"What!" Yelled Elena with eyes wide and scared."No! We didn't call you to get yourself killed!"

The others just stared at you while Vanitas raised an eyebrow and crossed his arms over his chest.  

You sighed "I know this place, I've been around for some time and I can move around with no problem. I'll distract them and all of you will use that time to get out of here. From my experience we should head south, there's not as many zombies as there is north. But after that do you have any plans?" you asked.

They've asked for help, but you just thought that they wanted help with getting out of this place safely. If they do decide to follow you, they would be in much more trouble. They ponder about what you've said until Tseng spoke. "Yes, we do have plans, which is surviving and I think that having you in our group increases those chances."

Looking around, you shook your head. Should you tell them about what awaits them if they followed you? "Hey, now that I think about it. If your intention is to survive, staying with me will not increase your chances. I'm looking for a few friends and there are others who are..." you paused and now they seemed to pay closer attention "looking for me... I think you might want to reconsider your plans." Their eyes widened.

"What? But why?" Elena asked but you gave her no answer. After waiting for a second or so, she opened her mouth to speak. "Actually, we haven't really thought about what to do..." Elena trailed off sheepishly.

After she mentioned this Vanitas frowned. "Really? I'm getting really fucking tired of this shit" he growled.

The man that mentioned that he would rather get out of this place shook his head. "We need plans. If we continue like this, we won't last long." There was a pause. "And what are YOUR plans?" he asks you.

Well that was a question you haven't really thought throughly. Since your last escape from the government all you cared about was searching for you friends whom you were certain were still alive. "For me there's not much of a plan other than staying on guard in case I come across danger and searching for my friends."

They glanced at each other as Antonio pursed his lips and thought for a second. "If that's the case, could we join you?" he asks. "We won't cause any more trouble."

You weren't sure if he had heard you. "No." you answered without hesitation. Traveling on your own would be best, you would be able to travel faster. On the other hand, you would be happy to have them as company but they would be in danger. You were sure that where you were headed you wouldn't be welcomed with hugs and kisses. What you wanted was for them to be safe.

"Why not?" now it was Tseng who asked and by the tone of his voice, he was curious and becoming wary of you since you want to travel alone.

"I told you already. Danger follows me and you want to run away from it, not toward it. If you do come with me, the chances of surviving will decrease." you told him harshly. "Now if you're ready then get moving! Since I'll be heading somewhere else I'll get rid of the zombies." With that, you took out your machetes and opened the door. Inside, you could hear a few voices. "Wait until you hear my whistle, then you move." You didn't really give them much of a chance to talk things out, but you wanted them to move out as soon as possible. If they wanted to get out, they had better chances of finding a safe place while it was still visible outside.

Once you were outside, you scanned the surrounding area for zombies. Once the coast was clear, you moved slowly to the opposite direction from where you came. As you got to a clear area, you then got on top of a car and started to whistle. You whistled so loud that it echoed on the walls of the buildings. That caught the zombies attention. As soon as their eyes-or if you could call them that, since there was nothing but sockets-- landed on you, they growled and walked towards you. In a moment you were surrounded by zombies, where you begin slashing and beheading them. You kept the zombies attention and began to lead them away from the theater. As you ran you sliced here an there to get rid of zombies that were in your way. You ran quickly and the zombies moved slowly with uneasy steps.

As time passed the zombies bodies began to dry up almost into skeletons. They did not drink water so there was little to no moisture in their bodies. They were the walking dead that continually decayed and hunger for flesh. Some zombies that had no shirt on, you were able to see their ribs or protruding bones.

After about 5 minutes of running you stop and hide behind a car. The zombies groaned and turned their heads from one side to other looking for their meal which has escaped. You made your way back carefully, not wanting more zombies on your trail. The reason why you wanted to go back was to make sure that they made it out alive. After you went back to the theater, you saw that the door was ajar and peaked inside, it was empty.

"They're gone." That voice was none other than Vanitas.

You spun around and glared at the male, who stood casually with his hands in his pockets. "So I've noticed." You sigh. Staring at him you wonder why he was still here. "Why didn't you leave with the others?" you finally asked.

He glared. "That's none of your business."

You shake your head and you turn around to leave. Within a few steps you stop and turn back to look at him. "Are you going to follow me?" you ask. Vanitas begins to head in the same direction as you. He opens his mouth to reply but a noise stops him. You both turn and head towards the noise with machetes in hand. You quickly glance at Vanitas and notice that he has no weapon so you hand him a machete. He raises an eyebrow but accepts the weapon none the less. The noise increases in volume as you move closer with Vanitas at your side.
