  Summary

  Surviving an apocalypse for the last 11 years has taught you three important lessons:
  - Always check your surroundings.
  - Use ammo sparingly.
  - Do not trust easily. Not even your own circle.

  Guess that third lesson doesn’t apply when it comes to two rugged Texan men, who save your life after a band of hunters ambushed your group.

  Too bad one of them is such an asshole.
