Prometheus smiled at the other man's accent, thinking to himself that it just
made him cuter, but he averted that thought for the moment as Icarius'
message came back to him. He listened intently and frowned at the news.
He sighed softly and looked to the other two before his mechnical voice
because of his helmet chimes in again, "My fellows are barracaded in some
kind of Super Market--whatever that is--so I suggest we hurry and get to-"
He was cut off by the sound of Helicopters and pointed his wrist device
towards the sky to scan the two incomming objects. Once the scan was
finished and the two objects were flying overhead, Prometheus pulled up the
data on the two helicopters and remarked, "Fascinating... they seem to be
primitive aircraft used to faster ferry people in crisis... and they look to be
military. We should head to where it came from, towards the military base,
perhaps then they can send those Heli-contraptions to save Icarius!"
Prometheus had been half talking to himself, but he smiled under his helmet
and beckoned they follow him. They stayed near the shadows as he advised.
"Behold what I, a God, from Gods endure!
Look down upon my shame,
The cruel wrong that racks my frame,
The grinding anguish that shall waste my strength,
Till time's ten thousand years have measured out their length!"
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . - Prometheus Bound ▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄▀▄
Hello Darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk to you again
Because a vision softly creeping
Left its seeds while I was sleeping
And the vision that was planted in my brain,
Still remains,
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone,
Narrow streets of cobblestone.
'Neath the halo of a street lamp
I turned my collar to the cold and damp,
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light,
That split the night,
And touched the sound of silence.

Morgan looked up at the Helicopters and thought Prometheus was trying to
flag them down with that device of his, but as they passed on by he sighed
hopelessly. That may have saved them all and they missed it! Of course
running, jumping and screaming into the air to get their attention probably
wouldn't have worked anyways, and might have attracted Zombies, but it was
still worth a shot... or not. He would rather be alive and quiet than alive with a
slim chance of rescue or just dead after the zombies got through with them.
"Alright then... who or what is this Icarius?" he asked, but as he went
without an answer he sighed once more, becoming frustrated as they made
their way to the military base.

After a while, Bartholomew noticed Sydelle and the troll following him, as well as the girl whom was injured. Frowning a little, he waited a little and let them catch up. "Hey, do you want me to carry you?" he asked, nodding to her leg. "I don't like the amount of blood coming out of that." He said as other thoughts ran through his head. Did it go through the bone? Was it going to get infected? Where did she get it from? But he clamped his mouth shut, he was just lucky she wasn't going into shock. Turning to Sydelle, he grinned goofily. "While we walk, tell me a little about yourself!" He suggested, keeping a keen eye out for zombies.

 Sydelle WestYou're not a hero, you're a liar...
Sydelle was neither surprised nor pleased to find that the girl had followed. Not that she thought her particularly more heinous than her fellow beings. Morality was never something the young woman dwelled on. She didn't, however, appear particularly useful. More a victim than a survivor. And if that leg wound ended up being infected, Sydelle would be the first to pull the trigger. She was distracted from such heartless thoughts by Bartholomew's statement. "Myself?" She echoed with a raised eyebrow. "Jumping into the tragic life story already? Very well. Back when the world was filled with less walking corpses, I worked in the black market." She smiled, imagining what the injured girl must think of her upon hearing that. "And if profits and lack of arrests are any indication, I was very good at it."
...you're not a savior, you're a vampire.

[[Yeah it's fine. I'm not one to be a stickler on such stuff]] Kary winced from the blow, crippled over and slowly passed out. She gave a mean glare at Desirae before collapsing, face-down, on the ground. She lay still, unconscious, for the time being. But "they" might figure something out, and try to get Kary on her feet as soon as possible. [[Not much of a post, but hey, drives the story]]

 Jasmine Langdon Waits till Natalie and Emmerah is out of sight, before climbing the steps slowly, getting to the third step up, and takes a huge breath in. Okay... You can do this, Jas. Just drop the light. The spark will ignite and fried zombies...
She closes her eyes and soon a few lights fall to the wet floor, sparking and sending jolts as she turns and runs up the stairs. Unsure if the electricity would go through the concrete stairs, but better safe than sorry."Run!" She calls to them if they were on the stairs, if not, she was yelling at herself as she runs, taking two at a time up to the roof.

 "I'm Natalie," she answered for what had to be the twentieth time that day. She was aware of Emmerah's strangeness (from the shape-changing to the weird way of 'walking'), but she purposely chose to ignore it.
She tried taking the stairs two at a time, but tripped over her own feet. With a huge huff of air, she blew her bangs out of her face and wished she could stop being so clumsy for once. It might have been her imagination, but she could swear she heard the loud thud-thud-thud of the helicopter's blades chopping through the air overhead.
As they climbed higher, Natalie felt a sudden charge to the air from—well, whatever it was Jasmine had just done to the zombies downstairs. She hoped everything was fine, but knew she needed to focus on getting to the roof and flagging down their rescue.
"Nice to meet you," she told Emmerah, adding silently, I hope.

