Summary: Ashton enjoys his first parent-free holiday
Ashton leaned back against a smooth rock, warmed by the summer sun. Sheep wandered in front of him, the occasional bleat wafting through the air as they grazed.
Maybe this life isn't so bad after all, he thought with a small smile. He was fourteen, and his parents had finally decided he was old enough to holiday away from them.
They'd sent him to a cousin in Holland. He would've preferred Blackpool, and to have his little sister there, but he'd warmed to it here. He even wanted some sheep, if only so he didn't have to mow the grass.

Summary: The devastation of the plague weighs heavily on Ashton. Can they find any good news in the ravages land?
Ashton stood on the hilltop, tears running freely down his blotched face. So much death, so much carnage. Why? Had he and Kim really started this plague, just by coming here?
The village was now burning; his ever smaller group of men trying to eradicate the plague without catching it themselves.
He turned away, unable to look anymore, only to see the trail they'd already walked. Many more lines of smoke drifted up into the sky, other contaminated villages.
"Found this one Sir, she's unaffected."
Ash smiled, finally some good news. If she wasn't infected by now she'd be immune.
