Grief = Mood: Cautious, Tense = Location: Outskirts of town
Grief walked slowly along the roads leading into town, attempting to avoid the shadows. They were unpredictable. You could never know if one of the crazies was lurking just out of sight. Problem was it seemed the sun wouldn't be up too much longer. She drew her knife and turned to the boy following after her. "We'll have to find shelter soon." She didn't wait for a response before she continued along.
There were a couple of rich looking houses sitting abandoned at the ends of long-driveways. Grief looked at the briefly, attempting to decide if it was worth the risk. A dull rumble in her stomach told her it was but so far they'd seen none of the crazies here. What if the sickness hadn't made it here yet? Rich people generally didn't take too well to strange beggars. That fantasy disappeared as she heard the grumbling noise of a zombie approaching from behind. Yeah, she should really give up the idea that anywhere was safe after all this time. Deciding all at once, she began jogging up the driveway, careful to make as little noise as possible. Spencer it seemed was not so careful.
Spencer = Mood: Nervous, Optimistic = Location: Outskirts of town
Spencer had been sort of zoning out, his mind talking him in circles. What if one of the things found them? What if Grief killed him? What if they didn't find any food and just starved to death? It wasn't until his companion spoke that he snapped out of it. He didn't say anything else, trying not to make to much noise. The things seemed to get really attracted to it. That said, when Grief started jogging up the driveway he kicked over a glass bottle in his hurry to catch up. The glass shattered on the pavement and all at once, a lot of the infected people seemed to suddenly appear from the shadows.
Spencer drew his gun, his hands shaking far too much for him to be able to shoot anything with any accuracy. He didn't get the chance to try though before Grief grabbed his arm and started running for the house. The things were still following them but Spenc just had to suck it up and run after her, praying to every god he could think of to please let them get through this and to please make him stop messing up so badly.
