ZombieApocalypseSurvivor Kari Knight As she came closer to the first of the three small buildings she would stop getting close to the wall so to listen for the telling sign of zombies. She had to force her breathing down and listen closely but there was no sound at first that is then came a faint banging noise from inside the building. Bang, bang, bang, the same sound which sounded a lot like something metal striking against the wall. As there was no other sound then that she pulled back from the wall and took another look around. Nothing just as before there was a couple of cars in the parking lot most of which had already been stripped down to almost nothing. Which made it unlikely anything would be hiding behind them so she rounded the corner now to return to searching. Stepping round the corner Ashley found that the first building was a small locker room with a door leading into the ladies side and the guys side. Checking the ladies side first the door would not move more then an inch as something was holding it tightly in place as for the mans it opened with no problem. With the door open and the small windows on the side not completely covered with dirt she could just make out the first row of small lockers but nothing past that point and this is where the flashlight came in handy.. (Mind if I join in pretty please?)

(Thanks for the description =D)
Andy looked at the woman as she apologized. He looked her over, taking an external inventory of what she was carrying. After realizing that she would only pose a threat if she reached for ehr pistol or machete, Andy knew he would be able to shoot her before she could shoot him. Knowing this, he elt off the toigh guy act a moment.
"Well, I'll be damned, you ARE human!" He shouted in excitement, "What are you doing in these parts, how'd you get here?" he said, but then looked at the horizon, "Tell me when we get inside. It's almost sundown, you don't want to get caught here after sundown. Thats when THEY come out," Andy said, motioning Ashley tothe house behind him.

ZombieApocalypseSurvivor Richie walked through the first floor of the house, admiring its antiquity. "Hey, I found the basement!" he shouted as he opened a trap door underneath the dining room table. He pulled out a flashlight from his bag and climbed down. The basement was surprisingly large, but looked more like an old fruit cellar. He explored the dark fruit cellar, his visibility limited to the narow beam of light generated from his flashlight. He saw a door on the far side of the cellar and walked towards it. He opened the door without a care in the world. Suddenly, a dead body fell out on top of him, knocking him to the ground. "Holy God! Help! Maryse!" He shouted as he tried to get the limp body off of him in a panic.
Maryse paid little attention to Richie as she explored the house's second floor.
Traditionally, Victorian bedrooms included a bed, armoire, washstand, and dressing table, and dark woods such as mahogany, rosewood, and walnut were favored. Floors were covered with small rugs that often featured floral motifs, in color combinations such as blue and pink or red, green, and gold. Wallpaper was also a common feature. This house was no different. The beds were elaborately designed and dressed with canopies and drapes, lots of pillows, flounces, ribbons, and other trims, and the furniture was embellished with carvings and pediments. The problem was, everything was old and timeworn. The fabrics were faded and moth-eaten. Even the wallpaper, once a perilously deep green with gold filigree, was dulled with age.
Suddenly, Maryse heard Richie screaming for her from elsewhere in the house. She spun on her heel and ran down the staircase. She searched the ground floor, calling his name, but she couldn't find him. Finally, she found the trapdoor that led down into the basement. That must be where he went, she decided. She descended into the darkness without hesitation.
There, in the beam of his flashlight, Maryse saw Richie struggling beneath a partially decayed corpse.
Maryse rushed to Richie's aid, grabbing the corpse and throwing it off of him with all her might. It didn't attempt to attack her, to her surprise. Instead, it fell to the floor, motionless. So, she thought, it's not zombie. Just a corpse. An ordinary corpse. Somehow, that knowledge didn't make her feel any better. She picked up Richie's flashlight and shined it at the corpse. It was, or had been, a woman. From the looks of her, she'd been dead for a while. A long while. Beneath dainty auburn bangs, her face hung slack, bloated and discolored, the skin loosening. Her blackened tongue dangled from her gaping mouth. Her eyes, dry and sunken and filmed over beneath swollen lids, stared directly at her, at Maryse. It was unsettling.
Maryse turned back to Richie and helped him up. "Are you alright?" she asked him.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine," Richie said, standing up and brushing the dirt off his front, "It came out of the closet, I thought it was a zombie. Good to know it is only a corpse though...a dead corpse." Richie looked at the eyes of the woman and shuddered as chills ran cold down his spine. Then he noticed something peculiar. He bent down and looked at the body, moving pieces of clothes around as he investigated the corpse.
"Hey, Maryse, there's something weird about this corpse," He said, trying to touch as little of the body as possible as he investigated it.

Richie suddenly got another chill down his spine.
"I have a bad feeling about this place," he said, looking at Maryse in mild terror, and then noticed the corpses face, "I think we need to leave. Or at least report this to someone. But if we report this to someone, we might end up like her, you never know. She might have stumbled across another body somewhere that looked like this and told someone. But hey, I'm a conspiracy theorist, so I think crazy sometimes. This does strike me as surprisingly odd, though. all these buildings had to have been swept for zombies and rebels before being cleared for civilians. They wouldn't have missed a room. Maybe in their initial search, but they've been here for quite some time."
