[b]Bex - Catacombs[/b] It all happened so quickly. Bex had seen the soldiers turning into the hallway before anyone else. His mouth fell agape and he boggled at the sight for the few precious seconds it took to take it all in. These guys were armed and organized, while Bex and the others were drunk; It didn't take a genius to figure out how this would go. Too buzzed to do much else, Bex managed to grab Al and pull him away as the shots rang out. Gregory and the other two raiders died before they had even realized what was happening. Bottles fell to the ground, smashing and sending glass skidding across the floor. Bex pulled Al into a new corridor, the other man still not registering what was happening. Then Bex ran. --- [b]Tyler - Cells - Floyd (Before Daniel has freed Emma and before Brad talks to Lynn)[/b] He was about to lay into Floyd some more when Brad suddenly appeared, breathing heavily. "There's a fucking group of men storming our gates!" he yelled. Tyler forgot all about Floyd and turned toward Brad. "The hell are you on about?" Brad turned and pointed behind him. "There's a stand-off at the entrance. Not sure who it is." For a few seconds, Tyler was quiet. "... Of course." He stepped forward and grabbed Brad by the collar. "Find my daughter, Brad." Brad nodded incessantly, licking his lips. Tyler glanced toward Floyd. "You, secure the armory. Other men should be there." Tyler let go of Brad. "Go now!" he yelled and Brad ran away, stumbling over himself in the process. Tyler waited patiently for Floyd to follow after him. --- [b]Lauren - Catacombs - Katie[/b] Battle cries erupted up and down the corridor. The men were funnelling toward the entrance of the catacombs in order to meet the enemy head on. Lauren had no idea what who was attacking, but a part of her felt like this was the break she had been waiting for. No matter the outcome of today, Lauren knew she wouldn't get another opportunity like this. She just had to find Katie. "Katie! Katie, something's happened! I need you to come out right now!" Lauren walked up and down the corridor, yelling toward the air vent. "Please, Katie!" --- [b]Brad - Lynn's Cell - Lynn (Before Daniel has freed Emma in the deeper part of the cells)[/b] After Floyd and Tyler had vacated the cells, Brad sneaked back in. He walked up to Lynn's cell, a smile on his face. "You brought your friends, huh? This is your fault, isn't it?" The short mousey man caressed the bars with his hands. "You're bad news, I knew it. All you women are. I told the boss this, but he didn't listen. We could have been the strongest damn fucks in this whole goddamn city! But you're all poison!" Despite his words, Brad was starting to giggle now. He was afraid. The man had been afraid all his life, always worrying about what others thought of him. Countless dark nights spent in his room, staring up at the ceiling and alone in his empty world. Brad had sometimes felt like the loneliest guy in the world, but he could never let people in. For if they knew the real him, they would most certainly have hated him. He had found Tyler soon after everything started. Tyler had been a man so incredibly sure of himself that it almost frightened Brad. He was powerful and intimidating, two things Brad had never felt about himself. Tyler was everything Brad wished he could be; It was no wonder why he grew to admire the man with every fibre of his being. "Everything was going good, Lynn, until you came along. You gave him the idea that he could change it all. The world has rules and won't fucking change for one man, Lynn! But the boss will never accept that. That's why he... he-" Brad gripped the bars of the cell tightly. He brought his face close to the bars. "And now you hate him. But it's you who did it, girl. All on you. You're so fucking toxic, you can't even stand it." Brad reached down now and unlocked the cell door. He took off the machete strapped to his back. "It's better this way, girl. Better for you, too." --- [b]Aleck Wyrde - Catacombs (After Daniel has freed Emma in the deeper part of the cells)[/b] [url=http://www.roleplayerguild.com/topics/18723/posts/ic?page=10#post-580678]This bombing event finally happened for real, though not on the hideout's entrance gate.[/url] The gates on the walker cages in the arena were blown open, setting free the small collection of undead to wreak further havoc on the raiders. Aleck Wyrde had been responsible for the explosion, though he hadn't known his attack would coincide with Haywood's. He had left his sister Gwen safely outside. With the raiders scattered and their attention elsewhere, it had been easy for the man to sneak inside and set up the explosives. Now with his plan complete, Aleck searched for Emma, his gun out and ready to take down any enemies in his path.
