Terrence stands, stretching. "I think I'll go find a nook to sleep in. G'night, everyone." Giving one last smile to Nikki, Terrence walks to the nearest non-wooden chair. Throwing his legs over one arm and resting his head against the other, he steeples his hands and closes his eyes.

Veronica finds it very interesting to hear from Terrence of how others have managed all of this, then answer his question with "That's a story for another time, when I've gotten all this mess off of me." and a smile when Rayne gives her the directions. "Good night, Terrence, I want to hear more tomorrow.", she says over her shoulder as she turns back to Rayne.

She smiles and feels exhilarated by how homely this place felt all of a sudden. Nikki moves over to Rayne to give her a hug as thanks but stops herself, realizing that she'd better get that shower first. "Thanks, I owe you one!", she says before wandering off, trying to remember the relatively simple instructions.

When she gets up on the second floor, all of a sudden it doesn't feel as homely. The shower beckons, though, so she pushes onwards, staring down any frightening shadow or flickering light until it seems safe to move again. When she finally reaches the showers she trembles, being re-energized with every drop of water on her. Nikki finally starts to feel like a real person again, instead of the moving garbage pile she'd considered herself to be during this whole life altering experience.

She keeps both eyes and ears open, though, stopping at every odd sound to listen if it's just the wind or one of the creatures out to steal her limbs.

OOC: Edit: Lots of silly typos.

Vinny's eyes fly open at the start of the sound from the ceiling. He automatically takes out his pistol, turns off the safety, cocks it, and aims upward before realizing that it's just the sound of water hitting tile. "Finally, a sound that isn't foreboding." he mutters. Knocking comes from the door. Slow, deliberate knocking. "I got it." Vinny says. He goes to the door, removes the hatch, and opens it. A zombie and it's posse of other zombies awaits. The lead zed grabs Vinny's shoulders and begins to pull him through the half-open doorway. He raises his pistol and fires forward without looking, splattering gray matter on the half-dozen assembled zombies. He moves back into the building and shuts the doors once more. "Anyone else see that!? The things just knocked on the door!"

"Not at all hun. If you need anything, call for me."
Rayne tells her before she leaves up the stairs.

"Sweet girl." She says in a low voice. Thompson looks at her with suspicion.
"I don't think I've ever heard you say that of someone." His brows are pointing in every direction possible.
"Well, she's been through a lot. I'm surprised she's sane. Strong people like that are rare."
"That's not what you said! I think-"

Thompson is interrupted by a crash. It sounds like the crushing of stone. Rayne shoots out of her chair to peer out the window towards the direction of the sound. Far away, a church is collapsing, the dust moving in a cloud to engulf everything in a large radius. Rayne shuts the curtains and steps back to her chair.

"Church collapsed." She told her startled companion.

"Huh. I do hope that won't happen when we get to the-" Thompson stops in his track. He purses his lips and takes out a small, black fabric pouch of his pocket. He looks intensely at it, and fondles it hypnotically in one hand.

"Oh, stop it silly. Worrying does you no good. And you've got all the good luck charm you'll ever need right here!" Rayne puts out her chest and points at herself in an attempt at humour.

"Heh. Yeah, you're right." He looks up and puts his pouch back, but remains contemplating. Rayne leans back and caresses her gun casually when Vinny suddenly gets up and opens the door.

"What the fuck are you doing?!" Rayne screams as she bolts out of the chair. Brain substance fly into the room as Vinny blows one away and shuts the door.
"Well yeah! They constantly evolve, nitwit!" She smacks him on the back of his head.
"Don't do that again!"

OOC: We're in Vegas. It's nearly impossible to get out of the city now.

"Hey, when I hear knocking, I generally think it's somebody who needs help. That could have been a living, breathing person, and you mean to tell me that I should have just left them to die? I mean, serio-" Vinny's rant is interrupted by gunshots, followed by multiple thuds. "Now, what?!" he says without moving. "Could somebody please let me in? Please?" comes from outside. "So, you wanna get it this time?" Vinny says to Rayne.

"Aye, when there is someone TALKING, I would assume it's a human. Before opening on instinct, however, I shall illuminate you we have a nice little invention called WIN-DOWS!" (not made of win)
She yells at Vinny before turning her attention to the door.

"It's like fucking rush hour..." She mumbles, drawing her handgun.
"Go ahead, I insist. I'll cover you."

Finally Michael and his girlfriend Jessica left the safety of his panic room needing supplies. Michael ran outside of the house shotgun first and blew the heads off of two zombies. Looking around he though he heard in the distance screams. Michael thought he heard someone yelling at a Vinny. Not knowing what else to do Michael ran in that direction with Jessica. Michael continued down the road killing Zombies when he heard a scream from behind. He turned around and saw that a psychopath in a suit was holding a revolver at Jessica's head. He turned and held the shotgun at the psychopath.

The psychopath introduced him self as Billy.

"I want your gun and all food and supplies you have or I'll blast this bitches head off" Billy screamed.
"If I give you my gun I'll be defenseless and I dont have food or water thats why I'm out here" replies Michael in a panic.
Billy replied "I'll give you to the count of 5 before I blast her. 1,2"
"Please Wait!"
"3,4"

And out of being scared Michael shot the shotgun at Billy's head but skimming Jessica's neck.
Billy's head popped like a watermelon but Jessica was bleeding badly. Michael held her and cried telling her he loved her and everything would be alright. Alerted by the gunshots a hoard of zombies came running out. Jessica told Michael to go and he ran. When he got about 50 meters away he turned and saw Jessica being eaten. He then saw her stand back up.

He ran until he heard the voices again and saw the police station wondering how to get in...

