"Anything." she said fairly quiet. Jess eyed the building that Vivian had spoken of. It was pretty big, like she said, but it definitely wasn't in the best condition: over grown plants scaling the wall, the brick had lost most of it's color, and dead bodies had littered the area. She glanced to other two and quickly looked back at the building. Her finger ran up and down the arrow a bit slower now, cautiously. Her index finger circled the tip, scraping the skin. Maybe her gut was telling her that something's in the building, and maybe there is. Either, the kids, or a couple hundred zombies. She ran her fingers through her hair many times, trying to keep them away from the arrow.

IHLAOY Newbie"Huh, well, that is interesting." Lucas commented.
Putting down the binoculars for a second, he pointed at the bodies surrounding the building. "The dead bodies suggest that there are survivors holding out in there," Lucas said, picking up his radio, "Vivian, where's Dan at this moment?"
"Dan appears to be heading north to gather more supplies before the next push, but I can't vouch for where the rest of her troupe is."
"Alright. Any idea who's in there?" Lucas replied, nodding slightly.
"Nah, sorry."
"Just perfect." Looking back at the girls, Lucas clicked his teeth together. This was just horribly irresponsible of him. The girls were barely teens, for crying out loud. He should have taken the time to make sure they were safe. Sighing, he stood back up. "I just want to make this clear to you girls. If something happens to me, I want you to get out of here. Indigo is important, but she's not worth your life. Get out of here, find HQ, run back to wherever your hiding, just don't go down yourself. Got it?" Lucas asked. -
Jess stopped fidgeting and nodded at him. "Sure." she mumbled. She wasn't really in the mood for crap, heck, she was actually getting tired. She looked at the sky and looked at the stars. It was probably 3 in the morning by now. The sky showed it. And she learned that from her brother.
"And that one," He starts "That ones Antlia. Beautiful, isn't it?" He turn to look at me Jess, eager for an answer.
"Yeah. So what can it tell me?" she asks, ready for more information.
"Well it comes out usually during April, around this time, and it comes out around nine-tenish." His eyes search the stars.
The memory drifts away as she concentrates on the sky. And then the area. -
IHLAOY NewbieWaiting a moment for Jess blank look to pass, Lucas continued, "Come on."
Walking out onto the street, Lucas gave it a quick search for danger before inching forward. If there were people in the building, Indigo was probably safe. All he had to do was go in and get her out. "Hey Vivian," Lucas asked while walking, "you talked to some new survivors yesterday, right?"
"Who, Jackson? Yea, what about?"
"Are they the ones in this building? Did you ever get around to asking them where they were?"
"Nah mate, Jack wouldn't answer. Is that suspicious?"
"A little, yea." Lucas commented, finally reaching the line of bodies. Bending down for a second, Lucas touched one lightly; confusion growing on his face. "That's odd. This one's warm. Zombies aren't warm." -
She followed as told. "Wait, Jackson? I know that guy, sort of. He's staying at a farm, about a mile or so from here." She said. "So they wouldn't be here, but someone else might be." She suggested. Jackson was probably asleep. And most likely having nightmares, like the rest. The rest that saw what happened many years ago. And her attitude years ago was nothing like her now. Talking back, starting fights, and being a smart alec was more common for her now.
"What's up with that body?" she asks, bending down to investigate. She pulls out a flash light to see it better. A body. But not a zombie one. The skin is still, well, humanly, but the face isn't very familiar. -
IHLAOY Newbie"You're part of Jackson's group? Now you really need to get back to HQ. Rob's been pulling his hair out about you guys ever since Vivian and Jack had that chat. But...right, back to the body."
Under the light of the flashlight, Lucas began to make out more details. "It's James," he said, before expanding for the girls, "James was a part of Dan's group, had this cool card trick he used to do. Wonder what he was doing down here."
Raising his radio again, "Hey Vivian, has Dan reported any missing people yet?"
There was a moment of silence, "She said not to tell you...but I guess that's over right now."
"Damn it, Viv. You know what happens when you do this s---, we need to work together, we need unit--"
A loud bang cut off Lucas' sentence, and for a second he didn't know how to react. A weird numbness was spreading through his body, and he felt his strength leaving him. Another second passed, and Lucas lost the strength to stand. His mouth was feeling strangely dry, and he could only cough out a few words. "So this is how my story ends."
The shooter was nowhere to be found, but his voice rang out clearly. "Stay where you are. Do not attempt to run. Do not attempt to use your radio. Do not attempt to draw your weapons. Simply place them on the ground and wait for someone to collect them. I repeat, do not attempt to do anything other than what is stated."
There was a brief pause, "Unless you want to end up as your friend there, I just want to make sure we're clear." -
Jess gasped watching Lucas fall. It had been a while since she had seen someone get hurt. Or die. "L-Lucas?" Her voice barely above a whisper. Her flash light scanned the area, but no one was in sight.
"W-who's there?" she said. Her voice was shaking. No no no no. It doesn't do that. Not usually. She drew her bow up, ready to shoot. The arrow shook between her fingers. What is she got shot? No, don't think that way. She thought to herself. -
What if she got shot?*)

IHLAOY Newbie(Man, I feel a little bad for Ginny now; maybe I should have waited for her.)
Another loud bang filled the street, this time the flare clearly illuminating a window in Unatco. A small puff of dirt shot up next to Ivy and blew away into the wind. "We will not ask again, place the weapon on the ground. We don't have the ammo or noise to spare, next shot it to kill."
From the radio on the ground, a faint voice could be heard. "Lucas? Please don't be dead, please don't be dead, say something. Lucas, what was the noise? Come on, stop joking, this isn't funny. I've got about six different people listening who want to know how this ends and another three trying to call the station, Lucas, please answer." -
Yeah, I'll just stop with this for tonight.)
-
IHLAOY Newbie(Alright. I'll wait for both posts before continuing in the morning than.)
-
Ok, I'll come on around the usual time I do. Later.)
-
IHLAOY Newbie(oh, I forgot to mention this, Ginny; since you weren't here, feel free to decide where your character is. I don't want to force you into any situations you don't want.)
-
(Gosh guys, thanks for waiting! XP)
Ivy shrieked when the second bullet narrowly missed her. She looked down at Lucas, edging away from the indented ground beside her. She looked up and at Jess and placed an hand on her arm, and lowered the bow.
"What do you want?" She called, before adding as an afterthought "You know, aside from trying to kill us and take all our stuff!" She ran her fingers along the string of her bow. He wants my weapon? Fine. and she threw it where she figured the voice to be coming from, hoping that her baseball skills hadn't gotten any worse, and hoping that she knocked him out. -
(Sorry!)
Jess sighs in frustration at the fact that she's being touched. She hasn't let anyone touch her in a long time. Not since her brother left her. But she wouldn't drop her weapon. "Bloody hell." she mumbled. Bending down, she picked up the radio.
"Lucas, that guy, yeah, he's down. Wounded you could say. I don't know his condition. So, uh, could you send people? Stat." She held the radio in one hand and her bow and arrows between her fingers in her other hand, struggling to decide what to do next.
