Arthur's pov:
Hannah starts telling me about her past before she died, about how she was kidnapped, trained to kill, and how she escaped with her friend. She starts crying after she is done talking, so I try to comfort her by hugging her to try to calm her down. Ben and Leona have gone to get rid of the bodies and see if there are any others like the people that attacked us not long ago. I had wanted to go with Leona instead of Ben going, because I could tell that Leona didn't like me that much, so I figured I could try to get her to atleast tolerate me. But Ben said that he and Leona know where to put the bodies so they will go and Hannah and I would stay here.
When Hannah calmed down we played a game of go fish with a deck of cards I found nearby in one of the shops that had been destroyed, Hannah won everytime.
I have been trying to remember something before the stairs. Back when I was alive. But I don't remember anything.
I decide to look around and ask Hannah if she wants to also. "yeah!" she says excitedly, so we start going tword some of the broken buildings.
The camp is right next to a forest and a city. Well, what used to be a city, now it just looks like the ruins of an old civilization. Half the buildings aren't recognizable. As we walk, I see what used to be a McDonald's, a Burger king, I think I saw a toy store somewhere, but I couldn't tell. As we walk I realize that the sky hasn't changed from the gray it was when I got here. As if she could read my mind, Hannah says. "from what I know, the sky has always been like this, like it's mad at something." shocked I say. "I forgot that your power seems to involve wind in some way." Hannah just nods. Up until I heard her story, I thought she was just a normal kid, she really has been threw a lot more then she should have been, and a such a young age to.
We continue walking for a while, looking at buildings that have been either lost a few chunks or been utterly destroyed. After a while, we decide head back, but then I feel a strange electrical field, like two people in one. I look in the direction that I feel it at, and see a kid about Hannah's age waking tword us. I grab my badge and turn it into a short sword, then Hannah says. "Wait! Don't hurt him!" "what?" I ask. Then Hannah says the last think I thought she would tell me. "that's my friend!"
