Welcome to The Shortcut
The Scenario
Murphy's Law states that "anything that can go wrong will go wrong." This is exactly the case for 50 Hayden High students who all embark on a class trip to Minneapolis for a two week exhibit. They've been looking forward to this trip for months. After planning and packing these 50 students climb aboard bus #394 for a 6 hour trip from Chicago, Illinois to Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The first three hours are amazing. They stop at various spots along the way and enjoy foods and experiences most of them have never had. Three hours and 47 minutes into the trip they hear a loud pop and then the bus shifts to the right and swerves into oncoming traffic. Luckily no one is hurt, but now the bus is two tires short. This puts the trip two hours behind schedule. The bus drivers calls for help and it arrives. The students are hauled off to somewhere safe and a hour later they are back on the road once more.
Another hour passes and they enter Eau Claire to find that traffic is backed up for 20 miles because of a nasty accident up ahead.
"We'll be late for the exhibit," their frantic teacher Ms. Clayborn informs the bus driver. The bus driver has a plan however.
"It's a shortcut. It'll take us right to the city. Don't worry!"
What's unique?
The Shortcut is not your typical high school role play. It doesn't focus on classes or your typical high school drama. It takes you out of your regular high school setting and puts you in the unknown.
This leads us to the MON, a rural town located in the wilderness of Minnesota. 95% of the rpg will take place here.
These kids must work together to figure out what is happening around them and find a way to survive what is coming. Everyone is not who they seem. Who do you trust? Will you figure it out before it's too late?
The saying goes that anything that can go wrong will go wrong...
Will you change YOUR fate?
