Zombie Apocalypse (roleplay)

"Yeah, seriously. He should be back at the quote-unquote "Safehouse" nearby."
Kor held out his hand.
"Now, would you kindly give me back my gun? I don't feel like having my brain eaten because you didn't give it back."

i place her body in the grave, then bury her as i take a plank of wood i found and stick it in the dirt as a tombstone.

*chuckle a bit more* If you say so. *pick up holsters (Ooc: Holsters god damn it!) and equip them along with hat, jacket and a small bag with everything that might be needed* Very well. Let's go get him then. *check guns thinking a bit* Fine. You can have your gun back. But I hope you won't do something reckless and ruin our touchy little bonding moment here. *smirk handing him his gun* I would hate to shoot you now that I had a good laugh. *take guns and put them in holsters (Ooc: Yes...holsters ladies and gentlemen) and smile* Lead the way Kor.

I hold Skyler close as we pray over her.
"tell me about her."

OOC: ready for a blast to the past?

IC: "h-her name was Kira, a-and she was my twin...when all of this started, we were separated by the army as they took our mother and i away for experimenting...she was left on her own with our brother to find our father, but...." she held the dogtags closer to her chest. "s-seeing as these are here, our father is gone as well....." her sobs started back up again. "i-if only i had stayed with her..t-then none of this wouldve happened!"

I hold Skyler tightly and stroke her hair.
"hey now. If you were with her, you might have died, too."
I reach into a pouch at my side and pull out five seeds and give three to Skyler.
"my people had a tradition.
Whenever anyone died, we would plant seeds over their bodies.
Our belief was that the soul of the deceased watches over and tends the flowers on their grave, and we can speak to them through these flowers.
In this way, their soul is at peace, and they never truly leave us."
I look Skyler in the eyes.
"would you plant the first seed?"

i nod before digging a small hole over my sister's grave and planting the seed, then covering it up with the dirt

I kneel down and plant the second seed, and as Skyler and I alternate, I recite.
"one seed for each soul departed, that they might have peace.
One seed for each witness, that the memory of those who have left us might be remembered for eternity.
By these seeds, we vow to never forget."

As we finish planting the seeds, i take a moment to say my final goodbyes. " i love you sis.... Say hi to mom,dad, and aaron for me, okay?" i whisper to the grave before kissing my fingers and pressing it against the plank of wood acting as a tombstone

"Really now, do I look like the guy who'd do that?"
Said Kor, chuckling a bit to himself as he took his gun back. Unfortunately, he had no holster for it.
"If I remember right,he should be in the building right across the street. Should be fine. We'll even hold hands!"
Mind you, that last part wasn't serious in the slightest.

"Or... Not. But no, seriously, right across the street."
He then headed towards the stairs, and after descending, made for the front door..

As Skyler says her farewells, a voice seems to come from the seeds.
The words seen to be comforting, and I heard it call skyler "sister".
"Skyler? What is the voice saying?"

*laugh lightly following Kor* No one looks like a guy who would do that...until he doest it. A girl can never be too careful. How do you think I managed to handle it all alone for so long? *smirk teasingly, raising eyebrow* And no, you can't hold my hand but I will gladly allow you to give me a piggy back ride if I get tired, soldier. *chuckle and follow further to the exit* Let us just end this as quickly as possible, shall we?

I hear the voice as well, immediatly looking towards the seeds we planted with wide eyes. " s-sister....she said sister...."

" she said that i should live on...live on for our family...and that she'll always be watching me...."

"Shooting the everlasting hell out of anybody that looked at you funny?"
Kor said.

"And does that work the other way 'round? Because walking that twenty feet or so gets awfully tiring, I don't think I'd make it!"
Upon exiting through the door, the hooded man began panting in a heavily exaggerated manner as he walked at an agonizingly slow pace.
"Energy... Fading..."

He noticed that was smiling more than he'd ever had in months.
It was strange, really, he didn't feel all that different around the others, so why's he suddenly turned into a light-hearted joker now?

No, he had to be just imagining it... Still, it was a nice feeling, to actually joke around for once. People were usually too serious and/or moody for that.

Well in our military terms every additional twenty feet of movement on a battle field is twenty feet too many if not necessary. You would be surprised. *laugh amused when Kor exaggerated* Screw you. It was the fact. But fine, be like that "hoody". *chuckle and walk beside him examining the surrounding area* Quiet for now. But that just might be calm before the storm. Keep your guard up joker. *smile at him*

I hold Skyler.
"We can come back and talk to her whenever we want, so don't feel bad, okay?"

I stiffen a little when i was held, but relax. "o-okay...you promise?" i asked, looking up at him

I smile down at Skyler.
"Of course I promise."

"t-thank you...." i wrap my arms around ori's waist and hug him. "t-thank you, for everything.."
