Eirca- and I'm not letting my people get killed, sorry.
Ronald- OK, I understand... This is going to suck.
Ronald looks at the hole. He pulls out a knife and a 9mm.
Irma- so you were armed the entire time and never told anyone?
Ronald- you never asked.
Ronald crawls through the hole.
Irma- fair enough...
Helen- so what now?
Veronica- we wait.
Everyone walks around until they find a chair or a place to sit on the floor. Kyle gets curious and walks past Ronald's computer. What he sees amazes him, he's not a smart guy but he understands this.
Kyle- hey guys... Might want to see this.
Everyone joins Kyle at the computer. It reads:
virus xvIII
extreme biohazard
origin unknown
form: weaponized
US CDC 2014
notes: reanimates the dead, airborne
Kyle just stares in awe...
Irma- weaponized? That means someone did this on purpose.
Erica- but who?
Irma- doesn't say.
Kyle- check those papers. It might be there.
The begin shuffling through the papers. Only one name comes up: Ronald Travis, weaponized disease specialist.
Helen- fuck...
Veronica- you means the entire time we've been helping the guy who's caused this?
Kyle- we can't point fingers yet, we don't know anything.
Irma- he's been out there for awhile, should we help him?
Erica- fucking let him rot...
Kyle- we can fucking leave him, if there's a chance at ending it, he's it.
Veronica- and what's to say he's not just making worse?
Kyle- he's risking his life right now...
Helen- guys...
Kyle- and you can't just think that he wants it worse! He's stuck here to!
Veronica- if he started it he dose are if he dies!
Helen- GUYS!!!!
Kyle- what?
Helen- Seth just went through the hole...
Veronica- what? Why?
Helen- I dont-
bang
A gunshot goes off and ronald comes back through the hole.
Helen- where Seth?
Ronald- who?
Veronica- Seth, he went out to look for you.
Ronald- you mean...
Erica- you fucking killed him?
Ronald- he had a gun on me, I though he was a bandit or something. I swear.

Christmas day
somewhere along the Canadian boarder
a ragtag group of the remaining Canadian and American soldiers are … morein a building, siting silently as the leader talks. She's been around for awhile and knows how to get things done... a real force to be reckoned with. her name is Sydney.
Sydney- thank you all for coming out tonight, we have a few important announcements but first, i'll let my second in command speak. Megan?
megan walks beside Sydney.
Megan- first of all, merry Christmas. its been a hard fight to get here and its not over yet. as long as we work together we will be able to survive. we know that you've all worked very hard these past years so in remembrance of all we've gained and all we've lost, we have decided to suspend all work until tomorrow, you have the rest of the day off. enjoy it, you've earned it. thank you, back to you Sydney.

the man foolishly turns around, Dan runs forward and grabs the pipe. the man realizes a little to late what was happening. he turns around only to see a twisted metal object make contact with his skull. he falls to the ground, blood gushing out from beneath the gasmask.

Dan- what? time out?
Susan- he probably has a sever mental injury now. he doesn't know what's happening.
Dan looks down at the man, he's squirming in pain, but isn't getting up.
Dan- he buddy, whats 2+2?

Dan- yes, now who are you working for?
???- a group that wants those people dead.
Dan- why did you join?
???- no choice...
Dan- what's your name?
???- corporal Armstrong.... second in command of the rebellion...
Dan turns back to the group.
Dan- hes the second in command, he might know where their attacking from, we can stop it. we can save the camp.
Susan- what ever you feel right.
Bianca- I Zayne is going to fight, so a I.
Dan turns back to the man.
Dan- why are you attacking?
Armstrong- an old rivalry. oww... a year ago on Christmas day we tried to end it, so now were finishing the job.
Dan- where are you attacking from?
Armstrong- the west and south mainly, we have smaller forces trying to flank them.
Dan- so that's why you were here.
Armstrong- yes.
dan turns back to the group
Dan- come on, we need to move if were going to help stop this.
Armstrong- what about me? I can help. or do you just want me to go home?

