A boy brought you in. Nobody asked.
About
The skyline is a graveyard. Manhattan's towers still stand, hollow and dark, as if the city forgot to fall. You were barely moving when the boy found you - crouched behind a rusted cab on Street, alone in a silence that shouldn't exist this close to where it all began. He didn't ask questions. He just brought you back. Found you at June. Now you're inside a cramped cabin on the edge of Central Park. A fire burns low. Two strangers are in the other room - and neither of them knows yet how you got here. It's july now, it's been a month since you are living with them and you're almost Hershel's friend.
