George noted the oncoming traffic and shifted her weight. The hoverboard responded, veering to the left, across the street and up onto the sidewalk. Downtown looked different with the taller buildings. Only one or two of them were true highrises, but the town definitely seemed a little more substantial than it once had, though it retained its small town feel.
She watched a dark-haired man in nice clothes step out of an office building. One of the city buildings, she thought, though she wasn't certain. He paused, looking around curiously. She might have taken him for a tourist, admiring the small town downtown vibe, or wondering where to find his destination. Only Madison didn't get tourists. And it hadn't for...like three hundred years now.
So, not a tourist. A New Chum, as they said in The Moon Is A Harsh Mistress about new inmates to the lunar prison.
George slowed and stopped a few feet from the stranger. She kicked her hoverboard up and snatched it out of the air. She was wearing knee and elbow pads, gloves and a helmet over Jeans and a t-shirt. She really needed some ridiculously cute stickers to slap on her helmet to really sell the Skater Grrl (tm) look.
"You look like a tourist," she announced. "But Madison doesn't get tourists. So I deduce that you're looking for something. What or who are you looking for? Maybe I can help."
