Ana stared up at the dark ceiling and then her large blue eyes tracked down the white brick walls, to the cement floor.

She then looked over to her side and saw her wrist watch laying on the side table, one hand slowly crept towards it and brought it up to her face, it was past eleven, they had gone to bed early that night.

She then put the watch back, and let out a deep sigh, she had broken her promise to herself, she had been staying here for over a year.

She was a bad person, and a bad mother.

Hunter, her sweet little Hunter.

As each day went on it became harder and harder to remember his face, back when they were on the island, remembering Michael was easy, all she had to do was look at her son's face, but as time went on the two most important people to her heart were staring to fade away.

But then again, she couldn't leave, it was forbidden.

She then looked over to her side and saw Rhodes fast asleep beside her, a peaceful look seemed to settle in his face as he breathed in and out.

Ana smiled and then slowly, trying her best not to wake him, slid off the smooth feeling bed, and let her barefoot touch the freezing floor.

She stood up and then pulled on her clothes which were laying around the room.

She put on her boots, almost falling twice each time she stood on one leg, and then looked at Rhodes one last time and smiled.

To everyone else he was a total pain in the ass jerk, that hated everyone and didn't talk much, but to her he was different, he made her laugh and treated her like a real person, which she liked.

She then opened the room door and walked out of the complex.

As she walked her thoughts traced over the past year, how she became friends with just about everyone, and always pitched in to help.

She had became closest to Sara, McDermott, Fisher, and John. Whenever she wasn't helping around the bunker, she spent her time talking with them.

The other men liked her just as much, but didn't dear to try anything since over the past eight months it had became clear she was with Rhodes.

Her new life didn't seem that bad, she had found a boyfriend...who seemed to love her very much, friends and someplace safe.

But underneath it all she knew the truth.

The scientist Vrs. The soldiers...the tension seemed to always be there, whenever they were all in the mess hall eating together, or even rounding up more zombies for Logan, everyone seemed to wanna fight.

Ana tried not to think that way, she knew the soldiers were wrong half of the time, and just wanted a fight, but she had grown to close to Rhodes to take sides. But she wouldn't let that get in the way of her close friendship to everyone.

Logan took a great liking to her, even if the older man did creep her out at times, he seemed kind enough and had his heart in the right place.

The other men she thought as slobs, mean guys who just wanted to get laid...but they were with Rhodes so she put on her act.

But what she really loved to do was just talk with the others, most of all John, he seemed to know what was going on with everyone, he knew about Sara and her relationships with one of the men, and how everyone was on the edge of cracking.

But his smooth deep voice could make her float off to sleep, he was so wise for his age, and seemed to have the right out look about everything, he said the reason Ana and Sara were drawn to the other men was because they had a strange power over them...which was something they thought they needed.

Was that true?

She didn't know.

But the darkness of living in this cave, and all the fights were starting to add up over time.

It was late summer now, and Ana and Rhodes had fallen in love.

But like almost everything, she would walk out to see McDermott and John and talk for a few hours before going back to bed, they would have a few drinks and just talk.

But tonight she stood in front of the ranging fence, where they went to gather the zombies for Logan, She had a small backpack on her back, her hair tied up in a bandana...a shotgun over one shoulder, and a high beamed flashlight.

Sara, McDermott, John, and Fisher all stood there, watching her double check if she had everything.

Her hands were shaking, and her breath came out in large puffs from the cold.

She then looked up at her friends and tried to smile.

"I think that's it."

John then stepped forward.

"Remember what I said, take the first tunnel, and head straight...don't take the first shaft, keep going left and guide yourself from the red lights...until you find the silo, take the ladder up...use the keys to unlock the gate, take the second helicopter."

What the soldiers didn't know, what Cooper didn't know...what Rhodes didn't know, was Ana and the others had been planning for her to leave for the past three months.

It all started one night when she went to John and told him she needed to find her son, but they had to find out a way without Rhodes finding out, he loved her to much to let her go.