the crys for help continue, piercing through the sounds of gunfire.
Megan-...fuck. we cant just sit here and let someone die, especially if their one of ours. lets go.
Zayne- ok, I think they're coming from over here.
Megan- ok, lets go.
Zayne gets up from behind cover but the second he dose bullets fly all around him, not hitting him. he dives back behind cover.
Zayne- this is going to be harder than I thought.
Megan- we can us those barrels over their for cover then we can move behind that building.
Megan points out a few metal barrels that are a few yards away.
Zayne- your gun loaded?
Megan- yup.
Zayne- lets go.
Zayne doesn't waste any time, the sprints across to the barrels, he can hear the bullets hitting the ground around him but he makes it to the barrels. Zayne looks back at Megan and motions for her to come. Megan gets up and runs, half way across she trips, Zayne sees a man lining up his shot. Zayne lifts his rifle and nails the guy in the head. Megan gets back up and continues to run towards the barrels. eventually she is safe behind the barrels.
Megan- thanks.
Zayne- like I was going to let you die.
Megan sits and catches her breath for a moment then points to a near by building.
Megan- there, that should provide enough cover. that person shouldn't be far from their.
Zayne sprints behind the building and Megan follows, soon they round the corner of the building, there is a wounded man laying against the building. he's wearing a gasmask and has pistol.
Zayne- Hey man, don't shoot. were here to help.
theres no response and Zayne moves closer. the man dosent move. when Zayne reaches the man he nudges him. he dosent respond. the gunshot is non fatal, just in his shoulder. he must be passed out.
Megan- theres a door to this building over here, we can move him inside. it will be safer there.
Zayne- yeah, good idea.
Megan opens the door and Zayne drags the man inside. Megan flips on a light switch.
Zayne- what now?
Megan- why not figure out who this guy is.
Megan takes off the mask and drops the mask. she drops to her knees and starts to cry.
Zayne- hey, what's wrong? do you know this guy?
Megan- hes... hes...
???- the same guy... that started this...
Zayne jumps back and draws his gun.
???- oww... no need for that... im not armed.
Megan- fucking shoot him!
???- come on Megan... is that really what you want?
Megan- yes. it is. now shoot this fucker.
???- is it what Sydney would have wanted?
just the name was enough to make Megan cry, she just couldn't control it.
???- look, if it makes you feel any better. we didn't mean to kill her. we only wanted to kill you, now we have come back to finish it.
Megan- im going to kill you all... every last one of you.
???- id like to see you try. you cant even get ahold of yourself, the last person that held you together was murdered. remember?
Megan- shut up...
???- you know, I remember Sydney saying she would kill me if I tried to hurt you. now did that work?
Megan- SHUT UP!
Megan jumps on top the man and begins to strangle him.

Ronald takes a deep breath, and then focuses. trying to remember.
around two years ago
California CDC research center
Ronald didn't like the CDC, it wasn't his first choice. but his boss told him he had to. the building was one the world foremost research facility, with everything a modern day disease researcher would need, including a mini-fridge! ok, so in the truth was really crappy and rundown. but he couldn't say that because he'd get fired. he did his job, inspected equipment. he went into the boiler room and an alarm sounded, at first he thought it was a fire alarm that was rigged to go off when the door opened so he just ignore it and went in. then he inspected the boiler and went to exit the room, but the door wouldn't open. so he kicked it a few times, yelled a little. then he heard the gunshots. the door flew open, a man had a gun aimed at his head. the man took one look and then turned to leave.
Ronald- what the hell is happening?
???- a disease escaped confinement, the worlds ending son.
the man looked back at Ronald again.
???- fuck... your infected.
Ronald- what dose that mean?
???-you weren't wearing a mask, meaning your infected. im going to have to kill you.
Ronald- wait. I can fix this.
???- how?
Ronald didn't answer but only went strait to the quarantine room, he took every paper and every file. downloaded everything off the computers. and left. he didn't know much but was sure he could figure it out.
Kyle- so you don't even know what your doing?
Ronald- no, but that's not important, about any half wit can do it nowadays its all computerized.
Irma- you've been posing all this time, putting us all at risk?
Ronald- did I ever say I thought I couldn't do it?
Erica- you a fucking building inspector, not a scientist! how do you expect to fix this?
Ronald- follow the instructions... there all on the computer, whoever did this also had a plan to end it. So, your not going to kill me right?

