    Hannah Billings, the last woman on earth, thought she was crazy when she heard banging and scraping coming from her pantry. There’s no way someone is rooting through my stuff. There’s no people around here for thousands of miles. She went to go double check anyway. When she nudged open the door of her storage room with her foot, she almost forgot www.onedoor.ccto bring the barrel of her gun up as well. There was a person in her food storage. A tall male, from what she could tell from the back, with sandy hair, similar to her own, who was busily stuffing several sacks full of her food. He turned slightly to...3o4one door

    The Last Two People on Earth

    Monday started out like any other normal day. I slapped my hand (hard) on the snooze button a few times too many, knowing with each slap that I was pushing the envelope on the amount of time it would take me to shower, get dressed, and do my hair and makeup, yet still get to work on time. By the fourth time the alarm buzzed incessantly, I muttered, “Ok, ok, I’m getting up now.”For good or for bad...I have this habit I can’t seem to break. I personify inanimate objects as if at some point they will actually be able to hold a meaningful conversation with me. In the meantime, I revel in saying th...3o4one door
