Realistic or Modern The Dead among us

Gracie-Anne ran her hands up and down her exposed shoulders in some unsuccessful attempt to generate some heat against the bracing cold. She had lost her jacket a while ago and now she found that it was extremely cold, she only hoped she and the rest of the group would get somewhere warm soon.

It all happened so fast, in a matter of minutes one of the group members were killed and now they were standing in the middle of a forest. Charlie scanned the darkness as the others tried to calm themselves or get warm. "We need to build a fire" He said.


((i dont actually know whats going on.. well, i sort of do))

 

[IntrovertedPeach]

"Won't we be seen, if we have a fire?" Gracie-Anne asked. It had happened to her before, she'd built a fire once out in the open and moments later been spotted by a group of undead.


((Taco gave me a brief summary a few posts back, it explains most things to this point )).

Her cold words cut the air. She didn't want Phillip talking to her. He was just trying to help. It seemed as if she didn't want to open up to anyone, ad he understood that. Partially. He could tell she was cold, her body was shivering and her breath was cloudy. He took off the light jacket he had been wearing ever since it became cold out, got up and wrapped it around her, "you sure you don't wanna sit he the fire ? You look freezing." He said with a concerned look on his face.


((Lmfao fell asleep mid post and lost my train of thought when i woke up.. Hope this'll do))

Sage shook her head. Even though she was cold, she wanted to stay here, where she would be the first one to kill any biters that came along. She threw Philips coat to the floor, refusing to wear it. She hated the pity, thats all this week was full of was pity. At that thought she heard rustling in the woods, a biter with its insides falling out, a dented skull, and a bite in his neck came out of the forestry. Sage was surprised only for a moment, but she did not hesitate to fulfill her brothers last wish. She held up her gun, aiming for the eye, and she shot her brother directly in the skull.

Rain looked at sage as she killed what was left of her brother surprised.She looked around and saw Gracie-Anna shivering so she decided to walk over to her and give her the jacket she had.


"here you go you seem a little chili."Rain said to here knowing that she would be fine because she had a warm sweater on.

On a street corner, Matt lay down with a needle in his arm, regretting his decision. He was overconfident in fighting those people, and he was paying his price. He had to use up his only transfusion kit. It hurt, but at least he would feel better. He decided to sleep it off in a house he had fortified. He crawled on a mattress, lay down, and tried his best to get some sleep.

Jessica shook her head when Sage shot the gun. The sound would alert biters. A frown puckered her lips and she walked over to Sage, "that gun shot will being biters Sage, you should have used your knife. I know you have a knife because you wouldn't be slitting your wrists if you didn't. From now on we don't use guns unless needed." Jessica said as calmly as she could. Once Jessica had witnessed Sage cutting herself.


Emi went over to Charlie. "How's your arm and thigh?" She smiled friendly

 

[Catharsis]

Sage was ultimately pissed off at Jessica's statment. Her brother had told her to SHOOT him not stab him.


She didn't care how many biters it attracted, she was still following her brothers orders."Your damn fire is attracting more biters than one gunshot." Sage said standing from where she was and stomped off into the woods. She wasn't going far, but she had to get away from the group. They were being stupid. She didn't care that she was the only one on guard, nor did she care that no one came with her , and it was dark. She didn't care when the biter came at her. Her lips formed a smile as she reached for a rusty chain on the ground and tightened it as the biters head popped off his body. She smiled as she heard it's moans, and she smiled as she lowered the lighter to his face, catching it on fire. She had her own little fire sitting in front of her she thought to herself as she threw her knife Into the ground, and took a seat by her "camp fire".

Philip frowned when she threw his jacket on the ground, did she really not care for me at all? No, stop being selfish, she's just in some pain right now. He became frightened at the biter that emerged from the woods, and he couldn't even tell that it was Justice until Sage had shot him. Jessica came over and scolded her, and then he was notified that she was cutting herself. I had no idea.. when she had ran off he thought about following her, but decided against it. He looked over at Jessica "She just needs to be alone, I had no idea she was cutting herself..." He gave her a look as if it was his fault that she was in this state, and he couldn't help but feel this way.

Troye and Alex stood on a long highway, cars were backed up everywhere, and they were checking the cars for supplies. "This one has a dead cat in it." Alex said holding up a small figure that's skin had tightened to it's bones, reavealing it's ribs. "That's disgusting man." Troye said looking away. The creature let out a small yelp. Alex dropped the cat frightened "awh man shoot the poor piece of shit." He said putting his hand on his forehead. Troye looked down at the small figure feeling sorry for the fragile little animal. He pulled some jerky out of his pocket and fed it to the animal, who took it eagerly.


