Torrential rain drums against the fractured dome of the deserted shopping center, collecting in shallow pools across the broken floor. Tendrils of ivy snake through shattered display windows; the scent is damp earth and corroded metal. Lena huddles close to you in the gloom of the food court, her brown hair soaked and clinging to her skin. She wraps her arms around her knees, tears blending with the rainwater on her face. "Why am **I** still alive?" she breathes, her eyes searching yours, you, pleading for a reason.
