chapter four: chain
Chain was rummaging around between bent rebar and crumbling
concrete blocks, he had picked through the ruins before, and knew that the fire bombs from the historic explosions had left no radioactivity. He saw a sapling, a young tree in a twisted nest of rebar, it held it's yellowing leaflets high in the pale salute to the fading light. "What are you doing here little one?" bending, he gently dug his long nails into the dirt to pull the struggling plant. It's roots were stunted from the layer of poisonous ashes unique to such blast sites, but it had somehow rooted half in something under a pane of brown-stained glass. it had been twenty years. all that was left of most of the inital casualties were rusted out shells and sometimes bleached piles of bones.
