Locating Donna was as difficult as Donald expected it to be. Without any clues for them to work with, they found themselves wandering aimlessly. They made sure to avoid anyone they didn't recognize, which didn't mean much for Donald since he basically didn't know anyone. Well, he did know some people from the three groups he was registered for, but that didn't mean he was going to greet them.Now that his family was with him, he wasn't going to risk dragging them into something that could get them hurt or killed. It was best to completely avoid them unless his family greeted them first. If it was someone Elizabeth recognized and he didn't know, he wasn't going to let her catch their attention and possibly stab them in the back.Donald would stab her first in that case. It was undoubtedly cold hearted, but he couldn't afford to be weak. As the oldest son, he needed to protect his family no matter what. Of course, he would make sure his sister didn't see it if it ever came down to it. S

Taking a moment to catch his breath, Donald could hear Amanda screaming in his ears, "Monster. Murderer. How could you?"It wasn't his fault. It was either him or them. If they hadn't come at him with the intent to hurt him, then none of this would have happened. They could have gone their separate ways, and he wouldn't have to kill them, but now it was too late. He now had four more bodies to add to his kill count. The thought churned his stomach as he retched again.Donald felt absolutely horrible. There was no relief or delight in killing four men on his own. He only felt a sense of weariness and resignation. They might also have had loved ones waiting for them, but he had killed them to save himself. He didn't regret choosing himself and the safety of his family. However, he wasn't sure if he could return back to normal once everything was over.Dropping to the ground, he kept his eyes away from the carnage as he tried to calm down his rapidly beating heart. He had to calm down be

Donald eventually located Donna hiding in the closet, but he wasn't sure if he should be relieved or pained at the sight of her. She was missing an arm, and one of her eyes was closed, with a large scar and blood covering it. He couldn't tell how deep the cut was or if she had lost the eye, but with the lack of proper medical care in their current situation, she would lose it anyway.At the sight of him, she barked a laugh. "I didn't expect to see you here of all places. Where's Elizabeth? I'm sure she's here with you looking for me."Keeping his voice calm, he asked, "What makes you so sure I was searching for you?""Well, I doubt anyone would purposely go through a house that looks trashed to look for supplies," she dryly said.Donna had a point. It would be weird if anyone came to the place and thought that there might be anything valuable left. The only reason why they had even approached the house was because they suspected that Donna was there, which she apparently was. Studying

Donna could honestly say she wasn't impressed. It wasn't because she was ungrateful that Donald was trying to save her life. They weren't exactly close, so any reason to save her would have to either be for Elizabeth's sake or for some other reason. Honestly, she wasn't in any position to refuse his "generosity" anyway, so she could only put up a token fight.However, she was seriously debating if he was only going through the motions of trying to save her when he asked her to use her power so they could get in close. His plan had some merit, as her power would keep anyone from noticing their presence. They could move freely without anyone noticing them. The problem was that it included his side as well.They wouldn't notice them, which meant they wouldn't think to avoid hitting them. Her power didn't exactly make them immune to attacks. It could only hide them from view, and it wasn't that strong to begin with. Since he would be weighed down by her, it would only make things worse, b

Donald felt that something was off with the way his father kept looking at Donna. Did they have a history with each other? He doubted it since his father hadn't recognized Elizabeth. From what he knew, the two women would rarely leave each other's side unless it was necessary. There had to be another reason why his father was acting this way.Was it perhaps something to do with his healing power? Maybe it was because his father was hesitant to try. He did say that he might not be able to heal her. It probably bothered his father that he couldn't do more to help. Of course, he wouldn't blame his father for failing. At least they could say they tried, as long as his father attempted to heal her.Suddenly, his father asked Donna, "What's your relationship with my son?"It took a few moments for Donald to process what he was hearing, and when he did, he exploded. "Dad!"To add insult to injury, his father just shushed him without looking away from Donna, who had a strange expression. As t
