IC-Breakdown(various)

The dead have begun to rise, but they are not the only problem. A small group of survivors at a truck stop in southwestern Nebraska must contend not only with zombies, but with internal division, a nearby group of heavily-armed skinhead survivalists, and even more horrifying dangers. Can they overcome their differences and survive, or will they join the ranks of the living dead?

In the parking lot-
Jimmy picked up both long guns and found that they were in excellent condition. They had not been damaged by the blast or by being dropped, and there didn't even seem to be any blood on them. The rifle was an M-16 with an M203 grenade launcher attached underneath the barrel. This was empty, but the magazine was mostly full, with 23 bullets loaded. Another bullet was in the chamber. However, the grenade launcher was empty. The shotgun was a pump action 12-gauge weapon. It had three shells loaded out of a maximum of five. Both weapons had straps that allowed them to be carried over the shoulder. There was no ammunition visible anywhere, just a bunch of empty shell casings.

"I'm going to go down too. Since nothing is coming out, I think I'm going to try to make it over to the motel." Mitchell says to the others. He will go down the ladder to join Jimmy at the front of the diner.
Samantha,Did you let me use the shotgun?

Samantha has her eye on the sight the whole time, focused. When she sees Jimmy pick up the guns she breathes out and looks up at Mitchell,
"You sure you can remember how to hold it and load it?" She unlimbers the shotgun and gives him four rounds.
"Can you bring it back soon as you find something else? It's my father's gun and I'm sentimental." She gives him a hard look and then she goes back to scanning the area below.

9:42 AM
In the parking lot-
Max and Buddy barked excitedly as Jimmy played with them.

On the roof of the diner-
Samantha, Gary, and Kimberly continued to watch from above while Mitchell and Dave crossed over to the garage roof.

On the roof of the garage-
The mechanics reached the top of the ladder. Mitchell, the shotgun slung over his shoulder on a strap, climbed down first while Dave held it steady.
Dave,[b]Dave[/b] saw nothing in any direction as of yet.
Outside the garage-
Mitchell reached the ground without incident.

Gary winces as the dogs bark. "You might want to keep them quiet," He calls down to Jimmy softly. "for your own safety."

Jimmy looks up to Gary "Im trying to keep them calm, and hopefully quiet - a lot has happened they will be freaked out. They will hear, see and smell anything before we do - for our own safety we need them around". He turns to the dogs "Just settle down for now, but speak up if you see something coming".

Samantha now looks round the wider environs as it seems fairly safe directly below.

"Maybe you guys should get some supplies back up here in case we need them later." She calls down softly.

In the parking lot-
The dogs settled down. Max actually nodded, an unusual gesture for a dog.

On the roof of the diner-
Samantha got a good look around as Dave started down the ladder.
Dave,[b]Dave[/b] caught sight of a small car coming down the dirt road from the north, about a mile away. It was moving fast.
Samantha,[b]Samantha[/b] caught sight of a small car coming down the dirt road from the north, about a mile away. It was moving fast. She recognized it as [b]Michael[/b]'s car, which she had seen earlier in the motel parking lot.
Outside the garage-
Dave got to the bottom of the ladder and rejoined Mitchell.

"Hey look, there's a car inbound; moving pretty quickly. It's Michael that tourist, I wonder what the hurry is. Better watch out guys, his engine's gonna be loud; it might attract attention if he pulls into the truck stop." Says Samantha

Mitchell will go around the garage to the parking lot as soon as Dave gets down.
"Hey Jimmy, can I have the shotgun?" He says to Jimmy as soon as he sees him.

"Maybe you guys should get some supplies back up here in case we need them later." She calls down softly.
"If those zombies aren't around, I say we should try to make it to the motel and hole up there." Gary says. "I'm not too keen on staying on the roof. While it might be safe right now, it's not as good as actual shelter."

Gary will head over to the ladder and make his way down.

Samantha looks over to the motel. She's not too keen on the idea and imagines herself shut in a small room with too many people, any people, with no where to run, waiting, waiting...

She walks over to where she can see the motel as best as she can. It has a walkway around the first floor rooms, that wouldn't be too bad. But the roof would be better; she's accustomed to spending days outside. She looks to see if she could get onto the roof. There must be some way up to repair that SAT dish. She returns to the ladder.
"Okay, Gary.. You guys get over to the motel, I'll cover you. Then you do the same for me. Kimberly do you want to go with them?"

Jimmy nods to Mitchell "Sure - you can have the shotgun, I have used one before but I prefer sneaking around to getting shot at". He passes the shotgun over when he gets close.
