Her mind was racing, heart pounding as her feet slammed against the dry ground that had a light coating of brown ash atop it while more fell down around her. Personally, she hated the Ashfall, but then again she didn't really know anyone who liked it, and hastily brushed off any that fell in her matted brown hair for fear that the stories of mutation or burns from the ash were true.<br/>Roxy's eyes were lit with many things, fear, excitement, adrenaline, just to name a few. The whole situation was funny really, so she couldn't help but laugh a little. A group of bandits had stolen some stuff from her a few weeks back, so she followed them around until she was confident she could steal back what they had taken without being caught. She was wrong. They had caught her making her exit, wanted the stuff back, and had been chasing her.<br/>She wasn't quite sure what would happen to her if they caught up, rape, torture, execution, exposure to nuclear waste for some weird experiment, but she didn't really want to find out, so she ran like her life depended on it, which was possible. Casting her gaze up for a moment to scan the horizon for a place to hide she spotted a building not too far away and a little bit to her left. Roxy picked up speed at this glimmer of hope, begging the world to be on her side and let the people there be more friendly than the ones behind her. The bandits were at least 15 minutes behind her but she didn't want to risk anything.<br/>Coming up to the building she started banging against the door as hard as she possibly could, if no one opened up soon she was just going to fling it open and let herself in, but seeing a flicker of movement through a window that was something she'd rather not do.
