Angel with a Shotgun ~(10kxOC) ZNation

Chapter 1

The story begins just before Season 1 Episode 5

—-------------------------------------------------------

The group left behind the waist land of a destroyed helicopter on a full tank of gas. But with the Apocalypse a full tank doesn't last long. They were able to stretch it to last a day and a half before completely running empty.

"Now we are completely out," Garnet says as he pulls out the keys to the now dead car.

With no building or car in site they all knew the only option was to walk.

"Alright guys. We walk from here," Warren tells the group.

Murphy was moaning in annoyance. Rubbing his neck. Hating the idea of having to walk.

Everyone grabbed their packs and weapons and began their very long walk.

—------------------------------------------------

The sun was just setting when they finally made it to a small town sign. In dirty yellow letters it says 'Welcome to Rose Waters' with a red spray painted Z over it.

"Lilly Water. Sounds friendly," Doc says.

"Let's keep moving. Keep your eyes open," Garnet orders, readying his gun.

They all walk down the main road. Warren, Garnet, Murphy, and Doc continue their walk, while Addy, Mac, Cassandra, and 10K do quick runs through some of the buildings. Grabbing whatever they think is needed. It wasn't a lot to begin with but they each were able to find a few cans of food, batteries, and about a bottle worth of water. Not enough for all of them.

A few shots were fired right in front of Garnet. Hitting the ground. He quickly backed up, putting his arms out to stop the others from going any further. Pointing his gun at the direction the shots came from.

"That's far enough," a man yells from on top of a pickup truck. His hair buzzed, wearing a black leather jacket with a red skull on the back. A few others started to appear on top of other cars. All wearing the same leather jacket. All carrying guns. All pointed at them.

"We don't want any trouble," Garnet says, taking a few steps forward, "We just need a place to stay for the night and some fuel for a car."

"Is it just you four?" The guy asks.

Garnet looks back at Warren. She gives him a little nod, knowing it's best to have everyone known.

"We have four more in the buildings. Looking for any supplies."

"Call them out," The man orders.

Garnet takes a few moments before shouting, "10K, Addy, Mac, Cassandra!"

Within a few seconds they came running out. Once they saw the people, they quickly raised their guns as well.

"Look we really don't want any trouble," Warren tries to reason with them, "We just want a place to rest and then we will leave in the morning."

One of the leather jackets went next to the main man and whispered something to each other. When they were finished they put their attention back to the group.

"You lower your weapons and we'll lower ours," the main man said.

"Okay, okay," Garnet lowered his gun and everyone followed.

The main man jumps down from the truck with his gun down and walks over to Garnet.

"My name's Mark. If you follow me I'll take you to our man in charge."

"My name is Sergeant Garnet. That's Lieutenant Warren, Doc, Murphy, Cassandra, Addy, Mac and 10K," Garnet introduces everyone to Mark.

Marks nods, "Follow me."
