Gustavus laughed. What a fool this man was. He clearly had no education in politics or the world and since he carried a sword he assumed that he must have a mental disorder, because seriously who the hell has a sword these days? "Axel, you fool, why do you think dictatorships have always came back? Yes it can be terrible, but why do you think time after time they crop up? Because the people know deep down that it is, one of, the most effective ways to survive. The Romans and Greeks had democracy's and republics but they fell to tyranny, and yes i will admit that it soon became corrupt but it ensured the survival, until they were conquered and went bankrupt anyways..."

Candi quickly finished the painting and went inside to give it to Liz. Walking towards the other entrance she saw Gustavus talking to Axel. Gustavus looked like he was angry. She slowly diverted around them and went in through the main entrance and smiled, "For you, Liz." she said and held out the painted bark.

Liz beamed. No one had given her a gift in years. She studied the bark carefully. The girl definitely talent. "It is a lovely piece of art. I will have to find a special place in my office to put it."

Candi smiled from ear to ear, she was glad to make Liz happy, "Whenever you get stressed just think of the clouds blowing over the open sea," Candi said wistfully, closing her eyes and imagining it herself

"If I do that I will never get anything done." LIz replies with a laugh. It seemed all life had to offer since the disaster was stress. She hadn't even stepped foot in the office she had mentioned. She wanted to be available for new arrivals. Liz set the beautiful piece of art beside her and returned to her writing. She had a whole anther page to write. Then she had to go find laminate or something to protect the paper.

"Really, can I do something? You need to relax." Candi said and put a hand on her back. Candi worried for her, she literally held the weight of the world on her shoulders.

"I have to do this. Like I told Gustavus, it is better if the laws are written in my hand. Then I need to find a way to protect the papers and then hang them. There are still rooms that need to be tended to and an innovatory list of what is in the warehouse. Hundreds of other things . You promised to paint a couple of rooms. You should go get started." Liz explained.

"Yeah, except I don't know what people want personally. I guess I'll just do scenery for now." she said and started walking to go paint some rooms. She got a flashback of life before the catastrophe, she closed her eyes and saw her sister painting next to her. She let out a small gasp and a tear ran down her face, she quickly composed herself, but stood still, closing her eyes trying to cling to the moment.

"....and that Axel is why I must do what I must!" Gustavus had had enough of Axel so he stormed out, saw Candi and Liz gave them the death stare then left going to his room.

Marco woke up against the tree. Must have dozed off He started to go to the warehouse, and he saw Gustavus storming out of the warehouse. He walked in, and saw Liz, Candi, and a newcomer. He noticed that there was cereal on the table, so he sat down and picked at it.

In the horizon stood a figure; with binoculars draped over his eyes. A chilling chuckle emanated from him. He wore a black coat; it's edges with white fur, he wore black jeans and black converse. He was quite pale, his visage was quite diverse; dangerous, dark...yet manipulative and innocent at some stages. He began making his way to the warehouse, he was going to end lives to begin his reign of terror. With his throwing knives all suspended up his sleeves, he built quite a useful mechanism that would allow the knives to come down his sleeves without hurting him; swift and quite smart. He put on his innocent look; blending in with every other imbecile in this warehouse. He was dashing, smart and quite handsome; he could have been a great asset to them, despite the fact that he had underwent an infamous reputation. It was quite possible that if he exposed his name that others would not trust him and his silent killings would be drawn to a halt; so Izaya Orihara took the name Yata Phenocious as his alter ego. Things were going to become so much fun at this point.

After eating, Marco realized that he had forgot his weapon back at the tree where he fell asleep. "I have to get my weapon. I'll be right back" he said, as went outside of the warehouse. It took him a few moments to remember which tree he fell asleep at, but he managed to find his bow. He noticed someone in the distance. He was just standing there. It gave Marco a feeling of uneasiness, but he ignored it and went back inside the warehouse.

Caoro went outside and looked around, she saw the knew man and drew her bow. "Come down please!" She yelled, she notched and arrow and raised her bow slightly.

He walked closer to the female and raised his hand; he acted scared and put on an innocent face. '' Help! Help! Please..please help me...'' He stopped in front of her and pushed aside her bow. At that point, he dropped his wrist a little further, allowing one throwing knife to slide down and into his palm; it was unseen since his jacket sleeve covered the knife and his whole hand. '' Please help me!''

He raised his hand swiftly and tossed the knife at her stomach, and proceeded to walk on into the house. He was at such a close range to her that she'd need to be super human to withstand such an attack. '' Help!, oh god please no! Someone stabbed that girl!'' He played on, it was believable that it was another. '' She was just trying to help me, she was just trying to..help me..'' He acted as though he was crying.

The knife launched into Caoro's stomach and she screamed in pain, she fell to the ground and pulled out the knife. Please not to deep. She prayed and, searched for her bow. When she found it she picked it up and notched it, it took most of her strength to pull back the bow and she shot him in the knee to disable him, she started crawling backwards. She notched her bow again and pulled it back she had her back against a small tree. She must of had internal bleeding, something was wrong with her she knew for sure.

Marco heard someone saying that someone had knifed Caoro. He took out his bow and went outside the side door. He saw her propped up against a tree, and was bleeding quite badly. He immediately ran over to her. He saw someone with an arrow in his knee, which was probably the person that stabbed her. Though, first, he carried her into the warehouse.

Caoro knew she was either going to die or pass out in a few minutes. "That bastard." She said as if she had a sudden epiphany, when the man picked her up she smiled. "Thanks dude." She whispered and as they passed the man on the ground she chuckled. "I shot him." She said proudly.

Candi saw the new boy enter and smiled, "Hi, I"m Candi, you are?" She wiped away her single tear from the flashback previously and smiled, hoping she could help the new arrival adjust. She swept her brown hair out of her face and tucked it behind her ear. Her eyes still slightly sad, but she smiled

Liz looked up as Macro entered carrying Caoro. She rushed to his side. "What on earth happened? We need to get her into the office." Liz hoped they head the supplies they needed. She wished they had a fully trained doctor. She would do what she could. Liz just hoped it was enough.

Caoro smiled up at Liz. "Hello I shot a man that stabbed me isn't it marvelous?" She giggled a little bit. "Shouldn't I be in shock or something? Am I in shock?" She raised her hand up and looked at it.
