Roxy noticed the woman come out of one of the houses. But she didn't approach. While she though every person should band together for survival. Not everyone agreed. Roxy flashed one of her knives so that the other girl would know she was armed. Roxy yelled a greeting. "Hello."

The sun reflecting on the girl's weapon hit Sydney right in the eyes, making her take a step to the right. In a clear gesutre Sydney hung her rifle on her shoulder and raised her hands, so the other girl wouldn't see her as a threat. But if the other girl did something, Sydney wouldn't hesitate. Slowly Sydney started to approach the other girl, but stopped after a few meters. "My name is Sydney" She yelled back. "Who are you?"

"Roxy. We have come to look for supplies." Roxy answered twirling her knife life a baton. She had caught a glimps of something. Sydney was armed, but Roxy didn't know with what.

Daniel just left the building when he heard a commotion outside. At first he could only see the girl with the knives and the rest of the group standing by the van, but when he came outside he could see the armed newcomer and pulled a javelin from his quiver. He reflected light towards the group to catch someone's attention, and he looked at them with a look that probably meant: what is happening? What should I do?

"More company." Roxy announced to no one particular. She was glad to see more survivors. The more people the better their odds in her opinion.

"Well, most houses are pretty empty" Sydney said as she made gesture towards the houses around her. "There's especially not much food left. This is all there is.." She added and picked up a can of food out of her bag. She placed one knee on the ground and sent the can rolling down the street, hopefully with enough force to reach the other girl. Then Sydney stood up again.

Roxy stops the rolling can with her foot. She didn't bother to see what was in the can. It didn't matter. They would have to do with whatever they could find. "Then I guess we best keep looking. Would you like to combine our resources?"

Sydney gave the other girl a nod. "Sure, sounds like the best thing to do right now" She said and closed the distance between herself and the other girl. "Nice to meet you" She said and held out her hand.

"I've found some more food too," said Daniel "So, who is this new girl? I'm Daniel, nice to see that we're not the only ones left in this world." Daniel walks to the van, to the rest of the group, and shows the loot he has stored in his backpack. "I've got seven tins of canned food, a flashlight and batteries, a sixpack of water bottles and one and a half litre of soda. However...." Daniel counts the people "We have six mouths to feed, so this is a day's worth of rations. Ermh... Girl with the knives, I actually don't know your name yet either, care to tell me?"

"Girl with knives." Roxy says with a laugh. "I like that. My name is Roxy you can use it if you like. Supplies are tight, but I can hunt if need be. What we need is a defendable place to set up. Maybe a prison or something with a tall fence around it."

Sydney looked at Daniel who approached the van, and lowered her hand again. "Pleasure" She said and gave Daniel a nod. "I'm Syney. I've got some food, but it's not much. I've been alone for quite a while so I've only taken what I need." She added. She looked aroud. "Where's the rest of your groups? Inside?"

"Checking houses. The driver thought this was a good place to start looking for supplies." Roxy explained. She felt kind of bad that she hadnt gotten the names of the others. They had been kind of in a hurry, but they could have introduced themselves during the drive.

Norman checked the pockets of the zombies, and managed to find a gun with 5 bullets. "Sweet" he said quietly. He saw the people talking down the street and went down to join them.

Things were going less that well for Dimitri; as it turned out, the sounds of the dead already following him had attracted even more ghouls, making his already less than favorable odds much much worse. After about three blocks of non stop sprinting, Dimitri managed to lose the zombies by veering off of the road and into a neighborhood, stopping to rest only when after climbing a six foot high wooden fence. "Oh...oh man Val, I though we wren't going to make it..." Dimitri wheezed as he set down the duffel back and slumped onto the cool grass. DImitri's lungs burned, his muscles were on fire, and he was pretty sure that he was starting to get more than a bit dehydrated after having little to drink within the past two days save for some red bulls he'd scavenged from the autoshop's vending machine. No time to worry about that now though, Dimitri unzipped his duffel bag a little more to check on Valentine, only to bite down on his lip to stifle a yelp when greeted by a small mouth full of razor sharp teeth clamping down onto his wrist à la Valentine. The python was less than pleased about being jostled around so roughly, and decided to share it's displeasure the only way it knew how.

Dimitri stifled a scream of profanity as he pried the snake off and examined his now bleeding wrist; it was bloody, but looked worse than it really was, even still, Dimitri would need something to disinfect the wound. "You're an asshole Val." Dimitri hissed under his breath as he pushed the snake out of the way to examine the other contents of the bag: A monkey wrench, a few granola and candy bars, a can of red bull, and, bingo!, some sterile wipes and bandages. Dimitri patched himself up quickly, his eyes darting around the yard for any movement besides his or Valentine's. The last thing Dimitri needed now was unwelcome company.

Jack stood up and destroyed those thoughts. He made himself rid of the horrors. He took a deep breath and gently took Gingers hand with his battle-axe in the other. He led them both out of the house and into the street. "Ok there wasn't anything we could find in that house, what about you guys?" He asked letting go of Gingers hand. He looked around and noticed some of them were new.

"I'm getting to know the natives." Roxy indicated to the others. "We think we have enough a few days."

Ginger allowed himself to be led out of the house by Jack, relaxing to see that Jack wasn't going to have a break down. Ginger looked at the others, and realized he didn't really know any of them. "Um... What is all of you guys names?" He asked, if they were going to be together they might has well be friendly to each other. Ginger wasn't a sociable person, but he wanted to at least to get past basic names.

"We were just introducing ourselves. I am Roxy and this is Sydney." Roxy indicated to herself and the other girl.

Jack nodded and he came up with an idea. "We should try those big mansion houses out in the country side. Those are sure to have something" He suggested.

"Yes but will it be anything useful." Roxy didn't like rich people. They were snotty and thought they were better then everyone else. "We aren't likely to find weaponry there. But maybe we could make one of the gated mansions a base."

Ginger nodded, "I'm Ginger." He said, waving briefly before glancing over at Jack before back at Roxy. "That sounds pretty good, I hope we have enough room in the van, it is probably going to be getting crowded soon." Ginger commented, crossing his arms over his chest as he looked back at the others. He grew uneasily when he realized how loud they were being, he was sure they were bound to attract some attention if they weren't careful.