Megan falls to the ground, shot in the back. Zayne rushes forward to help.

Zayne freezes in his tracks. the guy they just killed had just gotten up and shot Megan. he had a gun pointed at Zayne.
Zayne- you fucking...

the man shoves the gun into the back of zaynes head. Zayne has no choice but to do what hes told. hes lead through the half destroyed camp and into what was the meeting hall. a lot of people are in there, lying face down on the floor with their hands tied. multiple guards are making sure no one trys to run. its a hostage situation.
???- hey, someone got this runt! ive got bigger fish to fry.
the man takes his gun and hits Zayne in the back of the head. the next time he wakes up hes staring at a cement floor and is unable to move. he looks to his left. theres a person that looks like their going to shit themselves, if he hasent already. to his right a woman was staring at him, looking deep into his eyes as if trying to pull out his thoughts. then Zayne noticed the blood, that woman was dead. "never look right". he told himself as he closed his eyes and prayed to God someone was coming to help. somewhere in the back of the room someone sneezed, followed by a gunshot.

Erica- fuck this. do your stupid experiments. but were not helping.
Ronald- what do you mean?
Erica- were not staying. you lied to us. your lucky im not killing you. lets go.
one by one everyone goes out through the hole. kyle is the last one through, before he goes Ronald pulls out his gun and hands it to kyle.
Ronald- take it, youll need it more than me. trust me. and by the way, I am a real scientist. that story I told you was bullshit.
Kyle- why?
Ronald- no time to explain, youll understand later.
Ronald turns away and goes back to his computer. kyle slips through the hole. out on the street there are no walkers, surprising, they were all over the place earlier. they move west out of DC and down a main road. after awhile Kyle look back at the city.
boom
a large explosion sends a mushroom cloud into the air,
veronica- looks like your friend failed, Kyle.
Kyle thinks about what he had said.
Kyle- no. this was his plan. he didn't lie, he was a real scientist. he just wanted us to leave so he could...
Irma- come on Kyle, you of all people don't believe in this bullshit do you?
Kyle- we needed it airborne somehow!
Helen- we can discuss this later, we need to move, that explosion will draw walkers.
the group silently agrees and moves quickly down the road. soon they come upon what looks like an abandoned city, no walkers or anything. even looks like some walls were set up.
Erica- looks defendable, come on, lets go.
Kyle- wait, don't-
to late. Erica steps on something and is soon hanging upside down by her foot.
Erica- fuck, get me down!
Kyle moves in to help but an arrow sprouts from the ground in front of his feet. a man is standing on top the wall with a bow.
???- don't move, ill cut your friend down. and we can make a deal.
Irma- whats your game?
???- my game? I want something you have, and in exchange for that you get the safety of living in this nice city. my name is jake, thanks for asking.

Kyle- why?
Ronald- no time to explain, youll understand later.

Dan- no, not at all. but knowing something is better than not knowing.
Susan- fine, but if he tries anything im going to shoot him.
they all get up to leave, as they walk away dan looks back at the carnage. multiple bodys strewn across the road, shrapnel and blood everywhere. man, they made a mess. this perfect nightmare was only missing one thing, walkers. they were no where in sight. the noise should have brought them, and the people who weren't shot in the head should've come back. but it didn't happen. maybe there were no walkers around, and maybe they weren't turning because it was just taking longer in the cold. but, what if... all the 'what if's' poured through dans mind but he had no time to dwell on his thoughts, their "friend" took them on a short cut and were soon back at the camp. it looks like a nightmare, craters and bodys everywhere. but still no walkers.
Bianca- hey, theres someone over there.
Bianca points to a man who has another man at gunpoint, the guy had a gun driven into the back of the other guys head. he was leading him somewhere.
Susan- Zayne couldn't have survived this.
Dan- were going to find him. but right now we need to get inside.
Bianca- that building over there. it looks safe.
Bianca points to a small building nearby. the group agrees and move in, careful to not get spotted. they reach the building and throw the door open, everyone piles in. Dan looks around, its as bad in here as everywhere else. theres a groaning noise, at first Dan thought the walkers had finally found them, then he saw Megan laying on to floor. shes been shot in the back, but shes still alive. Armstrong moves closer, he seems better now. like he actually remembers thing now.
Armstrong- let me help, I was a field medic.
Bianca- why would you help us? your working for them.
Armstrong- im with you now. all it took was one good smack across the head to make me come to my sences. and I need to make it up to her, for what we did to her and Sydney.
he shivers as if the thought of what he did horrified him. he looks at Dan waiting for him to tall him what to do.
[bring him along]
Dan- get up, your coming with us.
Susan- you seriously trust this guy?
Dan- no, not at all. but knowing something… more is better than not knowing.

