Angela walks out of the plane, following Zinda. She was very nice and Angela just hoped that other people would be as friendly

"So, this is the farm." Zinda is all cheer and good mood, maybe overly so -- trying to cheer the girl up a little. "Look out for Mel. I don't think I mentioned,but she's in charge -- you can't miss her. Short, multicoloured hair, scar on her upper lip, usually she's with her twins."

Angela nods, trying to relax her face from its tense lines. It's not working very well.

"There are kids here too?"

[lastblackhawk]

"Yup. Bridget, she's little, and Mel's girls are Hana and Louise, and Toby who cooks a lot. Few others, too. We all look after them."

"That's good." She tries to breathe through the anxiety she feels. "Okay," she says softly. If little kids could deal, so could she.

"So...what should I do first?" She just needs direction for a little bit, while she gets her bearings.

Zinda thinks about that for a moment. "Hmmmm... Go claim a bed, I'd say. That there is the bunker, it's not full yet. Anywhere that hasn't got people's stuff all over it is pretty much free. Check with the others if you're worried.

"The kitchen's a good place to meet people. Steph and Claire sometimes have big dinners for the whole farm, and they're both about your age, so you should catch up with them.

"Otherwise -- just wander, I guess? See if you can find Mel, though, she's good people. I gotta fly, Skip's just buzzed me -- needs a lift somewhere."

"Okay. Thanks, Zinda. For everything."

She can do this. She's faced down lots of things before. She'll be okay.

Zinda gives her a swift hug. "I'm always around, okay? Well -- mostly. Within reach, anyway. Just ask around if you need me and someone'll call."

[angela_edmunds]

"Okay," she says, hugging back. She really did need a hug from someone.

"I'll keep that in mind. Thanks again."
