And Then There Were Two - 1x1 with Dragontw

[~BrokenEcho~]

Ayla||22||Single||Healer

Ayla slowly lowered her knife as the flashlight came on. She was hesitant to put the knife away so she kept it in her hand. She blinked at the sudden brightness of the inside of the shed. When there was more light, it mostly confirmed her suspicions that there wasn't anything worthwhile in the shed. But she looked around anyways and saw a pile of boxes covering what looked to be a trap door. She slowly backed away from the stranger keeping her eyes on him as she moved towards the boxes. Once she had reached them she spoke a little louder "Come help me look in and move these boxes." She tried to make her voice steady and confident.

[Dragontw]

Matthew looked over towards her and moved to her carefully. "Boxes you say?" He would start grabbing boxes and moved them to the side and then he would start opening them to see if there way anything useful in it. "So uh.. How have you been surviving through all of this? I imagine you had some rough times out here as well?" He was trying to my some sort of conversation to break this tension between them. The boxes themselves had some stuff in them, not really food or water in his but, old tools, tape and other supplies like that.

Alya||22||Single||Healer

Ayla was almost grateful for someone to talk to, it got pretty lonely when you were on your own for a while. And most people you met weren't trying to make polite conversation like this guy. Ayla had casually shrugged at his question about surviving before answering "Honestly? I'm not sure. In the beginning, it was a lot harder because everyone was fighting for their basic needs and whatnot, but once people started ya know, dying, it became a lot easier to find places to hide, or supplies that someone had dropped." She was using her knife to cut open the boxes. Most of her boxes had paper and pens. In the box on the bottom of her stack she found an old, stained, but all in once piece blanket, as well as some bandages, and even better a solar-powered lantern. Once she moved her last box she saw that her assumption was correct in that the boxes were covering a trapdoor of some kind. "Help me get this open, maybe it's a bunker or at least a place with more supplies."

[Dragontw]

Matthew nodded listening to her. "Yea I feel that. Certainly a lot less chaos in a way now." He wasn't sure if that was a good or bad thing because that meant the people had to die to be more peaceful now. He moved over towards her and was curious that she had found a trapdoor and started to pull on it to try to open it up. After some struggling and help from Ayla they would manage to open it and look inside. "I wonder what is inside. Do you think its a bunker? I wonder how helpful they were when the explosions had happened."

Ayla looked into the dark hole before shrugging. "I have no idea what's down there, for all we know it could be nothing. Then again, what do we have to lose?" She followed the light of the flashlight and located a ladder. Before she started climbing down Alya looked at the stranger, "By the way, my name is Ayla." She turned and slowly climbed down, careful where she placed her foot in case a rung was missing or had rusted away.

[Dragontw]

Matthew waited and pointed the flashlight to help her out as she started to climb down the hole. "My name is Matthew. Nice to meet you Ayla." Once she was down there he would start to climb down carefully himself. Whatever this all was it was certainly interesting to say for sure. He just had hoped it was even worth it to begin with. He had started to shine his flashlight around while he was climbing down the ladder to sort of see the surroundings.

Ayla||22||Single||Healer

"Nice to meet you Matthew." Ayla reached the bottom of the ladder and stepped onto the solid ground beneath her. She stepped to the side to allow Matthew a place to stand once he reached the bottom. While waiting she brushed her hands off on her pants before doing a quick scan of the area around her. Once her eyes began to adjust she did see that they were in an enclosed room of some kind. It was either part of the sewer system or a bunker, but she needed Matthew's flashlight to be sure.

[Dragontw]

Matthew kept climbing down. Once he got to the ground he flashed his light around and started to walk around. There had seemed to doors in this place they were in. Rooms he assumed? What was this place..."Hello?" He thought he throw that out. Place was too dark for people to stay here tho. Maybe there was a generator somewhere. He started to search around for a way to get more light. Once he had gotten near a light bulb on the ceiling it flickered on. Leaving Matthew really confused.

Ayla||22||Single||Healer

Hearing the light flicker Ayla turned towards Matthew. "Did you find a switch?" She asked while following behind him since he was the one with the light. She looked around and saw that they were in a concrete tunnel of some kind, and there were a few doors lining either side of them. Most of them didn't have labels or lights. Ayla had almost missed it when she saw the door On the left-hand side that had a triangle with a lightning bolt inside of it. "Hey! I think I found something." She started walking towards the door.

[Dragontw]

Matthew looked up at the light and over towards her. "I did not. I am not sure why this light is on if I am honest." He scratches his head confused. He had followed her towards the door she was walking towards. "What did you find here? Supplies maybe?" This place had seemed rather empty so far and we wasn't sure what could be down here or why this was even built. Maybe this is what bunkers looked like. "Maybe this is going to be power for this place and we can see what this place has."
