The paths beyond the rubble definitely looked more appealing.  One led into the ruins of what looked like a shop, the other was a side passage.  The shop might have something useful, but they needed to get out of this zombie-infested town as quickly as possible.

Javal considered his options, and whether the shop could have anything that they needed, when Lena made her decision and headed to the side passage.  Javal followed behind, wishing neither to hesitate nor risk splitting up.  Of course, they still needed to figure out just [i]how[/i] to escape this place.  In theory, heading in any direction for long enough would eventually lead them out, but the streets, alleys, and zombies, and rubble might not permit an easy exit.

Perhaps it would help to locate a decent vantage point.  The climb over the rubble had made it evident that his new body was fairly dextrous, perhaps there were other places that he could scale...
