How It All Goes Down
Pressia (Blood)
- The chapter opens with Pressia running over to her mother; her mother is still alive, but suffering.
- Pressia grabs a gun and shoots her. Now think back to how she couldn't shoot the suffering cripple during The Game. Things have changed.
- The whole group runs down the hill and to the car. Sad thoughts about her mother rush through Pressia's head, but we'll stay away from the sad stuff for now.
- They decide to make their way to the farmhouse, but on their way the Special Forces solider who got away comes back and attacks.
- The soldier grabs Bradwell from the car. Pressia can't bear to have Bradwell die too.
- After fighting out on the plains, El Capitan is able to steer the car back to the fight, and Pressia shoots the solider.
- Bradwell gets back in the car as the soldier is swallowed by the earth.
- Pressia makes sure to tell Bradwell not to die. Again, smooth.
- They make their way to the farmland, and Pressia catches sight of a small flag hanging out of a window—a blood-red stripe is down the middle, just like the red stripe on the card Ingership's wife gave her.