Emmerah smiled, that creepy little smile of hers "Yes, nice to meet you..." She paused for a moment, as if contemplating something. I hear a helicopter overhead, this may be my last chance to get an easy grip on this one..."Before we proceed, would you allow me to.. remove... Any negative emotions you may be having?"She slightly altered Natalie's emotions to make her more curious and submissive. If I do this right... I could have a long-term customer. If I don't... Well, that could be interesting.

As Kary fell over, Desirae pulled the unconscious girl on her back. Ventes, we have to go quickly and get her restrained." Desirae shouted starting to sprint northward toward the bridge. (( gonk Where is RulangoRedeamer?))

 Ventes AllaratusxxxxxVentes nodded and sheathed his sword. As he turned to follow Desirae, he felt like the gaze of eyes were burning through his skull. He didn't like it. "Alright" He said, following her carefully. ((I'm so sorry! I'm doing a research paper, it's kicking me in the a**. Sorry that I completely forgot about this Dx))

Icarius narrowed his eyes at the creature that was continuing to annoy him
to no end. If he were stuck with that thing, he would've shot it already, but his
companions seemed to have gotten attatched to the annoying little Moo
or whatever it was called. He predicted hostility towards him if he outright
killed the little creature, and he wasn't willing to risk that... just yet.
"From your own mouth," Icarius said to the creature who didn't seem to
grasp the severity of their situation, "You said they only wish to reproduce
and feed. WE are their food. We are like rats in a cage, and how much do
you want to bet the cats outside will find a way to reach the food source they
know is in here? Stop and think for a moment. They don't have to be clever
to 'figure out' how to get in here. Even if they are instinctive creatures, so are
animals, and if it were a crowd of hungry tigers out there, you would want to
baracade the doors and entrances just in case they managed to find a way
in." As Coraline spoke he frowned.
"I'll go check for a map, and if you don't want to set up barricades, let that be
the death of you. As soon as I get the map I'm getting to higher ground, with
or without you," he said, and reached back into his hood to pull on his
helmet so it would filter out the rancid air near the office. He cracked his
neck before swinging his crude spear over his shoulder and walking towards
the office he had found earlier.

 Coraline saw how angry he was with Miza, then once he looked at her. She saw a frown take over his face, and he went back into the office to check for the map. Coraline looked at Miza and Xavier and shrugged. She walked to the back of the store and found a back door, she looked around to see anything to barricade the doors.
Coraline found a back room full of dog food. One by one she grabes a dog bag and stacks them to block the door. Coraline took a deep breath and wiped her forehead and sat down. Coraline felt like a weakling, even though she lifted dog food bags just minutes ago. She sighs, she guess's she feels that way because everyone was like a leader but her, she was like the mouse and everyone else is a cat.
Coraline hugged her knees puting her head down on them and she closes her eyes.

Icarius and Miza seemed to be having some sort of altercation, but it ended
soon after as Icarius headed towards the back of the building to find a map.
He mentioned that once he found it, he was leaving with or without them.
Xavier knew he would definitely be in the "with" group; Xavier had proved so
far that he was more than capable of taking care of himself. But, as hostile
as Icarius seemed to be, Xavier felt an odd sense of comfort whenever he
was in Icarius' presence. So for now, he would definitely be sticking with him.
"Sorry." He muttered to Miza and Coraline. Coraline was already bustling
away, stacking bags of dog food over the back door. Xavier rushed over to
help her, but saw that she had already finished. She was curled up, with her
head in her lap. "Shoot, I was gonna help." Xavier said, sighing and taking a seat next to
her. "Well, looks like we just wait to see if Icarius finds a map, and then we
can leave." Xavier said.
He scanned the supermarket, apparently looking for something. Then he
gasped and jumped up. "Our supplies! Did we leave them outside?" ((Whoops, sorry about that guys >.<))

Coraline looked up to see Xavier, he took a seat next her. Then she heard him say something about if they left their supplies. Coraline's eyes widened,"dammit, we did..."Coraline looks at Xavier and puts her hands on her face."How are we going to get them back?"she said then looked back at him. (( sorry it's a little short :/ ))

Xavier frowned, after Coraline confirmed that they had, indeed, left their supplies outside.
Xavier thought for a moment. "I guess when Icarius gets back, someone can distract the infected, and the others can run out and get the supplies?"
He was content with the plan, and really hoped that it would work. But, continuing to think, he hit another brick wall.
"If our supplies are in shopping carts, how are we going to get the carts to the roof?" Xavier said, putting his face in his hands.
"I guess we can try to fit them in bags instead?"
Xavier then began to look around the store for satchels, instead of plastic bags. Plastic bags would rip too easily, and they needed something that could fit over their shoulder, so as not to get in the way during their escape.
