CH 18: Zombie hunt (Quin, TS, PA, SPM)

[Renekin Skywalker]

The zombie-hunting team arrive in Brisby Flats the next day. There is a delivery van of a nondescript sort that was from the local precinct. A keen eye could see the armour plating undering the company paint and graffiti.

All four (power armour, SPM, Arcadian and Trouble shooter) are dressed in the street clothes Arcadian had recommended. "teams of two." TS says.

[kurff]

"Man AM I glad I never became a delivery guy.." he nodded at TS, "So who gets which area?" he sat in the passenger seat. looking signs of the zombies..

"Just pick a direction." Troubleshooter says, as he looks around. "And keep in touch." SPM and PA each take their own route.

"Right, he picked a direction and moved carefully observing for out place items. He recalled his city and the constant patrols Paragon's troops or the constant presence the rebels that operated out the resistance. That was something he didn't miss.

The term Zombie was vague, they probably had a vacant "mind control look to them...the kind a deer had to on coming headlights had.[rand=517668351792302928924499859565591015185078135593126844965707709867]

Arcadian sees many homeless people in the direction her was taking.

"Well, golly Jimminy Jee." Says SPM, rather suddenly.

"What?" TS asks.

"I see our friend, the enegineer." SPM answers. "In the warehouse district. And, heavens to betsy, if he doesn't have new friends... And quite a mix, too."

"He's not our concern." TS answers. "Keep on the objective."

[kurff]

Hmmm..New friends? What kind of friends. he wondered. Quinn made a note to check the area him self later. As it was continued his search looking as authentic as possible. Looking out of place was easy. small details a trained eye could spot were still there.

Quinn very quickly comes to an ara inhabited by the less fortunate. The majority look to be alright, in stature, but some, here and there look like they're wasting away, in much the same was as the corpses...

"Oh, I just saw something." Powerarmour says over the radio. "No, nevermind. This one's already gone."

The voice from the controller responded. "Roger, 3. Pick-up notified for your location."

"Alright." Troubleshooter said, next. "I'm having no luck."

"Jimminy jinkins, me neither." SPM said. "The warehouse district is just to iffy wiffy to find one."

[kurff]

"TS, I think I may have something here.." he blended, "some wasting away less unfortunates a lot like those bodies..." he found a nice spot to observe. then thought differently..He took a spot he could get a look at the face of on the "zombies".

"Roger." Troubleshooter said. "We'll make our way to you."

The faces of the ones that looked like zombies (there must be a dozen... maybe more) looked pretty much starved, and over-weathered, and aged, though still not very old. In fact, it was kind of hard to easily tell the zombies from the rest.

[kurff]

Has to be something...the stage magician thought. A feature of some sort...He pondered for brief moment. If nano-tech was used it need to have some sort place to be in. Arcade always told to keep on this sort thing. He should have listened...no need to beat himself up now. It only reminded him of his unreachable home..

There were obvious signs maybe the eyes or skin had a pattern all of these people infected had. a careful,but passing glance as he snug his hood should blend in and let him get a look.

As Quinn was getting a better look at the homeless (there was a number of reasonable suspects, looking more burned-out than maknourished), he saw an Angelically attractive woman (Mei) turn the corner. At about the same time, a clean, unmarked white van (not the ones he'ld seen with the police) came slowly down the road. If it wasn't the only one to have come down the road since he got there, it probably wouldn't have been remarkable, really.

[kurff]

He rose from his spot and moved toward the woman.."Come here often? and that van your ride?" he added with a sly grin.

Thinking quickly to herself before answering. "No I am to be honest kinda lost. But it is no worries I am sure I will find my way around. I mean my Boyfriend will be showing up shortly I hope as I followed the directions as best I could to get here and I hope I did not take a wrong turn being new to the city." Realizing that this is a simple bum. "I am sorry I realize you did not need to hear my problems. Here you go." As she gives the bum a sawbuck.

[Renekin Skywalker]

"Oh! She's lost?" A couple of the more active folks asks, stirring out of themselves. "I'll show you the way." Several offer, in different variations. Often with a suggestive chuckle. And they start to approach her.

"Back off!" One yells, getting between Mei and Arcadian and the others. (Arcadian can tell he's one of the more drained-looking types). Despite his appearance, he was more on-the-ball than the others. "She's lost. Let he get found."

"What do you know?" Says another bumb. "Just cause you got picked what for some doowhackey don't mean you gots more than any'f us."

"I gots dignity." He says. "I'm dieing anyways. We're all dieing. Might as well be for science."

[sasqaricious]

Mei playing up the fact she is scared but staying still as she needs this information. "Wh-what do you mean, and please do not hurt me?"
