Fall into Ashes

[InsaneTruth]

Kat hissed "It's ok... it doesn't feel like the last one... this feels like a real wound like from a wild dog," he assured Sage and Kai. "Thank you." he told his helper holding onto the man and walking as well as he could.


"Yes abort, I'll go that way next time," Kai said deciding he'll clear that section when they get Edmond and the new kids to help them.

 

[Ricia]

"I actually remember that bitch. She is very loud. Killed a few exactly like today.. But I guess my one death ear makes me a bit immune to it. I just get a bit dizzy, but not enough to knock me on my feet." He told Kat.


Sage was pacing the bathroom floor. Every bit of her wanted to go get Kat... but everything should be clear on his way back.


Rick made a rounding hand, "We've braked enough. Lets move out. We have a section to clear up."

 

[InsaneTruth]

Ricks team followed his lead a bit more causios with the thought of a new zombie.


"We need to invest in earplugs then," Kat joked lightly.


"The way is clear for you to go back Kat," Kai confirmed.


"Thanks boss, Kai said the way back is for sure cleared," he told the guy.


"Death" Kai asked "can you go on?"

 

[Ricia]

"Yeah..." Sage said not so enthusiastically. Kat and Kai needed comfort and they needed food. Right now clearing those things out for them would help... specially Kai. Kat would be upset if she aborted too just because he got hurt.. but he did get hurt. Was he going to turn. "I can do it.."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"Keep me keyed in," Kai said and went back to screan watching "We are making good progress, Kat made it to be able to seal his area so thers no risk from walkers on the otherside of them. Rick you are close to one of the sealed doors, on your word I'll give you the key code to unlock it," Kai told him. "As for you death you have been making good progress as well, you should finish the main bedrooms soon. Then I want you to head off a bit, I want you to branch to the medical room the one behind the bookcase," he had a decent amount of first aid material they would need.


Ricks men were getting antsey they hated not knowing what was being said to him.

 

[Ricia]

Rick was ignoring him the men for the most part. They had been skittish for most of the venture. Rick eventually made it to the sealed door. When Kai gave the key code, he opened it as well. "Keep your eyes peeled." Rick told the men. "Kill anything that moves."


Sage nodded before coming out of the bathroom, "We are moving out. Kat's team got jumped, so we need to be more contous of the zombies. Don't hesitate to kill. Just kill."

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kai sighed "Sage, kill all these bastards," he told her "every last one,"


"Boss...." Kat sounded almost worried but his voice was quiet.


Rick was clear but of course the door made noise. "Rick a few... torso's are in the next room." he warned "and a group coming from your right,"


Kai was watching out for the teams Kat had an area with blind spots and look what happened, he'd not let Sage get hurt. But clearing out rooms was not to hard a few swings of her sycthe and there went one room cleared.

 

[Ricia]

"With pleasure." Sage told him softly.


Rick stopped his group, "there is a group of people coming from that direction, as soon as you see them open fire. I am going to kill the few zombies on the other side." Rick assured them he had their back.. they had to get his. He didn't want to risk gunshot to alert the coming human team.

 

[InsaneTruth]

The torsos were crawling in quiet thumps they were not as vocal as their walking coumterparts and involved Rick having to get close to the ground to kill them if there were more around he might have been in a jam. His team open fired on the men one got grazed by a bullet and yelped more in fear then pain.


Sage would see a few per open room no real hordes yet.

 

[Ricia]

Rick went to kill them, full sure that the men would focus the fire of the team. He killed the zombies before taking over in a near by closed door way. Before also returning fire.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kai navagated Rick more then sage and within a few more hours he gave them another break Kat was getting medical attention and comanded to rest. Rick had what seemed like groups of ten to twenty almost every few rooms but his team shapped up a bit and went to be a functioning group to defend Rick as he was the front leader.

 

[Ricia]

Rick wasn't the best leader, but he did keep the men in order and he didn't make them take any risks. In fact he was more likely to take the risk himself. However one of their men died from a gunshot wound during another skirmish.


Sage on the other hand was rather wreckless like normal, but it got things done. She and Rick eventually cleared out their entire sections by the end of the day. It was late in night by the time they got back. Sage lost two of her men. However when they got back, Sage immediately ran to Kat.

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kat was asleep in bed his leg wrapped and cleaned Kai took off his headset. "you did very well thank you," Kai told Rick "Please rest, get a good meal in you," he told him and pat his back "and be sure to rest, you've earned it," Kai would go out tomorrow get the kids from the elementary. Then he'd stop rest and get the gang from the safe house. He prayed the power stayed or at least the generators weren't damaged a trip to the power plant would be hell.

 

[Ricia]

Rick nodded, "Hows Kat?" He asked Kai.


Sage climbed into the bed and went to go feel Kat for a fever. She felt terrified thinking he was suffering like he had the first bite.

 

[InsaneTruth]

'He seems to be ok no fever, no swelling, possible infection," Kai said "nothing to sevear he doesn't seem in too much pain," Kai told her.


His skin was normal. He even looked pretty peaceful as he slept.

 

[Ricia]

Sage let out a soft sigh and an upset deep breath. How many times was Kat going to get bitten? She laid down next to Kat, though not quite touching him because she didn't want to desterb his sleep.


Rick nodded, "Alright then. Kat's area and the other area still has to be cleaned out.. however it is safe enough in my opinion to bring the children here. I'm going to go get them tomorrow."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"No, let me go. I was planning to anyway, Kat and Sage will need to stay." Kai said "I've not done much its about time I pull my own weight."


Kat slept his chest rose and fell even ly nothing like last time.

 

[Ricia]

"You've been carrying the leaders tourch. That in itself is not an easy feat." Rick told Kai, "Don't put that position as nothing or I will start to think poorly of your skills as a leader. You need rest as much as us." Rick told him. "You should continue to do what you do best and let me do what I do best."

 

[InsaneTruth]

Kai looked at him "You have faced against us many times Rick, but neither of us truely knows the other yet, nor is this the best place to learn. Will you go alone?"

 

[Ricia]

"No. But I think I will take the two men who came with me today... if they are willing to go out. I was a bit unsure... but they started to shape up to the end of the fighting." Rick told Kai, "I'm not the best leader... I work best soloing.. but I should really not go alone."

 

[InsaneTruth]

"I agree," Kai admitted "to not going alone." He looked at Rick "be safe, take a long distance walkey in case of an emergancy."

 

[Ricia]

Rick nodded before leaving Kai and to talk to the men if they wanted to go out with him the next day. He was not sure if they would even say yes...

 

[InsaneTruth]

They agreed after a bit Rick was better then Kai. Kai went to see Sage "Hey... he's ok," Kai told her

 

[Ricia]

Sage was half hidden under blankets by Kat. When she heard Kai she turned to look at him. She had the communicated face she made when she would try not to cry.

 

[InsaneTruth]

"He's ok," Kai repeated and went to her.