Kyle- fine, fine. we can talk. just cut her down. and don't try to take my foot off with any more arrows.
Jake- fine. take the fun out of everything.
Jake takes out a knife and cuts the rope that was suspending Erica, she falls face first onto the road. she gets up looking pissed, but if she had anything to say she was keeping it to herself.
Jake- go ahead and come over the wall, slowly.
one at a time everyone takes turns climbing over the wall, when Erica goes up she gives Jake a very distasteful look. kyle is the last one up, after that Jake leads them through the town, careful to point out all his traps so no one steps on the or sets them off. this guy is very resourceful, taking anything as ordinary as a screwdriver and turning it into a trap waiting for an unsuspecting walker or bandit to walking into it. soon Jake ushers everyone into a small building on the corner. by the looks of it, it used to be a bar. Jake walks behind the counter and reaches for something.
Kyle- you have this place pretty well defended.
Jake- yeah. I do. it took awhile but now, its like the apocalyptic fort Knox.
Jake grabs a bottle and takes the top off. Whiskey.
Jake- if you haven't figured out yet, I don't mean any harm. you help me, I help you.
Jake takes another drink of the whiskey.
Jake- the way I see it, we just stay here until its over. however long that is.
Erica- what about walkers? or bandits?
Jake takes another drink and thinks for a moment.
Jake- nah, we don't get bandits around here and the walls keep walkers out. I don't make a lot of noise so they have no reason to come here. and that stunt someone just pulled off in DC got their attention. every walker in 100 miles must be headed towards DC right now, not here.
Erica- but what if we get attacked?
Jake- then we go to the armory get some guns and kill them. easy.
Jake finishes off the bottle and sets it on the table. he pulls out another from behind the counter.
Helen- how much of that do you have?
Jake takes a drink and thinks about the question.
Jake- this town had multiple bars in it. and when the apocalypse began, no one seemed interested in staying around to get drunk. so I have it all. Why? you want some? I have more than just whiskey.
Veronica- is it really the smartest thing to be doing to get drunk?
Jake- nope. but I don't care! I have lots of walls and traps. keeps them away. no bandit will ever get over the wall and no walker will ever get close.
Comments
Thank you.
Well, i hope they get well soon :P
(Cure group)
[Fuck you, get it yourself]
Kyle- I ain't going out there...
Eirca- and I'm not letting my people get killed, sorry.
Ronald- OK, I understand... This is going to suck.
Ronald looks at the hole. He pulls out a knife and a 9mm.
Irma- so you were armed the entire time and never told anyone?
Ronald- you never asked.
Ronald crawls through the hole.
Irma- fair enough...
Helen- so what now?
Veronica- we wait.
Everyone walks around until they find a chair or a place to sit on the floor. Kyle gets curious and walks past Ronald's computer. What he sees amazes him, he's not a smart guy but he understands this.
Kyle- hey guys... Might want to see this.
Everyone joins Kyle at the computer. It reads:
virus xvIII
extreme biohazard
origin unknown
form: weaponized
US CDC 2014
notes: reanimates the dead, airborne
Kyle just stares in awe...
Irma- weaponized? That means someone did this on purpose.
Erica- but who?
Irma- doesn't say.
Kyle- check those papers. It might be there.
The begin shuffling through the papers. Only one name comes up: Ronald Travis, weaponized disease specialist.
Helen- fuck...
Veronica- you means the entire time we've been helping the guy who's caused this?
Kyle- we can't point fingers yet, we don't know anything.
Irma- he's been out there for awhile, should we help him?
Erica- fucking let him rot...
Kyle- we can fucking leave him, if there's a chance at ending it, he's it.
Veronica- and what's to say he's not just making worse?
Kyle- he's risking his life right now...
Helen- guys...
Kyle- and you can't just think that he wants it worse! He's stuck here to!
Veronica- if he started it he dose are if he dies!
Helen- GUYS!!!!
Kyle- what?
Helen- Seth just went through the hole...
Veronica- what? Why?
Helen- I dont-
bang
A gunshot goes off and ronald comes back through the hole.
Helen- where Seth?
Ronald- who?
Veronica- Seth, he went out to look for you.
Ronald- you mean...
Erica- you fucking killed him?
Ronald- he had a gun on me, I though he was a bandit or something. I swear.
Helen- then why did you weaponize a virus?
Ronald- I di-
Erica- I'm done with you.
Erica pulls out a gun.
Ronald- just let me talk! Please!
[Let him talk]
[Kill him]
[Kill him] - Fuck him, he killed Seth. >:c

