All she could smell was the crippling scent of fire and chemicals. Burning... Every thing was burning... It was her fault, too. Nobody else's. Not even David would share the burden with her...not now that he was gone. Tally looked up at the sky which was now shades of a ghostly grey and bloody crimson, like a piece of abstract art that everyone knew was a symbol of anger and hatred. With one hand Tally wiped away the tears. Tears weren't supposed to come easy for Specials, they weren't even supposed to come at all. But they did. Today Tally's tears came and flowed freely,and just when Tally thought they were gone they came again when she beheld the horrendous sight of Diego. In her blind rage of loosing David Tally had brought destruction to the very city she had saved. Her clothes were in tatters and her hair flew wildly in the wind like a battle flag, even though it was tangled far to much to simply brush out. Tally bared her sharp pointed teeth, they fit together perfectly like a puzzle. Though they were covered by dirt, dust, and blood Tally knew her flash tattoos were beginning to pick up in speed once again and the cruel reality would only become more icy and every detail more sharp swords of accusation. The scene would blame her, if not the survivors of this apocalyptic mess. Tally Youngblood had to hide and run once again, and this time she knew no one , not even a tribe of simple-minded savages, would shelter her.
