[QUOTE="Graybeard, post: 6059248, member: 21705"] [SIZE=3][COLOR="#00FF00"]Kyle[/COLOR][/SIZE] Kyle eventually found his girlfriend Melissa. Instead of hanging around the devastated area, the young lovers stopped for a quick bite at a local pizza joint before going for a long walk in the park. Although the walk was enjoyable, Kyle's mind was distracted. He kept thinking about the events of the day, the strange storm, the villains, and what had happened to him and the others.
