![]() It was summer when it happened a bomb struck the U.S. and several other major countries. There were survivors, they hid away under thier protective shield, they called it Haven. Decades past and new generations were born. Haven was sustaining them with everything they wanted, but soon some of the younger people started wondering what was out there. So a group took off and traveled for many miles until the reached the eastern coast. They found nothing as they traveled there, nothing but the empty skeletons of long broken houses. They reached the east coast and they thought all was hopeless, they wanted to get home but it was all the way across the country could they make it by walking? They decided to set up in an underground parking lot they found. They traveled down to the bottom to get away from the scorching heat outside. There they found three cars a Camaro a Volkswagon Van and a Vista Cruiser inside the cars were dozens of full gas canisters. That night they drawed straws to claim the cars. In the morning they decided that they would start on thier way home. Edited by Everlasting Nirvana, August 20, 2010, 11:48 pm.

It was indeed a bad start after all that happened and all her friends were dead.Yeah,you heard well.Dead.The damn situation couldn't get any worse,but still she tried to keep her hopes high. "Ok and now what?The heck..am I supposed to do?Where am I supposed to go?" said a female voice walking with a small rucksack on her back and lighten up a cigarette,walking slowly across the road as the desert was seen in sight.Indeed there was much hot,as the sun shined brightly than ever with a high temperature and made the air to feel dry. "God damn it! My leg hurts again..the hell?Am I all alone?!!" she shouted there near the desert view and heard her own echo. "Well..I guess I can still walk for a bit,need to find some place to rest.Good though,that I don't see people coming back to life,like in the movies with the Z's..Now that would be funny!" said to herself laughing a bit and continued to walk;she was wearing a white top and some short jeans with some sandals. This indeed will be a long day,but hey! Who knows what might happened next? |

He was walking slowly along the road looking into his bag and his secret collection of black and milds a days journey outside of the Haven he had come across an old safe he pried it open and found them their. He took out a black and mild and smelled it "mhmm wine" suddenly he heard a scream and dropped the cigar "God Dammit what the hell was that" He bent over and picked up the black and pulled outthe Zippo he had found in the safe and lit the cigar. "Well time to see what made that noise he started out at a slow jog slowly zipping up his bag putting it back on his back and started running while smoking the cigar he soon saw a body at first he thought it was a mirage so he called out to it "HEY YOU OVER THERE" he yelled trying to make the person hear him. |

Crina still had her cigarette between her lips as the smoke was spreading up in the hot air,she got out from the bag her sunglasses and made some more few steps down the road. "Damn heat.damn Sun!! I want winter,with snow..and I hate my shoes,why from all days I had to bring these?!" complained to herself,as then suddenly she heard a voice calling from far away. "is..that a Human being?Nahh! I must be imagining things,though I didn't took any drugs lately!hmm.." said as she started to rush over where that person was waving her hands. "hey!! I am here..we are ALL ALONE?" she shouted so he can hear her voice,still holding the cigarette to the left side of her mouth. I really wonder that if..we are the last ones left?That can't be!! I..am stuck with a guy in all this desert island?!Crappy shit..just great..Sure today,isn't my lucky day! gave a quick thought and stopped in the middle of the road waiting for the guy to reach her location. |

He approched her slowly not knowing what to think of her or what she would think of him. He was wearing a sleevless white shirt with a black vest on a pair of black pants and black boots. well i must be a strange sight to see coming out of the desert all alone he thought to him self. When he was twenty paces away he quickly sized her up not seeing any reason to be threatened he continued toward her. |

"Hi there..what brings you here all alone?well,stupid question!! Duhh..!! Do not answer to that.." said Crina with a faint smile,and put her bag down as the dust raised from the ground a bit and looked at him behind the sunglasses. "Damn shoes..I so hate them!! Ah,excuse me.I am Crina,nice to meet you..well,the situation isn't that good,but hey! I think it would be worse that we would see dead people walking around.." tried to joke and begun to smile wider and got her left hand out to shake hands with the new guy. God!! I am stupid sometimes..why did I even mentioned that?now he must think I am a freak..hmm..he doesn't look to bad.He must be around 18-20 at least.. she thought a bit looking at him and smoking her cigar.

