Fall into Ashes

[InsaneTruth]

"We are good with small, the children just want to feel safe again," she told him standing. "You are a hero coming for us,"

 

[Ricia]

"Sorry... " Rick said standing again, "I don't think I'm a hero... It was more the other guy's idea.." Rick said a bit flustered and guilty.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"you still came," she told him tucking in the one girl


Kai peeked in "all well?" he asked

 

[Ricia]

"Yes... they can be moved." Rick told Kai, "Everything ok on your side?" Rick asked.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Yeah," Kai said "all siblings accounted for," he told Rick. "thank you,"

 

[Ricia]

Rick nodded, "Then... you should call Sage and Kat.. and get them to go out and get food and prepare for... all this." Rick told Kai, motioning to all the kids, "I don't think these kids have eaten for a full day.."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"They should be back in the safe house now," Kai told Rick and pulled out the walkie. "I admit I'm worried they are in the tunnels still,"

 

[Ricia]

"It's been almost two days. They should have been back already." Rick told Kai, looking over at Helly a moment.

 

[InsaneTruth]

The nurse was tending to the sleeping girl as Kai hit the walkie "Death Shadow come in," Kai said.


Kat jumped awake hearing the walkie things had been so quiet.

 

[Ricia]

Sage jumped as well, she had fallen asleep again. She looked outside, it was day time. Sage fumbled around for the walkie in a hurry, "Death here, over."


Rick thought she sounded a bit off.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"We got a bunch of kids in bad shape," Kai said "I'll need you and shadow to go back out for more food," he assumed they were home as she answered.

 

[Ricia]

"Uh.. Ok we can do that." Sage said, "We ehm..." Sage looked to Kat with a long pause. "Should I tell him?" She whispered to Kat.


Rick looked at the women, "It's going to be a hard walk.. we need things for wrap around the kids mouths. We are traveling through the sewers."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Sewers?" She asked shocked. "If... it's a way out," she nodded.


"Sage... what happened?" Kai asked her pause talk qued him in "Death are you and Kat ok?"


"We got to now," Kat sighed he blinked "I... can see light now,"

 

[Ricia]

"Nothing. We'll grab what you need. Don't worry. We'll fill you in when you get back. Estimated time?" Sage asked Kai.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Two days at most one is more realistic," Kai said he was streatching it only because the number of people he'll be transporting "We got two who were bitten, both are still alive neither turned,"

 

[Ricia]

"Ok... uh be safe ok? We need to get to work." Sage told Kai.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"call in emergancy," Kai said "good luck, keep each other safe." with that he let the call drop "I got a bad feeling,"

 

[Ricia]

Sage dropped the walkie, "We are so dead..." Sage told Kat.


"Let's just start preparing these people." Rick told Kai, "We have a lot to do."

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kai nodded and went to help Rick prepair the crw for travel in a sewer.


Kat nodded "Yeah. We should start packing up food."

 

[Ricia]

"Kat." Sage put her hand on his chest, "Rest... a bit longer. We have time. Ok?" Sage assured him. "I'll pack the food. I"ll change your bandaging first."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Sage... I'm a liability to you right now, don't make me feel more useless," KAt told her he looked upset.

 

[Ricia]

"You got your eye sight back a bit more, right? I want you to keep resting so you can pull your weight in medicine and food. I need you Kat. So I need you to rest. I need you to rest so I can relay on you more on our way back out." Sage told him, "Rest... we need to move soon." She then smiled a bit, "I'm relived... I'm so happy. That you recovered. Kat you... have no idea how scared I was.." Sage sat down next to him and took out medical scissors to start changing and cleaning the bandages.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kat blinked he listened to her but still he felt so useless "I told you I'd not leave you," he said as she cut the bindings his arm still looked absolutly aweful.

 

[Ricia]

"I wasn't going to leave you either. I would choose to live in this store with you before I would choose to leave you here when you were still alive... other people be damned. I don't care.... You and Kai... you're all I care about." Sage said before taking the bottle of achole and pouring it on the wound again. She felt bad because she was sure it was going to burn. At least it stopped bleeding...

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kat bit his lip to stop from crying out. She couls see the teeth marks imbedded in his arm. "I know, but... I need you to live on too,"
