Kalila watched Mizuki's retreating form with a frown. He better rest right after he's done scouting. He's the one doing all the work. Both him and David are the ones that had to carry the extra weight... She thought looking from Mizuki's back to David's, who was talking with her little brother. Kalila looked at the ground, decided it was safe enough to sit and sat with her legs crossed. She held her chin in her palm while the same arm's elbow was on the side facing up of her knee. Ok... We get to the gun store and get as much crap as we can carry. But, we still have to leave enough room for other supplies we would get at the store near Nina's. She planned out in her mind. She had the extra masks and goggles in her backpack for the group left at Nina's house.
Nicholas looked at David like he was absolutely insane. "You can't tell Kali!" He whispered angrily again. Isn't this guy a scientist? Shouldn't he be smart? Nicholas thought irrationally. "Kalila likes Mizuki! He's a good guy ...Might even be good for her. I'm not tattling on him. He gets a warning." He said plainly. "If I tattle on him Kalila might not like him anymore... That... Just isn't right..." He said, though when he said it he sounded confused. Weird... he thought, not able to explain the feeling to himself evenWasn't I just pissed at him. Wait! I still am... But not enough for that... Aw f*ck it. "Well anyway, he's a dude... And as dudes we know what it's like to see a hot chick. It can't be helped." He said crossing his arms. "I shot him a warning glance... That should be enough. If it's not, and next time it is not an accident, I have the full right to be as pissed as I want." He declared with a frown.
As soon as David responded a small pause occured among the two. Before it became awkward Mizuki summoned Nicholas over. Nicholas nodded and his face was emotionless. "Yeah sure..." He said as he arrived by Mizuki's side, and as soon as he did the older one spoke. As he spoke Nicholas felt something stir inside of him. Sh*t... This is all Kali's fault. He thought as the emotion overwhelmed him. His anger at Mizuki was completely forgotten. Dammit Kali! Sympathy is stupid! Why did you instill it into me! his mind yelled angrily. "Aw dude... I'm sorry." He said truthfully, scratching the back of his head at the awkwardness of the situation. "It's just..." Nicholas started. He was reminded of all the reasons he was doubting Mizuki. His sanity is still an issue... or he's infected or something. My sister is depending on him like a crutch. She's in love with the guy so if he gets hurt she'll get upset. he thought, trying very hard not to let his eyes roll. He looked up her dress! But it could have been an accident.... But he might have enjoyed it! Well... He's a guy. If it were some hot chick I would have too... I guess... He was arguing with himself. He was a bit young, not completely obbssessed with girls yet, so he couldn't exactly comprehend all the way.
"Alright..." Nicholas said starting over. "You did absolutely nothing wrong. I'm just being a douche." He said finally. He jabbed his thumb over his shoulder to ladder. "That was an accident, right?" he asked with a nervous smile. "Because if it wasn't I'm going to have to punch your face in." He said jokingly, but he was serious. "Oh... and I think you're hiding something important from us." he said with a shrug. "But..." He said looking over Mizuki's should. "I was just pissed for no reason. I'm calm now. I'm sorry dude... Next time just punch me in the face." He said with a laugh, refering to the tauting only a few hours earlier, though it felt like a life time. He patted Mizuki on the shoulder.
"Yeah... Yeah we can!" Nicholas said just as loudly, looking at the jump. He was good at catching that kind of cover up act, because he was a master planner at that kind of thing. After all the whole 'knock Mizuki out after Kalila semi-seduces him' was his idea. He smirked at how easy the jump was and looked over his shoulder at his older sister. "Though... I'm not sure Kalila can make it." He said, sounding serious, though in his mind he was laughing his @$$ off.
Kalila gasped. "Really?" She asked worriedly, standing back up and trotting towards the two young men. I don't want to have to bother Mizuki anymore! she pouted in her mind. As she arrived at the scen and saw the jump she frowned. "Nicho, you @$$hole..." She said to her little brother narrowing her yes. But then she giggled and smacked him on the arm. They teased each other like this constantly. Despite that they were still very close compared to normal brothers and sisters. It's a must between siblings to tease each other. Nicholas laughed and shook his head.