He looked at her slightly annoyed and thought to himself please dont tell me i will be stuck alone with her her first impression is not a very good one i so hope she is smarter than she seems He wiped the exspression off of his face before she noticed and extended his hand towards her Hello my name is Kratic but you can call me Krae He slowly shook her hand then removed his bag and set it down with a heavy clunk and asked her to go gather some wood. I have some food in here if your hungry and some fresh cold water He tossed her a bottled water out from the bag. |

As they shook the hands she smiled a bit at him,but it was more like a fake one.She indeed made a bad joke and felt bad about it. "Nice to meet you..Krae.Oh..from where to gather wood?I don't see trees around here..or I must've got blind." said Crina taking off her glasses to look around,while soon he threw at her a bottle of cold water. "Thank you..and uhmm,I am not hungry,yet.." replied to him and threw away the cigar,so she can drink some cold water in that hot day.After a short while,she finished half of the bottle and put it in her rucksack and closed the zipper. "so..hmm..what we do now?Where do we go?and..where the heck are others?" said Crina a bit worried and continued " we aren't all alone in here,now are we?" turned to face him again and waited for an answer. |

He slung his bag over his shoulder and started walking |

"Oh I see..man! This is bad,an evil and fucked up world.I am telling ya'..I started to hate it." said Crina to the new guy and threw away her cigar,and took a quick glace."A bomb you say?hmm..seems like we are in a Sci-Fi movie or something.So,we are camping?" asked then Crina with a small smile. This for sure will be a very,very odd experience for myself..he doesn't to bad,but at some point..he kind seems out of place or something.Or it is just me ?nahh.. gave a thought and wiped her sweat with a napkin from her forehead,and looked upon the clear blue sky and the bright sun. "We really need to make or find some shelter..or we will die on this heat!" complained a bit annoyed Crina and put on her sunglasses again,beginning to breathe heavier from the raising temperature. |

No what we will need is a fire for the night without on we we likely freeze to death. He continued walking and stopped when he noticed she wasnt following. Are you coming or not to keep alive here you must constanly move during the day. |

"yeah I am coming.I can't walk to fast on these high heels..Geezz!" said a bit frustrated Crina and soon she was just behind him holding her bag at her back,and sighed a bit. "Do you have any idea where we are heading at least?" asked him curious,as then brushed a bit her curly,blond hair and took a look once again upon the clear sky and the bright sun. This guy is sure hard to read.though I really wonder if he isn't a psyco or a pervert in all this.I better watch my back,just in case.. gave a quick thought as they continued to walk on. |

We are heading to the east coast to see if there is any civilazation there. I have an old map and compass to lead us. He continued walking and pulled a pack of reds from his pocket and his lighter he removed one and lit it. He kept feeling her eyes on his back and he began growing warry of her so he stopped and turned around. Alright so why dont we put up this tent. He drops his bag and pulls out a canvas bag from inside it. He lays the canvas bag on the ground and grabs him a water and drinks a little bit before putting it back in the bag. He then opens the canvas bag and pulls out many poles and the tent. He hands the poles to Crina while he unfolds the tent.

"God, I Hate the desert," Costello said to himself walking along the once road that had been here many years ago probably even before the bombings. He signed, he felt the sun dry out his mouth. He set down his bag and untied the long sleeve button-up shirt his uncle gave him before he left. Costello wrapped this around his face to make it bandanna looking and picked up his bag again. He saw two people pitching a tent off into the distance. "Hopefully they won't try and kill me or rape me in my sleep," He said with a small chuckle then a groan. "Hey!!" He shouted "Is any one THERE!?!?!?" |

He looked up from the was that a voice he heard or was he hearing things he knew that Crina had not said anything. HELLOhe yelled. His echo bounced back at him from a far away cliff. could it be that i really heard someone or was it just my imagination he thought to him self. He reached down into his bag and pulled out some dried meat he had and started to eat it. Maybe leaving the safety of the Haven wasnt a good idea.He was starting to have doubts about leaving. He wanted to go back but he also wanted to continue forward he never really fit in at the Haven but it was his home, but he also wanted to get to the east coast and search for more people. He felt if he found more people to accompany him on his journey he would be less lonely and maybe he would begin to fit in with the people he met along the way. |

