It was dark around the time she slid into the new station. The rusted sign read Harriet as it hung from one chain.

"Should we go out in the night?" I asked.

"I think we should be okay as long as we stick to the shadows.". We went into Two where all the clothes Jackson, Jamie, Alec, Dean, and I had found ever since the Botswana started back up. Alec grabbed some lightweight black shirts and cargo pants to match. When we were all suited up and ready to go, Dean carefully opened the roof door and Alec, Dean, and I, accompanied by Jamie, went to the roof.

"Remember, stick to the shadows. Fine any pipes and stick them in the bags, no matter how worn down they look." Alec restated for the umpteenth time.

"I would like to be out of this station before noon tomorrow if you please." Dean mentioned to us. I nodded at the two boys.

"Should be plenty of time to get some of the vital pieces." Alec confirmed.

"Good luck hon." Jamie kissed Alec goodbye.

"I'll be back for lunch." he replied. We slid down to the ground and headed off.

"No later." I heard Jamie say to herself as she watched us disappear into the night.

On the streets Alec and I searched for pipes and other metal things we would need.

"Do you know what a human system looks like?" he picked up a rusted tube from the ground.

"Yea, digestive stuff.". I grabbed yet another piece of metallic tube and shoved it in my bad.

"Well, you'll also need something for your nervous system.". I looked at him, confused, "Your veins Elsa. The walkers bite will travel up your veins, stop your heart which will stop your brain. But the virus goes into your brain and starts it back up turning you into this." he gestured to a walker strolling past. I hadn't even known it was there; it was so silent, yet now, so close. It was strange, even after an entire year of being the apocalypse, I had never seen a walker up close.

She was ugly, a pale color and an awkward walk. It was clear this person put up a fight and lost. Multiple gaping holes covered her body and tried blood stained her face and clothes and, if she was wearing any, her shoes. Her teeth, probably a dazzling white once, were now yellow and brown and cracked to hell. Alec still paid her no mind until we had to leave for another area. We snuck past the undead woman, her image freshly in my mind to this day.

"So, how are we going to remake veins. Aren't those, I dunno, important?" I asked Alec.

"Well we're not going to remake your veins Boss, we're going to have to inject you with that vial of liquid you mentioned. There's antibodies in there that fight off the infection. That's what caused Jamie and I the pain; a mixture of so many chemicals coursing through your veins; you feel as if you have hot skillets all over you."

"Its been a while since I was burnt by a skillet." I stated as we continued and picked up another metal part.

"If my memory serves well, the hardest part was finding a car and some parts to make movement more natural." Alec told himself as we came around the corner to find multiple cars that had been left and rusted. The sun rose, its brilliant light shining over the small town and giving everything a golden glow. The walkers faces, looked towards the sun and they started shuffling back into the houses' their thin numbers thinned out even more; it made it easier to pry open a car's hood and steal some nuts, bolts, and gears.

"I think we're good," Alec said finally, "And just in time too, look." I looked upwards; the sun was almost halfway up the sky. Boy, I thought to myself, time is passing way too fast for me to keep up. Quickly, we rushed back to the train and made it with time to spare.

"Welcome back you two. Got everything you need Alec?" Dean asked, after he opened the roof hatch and descended into the cockpit.

"I think we're good." Alec said, smiling at me. We walked into the platform in between One and Two and entered our train. I couldn't hide it, I smiled back, giddy at the fact I was going to be able to protect Jackson more than ever.
