Damien could not believe his eyes. How clumsy was Donny to have fallen three times in such dire moments. Damien felt saddened by his friends death and partially felt like it was his fault that he missed the first shot. Maybe if he wouldn't have missed that initial round he fired, Donny might still be alive. It was an unreal feeling he was experiencing. He did not like to see death, no matter the scenario. The fact that this was possibly his last hope of ever finding human life again was sickening.
He stood there motionless as time began to pass briefly by. Damien stood in a daze over his acquaintances corpse. Thoughts began to race through his mind even faster now. Would he ever find a safe place with Donny now gone. Would he ever be able to return home to be with his family and protect them. How long could he stay on the run on his own. His thoughts were interrupted by a bark. It was Lobo. Through the previous events that just happened, Damien had totally forgotten about Lobo's presence. He then realized that no matter what, he wouldn't be alone. He looked down at his canine companion as he felt a sense of calm and warmness fall over him seeming to bring him to harmony. Lobo continued to growl without barking this time with his attention facing ahead of Damien and by the entrance to the building Donny brought them to. Damien finally realized that Lobo had something catching his attention. Damien looked up and seen a girl darting into the building. "What the hell?" Damien mumbled to himself. He would have normally drew for his weapon but the woman figure did not appear to be a threat and appeared to be fleeing from something. From Damiens little experience, the walking dead did not ever seem to run from anything. "The buildings unlocked?" Damien questioned himself in confusion. Damien began to approach the doors slowly. In the same slow pace, he began to reach around and draw his pistol once more, preparing for any unpleasant surprises that could possibly arise. Just as he edged up closer, he heard very feint foot steps from other side of the door.
The delay in the sound was not long enough for Damien to register how to react but instead was shocked at what he now seen ahead of him. A man busted open the door from the inside in a panic it seemed. The man stood a tall roughly six feet. He had the appearance of the average blue collar working American male. Trustworthy or not, Damien had taken greater risks than what now stood ahead of him than in the past. He spoke words signaling for Damien to enter the building for safety. The outside did not seem dangerous at the exact moment, but what rested inside could not possibly be worse than what walked out there. Damien then rushed into the building signaling for Lobo to follow suit.
When arriving inside, his ears did not like what he heard. The sound of more activity in the building and not normal human like sounds. Before Damien could speak or do anything for that matter, the situation got more jumbled when that same girl that he had seen rush in the building, now came out from the shadows. She seemed more nervous and shaken up than Damien did. Damien wondered if these two were together and taken over this building for a safe house of a sort. Those thoughts were quickly cancelled when the woman asked out loud if they had room for one more. Assuming this was the first time all three of them were meeting, Damien decided to take initiative. "I don't have a group or anything, but me and Lobo here wouldn't mind tag teaming with you two for the time being to find a good safe place." The two people he had just met seemed like they had anyone else accompanying them. They seemed like they were in the same position Damien was in. What were their motives and purposes was unknown but at the moment, he knew that numbers meant everything for survival. "I'm Damien, this is Lobo," Damien reached down with his right hand to place his hand on Lobo's head. Lobo seemed uneasy of the building. Damien knew from the outside that this building had a lot of potential safe places to bunker down in. It also had alot of potential places to run to or hide at. There was no way this man was capable of clearing the entire building alone no matter what it was full of. Therefore Damien knew that there was no way the building was one hundred percent safe. "Would you mind explaining to me whats going on and what did I just get myself into?" Damien turned his head and eyes toward the man while asking the question about the status of the building.

Sorry for the long post, I didn't plan for it to be that long just kind of kept building up =/
"Theres no way out," a man's voice echoed in a small room. The words seemed to pierce Damien. Before he could react to the statement, another familiar voice shouted out loudly, "What do you mean 'theres no way out'?" Anger flowed aggressively in his voice as the taller man approached the short and heavier set guy. He extended his hand and grabbed the collar of the fat man. Yanking him closer to his own body, he shouted. "You brought us to this place and your gonna get us out of it god dammit or those things outside are going to be the least of your worries!" Damien said nothing while this went on. He stood by and observed the situation while trying to figure out how to get out of the pickle Donny had gotten the three of them into. Damien met Donny shortly after things went south with the entire outbreak. Donny was supposedly involved in some sort of ownership of this old "crazy house" as he put it. When he told Damien about the place, things didn't sound right or much like the fat brown haired man knew of what he was talking about. He told Damien that the place was a secure shelter that he was positive of that had electricity and a phone connection still available to it. The description of the place seemed almost too good to be true. In most case scenarios, Damien might have dug deeper to seek the truth, but desperate times calls for desperate needs and his desperate needs were to get into contact with his family back home and eventually make his way there to protect them in case the outbreak had indeed reached globally like the rumors he heard.
