The Walking Dead - Northwards

I feel like Carter and Chris would shake hands while slightly suspicious of each other while Clover and Claire would just glare at each other from behind their respected partner XD

The Walking Dead - Northwards

There were just so many good characters to have mine bump into. I chose Jack though almost wish I'd gone with Nero...Gr...I can't be everywhere at once -_- Well hopefully I get the chance to have my characters interact with everyones. I feel bad for Jack though. Claire is almost as untrusting as Clover, she's just not going to point a gun in their face and tell them that without trying to give them a chance first, though that may be due tot he fact that she doesn't have a gun :p

Naruto: Shinjitsu no Mon

Well I'm interested and will probably get a character up either sometime this week or over the weekend (Probably two since I want to get one of my higher ranked guys in here just have to get the genin up first).

The Walking Dead - Northwards

The Walking Dead - Northwards

Chris and Claire listened intently to every word of the man. Chris smirked finally realizing why the name was familiar. This was one of the guys that his government teacher kept calling either an odd ball or an idiot...oh what a fun class that was. Claire smiled a little and pulled out two of her knives and handed one to Chris to use as well. As she started to cut though she stopped mid way and looked at Chris when Jack had asked about how they'd gotten this far. Chris looked back at her, a silent conversation went between the two for a few seconds before Chris looked back at Jack.

"We've been in a few groups...but never stayed with any of them...We um." He paused for a second trying to think of a good way t say things. "We decided it was best to split from the groups each time though, and um yeah." He looked at the fire. He didn't want to lie to the man. Especially when there was an actual chance of sticking together, but if he told him how they stole from other groups and leaving them to fend for themselves what sort of message would that send...?

Claire on the other hand, while she hated killing for the wrong reasons, had nothing against telling a tale to help their situation. "One of the groups tried to do things with me...So we left, Chris doesn't like to talk about it because he barely stopped it, but then if I felt uncomfortable about a group we would talk about it and leave." She didn't look Jack in the eye, she just closed up slightly with her body as she spoke while gazing thoughtfully at the fire. Tehnically it wasn't a complete lie though...The first group they'd joined this guy that was only a year older kept trying to flirt with her, but she kept rejecting him, he tried to take it too far one night so she stabbed his cheek with her knife which had cut his tounge off, and while he wsa choking on his own tongue Chris had found Claire and pulled her away and they stole a car to get away.

Chris looked at his sister. She'd spun the tale, and now it would only look bad if he denied it, so he looked at Jack for a second and gave him a pained smile. So yeah...And we've been on our own for the most part since. I found that motorcycle in a garage in Oregon actually. It's a really nice bike, and hasn't let us down yet. The only problem is we don't have any siphoning equipment so we had to refuel whenever we found any in a vehicle. Or our last stop in Ashford..." He paused for a moment realizing he was bringing it up again. "Well we found an easier source there..." While he had finished the man off, he and his sister both knew that it was Claire who had truly killed the man. If he could take the blame he would...but right now he just had to support his sister and pray for her as much as he could.

Claire had stayed silent, still not saying a word. She sat close to her brother just watching the man cautiously. Chris on the other hand was...slightly more relaxed. At the mention of Ashford though, Claire just looked at the fire. She knew that she hadn't done the wrong thing...so why did she feel so bad? Was it the possibility that that man could have been doing that for family. She would do anything in a heart beat to help Chris. And if that was the case what happened to that mans family? Would they just sit around and wait? Or finally realize he wasn't coming back? Claire shook her head a little as the man got up and watched him go towards the table with his guns on it. Her body tensed slightly a hand moving down slowly to one of her knives as she held her breath. When the man holstered the weapon though she relaxed and exhaled silently. Was she really on edge that badly? The true question though...Would this man stay with them and help them? It would be nice to have a new face around. Someone to help them, someone who seemed to handle himself well, but that would mean she would have to trust him...Chris and her had stolen from other groups so why should this man trust them though? Her mind just started to race rapidly as she began freaking out in her head then suddenly Chris spoke up.

"So Mr. Marino." Chris had always been formal. Even though there probably was no need for it in this world anymore, he still tried to be polite and despite everything, keep his morals. "How long have you been out here by yourself? I mean...Just surviving on your own can't be easy. I know I wouldn't have made it his far without Claire, of course we're still young...Are you ex-military?" Chris wanted to learn about this man. Who he was, what motivated him. And hopefully whether or not he was just a predator waiting to strike when it was easiest, instead of when he was at risk as well...

The Walking Dead - Northwards

Claire let out a sigh of relief quietly when Chris wasn't shot. That had been her main concern. Then the man appeared and Claire just looked at the man in the doorway. Mid thirties perhaps? Taller than her by about 8 inches, which slightly bothered her, but it wasn't abnormal. The knife was still in her hand but she slowly opened her back pack and pulled out her leg strap holsters for her knives and slid her knife back into it. The whole time though she never took her eyes off the man. He seemed genuine, but still. She couldn't be sure...not anymore. The man from Ashford...She didn't even get his name. If you're going to kill someone then you should have the decency to learn their name...She thought it was proper since that person would probably help you from what you scavenge off of them, but you couldn't learn everyone's name...This was the only one she really wished that she knew though.

Claire started to put her leg holsters back on while Chris put a hand behind him and opened up his small back pouch and pulled out one of his zippo lighters and held it out to the man. "My name is Chris, and that's my sister Claire...We ran into some trouble in Ashford yesterday...She um...Well we didn't stay very long and it left it's mark on her, so she's a little on edge right now." Chris relaxed his hand on his gun but left it in the holster. This man was going out on a limb disarming like that, and it did help, but Chris was just too cautious. For him it wasn't a matter of what if this man attacked them, it was more of what if someone else attacked them while they were getting to know each other? Or the biters. It was just too much of a risk.

Nearest one is Ashford, approx. population 300

Which you could also go there, and possibly find the dead body left by Claire and Chris!

The Walking Dead - Northwards

Lol. Well the groups are starting to come together, so it should be interesting over the next few days, though my characters are at the check in cabin already, with Jack the democrat guy. Clover, and um...Carl? Blanking right now...and the dude with the crowbar aren't near the camp yet, so that could also be an option not in the camp!