"Oh I see..I guess things can get a bit better huh?" said with a small smile while Krae begun to unfold a tent,after saying they will go to the east cost where maybe,there will find some more people,holding the poles. "Hey,you know..this is my first time when I am in this sort of camping,as I never slept in the tent before. hehe funny thing.." tried to loosen up a bit the atmosphere,as form a distance another voice was heard yelling if there was anyone here. "Of course..we aren't ghosts neither Zombies..geezz!" with a low tone as the new guy approached their direction,and Krae didn't seemed very pleased by the new guy's presence.Crin sighed a bit and then waved her hand at the new guy "Yes..we are here and Alive!!" said a bit louder and then tried to made herself some wind raising a bit her white top revealing her tummy. "damn heat..damn desert!! Where is the damn snow and the cold,nice breeze? want a chill season..grrr.." complained once again and bit her lip,seeing the new guy walking towards them. |

"Great! I don't ghosts or zombies!" Costello shouted back as began to jogged over to the people. Finally some people, hope i remember how to speak He thought to himself as he reached the campsite. Within a few minutes he was there. He paused to grab his canteen of water and a take a swig of it. "Hello, my names Alex but you can call me Costello," He said with a bright smile trying to size up the two people he was standing in front of. "want a drink?" He said offering the canteen to either off them as a friendly gesture or a trade for something |

I have plently of food and water in my bag are you hungry? He pulled out three frozen steaks, the last of his fire wood, and a grate to put over the fire to cook the steaks. he looked over at his tent and sighed a quickly looked back down in his bag and pulled out a larger canvas bag and handed it to Costello. My tent is to small for three people you and Crina go set this one up while i get started on a fire. Turning his attention to crina he said you can choose which tent you wish to sleep in but i only have 2 sleeping bags. He then pulled the two sleeping bags of the side of the bag. |

"Hi there,I will call you Alex.I like to be original..I am Crina." replied with a warm smile at him and covered her tummy back with her white top and then turned to face Krae saying something about not having enough space in the tent nor sleeping bags."Oh and..I don't drink..for now.Maybe later" said again to the new guy. "meh..Do not worry.I can sleep outside.I am used to it..plus I got a small blanket with me." said to him and then sighed looking over at the sky,while it was getting a bit darker,still a nice breeze passed by and made her short,curly hair to swing a little.She indeed was a beautiful woman with nise feminine forms,even though Crina has been through a lot,she did took care of her body at least trying to eat healthy. "If you need any help.shout,OK?!" said to Krae as he went to set the fire-camp a bit further from their current location. |

Costello cringed a little but passed it off. "Okay, I preferred if you didn't 'cause only my uncle used when I was deep in trouble," He left out the part of how also only mom used Alex right before she died. He put a hand through his long matted hair shaking some of the desert sand out. "So where you from?" He asked Crina as sat down on a rock. He felt a cool breeze go by, refreshing against the slowly setting sun. "if you don't mind me asking," he added quickly. |

He came back to his bag to get out his cooking tongs and noticed the tent on the ground. Yall should set up before it gets dark. he walked back over to his fire casually tending to the steaks pretending not to look at the new comer. can he be trusted or is he going to get us killed. He had never really trusted males they were dangerous and decietful. |

"hmm..it's fair enough.Then what about Leo?instead of Costell..that's to long.."replied with a small,faint smile Crina at the new guy and then lowered her body to the ground and tried to put the tent all together. "I am just from the town which got destroyed..great view,isn't it?Meh,but I think it could be worse than this." said again still trying to figure how to fix the damn tent when Krae got back,saying they should fix it soon before dark will set. "I am trying..can't you see?But I never was good with tents..Do you mind if you give me a hand,Leo?" asked him with a gentle voice,and stroke a bit her hair taking off the sunglasses and attached them by her top,right in the front to hang on. |

"Umm... sure I've never been called Leo before," Costello said getting to help her with the tent. "I'm not good with tents either," He picked up the longest pole "So let's make it the fun way," He pierced the ground with it. He then made a circle out of the shorter around the long one in the center. Costello then grabbed the canvas and put it over the poles making a large dome. "Wait I forgot something," He said looking around the tent. He looked up Crina "done.... horribly," He said with a slight smile "I think it's good enough, what do you think?" |

"Ok then..Leo it is!! wuut!! Well,I guess still it is better than being alone,huh?" said to him as he tried to fix the tent and Mio slightly bend her head to one side.."hmm..I don't know.We should ask Krae." said to him and then his his shoulder playful and with a smile she got up waving her hand to Krae. "hey!!! What do you think of our tent?Do you think it will survive this night?" as she tried not to burst into a laugh.But hey,at least he tried and that made her feel a bit better. "as I said before..I rather sleep with the stars above my head as I look at them.I ..don't like tents to much." said pouting a bit like a small child and looked at Leo this time a bit happy.
