Finally.

Finally, finally, finally.

It was her time to choose.

Door number 1 held promises of paradise, sun, and beaches.

Friendship only led to weakness.

And in a world where government ruled supreme,

Death.

The second, an endless ocean, no land for miles, only sea.

Certainly desolate.

No resources though.

At least the sun was pretty.

And the third.

A plain hillside, with plenty of trees in the distance.

She could build a cabin with some of them.

And there would be animals- water, anything she needed!

Without thinking.

Without surveying every inch.

Stupid population control.

No.

Stupid her.
