Plank SinatraTatiana & Davina
LOCATION: CAROLLTON, GA
Tatiana slowly opened her eyes and glanced around, things seem quiet enough; which was a welcome relief. Her and Ivana had found an old boarded up house in some town known as Carrollton in West Georgia the day before. It seemed like they hadn't had been able to get a decent nights sleep in months, so when they found this place they decided to hunker down. The place looked to have been raided before but there were still a few cans of peaches they found hidden under a mattress on the second floor. After filtering out the water in the tank of one of the toilets they had sat down for peaches and water; it was a feast compared to most nights. It wasn't long under the doors were barricaded and they had crashed out upstairs in one of the bedrooms.
Tatiana groaned a little bit and rubbed her eyes as she rolled out of the bed and peaked out the window. It was mid-morning already. They would need to scavenge today and try to replenish some supplies. Things were getting low and they really needed some more gas for Davina's Chevy. "Davina, vstavay. Come on Davi, vstavay," Tati said as she kicked the mattress of the bed a few times.
"V minutu," there was a groan as the lump over the bed turned to it's side to swat away at whoever was kicking the mattress. There was no point anyway, Davina was already awake and the day was already bad. The dead were still walking, of course it was still bad.
But at least Lady Luck had been kind enough to give the girls a somewhat calm night in. After barricading the door, there was nothing that bothered them inside the ransacked home going by how well Davina slept for the first time in what felt like ever. Davina loved her car, but it wasn't the best for her or Tati's back. "I'm up," she grumbled as she stood up to walk off her grogginess. "Any bastards vaiting for us outside?" She asked Tati.
Tati shook her head a bit as she stood there. "Nyet, streets look pretty clear right now," she said as she picked up her pack and flopped down on the bed next to Davi and pulled out a couple of water bottles and another can of peaches from the raid of the house the night before. Setting a bottle down next to Davi she pulled out her knife and started to pick at the can until she was able to get it open. Stabbing one of the slices with the tip of her blade she pulled it out and shoved it into her mouth before handing the can over to Davi.
"MmmWEnomnomNEEDnomnomTOnomnomGOnomnomSCAVAGINGnomnomnom," Tati said with a giggle as she tried to talk with her mouth full of peach. Wasn't everyday they got to wake up in a bed much less actually have a little something to eat in the morning. The fact they both this morning had put Tati in a much better mood than she had been over the last few weeks.
Well at least someone was happy, going by how Tati was giggling while shoving the canned peaches into her mouth. Davina took a couple of the peaches from the offered can, copying Tatiana by using her own blade to slice open the peach to devour the fruit before taking a small gulp of water down her parched throat.
It took a moment for Davi to decipher Tati's words, "I saw--a trail--on our vay-- to this pla--ce." she responded in the midst of her own chewing, wiping her mouth with the sleeve of her jacket before standing up and taking another gulp from her bottle.
"Vanna see where that leads?" For all they knew, it could lead to a goldmine. Downing some more of the water and finishing chewing the peach in her mouth Tati swallowed and packed up her gear. "Da, sounds good to me," she said as she hefted the pack onto her back. "Let's grab the gas can out of the back of the truck before we head out. Least we know we can fall back here if shit gets bad."
Turning she headed down the stairs, climbing over the couch they had used to block any deadies from getting upstairs of they managed to get in while they were sleeping. As she reached the door she slow slid the table to one side and pulled out her hunting knife, waiting for Davi to take point like she normally did. Time to get to work.
"I agree. Best place I've been to since the damn apocalypse started." And there was no exaggeration in her tired voice, instead Davi followed behind Tati cautiously, climbing over the collapsed barricade of a couch towards the front door. She pulled her weapon out of her jeans waistband, clicking off the safety switch before looking over at Tati to make sure she was ready.
Carefully, Davina unlocked the door and slowly opened it, peeking her head out ever so slightly while holding her breath as she scanned the front lawn for any dead surprises. Tati stepped out the door slowly and pulled it shut as she looked around, slowly moving a chair in front of the door to barricade it; more for show than anything. It would be simple enough to move if shit hit the fan and they had to book it back here.
