"Really? You found nothing?" Henry asked the gang that had came in through the door all slouching and exhausted, majority bared miserable tired looks. Ed shook his head with a soundless "no" as a courtesy response.
Although Jack walked in with a bored unfazed look on his face. Dognut just looked like he'd been scolded by his mother; a bitter scowl on his face as he put his gun on safety mode and refrained himself from throwing it like a child.
"How's Eva?" Ed asked kindly before looking around, now making direct eye contact after he rubbed his hands together in a solid attempt to heat them. "Yeah, she pulled my ears, and then proceeded to try and rip Alina's hair extensions out" The dog fearer answered honestly.
"It's, Alisha!" Alisha corrected lately but Henry made no actions to prove he cared about that statement. "Yadda yadda yadda! No One cares" Courtney interjected blatantly through a yawn, stretching and finding her bed on the floor she's claimed for the past whenever she got there.
Jack walked over to the small cramped living space and sat next to Henry, Dognut silently yet grumpily followed. Not too keen on sitting next to the two unusual's named: Thorne and Copycat, in return they shared their own couch. "Wow, it was that shit?" Alisha commented, seeing how fed up they looked but not accepting their silence as a suggestive means to be quiet.
No one had answered and no one was going to, therefore the annoying brat made loud exasperated huffs as a reply. A few hours passed and they were all asleep.
~ The next day
"THAT'S TEH LAST ONE!" Jack screamed as he grabbed the bag from where he'd seen it with one hand, quickly jumping over the fallen over shelve and scrambling his way outside to the others and away from the gaining zombies.
He had his baseball bat in his other hand whilst he and the gang started sprinting towards the shops entrance, each with different expressions on their face as they raced their way towards the dim light.
"Holy fuck! That was..AMAZING!" Dognut laughed manically, feeling the adrenaline pump throughout his veins. Jack blocked the entrance of the shop with a long row of trolleys, before adding more and more. "Guess that was quite thrilling" Thorne added, the sounds of screechy and scratchy wheels loud in the backround.
"Well it's not over yet, we still have a long way to go if we're to find others" Ed added thoughtfully, imagining a whole functioning civilisation where many people strive and survive; sending elite groups to go on supply hunts while mothers and children take care of one another.
"That should hold'em!" Jack yelled as he finished pushing the last trolley he found in the parking lot into the many before it; the Irish boy then skipped his way over to the others who had started to walk at a slow pace. "Good job team!" Jack admitted loudly upon seeing the many of his comrades with a bag or two on their back.

"Alright so, what we'll do is grab as many of our supplies as we can, and then proceed to make our way to the Westminster bridge, and our destination!?...The Buckingham palace! We'll need to leave early though" Ed said confidently, happy that his plans were coming together.Ed looked around to only see Courtney, Jack, Copycat, Brooke, Henry and Dognut at the planning table, looking around but only seeing Alisha outside with Thorne, flirting. "Thought this was a group, meeting" Ed mumbled under his breath. "Any questions?" He added as he rubbed at his eyelids.
"ooOOoO~? We're going to see the queen?" Jack asked in the best high pitched British accent he could, Dognut and Henry laughing at the question. The freckled brunette only sighed, shaking his head before saying "Jack, go check if we have enough supplies".
"Aye aye, Captain!" Jack said in a fake drunken manner, saluting and then heading off to where he stored his supplies. "So why Buckingham?" Henry asked curiously whilst he stared at the map laid out in front of them.
"Because there's most likely people there" Ed admitted blatantly with a shrug, not really knowing how far into elaborating he could get from that. "Ah-Huh? Guys?" The blonde Irish boy hollered as he started to walk back to the group, biting his lips and avoiding Ed's questioning gaze.
"What?" Brooke replied impatiently, she could be nice at times and then at others she could be a mild bitch. "We're gonna need teh....get more supplies" Jack answered with a nervous smile on his face. Hoping they understood and not freak out too much.
"WE, WHAT?" Ed repeated flabbergastingly, eyes wide and his mouth agape; his precious plans and tight time frame ruined. He didn't know whether to be furious or disappointed, either way he just collapsed back into the dining chair, rubbing his forehead.
The many others standing around the table glancing at one another with unreadable blank expressions. "Whoopsie" The blue eyed male chuckled. Ed didn't say anything in return but just resumed silent, sighing occasionally.
Sooner or later the sound of the glass sliding door was made prominent within the malevolence of silence the few awkwardly basked themselves in. The two who had been absent from the important discussion still muttering stuff happily into each other's ears, some how incoherent to the ones surrounding the table solemnly.
"What happened?" Thorne asked as he saw the grim look on all of his comrades faces, Alisha rolling her eyes and being unfazed by anything once more. The cow appeared to be unfazed by everything! Dognut, Jack and Henry were all angry at the female but none said a word as they all synced in folding their arms over their chests.
"Doesn't matter, guess I'll be planning for tomorrow" Ed Finally said, back to square one of planning.
