[IC] The Dead Rising [HOTD Closed]

[karamonnom]

Amaya noticed that there was a fight going on, with Angelo holding a scalpel to another man's throat. Should she stop them? Should she say something? She quickly ran over there, not really with a plan to defuse the situation. "It's a zombie apocalypse and you guys want to steal a computer from a bunch of teenagers?" she said, exasperated. But it looked like Glenn beat her to it. Still, she remained in fighting position, just in case.

[RumikoOhara]

Miki is surprised when instead of fear at the two men's approach she feels the same rush she felt before while smashing the skulls of the horrors back at the school. She sees Angelo slipping up behind the gunman and is ready when he grabs him and threatens him with a scalpel causing his partner's attention to move away from her.

She moves with a burst of speed covering the space between her and him in three steps. He turns back towards her sensing her but too late and sees the bat in her hands coming at his face. The bat lands with a metallic crack snapping his head back and sending him falling backwards to land with a thud onto the concrete surrounding the fuel Island.

When she turns towards the other man her eyes are smoldering with excitement.
"You were going to rob us?
You're scum, if you'd have offered to join us we could have shared everything and now look where you are. she snarls

Angela was ready to fight but she wasn't expecting such hostility from Texas people would her. We went know if it was just that she hasn'tn kill anything yet but they way he went about it felt off. She then saw the intent to kill in there eyes, even in then enemy's she felt nausea and anger. When Mimi struck the man and saw the way his neck bent she burster out "STOP IT! Just because they threaten us doesn't mean we have to kill them. If we just kill anyone and everyone that get in the way, then we are no better than the zombies!" She didn't think that would stop them but she at least want them to know what here option is, and how she would think of them if they killed them. Calming herself down she told the man that was still awake, "There was no Ned to get in are way. There are plenty of supplies in the store, so I don't see the point of robbing us."

The man dropped the machete and keep very still. He was about to open his mouth to say something but quickly shut it when his partner was knocked down by the chick. He realized that moment that they weren't going around. After hearing the girl out he said "Ok, ok whatever, just let me go, I'll give you whatever we have. You want the gun, here have it. The rest of the ammo is in the car."

She reach for the gun and took it from him. It felt strange in her hands, mainly because she never held a gun before. It was a lot heavier that she thought and was cold to the touch."Um, sorry I don't think I had met you before, but could you remove the holster from him?" She asked the boy with the scalpel. She turned to Miki and asked her, "And can you get the rest of the ammo from the car?" She kept her voice calm, trying to stop more fighting that might end for the worse.

[RumikoOhara]

Miki shivers aking a couple of deep breaths then she relaxes as much as the adrenaline in her system will allow.

"This is no game, it's all about survival and civility is only granted to those who act civilly. In a disaster there are animals like these who see an opportunity to forget their humanity; in some countries their actions would mean summary execution by the police or military forces. Miki says firmly

[joeycbee]

@RumikoOhara
"Yes, and do we look like the police or the military? No, and there are plenty of other methods then simple killing someone. I could care less if you bet the shit out of him, but they way you guys were acting I didn't seem you would end there." She said just as firmly as Miki. She could let a lot of things slid and pretend she didn't care, but she could not simply allow this to happen without a fight."Look we could have this conversation for days but we have bigger things to worry about like the time. We should get going, we have the supplies we need for now and have a few more weapons thanks to are friends here." She said realising that they can have this conversation while getting the hell out of here. There were moans far away, but close enough to let everyone know that they should move now before they have to deal with more zombies.

[Jangel13]

I don't care what he is doing I just know that I've already killed my classmates I have no problem killing this guy" Angelo warned as he kept the scalpel to his throat as he grabbed his holster and gave it the woman before he pulled the man backwards and away from everyone else so he could let him go "remember the ONLY reason your alive is because our leader said no" Angelo said sighing as he walked back to the others

So can somebody give me a laptop so I can do what I do?" Angelo asked them wondering if someone found a computer

[ChronoBovino]

We don't kill the living he thought. He then heard the moans of the undead"I think that's our signal to get the hell outta here" he said pointing his thumb behind him to the bus. "Angelo I got the laptop in there the screens cracked a bit but it seems fine. Will I drive?" he said trying to pretend nothing happened.

[karamonnom]

Amaya quickly hopped onto the bus; she didn't need to be told twice. She sat back where she sat earlier and was very much ready to get out of here. Even if they didn't get everything they needed yet, they had to get going. Amaya hoped someone else in the group brought the food.

[RumikoOhara]

Miki simply smiled rather than argue over the issue of the scum and whether they should live or not but her anger wouldn't allow her to remain completely silent.

"They have shown their intentions and true colors and I believe they will find someone else to prey upon given the chance. I wonder which of us they would have taken as entertainment?" said Miki as she steps back onto the bus and takes a seat near it's center.

She is no cold blooded killer or at least she hopes she's not becoming one knowing down that path is a dishonor she cannot bare. As she sits she removes the two brush hook machetes and the tool belt from her waist.

[ChronoBovino]

"Everyone strapped in?" he counted by bobbing his head up and down "Ok" he put the keys in ignition started it up put it in gear and they drove off One step closer to the marina he thought .

Glenn felt a bit empty inside at the thought of losing his brother it made him also feel sick. He enjoyed spending time with his brother they were like best friends hell he even liked Axle. Yep he sure would miss him but then as he drove he looked at some of the horrors and did a little "hmmph".

[Jangel13]

Angelo quickly grabbed the laptop from Glenn and ran into the bus glad to have a piece of tech in his hands, he pretty much felt naked without something that in his possession so once he strapped himself into the bus he quickly started to typing even as Glenn was driving Angelo was in complete focus as he started surfing the web looking for information about what the hell happened...

