The Animus

[x]

"No, no, no no no no..." Gavin burst onto the scene in the town just in time to see that everything around had already been to hell and back....Too late. "What...what happened here?" Deep in the back of his mind, a spark of the truth started to burn....but for now denial was what filled that void. The death. The death scattered around with utter randomosity. The blood that pooled and the few remaining refugees scurrying for their lives. It wasn't possible. The young monkey stepped onward into town, withheld in the hopes he'd find someone to bring his mind back to reality. Or something.

A civilian moaned at Kitt's feet, his chest torn open... Pulling back the bolt on his Kalashnikov he aimed between the man's eyes and fired a single shot.... turning he spat on the ground, looking across the gruesome scene... shouldering his weapon he walked back towards Shinzuu and the others, wiping blood from the head of his ice-pick...
"Glad to see your still alive comrade..."
With that he clipped the ice pick back to his pack, and took out his AK again, ready to move on...

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Shinzuu merely scoffed, "Tch! I've been in far worse than this. Though I did have more people then." He surveyed the mess as he walked on. A majority were severely wounded or dead. It seems I've failed twice in one week. This is not looking good for us. Rocher came running back and saluting. "Sir! We've confirmed our numbers! As of 5 minutes ago, we have confirmed 341 civilians killed as well as 13 of our men! 14 more are severely injured! Our numbers are now down to 82, sir!" Shinzuu growled and looked Rocher in the eyes. "Gather up all the severely injured and get all the medics and anyone who has the little bit of medical knowledge into the hotel, and tend to their wounds. Send our fastest scouts to retrieve medical equipment and supplies from the hospital across town. Double time! Move!" Rocher saluted, "Sir!" He quickly ran out, relaying Shinzuu's orders and taking a team with him to the hospital on the other side of town.

Veronica nodded as she took her sai and handed Shinzuu his katana. Putting her sai back in its place, she looked around at the gruesome scene. She wasn't that surprised to hear that there were only 82 of them left. She knew that many of the people in the group would not be able to defend themselves properly. She looked down at her feet and pulled out a rag. Going down on her left knee, she used the rag to wipe blood off of her right boot. She then stood back up and used the rag to clean off her sai before putting it away, taking hold of her P-90, prepared to move on to the hotel.

[White Wolf Guardian]

*White rather irritated being ignored again by the people as again they didn't say anything further and kept following along to the hotel* "Fine by me, when it comes down to a moment of importance it I'm not gonna be caring about you guys either." *He grinned to himself and kept himself distanced from the others as he followed behind* "Rather used to this my whole life anyways, just because of my size these stupid people have never worked well with me and my crabbiness, not sure if the crabbiness was a result of the isolation and pent-up bitterness over the years."

[KittKat chunky~]

Kitt looked over at the wolf who was staying just behind the group, walking alongside him he gave a mock salute, he slung his AK over one shoulder...
"You fight with the strength of many men, comrade..."
He pulled a hip flask from his combat pack, his ice pick and various ammunition clips clinking... taking a swig of the fiery Slivovica he offered the flask to the wolf...
"You want drink comrade? is good stuff..."

[White Wolf Guardian]

*White was tempted to yell at him before he even started talking by looking at him, but upon seeing the flask and friendly gesture he nodded to the Russian soldier and took the flask lightly, taking a sip and putting it back down* "Thanks for the drink." *The wolgon handed the feline his drink back* "Are you from around here, you look like you just got off the boat Mr.. uhh?" *White was at a loss of words since he was not really used to continuing another person's conversation and he didn't even know who he was talking to as of yet*

[Shinzuu Katame: Her Tolfy]

Shinzuu stood before the crowd as the emergency teams left. "Alright, everyone! Listen up! Now. All of you are still alive because you either fought well, had good hearing or just plain dumb luck. That doesn't matter. What matters now is that you just got a taste of what's to come as we continue on. We are now going to head out to the Hilton as planned. However! You will follow STRICT guidelines from now on and you will not go anywhere without escort. Let's move out!"

