Zoey rolled her eyes, trying to not listen to the arguement between Bill and Francis as the tried to decide on where to go, when the former college student heard the faint sounds of crying coming from a nearby building. The brunette girl quietly made her way towards the door, opening it to find the crouched form of a girl with long white hair and dressed in barely any clothes. "Hello?" she asked, shining her flashlight of her gun on the form.
She watched as the girl stiffened and began to stand, turning her head to show a pale face with glowing red eyes, just before she began to screech and run towards the survivors who quickly shut the door. "Shoot it!" Bill exclaimed, trying to hold the door shut as the special infected pounded away on the door and soon busted through sending the group skidding back.
The special infected wailed as she ran towards Zoey, insanely sharp claws flying through the air towards the girl, when a figure landed between her and the zombie a flash of steel just before the body crashed to the ground and the long white haired head flying into the lap of Louis who left out a shock shout hitting off him.
"Who the hell are you?!" Francis demanded, pointing his pump shotgun at the figure revealing it to be a male about nineteen-years-old of a lean-muscled stature with brown hair that at times fell into his eyes. He wore clothes that consisted of regular jeans with a gray long-sleeved shirt underneath a black hooded sweater and regular white sneakers. In his right hand was a machete with its blade dripping with the infected's blood.
"Conner!" Zoey shouted in surprise at seeing her fellow college student standing there. "Yo- You're alive!"
Conner looked at the girl wearing the pink jacket and nodded in greeting. "Yeah, was out when this happened and kind of just tried to survive." he shrugged non-commitedly, flicking the machete to fling the blood from the blade before placing it in a sheath on his back and drew the attention of the other three who took notice of him carrying no firearms.
"You been using just that, son?" Bill inquired, making the son of Angel look at the veteran.
"Yeah, never really been a fan of guns." he said, looking around keeping alert as his heightened senses told him that another special infected was nearby. "We should get going." He flexed his hands itching to draw his blade and hunt, never having gotten used to his instincts from Quor'toth after his memories had returned.
Bill looked the lean-built teenager over, noticing the boy's urge to grab his weapon, and nodded his head. "Right. Let's get goi-"
A howl tore through the night sky as a leaping form crashed into Louis malling him with its claws, Zoey and Francis were quick to react as they shot the infected off the dark skinned man; the zombie died as it fell backwards only to slam into a flashing car triggering a loud car alarm. Everybody froze as the alarm tore through the night and the more common infected were heard coming from the next couple of streets over making them tense up, pulling out readying their guns or in Conner's case his machete.
The group watched in stunned silence as a huge horde of common infected ran at them, Conner readying himself as he prepared to buy some time for the group of survivors only to freeze as a loud roar made the regular zombies freeze as a car came sailing through the sky. "Move!" the nineteen-year-old barked, dodging with the others following his lead and rolled on the ground with his weapon taking out the legs of nearby infected.
"Shoot or run?" Louis asked, aiming his gun at the large hulking infected as it charged towards them, and got no answer. "Shoot or run?"
"Both!" Bill shouted, as the four survivors begun to open fire on the infected as they ran; Conner in front of them as he cleared the way to the alley and to a fire-escape.