[Let him talk] What about raping him? XD

Sorry, I haven't visited these forums in a while so I couldn't vote until now
but yeah:
Go look for the source of the screams
[grab the pipe]
???- I aint askin again, now put the damn weapons down.
dan- hey whats that behind you?
???- huh? where?
the man foolishly turns around, Dan runs forward and grabs the pipe. the man realizes a little to late what was happening. he turns around only to see a twisted metal object make contact with his skull. he falls to the ground, blood gushing out from beneath the gasmask.
???- uhhh. fuuuck. that hurt... I quit. time out...
Dan- what? time out?
Susan- he probably has a sever mental injury now. he doesn't know what's happening.
Dan looks down at the man, he's squirming in pain, but isn't getting up.
Dan- he buddy, whats 2+2?
???- four?
Dan- yes, now who are you working for?
???- a group that wants those people dead.
Dan- why did you join?
???- no choice...
Dan- what's your name?
???- corporal Armstrong.... second in command of the rebellion...
Dan turns back to the group.
Dan- hes the second in command, he might know where their attacking from, we can stop it. we can save the camp.
Susan- what ever you feel right.
Bianca- I Zayne is going to fight, so a I.
Dan turns back to the man.
Dan- why are you attacking?
Armstrong- an old rivalry. oww... a year ago on Christmas day we tried to end it, so now were finishing the job.
Dan- where are you attacking from?
Armstrong- the west and south mainly, we have smaller forces trying to flank them.
Dan- so that's why you were here.
Armstrong- yes.
dan turns back to the group
Dan- come on, we need to move if were going to help stop this.
Armstrong- what about me? I can help. or do you just want me to go home?
choice
[bring him along]~ he may know something
[shoot him]~ go home. stay there...
[bring him along]
oh God why.....
(Canadian boarder)
[go look for the source of the screams]~ this one was decided by a coin flip...
the crys for help continue, piercing through the sounds of gunfire.
Megan-...fuck. we cant just sit here and let someone die, especially if their one of ours. lets go.
Zayne- ok, I think they're coming from over here.
Megan- ok, lets go.
Zayne gets up from behind cover but the second he dose bullets fly all around him, not hitting him. he dives back behind cover.
Zayne- this is going to be harder than I thought.
Megan- we can us those barrels over their for cover then we can move behind that building.
Megan points out a few metal barrels that are a few yards away.
Zayne- your gun loaded?
Megan- yup.
Zayne- lets go.
Zayne doesn't waste any time, the sprints across to the barrels, he can hear the bullets hitting the ground around him but he makes it to the barrels. Zayne looks back at Megan and motions for her to come. Megan gets up and runs, half way across she trips, Zayne sees a man lining up his shot. Zayne lifts his rifle and nails the guy in the head. Megan gets back up and continues to run towards the barrels. eventually she is safe behind the barrels.
Megan- thanks.
Zayne- like I was going to let you die.
Megan sits and catches her breath for a moment then points to a near by building.
Megan- there, that should provide enough cover. that person shouldn't be far from their.
Zayne sprints behind the building and Megan follows, soon they round the corner of the building, there is a wounded man laying against the building. he's wearing a gasmask and has pistol.
Zayne- Hey man, don't shoot. were here to help.
theres no response and Zayne moves closer. the man dosent move. when Zayne reaches the man he nudges him. he dosent respond. the gunshot is non fatal, just in his shoulder. he must be passed out.
Megan- theres a door to this building over here, we can move him inside. it will be safer there.
Zayne- yeah, good idea.
Megan opens the door and Zayne drags the man inside. Megan flips on a light switch.
Zayne- what now?
Megan- why not figure out who this guy is.
Megan takes off the mask and drops the mask. she drops to her knees and starts to cry.
Zayne- hey, what's wrong? do you know this guy?
Megan- hes... hes...
???- the same guy... that started this...
Zayne jumps back and draws his gun.
???- oww... no need for that... im not armed.
Megan- fucking shoot him!
???- come on Megan... is that really what you want?
Megan- yes. it is. now shoot this fucker.
???- is it what Sydney would have wanted?
just the name was enough to make Megan cry, she just couldn't control it.
???- look, if it makes you feel any better. we didn't mean to kill her. we only wanted to kill you, now we have come back to finish it.
Megan- im going to kill you all... every last one of you.
???- id like to see you try. you cant even get ahold of yourself, the last person that held you together was murdered. remember?
Megan- shut up...
???- you know, I remember Sydney saying she would kill me if I tried to hurt you. now did that work?
Megan- SHUT UP!
Megan jumps on top the man and begins to strangle him.
???- gah... stop...help...

