Then all I'll have to deal with is whatever's left of you. Hope I'm not as worse for wear. This conversation felt so fucking absurd . Erika laughed, and threw up her hands. "Then we're the last two, and we’ll try and kill each other! I dunno, dude. At least we'll know what's coming. We know it...

"I don't think..." Try. Since that day she and Michael had met at the Temple, Erika had tried to kill almost every single person she met, and mostly succeeded. Michael only got to walk away out of a promise to play the villain, a road she could now very clearly see the end of. The remainin...

"You were there? So he wasn't alone?" Her heart sank. Tears ran through the hastily improvised warpaint around Erika's eyes, ridding it of whatever menace it ever had. It wasn't very good armor to begin with, not for things like this. Every night she'd slept against a tree or in some horri...

There wasn’t really a good answer. Neither of them had come this far to have a sudden change of heart at the last moment. Diego was another well armed opponent; one who was still, for the moment, tending to his wounds. It made sense to kill him. She knew he saw things the same way. She also knew he ...

" If. If you get off this island." It had never been a sure thing. He had to have known that. The state they were in now, the obstacles left to overcome - neither of them had any right to expect victory, here. Especially since they still had one another to contend with, eventually. Erika s...

Erika let out a hollow chuckle. You people. The only way she was like anyone else he met, was that she also wasn’t him. She knew where it came from, though: One against all . There wasn’t any point in addressing that. She’d forced herself to see things the same way, after all. At his explanation for...

"It'd be really weird if you didn't." Erika bluntly replied. Thankfully, Diego didn't reach for anything other than medical supplies. Maybe he'd done the arithmetic in his head, maybe he was so preoccupied with the wound in his face he didn't still realize the danger he was in. Either way,...

It was hard to look away from the nasty-looking red canyon hewn through his cheek, but Erika did so the moment he mentioned the other gun. Erika eyed the bag. It was zipped closed. If he was trying to utter a threat, it wasn’t a very good one.She could reload and shoot him before he’d have time to d...

Kelly’s mouth was stuck open, appearing to be unnaturally wide given the gaping tear in the side of her face. If she was screaming, Erika couldn’t tell; the sound of gunfire muffled most everything else. It all seemed to fade away as Erika’s sole focus was putting Kelly down. It wasn’t like she was ...

It seemed like it had worked. Diego wasn’t on her side, but he wasn’t on Kelly’s anymore. Whatever alliance between them had brought them both into the Gardens, it was now broken. All Erika had to do was to figure out how to break the stalemate, find a way to walk out of here in one piece. Erika did...
