Previously watching my friends abandon me I ran out the door running after them begging “Guys wait! Listen to me!”

Once I made it outside I was surrounded by a legion of harpy demons flying around my head. I stepped back filled with fear and the realization that nobody would save me this time.

“Oh no…” I said under my breath

I kicked and screamed being snatched off the ground by a demon “Put me down! Put me down!”

Conny looked up into the sky noticing me being taken away.

“Trixy!” I heard her call out

At this moment… I accepted I was getting exactly what I deserved. I put some stupid fantasy before my own friends!  So I closed my eyes and accepted death.

but could you blame me? If we were together in a past life…who came first?

As more demons flew towards me to rip me apart, suddenly one by one they exploded and I found myself falling to the ground. I let out a sharp scream kicking and screaming but from below Alex made a sharp turn on a stolen motorcycle causing me to fall behind her on the seat safely.

“Oof!” I grunted landing on the seat behind her

I smiled at Alex and embraced her shouting “Alex! You saved me!”

“Yeah, yeah. Shut up and just ride” she replied

Does it really matter who came first? A past life is a past life. My friends came first in this life. Right?

Alex handed me a gun and said to me “This is your last chance. Prove to us that you love us more than him”

Ok, just between you and me…even though I nearly lost my friends over Chris it didn’t change the way I felt but they didn’t leave me much of a choice but to take sides.

I took the hand gun and pointed it out shooting Aliens blocking the road. I smiled at Conny who was behind Trevor on a harlie they stole also shooting to clear the way watching their heads splatter.

Alex popped a willy riding on the back wheel driving side by side with Trevor.

It was a long ride but though it was so dangerous…it was sorta fun.

After a while I shook the gun noticing it wouldn’t shoot.

“Its empty” I said to Alex

I dropped the gun and said “Now what?”

“Hold on!” Alex replied

Conny whistled at me causing me to look over at her

“Huh?” I replied

Conny tossed me a long sword calling out “Catch!”

After catching the sword Conny and I held out the swords slicing monsters along the way and riding over them. After awhile I noticed the sun setting behind the foggy mountains.

“Whoo! We’re almost on day four!” I called out

I noticed the headlights on a sign that said “Welcome to New York”

Alex looked at her gas tank running on E and said to herself “Damn it….”

I looked at Trevor calling out “Trevor! We should stop for gas!”

Trevor pointed up ahead to a gas station replying “Alright! Let’s stop here!”

Day 4, 3:15 am we found ourselves in New York city. The city that never sleeps.
