Realistic or Modern The Beginning of the End

(As long as you and my other regulars stick around [there's quite a few of you. Love you, everyone!], that's not going to happen for a while longer ;) )
 
It was still early, everyone was simply getting ready; as if they knew trouble was out to get them. West turned to see Tina, asking him as he began to put some supplies in the large truck. He didn't look as well-put together as he had seemed when they first met, his wavy dark brown hair was a tad greasy while his scruff had grown to a permanent 5 o'clock shadow. He wore a loose flannel over the typical farm-boy clothes; he was well-equipped, but he wasn't as prepared emotionally as he had been before. Now the stakes were higher, he had another set of weights on his shoulders; one little girl was enough, but throw in Nick and his posse and it was a balance easily upset by circumstance. The young girl wore what looked like his shirt, she was beside him helping the best she could; which was primarily putting smaller cases away and keeping West entertained with her nonsense smalltalk. "We don't really know yet... I was hoping to get a group talk together so we could discuss it. But... From the looks it's gonn' be Braum and I callin' the shots." His accent was something warm and Southern, not overpowering but still a prominent dialect that ironically was the exact sound you'd expect from him.


Levi was inside, washing the dishes before he packed what they would need; he watched them from the window, he had been the one to insist they left at once. He wasn't stupid, he knew when his time was running short in a place; call it a sixth sense of sorts, but he hardly was wrong when he trusted his gut. Truly, he kept Tina and Nick together by the sheer fact he held that dominion over them; not only was he older, although not by much, but he knew things that they didn't. He seemed unable to crunch under pressure, his dead eyes were constantly calculating and his straightforward mind always found some abstract logical method that saved them from their destinies. His glasses were pristine and clean, he had also delved in the luxury of bathing while they had relatively warm water in the Wellington area; his hair curled just the slightest at the tips as it grew longer, but overall he seemed put together and clean-shaven. It was unexpected in contrast to someone like Nick, who dragged his feet and seemed quick to trigger. Nick had his fair share of thoroughly touching moments in the past month to make up for that initial shock reaction to seeing one another, surprisingly, he felt so at home once he was able to sink back into his comfortable place as the right-hand man.


It was something Levi nearly found despicable, but possibly he was more bitter than anything; he acknowledged that fact. He didn't feel that there was time to hear late-night campfires and reminiscing during watches, he was always alert and aware of these things; but if he had his dear fiancee back, he would surely act like a bit of a fool too. As someone who recognized the deeper meaning to the boys' relationship, he was even comforted by the fact other people still felt so strongly for one another. It hurt him, though, to hear the gentle strum of an acoustic flutter from the bathroom as one voice coaxed the other into a sweet little bluesy song. To be honest, it wasn't anything stunning by any means; but it was definitely the most human he'd felt just listening to two hearts connect as they found joy in the simple presence of one another.

"Hey--.." He reached out and took hold of her arm before she could walk away. ".. I went out during the evenin', and one came at me - I shot the thing a few times. They can't cut through trees, alright?" He smiled weakly and then hugged her. ".. You ain't gonna' be left alone. I promise - I can't die, remember?" He kissed her forehead and then held her close for a moment, sighing. ".. So. Like I said, there's people stayin' just down into the forest. I've figured out that those creatures don't come out until night, so I'd be safe to go down there and scout it out to see if they're decent people or not. What do you say?" He asked. (@TheHarlequinnCat)
 
Staying silent, Connor thinks over what he had just heard. The government created the disease? Possibly. But Dominic being ashamed of his son, unacceptable. "Daniel, don't worry about it. I'll talk to him as soon as we get back with that deer. Hope it's a big buck, I want to mount it's antlers on front of my tent."


(@DrTrollinski)
 
".. Yeah, hopefully it will be... I don't know what's wrong with my dad. He doesn't really talk that much anymore." He sighed and continued following the tracks, looking around the forest. There wasn't anything right now, but behind the boulders and trees, who knew what could have been lurking. (@Beowulf)

(On it.)


