We searched frantically through the rubble for my parents, but a gas line in the kitchen exploded. We were blown ten feet away from the house. That's when we saw that everything was on fire. I knew it was over for my family. Taylor's house was burned to a crisp when we made our way there. Next door we heard a muffled cry and found a can pinned under the remains of her home. Pilfering what we could, we made our way to the river and survived there until the gang from the poverty attacks. Alright people, let's settle down. We're having a celebration.

Settle down. We're having a celebration. Woo! And what are we celebrating? Family! And whose story do we want to hear? Erica! Erica! Erica! Erica! Erica! Thanks a lot, G-Man. Someone has to keep them focused. We could have a riot on our hands.

I have another landowner interested in our stock. Just girls? No, they need replacement labor for their farms. Sick has taken out their workers with the lack of oil.

They need people for their fields. You got it. Perfect. We'll weed the oil out of these next few towns, but I should have plenty of new stock for you. I'm thinking we need a couple more shower rooms to keep them clean. We don't want the sick in our holding cells. Talk to Trent and make it happen. While you're at it, why don't you build some solitary cells so you can quarantine them on the way in? That makes sense Robert. No more business. I didn't

I don't know, but the Major General called for us. Major, I need you to put together search teams. We've been robbed. What? When? We're thinking it was at the guard chains this morning. They knew our patterns. Who's in command tonight? Staff Sergeant Kristoff. He's in the briefing tent waiting for you.

We'll watch them, sir. Make it happen, Major. We need to make an example of these thieves to avoid future problems. Yes, sir. Chappie, Unro, go wake up Charlie and Alpha Squad. Tell them to get to the briefing tent, now. Yes, sir! Good morning, Staff Sergeant Kristoff. Sir, I can't believe I let this happen on my watch. I'm really sorry, sir. Seems like they were studying our pattern, Staff Sergeant. It's not your fault. What do you have for me?

Sir, I think it was a refugee squad from the west. The sergeant at the end of the wall says he saw a group move through in the early hours, sir. Were they on foot? How are they moving supplies? Do we have a list of stolen items? We're still working on the inventory, sir, but it looks like it was mostly IV packs. Show me the routes they could have taken out. There are four major paths west, sir. What if they weren't from the west? We should consider all the possibilities. Call in scouts from the North and the East as well.

Roger that, Sir. in the middle. I invite you to my website, SurvivorJane.com, where I write in a conversational tone on topics of how better to prepare yourself and family.
