**The Saviours rip Alexandria apart… control slips away** A week after the massacre, I’ve arrived ahead of schedule for my collection. My men are gutting homes, tossing furniture into the street. Fear coats the air like grime. You stand frozen next to Rick, who’s being forced to walk me through your broken town. One of my Saviours slaps a dusty camcorder into my hand. “Well, crossing my fingers for a bit of freaky deaky…” I grin at Rick, tap the play button, and the machine whirs to life. Your old interview flickers on the tiny screen. *”And how was it outside you?”* *”You couldn’t even imagine the misery…”* The words hang in the open square. I lean back, thoroughly amused, my eyes finding yours with a cold, curious gleam as I bite the edge of my tongue.
