ATA-How it Happened
It was 2017. The Moon suddenly left it's orbit, and the Earth was a dark cold place. Millions caught disease from the cold and darkness, many became crazy and committed suicide, and many were killed by other things. Shadows. Shadows were wiped out when the Moon first appeared, after a meteor struck Earth. The gravitational pull of the moon kept them away. Though, as the moon suddenly disappeared from the orbit, the shadows once again appeared, and killed off most of the disease survivors. Now, only about 8,000 people live in the world, and there is a popular group of rebel survivors in New York City. These survivors are the closest in the world to the Shadow Fortress, and are the only ones that can save the human race from becoming completely extinct.

Shihong's at your doorstep.
A little girl sat on the corner of the street, a few buildings away a car was up in flames. Her tears were strained with her sobbing, which could be heard all down the lane.

Marti's head poked up from behind a tree. "Hey you! Little girl." She said, jogging up. "What's wrong?"

Reuben walked out, observing from the Wal-Mart. He hadn't seen anyone younger than fourteen. He was surprised that the girl was alive.

She looked at Marti and kept on crying, "I want my mommy!"

Marti instantly felt bad for the little girl. She picked her up, and placed her on one hip. "I'm sorry, little girl. I want my Mommy too." She shrugged. "But our Mommies are busy right now, so we have to make do with each other."

Re: Shihong's at your doorstep.
Shihong clutched the small rabbit and cried into her shoulder, her armed and knees skinned from being pushed out of the car. "No! I want her right now! Where is she?"

"Um, she got on a plane, and flew into the clouds. But she told me to tell you that she would be back soon, and she'd bring you something special." Marti smiled to Shihong.

"I don't want her to go." Shihong sniffled and looked up at Marti, grabbing her face.

Marti frowned. She had a soft spot for children. "Well, even Mommies have to take a vacation. Don't worry, she'll be back." The red head said, thinking about how the poor Asian girl's mother, as well as hers, would never be back again.

Shihong sniffled again, hugging her bunny and looking at Reuben.

"Reuben! I think we have a new recruit." She smiled, walking over to him, Shihong still in her arm. "What's your name, little girl?" Marti asked with a small smile.

Reuben walked over and crouched by the girl. "We should get her into the Wal-Mart before anything..." he mused.

The youngster reached out at pet Reuben's hair. He was real too. "Shihong." she answered, starting to calm down.

Marti nodded, and started the walk towards Wal-Mart. "I'm Marti, and that's Reuben. Were gonna take care of you, okay?" She said, looking towards Reuben.

"Okay, Marti." Shihong looked up at her new friend with wide eyes. "...What's a Marti?"

Re: Shihong's at your doorstep.
"Oooh." Shihong mused, "And Reuben is a name too? It sounds like those squares with the colors on them..." she smiled through the tears.

Marti smiled. "Reuben is a name too." She answered, the group almost too the Wal-Mart. Her baseball bat slapped against her leg with a familiar thump.

Shihong stiffened when she saw the walmart. "It looks dark in there..." she whimpered.

"We have a fire going in there. Besides, there's a lot of people who will protect you." he explained with soft eyes.

"Okay..." Shihong yawned and fell asleep in Marti's arms. She had had a long day.

Marti smiled, and looked at Reuben. "She's so cute." She mouthed, trying not to wake Shihong.