Still analyzing the small room they were unfortunately seemed stuck in, Damien redirected his attention to the two stranger of whom he'd been traveling with the past couple of days or so. Things began to get even more heated than before when the tall bald man placed both his hands around the fat mans neck and shoved him against the wall cocking back his right hand. Damien decided it was time to intervene at that moment. Reaching out and catching the flying balled up fist, Damien gained the attention of the aggressive man very quickly. Snapping his neck in Damien's direction, he grew frustrated. "Don't you get involved, Damien!" Attempting to break his hand free from Damien's grasp, the bald man pulled his hand down and began to swing again. This time Damien grabbed the man's arm with his own arm clinching it up with his own. Simultaneously, Damien pressed his weight against the mans body and drove him into the wall. While still restraining the mans right arm, Damien looked eye to eye with the bald man who didn't seem so tall standing face to face with Damien. "Don't get flustered so easily. We have to work together to get out of this sticky situation." He tried his best to sooth the beast which normally worked. "You need to tell him," The bald man said attempting to buck Damien off. The attempt was not close to breaking Damien's clinch he had on him. The only effect that his action seemed to set off was a loud sharp bark from a canine figure who seemed to appear out of the corner of the room as it darted to Damien's side. The black and white furry dog seemed to stand guard and ready to defend Damien if the bald man tried something stupid like that again. The bark seemed to gain the attention of the Donny and the bald man but Damien didn't budge at the familiar sound. "Stop being so hostile, your not solving anything." Damien finally stated with a stern tone in his voice. Finally the bald man seemed to come to a more suitable state as Damien released him from the clinch.
"Now then," Damien started up a new topic of speech. "I think our best and well...Or only bet right now is to go through this wall." Damien placed his hand on wall nearest to him. "If what Donny said is accurate, then behind this wall is outdoors." Damien glanced up and down the wall once more before finishing his statement. "And after running all throughout this place, I don't think this place is that study of a building. My guess is that it wouldn't take much to break through this wall with that sledgehammer of yours." Damien suggested toward the tall bald brute. "Not a bad idea." he said impatiently and began to slam his hammer into the wall over and over with all his strength. The sound echoed throughout the room so loud that Donny covered his ears with his hands. Damien didn't get a chance to mention the only issue with this method was. The danger of drawing attention to them from throughout the entire building but also to any other zombies that might have been on the other side of the wall. Damien clinched his on his lower lip in anxiety of the future outcome.
Shortly after he started the bald man already broke through the wall with daylight shining through and onto the the other two men in the room. Damien seemed at ease seeing how there were no zombies on the other side, yet. The bald guy however did not stop after breaking through, he decided to make a clear path by knocking down a space big enough for him to walk through comfortably. Perhaps he was releasing the anger he had built up earlier with Donny. What ever the case was, it proved to not be the best idea as he finished, he walked through and sighed dropping his sledgehammer to the ground and looking up into the sun which he hadn't seen in quite some time. The instant the man let his guard down, a body approached him so suddenly and seemed to catch the tall man off guard and tackled him to the ground. Before Damien and Donny could get to him fast enough, his brief grunts of struggling turned into screams of pain and terror which were obvious signs of injury. Donny was the first to look down at the man quickly confirming his fate, "Hes screwed man, leave him!" The fat man continued on his way in a hurry and his short and stubby body ran off. Before following Donny to his 'safe haven', Damien had to make sure there was no hope left for the man who seemed to have the attack coming as part of karma. Looking down, it was too obvious to even give doubt on from Damien as the amount of blood shed was too much for hope. He felt bad for the man no matter how much of a pain in the neck he was but he knew he had to move on. Damien then sprinted off behind Donny with his equipment in hand whistling and calling for Lobo, his canine companion to follow along. "There she is!" Donny shouted in joy as he pointed off into the distant building. The things that Donny told Damien about the crazy house seemed accurate while Damien looked at it from the outside. Something still seemed off about Donny but Damien wasn't going to investigate further just yet, he just knew he had to keep his guard up. "Over here is the entrance! I know how to get in. No body else should be able to get in. I am one of the very few people who have access to this place. Should be clear of any of those ugly things and any outsiders."
