Nights blend together in endless dark as my days slip by with unnoticed speed. the sun beats down on my battered body before wind and chill freeze me to the core. Once lost in the Naught Valley you don't come back. if your found...its the remains of animal stomachs or bleached and gnawed bones.

Just twenty-five days ago i was given my second chance...just twenty-five days...

Once through the first door it was locked behind me. the guards waited there only for the reason that a second set of guards watched me from the next door. Rifles in hand they shook ever so slightly. Slowly i removed my smirk as the scanning was complete. Once through i hurried towards the front desk. i wanted my personnel items taken from me.

 

Sitting at the desk was a young female officer. her red hair distracted from her face, a very smooth and homely look to her belied the underlying ferocity in her eyes, the unspoken ill-contempt for a devious and dangerous criminal such as i.
