After depleting the fallout shelter of resources, the three decided to head on out onto the open road in search for something better. For weeks now they had wandered about, with little success in finding anything of worth. The sun was standing high on the sky as they walked through the dense woods of Louisiana, its rays lit up the area around them. A chill breeze swept across the land, and the murky swamp waters beside their path hid a lot of danger that they dared not to approach. Sticking together, they watched each other`s back and took out the casual threats whenever it got to close. Jason was wearing his usual attire, which by now was dirty and ragged. He carried a large backpack that carried all sorts of things, most which had been taken from the shelter.
As they ventured further, it became apparent that they were getting close to a clearing, and soon enough they did. Right in front of them they could see an old forgotten cabin, that no doubt hadn`t been used in a very long time. Outside there was a bench situated up against the wall, and some wooden structure that had been used for fish to dry on. If they were lucky they could possible hole up there for the night, as in the horizon they could clearly see dark clouds gather.
With a nod to the girls, he gave them the signal to approach as a team. It was something they had rehearsed over the course of three years they had spent together, and by now they each had a role to play. Cautiously he took a few steps forward toward the door, letting the girls follow and guard his rear. He knocked and waited for a response, wondering if anybody inside would react to the sound. When nothing happened he checked if it was possible to open, which it unfortunately wasn`t. "Damn, looks like we gotta find another way in." He said in a low whisper and started looking around for an opening.