Damien followed him through the entrances. Everything seemed fine and dandy, but that was the problem. It all seemed too good to be true. Damien slowly dropped his speed to a slow walk while Donny kept running and made it to the the big pillars which signaled the entrance of the building. After making it up the few stairs that led to the door, a person suddenly appeared from the side of the steps. He seemed to rise up and awoke by Donnies loud footsteps on the steps. The way Donny reacted, it seemed like he recognized the man who now was stumbling onto the platform which Donny stood upon. Rising to his level, the man said nothing but just walked towards Donny. "Mason! What happened man?" Donny asked the man who appeared to be Macon as he drew closer. Damien was startled by the arrival of the newcomer. "Donny, be careful!" He shouted out to his acquaintance as he reached behind his back and drew his glock from the backside of his waistband. He began to sprint towards the steps when Mason reached out to grab Donny. Donny then seemed to snap out of the confusion when he stumbled on his own clumsy feet as he fell to his back. Helplessly now, Donny looked up at Mason as he almost simultaneously fell at the same time but on top of Donny. "Fuck!" Damien thought as he began to draw his sights of his weapon on Mason but aborted the mission when he didn't have a clear shot when Donny began to tussle on the ground. Leaning up one more time with an attempt to get to his feet, Donny once again fell to his back but sliding enough to potentially kick Mason away. It was at that exact moment that Damien had to take the shot in a hurry. Still sprinting to Donny, Damien drew his gun and fired it once. The bullet missed by a hair when Mason dove for the leg of Donny taking a chunk of meat off Donnies calf. A scream then pierced the nearby atmosphere at what seemed to almost be as loud as the gunshot that previously went off. Damien then stopped running to get a more steady aim and shot when Mason lunged once again at Donny who was stumbling to his feet once more now closer to the steps that he previously walked up. Damien exhaled his breath and took one more shot which found its target be blowing off a fraction of Mason's upper right hand side of his forehead which caused him to instantly his the ground. The gun shot seemed to startle Donny after it blew past him to reach its target which caused him to trip and fall after already being off balance. Falling with his back facing the steps, the back of Donnies head seemed to land flush on the corner edge of one of the solid steps. It was then that Donny became silent and motionless. Damien knew it was bad when Donnies lifeless body began to leak blood continuously down the steps. Damien put his weapon back where he pulled it from and rushed over to Donny to see the severity his state.
"Theres no way out," a man's voice echoed in a small room. The words seemed to pierce Damien. Before he could react to the statement, another familiar voice shouted out loudly, "What do you mean 'theres no way out'?"

Good question <.<, fixing now lol
Name: Damien Maddox
Age: 28
Height: 6'2"
Build: Athletic
Appearance:
Family: Damien's father, brother, and daughter were supposedly back in his home state of Texas when the unfortunate events unfolded. The whereabouts and status of them is unknown to Damien at the current time.
Personality: Damien is an unusual man. Not very easy to read. He is not the typical leader you would imagine that would be assigned to lead a group of people from an outside person. He is not very sociable to newcomers that first meet him. He tries to shy away from warming up to people due to his weakness of attaining strong bonds with people he gets to know. Despite his usual cold demeanor, Damien is a very kind and caring man and has a big heart which once again is a very big weakness of his. For the people who know the officer on a personal level, they would tell you that there is not a man in the world who is as good of a mentor to have. Damien himself does not like to consider himself a leader or mentor. The pressure that comes with those terms seems to make him think of that job as a chore more than a privilege which leads him to stray away from that position if possible. Damien does love to help others any way he can which makes him a very likable person and leader but does not like to assume the role of any type of head of command. When he is ready to open up, Damien is very easy to befriend due to his charming personality and how easy it is to talk to him. After his stint in leading the Dallas SWAT team, Damien does not desire to ever be in charge of a group of people despite his high qualifications for it.
