Kate had let her last arrow fly, aiming for the leg of one of those ugly creatures, causing it to stumble and fall, taking a few more along with it. She was ready to punch any in the face if they got near enough when she felt a floosh of air as they passed through the doorway, leaning against the door. Kate braced herself for an impact that never came.
Despite America doing most of the physical work in their escape, Kate flopped out of America's arms and slid onto the floor, her arms cartwheeled out around her. "You can have Viggo," she said. "S'long as I get Orlando." She looked up at her friend and laughed, patting the floor next to her.
"Yeah, Paris," she said, her voice taking on a sort of dreamy quality. "It was warm and there was coffee." Kate closed her eyes. "Mmmm, coffeeee...." They really needed to find more things to be able to make coffee as frequently as they wanted but this trip seemed to be a bust. She didn't feel like taking another chance in going back in though, they'd have to wait another day.
"So what have we learned from this?" She opened her eyes, staring at the ceiling. She held her hang out as she ticked off the lessons. "Don't go in if it seems gloomy and post-apocalyptic. Lord of the Rings may have been a real world somewhere sans Viggo and Orlando. Kate needs to bring more arrows when we decide to go back through again. It doesn't seem like you can star port anywhere around here. We didn't find more coffee." She sighed, looking over at America. "I really miss my frozen peas."
