Chaos, mass panic, a more than qualified way of explaining the current predicament that had engulfed the cafeteria in moments.  Everyone would of course handle and react to it in their own way.  Irvine himself tried to remain calm as his brain began to process what was happening.  He had become grouped with a few other survivors, though he had no way of focusing himself on them enough to notice if he realised any of them.  Irvine shook his head quickly to settle himself and focus.

He turned to look at the other survivors trying to gauge how they were handling their current predicament.  Irvine sighed as he took a step towards one of the younger members of the group who seemed to not be grasping the situation to well.  He reached out and placed a hand on his shoulder, as calm as he could to try and not startle the boy further. [color=ed1c24]"Hang in there, you'll be alright.  Showing fear is the first step toward going off course.  Adversity is cruel, letting your fear take hold will only make it crueller."[/color]  With that said Irvine moved his hand and reached into his pockets sliding on his gloves.  Irvine went back to assessing the room and watching the 7 zombies slow approach.  As another addressed the group, he hesitated then responded. [color=ed1c24]"We may be able to get around them if we're careful.  This room isn't exactly small, and we could use the furniture to our advantage and break their path of advancement."[/color]