"Davay poshli." Davina muttered under her breath as she saw nothing outside. It was only a matter of time, and it was quite possible that the fuckers were just hiding around. Tati's fingers flexed over the handle of her knife as she started to move from the porch and out into the street. Things seemed pretty quiet out there but that didn't mean that it would stay that way.
"There vas that repair shop by the tracks. Maybe ve start there and see if ve can siphon some gas?" she asked as she glanced towards Davi.
"Maybe, let's just try and get into ze car vithout losing an arm first." Davi peered around, her hand gripping tightly on her gun with her finger ready on the trigger as they headed towards the car. Looking over to the left, she noticed a couple crawlers heading their way towards them with enough distance between the two to not warrant as much worry. Still.
"Look out, ve might have some trouble."
Tati looked over towards the Crawlers coming their way and nodded slightly as she tightened her grip on her hunting knife. "You get car started, I got them. No gun, don't vant to attract more," Tati said as she started walking towards the Crawlers, circling around to one side as she hunched down. One at a time, that was the plan.
"Ve don't need to attack. Don't risk it unnecessarily." As long as the walkers didn't get too close, there was no need to attack and risk getting hurt. Last thing Davi wanted was to haul Tati's injured ass around after such a good night's sleep. Davi tiptoed towards the car, her eye keeping track of the upcoming walkers while she unlocked her car. Tati glanced over to her and nodded, she was right. It wasn't worth the effort right then. Slowly stepping away she started to make make her way slowly towards the car.
She slid inside, and winced as the engine let out a loud splutter as the car kickstarted back to life. "Shit. Come on Tati, we don't hav' time." Tati's eyes darted towards the car and then back over towards the walkers, three more coming out of the bushes.
"Der'mo!" she grunted quietly before she sprinted to the car and jumped in; pulling the door shut quickly. "Let's get out of here," she grumbled as the walkers started to come more and more out of the wood work as it were towards them, the sound of the engine drawing their attention.
Davi didn't need to be told twice. She changed the gears and slammed on the pedal, the car lurching forwards as they peeled out of the driveway and onto the road. The sound attracted the walkers and some extra crawlers; their dead moans still slipping through the closed windows and into Davina's ears. Tati reaching up and grabbing what was lovingly referred to as the Oh Shit bar and held on as they drove off from the on coming crawlers.
"Blyad', that vas a close one." Davi tightened her grip on the steering wheel, her knuckles turning white. Taking a deep breath she sheathed her hunting knife and reached over to Davi, placing her hand on her thigh and giving a gentle squeeze.
"We're good, breath Davi," she said in a reassuring voice as she patted her leg and then pulled back, pushing her hair out her face as she looked out the back window as the crawlers got further and further away. "Vell, I'm awake now."
"Vhy do I think that things are about to become shittier?" It was a rhethorical question, but it was a nagging feeling in the pit of her stomach ever since Davina slid into her car. Maybe she was right and things were about to become worse, or maybe she was just paranoid.
Who knows in this godforsaken world?
LOCATION - ALLEYWAY, HEADED TOWARDS COURTHOUSE & INFIRMARY
The moment was sweet while it lasted, but Meghna knew that there was still work to be done. Things were still needing to be cleared out, people to help. Ash still most likely needed support, or Vivian in the infirmary - she was sure that people were possibly crowding the poor lady for medical attention.
"Come on, before we're kicked out of Newnan for being lazy it's best if we go find Ash or Viv." Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed Sidd stiffen at the mention of Vivian's name. She looked over her shoulder, an eyebrow raised. "What?"
"She's dead. She was shot during the invasion." Meg saw the guilt in his eyes, and she shut her eyes for a moment to send a prayer up (or down) to wherever the woman was. Not only Leanne and Caesar, but now they lost their medical expert? Newnan had no hope-
"There's someone else. He came with the new crowd you lot brought in on your expedition. He's dealing with the injured." Well, that was certainly a relief. But was he really to be trusted? What if he was stealing what little resources they had left? Meghna made a face, motioning Sidd to follow her as she made her way to the infirmary to provide any help she could. Hell, even if she and Sidd weren't welcome in the infirmary, there could be someone that the twins could be useful to.
