LOS MUERTOS
September 17th, 2010
It's been two days since the fire at the Abigail residence. Daniel was dead, Travis and Chris were gone, and Nick had left. Madison wouldn't give up looking for them. Victor stopped the car as Madison got out. I stayed in the truck as Alicia got out to talk to her mother
"Mom, it's been two days" Alicia said as Victor walked over to them. I was in the bed of the truck
"We've been south of the compound, we've been north" Victor said
"They could have gone east" Madison said
"Mom, we have to go back to the Abigail. We're never gonna find him like this" Alicia said
"He's out there, I know he is" Madison said
"Travis might have gone back" Alicia said
"Madison, there's water on the boat. We can't keep scavenging. The truck's running on fumes" Victor said

We had arrived where we had left the Abigail. We all got out of the truck and went to see it, only to find out it was gone
"No" Victor said
"Where the hell did it go?" I asked
"No" Victor said
"Where is it?" Ofelia asked. I noticed a raft on shore
"The military waited for us to land. They waited and.." Victor walked away with his hands behind his head
"What now?" Alicia asked
"We walk into the sea" Ofelia said
"Okay, we need shelter. That hotel up the beach" Alicia said but no one was listening
"We should go there" I said. Alicia nodded at me
"Come on, let's go" Alicia said to her mother
"If we go, he'll never find us" Madison said
"He's not looking" Alicia said
"He always comes home" Madison said. Nick made his choice and she had to accept it just like everyone else
"Mom, it's me and you noe whether you like it or not" Alicia said but it was like Madison didn't see her. Alicia walked over and picked up some large sticks. Madison walked over and the two left a message
