Finished shopping Mar still felt like at any moment she'd have the store manager or the cops chasing her down and throwing her in jail and it would be a serious charge. She'd gone over board once she'd started filling the cart all the way up to the top with quality stuff she'd have passed on till today.

So not having a car or seeing one Mar began pushing the cart up the street ignoring the sidewalk for the smooth pavement. As she made her way she heard a bell sound from a bit away and wondered if she could have heard it with the city filled with people then she stopped dead in her tracks.

It was a temple or shrine bell and some one must have been ringing it or else who or whatever had put her here was playing games with her  

So she nearly jumps out of her skin when she hears [color=red]”And who the hell might you be?”[/color]

Stopping she looks and sees a dark skinned girl 

[color=62B7AD]The name is Martha and you are the first person I've seen since I woke. Unless I have slipped into some delirium or this is a dream I have no idea what or where the hell we are[/color]

V had stopped pedaling as if her life was in danger as she thought of her situation. ~Why was she here, What were their goals?~ I if they'd had nefarious plans then they'd gone to a great deal of trouble to set this up. 

Pandemic was out because she'd seen no dead bodies; war as well so what was this all about?

Stopping her bike she decided this required an extreme test so she parked out front of a beautiful home and went through the gate at first planning to find a rock and put it through a window she decided instead to test the door which she found was unlocked. Next she looked inside to see if it were a façade, an empty shell; it wasn't. Every room had furniture, the closets held clothing and the other things you'd expect to find; hell even the fridge was full as well as the cabinets.

Puzzled she mounted her bike and headed to the shopping district once more and that's when she heard it; a shrine bell and she nearly wrecked.
