My body betrays me as it continues to inflict pain on me until I feed myself. I'm so damn hungry. Where are the hunters dammit?! They haven't been back in nearly three days. The settlement's food supply is wearying thinner and thinner with each passing week. Surly it won't last another month luckily its only the 3rd, as we are fed a single bowl of whatever the hunters can scavenge and mix into a stew twice a day. Yet I remain grateful I have something to eat everyday and whatever liquid that is drinkable. I suppose this isn't the best way to start off this journal or autobiography or whatever, but I am the author and I shall write as I choose. Not anymore tonight however my watch shift is over and I need sleep.

Done with my normal morning duties, and was just informed that there will not be any lunch today. Seemingly this feels like the best time to write...anything to get my mind off the hunger.
She was beautiful. The type of dangerous beautiful that could have feeling that you could be no closer to heaven when you were next to her, and the deepest pit of hell when she was gone. With blond hair that felt like silk when you ran your fingers through it and skin was soft and pure. Her body was fit energetic and athletic she was up for anything. Most of my intellectual and deepest conversions was with her. We would discuss philosophy, ideology, and self morality for hours on end. Never was there a dull moment with her. With Sophia. She... she is dead now been dead for a little over three years at the age of 16. Without warning or a moment to come to turns with her ultimate mortality she just simply died. Sophia was one of the first to be killed.
To be honest living in the Aftermath for nearly a year I envy the dead. Once again this might not be the most formal introduction, but it is mine and no one can take that away.

You wanna know whats going on huh? The big picture the main concept, right? Well you are still reading so I can only assume you do. Humanity is in a new era dubbed by my community as " The Aftermath". In 2019 America was stuck with another major terrorist attack we were led to believe that no WMD could not hit the nation's soil. We were deceived. The blast grounded Washington D. C.. Seeing America in ruins and nearly 3/4 the nations military in the middle east our countries' enemies saw the perfect opportunity. In 2020 a coalition of governments, that included super-powers such as Russia and North Korea, declare war on the U.S. We fought boldly but strode no chance our defeat was eminent, yet our surrender was a million miles away.
Running out of time will continue the history lesson later tonight.