"Ok, I won't tell... Gees." David said sounding more like an eight year old then a grown man. He followed Nicholas, and stopped realising that they could think he was eaves dropping on them. After they were finished talking, David followed once again, he jumped onto the next building, resisting the urge to roll, because of alex being on his back. When he hit the ground, his legs shook from the shock of the landing with the extra weight for a second, but he was fine.
David looked across the roofs at the store Kalila pointed to. "Well lets get a move on." David said. He walked right next to Mizuki, and said, "After you." David may not of liked Mizuki much, but he did think of him as the leader of this group. David got ready for anything. You never knew, there could be infected even up on top of the roofs, not likely, but it was possible.

He smiled relaxing against the wall. He enjoyed hearing about Nina's life before all the troubles. If all her friends were like Kalila and Nicholas then it they were probably great people. He wished he could meet them. He spared a thought for there safty. Maybe they would meet up with them. Any thing was possible and so far many of her friends had turned up. When the timer went off he was slightly startled. But when the smelss started to come out his mouth started to water. It had been ages since he had last had spagetti. The standard quick meal of his mom when she was in a hurry. It reminded him of life before and made the problems of today seem to fade away, like things might actually work out. Logically he doubted this but still. The nostalgic sents reminding him of home made his fears diminish. "I agree it smells great. It reminds me of the smell of my mom's spagetti."

[sorry about the no posting. I was at my friend's house....no internet. sad ] "It's alright Nina! I'm not hungry!" Reshion yelled back, picking up his gun from the table he was next to. He felt the cool steel, and cocked it. One solitary bullet flew out of it, and he caught it in the air. Hollow point. Gets the job done.
Smiling, he ejected his clip and put it back into the gun. He heard the satisfying snap and stood up, his knees cracking slightly. He walked over to the window and looked into the desolate street.
"It's amazing. All in one fell swoop. Two girls hate me, and my parents are dead. Not to mention the fact I'm STILL shirtless!" He screamed, putting the gun into his pants, near his navel.
He walked into Nina's dad's room, and seeing all of the boxes, he rummaged through one, hopefully finding a shirt.
"Come on.....come on." He said quietly, finding a shirt. It had to be an undershirt, because it wasn't too small or too large.
Plain black. Just like Reshion wanted. He put it on, his pistol making a slight bulge in the shirt. He closed the box and turned off the light, making sure to close the door as he left.
Biting his lip, he paced the bar room floor. "What to do.....what to do." He said, retrieving the small bottle from his pocket. He popped two pills and poured the rest in his hand.
Eight left. He had at least two more bottles in his backpack, and God knew where his sidepack was.
Putting the bottle into his pocket, he blinked. He let go of his lip from his teeth and sniffled.
"Now, to get a vehicle. It wouldn't be wise to just cram all into Terry's car." He walked to the bar and grabbed the pad and pen that was there.
On it, he wrote:
Nina. Do not think I am an idiot for this. I am going to get another car for us. It wouldn't be wise for all of us to cram into Terry's car. Nor would it be safe. I'm thinking ahead for all of us, and I WILL be back. I promise. I'm going to take three bottles of vodka with me and a lighter. For safety reasons.
I will see all of you later.
P.S. Sorry about the clips.
-Reshion.
He tossed the pen to the side and put the pad pn a table that Nina could easily see. Dumping the bag of clips onto the table, he put the three bottles of vodka in his bag, and fished in his pockets for his lighter. Snapping it, it lit brightly.
"Perfect." Reshion said, smirking. He took a deep breath and grabbed 10 clips off the table, and his two bottles of medicine and put them into his bag. He clecked his pistol for ammo, which was full, then, strapping the bag closer to his body, he went for the fire escape.
"Lord, let this be the right decision." He said, climbing down the first set of the rungs. "I have to do this." He whispered, walking to the second set of rungs. "This is the right decision." He said, reaching the last set of rungs. He hopped to the ground and stood up. "I hope." He said once again, jogging into the darkness.
He crept into the darkness, hoping that zombies woundn't see him.
"Now, to make sure that I can get this car." He said, hearing the moaning of several zombies near him. He spun around, picking up a 2x4, hoping that he could silence the zombies quickly. He felt a cold arm on his left arm, and he wrenched away, whacking the zombie in its sick face, killing it.
