Brooklyn is already waiting in the van. You're going to loot as much as you can, so you pack lightly. Only bringing what you need; Emergency items, food, water, and some extra weapons.
You: Alright. That's everything.
You turn to Clem and Marina.
Marina: Can I come with you?
You: No, I'm sorry.
Marina: But I can help.
You: You're still hurt. Focus on healing. One day, I'll let you help me.
Marina: But I don't want you to leave again.
You: Mommy is here, and I'll be back in a few days.
Marina: We can come and help you.
You: No. It's going to be very dangerous.
Marina: Please.
You: No. I'll see you in a few days. When I get back, we can do something really cool.
Marina: What?
You: I don't know. We'll talk about it when I get back.
Marina: Ok.
You: Love you.
Marina: Love you.
She hugs your legs. You put your hand on her back and pat a few times.
You: Be good for Clem.
Marina: I will.
You: Make sure she doesn't get into trouble.
Clem: You're the one going off to get in trouble.
You:That's beside the point.
Clem: Pfft.
You: It's only trouble if my life is in danger.
Clem: It is.
You: Nah, these dudes don't stand a chance.
Marina lets go of you and steps back a few steps.
Marina: Mommy?
Clem: Yes?
Marina: Can you come draw with me?
Clem: Go get the stuff out.
She points the house.
Marina: Bye Daddy.
She says as she starts to run off.
You: Bye.
You smile as you watch her hurrying to the house.
You: I'm glad she can run again.
Clem: She's almost back to normal.
You: I'll start teaching her some things soon.
Clem: What kind of things?
You: How to kick the shit out of handsy boys.
Clem: Ugh, I hate that that's useful.
You: Yeah.
She looks down at your left hand.
Clem: Is it working yet?
You ball it into a fist, but it takes a tremendous amount of effort.
You: I'm sure it'll be fine by the time we get there.
Clem: "Sure" doesn't put me at ease.
You: It'll be fine. Brooklyn has my back.
Clem: Please be careful.
You: I got you.
You step forward, bend your head down, and quickly kiss her.
You: I love you.
Clem: Get those bastards.
You: I will. Promise. I'll bring ya back something nice.
Clem: Oh, what?
You: I'll find something... Probably.
Clem: And before you go.
You: Yes?
Clem: I know you're acting more happy than you really are for everyone. Just keep it up for a few more days.
You: I planned on it.
Clem: Stay safe. Love you.
You: You too. Love you.
You two share one last kiss before you leave her and enter the van. You're driving the car, Brooklyn has no idea where Anarchy is. You're not going to lie, you're slightly nervous about driving. You've never been a huge fan of it.
You: Ready?
She is staring out of the window. One of her arms propping her up.
Brooklyn: Yeah.
You: Don't get too excited.
Brooklyn: Where are we going?
She sounds annoyed.
You: Anarchy.
She looks over at you.
Brooklyn: Why?
You: They're the ones who killed her. They'll come back in a week or so if the rest of their people don't return. Might as well go deal with them... I thought it could help you.
Brooklyn: Ajax killed her.
You: They're his group.
Brooklyn: I guess.
She goes back to looking out of the window.
You: You can get out if you don't want to come. I'll understand.
Brooklyn: No, I'm coming with you.
You: Good... Road trip!
She grunts in response. Not even glancing over at you. You put the van in drive and start toward Anarchy.
