*Having left the alley, I find nothing but a pushbike. Its not going to get me far but I cycle out of the village and head North. Having learned to cycle when I was younger, cycling had become a hobbie of mine. In the last few weeks before the incident though, I was not allowed my bike after curfew so it was refreshing to be back on one. I cycle out onto a main road but get tired not even half an hour into cycling. I refuse to turn back though. I have to believe that I can find Bunny and get the answers I need. I have to keep stopping and starting. Its not long before I come across a motorcycle that has been run off the road and its owner presumably taken by dracs. I lay the bike in the ditch by the road and try start up the motorcycle. It doesnt work. I've never driven a motorcycle before but it cant be that difficult. My small body puts every effort into one more attempt. It roars to life and speeds off with me slightly out of control*

*I travel until the gas runs out on the bike. I'm not even half way there and I have no weapons. I sit in the middle of the desert wishing Faith and I had just stayed in the city. what do I do now?! I decide the only thing I can do is to keep walking if it takes forever. Exhausted and hungry has been the norm since I left for the misssion. I hear a scream off in the distance. I automatically run to help even with no weapons. I get to a slight bump in the road and watch from there. A family is being pushed into a van, The house is ablaze. I cant exactly see who has them. It doesnt look like Better Living but I cant be sure. Out of nowhere there are shots flying through the air. I jump slightly as a couple of bikes arrive at the scene. The fight begins, the killjoys push them away from the van. The culprites are taking refuge at the back of the house, despite the flames. I run as fast as I can to the van. Its locked. I frantically look around for something I can use, I find a rock. A little girl inside is crying with fear* GET AWAY FROM THE DOOR *I use the rock to break the lock on the door. The noise of the battle gets closer. I look around the van and see the killjoys retreating. I hammer away at the door until the lock snaps and the door swings open. I untie the family and the father goes around the other side of the house in order to distract the bandits. I reassure the little girl who is hysterical in her mother's arms. There are a few more shots and then silence. We all jump as he pops his head back in the door of the van declaring it to be safe. The killjoys talk with the family. I take the oppertunity to steal one of their bikes*

*I travel along the road, half believing the killjoys will come after me for the bike but they dont. Its been a while since I had a decent sleep, sheer fear has kept me awake. The night falls quickly, I continue in the hope of finding another small town but it doesnt come. The air is begining to get thick. I stop when I see a small cave. I cover the bike well and huddle up in a ball inside the cave. my eyes stay on the entrance to the cave until my eyes refuse to remain open*

*I jump out of my sleep expecting to see something but all that I can see is the light from the sun's rays shining into the cave like a wall of light, too bright to see through. I get to my feet and carry on toward my destination. A little voice in my head calls me stupid. Its been days since she left. How would she have survived the desert, let alone the ocean? I shake that thought off for the hundredth time while digging out the bike. I keep going til I hit a bridge. I stop, unsure whether the bridge is safe or not. I notice something on the ground. Tyre tracks, faint but they might be hers or from skeets. The doubts in my mind screams at me but another part of me believes that these could lead me to where it happened. I push the doubts to the back of my mind and go slowly on the road so I don't loose the tracks. I've never tracked anything so I am extra careful. They disappear every few feet only to reappear further on. I keep following them.*

*I drive on til I reach the coast. The sun if falling again when I stop the bike. I see several tracks around the area. The one I focus on though is the faint but wide ones leading off the cliff. In that moment I can't feel anything. The sun remains hanging in the sky, burning my skin as I'm glued to the spot. I can't help but wonder if she had been involved in the murder of my parents. So many questions float around in my head. My blood starts to boil again. I scream off the cliff* NO YOU CANT BE GONE, YOU JUST CANT BE! *I look for a way to get down the cliff face* I'll find you and I'll prove to them all that Killjoys cant die, not like this! *I run a quarter of a mile before finding a way to get half way down without falling into the ocean*

*I see a kid climb down towards my cave. I call out to her. My voice cold as the ocean in front of me, My clothes clearly damp* You're not goona find what you're looking for kid. *She stops. Clearly unaware that I was here. The fear is written all over her face* Might as well just go home! Stop intruding on mine *I turn my back on her, expecting her to leave at once*

W-Who are y-you? *Her hair is visibley wet but hidden by her hood. her long black coat seems to be wet but hididng her clothes. She sounds vaguely familiar but the sun glasses and bandana hide her. I dont leave, frozen to the spot from fear* You a-are a killjoy, right? You wont hurt me. What did you mean I wont find what i'm looking for? I have to! And you dont even know what I'm looking for!

I dont know what I am anymore... Come on then, you look like you havent eaten in weeks. I just got back from fishing. I get by the way I have to around here. You eat, then you leave, you hear me? *We walk further into the cave and she repeats her question* You're looking for the truck right? well so were many others that have been circling around her for the last few days. Its gone to the seabed along with everything in it. So leave it alone *I get angry but I dont know why. I see the expression on the kid's face and pause* What are you doing out this far on your own? Why did th- your friends allow you to come alone?

*I go to answer and notice she is using the walls of the cave to prop herself you* Are you alright? *I see blood on her hands* um I... I'm looking for someone. I think she can help me and I dont need permission to go anywhere... are you sure you're ok? *I try move closer to see her properly, she turns away, her hand never leaving the wall

I'm fine! Just recovering from... It doesnt matter! * I slide down the wall of the cave, exhausted, and just stare at the intruder* You're not going to find anything but trouble out here. Do yourself a favour kid and go home. You dont wanna end up like the person you were looking for

*I glare at her, suspicious of why she is desperate for my name. I pause for a moment* Its Black Mariah but I guess you can call me Mariah if you want *I pick up a stick and take a small blade from my pocket and start sharpening the stick. I glare at the kid again as she stares at my actions* WELL?! Are you gonna sit down or are you going to leave? No point in just standing there gawking at me! *I muttter under my breath* stupid kid doesnt know whether shes coming or going....

Rule number one of survival kid. Fear Nothing! or at best dont show it. The zones have a way of swallowing the weak. We are whoever we want to be and whoever we Have to be. Got that?

G-got it *She glares at me again. If looks could kill, I'd be dead by now. Something tells me though that's not her intention. I hear the words over again in my head and smaile back at her.* Got it! *She goes back to sharpening her stick* How long have you been in the zones? And why, if you have a knife are you pointing a stick?
