I just woke up and- where the fuck am I? Wait, what happened after the museum thing, I let him go, did the storm take me? Wait no if it took me then why am I in this bed? wait, "and I'm not leaving you alone" that fucker took me out. But where am I right now? Could it be- Fuck.

(Eric goes in the room after knocking)

-Too bad i woke up earlier than i should've, I won't let you lay a finger on me.

-Relax, says Eric, I'm not a rapist, and I'm not gonna force anything, the only thing I'm going to force is you staying in this bunker for your own safety. However, I came here to tell you that the breakfast is ready, I'm waiting for you. Also there's some new clothes if you want to change, and I took some of your clothes from your house, in case you want your things.

Eric gets out and left Jane thinking about what is the best way for her to escape.
After a short while, Jane gets out and finds a table full of food, Eric Satie vinyl playing, and Eric sitting.

-Oh, you're- Beautiful.

-Gnossienne No.1. Beautiful and amazing, it has a little bit of romance I assume you picked it on purpose.

-It's matching your beautiful clothes. How could I not put something as beautiful as you are. Now, shall we start eating.

(both starts eating)

-What are your plans Eric.

-What do you mean what are my plans? I already made it clear that if you want to reproduce again, you'll have to do it with me. isn't it obvious?

-You know what I mean Eric. At the museum you said something about IF we had kids they're not going to reproduce with each other. Eric there's no way you killed everyone on this earth, if you take all humanity to death, there will be natural consequences, and one of them is explosions from all the places. There's no way for us to survive, so there's no way all humanity collapsed and there's only us. The truth ERIC SAY IT.

-Okay, first, I adore your english accent, sorry couldn't resist.
Second, yes I know there's no way.

-means i can now call for help.

-yeah exactly that's the twist, you can't.

-what do you mean by I can't? You said you won't be forcing anything right?

-Yes true, very true, but here's the thing.
Humanity did end yes, but not with us. Jane I'm gonna tell you the whole thing, so please be prepared.

-Just spit it.

-Before humanity ended, some people gathered and they made an event, some were in russia, and some were in North Africa, which made it difficult for any tracers or legal authorities who follows any suspicious acts. On each continent they picked 2 people to choose their partner to mate, 50 people to do the work in stations and all those nuclear power shit, they hold them so we can avoid explosions. Our goal is to recreate humanity, the world would be better without us, the plastic use the amount of trash that we throw on the beaches everything we do, is only to harm Earth, and that's it.

-How about the homosexual people?

-It doesn't matter, they will die like the other unchosen ones.

-No no I mean, what if they choose an homosexual person?

-Before choosing someone, they make them do tests, without telling them that they will kill anyone, means they make a simple test, and if you succeed, you'll be chosen as the one who gets to reproduce.

-Wow, you just showed me that you're not the only asshole that's existing right now. However, the idea of humans are only a harm to this earth is true, but no. Us mating? You killing my family and people's family? No.

-Sacrifices had to be made. You think I don't have a family?

-I don't care, you being able to end your family, doesn't mean I'm able to end my family and feel almost nothing about it.

-Sorry. Says Eric.

-How did you manage to kill us all.

-The answer is simple, a virus.

-A virus? Why didn't anyone hear about it if it's international?

-We threatened the government and the press people. We gave them every information about the virus, enough to make them think about their lives.

-And?

-Come on, of course they'd die.

-Oh, of course you'd kill them.

-Anyways, we should go to sleep. We have to do stuff tomorrow.

Jane stands up with Eric at the same time.
She then walks up to him, looking up to him, since he's taller than her.

-I like your black clothes. She says.

She gets closer to him, steps on his feet and goes: "This is a game where you're going to lose, I'm gonna bring back humanity, then I'll think about being with you. She goes back to her room, while Eric is still standing at his position without moving any inch.
