The smell of morning dew floated in the air, it was spring the season of change. When the grass grew green, flowers bloomed in empty fields, and birds sang as the sun rose. Grayson walked down the empty street every once in a while a run down abandoned car would come up on the street. A sigh rolling down the males lips as he checked them for supplies, most of the time he'd end up empty handed but at times he'd make small finds like a water bottle or left over canned food. Now a days it's all you could hope for. Purified water and food where hard to find. The sun became uncovered by clouds, and the wt grass glistened. Rain had fallen the night before, small puddles still covered the street and earth worms still crawled around the grass. "The town should be up ahead" Graysons thoughts echoed through his head. It had been months since he'd seen another person, and his last encounter wasn't the more pleasant sadly the other person didn't want to be friends so Grayson had to make a though choice. The street was quite, usually groans from the dead could be heard but it was all quiet. Too quiet. Soft padded footsteps slowly approached the male from behind, Grayson quickly grabbed his crossbow as he swiftly turned around aiming it to thing walking behind him. "Mazu! Don't scare me like that girl" the words came out as a sigh, as the lean cougar purred rubbing it's head on Graysons upper thigh. The males skinny hand caressed the cougars head, as he turned around and continued walking. The buildings and shops from the run down town started getting closer, a few lose zombies walked around nothing the male couldn't handle. "As long as I don't make too much noise they shouldn't bother me" the burnette mumbled to himself. The local supermarket was in the middle of town, Grayson made his way to the glass doors looking through them to see if it was clear to go in. Slowly he pulled the door open aiming his crossbow in-front of him to make sure nothing snuck up on him. Grayson brought his fingers to his mouth as he whistled, if anything or anyone was in the store they would hear him and come to him. The male waited, after a few minuets he decided it was safe and started walking down the aisle's. The little food, or necessities the male found would automatically go in his bag. Grayson began to think out loud as Mazu walked next to him.

Silver | Forested area, heading into town

The first rays of weak sunlight poured gently into the twisted forest beyond the outskirts of the now abandoned town. Foliage shuddered in the warming wind, scattering the last of the dead leaves from not only the previous season but also eroding what was left of another layer of life that used to inhabit the area to give way to new ones. Boughs maintained patchy clumps of leaves as a result of the explosion that consumed everything in it's wake, leaving much of the forest scarred but thankfully not dead. Two beings glided soundlessly through this warped forest with ease. Snowy fur blazed distinctly against the dark loam and viridescent hues that the vegetation had to offer while also being followed by a shadow that did not seem to belong to it as it's stride was entirely different. The snowy creature stopped in it's tracks as if sensing something ahead, the shadow not falling too far behind before it shot forward in the blink of an eye. A shriek erupted from the foliage only to be silenced a heartbeat later. Emerging from the brush, Silver held a scrawny rabbit by it's feet and held it up her partner: a wolf named Kiba. Kiba lowered his head to take a good whiff of the successful catch as hope faintly crossed the girl's dark eyes. "No good for me, huh?" A soft-toned voice rang out against the silence in question, followed by the just as silent reply of a pair of ears flicking in confirmation. Silver sighed in disappointment but shrugged it off easily as her wolf began consuming it immediately. He deserved it after not having eaten in so long, she thought as she ran her hand through his plush coat and set her sights on the town. There was no other choice for her now other than to traverse the open streets once more. This town seems promising. It was almost as if she was comforting herself with the thought, as if it were a bane to even step back into human civilization after only being accompanied by her wolf for so long. Memories attempted to flood her guarded mind but she quickly shoved them away, her softer expression hardening as she stepped into the town just as noiselessly as before but now looking out of place clad in all black. Sticking to the shadows as usual, the girl strode past abandoned shops and broken down vehicles with an intent on finding something suitable for humans. It was at times like this that she'd curse herself for her mundane limits. A whistle jarred her away from her thoughts and her body instinctively rushed to the nearest cover she could find. Where had it come from? A building a few blocks away? A low gurgling noise from behind her followed by hot breath on the back of her neck was enough cause for her to whip around to just barely dodge a zombie's attack, her eyes scorching with irritation at being discovered. Silver cursed under her breath as she knew it would be too risky to use her power considering the last time she'd eaten something was a little less than a week ago. I'm not going to just let myself get eaten either. Pressure on her arm signaled she'd been grabbed and in a flash, the scent of burning flesh arose as she allowed electricity to course through her body and conduct into the zombie in order to fry the point of contact but zap into it's heart. The zombie instantly slumped over onto the pavement with a loud thump allowing Silver to successfully escape it's grasp but it was a short-lived victory as her vision began to swim. "Kiba." She gasped as she half-fell, half-leaned onto the nearest wall for support as she forced herself to remain standing in the shadows in order to blend in with what cover she had left in the strengthening sunlight.

