[ WP ] You believe you are one of the last people alive on earth after an apocalypse . You have taken refuge in a building with a radio tower and have been broadcasting daily , imploring any survivors to come to you , and just talking . Your supplies have run out , and you broadcast one last time .

`` This is Rocking Rob coming to you from the huge antennae, This next one goes out to all the lovers!'' The radio in the small bus crackles to life. The driver, Pablo, immediately it up. They had been combing the dessert looking for this damn guy all week. 
 
 After the bombs dropped, about a week later actually, it began to snow. The snow was black and fell unevenly. It was impossible to distinguish road from earth, so the small dirt road winding away from the interstate was invisible to the small rescue party. 
 
 `` Damn it, Sean! Shut UP back there. We do n't need your negativity!'' 
 
 `` Listen, Pablo: this dude's dead. There's no point anymore. Just listen to his voice. Weak and quiet. We've gone through half the gas we picked up in Reno and almost all of the food we brought. It's a waste!'' 
 
 `` Sean, calm down.'' A soft hand caressed his face and turned it to meet its owner. `` We decided we did n't want one person to have all the power at the start of this adventure, did n't we? That's what ended the world. That sure as hell wo n't be what ends us.'' 
 
 `` Carla, that's different. I'm trying to get you guys to see reason. You're trying to save everyone when we clearly ca n't.'' 
 
 `` Wait! Shhh!'' Pablo turned the radio up loud, but only static could be heard. Soon, a feeble voice wimpered over the radio. `` Please...'' A thud was heard, followed by quiet sobs. 
 
 `` Damn it, he's dying! We got ta find him now'' 
 
 `` This is all the more reason to leave him! Even if we DO find him, could we help him at this point!?'' 
 
 `` EVERYONE SHUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTHS!'' Carla thundered. The other two silenced themselves hurriedly. `` We'll spend one more day looking for him. Sean, you can drive for now. Pablo? Down a bottle of water. I am going to sleep. Do n't make any sharp turns and keep that radio on. 
 
 The survivors continued to search in silence. The radio sobs got quieter and weaker. But they searched on.