He spat on it, cursing. Then he spun around, looking at the several zombies lurch their way towards him. One was close to him, so he rolled out of the way, scraping his arm.
"That has tetanus written all over it." He said cynically, pulling out his pistol. "Screw the zombies." He growled, walking over to the close zombie.
Just like he hoped, the zombie opened his mouth, and Reshion inserted his pistol in its mouth.
"Sorry, no food here for you today guy." He said, pulling the trigger.
The sound was muffled, and the bullet logded itself in the wall behind the fallen zombie.
Reshion took aim at the next zombie and fired.
Blam. Missed. He fired more shots, some missing, some hitting in non vital areas.
"Dammit! Wasting ammo!" He said through clenched teeth, finally dispatching the zombies.
He ejected the clip and went into his bag, grabbing three more. He loaded his pistol and put the two other clips in the waistline of his pants.
He went over to a zombie with fresh clothes and ripped the shirt off of the zombie. Checking it, he saw that the shirt was fresh. He cleaned his wound and walked over to a building away from Nina's.
If zombies hunted by smell, and Reshion hoped that they did, he rubbed the shirt on the wall, smearing the blood on the wall.
"I'm putting all my eggs in one basket, but hopefully this works." He said, dropping the shirt.
Creeping down the street, he saw two Honda Civics and a Mazda 626. The latter car was something Reshion did not want to drive, but he checked it. Empty tank. He cheacked the first Honda. Half empty. The last car HAD to have over 3/4 of a tank. He crept over to it, and seeing a solitary zombie, he sneaked behind it and snapped it's neck.
"Something my dad tought me is useful." He said, smirking. He checked the car's tank. Full!
Reshion was giddy, but here was the problem. Getting in. He put the pisto to the window and put it away immediately.
"No 'effing way." He said, looking down the street. Zombies milled about the DIY store, and Reshion tugged at the handle. No dice.
He thought for a second and walked over to the zombie he killed.
Checking it's pockets, he found the keys to a Honda Civic.
"How lucky." He said cynically, opening the car doors. He checked the backseat and found nothing.
"Thank God." He smiled, and heard moaning coming from behind him.
Thinking quickly, he pulled the seat back and hid under the steering wheel.
They hadn't seen him, so Reshion thought it best to wait until they left.

At such close a range Nicholas would be able to see beyond the slight sheen that was cast over Mizuki's goggles and look into the curved eyes that lay behind them.
Deep, dark hues of chocolate brown that watched him intently with a sort of mutual understanding as he watched the youth tumbling over his words.
There was nothing patronising in that gaze, Merely a concerned paitience and a silent will that wished Nicholas would confront him so he could rectify whatever he had done.
Nicholas must not be used to standing up for himself Mizuki pondered, Either that or there is a butt load of problems he wants to addresss and is having issues wording them. . .
When Nicholas placed blame on himself Mizuki blinked in suprise, frowning gently.
What the ********> He was confused. True, Nicholas was being a bit harsh - what with death glares and steely silences. But no one did that without a reason, did they?
Nicholas obviously had a problem and Mizuki wanted to know what it was now, more than ever.
Mizuki followed the thumbs direction with a slight frown. What? What was he pointing at? His eyes roaved over the general direction of the indication and came to rest on the top handles of the fire ladder. Bemused he was about to open his mouth to ask what Nicholas had meant. Then it struck him. His eyes widened and, hidden by his mask, his mouth fell open.
He snapped his head back and stared at his shoes as if they were suddenly very interesting.
He coughed nervously.
"When you climb a ladder," He said, his voice quiet and shaky. It was clear that Mizuki felt very badly about the whole situation and was trying to explain - as much for his own sake as Nicholas', "you look up to see where next rung will be. I forgot that she was above me for a moment - and forgot that skirts don't have bottoms." He cleared his throat again and rubbed the back of his head roughly. "Sorry." He said quickly. "If it helps I didn't see much. I looked away as soon as I realised."
As Nicholas posed that Mizuki was keeping secrets, he raised his head again, staring out across the rooves. All nervousness from moments before was banished and his eyes were uplifted slightly in the way that Nicholas would know he was smiling.
Sharp kid. Better keep an eye on him Mizuki thought cheerfully.
