Before the outbreak you used to be a police officer. You used to ride a motorcycle and stop people for passing a red light or speeding. It used to be so simple. But after outbreak it didn't matter. Yoou met Joel and Tommy at a QZ a month after outbreak and stayed with Joel afterwards.
After Tess, you promised to stay together and take Ellie to the fireflies. And after the hospital and the fireflies, you too lied to her about it. It didn't feel right, but you knew why Joel did it. So you felt compelled to somehow make it up to Ellie.
"You turn it on like this..." You explained to a very excited and curious Ellie.
In the last group that came into Jackson, they left a bunch of old metal parts and junk. Among it, was an old motorcycle. It didn't work. It was missing parts and obviously gas. But that didn't stop you from trading one of your old guns for it.
Joel hadn't seen you take it to the garage. He didn't even know you knew how to ride a bike. Not until he saw Ellie on top of it, her feet barely touching the ground as You taught her about the handles.
"Where did you get that thing?" Joel asked, hand on his hip as he looked between the two of you.
