"That's her. Acting all tough." Desirae sighed, scratched her head and looked at Kary. "Listen, I'm going to let you in on something. My body isn't functioning at full like it should be. I don't know if it's something with this plain of existence or the shock from getting warped here. Thing is, if my body is like this, whose to say Tina's isn't in the same condition." she looked down at her feet as she gave the bad news and continued; "I'll do my best to keep you safe though!" she cheered up instantly and gave a wink.
"Hey, Tina! Need a hand?" Desirae called out to her sister as she stepped out of the shadows. "It's about time you showed up!" Tina implied an insult about Desirae being slow. "Hello there Missy! We'll have to save introductions for later!" Tina politely spoke and brought her attention back to the brute. "Say, Tina. I think this guy wants your title..." Desirae coaxed her sister to get mad. "Heheheh."

"Other what, zombies or survivors?" Natalie asked. As they continued down the street, she purposefully steered them around a pile of crashed cars, knowing that there were likely trapped zombies in the wreckage. "Either way, yes to both. For now, I think we should stick together until we find others we can trust, but I... I'd understand if you want to go at any point."
She let a beat of silence past but quickly, before the woman could answer, she explained, "And zombies are reanimated corpses. I'm not sure if they can see, but I'm pretty sure they can smell and hear. They—Just don't get bitten, okay? And don't try to reason with them. It really doesn't work that way."

Xavier feels relieved to see that the girl noticed him. But, he put up his defenses, as he saw the girl take a step back, and put her hand on the pistol strapped to her side.
He looks up and down the street making sure there are no infected around, then he quietly calls out, "It's okay! I'm not infected! Are there any others out there?"

 Courtney Vantena
Courtney woke up from her nightmare. She looked around and took a deep breath. She got up and got ready. She desperately needed to go into town to pick up some things. She grabbed her jacket, her pistol, and her kunai set. She opened the door and checked the perimeter. Living in a tree had it's benefits. She had the greatest view in town. She fed Lightning, her dog, then headed to town.
The walk was a good 30 maybe 40 minutes, not to far for Courtney. She noticed a couple people in town and sighed. These were days she wished she could easily make friends. But unfortunately she couldn't. . . . She walked out of the store after picking up the two things she needed. She noticed to the girl and the boy talking and decided to say hi. Eh, it wouldn't hurt. She slowly walked over there, taking her time, thinking it through.

 ✘✘Evelyn Alice✘✘ Open wide.. The flare had long gone out and the dead circled around two new bodies in the parking lot. They climbed over one another just for a nibble, perhaps just a lick of flesh. Evelyn heaved the last body over the roof's edge. It smacked face first into the concrete, leaving a crunching noise to ring in the air as the undead literally broke each others bones just to get to it. As blood and guts spilled into their hands Alice waltzed over to an old record player she had set up next to a lawn chair on the hospital's roof. She played a classical record whoms title had been worn away with many years of age. Her last three failed expirements were now in the jaws of the choas, so music was all that would calm her for now. Evelyn twirled around for a few moments then slunk into the chair with a bit of a frown. Patients were not going to come to her, she was going to have to get them herself. ...Its time for your medicine ((Excuse the writers block))

 Coraline lets go of her pistol with relief and steps a little closer. "No, it's only me. Are any other in there with you aswell?" Coraline asks with a little hope.

"So...you're saying you're not in shape, or something?" Kary had a hard time understanding just what Desirae had become, and it showed.Slowly she stepped out from behind Desirae's legs, digging out her other axe. Taking a deep breath, she whipped an axe at the zombie, the weapon sticking into its arm. Kary quickly rushed at it, leaping to retrieve her axe and taking a ride as the zombie swung its arm around, trying to shake her off. Kary retrieved her weapon, blood dripping from it (along with another unknown substance that seemed like warm jello) As the zombie reached back for her, she leapt in the air, hucking an axe at its head. it stuck, and the zombie let out a blood-curdling scream. Kary came down and dug her weapon from the skull. It swayed, and she had trouble holding her balance. "This probably wasn't smart..." she muttered. Though she thought she would get down easily, her mistake came in raising a leg, throwing her balance off. "Woah!" she flailed her arms, but as she fell, was caught by the beast, which then raised her over its head, attempting to eat her. "Somebody save me!" she cried.

 Jasmine Langdon Nods, thinking. Don't get bitten? Like she would let those monsters touch her, yuck. She had little hope for the other survivors. Numbers were good, yes. But sometimes, being a loner was better. And with that thought, she pondered in silence for a few seconds about offer. Stay with her, find others, or go out alone. With someone else, she could easily leave the girl and run for it, or at least get someone who wouldn't make her emotions nerve-wrecking like they have been. Then again, if she was alone she wouldn't have to share her supplies... But yet then again, she didn't understand these creatures. After arguing with herself a minute it seems she nods, sighing,"I guess we can stick together and find others."Her violet eyes glazed over in thought, but still conscience. Wondering the numbers. She knew if they ever ran out of supplies or low, she didn't have to satisfy her hunger, but the other one needed to... She grimaced to herself, humans. Why couldn't there be a world full of physics instead? None of this wouldn't of happened, she bet. Looking straight ahead, she asks, "So where to now?"

