[Parsely]

Xantolos
You go behind the bar to the pantry. Unfortunately your friends aren't complete idiots and the door is padlocked. You remember Garrett had the key last, and you turn back towards the hall leading to the other rooms. You still can't hear anything, aside from the sound of air filtering in through the vents. The sound makes you shiver and you move back into the warm parlour. You check your satchel and find it completely empty. You decide to take a 25 ounce flask of whiskey from behind the bar and tuck it inside. You never know.

Pufferfish
You put your switchblade in your back pocket after finding nothing on the brawler's corpse, then take Linden's pipe and the briefcase he found on the bus. It only has a bottle of whiskey inside and you toss the plastic bag of tinned food you had inside for safe keeping. You walk over to the smaller man and open the backpack. Its filled with rocks and bits of rubble. You scoff in disgust at the being so easily tricked, dumping the bag's contents onto the road and pulling it onto your shoulders. You also take Linden's broken mask in the hopes that you can repair it and throw on his thick overcoat.

I'd like to get on the wait list.

"Got him killed for rocks. Great." Allora says as she looks around.

Look what's behind the sandbag wall. If it's uninteresting, look around the area for a new place to go.

[Xantalos]

Continue quietly onward to the rooms. Search for the key to the pantry.
Keep my gun at the ready.

Sure thing peanut man!

Turns up in a sec.

Xantolos
You enter the hallway once more. All the doors are on the left side, of which there are exactly five before the hall curves sharply to the right. The only open door is the one leading to your apartment, the fourth room from this end. Once again the entire place strikes you as eerily silent.

Pufferfish
You look around the sandbag wall. Its only about one and a half feet tall and you simply walk right over it. It stretches from one side of the street to the other and it holds no secrets for you. You continue down the street away from where you encountered the trolley in complete silence. You reach an intersection. You can sense nothing particularly special about any of the three directions.

Go right.

[Xantalos]

Poke at the door closest to me with my Thompson. If nothing happens,  try to open it.

[Parsely]

Xantolos
You touch the door with the muzzle of your Thompson and it eases open quietly. The bodies of two women, Diane and Paula, you realise, are sprawled in the middle of the floor in puddles of blood, and otherwise the room is empty. Their corpses and the ground around them are riddled with bullet holes and you suspect they surrendered before being shot. You check their pockets carefully and find a spare filter for your gas mask, which you tuck into your satchel. You move out into the hall and check the next two doors, both of which are locked. You pass the open door to your room and you're about to try the knob to the last door before the end of the hall when you hear a low thud of something hitting the floor emanating from the other side, followed by a muffled cry and sounds of struggle.

Pufferfish
You head right. Most of the buildings are boarded up or collapsed but you notice a remarkably intact drugstore on one side of the street. You wait for a moment, checking for movement, but don't notice anything walking around inside. Do you check it out or move on?

Take out whiskey flask. Kick down the door and point the Thompson in the general direction of the people in the room while I assess the situation. If they are zombies or some evil creature thing, shoot them and then shoot them again to make sure they're dead.

[SomeStupidGuy]

This is looking pretty cool so, could I get on the waitlist mayhaps?

[Gentlefish]

I so posted.

Peer inside a window. If there isn't any movement after a while, move inside quietly.

O'course. Its funny how people are being so polite about it (in recent memory). Usually guys just go "WAITLIST". Not that it matters to me either way. Turns soon!

Xantolos
You launch a wild kick at the centre of the door, whiskey flask in the left hand and Thompson in the other. Your heel connects with the wood, punching straight through and causing one of the occupants of the room to yelp in surprise. You stand awkwardly for a moment, balancing on one leg, then lose your balance and topple to the floor, pulling your embedded foot free of the door and sending the contents of your fists skittering across the floor in either direction. You hear a voice distinctly. What the fuck? Did he just do that? A man's face appears in the hole you made. You stare at one another for a moment. He sticks the barrel of a shotgun through the hole.

Pufferfish
You can clearly see the interior of the store through the shattered remains of its front windows. You wait quietly for a few more seconds before approaching the front door and easing it open. The shelves are cleaned out entirely, but the cash register is still there. You can see the door to the unlit back room swung wide open and hanging by a single rusted hinge.

Haha, I swear on my life I knew that was going to happen to Xantolos.
