Saturday, early afternoon: A small strike team heads for Connor's office

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

Beka, Callisto, and Rogue make for Connor's office. They're alone, light on their feet, and heavily armed.

Rogue walks along beside Beka and Callisto, keeping a careful eye out for anything odd. "So, we think last night was...the first wave?" she asks, thought she doesn't stop scanning the room.

Callisto nods, eyeing the hallway for something to attack. "Nothing else makes sense."

They'd talked about this last night on the bathroom run, so Beka picks up where Callisto left off. "They knew where we were. Didn't come in force to kill us. They're testing us."

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

"Yeah, I guess." She gives the other two a lopsided, humorless grin. "I didn't think zombies were that smart."

Still watching the halls as the move, Rogue says, "You know, I can handle police, and mutants, even the freakin' army, but this? This is way outside even MY experience."

"I don't think they're on their own. Zombies don't just show up." Beka has a (canon) fondness for horror stories. They never do just "show up". "There's always someone behind them."

Abruptly, she stops. Cocks her head. Shakes it. "Thought I heard something. Where is Connor's office?"

[marieann-d.livejournal.com]

Rogue stops too, holding her hand up to quiet the others. "Yeah, I definitely hear something. Someone--or somethin', I can't tell--is walkin' toward us." She looks at the other two. "Not that I'm against fightin', or anything, but maybe we should move out, save our ammo for later?"

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

"Good plan. Let's head."

Callisto looks like she'd rather fight, but Beka puts a hand on her arm. "Take the rear. If they come, you can be first, and we'll waste a lot less ammo."

The three girls hurry down the hall, looking for Connor's office. "I wonder if Pheebs is still in the weapons locker?" Rogue asks. "And if there's anything left, really."

((OOC: For the record... unless you know what security the principal's got in place in that office? It's quite possible she's going to come back and explain that you all died by acid bath, or the place just blew up. She did mention that she did bad things to the place.))

((OOC: Methos sent us. Perhaps he was trying to kill us? *grins* We can get stopped on the way to somewhere. Anywhere there's likely to be ammo?)

*Rushes across the campus, stopping Beka and co before they reach the office*

Beka, I got your message about the raid. Yeah, we need ammo and munitions and whatnot... but the *principal's office*? I wouldn't go messing with her or her space if I were you. (But you being you, will probably ignore me). Look last night Phoebe was passing out weapons from the firing range. You might want to check there for what's left.

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

*nods* Methos must not have been thinking. We're headed to the range already.

[wraithbaitjohn.livejournal.com]

Good. See what you can scare up. If you find a few extra clips for a P-90, you know where to find me. :)


[ooc: yeah, I know, you said you needed 'someone' to head you off... so... [g]]

[valentine-tart.livejournal.com]

P-90, clips, check. I'll find you. Or find me. I'll be with Jack's gun group.





[OOC: appreciated. *g*]

HEADING BACK

"I don't know if there can ever be enough ammo, but I think we've got everything there is...I'll take point. Let's go."

Right behind ya.

Beka leads the way back to the library.

They make a quick pass by the gymnasium, where people are massing.

"Hey, Shep!" she calls out as they pass. She mimes "got something for you" and leaves a few clips with someone at the door.

Beka drops bag, whirls, pulse pistol drawn. She gets off a shot just as a zombies reaching for Callisto.

"Son of a bitch!" Rogue takes a shot at a zombie's head. "We need to get back to the library, NOW!" she yells.

I love the smell of slaughter in the morning.

"Run. I've got the rear. Go go."

Fires off another shot, misses the head but clips the neck. Zombie blood gouts everywhere.

Gross.

Don't think, Valentine. Shoot.

Rogue takes another shot at another zombie, splaying its brains across the wall. She start to run, but she's a little off balance with all the ammo in her bag, so she can't get a shot off without stopping. "Goddamn it, Marie, why ya gotta be so damn small?!" she yells, at no one in particular.
