Gunshop

"We need better weapons."

"Okay... how are we supposed to get there?"

"I can–"

"Amber. No."

She sat down and started sulking as they shot her down again. "You didn't even know what I was gonna say."

"You are not driving me anywhere. Not ever again."

"Agreed."

"You're so mean to me."

"We could be way meaner~"

"Yeah wanna see?"

"Be nice to stellina."

"Whatever..."

"The fuck you just say to me?"

"Sorry mom."

"Well we need to do two other things before we can get into why Amber apparently isn't allowed to drive. We need a vehicle to drive to the gunshop. My parent's Jeep is the closest so we'll need to bring it into the graveyard. Amber, you can drive it in, just don't crash it."

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Ashlyn!"

"Ashes, you're gonna regret that. Shit."

"We'll drive it back to the store we met up at so you guys can get the Bienci car."

"Bet."

"However, the phantom got over the walls last time. I'm not sure how, but we need to figure out a way to stop it from happening again so when we get the Jeep, any phantoms that follow us won't be able to get in. Anyone got any ideas?"

"Amber, since you think you can drive, what about you?"

"Andy, one more word and the phantoms will be the least of your worries."

"Try me bitch."

Pietro sighed and picked up Amber before she could pull out her weapon. "No fighting, I'm already tired enough from Nicole and my shoot earlier. And keeping you from feeding the ducks bread even though you know they're not meant to have it."

"I didn't know it kills them!"

"I did. One of them bit me and I said fuck you and bought some bread."

"Animal cruelty just for that... okay, Andrew, you're grounded."

"Dammit."

"Skill issue."

Ben perked up and walked over to their bag and pulled out his notebook quickly sketching something and showing it to them. Written below it was Barbed Wire?

"If they were normal humans that might work, but I feel like it wouldn't really bother them to grab and climb the wire regardless."

"Yeah... I can see that." Taylor nodded. She moved over to Ben and patted his shoulder. "It was a good try though."

"Since their body doesn't react well to light, why don't we just have some large light fixtures on the wall?" Aiden suggested.

"I'm not sure if the generator has enough power to keep those lights on. Most of the power goes toward the door..." Ashlyn sighed. "If the lights went off everytime we opened the door, it wouldn't be helpful."

"Then... solar lights? Maybe?"

"Right!" Eric snapped his fingers and pointed to Logan. "I forget that solar power even exists."
