[sup][b][u]INTERACTING WITH:[/u] EACH OTHER
[u]LOCATION:[/u] AN ALLEY IN NEWNAN[/b][/sup][/centre][hr][hr]
The entire situation was a mess. He'd been stationed at the entrance with Kris, to allow in the Newnan folks that were injured due to the invasion or the damn zombnado that rolled around town not long ago. Sidd kept his eyes peeled for each face that passed by, nodding as he recognised most of them even if he didn't [i]know[/i] them persay.

He pointed at the door, the crowd following the direction into the infirmary before all hell broke loose. Maria - Kris' sister - was being guided back inside with the help of Zoie with a bleeding arm bound with a belt. He could only guess that something went wrong and she had been bitten while outside. He followed behind Kris, hestitantly shutting the door and just [i]praying[/i] that no one else would need the infirmary or to enter while they were gone.

Sidd didn't know Maria as well as Meg knew her. He was the recluse, the hermit while she was the one that made friends and could spend hours talking about anything and everything. He shut the door behind them as they entered the infirmary once more only to have Maria barking at the redneck biker guy. He was of no help; [i]again[/i] and he was glad that Froggy had sent him back out to keep guard. If Kris couldn't do it, at least he could be of some use to Newnan. He scurried back out, just as silently and winced as the muffled cries of agony filled the court room. He grabbed the baseball bat that was lying against the wall of the room, picking it up in case some of the [i]unwanted[/i] idiots decided to try entering the court.

He swung the bat and hit a straggler walker that had somehow managed to crawl into the courthouse during their disappearance. His upperbody strength wasn't high, certainly, but adrenaline was such a strange and useful hormone in situations like these. Part of him couldn't believe such mayham lasted only a day. Not even that; just that morning everyone was safe and alive. Vivian, Alicia, Leann - so many losses, and countless more he didn't even know about. Today was a day of great loss, and he wondered that if Newnan didn't have helpful newbies like Zoie or the doctor inside - Froggy? - would they have even lasted this long? He'd stood by Ms Sally, later approached by Zoie soon enough.

He stood quietly, listening but fiddling with the bat in his hand. What could he have said in a conversation he was not a part of anyway? His mind wandered back to Meg again. Was she safe? Was she even still alive? Sidd had seen her in passing before she'd gone for the mission with Caesar, and then again with Ash. Both times she refused to talk, second time she didn't even [i]know[/i] he was around. Was that how things were going to be? If she was dead, was the last time they talked going to be his last memory of her? 

Speaking of Meg, Ash was finally inside the courthouse - so Newnan still had their leader for now.  Ash's mention of Meg to Zoie was what calmed the twin a little. His confirmation that Meg was still alive and kicking. Seeing people act a lot calmer, Siddharth could only guess that Hell was finally over and Newnan was (partially) safe again. Or safe enough for him to look for her.

After looking throughout the death ridden town, Sidd eventually found his twin leaning against the wall in an alley, her head in her hands pushed between her knees. Sidd noted how she was curling in on herself, as if to hide herself from everyone else and to pretend she never existed. It was a form he recognised all too well. Saying nothing (really, it seemed like that was all he was good for), Sidd crouched beside her, his arm pressed against her so she could know exactly who it was.

It was a strange feeling, being a twin. He could simply sit beside her quietly and she'd just [i]know[/i] it was him. It wouldn't take a word, not even a touch for Meg to know it was family right beside her.

[color=f08080]"I watched him get bit."[/color] Came her muffled voice. Sidd looked over his shoulder at her dark hair without any words, just letting her talk it out. [color=f08080]"Caesar. He helped me and got bit because of it. I saw Leann go down too. Shot. Right in front of me."[/color]

[color=00a651]"It's not your fault, you couldn't do anything-"[/color]

[color=f08080]"Really? Maybe not for Leann, but I could've helped Lorna or Caesar. I- I could've been more vigilant o-or less [i]useless[/i]."[/color]

[color=00a651]"You did all you could."[/color]

[color=f08080]"I really haven't. I was out of my depth. I was supposed to be a driver, it was a simple task - but some asshat decided to shoot the tyres and force us to walk to the armoury. We lost so many because of him. And then Zoie decided to use [i]herself[/i] as a distraction-- who would do that for people you don't know?"[/color] Meg looked up, running her shaky hand over her tangled, dirty hair and pulling the strands away from her face.

[color=00a651]"It's over now, Noni. They were able to drive out the walkers and kill the intruders. We have one of them held hostage so we can find out whose idea it was to come here."[/color] Siddharth assured his sister, who didn't look very assured.

[color=f08080]"Noni? Wow, I haven't heard that in a while."[/color] Meg let out an unimpressed snort, Sidd letting out a laugh in response.

[color=00a651]"Well, you're still Noni to me."[/color]

Meghna's face fell again, and she looked away in the direction of a pebble not too far off from the two of them. [color=f08080]"Why do you keep trying?"[/color] She asked. [color=f08080]"Dad stopped trying, hell he didn't try in the first place, so why're you still trying to keep a relationship with me?"[/color]

[color=00a651]"You're my sister,"[/color] was the immediate response. Siddharth didn't think nor hesitate. [color=00a651]"My [i]twin[/i]. I won't give up on you. We're blood, Noni, and that's all we have in this godforsaken world."[/color]

There was a pause from both sides, before Siddharth cleared his throat and said the words that melted the hatred surrounding Meghna's heart.

[color=00a651]"I'm here for you, Meghna, I always have been and I always will be."[/color]
