Season 1 Episode 2: "Raiders"

The day after Episode 1, Amari wakes up in the Daonna Gang Hunter camp, to find a strange man in a hazmat suit towering over her while aiming a gun at her head. Amari quickly begs for mercy by lying to him, stating she was human and the camp where she "lived" was attacked. The man believes Amari and helps her to her feet. He introduces himself as Jaxson and mentions he is human, thus the Hazmat suit. Amari explains that she needs to leave to find her friend, and the two prepare to go their separate ways. However, she notices a cut on Jaxson's suit and offers to stitch it up as she is concerned. They're interrupted with loud guns shots coming from a group of NEXUS guards heading in their direction. The two flee the camp together.

Meanwhile, Ellie returns back to the base with Leo, to realise Amari had not escaped the camp. They decide to go back for Amari, but when they return to the camp, they find the NEXUS guards stationed at the area. Ellie still has hope that Amari is alive, and travels to the closest abandoned city with Leo in search for her.

Jaxson and Amari find an abandoned gas station Amari stitches up Jaxson's cut in his suit, before deciding to leave him in search for Ellie. Despite Amari's attempts to get rid of Jaxson, he offers to help find Ellie and she finally gives in. They decide to rest at the gas station till morning as night was approaching quickly.

Ellie and Leo reach the city before nightfall and find a nice cosy apartment in an abandoned apartment block. Leo and Ellie talk for some time about Amari, until they're interrupted by yelling outside. Ellie goes to investigate the situation, to find two raiders threatening to kill and steal supplies from a young man. One of the raiders shoots the man in the leg. Ellie reacts quickly and shoots the two raiders before they could spot her and rushes over to help the young man whose leg is bleeding heavily. She takes him into the apartment and begins cleaning up the wound and removing the bullet. The episode ends with the man introducing himself as Samuel.
