It was still dark, but the when Ruka woke up, she could see enough to find her way back to the group. she had to do something about those busted lights in the ceiling. there had to be more somewhere in a place as big as this. She was relieved to find that the bag or cans was still with her. But...
Ruka slowly followed Cally throught the darkness. as dizzy as ever, she was now out of sight and Ruka was lost in the lightless hallways. Stomach knotted up and her throat tightened from water depravity before she fell to the ground and lost all consciousness.
Ruka got up to check for any more behind the building "nope we're clea-" she stopped when she saw the blood on Cally. "are you alright??" she asked with wide eyes. "Is clear out here as far as I can tell, but we need to get back inside." She wrapped the bag around her arm and pulled Cally inside.
She mad a good point. "uh well actually..." Ruka bit her tongue and looked to the side nervously before announcing "I actually have no idea how to fight." She had never come this close to a diseased being before. Her stomach knotted up as she stood. She had always been so alert, she had never...
Upon sight, Ruka hissed at the girl "Cally...? are you crazy?? What are you doing with him? he aimed a gun at your head!" Ruka was stunned but also very confused. "I threw the knife at him because he is a psychopath that could have killed either one of us without a second thought. I couldn't...
Just as Ruka had cleared her head, Cally ran out the door with another stranger, at which point, She panicked. She wanted to run but she was afraid the bag of cans would slow her down as well as make noticeable noise. She couldn't leave the bag, but she couldn't stay there much longer. Cally...
She had made it. she smiled with temporary hope. But she had lost her only weapon. Would she return to the group and give them the food regardless of the danger that she had just escaped? Or would she keep running and hope that everything would turn out fine? She couldn't steal from them. But...
"I don't want trouble, heck I don't even want to be here. I just want to live" Well fuck. of course anyone held at gun point would say that. Now that she thought harder about it, why was she even trying? Her eyes flickered to Cally and then the staircase and a smirk came across her face as she...
Ruka heard footsteps behind her. She swung around to look for the source. It couldn't have been any of the others, they were all in the main room downstairs. she dropped the bag behind a corner and moved forward to find the sorce of the noise " who's there?" she asked firmly, flipping her pocket...
Ruka Felt like an outcast, not that she hadn't felt like one her entire life, but this was the one time she thought she was going to possibly make allies. As she wandered through the cold, motionless corridors, she felt empty inside. "Is this place right for me?" she asked herself. "should I...
"Hey does anyone want to scout out the rest of this building?" Ruka looked around the room to see if anyone was still awake to take up her offer. she picked up her pocket knife and leaned against the cold, firm wall as she waited for a response. She was afraid she was interrupting something, she...
Ruka smiled at Noctis "Thats really sweet" she blushed lightly. How was this the same person that got into a fight with Cally over a can of food just an hour ago? as much as she liked talking to him, she had to help tend to the others. "I'll be back." She patted his head before walking towards...
Ruka saw Cally was back, this time with two victims. Her eye grew wider and she looked at them with her jaw slightly dropped. "what on earth happened out there?" Her voice was shook as she jumped up to make room for the newcomers
Suddenly Ruka heard another voice, she took the pocket knife out and placed it on the ground next to her "Over here!" she responded hoping that he could follow her voice. She knew that he wouldn't be a threat. so she did not hesitate to speak up. Her voice was still very unfamiliar, to her. She...
Ruka sat down next to the wounded boy. she wondered if Cally was going to come back, in a world like this you couldn't be sure of anything I'm surprised we haven't encountered more compromised subjects lately, she thought to herself. When Noctis responded, she became slightly confused. She...
"That's a nice name..." This boy reminded Ruka of her brother. she sighed, remembering the incident, screaming and shooting was all she could remember, it made her heart sink in her chest. trying to think of something to take her mind off of it she tried to peek at the drawing that Noctis was...
"will do captain" Ruka smiled at Cally, and set the cat on the floor. walking up to the boy, she noticed the cut was minor, so he should be fine. "so whats your name?" she asked in a comforting tone as she glanced around the room for any sign of danger
"I'll help." Ruka put down her hood and scooped up the little cat and folled her. when they arrived she tore off one sleeve of her long shirt, handing it to Cally, hoping it would benifit in anyway "It's been years since I've seen a group of people like this" she roamed the dark room "forgiving...
"Tsubomi Ruka." She spoke and remembered the canned fruit she had left behind. No use having any regret now. "Why don't we go look for more food? after all, this building is pretty big. there could be a pantry of some kind nearby." Ruka believed it was likely, and there was no use fighting some...
Ruka walked through the dark hallways by herself with no sense of reference, she had gotten separated from the others. after walking aimlessly, the heard the sound of people talking, or rather arguing by the sound of it. she quickly pressed on towards the noise and came across a three strangers...
