A second capsule was ejected from Sapce Colony ARK the day the disaster happened. Rumored that there was another 'Project Shadow' inside, but it had been lost and never found. That is until the presant day 67 years since it happened. Eggman has found the second capsule, and everyone is eager to releas what's inside, except for Shadow... until the impossible is revieled.

WARNING: EXPLICIT MATERIAL (RATED R) Hi guys! This is a total silly outlet for me to write Paladin "extras" - scenes that have absolutely no chance of ever making it into the actual story of Paladin, but make me - and hopefully you, too - giggle or swoon. This is not meant to be read as a companion guide, since anything I write here is not a reflection of the "real" story of Paladin. Please note the quality of this writing is likely to be, to quote Tristan, complete shite. And this is not intended for young readers, although I will try to give each "chapter" or scene an accurate rating so you can decide whether or not you want to give it a go.

Becca Rhines and five of her friends spent a week camping deep in the middle of Yellowstone National Park. When they stop in Cody, Wyoming to stock up for the long drive back to Minneapolis, Minnesota they realize that something disastrous has happened. An outbreak at a scientific medical research facility has occurred, sweeping the nation with horror. Determined to make it home and find their families, the six friends set out on a dangerous journey. Will they survive the 900 mile journey? Will their families still be alive? And if they do make it all the way there, what then? Is there any safe place to go or has the sickness destroyed everything? **This is my first attempt at writing a full length book. It is a work in progress, so please be patient. I will be adding to it frequently though. I hope you like what I have so far and I welcome any comments and/or advice you might have! Thank you so much, Niki
