The doors to this side of the library had filtered out any noise form the other side, nothing could be heard what so ever. Amanda took a deep breath, and sighed to herself in a cool breath of air. The dimly lit room, complete silence, it was almost serene to her. This had been the first time that she was all alone, time to herself to think about everything thats happened over the time. Rey being killed because of her, Logan storming off, now Joey would hate her for letting his daughter die because of a stupid mistake. Amanda felt herself drifting far away from the rest of the world, she didnt want to keep on fighting to stay alive. There had been so much pain around her, so much agonly inflicted into her emotions, that she didnt even feel herself being sad anymore.
Lowering her head into her chest, Amanda sat down against the bookshelf, and breathed to herself deeply. She wanted to be left alone, she didnt want to be around other people. It would only get them killed, she always let people die around her. Her best friend, her saviors, even her mother years ago died because of her. Amandas emotion finally broke through the barrier of darkness, and she felt everything resurfacing once again. This was who she was, a curse to everyone around her. But it wasnt like she wanted to be this way, it was just who she was, someone stronger than she wanted to be. It wasnt that she didnt care anymore, she wasnt immortal. Amanda just wasnt afraid of death...

Clarissa moved through the library doors and pulled her sidearm out while the others followed behind. Moving down the halls infront of the library entrance, they'd seen Amanda. She was slumped over in the corner, face red and what looked like, tear-stained. Frowning, she moved over to the girl and sat down infront of her, Jake crouching down beside her.
"You alright?" Jake asked, putting a hand on her shoulder. Clarissa tilted her head. "Whatever happened to that girl in the hospital..it wasn't your fault, Amanda. I'm sure she wouldn't think that either," she said, recapping on the incident between her and Logan.
Jake raised a brow. "What happened earlier?" he asked.
"Logan decked Amanda in the face cause she didn't want him to shoot their reanimated friend."
"What?! The f**k's Logan? Why the f**k would anyone strike a young girl?" he growled.
Clarissa patted his shoulder. "Calm down, it was all in the heat of the moment. Besides it's nothin' to do with us. Still though, Amanda ya gotta be strong, ya gotta pull through. For your friend and for yourself. Oh and for us! We're buddies now!" she proclaimed proudly.
"What she said," Jake quickly added before glancing at Ashton. "Oh yeah, Ashton, this is Amanda. Amanda, Ashton."

Getting somewhat used to all these new people Ashton began to calm down. His paranoia stopped, and everything was clear with no false sounds or visions. Still though these people were somewhat strangers so he was keeping to himself a bit.
Standing in the back slightly away from everyone he noticed he was intoduced to the girl sitting.
"Umm yeah. Thats me." Ashton hastily stated in agreement with Jake.
Then seconds latter Ashton went over and knelt infront of Amanda. Giving somewhat of a creepy stare into her eyes he gave a friendly smile. "I dont know why she looks sad. Ill ask." Ashton said to himself replying to a voice in his head questioning him. "Why do you look sad, Amanda? Yeah Amanda." He then asked her tilting his head in a funny looking way as if he was some sort of dog. The only reason for the question was because Ashton wasnt exactly paying attention to the whole stuff about this Logan guy.

When everybody was in the room with her, Amanda felt a little embarrest to be on the ground hunched in a ball. She was scared of everything that happened, she knew exactly what it was like to have someone taken away from you in an instant, without warning. But the truth was, it was all her fault, no matter what anybody. Amanda was the one who pulled the gun, who fell asleep, who let her go, the whole thing was her fault. She wasnt up for playing the blame game, the fact of the matter is, Rey was dead, and never coming back. Holding onto her face, Amanda could still feel the bruised eye and broken skin from where Logan had struck her, and she knew the tears would only make it more painful.
But who came into the room? There was somebody knew who mustve followed them or something. He was only very young himself, much like Clarissa, it was different seeing young people still alive even after all of this happening. As the boy spoke to her, he asked why she was sad. But Amanda didnt know what to say, exactly. It was a very emotional moment, but she was completely speechless. She wanted that old, only in her early twenties, but Amanda was still a child at heard. "I..." She managed to speak out in a low, dull voice. Then her vocal chords tightened in her throat, and she could only meek out the sentence. "I just want to go home..."

Frowning a little bit to share in the sad emotion. Ashton was feeling bad for this girl. No one should be on the ground in tears, or even in tears to begin with. He could tell this girl was hurting emotionally, and wasn't doing to good. As he began to think of a way to get her to at least smile, or even get up no thoughts came to his head.
It was then that she mentioned wanting to go home, and the simplest idea came to Ashton's mind. "If that's what you want, then why don't we go there?" Ashton decided to suggest the thought of actually going home. Then again what is home? What is even Ashton's home? Most people now, in this current world didn't have much of a true home, but even trying to find one was worth a shot. "Come on.. Lets stand up." Ashton then said offering Amanda his hand with a very friendly smile, so they get get up off the ground.

"Because there is no home go to! Cant you see that?" Amanda had blurted out loud, and it was uncontrollable. This was the very first time since the outbreak she had done something like this, and it felt really good. Scary as it was that she probably made the newcomer feel bad, maybe even scare him as well, the ending was just the same. There was no home to go to, nowhere to live where it would be safe, and nowhere left to run. The only thing they could do was fight, and fight, and fight, just to survive, for the remaining time left they had as the living. Amanda had always been the weakest in the group, but there was a time when she was the strongest. Maybe all she needed to do was just move on, forget the past, because apparently all it was doing was slowing her down. It was at this moment in her life that she decided to turn over the part in her brain that decided what was best to do what in any given situation, and go back to being her old self. Not realizing it before, but certainly noticing it now, Amanda had a look of rage in her eyes. She could see them from the look on Ashtons face, he was scared, almost terrorized by the younger girls outburst. [Roleplay Closed]

Heart pounding, blood pumping, breathing heavy, Ashton was in fact terrified. The sight of what was going on was shocking, and one of the more scarier things he had seen. The girl, the originally helpless girl was now like an angry beast. All Ashton was trying to do was help her out, and get her on her feet, but now she was mad with rage.
All of a sudden something snapped. Ashton leaped back in terror and spun around looking all over the room. His vision was blurred, and something was taken over his body. Everyone in the room began to look like they were going to attack him with the same rage in their eyes as Amanda.
Scream. That's all Ashton could manage to do. At the top of his lungs he screamed. the only thing that actually made sense to him at the time. Nothing was the same, everything to him seemed evil. His mind, the craziness of his mind had taken over and made things seem unreal.
"Get away from me!!!" Ashton yelled pushing aside anyone in font of him as he ran to the door. The feeling of terror was racing through his body taking over his action. No one there was friend, no one was. The fact that Ashton trusted those people even slightly made his freak out worse. He felt betrayed, hurt, and sad. Continuing to run Ashton sprinted through the building heading towards an exit. Nothing seemed normal nothing. Everything looked as if it was going to kill Ashton so he continued to sprint for dear life, passing all undead without even getting swiped at. Nothing even attempted to chase him. Several tears from the fear rolled down Ashton's face as he made it to the outside and ran down the street. Nothing was safe.
