voice down on the whole creepy part."
The guys reach Betty Lou's Diner. The neon sign blinked once in awhile and the white paint started to chip off. Alex pushes the door open and everyone follows behind him. Everyone stares at them once they walk in. It suddenly becomes silent.
"This is getting old quick"
Jonathan mutters, Alex sees a large table in the back, Alex looks at the guys and jerks his head toward it, they nod. Everyone walks over and takes a seat. The waitress, a older lady with silver hair, skin that revealed her late age and eyes that looked at you as if they were dead. She flips the page in her notebook.
"What will it be boys?"
"Um yeah, George said it was his treat...is that okay?"
Alex asked, The woman stared at him. Her name tag revealed herself to be Betty Lou. Alex looks from the name tag to her face.
"What will it be?"
"Um waters all around"
"I'll have tea"
Ethan says, raising his hand. Jonathan quietly chuckles. Betty walked off, well she didn't really walk. Her feet slide across the floor.
"Figures"
He said under his breath. Ethan looked at Jonathan, Jonathan looked at Ethan
"What's up queer-bate, checking me out?"
"No, I'm looking at a man who lost a pretty important game. I rather be gay then hold that title over my head"
Ethan smiles, Jonathan's smile dies until a much more serious face. Alex grabs Jonathan by the shoulder before he does something stupid.
"Enough you two, Jonathan...We're stranded in the middle of some unknown town with a coach that's dead and several students that have been hurt. We're going to be dealing with a lot when he get back home, So if you can act like an adult while we're in another town?"
Jonathan slowly calm down, he looked over at Alex
"Fine but if he mentions another word about that game, i swear it'll take more than a pretty speech to stop me"
Jonathan looks at Ethan
"It'll be the closest thing to hitting a girl"
Ethan stares at Jonathan, eyes narrowed with hate for him. Betty returns with one cup of Ice Tea and several water bottles.
"Our cups are dirty at the moment, so enjoy the bottles until then"
"Thank you"
"Thanks"
Ethan, Alex, Oliver and the other thanked her as she walked off. Ethan looked at his tea which looked like dirty water. A lemon that was soggy and no ice. Ethan just pushed the tea aside. He looked up at the others and saw everyone in the diner staring at them.
"Fyi, don't look around"
Ethan said, looking down at his sweater. Alex looked at the mirror on the wall and saw all the locals staring at them.
"Okay, This is serious getting weird. I think we should head back to the bus"
Alex stood up when a hand smacked him on the shoulder, He turns around and standing there is George.
"Problem boys?"
"Oh no, It's nothing..."
Ethan smiled as he stood up, Alex was angry
"No, Why is everyone staring at us all the damn time?"
George just smiled, he held his stomach
"Well you'll have to excuse them, we haven't had a tourist in nearly 15 years"
"Did Ford leave already?"
Alex didn't care for his reason, George smiled
"Yes, Him and his boys left moments ago, they should be there by now"
-Meanwhile, Back At The Bus-
Sarah leaned against the bus, holding her camcorder that she used for his broadcast, she rewinds to the end of the game and stops it when the camera zooms on her talking to the coach. Her left eyebrow raises, It shows Sarah laugh then walks toward of the students then the camera cuts off.
"That was..."
Suddenly a pair of two lights appear from within the darkness. Sarah looks over, She smacks the window several times.
"GUYS! PEOPLE ARE COMING!"
Several students walked out, Sarah put his camcorder down, accidentally hitting record as she does. The two trucks stop just ahead of them. All the boys get out and stand near the trucks. Sarah steps back when Ford outs out of the fog. Wearing jeans with black stains on front, a navy blue shirt that reads Ford in the front.
"You guys in trouble?"
"Yeah"
Sarah smiles
"Well me and my boys are gonna fix everything, so don't move alright"
Ford walked back to his truck, Sarah smiled, relief rushed through her when she heard a shotgun cock from within the fog. Her eyes went wide with fear. She quickly stepped and hid behind the truck moments before the gun went off, shooting a student. All the guys stepped out and started shooting. Sarah looked over at the railing and saw a tree down the hill. She jumped over and slide down the hill and hid behind the tree. The guns kept shooting over and over before they came to a stop, Sarah kept her hand over her mouth, her shaking body was no longer in her control. In the other hand she held the camcorder.
"Is that all of them?"
She heard Ford speak, the rest was quiet.
"Take the bus down behind the Riley's place and torch it. The bodies too"
Sarah tried to control the fear but it was to much.
"Where's the blond?"
Ford said, Sarah knew they were talking about her. She didn't move, She didn't do much of anything. She kept her hand over her mouth and kept silent. She closed her eyes and in her head counting down.
The Towns