"We all have secrets don't we?" He said casually to Nicholas, turning to face him. "Part of human nature. Sometimes we like to keep things to ourselves. Scared of what others will think, or maybe we just like to know that we know something everyone else doesn't." He gave a slight sniff and turned to gaze out across the rooves again. "Silly really. But there we are."
He reviewed his own casual summings up. Basically he had tried to communicate with Nicholas that everyone was entitled to their secrets and to let it lie - whilst gently trying to enforce the fact that the 'secret' he was keeping from everyone was nothing of great importance: or maybe we just like to know that we know something everyone else doesn't.
At the notion of punching Nicholas he laughed gently. "We'll save that for when we need an extra dose of Adrenaline, yeah? Right now I'd say we were pretty high on it."
Mizuki smiled and shook his head in what he thought to be a mature amused but disapproving way as the two siblings play fought over the prank. He was definately the grown up here and had to make sure he was the responsible one - for all of them.
Mizuki was rudely interrupted into the reality that he was not, technically, the adult here as David jumped across to the other roof.
By going first he had undermined Mizuki's authority as unspoken Leader of the group. Mizuki noticed David wince slightly on impact and smirked bitterly. Yeah, hope that hurt you cheeky son of a b***h.
He blinked, his brow furrowing slightly. He'd suprised himself. He didn't realise that he could be so maleovlant.
He clicked his tongue against the back of his teeth. He must be getting hungry again. Sure enough his stomach growled feebly in response to the thought.
Ignoring it he turned to Kalila.
"When you land, I want you to roll like I told you too. Land. Push up from the balls of your feet and roll over your shoulder okay? I'll do it as I land and I want you two to do it too. It'll lessen the shock of impact and, especially in longer falls, will prevent damage to the shins and knee joints."
He laughed at himself. By God, he was turning into his father. Only a kinder - more forgiving father . . that didn't hit his pupils with a bamboo stick everytime they got it wrong.
Saddened by the memory, he could feel the image of a bullet ripping through his fathers skull teasing at the back of his mind - nibbling constantly at his sanity. Shocked at realising just how delicate his grip on sanity was he said no more and taking a few steps back, did a short run up and jumped across.
He now understood that his sanity rested completely on the shoulders of Distraction. The images he had forced into the darkest, deepest recesses of his mind were the hammer threatening to smash through the thin sheet of his sanity. As long as he was distracted from them, forgot them even - he would be fine.
He delighted in the cool night air brushing sharply against the little of his skin that was exposed. It was short lived. He landed seconds later. He dropped into a crouch seconds before actually impact. The second her felt hard ground touch the soles of his feet he rose up onto the balls of his feet and pushed off. Using the momentum of the fall, the roll came easily. He went over his shoulder, touching back down to ground again with his shoulder blade and the curve of his back before completeing the roll on his feet. Standing up he took a few steps forwards to use up the last of the momentum and brushed himself off.
He refused to even look in Davids direction. Neither did he wait to check if Kalila and Nicholas made it alright. He had become irritable again.
And hand in hand with any symptoms of Rage came the nagging sensations of Hunger. Despite earlier promises to himself he could feel it begining to intensify.
He grunted to himself and reached the edge of the roof. He could see a network of allies below.
Taking rooves now would be pointless. hey would need to descend into the ally below them now, follow it to the next right and follow that out onto the main street. A short walk but more dangerous than ever.
Across the road from that would be the arms store - and there was no guarenteeing what state it would be in. . .

Reshion pulled out his pistol. He cocked it, and put the keys in the ignition. He sniffed and sat up. The zombies were gone for the moment, and he buckled his seat belt.
He put the stick shift into reverse and pushed the pedal down. He reversed quickly, and all in one move, he spun around and put the car into drive. Hesped down the street and turned into the alleyway where Nina's apartment was. He stepped out and grabbed his bag. Running up the hood of the car he lept to the first rung of the fire escape and began to climb.
He got up to the second rung when he felt a hand grasp his ankle. Shouting out, he dropped his backpack, which landed on the car. He had hit his head on the pavement, which started to bleed. He sprung up and pulled out his pistol, which the zombie whacked out of his hand.
The pistol clatttered on the wall, and hit the ground.
Reshion pushed the zombie over and mounted him.
