It had been a little over two months since Zane and the girls had fled from the Safe Zone in Reno. During this time, things had changed drastically. The revolution which brought down the Mayor from the old world and his corrupt regime was replaced with complete and total anarchy.
Which, if anyone has ever read a history book, knows is about the worst thing that could happen. In fact, it was this fact that allowed Zane to gun down two people in broad daylight and escape without any repercussions.
Nobody knew who killed Zane's mother and her boyfriend, hell nobody really cared for anyone but themselves. If not for the fact that the bodies would have rotted and spread disease, nobody would have even bothered disposing of them.
