Grant and Pomelo leave the junkyard, walking home towards the apartments. The old wrestler searches the empty streets with careful green eyes, looking for even the slightest sign of movement.
Was that a shadow moving out by the alley there? ...No, it's just a rat. He shakes his head and keeps close quarters to his begoggled neighbor.

Grant seemed a little on edge since they left the Junkyard, which kind of amused her. Seeing an ex-wrestler be a little jumpy brought the slightest of smiles on her face, and when he shook his head she gave him a gentle pat on the arm.
"Relax!" she yelled, hoping he could hear her even slightly. "Being jumpy makes you age faster!" It was a joke at best, and her smile widened some to tell him as much.

It probably wasn't the best place to be wandering almost aimlessly, but Juliette sometimes found it peaceful while out scavenging. (And looking for more cats). There was the slight problem of her on going dizziness, though she was beginning to finally feel it subside along with a few of the major areas where she had been still bleeding. Honestly, she did feel better. A little more coherent, but she didn't want to push herself too hard.
Going with the buddy system would have been the smart thing to do. But she was already out. "Oh," she realized, noticing the two of them walking. They seemed to be going in similar directions. "Hello, mind if I join you?"

Grant hails the newcomer with a friendly grin and a loud, booming, "Hello!"
He looks at Juliet and taps at his ear. "Ears are kinda busted, by the way," he informs her, "So my talking's gonna be mostly one-way." He gives her a nod.

"Jules!" she cried, though the volume of her voice was probably a bit high because she's gotten used to raising it for Grant's sake. She sidled up to the older woman and gave her a side-hug before glancing around, curious if she'd brought along a feline friend or two. It was a curiosity cut short by the sound of lurching and groaning to her left.
"I spoke too soon, Grant!" she called, this time backing up as it approached. Ugh.

There seemed to be so many unfortunate injuries going around. Broken jaws, blindness, her own uneasiness as she walked about. And now blown eardrums, "you poor thing!" She pressed a hand to Grant's cheek in sympathy and then turned to return the hug to the Mel.
She would have requested her as a steady brace as they continued on but the area seemed to have other ideas. Her head turned to the source of the ruckus and gasped, "oh, that doesn't look pleasant!" And not very friendly at all.
It lunged at them, pushing Juliette away from Mel and stumbling backwards. The thorns on its arm brushed lightly against her cheek. Some unknown strength apparently came from the older woman, perhaps unreleased tension bottled up for years... or something. She threw a punch, something she had never done in her life, and caught the thing square in the face.

Grant straightens up at the sight of the shambling undead. It's the first time he's gotten a really good, up close look at one of those fellers, close enough to suplex, anyway.
...Or try to.
"Lemme take care of that, gals," he says, cracking his knuckles and barreling towards the unliving like a ton of bricks, apparently unaware of the slick rain puddle near the creature. As he wraps his arms around it (and those thorns ******** hurt, ow), his shoes skid in the water and he ends up careening into a garbage can with a loud crash.
The zombie is released and gets up, unscathed.

Her concern for Grant had to be set aside so she could focus on the more imminent threat: the dang undead that had its sights set on them. He pulled out her knife and reached out to take a chunk of it, like she did that one other time she'd faced an undead, and managed to cut it up pretty good in exchange for a slight scratch on her arm. No biggie, she'd live.
When she stepped back she called back to Grant, hoping the man would hear her so she could rest a bit of her worries. "Grant, you okay?!"

"Oh, are you alright you two?" Oh course she was concerned as well as the creature cornered them. Grant had tried so hard to fight it back and protect the two of them girls, but instead found himself in the trash cans. As Mel went to his aid - after a nice hit with her knife, which Juliette found nice for her to have found - the sixty year old found herself face to face with the undead plant mutant thing once again.
"I'm sorry to do this," She told it as she stumbled back, grabbing the lid that had been tossed from Grant's landing. It was a little awkward to hold, a little dented and honestly she had no idea what to do with it at first.... so she just threw it. Once again, her aim went for its head, its neck snapped backwards and it fell to the ground with a clatter then slowly began to dissolve.
"Goodness, that was a little intense."

Grant's head is spinning, but he's at least no worse for the wear -- although he got a few holes in his new sweater already, boooo. As he looks around for the zombie, he can't seem to find the thing... and then he lays eyes on a potato sitting on the ground nearby.
You know, because the universe likes throwing those things at him lately.
He picks it up off the ground and holds it up, pointing to it with a huge, dumb grin. "Hey, food!"

Well that went a lot...smoother. With a grin she put her knife away and sidled up to Juliette, an arm over the woman's shoulders. "Remind me to bring you along more often, Jules," she said as she bent down to pick up a card she assumed was from the thing. Maybe these things had pockets or something, last time she found a potato with one.

Juliette wouldn't have expected the undead creature to have any items upon it - the same thought as Mel crossed her mind, did it have pockets or something? But on the ground where it had been slain, she too found a card just laying there. "We would have had a pair." She mused to the younger girl.
"I'm not sure I can take this excitement too often," she also added.
