Z-Day - 4:27 PM Central Time - Brooks High School, Omaha, Nebraska On the roof-
"Sorry, this is the only gun I've got on me," said Erica Spears to Megan Petrovich as she took aim at a wounded ghoul. "We lost most of our weapons and ammo at the airfield. I lent my Grease gun to Lucy and my Beretta to Stephanie. Dr. Hausmann's got Bob's Beretta, and Dr. Smith has a Ruger P-85 that belonged to State Police Sergeant Diane Ford. Neither Bob nor Sergeant Ford made it." She got a sad and distant look which then turned to anger. She fired again, striking her target in the head and finishing it off. Only one zombie from the original group remained. It was still clawing at the bottom of the fence and trying to claw through, and it was nearly done. The other zombies gathering all around the fence were making progress too, but they had arrived later and weren't quite as far along.
Elijah Smith walked over to Adam Donnelly and examined the device with curiosity. "Is this the EMP generator?" he asked. "Is something wrong with it?"
In the north stairwell, upper floor- Lucy Armstrong followed Becky Clarke through the door on the landing and into the hall.
In the north hall, upper floor- Lucy went with Becky into the special projects lab as Rachel Cohen emerged, and Julianne Landers made her way to the balcony. The hallway was otherwise clear in all directions. Rachel looked inside the science classroom across the hall, which was empty.
In the special projects lab-
"I've also run the simulations several times," said Dr. Hausmann. "You can see the resulting data on the memory stick. We have also done some investigation into the toxin that the bite spreads. We did not have any samples, but we know that one woman at least seemed to be immune: a federal agent named Kimberly. She was bitten defending the helicopter when it landed in Brownson to refuel, before it picked us up, but she did not show any symptoms. Perhaps she is still a carrier, but we don't know. We had no time to run tests or even get a sample of her blood, and all we can do is speculate about why she may be immune. She mentioned that she has sickle-cell trait. It protects against malaria, so maybe it protects against this too. Another possibility is that psychoactive drugs may provide resistance to the toxin. Kimberly had taken LSD during undercover drug investigations. There was a woman who was killed in by a swarm of those mosquitos who had been taking Valium. Those with her were killed by the poisonous stings, but they did not seem to affect her. Instead, the creatures ripped her apart. Still, we do not even know if that poison is the same one that is transmitted from the bites of the dead, only that it seems similar. What we need are samples to analyze."
Stephanie looked up when Becky and Lucy walked in. "Hey, Lucy, good to see you again," she said, still typing away. "What's going on out there?"
"I was hoping you'd know," said Lucy.
In the southeast hall, upper floor-
"Thanks, Diana," said LaTanya as the other girl helped her up. "Yes, I can walk, but I'd still better see the nurse." She picked up the 9mm pistol, which Kyle had dropped when he had been knocked out by the baseball. He lay still, a lump forming on his head. He did not move even when Diana took his shotgun. "We're okay! He's down for the count!" She limped back to the balcony.
On the balcony- Julianne crept onto the balcony, where she found Darnell standing stunned. LaTanya stumbled back from the southeast hall, her eyes overflowing with tears. Darnell slowly came to his senses.
OOC,[b]Darnell[/b], you may act freely again.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Ron Moore remained where he was, seemingly uncertain of what he should be doing.
In the north hall, ground floor- Miguel spun on his heel. "Right, the keys," he said. He hurried back to the lobby, leaving Keith and Jerry behind.
In the lobby- Miguel entered from the north hall and unlocked the security office's door for Vice Principal Sharon Kaplan. At about the same time, Tariq al-Tikriti and Lori Desmond arrived from the east hall. Amelia Delacroix was next, with Principal Lawrence Adler bringing up the rear. "We've got trouble in the cafeteria," said the principal, brandishing his bat. "At least one of those things broke open the kitchen's fire exit and got inside. We barricaded the door to the cafeteria, but it won't hold long." He cocked an ear. "Thought I heard something. What happened out here?"
Sharon felt her face pale as she listened to the new arrivals. She would have made some sort of remark in an attempt to comfort the students but she was too stunned.
"I think..." she said, too horrified to care about language, "shit just hit the fan, in all meanings of the phrase."
She took the door off Miquel's hands. She held it open, but continued to stare off into space. Her heart beat furiously in her chest and she could feel a cold sweat coming on. This day just kept getting worse, and worse, and worse, and worse.
"Would you all kindly get into the security office? she said, "for protection, obviously."

Vice Principal Sharon Kaplan
Sharon suddenly sound herself feeling rather embarrassed. She rubbed her foot against the floor and looked down, feeling like a schoolgirl again. She hated the feeling.
"Well.... you know, airvents... and..." she replied waving her hand in random directions, "Besides, where are we suppose to go upstairs. Either way we are trapped."
She pursed her lips and put her hand into her pocket, withdrawing a ring of keys. She had been meaning to save them as a bargaining chip, but she thought she ought to reveal them now. It seemed appropriate with matters spiraling out of control.
"My car is out front." she said, "In the parking lot. If we can just get there, we might be home free. The school is no longer a haven."

Darnell turned to LaTanya and said, "LaTanya i am so sorry. I did not mean to hurt you. I tried to hit Kyle but I screwed up. I understand if you never wish to talk to me again. If that is the case can I have my school ring back along with my Varsity Jacket? But know this. I will marry you and help you raise this child and he will not know any pain or suffering. I will be a good father to him."
Alvin said, "I can fight. I may not have many weapons but I can fight. I also can train others to fight. So where do you want me?"

