Small update....

He's coughing now too. I'm pretty sure the sneezing was just a cold, but this...well, I'm not sure if this is the Sickness, or something more normal. I'm checking Web MD to see what's up.

We're pulling him out....

I'm getting worried about Bert. We figured he would be fine finishing out high school. His house is only about a mile away from us, and he always has his phone on him. And while he's at school, well...safety in numbers, right? Anyways, little bugger saw the Problem today. During last class of the day, maths. Inside. Was just standing outside his classroom, he says. Nobody else seemed to notice. Freaked the kid out so much, he ran the whole mile or so from his bus stop here. Didn't think to call us or something, the idiot. Was pouring down rain. Now he's refusing to go to school anymore. Wants to just stay with us. We're debating whether we should force him, and just drive him ourselves. We still don't think anything will happen on school grounds.

Crap, the kid's sneezing. Think he caught a cold. Serves him right. Phone's on practically a fll charge, we would have picked him up.

...Introductions

Tyler's an idiot. He basically made that last post an "About us." Only without any info about us. Anyways, introductions are in order I suppose. I'm Jon. I'm what you would call the brains of this place. I keep the book where we have all of the information we've gathered. Names, behaviors, local sightings, etc. I suppose that's why Tyler(he's been kind of Title Happy since he started reading White Elephants...) decided to start calling me the keeper of truth.

~~~~Jon

Don't listen to him. I'm awesome. Anyways, I'm Tyler. Pretty much the De Facto leader here...uh...let's see...me and Jon met back in Freshman year of high school, been pretty much inseparable since then. Especially since shortly before graduation, when our little...Problem started showing his face. I noticed him first, but Jon was the one who had heard of him before. Heh, he was convinced all this stuff was one big collaborative story or something. Anyways, we found more of us up and down the coast, so...yeah. I'll let our Keeper of Resistance take it from here. Warning you, he's paranoid.

~~~~Tyler

Hey. Yeah, so I'm slide. I don't like putting my name on the internet, for a number of reasons. The Problem isn't the only one. Anyways, started seeing him back down in Cuba at first. He kept showing up in the plantation. One day I decided, I was out of there. Became a runner. But there's only so far you can run on an island. I found...ways to get here to America. Knew a little English from the pirate TV I kept down there, and picked up the rest in the year or two I was running. Bert found me hiding in one of those gutter things that go under the road. Think they're called culvert's or something? Anyway, me and him stuck together for about four months, then we fell in with these guys.

~~~~Slide.

Hi. Name's Bert. I go to one of the local high schools still. I've decided I'm nt letting this Problem disrupt that. I may be in mortal danger, but I want to get a job when this is all done with. When, not if. Keep positive folks, we'll make it out of this. Anyways, yeah, found Slide a while ago, and he crashed in my garage. He's moved in with Jon and Tyler now, and I'm planning on doing the same once I graduate. It's a little weird, not being with the others all the time. But they say they've got me covered, and I believe them. I'm just...not sure what I can do for the rest of the group. I don't really have too many special skills. Tyler's been calling me "Keeper of the youth,"but I think that's just to make me feel better. It bugs me a little being three yearss younger than anybody else.

~~~~Bert

Hey guys! Angie here. I'm what Tyler calls "Keeper of Sanity." That's just his asshole way of saying I'm the only girl, and the boys would all go gay for each other if it weren't for me. Anyways, I'm Bert's older sister. Little prick got me dragged into this when he went and got himself Stalked. Decided I was the one to talk to about it, instead of the cops or some shit. But whatever, I'm over that now. As it stands, I'm living with Jon, Slide, and Tyler. We've got a nice little place over here on the Treasure Coast(Slide says not to get too specific...:p), and we're just...keeping an eye out. Things seem to be going okay for us...Jon says it's because we aren't showing as much fear. We've been...mostly Sane, I guess. Would we know it if we weren't? I don't know. But I feel fine, and they all say they do to, so take that for what you will. We'll update if anything new happens.

We're online

Well, we've finally made it online. We're the Watchers. South Florida edition. Some of you have probably heard of us, through word of mouth at the very least. We started up about a year ago. A few of us watched realized we lived in the same city, within fairly decent proximity. Then we started hearing stories of others. Others being watched. So we decided to do something. So we took a leaf right out of His book. And we watched. We've helped a few runners through our territory, and I like to think they're still surviving, but obviously not everybody keeps a blog. We didn't, for the longest time. But I digress. After helping a few runners through, and one or two falling in with us to help out, we finally decided it's time to go bigger. Netside, folks. Not sure if we really qualify as a "South Florida edition." As far as I 've seen we're the only edition. A few runners have mentioned to us that they've run into similar groups here and there, so...we're obviously not the only ones with this idea. Anyways. You need any info, safe havens, etc. down here, we're your folks. Drop us a line. We make it our job to stay informed.
