(Y/n)'s pov

I lean back in my chair, feeling content, with a sigh of relief.

"Alright so let's review the plan one last time." Ashley smirked.

"The plan is in five phases; gather, regroup, trek, camp, infiltrate." She pointed to Oliver for him to continue.

"Phase one will be a collecting phase. Evan and (y/n) will be in charge of finding transportation. Quinn and Grace will be our food group" Grace groaned

"Amy you're our armory gal, Ashley you're getting the weapons. Eva and I will stay back and double check everything." Evan smacked me on the knee.

"We get the fun part kiddo." I laughed and patted him.

"Regrouping will be the easy phase, all of us will return to the mall and go over the plan again. Counting everything of course. And packing our caravan." Excitement bubbled around the room. Evan continued.

"Then I or (Y/n) will drive, whoever's awake to do so. Passenger will assist the driver with anything they need. We are stopping every 4 hours for a maximum of thirty minutes. When we reach Tokyo we will stay on the outskirts of sasazuka station square. We are going to stay with the refugees in their camp, where we will also be planning and scouting how to infiltrate." Quinn had a strange look on his face.

"Hey guys what about the hero?" Grace looked up from her nails for once.

"What about her?"

"She was part angel, if she couldn't defeat the demon king how can we?" The room went silent.

"We will cross that bridge when we get to it." There was a certain dark aura surrounding Ashley as she assured Quinn, thereafter evacuating the room.

"I guess the planning is done." I stood and walked to the door frame.

"We begin phase one tomorrow. Please sleep well till then." I wandered out of the room. Meandering through the halls of the abandoned shopping center. Finally reaching my room I laid my sore body onto the ruined bed and let the night melt away into dreams.

My body moved gracefully, swaying in a gentle manner not my own. A large gown of gold fabric clung to my waist in a tight corset. Beautiful beads and jewels adorning the bust and collarline, the voluptuous and heavy skirt sparked as I drifted to a faint melody. Assumingly my (h/c) locks were done in an ornate fashion. Upon my waist pain a gloved hand, masculine but delicately holding my torso in place as it ushered me in a slow dance. I lifted my gaze from the hand, meeting vivid electric purple eyes staring back at me. A death's head mask over my partners face. Frighteningly I believed I had died. The figure hummed along with the soft melody, swinging my torso and so my whole body. I quickly clutched to the figure's shoulders, pressing to their chest. They chuckled, a shiver quickly ran up my spine. The figure leant into my ear. "Sooner or later love, you'll be mine."

I woke with a start, sunlight shining through the cracks in the curtains. "What's wrong with me?" 'Everything' I sat up and went through my clothes to find something suitable for the days activities. I walk down the hall to Evan's room and rasp my knuckles on the wood. He opens the door.

"Hey kiddo, I'll be ready in thirty minutes." He pats my head and closed the door. 'That was strange.' I meander to the kitchens for some grub. Quickly heating it up and scarfing it down. Evan joins me and finishes his food rather fast as well.

"We should go tell Ash that we're leaving." I say wiping the crumbs off my face. Evan smiles and nods. We jog down to the conference room. Poking my head in the crack in the doorway. "Hey Ash! We're leaving, we'll be back in 3 hours max."

"Okay stay safe." She says barely looking up from her plans. Evan and I saunter to the exit of the mall.

"So there is my truck that we can use but we'd have to put everyone in back cause the front seat can only carry 3 max. I'm thinking we use it as a cargo car?" I say looking up at him.

"Sounds good to me, then for the group we should find a van. I think there is a car dealer around here somewhere. We should start there." I not and pull out my map. Pointing the the landmark. "Yep and just a ways away it looks like a gas station, we're going to need some gas tanks though. Is there a Wal-Mart or something near here?" I quickly locate it and draw up a plan of attack.
"Alright, so we're going to walk to the dealership and look for a hopefully ok van, if it has gas we drive to the Wal-Mart and pick up gas cans. On the way back we'll stop at the gas station and get the gas. Sound like a plan?" I look back at Evan.

"Sounds like a great one." He smiles.

"Alright let's get this show on the road then shall we?"

------------time skip-------------

I sigh in relief as I parked the van. Turning it off I grab the keys and usher Evan out.

"Come on Evan everybody should be done by now. I wanna get packing so we can go!" He laughs at my enthusiasm and quickened his pace. We practically race to the plan room, myself nearly tripping multiple times.

"Oh honey! We're home~" I yell into the room. Everyone looked up from their tasks. Oliver smiles at us.
"Do we have transportation?"

"Yes and a lot of gasoline." Ashley smirks and hugs me.
"Good job. If we have everything then let's get packing." We take this as a que to grab our stuff and put it in the truck, the last few items being everyone's clothes. Wiping the sweat from my brow I smile at everything we got done.

"Ok everyone! The men of the group, go get showered. After that the girls. Then dinner will be ready." Ashley says before leaving for her room. The night carries on as usual, we eat and chat then get ready for bed. That night the rest was peaceful, without terror, leaving me fresh and ready for the trip the next day.

Waking up, I quickly race to the showers and scrub my body, removing all the grime and soot from yesterday's travels. I throw on my clothes as fast as possible, nearly tripping while pulling my pants up. I laugh and practically skip down the hall. Skidding to a stop as Amy comes into view. I smile feeling blood rush to my face as I attempt to make conversation.

"Hope you slept well." She smiles back at me.

"Oh I could hardly sleep, im far too excited." She grabs my hand.
"How are you?" Amy looks into my eyes. I feel my dumb heart flutter.

"Great! Freshly showered and fed, life is good." I smile at my walking partner.
"I don't think I could eat if I tried. Boy am I ready to go!" She replies. Her and I walk down to the meeting room. Ashley makes eye contact and nods.
"Alright let's get going everyone!" The group seems to walk quicker than normal. I grinned ear to ear, glad to have such amazing companions. My face falls soon after however as I realise this is the last time I'll be here. Though it was only a week, I've never felt so connected to a band of people. I stop walking and look back on the old mall. Eva follows in suit, coming over to hold my hand. Ashley and Evan turn around to see why the group has stopped smiling at the place they once called home. And so it seems the whole group has turned, simply to view the mall one last time.
"I bet y'all stayed here for quite some time." I look to Eva, she only blinks, quickly attempting to lessen the salty brine gathering in the corners of her eyes. I pull her into a hug which she immediately reciprocates. Rubbing her back to soothe her I gently pull away and smile at her angelic face, she truly looked like an angel in distress.
"Let's go find home." Eva's face lights up, her hand clasping my wrist and pulling me toward the truck. I climb in the driver's side. Turning the key, I listen to the engine ignite. The purr of the truck lulls Eva to sleep. With determination and hope, I set off to find freedom.