[RumikoOhara]

Miki didn't allow the disagreement back at the station bother her because her instruction taught her to weigh her choices before making them and once made to never regret them. She was raised like her ancestors to lead, to take responsibility and to submerge her emotions so that she appear strong an decisive. These were the reasons she had given up her old school to attend a school with a more diverse population.

Doubt crept into her thoughts which she immediately cast away and replaced with duty. She had to remain resolute and determined once they were aboard ship because any mistake on her part could doom them all. She was sure that she would find some of her fellow students resistant to her commands and her enemy was her own anger and stubborn nature.

[karamonnom]

"So are we going to Marina now?" Amaya asked curiously. She really felt like she was out of the loop lately which didn't sit too well with her. It's not like she wanted to be super involved and be in charge of everything, but things were going so fast and it was hard for her to wrap her head around things. She watched as they ran over some of the zombies and wondered how many of them she used to know before they became monsters. She tapped her finger on the back of the seat in front of her, waiting for someone to answer her question.

[ChronoBovino]

Glenn heard the conversation @karamonnom"I would assume some I mean after the supplies we scored looks like time for a base". he said still watching the road."Oh Hey Angelo how's it going back there find anything about what the craps going on?" he said as the bus turned the corner.

Glenn needed to know information maybe his brother had a chance of living "We'll make it though this and my brother will be helping the military and he'll be safe..he will" he thought but still not 100% sure if he was thinking the truth.

[RumikoOhara]

Miki wonders if she should voice the thoughts running through her head knowing how dark and negative they are. She knows that some of those with her are holding on by a thread as they deny the facts so far presented.

This plague, curse or madness shows the ability to spread quicker than any pandemic ever seen. The police and emergency crews of the government have most likely been overwhelmed and rendered null by it's speed. The military having larger resources of personnel and equipment are most likely just now responding after having to declare martial law without civil approval. Hospitals must look like carnal houses due to their lack of security and ease of access.

Miki knows if she were to say any of this it might cause panic and anger to cloud everyone's mind just as it did when she reacted brutally to the would be robbers back at the station. She blushes remembering how she'd lost to her anger and severely injured the creep and how good it felt on a base level.

He deserved it and worse, she thinks to herself. If he and his friend had rode up and asked to join their band Miki would have welcomed them but when they'd acted as animals she'd responded with jungle law and it still surprised her how quickly she had.

She drew her legs up on the seat and rested her back against the window as she relived her horrors so far. This day she'd gone from Usagi (Bunny) to Tora (Tiger) and already she was beginning to miss her innocence

[joeycbee]

Anselma was about to get on the bus but she realized that Mimi never got the spare bullets. "REALLY?" She said to no one in general. She ran back and quickly looted the car. She opened the trunk and her eyes widened. It was like a complete arsenal there, minus the fact that none of this was near standard military grade. She grab 2 box's of spare bullets for the revolver, a combat knife, a katana, and a portable DVD reader that was in the front of the car. The rest was other guns that she felt was unnecessary since there attracted to noise. She got back on the bus just as the doors were closing and took a seat in the back examining her loot. "We should get going Miki." She said to her.

She strapped the sheath to the gun to her waist and put the gun in it. She also strapped the knife to her waist as well. She decide no to pull out any of the weapons since she didn't want any accidents happening and would look at the katana later, setting it aside in the back. She played with the portable DVD reader but was disappointed to find that she needed a screen. After a while she got bored and decided to chat up one of the guys.

She took a seat next to Angelo and looked over at his computer. It looked like he was trying to get on the internet but it seemed that he couldn't for what ever reason. Her eyes drifted to the desktop and saw steam on it. "Hey I think we should see what games are on this computer." She said hanging over his shoulder from the seat behind, pointing at steam. Luckily whoever got the computer was smart enough to grab the charger too.

[karamonnom]

Amaya overheard Anselma's question and began to chuckle. "Do you really think now is the time to be playing games?" Amaya said, teasing Anselma a little bit. She didn't mean any harm by it though, she thought it was cute how she could be interested in playing computer games when it was the end of the world. It was the kind of thing that they needed to lighten the mood anyhow.

[RumikoOhara]

"I really need a bath, I've destroyed over 200 horrors today with bat an bobcat tractor an their gore is frankly beginning to reek. Need clothes as well to change into because these are ruined. " said Miki as Glenn drove on

Miki leans back an sighs feeling as alone as she's always felt. No matter where she's ever gone to school or even on vacation she's always been an outsider. She wasn't normal and it was her parents fault in some ways but it was also the barrier that always seemed to erect it's self because of her wealth.

"Well at least money has lost it's meaning" she says to herself giggling

[Jangel13]

Guys I have some bad news, worse news and some slightly good news" Angelo said to them hoping that he could give it to them point blank from what he has read. So far it isn't much considering this is just a laptop without anything extra it was still able to get some internet access or at least some access seeing as how some of the major websites have gone down. "Bad news is that we don't know what really happened and I wont know unless I can get equipment to hack into the military computers which wont likely happen. Worse news, this whatever it is, has spread and I don't mean like to just one continent this has gone global nowhere is really safe at least from what I can tell from this laptop. The slightly good news is that from these blocked websites I keep trying to access keep saying that the military has been deployed for whatever good that will do" Angelo said softly wondering how people will react to hearing that nowhere is completely safe anymore...

[ChronoBovino]

Glenn listened as Angelo spoke he felt to scared to reply but did it anyway "Well this 'marina' is the best idea we got then" he admired everyone's courage through these times and horrors. He shook his head "So that gun mind if I hold onto it ya know well I don't really like close up combat" he only heard what that sounded like when he said it kinda rude "Oh I don't mean to be rude! and I won't fire it unless I have to"
