'Ri's walkin' into the back room while I look 'round the front. "Real old," she says, turnin' back at the door. "From Before. They only survived cuz they was sealed up in tough plastic." I whistle low. I know we got some stuff left from them, and Tess has the journals, but stuff like this... "Um...I'm 'bout to turn on a light."
I close my eyes and she turns 'em on. I wait fer a sec t'get used t'the light 'n then open my eyes back up. There's more stuff in here than I thought, and there's all sorts 'a weird-lookin' machines 'n stuff. "Huh," I say. "I guess this is all more complicated 'n I thought." I ain't sure what t'do now, so I stuff my hands in my pockets.
