Tales of the Courier – Made in the Shade
The road is long. 1courier can’t help but think this, as the distance from the impending crash closes rapidly. He pushes the brake pedal to the floor. The ride breaks free and begins sliding sideways from the intense speed.
1courier grins, this was shaping into an exciting day. He holds the wheel steady while turning the ride into the slide. It’s going smoothly when he gets a blast from the audio system. Not only are things happening quickly, but also noisily. However, a message comes through loud and clear. Go around!
Correcting back the other way, he holds the wheel steady, and floors the accelerator pedal. They leave the road way and perilously rocket around the jam up of heavy freighters. Furthermore, the m-com link begins flashing angrily and constantly.
1courier holds the wheel steady, as the ride navigates the harsh conditions along the shoulder. The m-com link continues to beckon. They are almost around the jam up in the center of the highway. Furthermore, the timing is spot on as he pulls the machine back onto the roadway.
Made
They have cleared the traffic block in the roadway, and are heading to the drop-off destination. For the first time on this shocking mission, he has a moment of free time. Then the m-com flashes again. 1courier holds the wheel and presses the ride even harder. Time to see what this machine could do.
The screen flashes on the dash of the ride. 1courier gives a quick double glance. Then he looks again to be sure. The words on the screen are clear and to the point. Answer the m-com link jackass. 1courier grins, he likes this machine more and more.
They are moving much faster now as the highway lanes open up ahead. Additionally the m-com link begins again. 1courier heeds the recommendation of the mysterious screen writer. He releases the wheel for the auto pilot and answers the call.
1courier knows that something strange has occurred, likewise he has a sense of de ja vue. He grins and shakes it off, no time for spooky business, there was a delivery to complete.
In the Shade
He toggles the screen, and it comes to life immediately. It would not take long before this delivery would be in the books. Furthermore he will be glad to be disconnected from this machine. He thinks it would be safer to move to the other side of the highway. The machine does so immediately.
HQ is on the m-com demanding he appear within the hour. He considers the time it will take once he reaches Nalphia. He is aware separating from the machine will take time, however he is unaware of how he is aware. Now, he grins because it is funny.
He confirms with HQ. Also unaware of how he will accomplish this. However, it isn’t his top concern as the road in the distance appears to disintegrate in a cloud of airborne mayhem and debris. 1courier grins. Business as usual.