[Vee Katame: His Wolfy]

Veronica just shook her head at the big guy's crabbiness as she started to walk, glad that Kitt had approached him and started a conversation. "Come on, let's go." She said as she grabbed ahold of a couple of civilians' arms who were still frozen in fear, lifting them up onto their feet and making them move forward. Freezing up like that wasn't going to help them out during fights. She didn't expect they'd last long in the next one.

[KittKat chunky~]

Kitt took the flask back, taking another swig before finally stowing it back in his combat pack..
"My Names Kitt, Kitt Vladimir.... and I flew to Alaska actually, I was posted in Siberia so there where no harbours near...I suppose i could say i'm lucky to be here at all... or unlucky to be here.. whichever way you see it..."
Kitt paused for a moment, shoving a civilian unkindly in the small of the back, urging him to move forwards...
"And what name do you go by, comrade?"
Kitt waited for the wolgon's response as he continued to shove and herd civilians back into a group using the butt of his Kalashnikov wherever a civie proved too frightened to move under their own will.....

[White Wolf Guardian]

"Alright, my name's White. Last name and such not that important really, especially these days. I hope the name Kitt goes well with you since the last name requires more effort than I'm willing to give to utter." *He chuckled as Kitt smacked civilians to make them move faster* "I can see you're not exactly a fan of these civilians either, I've always wanted to see Russia but now I guess I'll never get that chance. As far as being a good move on someone's part, I wish I had a bomb shelter to live out this apocalypse. I mean if the world's military forces couldn't handle sludge ball creatures, what makes us think we have a better chance in a rag tag team of below Class 3 armed civilians? I say next to none, but I'll tag along till the end seeing as how Anchorage didn't give me a choice. How did Russia fair in this disaster?" *He tried not to let out a cackle as he caused uneasiness in the civilians around him that overheard his conversation*

[KittKat chunky~]

"You are right... White... I in fact hate damned civies, useless... pointless... stupid... civies!"
Between each shout he shoved the poor civilian in front of him harder and harder until finally the man broke into a half run just to get out of the felines way... Kitt growled under his breath, smirking...
"And Russia is fairing well enough, it is cold in much of the country... but the motherland, she is breaking up... the people are being abandoned by the government, the army has abandoned the government, and the people abandon everything.... when i see the chance, i get out of there, Siberia is not best of places to be posted all year through.... "
Kitt grabbed a civilian, a young fox, by the arm and shoved her forwards...
"Move! You want to live, then keep with the group!"

[x]

Gavin sauntered forward, faster and faster, past broken down buildings and refugees crying over the dead bodies of their friends. Almost feeling like he wanted to cry himself, he pressed on, getting deeper into the town, deeper into the heart of whatever had occured in his abscence. Soon he came across a ragtag group of people...people who could only be classified as: 'people who knew what they were doing.' Just what he was looking for! The monkey ran up to one of them, a wildcat with a gun and a soldier's attitude, and gingerly put a hand on his shoulder...."Sir! Sir, I was in the far back of the group this whole time...could you tell me what in the world happened here?"

[Dtannings]

Tori helped set the wound for one of the civilians. Ever sence morning she'd been in a haze, and nothing was really registering until now. She'd managed to stay out of the way in her fight, mostly due to falling over a rock and into a ditch. She patted the civilian on the back as she made her way to help with any other casualties.

((sorry, best i could think of due to my absence. Need some sort of explination why she didnt do anything))

[KittKat chunky~]

Kitt turned to look at the monkey, raising an eyebrow in bewilderment...
"What happened?... I can tell you what frackin' happened... half the civies are dead, you wanna go like the rest of 'em?.. cos if not, get with the group, and stay with the group..."
With that he picked up a civilian by the scruff of the neck, all the time keeping his eyes out for any more creatures or minions.... A female fox sat, crying over the dead body of her mate, Kitt crouched down beside her and helped her too her feet carefully... he sighed, taking her paw and leading her back to the group... they had all lost people and friends today...
