Kira followed Brendan to the gates of city hall, the ground was covered in dead bodies, glass and oil. The gate was a darker shade of green and it had looked like someone had already gone through the gate, the gate was slightly open. whoever went through it was trying to make as little noise as possible. The thought of other survivors filled her with a happy feeling and Kira would take every happy feeling should could take at the moment.
Kira watched as Brendan slowly opened the gate, trying to make as little noise as possible. He signals over to Kira to watch his back of any dead corpses roaming around and he heads in to see if the cost is clear. Kira looking around the place as she waits for Brenda, a fire truck is to her left, along with the Raccoon City Press, which they had just come from, they found nothing in their search. Just bunches of papers scattered on the ground and soldier that looked like a team sent in to try and control the situation but it seemed to have failed.
Brendan walks back through the gate and grabs Kira's Shoulder, giving her a small fright.
"Sorry, cost is clear" Brendan informs her as she nods.
They walk towards the door and as they about to enter another door opens behind them and two figures run towards them and straight past them aswell, towards the city hall gates.
Brendan and Kira follow, Kira knew they could be dangerous but they were fighting the same battle, a battle to survive! They all past the gates and one of them slams the gates shut. A woman places her hands on her knees, she is trying to catch her breathe. She was wearing a black dress which went to her knees and broken high heels. she must of been going out to dinner when the shit hit the fan
Her feet must be sore
Slumped up against the gate was a man, wearing a rasta beanie, A Yellow top that said "dont have time for this shit" Which pretty much sums up their situation.
his also wearing pj pants. he must of been at home when this started. He looked up and looked at Brendan and herself and thats when she realised who it was.
"Staaaars!" echoed throughout the air of the doomed city. Josh stepped away from the gate and looked at the 2 other survivors.
Brendan! Joshes eyes lit up and he ran over and hugged him, they exchanged a nod to each other, Josh looked over to the the girl with him, he noticed her face features and the way she carried herself and he knew she was related to Shauna.
"Kira?" He questioned
When did she get here? why haven't i seen her around the city before the outbreak?
She smiled back and Josh smiled back. Maybe she was with Shauna just before the outbreak?
"Please tell me you were with Shauna?!"
Kira's smile disappeared and Josh knew by the smile that Shauna wasn't with them anymore, she is either dead or walking around with the need to feed.
"I haven't seen her since i got here" Kira responded
Joshes hopes shot back up, the chance to see her again, the chance to tell her he loves her! He might not make it out of this moment but as long as he tells Shauna and even help her escape, he doesn't care what happens to him.
The thought doesn't stay long, the gate behind him pushes him forward. The gate begins to rattle, something is crashing up against, the undead? highly unlikely! The gate is being pushed forward with great strength! Then its heard, the horrible screeching of the creature chasing Apryl and Josh moments ago.
"Staaars!"
Josh looks at the group.
"It wont hold for long, lets get out of here before it breaks through!" Brendan suggest, Everyone nods and they head on there way, hopefully a way out of the city.
Brendan jumps over the wooden crates and the others follow, they are at the tram line. This was going to lead them to St Michaels clock tower. Brendan looked and saw nothing but destruction. He knew following the tram line would lead them straight there, its going to be longer than taking the tram, but it could be their best way out of the city.
"we follow the tram line" Brendan informs them.
Josh walks out onto the tram line and looks down the tacks, he nods and turns to Brendan.
"St Michaels clock tower?" Josh asks
Brendan nods.
"an hours walk maybe? could be more depending on what we run into"
Josh shrugs, Brendan knows Josh isn't trying to brighten the place up like he usually does. When the first cannibal murders happened a couple of months ago, it claimed the lives of two young girls, two girls that use to play on Jill Valentines lawn. She was devastated, but Josh would cheer her up at work by doing some wacky things and even played pranks of Chris Redfield. In a situation like this how could you even joke? its a nightmare, most of the Raccoon City Citizens are walking around dead and eating anything that moves. Brendan walks over to Josh and gives him a nod, Josh gives one back and begins to walk down the tracks, Kira follows with her shotgun in hand and Apryl is next. Brendan looks around him with the hope that the clock tower is the answer out of the city.
Apryl follows Kira down the track, her gun in her hand and one foot over the other.
Great fucking time for this shit to happen, the clothes i'm wearing are not clothes to wear in a situation like this!
Her heels hurt her feet which each step, her dress made her cold but it didn't bother her, she would rather go through her pain and frostbite than be eaten by one of the undead or stuck in the city any longer that she had to.
an earth rattling explosion rings through the city. the explosion sounded close. The four of them stopped and waited for anymore sounds.
"What was that?" Kira asks worried
Josh looks back to Brendan and Brendan shares a look back at him. Apryl knew it was close, probably at the end of the line.
"Sounded like it was coming from up ahead" Josh informed them
His right, it sounded close and came from the direction they were heading, Apryl couldn't argue that, but she wondered if they should continue in the direction.
"Its along the way, we will check it out, could be more survivors" Brendan calmly says
Josh continues, followed by Kira, Apryl and Brendan. Apryl didn't want to continue, she was still freaked out about the creature and its horrible scream. it said S.T.A.R.S. could it be after her and Josh? Another one of Umbrellas horrible experiments? She didn't want to know. she just wanted to get out and if going in the direction of the explosion was her way out. So be it.
