"Private property keep out." The gate said, but it was clear open. Didn't seem like anyone was there so she went further. 


"Flight deck this way."


"Preparation station this way."


"What the fuck is this." She thought. It was dark now, the only light was from her head lights, and the reflections of cones. She backed up and went to went to pull out. 

"Blue group members only." Another sign said. 

Blue group she remembered, but she didn't remember from what. There was plenty of space here she thought. She looked down the other way, towards the flight deck. There was a pair of lights up further, but they weren't moving. It seemed like a sort of amusement park. 

She crept on, she had a half full tank of gas. So she was fine. 

"What the fuck is this place."

A house was just down the gravel drive, seemed normal enough, but maybe this was the Blue people she thought. 

The houses light was on, just the porch, which made her feel like she had arrived to her parents, but there was something also too serene. Like it was built to look like this, not actually be. No one appeared to be home.