"You're dead!" He screamed, the blood on the back of his head and matted his hair.
He headbutted the zombie, and began to pound him into the ground with his fists.
Breathing hard, Reshion grabed his pistol and his bag. His fists were bloody and the wound on the back of his head was hetting worse by the minute. He hopped up the ladder, putting his backpack on and began to climb up the fire escape.
The cool night air whisked at Reshion's wound, making him shiver.
"I have to get inside." He said, feeling his strength draining. He made it to the first landing of the fire escape, and preceded to the second part of the fire escape. "Gotta make it." He said, getting to the last part of the fire escape. "I'm gonna faint." He said, making it into the bar area.
"But I did it." He said, grabbing the pad and the pen he left on the table.
Under the previous message he wrote, he put:
I did it...
And fainted.

[DX My comp had a virus, sry! dX]
Eri blinked. "Hn..?" She said, her eyes dialated. She had been feeling ill since around six minutes after she ate the chocolate, and had spaced out to try to ease the pain. She looked at Ada drowsily. "Uhm..." she said quietly. "I was cut by a knife.." She had ignored Nikita's question about her social life in fear of having to answer it. She was bullied constantly in her younger years, so she wanted to avoid the subject of her school life. being an 8 year old in 10th grade was difficult. She was in her third year of college and was looking forward to the day she held up that diploma...but as she said....it was all a dream now.... She got dizzy, her head was feeling light for some reason. She looked at Nikita, then suddenly she fell to the ground unconscious.

((I'm so sorry everyone for posting after longer intevals...The new school year has started for me. I'm a junior in high school... So this year will be pretty tough for me.))
"Oh man..." Nina said with a slow smile. "We're in the subject of parental specialties now?" She asked with a little playful challenge in her voice. "My dad cooked the best puerto Rican food... Ever!" She said with a fond smile. "Oh... Kalila's dad..." She laughed. "He can cook Indian and middle eastern food... It is so good." She looking over everyone in the kitchen. Reshion had been missing for an extensive period of time. As if to respond to Nina's thoughts there was a loud thud from upstairs. "Holy crap!" Nina blurted out and, with a slight adrenaline rush, leaped out of her chair. Her mind raised on the possiblilities of what the noise could have been. Images of zombies invaded her mind, until she remember Terry and Jain, then Reshion, and finally Kalila, Nicholas, and Mizuki. She calmed and looked to the rest of the people in kitchen with a sheepish smile. "Ha... It's probably someone who's come back... Alive." She added the last word as an after thought. "I'll be back." She said with a nod.
Nina quickly left the kitchen, throught the dining room, passed her dad's room and went up the stairs. She turned to the left to get to the bar room, because that is where the sound had sounded like it came from. As she poked the door open she saw Reshion on the floor. She slowly walked to him and crouched down. Oh good... He's alive. She thought with relief seeing he was still breathing and his skin still had color. She dragged him over to the wall and leaned him against it. As she stood up straight again and went to leave the room she notices the pad of paper had been written on. She quickly read through it and her eyes bugged out. Unbelieving of it, she read it again. "Good job Reshion..." She mumbled. She took the note with her and went back downstairs. He can rest... I'll share the news with everyone else. she thought as she arrived into the kitchen.
To get everyones attention she smacked the pad of paper on to the paper loudly. The clap eched through the kitchen. "Read this you guys..." She said with a grin.
Back on the building tops, Nicholas just nodded his head to Mizuki's response. Secrets... That he's not going to tell us? Fine... He wouldn't put us in harms way fro no reason right? He thought to himself. Right after that is when he had summoned his sister over for his joke and the rest of the things that occured afterwards.
Kalila was pinching her her little brother's face, while he tried to pry her off, when Mizuki had addressed her. Instantly she released Nicholas and paid full attention to what the second oldest of the group had to say. Nicholas seized the oppertuniy and punched her arm one last time before also paying attention to Mizuki. Kalila completely ignored him the cheap shot and nodded her head to prove to Mizuki she had heard what he said.
Then the young man jumped across the gape between the buildings and did a perfect example of what he told Kalila to do.
"Ah... It's nice to have visual aid." Kalila mumbled to herself as she examined the jump.
"Pervert..." Nicholas mumbled with a laugh. The word had already been in his mind and out his mouth, he just spit it out once more.
