Entry #14

March 8 9:30 PM

--------

For the last few days we have set up a small trading post on the outside of our base, we trade anything from food to weapons.

We have made a few coins from the wondering people and traded some goods instead of coins. We also set up a small information center where people can sell information for a small reward. We also gained two new people in the hospital.

Apparently news of me making guys who tried to harass the girls run away in fear has spread and most the women in the area see this a haven for them; so the two new people... who are also girls.

Karina- A geeky girl who likes to keep to herself as much as she can, she is decently smart but there is no other defining features about her.

Tina- A kid who came over thinking she would be safe. She told us her story and after that the others doted on her non-stop. She said her and her mother were attacked by a group of men and her mother forced her to run.

She doesn't know what happened to her because she promised her mother not to look back. We made a promise to her to go find her mom soon. We gave her a room, and left her with Lexa (I'm worried about Tina- she's left alone with Lexa).

After getting her settled we went back to our jobs and later that night planned what will happen next.

"Alright anyone have any suggestions about how to move forward?" I asked the girls in front of us.

Alice was the first to raise her hand, " I say let's find Tina's mom then go see if this 'laboratory' is a real thing, this is the best I way we can survive with the limited strength we have at this point in time."

"Anyone else have any other suggestions?"

"We agree to finding Tina's mom. but as for the 'laboratory' we can't for real say it is the best option." Lizabeth & Lesly both said at the same time (it's one of the weird things they do as twins).

The others look at each other and back at me, " the rest of us agree with what they said." This time they all said it at once.

'I'm surronded by freaks, who do they communicate like that.'

"No more suggestions? Ok it is decided we will find Tina's mom then go find this 'laboratory' and try our luck. Anyone want to stay and look after the base?"

No one reaised their hand this time.

"Alice, Karina, and Stephanie will stay and look after the base then, they are better fit for it."

After some protest from Stephanie I managed to convince her to stay with Alice. Though one of her arguments was that Alice was boring, which really ticked her off. The look in her eye looked like a predator eyeing it's pray.
