It never felt as glamorous using $1 bills, but they were a hell of a lot easier to find now that the world went to shit. If any of his men came upon a $50 or $100, Nero would be the one to use it. The rush was good, but it was also necessary. It gave Nero the edge--kept him with it. Kept him on an edge above his men. Protected him from pain. He felt alive. After his second line, Nero pushed back from the table, raising his arms above his head. "Woo! Fuck yes!" He smiled at the two men sharing the room with him. "Go on, go ahead," Nero urged them. "It's good--good shit. Good, good...yeah," he shook his head violently before looking around the room.
They needed a plan. They'd been here in Hilton Head too long. Mild winters--could be a lot worse. Not quite as hospitable as in Miami, though. Though that place had gone to shit. Nothing to go back to.
But what was there to do, then? They'd started the trek north in hopes of finally getting to that settlement in Colorado they'd heard about. They'd only made it to South Carolina when they heard the place had been burnt to the ground by a madman--apparently one who'd come from Miami. City of winners. If there was no need in heading north, they should stay in the warmer climates, maybe...head to Texas, or Southern California. The weather was nice, they wouldn't have to worry about harsh winters.
Nero was not known for his calm deliberation. "Got it!" He turned around and pushed one of his men aside, snorting another line before inhaling sharply. "West! West! Yeah...we'll head...west."
