[center][h1] [color=f7976a]Jenna[/color] and [color=8dc73f]Haru[/color] [/h1][/center] Haru stayed toward the back of the cafeteria watching everyone interact. He wasn't trying to be rude it was just that there wasn't anyone to really talk to since the outbreak. Finally the teenager decided to walk over to Jenna just to not look like a kill joy. He cleared his throat before speaking as if to announce his presence. [color=8dc73f]"Anything I could help with?"[/color] Jenna looked up and saw Haru offering to help. [color=f7976a]"I think that is it for dinner but I did try a new desert. Can you help in the line so I can grab it out of the oven?"[/color] [color=8dc73f]"Yeah. No problem."[/color] The young man went to work helping the little ones with their plates and keeping it moving while watching Erin. The girl seemed to be a bit confused in when to go but other than that she was fine. Once everyone was served a sigh escaped Haru's lips. [color=8dc73f]"Don't know how you do it Jenna. You always cooking really good food while others seem that they can't get it right." [/color]He commented politely. Jenna chuckled lightly. [color=f7976a]"I stumbled on it as a hidden talent of mine. I had never cooked at all and one day I just got tired of eating what other people served. So much of it was tasteless and boring. I stepped into the kitchen and poof. Apparently I had a knack for it. The messed up part about being a model who cooks better than many restaurant chef's is so much food is fattening. A little tip, mine isn't. I never gained a pound cooking for myself."[/color] [color=8dc73f]"Wait. You were a model before all this happened? I didn't know that. Then again I only know what Erin was like before all of this. How was the modeling business?" Haru asked curiously manner before backtracking his words. " That is if it's alright to talk about." [/color] Jenna nodded. [color=f7976a]"Yes I don't mind. Last month I was on the cover of People magazine and this month I'm feeding people so we can survive in a world of flesh eating zombies. Talk about life kicking you in the teeth." [/color]She smirked. [color=f7976a]"Modelling is actually a lot harder than people think it is. So here you get to taste test."[/color] She offered him a piece of what looked like ordinary cake. It was layered so that he would get a different layer the further into the cake he got. It was like 4 cakes in one and it was good, she thought. [color=8dc73f]"I always thought that hunting was the hardest part. But that was before I met Vivian Moon and found out how wrong I was."[/color] The guy commented before starting the piece. It was almost like a gift from God in his mind. You could taste the cakes as well as the frosting all in the right blend then again he was just odd in that aspect. [color=8dc73f]"If I didn't know better I would swear you were a goddess from Earth. Could you maybe teach me how to cook sometime? Or at least let me help in order to learn?"[/color] He asked. Jenna nodded. [color=f7976a]"I'm here everyday just come in when you want to. " [/color] [center][h1] [color=f49ac2]Nikki[/color] and [color=f7941d]Vincent[/color] [/h1][/center] Nikki watched the door shut and heard Alex' footsteps down the hall and she looked at Vincent. [color=f49ac2]"So were you an enforcer or a hitman? or were they basically the same thing?"[/color] [color=f7941d]"Actually I was Money Shark. I was allowed to do any means necessary in order to receive the mob's money back. On the status bar I was the low man on totem pole. I think that's the right term Americans use right?"[/color] Vincent asked. American phrases were very confusing to him since there was so many. She looked at him. [color=f49ac2]"So I am going to assume you were good at your job and that you killed a lot of people. Would that be accurate? How many did you kill would you say?"[/color] [color=f7941d]"Yes in the beginning. I was so happy that it didn't really bother me. After a while I began losing taste for the senseless blood spill. In the end I was caught and offered a position in the army. Better then life in prison." [/color]The man explained. Nikki was quiet for a moment. [color=f49ac2]"I understand things better now. I was hoping that you weren't as bad as I had thought. You are worse. After Matt and Kat get back tomorrow I want you to leave. The others can stay but I can't have you here with such disregard for human life."[/color] Nikki held Grace, [color=f49ac2]"You and Erin can stay over there on that side of the room and Grace and I will stay over here. That way we can keep up appearances for Grace's safety. But If you come near her I'll gut you."[/color] [color=f7941d]"Alright. Erin will be coming with us. Unless you want to keep her here like a dog. Don't think I know fear inside someone's eyes. Excuse me Nikki. I have some packing to do."[/color] The man said before storming off. Nikki's only fear was of not being able to protect Gracie. She knew she could drop him no problem but she wiped her eye of a few tears. She had not expected to find that she had been beginning to like him. There was no way she could keep him in the school with that kind of past. Hugging Gracie to her, the baby mumbled inaudibly as she was almost asleep. collaboration between myself and [@Demonic Angel]