"Well he's going to have to talk to me or risk getting a boot up his arse." Connor growled into his beard. "Now focus on the trail, get your head into the hunt. If the wind isn't blowing right, it can probably smell us already." He kept his head on a swivel as he spoke. 'How I pray those things aren't here to.'

Daniel started walking slower and more quietly. He sighed as he looked around and then readied an arrow on his bow. ".. I don't know what's wrong with him... He looks sad, so... Don't upset him. Please?" He begged softly - he looked away from his surroundings to look at Conner again while he spoke, but then looked back. The trails seemed to go in a circle around this area, and then trailed off behind some trees. (@Soul OMU)


 
(@DrCompton - It's your turn to roll the die :3)
 
"Sometimes, you have to shake them by the neck to make them see sense." Connor said to him. "Hold up, I don't like the look of these tracks. Now deer can be smart, buy I doubt they are that smart." Nocking an arrow of his own, he slowly walks towards the tree. "But stay close behind me, just in case."


(@DrTrollinski )
 
".. It could have just been eating what it could off the ground... It's only a circular track." He whispered as he looked off at the tree. ".. I'll take the shot if it's there... It can't be anythin' else. The tracks are deer, and if it was infected, which we haven't seen yet, it wouldn't be that smart... Would it?" He asked. (@Soul OMU)
 
"Think about our latest infected. Those things are pretty damn smart. They think like a pack, though. This one is by it's self. It could be a deer, or it could be an infected. You have to especially careful in these times." he said as he creeped ever closer, voice dropping lower and lower as he approached the tree.
 
".. Yeah, I guess." He said as he nocked the arrow and pulled it back a little. He sneaked up towards the three with Conner but then froze as he heard movement. A deer slowly walked out from behind the tree - female, adult. Daniel pulled the arrow back and took a chance shot - the neck. He released the arrow and it flew forward - right into the side of the neck and out the front. The deer kicked and struggled as blood sprayed from its throat, but soon it fell to the ground and slowly died down. (@Soul OMU)


 
(I'm tired of sitting up for no reason. It's 4am. I probably won't be able to sleep, but whatever. Night.)
 
(I told you I was working, also that last post had nothing to do with me.)


 
Jenna took another nacho as she thought deeply about what he said. "Hmm... Well I think we should try and get Alex and Hunter, and Caitlyn over for his party, along with all his other friends that he's made from the park and throw him a big party with games and fun activities." She said while eating her nacho and sipping her wine. (@DrTrollinski)
 
(I assumed you weren't busy. As you said you were doing that thing and I checked your activity before I posted to ensure I wouldn't be bothering you. I saw you'd been active in other places so I thought you were done. I'm sorry I was mistaken. I didn't deny that you were working either, not once. I wasn't tagging you for the last post - I tagged you for the previous one, refer to the upper part of this message for my reason for tagging you. Didn't think you were busy. I'm extremely tired, and my last post was true - I wasn't doing anything, so now I'm in bed and on my phone. And, guess what, I can't sleep :c


I got an absolute storm thrown at me by my mother, as she found me awake at four in the morning again. I'm sorry if I've caused any confusion or sent the wrong message in my previous posts, but tonight I'm flustered, tired, and can't even tell my left from my right. I need to at least try and sleep, so I'll reply in the morning. I wish you a good night as well :) )
 
(It's alright darling, don't worry, and hey... You know who my favourite on here is because he's the strongest and soft heart guy... You, so go get some sleep and make sure you sleep enough and don't message anyone until you actually wake up... Don't let us disrupt your sleeping patterns darling... Kay? Love ya. <3 night night~ )
 
(Love you too, Soul... I try not to disrupt my sleeping patterns, but you're all too amazing for me not to <3 goodnight, last post now.)
 
(Good... And honestly don't worry about us, go get some sleep and stop worrying about how amazing we are okay? Just remember that we are only amazing because you brought us together. So that makes you amazing. *squishes your cheeks a bit* now good night and sleep well darling. <3 )
 
(I thought I was the favorite!? Also I think it's souls turn to roll the due, Tom rolled and cursed, that's the last one I saw
