[#061] Where are They Going Without Ever Knowing the Way (Psych)
Theme Prompt: #061 – Shortcut
Title: Where are They Going Without Ever Knowing the Way
Fandom: Psych
Rating/Warnings: PG
Bonus: Yes.
Word Count: 410
Summary: Shawn and Gus run into a mishap during their latest adventure.
“You said this was a shortcut, Shawn.”
“It was a shortcut, Gus. You just made a wrong turn.” Shawn stumbles another few steps ahead; the phone outstretched to the sky as he moves further away from the Blueberry, striving for service in the middle of the woods. “And now, there’s no service, so Gigi can’t get us out of it.”
Gus squints at his best friend. “Don’t you mean Siri?”
“Don’t be ridiculous, Gus, I can’t afford an iPhone on what we make,” he glances back over his shoulder and rolls his eyes. “Gigi is the Google version.”
“The Google Assistant doesn’t have a name, Shawn.”
“Well, maybe it should. The Google Assistant is a person too.”
“There is so much wrong with that sentence.” Gus huffs before following after him as he heads into the trees. “Where are you going!?”
“To find service so we can get out of here.”
“We should not be wandering around the woods in the middle of the night. I have seen way too many horror movies, and you know the black guy always gets killed first.”
The further they travel into the darkness, the thicker the coverage becomes until Gus eventually gives up and fishes out his phone, wanting to use the light to figure out where they’re going. As he fumbles with the app, he collides with Shawn’s back, recognizing too late that his friend had come to a dead stop.
“What the –”
Shawn hisses for him to “shhh,” but that doesn’t stop it from drawing the attention of the pair of men in front of them wearing ski masks. One of them is standing over a shallow grave, while the other has a body wrapped in what looked like a shower curtain. While it’s not uncommon for the duo to sometimes stumble over a dead body, it’s not what they were expecting at this given moment.
The two ski-masked men look up at them, equally surprised that the duo has appeared, and for a moment, no one does anything.
“Shawn?”
“Yeah, buddy?”
“I’m going to scream, and then I’m going to run. Sound like a plan?”
“Yep. Sounds like a great one. On three?” Gus nods, and Shawn continues: “One, two …”
Shrill screams break the air, and they both turn and run back the way they came. It’s still pitch dark, and they’re about to have killers on their heels, but for now, flailing is what they do best.
