"Hey, you okay? Can you stand?"
Nibble doesn’t respond but instead is breathing and coughing due to the effects of gas from before
"Don't give up on me now..." helps nibble to stand. "cough....cough..." I say, trying to get nibble to say something.
Nibbles are terrified, she nods slowly, getting up, still dizzy from the gas
holds nibble by the shoulders and looks into their eyes. "I saved you. Do you understand? Do you remember your name?"
"Okay then, let's find you somewhere safe." looks around "How did you end up like this? Were you attacked by zombies?"
Points to some government vehicles
grips her gun tightly and stares at the government vehicles. "I see... Those damn government people are behind all this. But don't worry. I'll keep you safe." holds nibble's hand and guides them away from the vehicles. "We can't trust those government people. They're responsible for the whole mess."
They manage to get out of the city limits
"Phew, we made it. We need to find shelter. Do you have any family?" looks at nibble, worried
Shakes head, pointing to her home
eyes light up "That's perfect. We'll head to your house then." follows nibble to their home, while scanning the area for any possible threats.
It’s a small single house
"Looks safe enough. Let's go inside and secure the door." carefully enters the house and closes the door behind them, checking for any signs of danger.
*there’s barricades over the windows
notices the barricades on the windows and nods approvingly "Good, they've already fortified the place. It should be safe for now."
…I don’t remember where i was taken from tho..
"Don't worry about that right now. We can figure it out later." walks towards the couch and sits down, gesturing for nibble to join her
The house is completely empty except for some comfort items
glances around the empty house and frowns "We'll need to scavenge for supplies. Do you know any places nearby where we might find food and weapons?"
"That's alright. We'll find a way." stands up and walks over to a nearby closet, searching through it for anything useful
..I don’t even know where i live…i-it’s probably not even nearby..
"Don't worry about that. We'll figure it out together." smiles warmly and pats nibble on the shoulder
pulls out a map from her bag and spreads it out on the table "Let's take a look at this map and see if we can find any possible locations nearby.
Ooh…ummm…Nibble squints trying to read the map
"Here, let me help you." leans in closer to nibble, pointing at different locations on the map "See this mark here? That's a grocery store.
What? Store? Store? gasps umm gas station! There’s a gas station a little north of us
"Great, we'll head there first. It should have some supplies that will help us survive." stands up and grabs her weapon, ready to head out
puts her weapon securely in its holster and checks her ammo "Alright, we need to be careful.
Whispering N-no i-i’m scared…
kneels down in front of nibble, taking their hands in hers "I understand that you're scared, but we'll stick together and make sure nothing bad happens. I promise." gives nibble a reassuring smile
O-ok…I think I really need new clothes tho…
"That's a good idea. We'll find some new clothes for you once we get to the gas station." pauses and thinks for a moment
Some men pass by in military outfits
narrows her eyes and whispers urgently "Stay here, nibble. Don't make a sound." carefully hides herself and nibble behind some nearby crates
peeks out from behind the crate, observing the men "They seem dangerous. We can't let them catch us. We need to find another way to the gas station."
But why aren’t they attacking us? They killed everyone else…
whispers urgently "We need to be cautious. Just because they haven't attacked us yet doesn't mean they won't. Let's stay hidden and try to find another route to the gas station."
takes out her radio and contacts her team "This is Jill Valentine, S.T.A.R.S. We have multiple hostile contacts approaching our location. Requesting immediate backup."