"Let's take it with us. Could be intresting." Troye said poking at the animals ribs. "It's half dead man." Alex said looking at the animal with disgust. Troye walked around the animal and reached in the car it came from, turning the keys that were still in the ignition, he heard the roar of the cars engine. Throwing his backpack in the backseat he smirked and said "I think we'll call it lucky.".


He got in the car, and sat the cat in his lap. Shutting the door he raised a eyebrow at Alex. "Your so sick man." Alex said tossing his supplies in the backseat, then he opened the door and got in the passenger seat.

Sage laid next to the biter-fire. Her arms laid behind her head and her knife laid on her chest. She listened to the sounds of biters wondering around the woods. She wasn't worried about them until they got close. She chewed on the collar of her shirt. She began to wonder if it was time for her to go back, but at this thought she slowly drifted to sleep, but a few moments later she awoke to the sound of close footsteps. When she opened her eyes two men stood in front of her, one held his gun aiming for her head at the first sight of trouble.


Alex stood in the woods,


Pointing a gun at a young girl layin beside what looked like a head burning. Troye stood off to the side, stroking his new cat. Troye was a bit pissed at Alex for makin them come Into the woods like this. Alex had seen the smoke from the fire, and made him stop the car in hopes they would find his family at the fire.


Sage was startled and immediately called for her group "Guys..!" She had screamed backing away from the man.

 

[travelbypages]

Jessica had been cleaning her knife when she hesrd Sage scream, which immediately made her jump up and run in the direction that Sage went. When she found her Jessica stopped and looked at the men, Jessica had her gunninnher hsnd and was pointing it at the man with the gun, "put your gun down!" She demanded and slowly walked closer.


Emi had followed Jessica into the woods, she didn't want her sister to get hurt and if she needed back up Emi would be there. She hid behind a tree, but kept her hesd poked out so she could see the two men, Emi had been jumpy around strangers since the gunman incident.

 

[Gitmuny]

Phillip jolted up from his sleep and wandered close behind Emi who seemed to be running after something. "Whoa whoa whoa, what's all the commotion about." Coming up to the group he seen Jessica and Sage, as well as Emi confronting with two strangers. The two men look rough. He flipped out his knife and started edging toward Sage, but his eyes remained on the men, particularly on the one aiming his gun at Sage. He stretched out his hand towards her and said "come on, it's okay, just get up slowly." He didn't want anything bad to happen, but he knew that encounters with strangers who at first instance drew a weapon on your people, were often, let's just say eventful. He kept switching his eyes between the men, and Sage, and Jess and her sister. "We mean yo guys no harm, just put down the weapon and we'll all be safe." Although normally you didn't give away information to strangers in a world like this he dared to tell them this "there's more of us back there, and they're armed." Obviously no one in the group was really in much condition to fight, but maybe it would play mind games with the two and ease them off of Sage.

 

[Catharsis]

Alex looked to Troye "They've got a group man, maybe they've seen them." He said with hope in his voice.


Troye put his cat on his shoulder, "Alright guys truthfully we want no trouble, my buddy here just wants to know where his wife and kids are, so have any of you seen a ugly ass woman about 5"4 carrying a infant around?" As troye said this he stepped forward and lowered Alex's gun "watch where you point that shit." He said humorously. Looking around Troye looked around at the group, "What the hell is this highschool musical?" He said realizing all the people surrounding him were mostly teens. Alex looked at his friend a bit irritated.

MacKenzie heard Sage's scream, she watched most of the group run forward her, she was curious, and followed. She saw Sage Laying on the ground and she noticed two men standing over her.

 

[travelbypages]

((I just realized that they are all teenagers imma change Jessica back to 24...))


Jessica raised an eyebrow and shook her head, "suprised that teenagers can survive on their own?" She asked and lowered her gun, "I happen to be twenty four..." she shrugged, "I don't think we've come across anyone with a baby... I'm sorry." She said quietly, eyeing the men and her eyes landing on the creepy looking cat, "uhmmm is the little guy okay?" She tried to sound nice so the guys wouldn't shoot them.


Emi stood beside her sister looking at the cat "awe! Its so cute!" Emi had always loved animals, she had her own puppy before the apocalypse but the biters tore him to pieces.

 

[DreamCatcher99]

Rain heard footsteps going away and saw her sister leaving with the rest of the group and she decided to follow.when she got there she saw two men standing in front of the group.She saw the cat on his shoulder and wondered how it was still alive.


"hey no offense but how is your cat alive."Rain said to them.
