The Last of Us 2
Gustavo Santaolalla- Forgotten Memories
Chapter 12
They all walked timidly through the once deserted smelly sewers. None of them spoke. Drake was the first to crack the silence. "Okay, this is just depressing." Drake spoke up. "We need to talk about something or we'll all go insane down here. I'll even go first." He takes a deep breathe. "Everyone I ever knew... Is now gone. Except for Ellie of course. It's just.. ya know?" His voice breaks a little at the end. Ish nods sadly. "I had a group once." He sadly confesses. "A man. Kyle. And a woman named Susan, along with their children. The first time I saw them, I was scared. I wasn't sure who I could trust with the world gone to shit and all." Ellie and Drake nod in understanding. They turn down another tunnelway. "They, miraculously didn't shoot me on sight. I couldn't believe it at first. We just traded supplies and went on our merry way. I could tell they were scared but still wasn't sure I could ever fully trust anyone in this world. But one day I just said 'ya know, fuck it? What's living if you don't have anyone alive to laugh at your cheesy jokes" you know?" He laughs sadly, looking distant for a moment. "I went back to look for them, found them and showed them this place. For awhile everything was fine. We were a thriving community, safe. All it took was one door left open. And it all went straight to shit. Infected got in. Kyle and Susan's kids were locked in a room, which I later found out. He- he had to shoot them to save them from a horrible fate. I respect him for that, as blood curling as it sounds. Susan wanted to go back to look for the bodies, she lost her children. I didn't know what to say to her. Later, she-she just didn't want to go on. She hung herself with a rope in the upstairs bathroom of the house we were staying at. Then- I came back here." He sighs in relief, as if he had finally gotten something that had been weighing on him forever, off his chest. Ellie and Drake didn't know what to say. Ellie spoke up. "Sometimes people just can't take it. This life- it's hard. It's not for everyone. But no matter what you keep finding something to fight for. Be it, love for another, a child, heck even food. Life is a gift, that's why it's called the present." Drake looks straight at Ellie. "That was deep." He tells her.
Love you guys!
