Lex's Star

Chapter One

As everything was darkening with the last rays of the day, a woman was walking to the city. It had been a long time since she had been there. She had left the city when the Locos and the Demon Dogs had been fighting for power. She had gone into the forest to live with nature.

Some time ago she had lived with the Giains. She loved them but when Eagle left to rejoin her tribe The MallRats. She didn't see much of a point of staying and left toward the ocean to possibly find a way home.

She was living on the beach until a group that called themselves The Technos came and took over. This group was taking prisoners and setting up prisons on the beach. She took off to hide in the woods. Slowly she made her way back toward the city. The going was slow because of The Technos; they reminded her of roaches in how they invaded and took over.

As she approached Eagle Mountain, the woman was looking for a good place to set up camp for the night. She reached one side of Eagle Mountain Research Lab. The woman looked down the hill and saw what appeared to be two graves. Curiosity got the better of her and she wondered whose they could be and started to walk toward them.

When she got to them she saw movement. It was when she got closer that she realized that there was someone laying by one of the graves.

As she arrived at the graves, she saw him. That's when she saw all the blood that had run down his arms and pooled on the ground around him.

She felt for a pulse and smiled. There was one but it was weak meaning he was still alive if barely. Quickly she took out an old shirt and tore it into strips. She used the torn pieces and wrapped his arms to keep him from losing any more blood.

When she was sure that he wouldn't lose any more blood. She began to make her camp. She realized that she wasn't going to be going anywhere until she knew who he was and why he had tried to kill himself.