So he told the others, and they all formed a plan...they was drawn out and thought over on even level.

First, on days that the men were busy down below, John and the others would go up top, saying they were going on runs for anyone else in the area...but really John was teaching Ana how to fly the spare helicopter...something she got right away.

Second was staging how she would get out of there, the elevator was to loud, and the only other exit was on the other side of the fence were the zombies were...but Ana was gonna take her chances.

There was an old missile silo all the way back, which seemed to be the perfect exit...there were only about twenty zombies out back, which were pretty spread out, and they gave Ana enough guns in case something happened, which had silencers on them.

But Ana was gonna run as fast as she could.

Then there was, what would they tell Rhodes?

They all planned to stage Ana's death. Another idea would get Rhodes to go crazy and go looking for her.

Dr. Logan was also in on it, and talked to.

They went into his fresh cadavers, which he had brought along when everyone was assigned down in the bunker when it first happened. These bodies could stay fresh for over ten or more years in they were held in a deep freeze.

There were only nine left, but one of them looked around Ana's height and age...only problem was her hair was dark brown.

So Logan used bleach and did her hair up the night before, then made Ana pose for him as he looked her over...seeing if anything really stood out.

After that he asked her to leave the room, he needed to work.

Now the body was snuck out by him and Fisher less then an hour ago, the rest of the men were either asleep or playing cards in the mess hall.

They took it to that exact spot and laid her down on the ground, a sheet covering the body. When Logan took it off everyone turned around, holding their hands in front of their mouths, He had used some of his tools to gash up her face and most of her upper body.

He then poured heated blood from his lab all over the clothes that were was dressed over the corpse, and with everyone's help they tore part of the shirt off and wedged it in-between the fence, then threw the body over...some of the zombies looked at it, and kept walking.

The plan was, the next day, Rhodes would find a note, which was on her side of the bed...it was a suicide note, telling him how happy she had been with him, and really wanted to be here, but she couldn't take the fact that her son was dead, and that they might be the only ones left, how she loved him, but she just didn't feel happy anymore, and how this was the only way.

Rhodes and the others would go running around the complex like madmen, looking for her...before they found the remains of her shirt near the fence...she jumped.

Rhodes would start screaming, struggling against the men who held her back, calling out her name before someone would see the remains of her body on the other side, they would later on, after Rhodes was sedated and fast asleep in the lab...they would bury it up top, and try to figure out why Ana, such a sweet and happy girl, who was asked, less then five hours before her death to marry Rhodes, to kill herself like that, most of all why would she, since she had found out she was pregnant with Rhode's child less over two months ago.

Rhodes would be in shock, but then turn against everyone, never wanting to talk about it ever again, turning into a dead lost soul that would kill without a second thought, a man who just didn't love anymore, up until the day he died. Hating everyone...most of all those things.

Ana did love Rhodes, and wouldn't ever wanna hurt him, but staying here...pretending she loved him was all a lie, she loved her son more, and was gonna risk everything to find him.

She then looked at everyone again, her heart pounding, she smiled and then went over and hugged Sara first. A woman that had became a sister to her.

She hugged Fisher next, and deep down inside, she wished Sara and him would find each other one day...they seemed to have something beyond the eye between them. She smiled looking at his soft brown eyes behind his glasses, and then went on to McDermott, and he wished her good luck, giving her a quick...but loving hug, then she moved to John, who looked as if he was about to cry.

They didn't say anything for a while, until he brought her close and said...

"We're gonna find that island one day Ana daddy...and we're gonna know everything is all right when the sunset."

Ana nodded, trying to hold back from crying and held him as tight as she could.

"Be safe..."

They then pulled apart, using the back of their hands to hide their tears, and then smiled.

"We shall meet again." John said, and with that she took one last look at her friends, and turned and walked up the ladder, and then on the other side, nothing was here yet, but without thinking, she turned on her flashlight, and ran without looking back.
