Artist's Comments

A low guttural growl tore through the darkness. It was a sound that only one creature could make. Of all the places to come across one too. Jessie scooched up her makeshift bed to were the small light sat and flicked it on.
He was standing so close! Jessie nearly screamed, but held it in when she realized who it was.

"Jake..." She said cautiously. He reached forward, maybe to touch her face like he did only months ago, but spasm'd and had to pull back. His eyes were filled with cataracts, and she was surprised he could still see her, recognize her. In fact Jessie was almost surprised that she could recognize him. To the untrained eye he looked just like any other feral, but to her, he was Jake. Good old Jake.

He tried to reach her one more time, but something in him must have snapped. He grabbed hold of her neck instead with unrestrained strength. Jessie tried to get him off but he had her with both arms now. She couldn't breathe. He spasm again, this time with her in his grasps. Jessie's world was getting fuzzy. With out giving it a thought Jessie grabbed her gun and shot him point blank in the head.

Jake's grip loosened immediately, as his withered frame crumpled to the ground in a bloody heap. Jessie gasped for air, holding her bruised throat with one hand and wiping ghoul-brain off of her face with the other, still quite in shock. She couldn't see anything for a few moments, and her ears rang painfully from the gunshot being so close. When she was able to breathe and see again she stood up shakily and looked down at him. His face was still in tact. So little time ago, she'd stared into those eyes, caressed that face, laughed with him, but...

"I don't know you any more." Jessie spoke through sobs. She'd cried for Jake already, when he went feral, that day he'd died to her. Now this body at her feet was nothing but the empty shell of a memory.

He was probably still the only feral who got a proper burial.

Meeting an old ghoul friend can be hard sometimes

Hours: prolly 15-25 I can't remember XD
Crit: Hmm, if you feel like it. Just know I rushed the background and it is just an 'in between picture'. I won't be going back to fix it!
