"What do you think we should do, Dave? Mitchell asks. He looks over at the motel, wondering if it might be better to leave the diner.

[dustakr]

"We need to find Boss Earl first ..if he is still inside the diner and needs our help"...Dave replies back to Mitchell. "we literally stuck here until we find any fast ride."

OOC,does [b]Dave [/b] knows of any vehicle they can use to get away from the diner.

[aine]

"Sounds like that man is coming out of the diner any minute- after moving the furniture around or something. He's not a dead guy, thank goodness, but..."
Samantha keeps her shotgun aimed at the diner exit and moves back hoping to find a car or something to hide behind.

[Leonulf]

Jenny seeing the tension rise here starts to move back away from Samantha and towards the car she arrived in to hide behind if neccessary.

[Leonulf]

Jimmy sees Buddy raising his ears "Not sure Buddy likes what he's hearing". He keeps the rifle raised.

[Starspawn338]

"Hey! What's going on in there?" Mitchell calls into the diner. "Is everybody okay?"

[aine]

Samantha walks round to the far side of Jenny's car, swaps her shotgun for the rifle and watches the diner. To Jenny she says quietly,
"Tell me more about your flying creatures, Jenny.

[Mr. Handy]

9:53 AM
Outside the motel-
Gary drove over to the motel parking lot and stopped in front of the front door, which was closed. He called out and awaited a response.

In the parking lot-
Samantha and Jenny returned to the front of the diner where Jenny had left Michael's car, which made suitable cover.

The only vehicles Dave knew of that were running were the car Jenny had arrived in and the skinheads' truck that Gary had taken. The other cars in front of the diner had been damaged in the blast, and all of them had at least shredded tires, not to mention blown-out windows and other damage. There were a few vehicles outside the garage, around the corner, that had not been affected by the explosion, but they were there because they were damaged and not running. There were other vehicles in the motel parking lot that presumably still ran, but they would need either to get the keys or hotwire them.

Buddy and Samantha,[b]Hammond[/b] could be heard laughing "heh heh heh" before running out the back door of the diner. He seemed to be heading for the garage.

[dustakr]

Dave talks with concern.. "guys we need to do something, it's not safe here to stand outside on the ground for long..."

[Starspawn338]

"Well, I'm not going to stay on the roof and the diner's windows are all blasted out so that don't look too safe either." Mitchell says. "I'm going to head over to the motel."

Mitchell will take off at a jog to the motel.

[Starspawn338]

Not getting a reply to his call, Gary is going to hop out and go to the front door.
"Anybody in here?" He says as he knocks loudly on the door.

[aine]

"That crazy guy isn't coming out here; I think he's heading out the back way instead." Samantha says in a voice loud enough for those around her to hear. "Let's get over to the motel while we can." She says to Jenny. "The guys are right; it's not safe out here." She whistles to the dogs, "Come on, boys, good dogs!" Hoping they will follow her and she follows Mitchell to the motel, keeping a good look round.

[Leonulf]

Jenny starts to follow Samantha "I am thinking safety in numbers right now, I will stick close to you... those creatures... I am not sure what more I can say, they were so alien to me, I have never seen anything like them. The important thing is - if you see them run, I don't want to get close to them ever again."

[Leonulf]

Jimmy points to Samantha "Boys, you follow the girls - help keep them safe.". After speaking to the dogs he raises his voice. "I will keep the door covered.".

[dustakr]

Dave shouts back at Samantha.."did you saw any weapon on a crazy guy..." He not sure if his words were heard...but Dave stays put, he tightly holds a wrench and cautiously starts moving toward the diner door.

[aine]

Samantha looks back over her shoulder at Dave as she walks towards the motel. "No, at least, I didn't hear any weapons. Sounded more like he was moving the furniture around before he left out of the back."

To Jenny she says, "Were they like insects or more like bats, mammals, would you say? The more we know, the more we can prepare against them. They attacked the guy, Michael who went down quickly so the poison must be very strong but he killed one so we need to get them before they get close. And they were around the meteorite? Maybe the heat attracted them to it."

Samantha has expert knowledge of lots of animals but nothing like this, maybe she needs to extrapolate between species.

[Starspawn338]

Getting no response, Gary will try to door to see if it is locked.

[Mr. Handy]

9:54 AM
Outside the motel-
Gary rattled the knob, but he found that the door was locked.

OOC,[b]Gary[/b], please roll Listen. The base skill is 25%.

In the parking lot-
Dave walked through the shattered front door of the diner and into the deserted and blasted main area, taking care not to step on broken glass, while Jimmy stood outside and covered him.

The dogs loyally trotted off after Mitchell, Jenny and Samantha toward the motel. Kimberly joined them.

Between the motel and the T-Bone-
Mitchell, Jenny, Samantha, Kimberly, and the dogs cleared about half the distance to the motel, reaching the dirt road.

[Leonulf]

Jenny shrugs "Smaller than a bat but larger than an insect - but then they were kind of insect like. Maybe a hummingbird sized mosquito - its so hard to describe them - they had such an unfamiliar look to me. Well I got freaked out a bit looking at them close so I could be wrong but I dont think they were attracted to the meteorite - but were the meteorite, like a rocky egg sack maybe... Fire does seems to burn them but we didn't do a good job of that, unless we had flamethrowers we are out of luck - so you know we are out of luck..." Jenny starts looking back off into the distance for a moment.

[Starspawn338]

Gary listens at the door.
