The days began to pass by. While Mickey and Joy worried for the future and Chris and River excitedly planned their hopes for the rest of their lives, while Alex was frequently absent as he spent more and more time at his new girlfriend's place, and Bess and Sage were making plans for a future together in Wickstall without guns and zombies and barriers, something unexpected happened. A new friendship sparked up, a friendship that would have great significance on future events in Wickstall...

Charlie had called on Joy, and brought Imp with him, who ran off chattering to run along the curtain pole in the front room where he met Truffle, and the two of them started to chatter together. While the creatures darted about in the front room, Charlie told Joy he had been to the bar. It was intact, and the committee was only too happy to allow him to open the place up again with limited alcohol stocks, because, he added, before the outbreak everyone in Wickstall had known him, in fact they knew him better than they had known Bradley, simply because he owned and worked in the most popular bar in town. He had mentioned he wanted new drapes for the windows, and Joy had suggested he call on Carol who owned the fabric store. Carol had taken Charlie to the shop and he had chosen the fabric. Three days later, while Carol was working a Saturday shift at the medical centre, Carla took a drive over to the bar to drop off the curtains, and she took Archie with her...

“Be a good boy and don't touch anything!” she told Archie as she knocked on the door that said Closed, then gave it a push and it swung open.

She walked into a large room with light décor and mirrors behind a curved bar. The theme was all pale walls and chrome and the place was spotless, the mirrors were shining, the bar was recently cleaned. Archie ran across the carpet to the other end of the room, where he patted the padded seating.

“Soft!” he said, and toddled off to pat other seats.

Carla set the folded curtains down on a table, they would go along the wall that faced the street, they were black would look perfect in this place. The fruit machine was switched on, the pinball machine was lit up. The TV stood dark, as all TVs had since the outbreak. Life was not quite back to normal yet. She looked about the empty room.

“Hello?” she called out.

Charlie came out from a room at the back of the bar. And as the glamorous woman who looked nothing like the scientist she was met the man in the tweed suit who looked more like an ageing punk rocker than the husband of the late Lord Featherstone, they looked at each other and smiled.

“Is Charlie Featherstone about?” she asked.

“I most certainly am, princess!” he said warmly, and she indicated to the curtains on the bar.

“Carol asked me to bring them over- she's working today.