[☪ℓυηαя∂яσρ☪]

Rikimaru had been holed up in the rubble of a broken building, hiding from the hot midday sun in the darkness. The only light was peering out from cracks around the edge of their makeshift "door" barricade, dappling the concrete behind them with dusty rays of sunlight. They had crossed one leg at the knee and were lounged back, resting half on their back as they picked through a chocolate chip granola bar. They had completely removed the aluminum wrapper while smothering it in their coat, therefore muting the noise. The sun-blocked cavern was nice, cool, and -most importantly- impossible to be sneak up onto. The stone slab they had propped up against the "entrance" was practically impossible to move from the other side, as Riki had wedged a wrench underneath it.

Bug had ventured out of Rikimaru's pocket, ravenously devouring a couple of overripe grapes that had been set on the floor for him. He chittered happily, the high-pitch easily audible to Rikimaru's heightened sense of hearing, earning him a small smile from his partner. His ears rotated like satellite dishes, his little body moving with every lunging bite he took.

Rikimaru's eyebrow quirked as they heard a new anomaly; speech. These creatures were humanoid, sure, but they did not speak. Rikimaru rolled forward onto their knees, and peered through one of the cracks.

There was nothing, and there was nobody. Just empty streets and dust, just like Riki had left it.

Rikimaru had been living in this city for a while; they knew how to keep out of sight and Bug could feast on the flies that followed the dead people around. It was a good place for them- and they had gotten a lay of the land quite readily save for a few featureless streets that they got confused. The area they could see from their hidey-hole was nothing special, just the rest of the caved-in road next to the church. But they could hear something. Not dead, not machine, but living.

Was it worth the risk? Riki would certainly not be discovered here, and if they just ignored the issue the person would soon be gone forever. But... was that right? Bug didn't seem to think so, as he latched on to Riki's face with his wings -his clawed thumb lightly scratching Riki's cheek- and climbed on top of their hat to peer outside like an excited child. Rikimaru sighed, and grabbed Bug to put him back in front of his food. They would observe, and continue from there. No guarantees. They would leave once the two had finished eating.

Kiren Stewart | Lead Doctor | Location: Road leading into town | Tags: Open

Kiren looked further ahead at the road stretched before him, abandoned and wrecked cars scattered here and there through the road. Most looked like they were searched through, but there was no harm in looking through these cars again. And there was one thing that everyone ignored in cars: the seats. He needed the cloth and stuffing to cover Aria's hooves, as the clop of a hard hoof on tarmac was a clear call for danger to come to them. He once again debated whether even trying for a town was a good idea, because with her hooves covered, he couldn't ride his horse except when the situation goes south. A single, clear 'click' on the road was enough: how much more dangerous would it be for a horse to run, full speed and with all the sound, through a town or road with a hard ground? It would be suicide, if it weren't for the fact that he and Aria could smell those rotting bodies from miles away, and sprint for days if they had to. But a risk was a risk, and he didn't enjoy taking one.

Kiren slashed open one of the seats, cutting the cloth carefully and pulling out the stuffing. If there was another good thing about Aria, it was that he could carry so much more. He threw the cloth over her back and put the padding into a canvas bag tied to her withers. If that was the right term. He had never bothered to put any effort into learning about animals, much less horses, and wishes he did. Aria was too patient and kind with him, and he sometimes would find out something was bothering her days after the event.

Aria snorted, giving him a hard bump that almost knocked him into the car. Maybe she wasn't so kind. But he knew what she was trying to say, and stopped his spiraling train of thought. Kiren gave the mare a soft pat before heading for the next car, slowly making his way into town.

yuck
indentthe town was small. before everything went to hell jackson assumed it was a town no bigger than five thousand people, maybe a little less. the storefronts were rather outdated compared to what he was used to. well before the normal became broken down buildings with no power. before he had to spend every waking breath thinking about how he was going to survive and make it to the next day. well, he spent most days thinking about that. today was not one of those days. but when was jackson really ever being serious unless his life was in danger? he was a free spirit and without anyone to look after he could goof off until the threat of starvation or dehydration got to him.

indentjackson had found his makeshift home to be on the top of what appeared to be an old record shop. the roof provided him with protection from any linger zombies below as well as an advantage point. he could see a large portion of the beaten-up town. from one of the roads leading into the town to a few of the stores that might have once housed food and goods, he could have used. but now they stood empty and barren, waiting for someone to come in and replenish the shelves. the food from that store could have been stored in jacksons makeshift kitchen area. kitchen was an understatement as it was just a bucket full of clean water by the rooftop entrance. the shade from the small overhang kept the water out of the sun and provided jackson and his jackal with much-needed shade protection. getting sunburnt would ruin most people's moods, especially if one didn't have anything to relieve the pain.

