During the night, Larry woke up, he sat up from the bed with a yawn, he wiped his eyes and stood to his feet, he wobbled through the old house to a nearby window, he peered outside of it, and noticed the hoards of infected outside, he gasped, and clasped hands over his mouth, with the perfect hearing these creatures have, they heard the small sound leave the boy's body, a sudden screech alerted the rest and they all charged towards the house, but before any damage could be done, the sun began to rise, causing more damage to the infected.
Larry stepped back and bumped into the chest of Leon, a booming voice erupted within the room "What did you do?" Larry looked behind him, "N-Nothing sir... I-I just looked out the window..." Larry amitted with a slight stutter, "Bullshit." Leon snarled as he pushed past the kid and notices the flailing infected, trying to avoid the sun's rays, cursing under his breath, Leon kicked his brother awake, "Come on, we need to leave. ASAP." Nico groaned as he sat up, "Alright, I'm up..."
After pulling on bags and shoes, they made their way outside, "We're gonna make a run for it, just beyond those trees is a street, we make it there, and we're safe." Nico explained as he wrapped the map back up, with a hum of agreement from Leon and a nod from Larry, they all began to sprint towards the road, the infected, despite the fact most of them are burning, continued to follow them. After a few gun shots, they made it to the road, panting and wheezing for breath.
Leon slapped Larry on the back of the head, "W-We told you to not... go up to the windows until sun rise..." Leon panted out with an angry tone, Larry flinched at the slap and rubbed his head, "I'm sorry..." Nico sighed, "Let's keep walking, fight won't get us anywhere." Nico said with annoyance as he made his way down the street, Leon pulled out his granddad's old walkman, and put in one of Nico's cd's, it was a burned cd of all on Leon's favorite songs from when he was little. A warm smile spread across his lips as he heard the melody for Clay Pigeons.
Making their way down the street, a FAPC tank road by, causing the men to find cover, "Fuck..." Leon whispered as he put the walkman away, "Ok so the map says there's a subway station right over... there." Nico says as he points to a subway station opening. Making their way down the stairs, they noticed flower buds and spored, in a silent understanding the twins put on their gas masks, and made their way deeper, Larry followed behind with no problem, Leon looked back, "How the hell are you breathing in this shit?!" As the man exclaimed in surpise, screeching came from nearby, "Damn it... we'll talk about this later, you stay here while we deal with the infected." Leon snarled.
After receiving a nod from Larry, they made their way around the subway, Leon and Nico split up, Leon came up behind an infected an pulled his knife out, slicing it's head off, whislt Nico did the same, after twenty or so more infected bodies dropped, Leon stood up, thinking it was safe and called out, "Alright, it's cle-" Suddenly he was shoved to the ground by an infected, Larry jumped up at the sound and noticed the infected on top of Leon, in a panic, Larry grabbed a brick and threw it at the infected.
With the infected flailing from the hit, Leon pulled out his hand gun and let out six bullets in the infected, Leon sat up and wiped the blue blood off his face and reloaded his gun and put it back in his holster, he looked up as Nico walked up and held a hand, Leon took the hand and stood up, he looked over to Larry and nodded, Larry smiled and walked over. "You did good kid, I'm proud." Leon said, ruffling Larry's hair slightly.
Leon took the lead ande made his way through the tail tracks, making his way to the other side with Nico and Larry following behind, once the trio was back in the daylight, Nico pulled his map out once more, "So it looks like we're nearby the hos-" Nico paused as he looked towards small bush, "Did y'all hear that?" Nico questioned, With a nod from Leon, Leon pulled his gun out and slowly moved closer towards the bush, he looked behinded and yelped as someone popped from behind the bush.
The person was a about five feet and twelve inches tall, with short, curly brown hair, magnificent moss green eyes, tan skin with freckles dusted on his skin, a scar along his nose as he wore brown leather jacket, over a black, ripped Nirvana band t-shirt, and dusty dark blue jeans held around the male's waist with a dull belt with a holster on the side, a dark black boots on his feet. The man held a gun out, "D-don't come closer!" He shouted, his hand shakingly holding a gun at Leon, with raised hands, Leon spoke, "Hey, were not infected, I can tell you're not used to guns, we ain't gonna harm you... We're just trying to make our way west. Do this the easy way, and let us go."
The man place the gun on the ground and choked down a sob, looking back, Leon noticed the equally confused expressions on the other's faces, Leon made his forward, "Hey, you alright man?..." The man nodded, "I-I'm fine..." He stood straight up, wiping his face, the sun beeming down on him, brighting his features, blood rushed to Leon's, as he quickly looked away, "W-Would you like walked with us?" Leon asked, making eye contact with anything but the man, The man responded, having no one else and no where to be, he decided, "You know what, fuck it. Sure, I'm in... I'm Adam." Adam reached his hand out, Leon shook his hand, "L-Leon. over there is my brother Nico and our... friend, Larry."
