The three young adults found themselves transported to the edge of..."Las Vegas?!" John asked. "Really?"
Em shrugged. "Amanda didn't give me a specific place, I just thought of Nevada."
"Have you even ever been to Vegas?" Em started to answer but John held up a finger. "Y'know what, nevermind, I don't wanna know."
Em shrugged and raised her eyebrows. "As if I'd get us straight to Area 51. They can pick up on extraterrestrial activity in Alaska, Vegas is actually one of the best hiding spots known to extraterrestrials, because the humans are so strange!" Em laughed.
Amanda nodded seriously and sighed. "I need a drink."
Em turned to her. "You can't have one. You're 20."
"I'm 21!" Amanda said, indignant. "My birthday just came around!"
"Oh." Em blinked. "Well, then, try not to black out. It's...8...5 PM here.
Amanda cheered and ran off. Em looked at John. "Our little girl, all grown up," she joked.
John rolled his eyes. "Grow up, will you?"
Em hummed. "Hmm...no. I'm having ever so much fun being immature."
John sighed. "Fine. But stay close to me? I don't want you getting abducted."
Em rolled her eyes. "Whatever. I'm gonna play the slots while Amanda gets drunk."
John tried to grab her, but she was already gone. He sighed, and decided to find a hotel room, since it was unlikely the other two would think to get one. He didn't notice the man watching them through binoculars and muttering to an earpiece, "They're here."
