(( NOTE: Instead of making separate threads for my scavenging hunts, I'm just posting them in numbered days to easily keep track. ))DAY 1Making her way outside to go on a scavenger run, Brie quickly surveyed the area before quietly and quickly down the street. Going it alone, she would have to be extra careful, as well as make haste. It's not like she hadn't gone on her own before, as it was daytime, but still.. she wouldn't want to be stuck out here by herself either if something happened.
Peering around the corner she checked for anything or anyone around. Safe. Climbing up over the railing to one of the abandoned apartments, before slipping inside an open window.
Luckily her bag was able to carry more items than others, so if she was successful in finding something, she would be able to carry most back with ease.Quote:  Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 3 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: Reference

DAY 1
Whoever had lived here had left in a hurry, as there were still quite a few things laying around, as well as some valuables. Then again, what use was money in this world now? The only things that mattered now were food, water, shelter and weapons.
Lifting objects as she searched the building, the girl made her way over towards the kitchen, still on high alert.
Opening random cupboards resulted in locating one very small bottle of water. Good enough for one person, perhaps. "Better than nothing, I guess." Tucking it away in the bag, she continued her search.
Moving to the fridge she pulled it open only to find empty containers that still had food residue smell on them. Thanks to the lack power to operate the fridge, the smell was overwhelmingly bad. "Oh, God." About to slam it shut, she noticed one regular sized bottle of water tucked away in the back. A much better find then the puny bottle of water she had found before. Yanking it out, she closed the fridge, and carried on.
Alas, no luck in finding food, only the remains of what people had polished off. It appeared her only luck was the two bottles of water today.
Making her way back to the window, she climbed back out the apartment and dropped over the side of the railing, landing on the ground in a crouch. Wiping the dirt and mud from her hands and knees, she began her walk back home, but not before finding something sticking out of a puddle.
Grabbing the item, she turned it over, revealing it to be a can of sardines. Gross. The tin was dented, and covered mud, but aside from that it was uncontaminated, and before the expiration date to boot. Likely there was someone back at base who craved a can of sardines. They could have it for all she cared.
With that, Brie shook her head and headed home.
(( Ignore the last number, I rolled one too many. No bikini for meee. ))

DAY 2Bringing along a slightly bigger bag than yesterdays, Brie headed out for another run to scavenge the area again. This time, she was headed to one of the abandoned stores. Hopefully, she would have more luck then what she had found in the apartment, though the bottles of water were still a pretty good find at least.
Luckily, she had not encountered any undead in the area, and if she was careful, it would preferably stay that way. At least if something did happen, it was a pretty clear run back to home base.Quote: Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 4 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: Reference

DAY 2
Finding a hefty stick on her way inside, she swung it around in a bored manner, and began poking random items with the object. She wasn't sure if t would be of much use, aside from using it as a door stop, or maybe even throwing it at something, or someone. But hey, it was something none the less. The others could deem whether or not if it was handy or completely useless.
Rounding the corner, she moved down the aisles of the store, still jabbing at anything she could find. Among these things, she located a bikini. No, not the whole swimsuit, just the top. Either someone was walking around topless, or.. Either way, it was completely out of place here. Shrugging, she tucked it away. It might come in handy if someone needed patching up. Whatever.
Like most places, this one had been pretty cleaned out. The only things left were complete and utter garbage. Anything in view had likely already been snatched up by other survivors.
Glancing about, she moved for one of the shelves that had been knocked over, and pushed it backwards, cringing when it made a large racket. That, was probably stupid of her. But not a wasted effort.
"Jackpot!"
Among all the junk that was on the floor, five Aero bars, had been completely missed by others. Quickly shoving the items into her bag, there was also some new, drab clothing that was discovered along with them. "That might be handy." Gathering up the rest of the items, it was probably best to head back now. Lord knew what she might have alerted by the ruckus made, and staying to find out was not an option.
Not too bad at least. Two bottles of water, and a can of sardines from yesterdays, and now five chocolate bars and some clothing. Better than nothing, which was likely going to start happening sooner or later.
(( okay, the bikini is back. 8T ))

DAY 3Gearing up for another venture up, Brie had become quite accustomed to making daily trips outside in order to find supplies. Going it alone also suited her much better then going in groups. More time to herself, and being able to move at her own pace.
Grabbing her bag, the red head strapped it on while moving for the exit. With everything in check, she pushed the door open, closing it behind her and went on her way.Quote: Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 3 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: Reference

DAY 3
Exploring a little further than normal, she decided to take one of the routes she had seen from roof when she was with Alex. There still wasn't much luck in finding places left that hadn't already been looted, and sooner or later their group would have to start making more daring efforts in gathering supplies. Or worse, move on from this area completely.
Shuddering at the idea, Brie checked every inch of the area before moving to the next. It was already getting late in the day, and if she wasn't successful in finding anything soon, she would have to turn back empty handed, and hope tomorrow would be better.
Rubbing the side of her head in annoyance, she continued on further, coming across a house that looked relatively untouched. At least by looters. Scanning the area for any threats, the girl moved closer, stepping inside the building, she tapped the walls with a nearby object to see if anything was hanging around inside. Not hearing anything, she deemed it safe and entered the building fully.
A quick sweep of the home revealed that whoever had lived her was smart, and took everything that would be of use to them. All the food, and bottled beverages..
Entering a room which appeared to be that of some youth, she was slightly less surprised and more relieved to find that whatever kid lived here left behind a small stash of candy bars. Five Aero bars to be exact. Apparently all this country ate was Aero bars, or hated them so much, they left them behind. Oh well. Their loss was her gain.
Among the things she found in the room, were some new, drab clothing, as well as a half used package of batteries. Those would come in handy as well.
Tucking all items away, she started on her way back, figuring she best hurry, unless she wanted to be out here at night. Which, she didn't.

