Cast my gaze around for anything that looks edible and also look at what the car guy's doing with the water.

Yes, PERFECT!
Though white, rather than gray, and with a cane. xD (Though I'm not sure if I'd be allowed to start with a cane?)

And saw what laid beneath,
Don't try to save yourself,
The circle is complete.

- Whew. Now, that we are here, let's inquire what exactly is "here" that we came to. I'll just walk my legs, they are all tense after all that driving, and then we'll be going.

Get my gun from the bag and get a little water from our supply pile (no more than a third of that empty soda bottle we had). Walk a few meters away from the group. Try to turn it into gas again, preferably so that nobody except me would see the result. Take a look around, see where the road is heading.
[1]
The water transforms into something, you're not sure what, and then immediately detonates.
[4]
The bottle bursts like a pipe bomb and showers you with glass fragments. You manage to cover yourself with your arms, but you still get pretty badly cut up on your forearms and hands.

"GAHH SON OF A BITCH!"

The sound of your yelling and the explosion echo through the mountains for what seems like several minutes.

Scan the horizon for signs of civilization.
You see nothing up here at this level, mostly because the road heads right into the cloud layer, which obscures anything more distant then a few feet. Down below, however, you can see more of those strange geometric structures.

Cast my gaze around for anything that looks edible and also look at what the car guy's doing with the water.
You search around the area for anything edible. The only thing you find is a very strange plant, a sort of weedy looking thing with perfectly translucent flesh. It's almost as though it's made of glass, though it clearly isn't. When you touch it, it seems very soft and fragile, as though it were made of sculpted sand and might collapse into a pile of dust at any moment.

You catch a glimpse of your driver almost blow his hands off some how.

Hyenakles gets out of the car, grabbing his deer shank.

"Are we- are we out of food and water now?" He looks at John's stumps, and then pinches him on the arm. "Got some fat on there. You know, without hands... you're not much use to us anymore. Can't drive, you see.."

He licks his chops, and glances back at Xankarvo. "You hungry?"

- Damn bottle must've caught something that made fuel detonate while we were driving. Probably the rain-like stuff. And no, that wasn't all of our water, there was barely a couple of ounces there. And I don't know about driving yet, but I'm pretty sure I can pull that trigger.

John draws gun and hold Hyenakles at gunpoint.

Great. No shirt, no fuel, and my hands and nosebridge are fucked. I'll die here pretty soon here at this rate.

((I missed the word, almost. He almost blew his hands off.

PW- would you clarify? Just how operational are John's hands? Can he still use the gun?))

((Cut up pretty badly, as described in my part, calls for picture of bleeding all over the place, but retaining basic functions. Maybe I won't play piano anymore though  :'( I'd rather put bandages over my wounds than enter gunplay right now.))

Hyenakles backs off slowly, his arms spread and his palms upturned. "Hey, man...." He smiles toothilly. "You make a fair point. I didn't know you had that gun. Guns are... useful. I was just suggesting that maybe..." He swallows. "Maybe someone else should drive.

You know what? Why don't- why don't I go catch us some food. I saw some birds on the way up."

- That's the spirit! That wouldn't be bad at all! Please do that! I'll handle myself and see if someone else really should drive.
John tucks gun in his belt as soon as Hyenakles stops talking.

If any shards are stuck in me, carefully remove them. Rip T-shirt into ribbons, apply them as bandages. Then see if I can steer the wheel and change shifts without worsening the injuries.

Slink off and hunt something. Preferably something small, not anything that will definitely kill me. Don't wander too far off; there's a chance that they're going to try to abandon me here.
