[quote=@CandiBarr] A gunshot rang out and it drew her attention to an SUV near the city limits sign. It was a fair distance away and she had trouble making out what was going on due to a couple houses blocking her view. A gunshot meant that someone was alive. [/quote] Hey, sorry to do this to you (I loved the rest of your post) but I just wanted to point out that Desmond's pistol has a silencer, so a loud gunshot wouldn't be heard. Is there any way you could edit this a bit so maybe she just sees him, or something? Also, [@EndlessThoughts], just noticed that you're starting out in upstate new york. This is totally fine, it's just that all the rest of us are down in Wilmington, Delaware, so you may not run into anyone for..well.. quite a while. You might want to make some/all of that first post a flashback, as in, that's what happened during the first week, before he drove south toward Delaware? It's totally your call.
