Jay was in deep thought, The realization that he had nowhere to truly call home and no one he could trust weighed heavily on him, threatening to erode his already fragile sense of hope. Each narrow escape only reinforced the harsh reality of his existence and the harsh truth that he was truly alone in this bleak world.

"You out here alone"? Jay asked Jason. Not quite trusting Jay yet Jason lies "Yeah, for about a year now. You?" Jay looks at the hard cracked mossy road and stops... He explains his situation with Eli and how he hasn't been with anyone in the six years since the great axis death. The only people Jay ever came across either died or betrayed him for whatever reason until two years ago he gave up trying. Vowing to be alone until he's reunited with Eli.

"Damn.. that's not a way I would want to live.. guess right now I don't have a choice" Jason says continuing his lie of being alone. He looks up and points "There's the school, that gate keeps the dead at bay. Wish I could say the same about Vulder" Jay looks confused "Who"? He ask. "Vulder, meanest motherfucking cunt ever lived ".

He continues "That was his boys that tried to.. assault you" he goes on "same thing they did to... Nevermind" He looks Jay in the eyes, his feeling with dread "He's the one that ordered the death of Rosie, that poor babygirl you saw back at that house" He finishes "All because Bob ran out of clean water and couldn't supply more"

Jay became concerned "Jesus fucking.." He goes silent and they continue, reaching the gate they climb over. As they approach the door they enter, not knowing there's a sniper scope aimed at their heads but not to murder them.. to simply watch and observe. "Should we report back to Vulder" Jim Ben ask the person next to him "Nah" Malic replies "We'll deal with them ourselves".

They began to drive back as a conversation struck between the two about what Vulder might do once he had them into a submissive state, "think he'll use one to teach an example?" Jim Ben asked in an excited manner "fuck do you think? Doesn't he every time? probably use that fucking axe or hammer he loves so goddamn much" Malic replied.

Jim Ben became ansty as he continued "think he'll rape them with the hammer first?" Malic looked at him for a second and replied "Jim fuck I don't know dude, quit being such a fuckin freak and shut the fuck up we'll find out when we find out, Vulder isn't going to let them just walk outta there with our water source I know that and Bob does too, after all he is a fuckin nerd".

The shattered and cracked road crunched under the tires as they drove through the city passing deadheads of the walking variety and passing through on whatever roads and streets they had cleared of cars and debris, the night/day was cold and quiet with street lights being lit only because they were solar powered tho they would only last another couple of hours.

Reaching Vulders home they got out and walked inside, there Vulder was ripping apart a rabbit with his bare hands and eating the insides raw as he believed this was the only way to truly appreciate what meat they could manage to get their hands on.