A few minutes earlier

"Alright." Vinny says with a sigh, too tired to muster up an argument. He opens the door. A decidedly human-looking man stands outside. "Oh, finally. What took you so long?" the man says as he begins to step inside. Without warning, a zombie falls from the roof and lands on top of him. The zed bites large chunks from the guy's neck. Vinny fires off a round, and the freshly killed zombie rolls off. Vinny drags the dying man inside. He props him up against the wall just inside, while Thompson closes and bars the door. Vinny kneels over the man. "What's your name?" "Max" the man groans. He spins off into nonsense. "I...found...Emily." "Who?" "She's....dead." Max groans before vomiting blood and collapsing onto the ground. Vinny mercifully puts a bullet in the man's head before he gets a chance to turn. Vinny starts to ask what to do with the body, but is interrupted by a shotgun blast sounding from the street. "What now!?" he yells in disbelief.

OOC: The man is Max Weston. He went up for auction and nobody claimed him. Read his character sheet on the front page [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/362.77935?page=1] to get a better understanding of what he was talking about.

"Help! Help" Michael starts to scream.
After seeing that man get chunks of neck ripped off Michael stars freaking out. He randomly starts to fire off shells into the distance while screaming dementedly hoping someone near by while here him and come out.
Standing near what looked to him like a Police Station Michael saw 3 zombies come to him.
The first one dove at him and Michael blasted his head off. Same for the second.
Then when the third was shamble towards Michael he cocked his shotgun to kill it, but there was no ammo. He checked his pockets but couldn't find a single shell...

OOC: I was thinking the same thing, but I had to take care of Max, and now an endless flow of people is showing up at the station.

Vinny, taking Rayne's advice, peaks through a window. He sees the scene unfolding outside. "Hey! In here!" he shouts.

Michael took out his knife and stabbed the the zombie in the head. The zombie was about to bite Michael and he gets blood all over him. Sobbing he hears a man shout "Hey! In here!"

Michael turns around and beats on the police station door to get in and Vinny opens the door and lets him in.

Vinny introduces himself and everyone there and Michael tells his story while sobbing and covered in blood.

Vinny tells Michael that he looks like hell and Michael agrees.

Michael sat in a corner awhile thinking about what had happened and then he finally got up to take a piss then go to sleep

Hey, I'm enjoying them. Keep it up; Blue's quite the interesting young lady. Or old lady. Whatever she is.

Terrence mutters under his breath, watching the man stumble through his story. Closing his eyes, he tries to ignore the sounds of sobbing and wailing, along with the moans and screams from outside. "Why the hell can't they just let me sleep..." are Terrence's last thoughts as he slowly slips into unconsciousness.

<spoiler=fullmetalangel>Let's make one thing clear. On the Escapist, there IS no such thing as a post in an RP that is too long. Take a peek at Ratings War II: Set the World on Fire for confirmation of this. Or, even better; Star Wars: Queen of Hearts. Now drown in epic walls of text. All done? Good.
We LOVE character development here, and you obviously have skill. Keep it up!

What the fuck, Jesus Christ.

Rayne was on the verge of screaming this, but disciplined herself with a slap to her cheek. What disturbed her was that they were overflowing with people. That wouldn't be a problem if they were useful, but how the fuck did people like this survive in all of this? She has had to fight her ASS off to live this long, and she was one of the best for all she knew. She had the highest grades possible when she left the army in favour of taking care of her newly formed family before the shit hit the fan.

Surrendering to an abyssal sigh, she resumed her guard on the fucking chair, watching the fucking windows and all that. She would have no more of dealing with civilians right now.

Jesus...

Fondling her handgun, it calmed her. Thompson knew the woman, and saw what no one else could. He put his hand on hers and gave a stern look into her eyes. She looked into his for a second, and resigned.

Fine.

Nikki peeks out in the corridor before rushing towards the dressing room in her birthday suit. Her now serenely flowing hair the only thing hiding any of her, but beautifully so, perfectly complementing her subtle features, the frame to the work of art that is Veronica.

Something stops her in her tracks. She looks around, thinking; What is this feeling? Her breathing slows, reaching a halt and she listens, then looks around. A face. She jolts as the window at the far end of has one of those despicable creatures staring back at her. Completely frozen, she stares at it in a mix of wonder and fear. They can climb too? She instinctively covers herself up, then shrugs it off. A smile even creeps it way to her face. Well, under the circumstances... Veronica gives a very short giggle, then just strolls off to the dressing room.

She tries locker after locker, some of them locked. Nikki takes great care in not slamming them shut, she assumes at least a few downstairs would be sleeping by now and doesn't want to wake them, nor anyone rushing up here with guns. Finally she finds the uniform. It looks like something she'd never have worn in her life, but... things were different now. She slips it all on, humming as she does, finding the mere feel of clean clothes invigorating in and of itself, even if it doesn't fit perfectly. A few finishing touches on her hair as she finds a mirror. She does a few classic police poses, then stops herself. Grow up! This is not the time!

Veronica almost skips along down the corridor until she notices the creature in the window is gone, giving her both a cold realization and chill down her spine. A sigh escapes her and slouches the rest of the bit, until the stairs. She puts on her best smile before going down in her new outfit. "Well?" She asks as the first pair of eyes turns her way.

Vinny leaves Michael and goes back to Max's body. "Hey, Thompson, Keep me covered while I get rid of this body. "Alright." Thompson says as he opens the door and aims a pistol outward. Once again, the streets are empty. He drags the body outside and leaves it on the curb. Then, he quickly steps back inside. He says to Thompson "We can use the body as a trap. The zombies show up, they start eating the body, and we pick them off from the windows." "I guess..." Thompson says, not too sure about this plan. Vinny reaches for a Tommy gun and heads upstairs. He bumps into Nikki on the stairs. "Sorry about that." he says as he continues to the second floor. He goes into an office and peers through the window.
