"It's so quiet here." Liz said. The group all stood together in front of the business district.
"Finally peace and quiet." Allison said as she sighed.
"The business district's always quiet on Purge Night. The banks move their money, so no one's ever down here. Let's go." Leo explained before ushering the group. Allison and Leo looked around, taking in note that anyone could show up at any moment.
"Stop." Leo told the group. Allison and Leo looked around, inspecting the area and making sure it was all clear.
"We don't even know your names. I'm Liz, and this is Shane." Liz said introducing herself to Cali and Eva. "Hi." Shane said.
"Eva. My daughter, Cali." Eva replied introducing both herself and her daughter.
"It's nice to officially meet you on this shitty night." Shane said. "Yeah." Eva said.
"Is anyone else kind of curious about this guy and the girl?" Shane asked.
But what he didn't know was that even though they were all whispering Leo and Allison could still hear them. Allison turned to her father but Leo put a finger to his mouth and Allison nodded, they continued to 'inspect the area' and pretend that they hadn't just heard them.
"I'm just glad that they're out here with us." Liz stated.
"Yeah, me, too. But we all got stuck out here, and they chose to be. That means they're Purging." Shane said.
"Hey. Let's go." Leo told the group and they continued to walk. "Are you saying that we shouldn't trust them? They saved our lives." Eva pointed out.
"All I'm saying is that they're out here armed to the teeth, on Purge Night, voluntarily. That means they're trying to do something nasty, together. I'm guessing she is his side chick or girlfriend." Shane said referring to Allison.
"We can hear you." Both father and daughter said.
"And that is just gross what a horrible accusation!" Allison exclaimed.
"He's my dad!"
"She's my daughter!"
The two yelled out at the same time. "Sorry, I can see that now." Shane said. He scratched the back of his head awkwardly in embarrassment which made him earn a smack to the arm by Liz. Leo just shook his head and Allison rolled her eyes.
"My name is Allison by the way." She said before walking behind her father.
Allison felt overwhelmed by her thoughts and emotions and kept telling herself to breathe. Everything was going to workout fine. She attempted to clear her thoughts, but seeing as that wasn't working, Allison decided to just stick behind her father.
"Hey, are you doing okay?" Leo asked his daughter as he swung the strap attached to his rifle over his left shoulder.
"I'm a little overwhelmed and nervous. I want this night to be over but I'm fine." Allison said sending a reassuring smile to her dad.
"Doing worry kiddo, it will soon be over. You're strong and I know you can do this." Leo said giving Allison a side hug. She gave him a smile as they all continued walking.
"I'm gonna go talk to him." Cali whispered to her mother. Eva shook her head in disapprove but Cali started walking away from her mother towards Leo and Allison.
"Cali. Cali." Eva said calling out her daughter's name trying to stop her.
"What's your name?" Cali asked Leo. "Shh." He uttered not responding to her question.