Honestly, Natalie was relieved by her answer. For someone who had been self-reliant before the outbreak, she had gotten used to traveling with others in this crazy world. Still, she braced herself, knowing that in this kind of situation, people came and went, got separated, or were killed. For now, she was happy to have an ally, but no matter what happened down the line, she had to be prepared to keep moving forward.
"The way I see it, we've got a few options. We could head toward the hospital, where I saw a flare earlier. We could head inside and hole up somewhere, until things quiet down, but that also means we could get trapped if we got swarmed. We can keep roaming the streets and find others. Or, finally, we can follow these directions," Natalie listed quickly, waving her hand at one of the messages nearby that glowed under the eerie black lights. "I would really rather not do the hospital, but you seemed pretty weak earlier. If you need medical supplies, we could try there first."
She paused, noise catching her attention.
"Shh..." she cautioned, standing still and tilting her head as though it actually intensified her hearing. "You hear that? People... We could find them, too. But, I should warn you, not everyone's a good person when the world is ending."

 Jasmine Langdon She loudly sighs, no hospital could help her, she was just.. Drained of energy. But there were people, that meant food, or chance of survival. She knew right now she could use her "other sight" to see if she can hear people, but she didn't want to creep the girl out yet. Looking to where the big red cross was painted, now fading, on the hospital, she debated on going over there. The place gave her a bad, foreboding vibe, but it also had Medical supplies. She knew the woman would need medical supplies, her too if they seriously got hurt."Okay."She stated."I think, we should go to the hospital to get medical supplies. I don't think it'd be wise to stay there."She refused to admit that the place didn't settle with her and her explanation, it'd be too weird, to awkward at this time. Feeling the auras of someone she frowned, "..Yes, I hear them. And it's quite obvious, where Anarchy is free to reign, people become mad." She is unsure about meeting new people, getting used to this companion as is.

 "Well Sydelle, lets get ourselves out of the cold. Shall we? Bartholomew said as he suddenly felt a breeze pass him. Huddling up into his coat, he closed the door behind him and led them into the underground holdout. "We have a small infirmary, a good sized green house, for all of your gardening needs, several bedrooms, a kitchen, an armory, although I don't think I quiet trust you with that yet, and an observation room. It seems another gal was headed this way." He said, indicating towards everything as they walked by. Going into the observation room, he noticed a lot of humans started to surface. Uninfected. He flicked a switch, turning off all of the blacklights. "We keep those on, and it might get crowded here. And fast." He murmured. Bartholomew wasn't heartless, but he wasn't stupid either. Too much and they could run out of supplies way too quickly. "Make yourselves at home. Just don't break anything." He said as he leaned back in his chair, making sure the armory was locked. Satisfied that it was, he noticed Horatio had jumped onto his lap, so he contented himself with stroking it as he watched the girl find herself wandering towards his home.

"To the hospital, then," Natalie agreed, spying three zombies rounding a corner up ahead.
After a few tense seconds, she realized they were the slow, heavily-rotted ones. While there were several that were faster, so far they'd been lucky. In her experience, being down in the streets was better than getting caught in the tight corridors of a building. When out in the open, it was easy to evade the slower creatures.
It was about then that the black lights disappeared... and the messages along with it. Natalie vaguely remembered the direction the arrows pointed, but she doubted she could find where they indicated without help.
"Looks like you made the right choice since the mysterious directions are out of the picture. I'm Natalie, by the way," she greeted, holding out her hand automatically for a handshake as if the world hadn't gone to hell a long time ago. "Natalie Craig. And thanks, you know, for trusting me and everything. I'll try not to screw it up," she joked weakly.{{Well, I'm off to bed, but I'll be online tomorrow. :] For a bit, anyway. I have an enormous mountain of homework to tackle. Ah, and feel free to take off at anytime to interact with other characters, of course!}}

 Jasmine Langdon Nods, as she watches the strange directions, her too, taking a mental image of them. Saving them for later. As she fingers the lace in the front of her dress, She wonders if there would be anyone left that's a professional, imagining that the hospital would've been the first place to get hit. She looks at the woman's hand skeptical, she knows what will happen if she comes in direct contact. Her able to suppress the ability for so long."Jasmine Langdon." she answers her, lightly as possible taking her hand. Then, the unthinkable happens! The emotions from Natalie flow right through her, causing her to squeeze her eyes shut and rip her hand from Natalie, them flying up and holding her temples in pain.

((I apologise for my inactivity, I put in a 14 hour shift at work)) Bruno watches as the woman raises her weapon. He is able to see what is on the surface of her mind, so he knows that she is not about to shoot him. He stands still, relaxed, as she fires her weapon beyond him to "injure" the zombie coming up on him. He twists his body to look behind him at the zombie and sees that it has been destroyed by another woman who speaks German. He understands what she says, because everybody speaks the same language in the mind. Apparently, Mara (he has gleaned her name from her mind) has evoked a reaction from the surrounding zombies, so Bruno finishes them quickly, using his system of portals that he opens with his mind, and then comes back to speak with the girl. He mutters under his breath, "Je déteste la langue anglaise. C'est une telle langue peu soignée." He looks at Mara. "My name is Bruno. What is your name?"

 ✘✘Evelyn Alice✘✘ Open wide.. With the record now off Evelyn put plastic over it to keep it in its condition then hurried down stairs. She had grown famished and decided to head to the kitchen for a bite to eat. The food here had already been eaten by actual patients and staff but that was back when they were all still here. Alice opend the freezer and drug out a chunk of meat, she cut a few slivers off then slapped it onto a trey to put in the oven. An ID card stuck to her foot after going into the walk in freezer. Dr. Halloway She kicked it off then turned on the oven and shoved it in. When your trapped inside a hospital with no food for several months you can only turn towards your fellow coworkers for the answers. After a few minutes it dinged. She sat her trey down at one of cafeteria's tables then began to eat. ...Its time for your medicine ((This post was completely useless but I wanted to throw some cannibalisim into the story. You know, other than zombies of course.))
