John Teller - MEC - Farren/Buck/Victoria/Robert
The 'leader' took in all the information, making sure to processing everything that was important. The fact that Farren had biology background meant that she may have some knowledge in the medical field, but that was just an assumption John took notice to. What took him by surprise was Buck's job history. He thought he was just some kind of farmer or a lumberjack, but wrestler? He would of never imagined. So John wasn't sure if he should believe that or not. If he was indeed a wrestler, he may show more of a threat than expected - or an asset. But anyway, John proceeded by standing up and moving to get a food tray for the giant. He moved behind the buffet counters and headed to the back fridges to pick one up. After returning, he set the tray in front of Buck and gave a simple nod, obviously still wary about speaking to him more than he had to.
"I hope y'all got a good night's rest yesterday because today we have work to do. You are no longer guest here, you are members of this group" John started, looking into the eyes of all three of them, though one obviously didn't know what was going on - Dean. "Let us talk about this run you and Tori will be going on today" John continued, pulling out a little map he had tucked in his back pocket. He unfolded it and placed it on the center of the table, displaying it for everyone. It was already marked with precision, red X's were it was unsafe to go, black circles where they deemed safe to search. There were also a lot of question marks around the map, places they've never gone and weren't sure about. John took out a black sharpie from his pocket and put a dot on a coordinate on the map. "You guys will go here. It's just about ten to twenty minutes from here, depending on traffic" he joked, smiling a little to himself. Despite him always seeming serious, he was actually very gentle and sweet. "Anyway, there should be a subdivision there. Suburban style houses. It's close by, but it's marked with a question because we've never been there, so caution must be at an all time high no matter what. Basically, you stick together the whole time, no separating. You two don't go three feet from each other understood?" John said, awaiting a response. After getting one, he continued.
"Like Tori already knows, you look for necessities, not wants. Food, water, clothes, etc." John then started folding up the map again and handing it to Victoria. "In the meantime, I'll need Farren here to help me cover up the front windows with bed sheets. I want to start hiding ourselves a little better, pumping up our security a little more. Were fortunate to not have had an incident yet, but after last night, I'm uncertain how many walkers we have in the area. So let us get ready to start the day, we begin in ten minutes" John finished, pulling Victoria to the side outside the lunchroom while the others remained there for a bit.
"Listen. This is my address" he whispered, handing her a little piece of paper with his own home address. Where they were going is where John used to live, his house hopefully still there. "In the attic you'll find a couple of firearms and stacks of water, possibly some survival kits, I'm not sure, I don't remember exactly. But that's where I need you to go. And listen, whatever you do, DO NOT go into the main bedroom. You DO NOT let Buck in there, you don't go in there, nobody goes in there okay? Please" John finished as he hugged Tori. "You be careful. And if he tries anything, you do what you have to" he said seriously, unsure what would happen, but certain Tori would be okay, she always was.
