"Ash? Wait come back! Don't leave, ASH!"


I grab the kitchen knife and point it at Cassie, she is at the bottom of the stairs.


"Don't. Step. Another. Step. Cassie."


"A-Ash? Stop, p-put the knife d-down."


Alex walks down the stairs and walks right past us, completely uninterested in the fact I have Cassie at knife-point.


"Cassie. For your own sake, don't follow me."


"Ash i- don't do this... Please."


Her voice starts to break at tears roll down her cheek, fuck her, a spoiled little brat with Gods for parents. Little bitch.


She will pay for this.


Everyone will.


She had 1,000,000 advantages she lucked into at birth, fucking spoiled, I hate her.


I walk out the door and get into my car, I will be back to this place, and I will finish the job that needs to be done,


But for now I have to find a place to go.


1:00 PM Sunday


I reach Chicago, aaaah the crime ridden city filled with spoiled people who take for granted everything they have,

I park the car under a bridge and grab a backpack, and fill it with: the knife from Cassie's house, the gun I found in my house a while ago, 3 water bottles, cash I found under the sink at my house, the spare cloths I keep in my car, my phone, my dad's laptop I stole from the house before I left, a journal, pictures of Matt, batteries, and a flashlight.


I put the bag on my back and look for something that could help me, like a secluded alleyway, or somewhere abandoned where I can live.


3:00 PM Sunday


I found this alleyway with a fence at the back, I hopped the fence and found a old door, probably shouldn't open it.


I kick the lock off and enter, it looks like the back of whatever store this is, someone is bound to come in here, after all it is an office.


So I can't live here.


I start to leave but when I open the door something reflects the light from a partially open drawer, I walk over to it to see what is making that light.


I pull out my flashlight and turn it on, inside the drawer was a diamond ring inside a case that looked broken, I kinda feel bad taking someone's engagement ring, but, this has got to be worth a ton.


I leave and stay in this pathway next to the buildings hidden behind a fence, where could this lead?


4:00 PM Sunday


I'm almost at the end of this pathway, checking the rooms at the back of each of the buildings for stuff I can sell at the pawn shop.


When I get to the end, I see a door, with weird writing on it. It appears to be a different language, the only thing in English reads:


LEVITATE ABOVE THE CLOUDS


COME TO LIVE


PAIN


IS


YOUR


FRIEND


Come if you want to live


Great a cult, very helpful.


I continue to look around the city, looking for anything in general, picking random stuff of value off the ground that could be sold at a pawn shop.


6:00 PM Sunday


I have been dumpster diving for about 2 hours, I have found what I think is about $20 worth of cans, and around $75 worth of other stuff.


Now to find a pawn shop.
