The sun crests over the broken buildings and shines directly into Jack's face and his tent, waking both Rebecca and Jack up.
*Yawn* Jack stretches as he slowly crawls out of his makeshift bed. As he opens the tent up, he sees Rebecca beautiful bare body, her voluptuous breasts dangle in the air, her round butt glistens with sweat as the sun light reflects off her skin as she locks eyes with Jack.
Jack stands stupefied, Rebecca face turns bright red, and she lets out a small eep sound which knocks sense back into Jack.
"Oh! I'm sorry!" Jack quickly closed the tent and turned around.
Rebecca quickly gets dressed and shouts out, "I'm finished."
Jack opens up the tent and sees Rebecca fully dressed from head to toe, black jeans the showoff her sexy hips and round butt, gray long-sleeved top tightly hugging her body which greatly emphasis her breasts, and work boots.
"So, how do I look?" Rebecca asks cutely.
Jack rubs the back of his head, "Um quite good." His face turns a little red, "I um am um a bit sorry for this morning incident."
"It-it's okay..." She says blushes.
A moment later Jack hears a notification from the system.

A smile appears on Jack's face, knowing he completed his first quest and also saved a lovely girl along the way.
Rebecca walks up to Jack's dazed self and taps him on his shoulder. This knocks Jack back into reality and sees a beauty staring at him.
"Um no rush or anything but what are we going to do?" She says in a soft tone.

Jack walks over to his footlocker and opens it up, "Well, first let's get some food in us, then we'll discuss our next move."
A few moments later Jack gets two cans out of his footlocker and sets up his small portable stove and pot. In a flash he starts cooking some Beefaroni.
They start eating and finish their morning meal pretty soon.
"I know it was much of a breakfast meal, but I don't exactly have much. So, starting today we are going food hunting." Jack says as he rinses off the pot and bowls with some water and puts them away in his footlocker.
Rebecca nods in agreement, "Any idea where we can start?"
Jack rubs the back of his for a minute then asks the system in his head, 'Is there any places a mile or two from our location that has some food supple?'
A few moments later a loud beep goes off in Jack's head.

Jack looks at his mini map and notices a yellow dot at the edge of his screen, a smile appears on his face.
"Yeah, I have an idea on where to go." Jack confidently says as he closes his footlocker and takes out his knife.
Realizing there is still some blood on it, Jack grabs a small washcloth hanging from his bed, and a small water bottle. He doses his knife and takes the cloth, wiping off all the blood from the blade. A moment later the knife is sparkling clean. He puts the knife back in its sheath and gets up.
"Alright, Rebecca, what would you say you're good at?"
Being put on the spot like that makes Rebecca blush.
"Um, I'm somewhat good at organizing, I was a house-keep before this all happened. I have also shot some guns before..." Her past starts reflecting behind her eyes as she goes on and on about how her dad had taken her hunting a few times when she was a teenager. And the shooting competitions she used to take part of. She talks about her survival skills she learned from her dad as well.
This news puts a smile on Jack's face, as he hears Rebecca's tale, he thinks to himself. 'Seems there is more to this girl than meets the eye. Thanks, system, for giving the motivation to save her.'
"And how to tie a knot, as well." Rebecca says with a triumphant smile.
"You're quite skilled, makes me wonder how those men got the jump on you."
"Well... to be honest they gave me false promises such as food and shelter. So, when I let my guard down, they took me out. Thank you for saving me from them." Rebecca says, giving Jack a sweet smile.
"You're welcome, I'm glad I made it in time." Jack rubs the back of his head. "Well, let's look through the store to find a weapon for you, I'd be a fool and you'd be a fool too if we left this place and you had no means of protection."
"Good idea." Rebecca nods in agreement with Jack.
They both head out of the tent and start searching throughout the store.
Rebecca went to once was the Outdoors section and Jack went to the once was the Sports section.
Both spent a few minutes going through the destroyed shelves and searching the area, but no luck.
"Damn it!" Jack thoughts bursts out. "There isn't anything..." Jack rubs the back of his head, "maybe the back of the store might have fucking something."
As he mutters to himself, Rebecca walks up to him, "Maybe we should see if the storehouse in the back has anything left."
Jack looks at her as if she was reading his mind. "Well, seems we both had the same thought." Jack laughs, "Let's go."
Rebecca and Jack venture to the back of the store where they store keeps all its back up wares.
Once inside, they are hit with a putrid smell of death, decay, and rot.
Jack quickly takes out two small rags and hands one to Rebecca.
He places it against his nose and mouth, gesturing to Rebecca to do the same.
She quickly complies and the two venture deeper into the storehouse.
As they walk down the empty aisles, they come across what could only be a eaten and bashed up corpse. Blood splattered all around the floor, with maggots clawing all around the body, flies swarming around it.
"At least we know where the smell is coming from..." Jack says as he turns toward Rebecca.
Rebecca quickly averts her gaze and starts walking in the opposite direction, while heaving.
Jack follows her, placing his hand on the small of her back, he says, "are you alright. Can you continue on?"
Rebecca slowly nods her head, "just need to quickly get away from that scene."
Jack nods in agreement, "Well, let's rush by and continue down."
Jack and Rebecca dash past the body, venturing further down.
As they continue down the aisles, something catches both their eyes.
"Oh, what's this?" Jack approaches and box that has some knives sitting in it.
Jack reaches down, picks one up and hands it to Rebecca. "Here."
Rebecca grabs the knife and examines it. "This is pretty knife, it's a Kabar." Her smile goes from ear to ear.
He reaches down and grabs the last one, he hands it to Rebecca, "A back up." He says with a smile.
"Thanks. Now just need something to hold these."
Jack points toward the door of the storehouse, "There are a few in the clothing department of the store, let's go there."
They quickly go past the decay corpse and exit the storehouse.
Walking into the clothing department, they find a slim belt for Rebecca.
She puts it on and slides the belt through the holsters.
"Looks good." Jack says giving her the thumbs up of approvement.
Rebecca returns his thumbs up with a smile, "Thank you."
"Now let's head to our destination!" Jack and Rebecca set out on their journey for food!
