I used to love this dress. I think to myself as I rip a strip of fabric from the hem of my skirt and tie it around my partner/boyfriend Elman's hand. Blood quickly pools in the green cotton.
"Damn it!" He cries, clearly frustrated with himself. We had just tried and failed to break in to a supermarket for supplies. It has been almost a year since Project X began and provisions are running low. We may as well be the last humans alive- we haven't seen a live human face in over three months now.
"Oh shut up!" I snap at the yelling hulk besides me, "We're alive and lucky to be it!"
"Are we?" He asks me, pain rippling through his hazel eyes. To be honest, I don't know myself anymore and my face indicates it. I fall into Elfman's arms and he wraps them protectively around me. This time a year ago, I wouldn't allow a hint of affection to escape me. Project X has changed everything. As Elfman finally lets me go, I reach into my bag of supplies and pull out an old photograph from months ago. As I sit next to Elfman, the members of my former scouting team hit me square in the face.
We used to belong to a large group called Fairy Tail: originally a group for young people with bad pasts, helping to put them on the right track but after Project X, it became our home and safe haven. We were placed into teams and given missions. We survived. Fairy Tail was destroyed in a surprise attack about five months ago. Our team took this photograph together just a week before that happened. One girl in the photograph, Cana, died in the attack, along with almost 60 others- our team got split up and we lost three others: Lily, Jet and Droy- we had no choice but to run and we parted from all others held dear. Most of the team died within three weeks: Elfman's sisters, Mira and Lisanna, two of the sweetest girls anyone could know, didn't make it out of a raid on an abandoned hospital; Bickslow- a total weirdo but a really good guy, pranked us into thinking he was a zombie, got his brains scattered wall to wall; Freed, aloof yet kind, went to grab ammunition one day. He put up a fight, but a rapier can't defeat a giant swarm of flesh-eating fiends. His boyfriend, Laxus, the immense, powerful Laxus was never the same: he went mad, refused to eat and in the end died of thirst. We believed Laxus was unbreakable.
It was surreal. By the end of the month, it was just myself, Elfman, Gajeel and little Levy. Poor little Levy. She was seven months pregnant and seriously feeling the strain. She had lost almost everyone she loved in that attack yet always put a brave face on. She brought light to the immense darkness hanging over us and gave us the little slice of home we so desperately craved. Then one day, just over a month after the attack on Fairy Tail, we were forced to run.

Loud groans emanating from behind...
Breathe in, breathe out.
Must keep running...
Breathe in, breathe out.
Zombies are coming...
Breathe in, breathe out.
Death is coming...
Breathe in, breathe out.
I look to the right. Elfman is okay. Gajeel is okay. I can't see Levy. I scream her name.
"Jeez, hurry up Sho-" Gajeel turns back and screams. I turn back. I see Levy. I see zombies. I see a hand plunge into her abdomen. I see blood. I see the corpse of an unborn child, dressed in blood. I hear Levy scream at us to run, her voice gargled with blood. We run. We have to drag Gajeel. Dragging Gajeel means facing back. Facing back means seeing Levy. Seeing Levy means seeing the zombies feast upon her innocent body unravelling her insides and ripping out the vocal cords she used to sing us to sleep with and it also means watching helplessly as her unborn child is ripped limb from limb with its skull smashed across the wall and all I hear is Gajeel's low mumble of
"It's a girl..."
And that's when Gajeel cracked.

Elfman seemed to be thinking along the same lines, as he pulled me closer to him, resting his chin on the crown of my head.
"Ever..." he mumbled quietly, gently kissing the roots of my hair.
