Static, that is all there was.<br/><br/>My legs were getting tired, and with no shelter from the sun nearby, I had to keep walking. The ground has started to incline now, making it that much harder to walk. I took out a bottle of water from my back and took a few small sips to keep myself hydrated - this was going to be a long day.<br/><br/>"Hello? Can anyone hear me?" I once again directed into the radio, there was a slight noise a few seconds later but I could not make it out - probably just my brain playing tricks on me.<br/><br/>I pulled out a map I had brought with me and plotted my direction: I had to go over these mountains then it should be relatively level from there. The east coast is probably teeming with radiation at the moment so I should get as far away from it as possible, for that though, I need a vehicle, and I think I have found one about a mile ahead.
