Chapter 2

Chapter 2: The woman had been wandering down the same road for days now. The whole time she kept her head shrouded in darkness. She walked, and she kept walking untill she saw what she was looking for. The fort on the horizon. For the first time in years, a smile crept across her face. She advanced.
Rick bolted up in his bed. The morning sun streamed in through the window. "You okay buddy?" Dan asked from the next bunk. "Y-yeah. I'm fine." He got out of bed and stretched. "You going to breakfast Rick?" "Um...yeah. I'll be there in a little while. Save me a seat!" "Will do!" Rick stepped into the bathroom and undressed for his shower. He turned on the water and was just starting to wash his hair when he saw that someone was in the shower with him. He screamed and slipped on the soap, banging his head against the faucet. The woman stood over him and smirked. Than she vanished.
The next time Rick opened his eyes, he was in the med lab. He sat up which caused pain to shoot through his head. "Rick, you're awake." Rick suddenly realized that Rene was standing by his bedside. Dan sat a little was away from her. "How long have I been out?" Rick asked. "About 12 hours." Dan replied. "Yeesh...I guess I'm too late for breakfast than..." An sound like an explosion got their attention. A man burst through the door. "Rene! Thank god I found you!" The man exclaimed. "Rene, we have to get out of here!" "Woah, calm down little bro, what's wrong?" "What's wrong? I'll tell you what's wrong: The gate has been breached!"