Let him die
(cure group)
let him talk
Kyle- fine, what's your story?
Ronald takes a deep breath, and then focuses. trying to remember.
around two years ago
California CDC research center
Ronald didn't like the CDC, it wasn't his first choice. but his boss told him he had to. the building was one the world foremost research facility, with everything a modern day disease researcher would need, including a mini-fridge! ok, so in the truth was really crappy and rundown. but he couldn't say that because he'd get fired. he did his job, inspected equipment. he went into the boiler room and an alarm sounded, at first he thought it was a fire alarm that was rigged to go off when the door opened so he just ignore it and went in. then he inspected the boiler and went to exit the room, but the door wouldn't open. so he kicked it a few times, yelled a little. then he heard the gunshots. the door flew open, a man had a gun aimed at his head. the man took one look and then turned to leave.
Ronald- what the hell is happening?
???- a disease escaped confinement, the worlds ending son.
the man looked back at Ronald again.
???- fuck... your infected.
Ronald- what dose that mean?
???-you weren't wearing a mask, meaning your infected. im going to have to kill you.
Ronald- wait. I can fix this.
???- how?
Ronald didn't answer but only went strait to the quarantine room, he took every paper and every file. downloaded everything off the computers. and left. he didn't know much but was sure he could figure it out.
Kyle- so you don't even know what your doing?
Ronald- no, but that's not important, about any half wit can do it nowadays its all computerized.
Irma- you've been posing all this time, putting us all at risk?
Ronald- did I ever say I thought I couldn't do it?
Erica- you a fucking building inspector, not a scientist! how do you expect to fix this?
Ronald- follow the instructions... there all on the computer, whoever did this also had a plan to end it. So, your not going to kill me right?
choice
[kill him]
[let him work]
[let him work]
Amazing Chapter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Kill him] - He killed Seth >:c
hmmh...
Let him work
[Stop Megan]
[let him die]
???- gah...help..
Zayne just stands staring. he decides to not do anything, this guys getting what he deserves.
Megan- this is for Sydney.
???-st-...
the man stops moving and Megan stands. she faces Zayne, she has a wild look on her face. Zayne cant help but to look at the body.
Megan- don't feel bad, he got what he deserved.
Zayne- I guess so, but still.
Megan- you aren't going soft on them, are you? you saw what they did to our western division.
Zayne- yeah, that was fucked up. where did they even get those kind of weapons?
Megan- they-
bang
Megan falls to the ground, shot in the back. Zayne rushes forward to help.
???-don't. move.
Zayne freezes in his tracks. the guy they just killed had just gotten up and shot Megan. he had a gun pointed at Zayne.
Zayne- you fucking...
???- enough. now move.
the man shoves the gun into the back of zaynes head. Zayne has no choice but to do what hes told. hes lead through the half destroyed camp and into what was the meeting hall. a lot of people are in there, lying face down on the floor with their hands tied. multiple guards are making sure no one trys to run. its a hostage situation.
???- hey, someone got this runt! ive got bigger fish to fry.
the man takes his gun and hits Zayne in the back of the head. the next time he wakes up hes staring at a cement floor and is unable to move. he looks to his left. theres a person that looks like their going to shit themselves, if he hasent already. to his right a woman was staring at him, looking deep into his eyes as if trying to pull out his thoughts. then Zayne noticed the blood, that woman was dead. "never look right". he told himself as he closed his eyes and prayed to God someone was coming to help. somewhere in the back of the room someone sneezed, followed by a gunshot. "im totally going to die." he said.
Well this is a fucked up situation
Amazing work dude!
Name: Jake Tucker
age: 30
appearance: Black big beard, short black hair, brown eyes, wears an eyepatch on his left eye because it was shot by a bandit. Wears a grey hoodie and black jeans. He usually just keeps the hood on his head
personality: Crazy, ultimate survival skills, lonely, depressed
weapons: He has pretty much everything.
other qualitys: Very good to set up traps
background: He was living in the woods before the apocalypse started. He managed to live there for a good amount of time until the zombies came and made him leave the place. His family died. After that, he managed to make a small village his own. He put many traps and walls to stop the zombies from coming there. He has never had any visitors there. He speaks to himself, but his survival skills are high. He's really depressed and lonely. He drinks a lot of alcohol, but he's not violent.
Thanks for the charecter!
It is wonderfully fucked up....