Occupation Before: He was in the Dallas SWAT team
Notable skills: Damien is very well skilled in hand to hand combat as being trained in various forms of martial arts through out his career. He also is accompanied by his Akita canine companion who is tamed and obeys just about every one of his commands. Although he is an experienced leader, he some times does not have the patience for the slower learning people and can become very agitated.

Bio:
Damien was born in a small town in Texas. He grew up on his fathers farm when he was young. Despite growing up on a farm, he never was the typical country boy that you might expect. When his mother and father split up, Damien was 4 years old and lived with his mother in the small country town which his fathers farm was technically part of despite being miles away. He still spent more time with his father than his mother despite living with her by finding rides to his farm daily. His father was the sheriff of the county they lived in and Damien knew what kind of responsibility that was. He looked up to his father very much and learned a great deal about the law and leadership from his father. For as long as Damien could remember, his dream was to follow in his father's footsteps and become the Sheriff of the county as well. As we all know, nothing ever goes quite as planned.
When Damien hit the teenage years of his life, he began to lose focus on his life goal and began to experience the fun side of being a teenager. Partying, girls, and having a good time was what was the only thing on his mind in those days. One thing led to another and trouble eventually found Damien. He got in trouble with the law when he was driving some friends home under the influence of alcohol and got into a head-on collision. Thankfully, no one suffered any life threatening injuries. It was the fact that the possibility was there that seemed to shock Damien. After that day, Damien realized he was headed down the wrong road after his father had a talk with him. Before he knew it, he had his head back on straight and was trying to get things lined up to begin his Law Enforcement career.
Damien just graduated high school when he and his classmates had a party to celebrate. The party was huge. People Damien had never even met were there. The majority of the people there were older than him. It was there that he met his first true love, or so he thought. After the night was over. Damien decided to put his previous life behind him in all and move to the big city of Dallas and pursue his dream and attend school there. The plans were spoiled by a shocking call from his girlfriend just days before beginning college. The two had just began to separate due to the long distance relationship they were dealing with. Damien was now living in Dallas while she was hours away. The news would soon make that change when he was informed that she was pregnant. The news was something Damien had never even considered or thought about much less wanted. Being the good man his father raised, Damien moved back to his hometown to support the soon to be mother of his child. These events seemed like it was going to slow down and possibly deny his dreams of attending school. He got a new job at a local factory to make ends meat for the newly born girl, Cadence. The view of life for Damien now changed. His purpose in life was now to protect and raise Cadence.
It was not long after Cadence's first birthday when her mother decided that she could not handle being a mother and left from Damien's and Cadence's life for good. It was heartbreaking for Damien. It now put him in even more of a hole. It seemed hopeless for his career. His father came to shortly after and told him that he and his younger brother, Lucian, would help take care of the girl while he attended school. It was a blessing that he had a family that took care of one another and so he finally got started on his Law Enforcement career path. It was only but a couple of years before he finished school and received his opportunity to work in Dallas County as a Peace Officer. It did not take long before he became recognized among the entire team for his outstanding duty performances and was nominated to be part of the SWAT team. It was there that he shone even brighter and the leader of the SWAT team decided to step down and let Damien take over after showing great leadership skills. It was not exactly what he was looking for, but it was one step closer to his ultimate goal and he knew it would look good on his resume. Damien spent a couple of years in the SWAT team before being offered a job in Miami Florida in the K-9 unit of the law enforcement agency there. His and his daughters pet Akita, Lobo, seemed to draw attention. Damien and Lobo's relationship was strong and the training that Damien had over the dog was needed in Miami. He had been looking for a way out of the leadership position at Dallas and this was the opportunity that he was looking for. He had to travel there with Lobo for the hiring process and show how proficient Lobo's training was. Damien and Lobo finally arrived at Miami on the day before the outbreak happened. The two spent one day traveling the foreign city together. It was the next day that he and his canine companion left for his first job interview that the outbreak happened.
Disability/Fear: Damien has a strong fear of failure and does not like to let people who depend on him down in any shape form or fashion. It may not be apparent typically but Damien is very emotionally attached to anyone he gets accompanied to. This can often be a very big weak spot for him thus why he tries to avoid warming up to new people he meets.
Weapon of Choice:
Damien's weapon of choice is a Colt 1911 pistol. (Pistol)
Equipment:
Damien carries with him his state issued Glock .40 that has a flashlight attachment below the barrel of the gun.
