In the Badlands

June 24, 2007

Echo expected many things, but she never expected she would land in the middle of a dust storm. As soon as the sand hit her, she couldn't see and started to suffocate. She pulled her goggles over her eyes and pulled her breathing mask she brought (incase she landed in the ocean)over her mouth and nose. She tried to stay on her feet, but it was difficult with her 1'inch high heel boots slipping on the loose dirt and high wind speeds. After what felt like ages passed, the storm finally ended. Echo pulled her goggles to their previous resting place on her head and tried to figure out where she landed. She saw nothing but a few bushes and mountains, so she guessed she was somewhere in the Badlands. But the real question was "when" was she? "How far back did I go?", she asked herself. She looked at the watch she stole from a government lab in Rio de Janeiro; the year read 2007. "I went back 1500 years!?" She started to freak out but she knew to remain calm because if she stayed in one area for to long, she would succumb to heatstroke, so she collected her thoughts and started to walk. (Time skip brought to you by BONK! Atomic Punch) She had been walking for nearly five hours and was getting really exhausted. Night had fallen over the badlands, so it was a little cooler than the day. She walked for a little longer until she collapsed. The last thing she saw before blacking out was the silouette of a man in the distance.
