Roxanne walked up the weedy, broken pavements, kicking at plants which had the audacity to pop up in the gaps of the slabs. She sighed - The world was a very depressing place today - Already, the last vestiges of human society were disintegrating, and already, nature was reclaiming her planet. Not that Roxanne blamed nature for reclaiming it, after all, it had been nature's to begin with.
Not looking where she was... Stomping, Roxanne's foot came into painful contact with a jutting out piece of concrete. The wild-haired girl swore, balancing on one leg, and cradling her injured foot in her hand awhile. Stupid ground!
Eventually, the pain went off, and Roxanne gingerly put her foot down again, then, when no pain reappeared, she continued walking.
After a while, she came to where she wanted to be - The park, a grassy expanse of weeds now, but once, her favorite place to come. She approached the fountain in the center of the park, almost reverently, as if it were some holy artifact.
"Nice to see you again..." She muttered, leaning on the edge of the fountain, and leaning over to stare solemnly at the, surprisingly, clear water.
