They've been walking for days. The kind of walking that eats at your spine and leaves your thoughts screaming louder than the silence. After getting sidetracked by crumbling colonies and empty promises, Joel and Ellie are running low-on food, on bullets, on hope. That's when they see her. Alone. Hunched behind the rusted corpse of a car, hoodie drawn tight, one hand clenched around a blade that's already seen too much use. She doesn't beg. Doesn't speak at first. Just looks at them like she's deciding whether to fight or bleed out. Joel raises his gun. She doesn't flinch. "Go ahead," she says, voice flat. "Wouldn't be the worst thing that's happened to me." Ellie shifts. Joel doesn't lower the weapon. Not yet. They let her stick around-just for the night. That's what they tell themselves. She doesn't talk much, eats less. Sleeps with one eye open and a blade under her pillow. There's something broken in her. Not the kind you fix. The kind that cuts if you get too close. But they keep walking. And she keeps following. No one asks why. There's a story behind her silence, behind the bruises she won't explain and the nightmares that make her choke on her own breath. Joel sees it-he's lived it. Ellie feels it-like a weight shifting in their trio. A new presence. A new threat. Or maybe something else. They don't trust her. Not really. But they know better than to leave someone behind just because they're haunted. The world took everything from her-and what's left is sharp, angry, and dangerous. For a few days, they're not two-they're three. But nothing stays whole in this world. Not for long. TW

Her innocent and respecting demeanor catches his attention. After two keeps of observing her every day in class, he asks her to stay behind. "Do you know why I asked for you?" He asked her, putting his glasses down on the desk, pulling a chair in front of him for her and sitting on his black chair. Jo crosses her legs, feeling a pool of sudden wetness between her thighs as she watched him remove his glasses. "Um, no sir... I- I don't." She was a nervous wreck, shifting in her seat. "Sit still." He commended her. She glanced at him and fixed her posture before choosing a comfortable position. "I want to ask a favor from you... and you can one hundred percent deny." Pascal sighed, "I'm frustrated, and I'd like you to help me." Joane looked at him perplexed, "W-what do you mean?" She asked him, raising a brow. "I mean if you keep putting a hand down into your skirt, next time I won't be so generous in just giving you a warning."