DAY 5Stretching, Brie winced at the pain that still ached in her head. She was lucky enough to receive some of her hearing back, but it was still difficult to judge how loud everything was, resulting in her speaking louder still.
Grabbing her items, she headed out with her bag, ready for another day of scavenging. She had finished with all the Harbinger's tasks, so now it was time to refocus on her faction's needs.Quote: Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 3 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: ReferenceStatus: Eardrums damage.

DAY 5
The day went about as they normally did. A lot of completely useless items were found, like another hefty stick, but the hunt for items wasn't all bad either. In her time out, she also managed to locate half used package of batteries, as well as another can of Beefaroni! "Score!" Beefaroni was a MUCH better find then a disgusting can of sardines. She would take this find any day.
Tucking said items away in her bag, Brie started back to their home base in order to drop off what she had found.
With any luck, their faction would be holding out against whatever was to come. The idea of her faction falling at all brought grim thoughts to the girl's mind. "We'll survive this.." They had to. They'd be screwed if they didn't.

DAY 6
Brie practically skipped down the stairs to their apartment building, more than relieved to be able to hear things much better than she had before. She still had a bad, dull ache in her head, and ears heart like hell, but the fact she could hear better was a blessing of its own.
With her, she had her usual bag. It had enough room to carry more items than most, but still, she would have to make choices on which she preferred to bring back with her.
Slipping her took on over her head, the girl made for the door, pushing her way through and closing it up behind her. It was time for another scavenging run!Quote: Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 4 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: ReferenceStatus: Eardrums damage.

DAY 6
Brie was making good time today, even if she wasn't finding anything too useful right off the bat. She had found the off trinket here and there, but nothing really noteworthy, or would be helpful to her faction. Just little things that she herself found interesting. Tucking the tiny objects away, she continued on her way, checking windows of abandoned buildings, and moving on when she realized they had already been picked bare.
Eventually she came across another building, which seemed to be relatively untouched. With no better options, she may as well try her luck here, and move on if needed.
Pushing the door open, she winced as it let out a loud creak. Thankfully, there didn't appear to be anything or anyone else in the building. Looks like she was alone.
Relieved, she continued on her search, lifting objects here and there. Whoever had lived here before must have been a girl, or at least lived with one, as she found not one, but two bikinis. That, or some guy just liked to wear them in his past time. Who knew?
Tucking the items into her bag, she moved for the kitchen. Like usual, the kitchen was stripped bare, and only the empty packaging and containers of said food items remained. However, just out of luck, she was able to find two bottled of water tucked back in one of the shelves. Pleased with her find, she snatched up the water, and headed back to base.

DAY 7
Having misplaced her usual bag, Brie was forced to take one of random bags that were offered up for use. Well, it was better than going out and trying to carry things back in her arms, she supposed. Gearing up, she grabbed the bag, sliding it on over one shoulder before making an exit from the building.Quote: Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 2 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: ReferenceStatus: Hearing is better, ears still sore.

DAY 7
Unfortunately, today she was just off her game. Normally she was enthusiastic, and looked forward to going on these runs, but today.. everything was starting to get to her. In the end, the most she found was yet another bikini (is this all people wear now?) and a very small bottle of water. As much as the bottle of water helped, it was only good for one person. Growing more frustrated, she decided to head back and focus on something else that required less attention.

DAY 8
Another day, another item hunt. Things were getting scarce, and it was getting more and more difficult to locate the necessities by the day. At this rate..
"I need to push out further.."
If she was going to have any success in finding items, it would have to be further than she had dared to venture before this. Either way, she had to be careful.Quote: Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 2 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: ReferenceStatus: Hearing is better, ears still sore.

DAY 8
With less time in the day, Brie arrived at one of the new locations she had decided for herself. Not having time to check the buildings, she figured she would book it to get here tomorrow and check again then. In the mean time, she would search the cars and streets for anything useful.
After hours of searching, she manged to locate a half used package of batteries as well as a bikini. Apparently, bikinis were in abundance these days.
With that done, she headed back to base camp.

Brie had already booked it outside and back to the area she had been before. There had been less time to search the area, but now, at least there was more time to do a proper search of the area, and she made sure to carry her usual bag so that she may hold as many items as possible.Quote: Character's name: Brie Hudson Character's faction: Faction 3 / Apartments Bag size: 4 Character's journal link: HereCharacter's survival stats: ViewBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER: ReferenceStatus: Hearing is better, ears still sore.
