"Oh the weather outside is frightful... dum da dum, da dum, da dum dum" Ryan sang surprisingly well.

He felt an elbow in his arm as Luke physically halted his song. The freezing night air was stabbing into his skin like a thousand needles, Ryan hugged hus arms around his chest trying to keep his core temperature up. Luke was huddled in close in an attempt to maintain their body heat.

"I never watched the weather forecast back in old world... but I sure would have loved a heads up for tonight, even if it was inaccurate to some degree." He chattered. 

Ryan sropped dead in his tracks and held his arm out to tell Luke to hold, ahead Ryan could see a large group of shufflers, possibly the group he had seen earlier. He nudged Luke and pointed with his head at the approaching threat. Ryan looked to the row of vehicles to his right, a few looked operational still whilst others, well they wouldn't pass an MOT thats for sure.
Ryan headed for a black sedan, as he approached however he noticed a amall light blinking on the dash. This one was locked and the alarm primed, he walked on. The next vehicle he stopped at was a Blue SUV, the dash was without the blinking arm light. he lifted the handle slightly and felt the catch, he stopped and signalled for Luke.

"This ones good to go, we'll need a distraction to give us time to either find the keys or hot wire... we'll give ourselves one minute to locate the keys, after that it's straight on to the wires." He told.
The sound of the engine turning over would announce their presence to the entire block, they needed a distraction. Ryan stepped back from the car and looked around the floor, a few feet away he saw an iron bar, probably broken off of one of the residential fences. He told Luke to standby at the car before grabbing the bar and cautiously heading down the street toward the horde. 

A small side alley opened up to his right, after peering down and checking it was clear he slipped into it. After thirty yards the alley opened up into a cross roads and Ryan turned right heading toward the main road which intersected the one he had just left Luke on. He made every effort to stay silent as he approached the mouth of the alley, the road was clear apart from the slow moving horde which appeared to making its way toward Luke. Ryan headed right down the road and spotted what he was looking for... an alarmed car. He made his way back to the mouth of the alley and felt the weight of bar in his hand, turning it over and gently shaking it allowing him to calculate.
He pulled his arm back and flung it forward toward the car, the iron bar leaving his grip and twirling gracefully in the air towards its target, he didn't wait for the connection and turned back into the alley running, he just hoped it was still clear.

The alarm was loud, almost ear piercing even from this distance. Ryan had signalled to Luke to get going on starting the car as soon as he emerged from the alley.
Now, sat in the SUV with Luke fumbling away at the wires, Ryan looked on in disbelief at the number of shufflers that were sprinting toward the sound of alarm on the road ahead... he noticed that most of them were actually brainers, weaving through the crowd in a kind of small gang, even from a distance they looked more determined and coordinated. Ryans attention was grasped by the sound if the engine of kicking into life and the rev of the engine as Luke shifted it into first gear.

"Go go drive! Get us out of the city! We won't last long if we stay here." He ordered