indentjackson was busy sitting on the ledge overlooking the town. his feet dangling below him, occasionally kicking the brick wall and sending a few small pebbles downward. there was no threat nearby, as far as jackson could see, so he was taking time to bask in the sun. to relax for once. but that was short-lived. as most of his breaks are.

indentsomehow the town had a few visitors today. they were two distinct people jackson could see off the bat. one had just entered a store after whistling and the other had just encountered a zombie. but what surprised jackson was the two animals they had by their side. they both were large and intimidating animals by their build but jackson couldn't quite place what they were exactly from his position. as if on cue, jacksons trusty jackal came trotting over and let out a low growl at the sight of visitors. jackson simply waved the dog off before lifting his one leg up to hug it. "they're not doing any harm boy. if they are hostile then we'll deal with it. we've done it before and we're fine. it won't be like last time." the jackal simply let out another growl before plopping down behind jackson and lying down. his ears up and alert incase something happened.

indentthe male turned his attention back towards the two figures-seeing only one of them now. the other must-have ducked into the store in search of goods. "ha. good luck with that. that stores been empty forever. towns getting kind of dry isn't it." jackson let out a chuckle before running his hand through his dark hair. with the two people who entered the town seeming to be rather docile, jackson took the opportunity to go back to swinging his legs over the ledge and closing his eyes. even though jackson was taking the time to relax he knew in a heartbeat that if he heard struggling from down below he'd make his way down to help. he had all of these skills from his childhood that he wasn't about to let go to waste. it was stupid to help strangers in this situation, but jackson was fortunate enough to be able to get away with a quick escape. simply walk through the wall and trick them. never failed to save him.

━━ ＳＡＷＹＥＲ ＫＯＶＡＣ

21 moons. male. located in abandon town. tags: open

All was quiet. All was still.

This was how the world had been for Sawyer as of late. Nothing seemed to speak, move or do anything really. The world seemed...dead. Though spring had come and the world was practically bursting with colors, from the green grass to the blue sky to multi-colored flowers. All seemed to be missed by him, as all he saw was a blank, empty world. Perhaps, this is due to the fact that the world wasn't all that great anymore. One could tell this quite easily, because behind the mask of colorfulness lies something straight out of a nightmare.

Sometimes it almost seemed as if the world were mocking him, seeming all cheerful and bright only to stab him in the back a moment later. Sometimes it really did seem like the world enjoyed tossing you through loops and whatnot, but this time was especially dreadful. He didn't know what he would do at this point. He had no place to stay, no food and no water. And most of all, he didn't have someone he cared for.

Sawyer had done his best to forget about said person, but if one has ever experienced such a thing, it isn't anything less of a challenge to do so. He'd spent majority of his days scavenging for supplies, otherwise he would rest for awhile - if he could anyway. It was starting to get increasingly hard to sleep and he just couldn't understand why. Well, he somewhat knew why this was the case, but refused to accept it as such.

Sawyer had stayed outside the nearby town for quite awhile. It had seemed seemingly abandoned, but he had refused to journey into it. Until today that is. He couldn't stay out here for much longer he knew, he had to find something that could help him. Perhaps, maybe even someone. But he didn't know if he could trust anyone at this point, surely it would be everyone for themselves at this point. He hadn't seen any survivors since his traveling, but surely there would be some out there somewhere. The only question was...were they worth finding?

Besides being wary of other possible survivors, he was overly so about some other things - particularly the creatures that often haunted his dreams and never ceased to leave his mind alone for even a minute. Those things had kept him on his feet for the past few days and he hadn't stopped to relax for even a moment. His heart never seemed to stop racing, but one simply couldn't tell this by just looking at him - unless one was extremely good at seeing past emotional barriers.

Footfalls. Footsteps. Quiet ones. Nearly silent ones.

He quickened his pace, as he neared the abandoned town and even before he actually got there he could see that his suspicions were right - this town really was abandoned. He'd seen everything from toppled buildings to battered cars and many things in between - but this was something much different. He gazed around, the whole place having an eerie feeling. Something he didn't like, but where else was there to go? Nowhere.

He couldn't decide if it would be best to remain in the open or hide among the shadows. Both had their pros and cons. He decided that he'd remain relatively in the open, but close enough to the shadowy alleyways that he could easily get to if needed. Besides, he always had his powers...but he knew he couldn't use them but so much, especially so if he was already tired. Actually, no he was beyond tired - exhausted. He'd only use them if absolutely necessary.

Occasionally, Sawyer would come across an abandoned, broken-down car or building and once he was absolutely sure it was safe he'd venture into it. He found nothing. He let out a huff as he climbed out of another car that was beyond battered, before leaning against its frame to rest for a moment. Sawyer closed his eyes for a moment, before opening them again trying to get his bearings and decide what he would do next. With the growing daylight, he'd have to find a good place to hide soon. And of course, he still needed to find supplies.

This was not going to be easy, at all.