"What!?" Kalila asked, snapping her head to look back at her younger brother. There was no sign of a blush on her face. If there had been then Nicholas could assume she was fraining innocence... But she wasn't.
"It's a joke..." Nicholas said with a frown.
Kalila nodded, not finding it funny at all. She really liked Mizuki. Don't get her wrong, Mizuki's body was stunning, but she liked him too much and respected him to much for something so petty, in her mind.
"Jump already!" Nicholas said impatiently trying to ease the tension. His sister was, after all, extremely easy to anger.
Kalila ran back for a running start and ran forward. She launched herself of the edge with a powerful push with her legs and mimicked Mizuki's movements. She kicked off a little hard, thus rolling twice with her dress's skirt matching the movement. The clanking of the Katan in its sheath could be heard as it hit the ground twice. She stopped rolling, slightly dizzy, sitting on her bottom. Her legs fanned out and her hands supporting her on the ground and she tried to make the world stop turning so much.
"You looked like Samus... Or Sonic or something!" Nicholas said with a grin. "The skirt made it look all 'wooshy' and stuff..." he explained, using his index finger to make a circle in the air to describe the rolling. Kalila looked over he shoulder and smiled. She couldn't really know exactly where he was, the world was still spinning.
After a while, when in Kalila's mind, the world stilled and she stood up. She looked at her brother on the roof across and summoned him over with an arm movement.
"I'm coming, I'm coming..." he said waving her off. He touched the gun on his back and pulled it off him quickly. "Catch this." He ordered and threw the gun to his sister. Kalila gasped at the suddeness of the action and caught it tightly. She winced and look down at the gun. She sighed in relief as she saw the safety had indeed been one. Nicholas also ran back for a running start, ran forward, leaped, tacked as he almost landed, and landed rolling. He rolled once and attempted to stand up, falling right back down on his bottom. He was dizzy and he landed preety hard on his shoulder, but thanks to the roll it wasn't that serious. It was one of those injuries that don't hurt at first, at all. But, the next day when you wake up, it hurts like a b*tch.
Kalila walked to her brother and lifted him up with a yank of his arm. He stood a little wobbly at first but grabbed his sister arm to steady himself. She walked over to the edge where Mizuki stook. She stood right next to him and glanced out at what he was looking at. She could see the gun store that they had been trying to reach almost from the beginning of this outbreak, at least for Kalila and Nicholas. Kalila could see the sign of the Gun store from where they stood. In big, lit up words it read "Lev's Gun Shack."
Apparently Nicholas read it too because he turned to his sister. "You know... There're rumors about that store supplying the Russian Mafia here in New York..." he said with a smirk.
Kalila glanced sideways at Mizuki and remembered him saying something about silencers in the back. Those are illegal, right? she thought and mumbled to her brother still looking at the Japanese young man. "Wouldn't suprise me..." Kalila said with a shrug. She smiled to herslef and looked back out at the area. "I see no reason to stay on roof top." She pointed out to Mizuki, tugging at his sleeve. "But there is an allyway below us... What do we do?" She asked looking up at him.
"David... Is this safe?" Nicholas asked the scientist with a cocked eyebrow. He wanted to test the man's intelligence. It was just so hard for him to believe this man was basically a genious.
"Wa-wa-wa-wait, wait wait." Kalila said quickly, not stuttering, just emphasizing the need for everyone to be quiet. She put her index finger to her lips in the universal sign for it. "Is... Is that a bass?" She asked with confusian etched in her voice.
"Kalial... You just miss your precious metal." Nicholas said rolling his eyes but listening closely anyway. His eyes wided when he heard it too. "Oh! You meant bass sound in music... I thought you meant bass like the instrument by it's self. Yeah yeah... I hear it." He said putting his hand to his ear. "I can't tell what it is from though... Maybe it's some type of hum to a generator... or someone died listening to Rap CD in their car." He said with a smile. "Maybe the car stereo's still on. What other type of musci would effect the speakers with a thud like that." He said crossing his arms. "Their's a bigger percentage of those listeners here..." He said looking about the area. "You still wish it was metal though." He told his sister.
"You wouldn't mind it either."
"So?"

