Sara, John, and McDermott entered the missile silo at once and starred up the long shaft and the blinding sunlight that shinned down up top.
"Up the ladder!" yelled McDermott, letting Sara climb up first.
Pure panic rushed through her mind...for the last couple of months things had gone to hell. The men were more violent, Claustrophobia...the fear that they really were the only ones left, made people start to slowly go insane. Relationships were broken and pressure seemed to be everywhere.
They were worse then the things outside.
Cooper had died and Rhodes took over, he had never been the same since Ana.
The small number of them knew the truth, and knew she had to make a run for it...since he wouldn't have ever let her go, but it almost seemed as if letting her leave was a mistake.
He was a heartless bastard...and he killed Fisher.
Sara's heart gave a heavy thud when she thought about him, how could she be so stupid and go for the one that treated her bad...the one who only used her and threw her away like trash all because she was stronger.
"He won't shoot Billy because he got no one else who knows electronics. He won't shoot me ... because I'm his ride. He probably won't shoot Frankenstein because the old doc can talk him silly. But the rest of you? The rest of you better start worrying, don't you know."
John's words rang through her head as he climbed up faster and faster...towards freedom and life.
He was right...everyone who had caused harm or pain, just had a broken heart.
She heard a struggled below her and she looked down, by then the gun shot rang through the silo and the zombie dropped to the ground.
Sara closed her eyes and rested her forehead against the cool metal of the rungs of the ladder.
"Come on, Johnny! We're countin' on ya to fly us to the Promised Land!" Yelled McDermott.
John checked Rhode's gun that he had stolen off him and then threw the empty one down...and with that all three of them started up the ladder together.
Ana had told them where the island was...and to them, it really was the promised land.
