The sun's bright light has become my alarm clock lately, it is also a reminder that i'm still alive. I force myself to get up and gather my stuff for when i go out into the zones.
Damn it, forgot to charge my gun again. I mutter to myself.
As i sit and wait for my gun i look around at what has been my home. The place used to be someone else's house, located in Zone 4, but who ever lived here was long gone when i found it. Part of the house had collapsed and what was left was the main entrance and foyer, kitchen, bathroom, and a bedroom on the second floor. It's not much, but it's home. But not everything is as it seems. After living here for about a week, i found a hidden door that led to an underground basement. It was almost like the room was made for me. there was a desk filled with paper and art supplies, a small, but comfy, bed, a table in the far corner, and a wall covered in books. I spent most of time down there, and I made it my permanent home.
With my gun charged, I headed out into the Zones. First stop, vending machine. It was located a couple miles from the house and i've used it many times. But as I got closer, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. That was when the energy bolts started flying.
I quickly dove behind a nearby boulder and, once the shooting died down, cautiously poked my head up. Dracs.

I poked my head out of the small skylight that the bomb shelter had come with and glanced down the street through the small shrub I had planted in front of it. It seemed that this shelter hadn't done its job; when we found it, it was covered in ash and sand. I was only really glad it wasn't bloody.
"Nothing's on fire," I hissed down to Spec, who was holding me up against her will. "Everything seems..." Hold on, I told myself, what was that near Blackout's house?
White suits.
Oh, crap.
"Get our guns? Stuff's about to pop."

The dracs saw me hiding and started shooting. God, I hate dracs. There looked to be about 6 of them, but there could be more hiding, there was no way I could do it by myself. Thankfully, it looked like I didn't have to. I could see Volume Virus and Spectral Disturbance, two of my closest friends and fellow killjoys, making their way towards me. In these dangerous times, it's always great to have friends.

"Heya, Blackie!" I called with mock happiness, firing madly. "Glad to see you alive and kickin'!" I yelped as a laser discharge missed my ear by a tiny fraction of an inch. "Try staying that way?" I added, ducking another blast.

"As long as you try to do the same!" I yelled back, then cringed in pain as an energy bolt grazed my calf. I fired back and grinned as it hit a drac in his arm. The three of us stood back to back and kept shooting. We were pushing them back, but I still felt that something bad was going to happen. I said as much to VolumeVirus and Spectral Disturbance.

"Blackie, we'll be fine. We're Killjoys, remember?" I grimaced as I narrowly missed a Drac's head; a fatal blow would have been nice. "Killjoys never die," I sang. Spec shook her head. We all knew I overused that line. Hey, I figure I need hope from SOMETHING. Then, a laser blast hit my hand and knocked my blaster away. "Oh, geez..."

I quickly reached down and grabbed her gun, shooting a drac in the leg in the process. I handed the gun back to Volume and looked around. Crap. More dracs had joined the fight and I thought I could see a black car in the distance coming towards us. "Guys, I think we might want to run soon. We've got company."

I breathe a huge sigh of relief. My initial fear of it being Korse vanishes, and is replaced with the relief of seeing a fellow killjoy. I could feel Volume and Spec relax a little with me, and the dracs finally started to fall.

Yes, I'm still running - sort of. But it is lonely out here. Haven't seen anyone else for a while.
