[b] Samantha - The road - Abram/Jess/Leah[/b]

Samantha watched as a young girl came out running with a weapon in her hand and soon after a man. She didn't know what to do, but she wasn't here to hurt anyone, so she nodded and put her weapon away. "I'm sorry." She lifted her hands to show she meant not harm and walked over a tad bit closer when their weapons were put away. "I heard the tires, the baby, and I jumped to conclusions. I didn't mean to scare anyone. I'm Samantha." 

"I understand you though. Not everyone that one bumps in to is a saint." She smiled and turned her attention to the truck that had caused the ruckus. "The noise will attract biters though." She bit her lip and looked back at the three. "You.... You guys wouldn't happen to have a place to stay, would you? Or at least point me off to the nearest town here?"

[b]Scarlett - Baton Rouge[/b]

Scarlett turned to Tina after she had finished speaking, shrugging and shaking her head in answer to her question. "I have no idea who those guys were. I'm sorry." She smiled at Elyse as she made her comment and shook her head once more. "I'm not as strong as you think. Just the need to survive. And no, I'm not from here either. I'm from Phoenix, Arizona. I just go to school here. I rarely ever leave the campus and when I do it's because I'm going home on car." 

She took a look at Jace and smiled at him kindly, "Thank you. I'll be glad to help out whenever you guys go on your runs. Anything to repay you for your hospitality." She listened closely to Elyse speak and smiled as they laughed, leaning back on her chair. When Katie spoke, Scarlett quickly turned her attention to her. She quickly panicked as she heard the young girl's cry, looking around nervously before reaching out to her. "Hey, sweetie... Katie, it's okay." She walked over and placed her hands on Katie's shoulders, rubbing them softly in an attempt to calm her down. "Hey, your daddy just went to check out the restroom, don't worry. He'll come back upstairs when he's done. I promise." Scarlett smiled at her to reassure her and tried wiping her tears off. "Don't cry, okay? You can wait with me until he comes up here." Her voice was soft and sincere. She could only hope that the little girl was a lot like her little sister and would trust her enough until Tyler came back.
