No Help.... The warning painted on the hospital wall was haunting, sending shivers down Molly's back as she studied the bell tower that had been swarmed by geeks. She wasn't even sure why she was here, there was no point hanging around as there was nothing to see but miles and miles of tall buildings and that never fading cloud of dust.
The bells chimes had ceased to exist as soon as she arrived, and whoever had been there were long gone. Why am I here? Looking for a group that I walked out on only a few hours ago. I should just forget about them... There not my problem anymore... But if it was them then why were they here? Why weren't they with the boat, I thought they were going down to the river unless....
Her train of thought was interrupted as she heard the sound of the doors rattling at the base of the building, the geeks trying to break in. As she gazed down she noticed a ladder lying on the road, probably fallen from the building and taken out of few geeks when it collided with the ground. Unless something happened. Molly marched over to one side of the bell tower and stared towards the nearby streets and towards the Manor where Lee and his group had been staying.
Maybe I could check on them, see if they're ok... No, they're not my problem, not anymore, they'll be fine, they always are. No matter what happens they make it through.... But what if they're not? What if they need help, what if they need me?.... I can't, I walked out on them I can't go back, that's in the past now, I need to look forward to a life on my own.
She turned away from the view of the street and made a move to jump to the nearby building when she glanced back. I could just drop in... Just a visit, make sure they're all ok, make sure that I'm worrying over nothing... Not that I'm worried about them but still I just need to make sure. Yeah, that's what I'll do.
She turned towards the hospital and sprinted across the bell tower and leapt across the large gap, gripping with Hilda and pulling herself up. She noticed a fire exit at the end of the building, an easy route down. You never know, they might need me. They can't survive without me after all. She thought smugly.

No.... No, no, no, no, NO! This can't be, this isn't possible... I only left a couple of hours ago. Molly gazed up at the Manor and at the geeks which wandered aimlessly in search of food. They were every where, the house was completely infested, crowded, all of them cramped together in a closed indoor space.
The back door had been knocked off its hinges, lying broken in the doorway and being trampled upon. Some of the loose wooden boards had been torun from the windows and the glass shattered by undead hands. The ivy covered shed which had once kept the boat safe from the outside world had both doors wide open, the boat missing.
"Lee...?" Molly hissed through gritted teeth as she saw she was beginning to attract unwanted attention. "Anyone...?" She murmured and quickly backed out of the doorway when she noticed a few getting to close. Lee's name was the first to roll off the tongue as he was probably the only one she had really warmed to. He may have given her a good ass kicking back at the river but he was someone she could rely on, the only one she really trusted for so long, he was a good leader, she had her faith in him and maybe even admired him. Maybe even cared.
He's not dead... They're not dead.... They can't be. I don't believe this.... It's not fair! This is what I fucking get for getting too attached to other survivors, it ruins everything! Never again.
She studied the house. But I can't just leave... They could still be in there, they could be trapped. She glanced around at the geeks again. No way, no one could survive in there. But then... What do I do now? Walk away? I've been through worse shit than this, I don't even know if they're dead, they could still be alive, hell they could be down by he river right now, sailing off into the sunset like some fairy tale.
Whatever happened, it's not my problem. It's not! Don't get so fucking sentimental Molly about a group of people that you barely even know! You don't need to threat, you don't need to worry, you don't need to dwell on it. They're not your problem. Not anymore.
Molly sighed deeply, her inner conflict was causing her head to throb. It's time to walk away.

Home sweet home. Molly pushed the door to her unofficial flat room in an apartment complex. It's been a few days since I've been back here.
She flung her back pack over at the sink at the kitchen unit as she slumped down on the sofa and stared off into space, her gaze distant. She tugged at her blonde hair, rushing her fingers through several knots at the back of her head. She huffed gruffly, unable to sit still for too long she stood up and wandered back over to the kitchen and took several candles and matches from the draws and cupboards.
She placed the candles around the room and with a stroke of the match on the match box she lit each one, giving the blackened flat an orange glow. "Better" she murmured aloud "At least I have light now". She watched as newly melted wax began to drip off one of the candles.
She walked up to the window and stared out at the cold night sky, and the never ending void of darkness. The outside world was barely visible, the only noticeable thing was the silhouettes of geeks roaming the streets. Don't they ever stop? She wondered to herself as she moved away from the window and nestled down on the sofa, preparing herself for sleep. Tomorrow I'll probably be up around sunrise for another day of scouting around for supplies.
Molly sighed deeply. She missed Lee and his group, she missed having people around her. Not only had her routine changed but her entire view of this apocalyptic world. She had only really been looking out for herself all this time but now.... She wanted to be with them again.
Being on her own had hardened her, changed her. Change is what gets you killed. Molly stated. But maybe I was wrong.... I don't think I want to be on my own, I don't think I want to be alone....
Molly rolled her head back and shut her eyes. Your better on your own... It's the way it's always been and always will be. Her thoughts trailed off as she drifted off into sleep.

Lone wolfing it? I can see myself doing that for a while, but I'd eventually go insane. Great job so far TKA.
