Huge boats. With guns. Gun boats.

[Casey Tjarks continued from Puff, Puff, Pass.]
Casey was really starting to regret running away from Joe and his proposal. Sure, maybe shooting yourself wasn't the best idea out there, but looking at the dead girl in front of her started to give her second thoughts. Everything about the scene screamed horrible things. The way her body slumped over the fence, the bloody arrow sticking out of her chest, the vacant look in her eyes. All of it freaked Casey the hell out as she couldn't help but to imagine what horrible fate befell this poor girl.
The worst part though was that Casey couldn't tell if this girl got off easy. She knew some messed up things happened during the Program, so by all accounts an arrow to the heart might not be the worst way to go out. The fact that that was even going through her mind though told her she should have bit the bullet (quite literally) back at that house with Joe. This girl didn't look like she died a pleasant death, so the fact that she might meet an even worse end terrified her to no end.
Backing away from the girl's body, she quickly went back to what she was doing before coming a cross that grisly sight. It was pretty dark out, and it was hard to see anything around her. She needed to get somewhere safe for the night and hide before somebody found her and took her down.
It wasn't long before Casey found the boat house entrance. She quietly opened the door and peered inside, shining her flashlight into the room ahead of her. Seeing nobody inside, she let out a sigh of relief and walked into the building. It wasn't long before she pulled her blanket out of her bag, her nearly useless assigned weapon, and found herself a corner to hide in. Wrapping herself in the blanket, she sat down with her body leaned against the wall and tried to get some sleep. Hoping that maybe, by some miracle, she would wake up soon and that this would all just be some kind of bad dream.
Or that somebody would come along and take her out in her sleep, so that way she wouldn't have to suffer. Either would work for her at this point.
