Day 263 - 10:21 AM - Dump Site, Barangay Banugao, Municipality of Infanta, Province of Quezon
Seeing Mark do something new and unexpected, it was no surprise that both Alana, especially the childish Karlene, felt a bit of disappointment and jealousy. However, it was not like those emotions stemmed from ill will towards Mark. Mark getting stronger as time passed by was nothing new. It was just that since the two were stuck here in Infanta to help the settlement, they had fewer opportunities to find ways to become stronger.
Nonetheless, staying here was their decision. It was to help Karlene's father and the people they had spent time with since this worldwide chaos started. And it was already proven to be a good decision since, during their stay, the Infanta Settlement faced many situations where many lives were at stake. More soldiers and volunteers could have died if not for the two being present. While they could not prevent all deaths, it was clearly lessened considerably.
