It had been a long three days of walking, Not that Katrina actually had any idea of the day or time as such a thing seemed to the last thing on ones mind but ever since she got split up from the last group she had been constantly on the move avoiding big cities and sticking to smaller roads. This meant the supplies were limited but she did get lucky from time to time, She had gone through a couple of cars as Syphoning fuel from abandoned vehicles has always left a evil after taste in her mouth she hated and the fact that some one already beat her to it.

The most recent car she drove was a 91' Ford Escort, A decent little runner but as luck would have it the dam thing ran out of fuel and Katrina simply had no fuel left or anything to syphon fuel with. To this she grabbed her things or whatever she had left and just walked down the side of the road and that was pretty much all she had been doing for days lost in her own little world, She didn't really eat because she didn't want to use the last few cans left up to soon but did have a swig of flavoured water from time to time and resisting the urge to drink it all because she was thirsty, God would she kill for a McDonald's and a large fizzy drink. 

Katrina felt and probably look like crap after being in this hell for a year but hey no one was perfect but a hot bath would be nice to! It certainly was an enticing thought to say the least but being in her little lost world it was quite amazing how she was found and attacked by some one or walkers, So at least it was good to pick a quiet road but if she had to admit anything at all to herself it was the fact she was actually lost with no road map. But fate playing new game for Katrina today for unknown to her she was actually wondering to a bunch of crashed vehicles which had a group of people there but she was none the wiser coming in from a distance.

Well that was until she heard some sort of commotion going on over there which made her stop in her tracks and remain quiet as possible, Was she spotted or made out by anyone? If so where they bandits? Or friendlies? These ran through her head like it was the Indy 500 as she had to quickly think on her feet. But then things really got buggered when some jackass turned up in a truck playing metal music, Seriously where has the guy been this past year? On a luxury cruise! Either way it didn't matter it was no longer safe at all and Katrina took the distraction as a opportunity to move out of sight but instead of leaving her curiosity got the better of her and actually sneaked up behind a vehicle to quietly listen to the group talk and get some sort of visual. 

3 men an a kid, with a gun! [i]'This day just gets better and better'[/i] She thought to herself. It appear the situation was tense and clearly was not a group that had been hanging around together, was it a trap? which group was setting up who? It was giving Katrina a headache and just wished that she just left but it had been so long since she had seen a living person. Unknown to all however the noise would no doubt be drawing attention or maybe they all knew and that was why the situation was tense in the first place, Suddenly Katrina felt something touch her foot which made her tense up before looking down. Not believing it there was an actual walker under the dam car, trapped by the way it was not really moving much further with only an arm and head reaching out in a vein attempt to get the young woman. For one it explained how this pile up probably happened and secondly it was so quiet it made sense ho no one noticed unless they came close enough for it to attempt a grab. 

But it was enough to make Katrina jump out of her skin and practically falling out from her cover [b]"Oh shit"[/b] she screamed falling on her ass, Her voice had a Latin tone to it from her Puerto Rican heritage. On instinct she grabbed the first weapon she could from it's sheath which was her hatchet knife and quickly shuffled over on her knees driving the weapon into the back of the skull of the trapped walker which made a rather disgusting sound on impact and followed up with another blow for good measure before removing the weapon.

It wasn't until this point when she stood back up from behind her car picking up her bag and placing it over her shoulder that she remember that there was an audience and a tense one at that. She immediately took a step back firmly gripping her hatchet she had drawn not that it would do any good against some one who is fully mobile with a gun or a bunch of them for that fact. putting herself into a bit of a defensive stance, Katrina was on edge and frightened, After all there was three fully grown men and if that was not enough a kid with a gun... As if that wasn't dangerous. [b]"Stay back"[/b] was all she could come up with ass he shuffled a further a back by a few steps, she felt she was good as dead now after surviving for such a long time and just from a series of mistakes to.
