Alex had abandoned the Greenhouse in turn for strolling around the general area, her eyes fixated on the world above. When had it become so quiet? So empty? She could not recall when she started allowing her to feel so melancholy, perhaps the realization came when she knew that there would never be anyone who cared for her at the end of the line. She would die here, they all would. How horrible had they been in their past lives to deserve such torture? Alex would not wish this on her greatest enemy, the thought of eternal loneliness was simply too much for her to bear in these circumstances.





Every day she had hoped, every day she had believed, every day she had wasted on such thoughts was another day her soul began to crumble and eventually her resolve would fade, the rest of her dissolving away with it. She would be rendered to a useless morsel and she would have never been able to truly call a place 'home'.





That was all Alex longed for, deep within her crooked heart. A home, a place where she could invest her days and spend it in obliviousness and comforting solace. A place where she no longer had to hide or fear what lay within the dark, watching her with weary eyes. A place where people inhabited and were able to happy and content with what they had, unaware of what truly went on in the depths of the night in their sleep.





A place where she belonged.

Skyler



​

For awhile, she didn't see anyone besides her fellow warriors. And, for a moment, Sky was pretty sure that everyone had gone inside. Until she spotted a familiar Scavenger, that is. Which, was an itty bit of a problem. For the blonde, at least. Waving her arm frantically in the air, she tried to grab the brunette's attention. As fast as her legs could carry her, the girl quickly caught up to the other. "Hey, Alex!" She yelled. Almost tripping over her own feet, the blonde skidded to a stop right behind her.


She wasn't nearly as tired as she should've been; and she could thank her inhuman stamina for that. Folding her arms behind her head, Skyler put on a small smile. "Okay..." She breathed. "Hate to mother you and all.... But you really need to get inside. Like, ASAP." Alex was only older than her by a year; so it wasn't that awkward talking to her. It wasn't like she was ordering around someone who was decades older than her. In fact, in her eyes, Skyler wasn't really ordering around anyone at all. She was just doing her job.


Which kind of consisted of keeping people safe and alive.
