As she walked towards the cars, Alicia kept her eyes on her surroundings. She didn't want to be caught off guard. Part of the gates had come down, letting a horde of the infected in. "Shit" Alicia said under her breath as she ran towards the van. She was stopped by something grabbing her arm and yanking her against the brick wall, hard. As her head smacked into the brick, Alicia steadied herself. Turning around ready to fight, the plank of wood in her hand knocked from her grip as a knife was placed to her throat "I told you not to tell anyone" Chris growled, pressing himself against her. He was stronger than he looked and Alicia knew she couldn't get him to loosen his grip. "Chris get the fuck off of me" she yelled trying to push him away. The knife pressed harder into her throat, making a small red line of blood appear as it did so. "No…you listen to me now….first…I'm going to kill you…then I'm going to kill mommy and there isn't anything ayone can do" Chris said coldly. "Care to test that theory" a voice came from behind him, followed by the sound of a shotgun loading. Whipping around so Alicia was in front of him, knife still at her throat, Chris glared at the blonde woman clad in black jeans and a leather jacket "Who the hell are you" he yeleld. Smirking, the woman looked at Alicia, winking before looking back to Chris "How about I ask the questions psycho boy" she said aiming the shotgun at him "Let the pretty girl go and maybe I'll be nice".
Chris shook his head "No way…stay the hell out of this" he said pressing the knife harder. Alicia gasped as she felt the hilt cut into her skin, sending a trickle of blood running down her neck. Chris was about to speak again when a gunshot rang through the area and he collapsed. Alicia backed away confused as to what happened. As she looked at Chris, she saw that he had been shot in the leg. "I told him to let you go" the woman said as she swung the shotgun over her shoulder. Alicia stared at her in disbelief. Who was this girl? "Thanks…." She said grabbing the knife that was now next to Chris. The woman shook her head "No thanks needed buttercup, I'm always glad to rescue a damsel in distress, especially one with eyes like yours" she said with a smirk.
Alicia rolled her eyes. Seriously? This girl was going to flirt during a huge fight…in the apocalypse. "I have to get to the van over there…can you help me" she asked. The woman nodded "Of course but only if you move that cute little ass of yours fast" she said looking behind her. Alicia scowled at the woman but ignored her flirtatious remark. As they reached the vans, she looked around. She felt a twinge in her heart realizing her family wan't there yet. She was lost in her own thoughts when a voice pulled her to reality "Damnit princess if you aren't going to fight then get in the damn van" she yelled, her australian accent sending chills through Alicia's body even though she was being yelled at. Shaking herself from her thoughts, she turned to see at least twelve infected heading towards them. The next moments flew by fast as the dead were killed. Looking up, Alicia relaxed seeing Nick and Madison running up to them, followed closely by Travis who was helping an unconcious Ofelia.
"ALICIA" Madison yelled, wrapping her daughter in a hug. Alicia closed her eyes, pressing herself into her mother's embrace. The engine of the van turning over caused everyone to look at the blonde as she stood up on the doorframe "This is rather beautiful and everything but we need to move…now…once that fire hits the gas tanks in the celler this place is going to light up faster than a dingo den in summer" she drawled. Confused glances were thrown but everyone piled into the van. Travis took the drivers seat, Madison in the passenger. Nick sat in the middle seat cradling Ofelia. Alicia relaxed back against the back seat. Looking over as the woman who had just helped them sat next to her, Alicia couldn't stop her eyes from looking her over. Her jacket was unzipped and the white tank top she wore accented her curves and muscles perfectly. Alicia was amazed that someone could look so gorgeous covered in dirt and blood. Shutting her eyes, Alicia shook the thoughts from her mind. When she opened them, she looked back at the woman "I never got your name" she said softly. The woman smirked, looking over at the younger girl "Elyza Lex, at your service M'lady" she said grabbing Alicia's hand and kissing it softly, looking up at her with a grin as she did so. Alicia wasn't sure how to make her mouth work. Something about Elyza's blue eyes was intoxicating. When she finally found herself, she swallowed "Nice to meet you…I'm Alicia…Clark…Alicia Clark" she said with a smile as they drove away from the burning building. This was going to be quite a night.