// Really? I got a week to go! T__T //
Taking the note, she read what Reshion had wrote, and shook her head.
"What an idiot, but it worked."
Stalking over to the window, she noticed Reshion passed out on the floor, and lifted him up to the table.
"s**t, Reshion, what the hell did you do?"

Garath considered if Reshion had made a good desicion while he ran to get the medical suplies. It was stupid to leave the group without telling anyone. But getting another car was a good idea. But Reshion should have waited for some one else to come with him. The group could be wittled down to nothing if they kept going off alone. But it had worked. Reshion had done a good thing, and something that helped helped every one. Reshion had finally started to unmake Garaths impression of him. Maybe Reshion was an ok guy Garath thought. Now they just had to make sure Reshion stayed ok. With all that blood garath hadn't been able to see how serious the injuries were. He had reached the area with the first aid and grabbed some bandages, wraps, rubbing alcohol, and stiches. he ran back down carying them. "Some one wipe of his hands and see if under that blood he's been injured. ALso could some one get some fresh water? We'll want to wash of the blood of the rest of him to see how bad the injuries are." He started wiping of some of the blood off Reshion's head with one of the clothes and some rubbing alcohol. It seemed to be where the blood was originating from.

Reshion always loved the smell of rubbing alcohol. He thought that it wafted into his nostrils, and stung his nose, making his eyes water.
It was the sting of the alcohol on his head that woke him up.
"OW!!!!!!! Owowowowowowow!!" He screamed, springing off of the table.
He rubbed his head, saying, "Oooowwww! That hurt Garath! But thanks. How did I get on the table?" He asked the group quizzically.
"Doesn't matter. If you're wonder why I didn't tell anyone, it's because I didn't wany ANY of you exposed to the danger." He said, smiling.
"I hit the back of my head on the pavement. A zombie pulled me off the ladder, and my arm is scraped bad. And my knuckles are raw from what's left of the zombie down there." He said, showing them all of the wounds. "Im surprised you didn't hear my gunshots. I was gone about 45 minutes." He said, wiping his eyes. "Hand me the alcohol Garath. I would like to do my wounds myself. Nothing personal, I just don't want you to haphazardly poke at the back of my head. But can you help mw wrap it though?" He asked him sincerely.
Reshion took his bloody shirt off. He placed it into a trash can, and he examined his chest. "Wow. seems that this was like the only region that wasn't damaged." No doubt, Reshion had an amazing body. He stayed in shape, and he was extremely agile when the time was right. He did a pseudo hero pose and said, "You all think I'm an idiot for not asking for help huh?" He said, hanging his head down in shame. He placed his pistol on the bar, and sat on a stool. "Does anyone have a needle? I need to sew my arm. It's opened." He said, checking his wound.
It was amazing that he wasn't bitten. Maybe there was an ulterior motive for his luck.
"I was trapped in a car for half an hour, listening to zombies moan. I thought I was going to die. But something made me keep going." He said, looking at the three people, "It was guaranteeing the safety of all of you guys. Even if I would have got bitten, I still would have made it here with the car. I would have stayed by you guys' side until I thought I was going to turn, then I would have killed myself, just to keep all of you safe. But thankfully, I didn't get bit. I don't know why I'm still alive, but I am. Thank you Crimson, for saving me when I fainted in the crowd of those zombies. You took them all out and saved me. But then I said something stupid to get you to hate me. I'm sorry. If there was anything to do to gain your trust, then I'll do it. Garath, you helped me by letting me know you were there when you came after me. You have helped me everytime I had a muscle spasm, and all i did was treat you like s**t. For that, I apologise. Nina," He said, turning to her, "I'm sorry of bringing a lot of drama and all of that into your home. Thank you for accepting me. I know that I haven't been much help to you, but I had to do this one this for all of us. It was reckless, but for the reason that I knew that all of you would be safe if I did get the Honda for us. But there is one thing, actually two things to ask: One, I want to gain all of you guys' trust, and two: can I drive when we leave? I really want to, plus, I know this town like the back of my hand." He said, smiling.

"Thanks Crimson, for bringing him down." Nina said with a nod. She watched lovingly as Garath got to work. He's such a caring person... Even to Reshion... She thought with a slight mental sneer.
