[@Sol Grim]


She couldn't think on it, the face he made, the sound of his body hitting the floor. No, she could not think about it, a chill running down her spine, a cold hand gripping her throat. It was her ex, it was his hand she was sure of it. 
Turning over the side of her saddle she began to dry heave, only to brush it off and keep riding. Let it pass Reena, you never killed a person, it will get easier, it will pass. Don't think about it.

That when she heard Johnny explain what he done before. How he was a drug dealer, looking at the male she found herself trying to hang onto that information. "So, you know how to deal with people of the worst kind? Murderers? Thats right, think of how to survive. Giving a sigh she looked ahead. "You saved me back there, can't judge you for what you done before. Your skilled in things I'm not, so long as you don't point that gun at me your gonna be fine in my book." 
A small laugh of culty escaped her. Guess she was taking the idea of killing someone better than most, but that still was not good. "If we met before all this happened, I would have told you to get the fuck off my property. Now, well I just can't wrap my head around how you do all this."

Moving down the steps, James began to feel lost, the phone in his pocket turned silent he flipped it open only to find no messages. Right, Reena knew he was alive, no need to text him. His throat was dry, his body hurt, yet he could not bring himself to rest, his belly empty yet he could not eat. 
"What about Reena and Jonny? They went to town!" the moment he heard about the herd he shuddered, he could see Roach and Azazel, both horses looking nervous, sweat eating their flanks yet under their training could not bring themselves to leave. He needed to find Reena, she was a survivor but could she last out there?
Just as he was about to go out though, he saw the fire red hair in the distance. A strong hand keeping Vader back, Gandolf dwarfing them both. Without another word he ran up, only to be beat by Ethan as he sung the door open.

Without waiting he ran up and hugged Reena as she dismounted. "Reena what happened to you? Theres a herd of them coming this way. We need to hide," Reena could feel the fear leaving the kid. Returning the hug she patted his head, only for the information to click.
"Jhonny get down"

Without another word she began tearing off the tack, her horses thrashing, dancing about. "What are you doing?" Reena did not even look back. "If faced with a situation where you can't protect your horse, you let em go, try to find them later, they have a better chance of surviving than we do."
Vader was the first to be untacked, the stallion moving a bit yet staying in range she done the same with the others. Only when she smacked Roach on the rump and yelled at them to go did they charge off. Kicking up dirt and making their way down the hills. "They know how to use their instincts, hopefully we can find them again one day. Come on, if what this guy is sayings is true than its best to get down now."


She grabbed her saddle bags, throwing them over her shoulder and taking off the water canisters from the saddles. "Good thing we found supplies."

James found himself sitting in the basement again. His eyes glued on the tiny window while he kept quiet. Reena working on her crossbow, making sure it was not damaged when the guys threw it. She looked like a mess, with a bloody face and cloths hair in tangles with a few leaves or twigs, it was not even a weekend and yet she already looked the part for the end of the world.