He also has a backpack which he carried most of his luggage during his trip to Florida. Most of the original accessories in the backpack were ditched when sh*t hit the fan and were replaced with bare necessities.
5 Cans of Mixed Tropical Fruit
4 Cans of Campbell Soup
Two change of clothes
3 Extra magazines of ammunition for his Glock .40 (Each holds 16 rounds)
1 Mega Size 3lb Bag of Beef Jerky for Lobo (Regular Beef Jerky)

Before he knew it, he had his head back on straight and was trying to get things lined up to begin his Law Enforcement career.
Damien just graduated high school when he and his classmates had a party to celebrate. The party was huge. People Damien had never even met were there. The majority of the people there were older than him. It was there that he met his first true love, or so he thought. After the night was over. Damien decided to put his previous life behind him in all and move to the big city of Dallas and pursue his dream and attend school there. The plans were spoiled by a shocking call from his girlfriend just days before beginning college. The two had just began to separate due to the long distance relationship they were dealing with. Damien was now living in Dallas while she was hours away. The news would soon make that change when he was informed that she was pregnant. The news was something Damien had never even considered or thought about much less wanted. Being the good man his father raised, Damien moved back to his hometown to support the soon to be mother of his child. These events seemed like it was going to slow down and possibly deny his dreams of attending school. He got a new job at a local factory to make ends meat for the newly born girl, Cadence. The view of life for Damien now changed. His purpose in life was now to protect and raise Cadence.
It was not long after Cadence's first birthday when her mother decided that she could not handle being a mother and left from Damien's and Cadence's life for good. It was heartbreaking for Damien. It now put him in even more of a hole. It seemed hopeless for his career. His father came to shortly after and told him that he and his younger brother, Lucian, would help take care of the girl while he attended school. It was a blessing that he had a family that took care of one another and so he finally got started on his Law Enforcement career path. It was only but a couple of years before he finished school and received his opportunity to work in Dallas County as a Peace Officer. It did not take long before he became recognized among the entire team for his outstanding duty performances and was nominated to be part of the SWAT team. It was there that he shone even brighter and the leader of the SWAT team decided to step down and let Damien take over after showing great leadership skills. It was not exactly what he was looking for, but it was one step closer to his ultimate goal and he knew it would look good on his resume. Damien spent a couple of years in the SWAT team before being offered a job in Miami Florida in the K-9 unit of the law enforcement agency there. His and his daughters pet Akita, Lobo, seemed to draw attention. Damien and Lobo's relationship was strong and the training that Damien had over the dog was needed in Miami. He had been looking for a way out of the leadership position at Dallas and this was the opportunity that he was looking for. He had to travel there with Lobo for the hiring process and show how proficient Lobo's training was. Damien and Lobo finally arrived at Miami on the day before the outbreak happened. The two spent one day traveling the foreign city together. It was the next day that he and his canine companion left for his first job interview that the outbreak happened.
Disability/Fear: Damien has a strong fear of failure and does not like to let people who depend on him down in any shape form or fashion. It may not be apparent typically but Damien is very emotionally attached to anyone he gets accompanied to. This can often be a very big weak spot for him thus why he tries to avoid warming up to new people he meets.
Weapon of Choice:
Damien's weapon of choice is a Colt 1911 pistol. (Pistol)
Equipment:
Damien carries with him his state issued Glock .40 that has a flashlight attachment below the barrel of the gun.
He also has a backpack which he carried most of his luggage during his trip to Florida. Most of the original accessories in the backpack were ditched when sh*t hit the fan and were replaced with bare necessities.
5 Cans of Mixed Tropical Fruit
4 Cans of Campbell Soup
Two change of clothes
3 Extra magazines of ammunition for his Glock .40 (Each holds 16 rounds)
1 Mega Size 3lb Bag of Beef Jerky for Lobo (Regular Beef Jerky)
Yeah or like a former RP i used to be in, they actually made everyone start with two characters and force one of them to die off by the time the two groups met up so that way it would be i guess more action involved and realistic. It sucked when you had to pick one of your characters to kill off though :(
Im not sure if anyones actually mentioned starting it yet. Im amp'd for it to begin though. Can't wait hehe
So me Liah and Koko are in the asylum group so far?
Is that the way were gonna do this? Im down for whatever as well so don't matter to me :)
