Sydney is looking around the landscape, hand on the butt of her concealed pistol at all times. She observes empty cars, doors just left open and seemingly abandoned, normally busy shops lying empty even of workers and even a few signs of damage, or possibly even combat or rioting.
The f*$& happened here!? Looks like the aftermath of a a riot but without any broken windows...
She reaches out and puts a hand on Tori's shoulder, stopping the young girl from going further.
Hold up kiddo, something ain't right.
She motions for the mysterious man to stop by raising one hand up in a 'stop' motion.
Oi! Mate! Hold it! Do you know what's goin' on 'round here?
She hears someone behind her ask for a cellphone and pauses.
Damn...
She pulls out her phone and looks at the shattered screen in frustration.
Damnit! Chains said these things were supposed to be tough!

I look over at the boy as he emerges from wreckage, a confused look washes over his face as I watch him take in everything around us, "My name's bass...like the fish." I say as I look around at everything. I wasn't exactly clear headed when exiting the bus so I hadn't realized my surroundings. I looked at the man limping down the street, but upon noticing everything else, I was left a bit speechless. Wait... When did all this happen? I swear everything was fine just a few hours ago... Or maybe...how long were we out for? Because cities don't just become ghost towns within a few hours. I look back at the boy who woke me up (@forums), "Honestly man, I don't know. I've never seen the streets like this before. Maybe there was an evac in this neighbourhood, like, your guess is as good as mine."

Checking earlier, I knew I didn't have my phone on me so I didn't even try to be of help. Time was escaping me, I couldn't even determine how long its been since I've been awake, but I wanted to do something. It felt like I've been standing in front of this broken bus for hours, even though its only been minutes. I speak to the group, "We all have calls to make, places to be and people to see. If none of us have a working phone then maybe we should make the trek to the cop shop and see if they can help us... We can also drop this guy off at the hospital on the way there," I point to the limping man down the street, "He looks more injured than any of us here.... What do you guys say?"