When Reshion was speaking Nina was at the sink with a bucket, filling it up with water. She set it next to Reshion, now that he said he didn't want Garath cleaning his wounds. "Yes you're right. It was reckless." She said shaking her head slowly. "But you did a good thing... Your reward is driving the car. But you d*mn well better be a good driver or I'll kill you myself and take the steering wheel from you. I won't have this group die in a car accident instead of trying to survive..." She said half-jokingly.
Garath had needles, so Nina didn't bother with saying anything about it. Nina didn't sew, Kalila did, it was one of her specialties, making all the outfits she wore and stuff. "Oh..." Nina piped up after a moment of silence. "Apology accepted... I'm glad you chose to." She said with a slight bitter tone. It was barely there, after all he had apologized full-heartedly. She looked at the exposed part of his body, his face, and then his body again. "You should probably find a new shirt too." She said looking away from him. "Oh... and if this Zombie thing ever rolls over... You owe my dad a shirt." She said with a laugh.
Nina turned back to the sink and washed her hands, because they were still bloody from when she had moved Reshion earlier. she turned back to the food and moved them as far away from the group as possible so nothing got contaminated.
"I say we should eat now and leave he rest fpr the people coming." she said turning back to the group. "Specially you Reshion... You have to be hungry from what you've just been through. You two too..." She said looking from Garath to Crimson. "The whole time you guys have been at my house none of you have eaten. I ate a protien bar earlier with Kalila and Nicholas." she said with a nod. "But still... My stomach is empty again..." She said with a laugh. "So once everyone gets cleaned up... I say: eat!" she said with a grin.

Beaming at Nina, she nodded, going to the kitchen sink to clean off her hands. As the blood slowly washed away down the drain, Crimson sighed, wondering if any boy she knew would grow up.
Stupid, boy brains.
Then, smiling, she went in the fridge and removed a special dish that she hadn't told Nina she was making. it was covered in foil, and it was chilled, so she went in the dining room, grinning, setting it down in the middle.
"This is for after dinner."
She said with a small wink to Nina.

[[woot! JUNIOR!! hmm... ahiru takashi...your computer had a virus. and your posting on this VIRUS OUTBREAK RP. coincidence? OR JUST PLAIN FREAKY?!?!?!]]
Nikita could barely hear what Ada and Eri were talking about. Gosh. Girls can never shut up. He thought. All he could make out over the music was that Ada wanted to leave soon. Good. I'm getting increasingly sick of this city. He was slightly banging his head to the beat of the music, but suddenly stopped as Eri looked at him and fell to the floor. He immediately ran to her, instinctively got on his knees and cradled her head on his lap. s**t. She was only bitten a couple of minutes ago. How could this be already affecting her? He thought, covering himself with his long hair so Ada couldn't see the worry written on his face. "She's fainted." He said nervously to Ada. "She hasn't eaten. She probably passed out because of hunger." He still didn't feel that Ada should be informed about Eri's bite wound. Ada would kill her without even thinking about it. But it's gonna be harder to conceal her from Ada if she keeps freaking out on me.
Ada stared at Eri as she answered her. "I'm glad you got that cleaned and covered." She said to Eri. "Don't want that getting infected..." But she didn't get to finish her sentence. Ada stopped talking when she saw Eri drop to the floor. She watched Nikita as he knelt beside her, amazed by his intelligence. "She's fainted? No! What gave that away?!" She screamed to her cousin. Dammit! Why'd we even take this girl in? She thought. She was already upset because the zombies had broken into her store, now she had to deal with this sick kid. "Listen. I'm sick of telling you what to do." She screamed. She was starting to lose control over the words that were coming out of her mouth. "I've had it with this chick. She is not my responsibility. I protect myself and my friends. And that don't include her unless I say it does." She yelled as she walked towards Eri. She lifted her and placed her head on her shoulder as if Eri was a child. "I'm taking her downstairs to wake her up. You stay up here and kill any zombies that come nearby. Don't f*ck around." She said. While still carrying Eri, she went downstairs and placed Eri on a small counter that was connected to the one that was now blocking the door. She grabbed her water bottle and poured some water onto her hand. She flicked her fingers and splashed Eri's face. She stared and waited for a reaction. "Come on, kid. Wake up!"