Erica- fuck this. do your stupid experiments. but were not helping.
Ronald- what do you mean?
Erica- were not staying. you lied to us. your lucky im not killing you. lets go.
one by one everyone goes out through the hole. kyle is the last one through, before he goes Ronald pulls out his gun and hands it to kyle.
Ronald- take it, youll need it more than me. trust me. and by the way, I am a real scientist. that story I told you was bullshit.
Kyle- why?
Ronald- no time to explain, youll understand later.
Ronald turns away and goes back to his computer. kyle slips through the hole. out on the street there are no walkers, surprising, they were all over the place earlier. they move west out of DC and down a main road. after awhile Kyle look back at the city.
boom
a large explosion sends a mushroom cloud into the air,
veronica- looks like your friend failed, Kyle.
Kyle thinks about what he had said.
Kyle- no. this was his plan. he didn't lie, he was a real scientist. he just wanted us to leave so he could...
Irma- come on Kyle, you of all people don't believe in this bullshit do you?
Kyle- we needed it airborne somehow!
Helen- we can discuss this later, we need to move, that explosion will draw walkers.
the group silently agrees and moves quickly down the road. soon they come upon what looks like an abandoned city, no walkers or anything. even looks like some walls were set up.
Erica- looks defendable, come on, lets go.
Kyle- wait, don't-
to late. Erica steps on something and is soon hanging upside down by her foot.
Erica- fuck, get me down!
Kyle moves in to help but an arrow sprouts from the ground in front of his feet. a man is standing on top the wall with a bow.
???- don't move, ill cut your friend down. and we can make a deal.
Irma- whats your game?
???- my game? I want something you have, and in exchange for that you get the safety of living in this nice city. my name is jake, thanks for asking.