-Was it just one? We could try to... no better that we retreat. We will return to the main group upsters. And we will try to barricade each door, to slow them. Seems that the fence being repair won't matter much. Now we must hurry.
Jerry starts to return to the main group.

Diana Forrester
Diana smiled weakly at the couple. Darnell really was sweet in his own way. The moment really had been beautiful.
"That was lovely Darnell," she said, "Truly it was. However we have some pressing matters to deal with now."
Her smile dropped and to her the air gained a foreboding quality to it. It would not be long before the screaming came and all their hope would be washed away. A defiled sanctuary would replace the school. Abandon hope all ye who enter here. Oh god, innocent blood would soon paint the walls. Her face became chalk white.
"We really really need to come up with a plan. If we don't we all are gonna die." she turned to Darnell, "Do you have any suggestions? We could go try to find someone. Someone else might have a plan. A helicopter's upstairs. Or, we could continue to the library. We could barricade it and escape out the windows and steal a car."

"So... library? The Labs? I think our best bet is on the second floor. I highly doubt the barricades in the cafeteria will hold much longer so we'll have to rely on the ones in the stairs. We'll be able to get a visual on things happening below before all hell breaks loose up here." she said, "We also need to decide whether Kyle is worth saving.

Darnell Jones,Your bat is indeed broken in the lobby below, so you'd have to get another one. Roy's bat is lying at your feet, but he wants it back.
Keith Stewart,Yes, you have them both on you.
On the roof-
"Damn straight we have a chance!" said Erica, aiming at the crawling zombie.
On the balcony- LaTanya put an arm around Darnell and leaned on him. "I know you didn't mean to hit me, Darnell," she said, "but your words were aimed at me, and they hurt worse than that bat did. I guess...I guess I just need some time to think, but that's the one thing we don't have. I guess everyone's going to know I'm pregnant now, but you really are the father. I only told Kyle it was his to get him to stop, or at least to make him drop his guard. Guess it worked, huh?" She looked back at Diana. "The library has no windows, and there's only one way out of there. What about the roof?"
In the lobby-
"If you can fight, I can use you right here with me," Principal Adler told Alvin. "We can't let these things run loose in the school. If we can stop any that have already gotten inside and set up new barricades, we can still hold the school if they can get the power back on. Blocking the cafeteria doors with something will buy us a little time. Anyhow, the road leading off school grounds is blocked off. The only way out of here by car would be to smash through the fence."

To Elijah:
"Something wrong with it? I'm not sure, kid. I put it together in a bit of a hurry, so now I'm checking to make sure I didn't screw anything up. Lives depend on this hunk of junk working."
He thinks for a moment...
"Hey, want to give me a hand? There's some heavy physics at work here, but it's not every day you get to play with this kind of top-secret weaponry, I bet."
Adam turns his attention back to the device, then shoots a quick glance back at Elijah.
"And look...when I say 'play,' I mean it in the most delicate, don't-screw-it-up-and-set-it-off kind of way..."

Chester, in the special projects lab:
After hearing Dr. Hausmann's story:
"Then maybe we should all find and take some LSD. Maybe a little psychadelic therapy is what we need..."
He forces a smile.
"More seriously, though...a more pressing matter that we should analyse is what the hell we're going to do next, provided we all live to see that signal interrupted and the EMP set off. For starters, we should probably round up all the survivors in the building if we're considering leaving. I'm not sure how many people are holed up in the school."

Tariq
Tariq is slightly confused, especially by the absence of headshotted enemies. He walks up to Kaplan, and peers into the security office to see if there are any guns in there, planning to take at least one if he sees any.
He then turns to Kaplan,
"Ms. Kaplan, do you really think that your car can get out? I have equipment and weapons - automatic weapons, not baseball bats - at my house, which isn't far. We could stop there, arm ourselves, and then flee town. If we made it to the airport, I have a little experience with helicopters, and could probably get us out if the weather was good. Of course, it might be less risky to go to the roof."
he then speaks slightly louder, still nominally adressing Ms. Kaplan, but hoping anyone will answer his questions,
"and what is this about headshots and teenage romance? If anyone has a gun, I can probably use it best when the enemy in the cafeteria gets here."

"The gunshots weren't what we thought. It was students shooting at each other! The instigator is unconscious and disarmed. But something has apparently found its way into the kitchen. I counted at least three guns out there, so they may be able to handle it."
She sets the extinguisher on the floor next to the door,
"I'm going back."

OOC,A few things: [b]LaTanya[/b] wasn't ignoring [b]Julianne[/b], I just forgot that she had asked the question when I made the minor update. I was going to have her answer in this major update anyway, but it had been delayed. Also, [b]Julianne[/b] cannot get all the way back to the lab in the turn that just ended (though she can still shout so that those inside hear her). She's in the north hall in the upper floor right now, and this turn she can make it back into the lab.
[b]Jerry[/b] is in the north stairwell on the ground floor, and this turn he can make it up to the upper floor landing. You can check your characters' locations in the Locations thread, and you can use the maps in the Maps thread to plan your route.
By the way, if you have more than one character in the same thread, you do not need to make separate posts for each of them. You can post for multiple characters in the same post. If they're in different areas, you can just use headings indicating the location like I do.
On the roof-
"Unfortunately, there was no time to cremate everyone who died today before they rose up," said Erica. "That's where most of the walking corpses came from, because of the alien mosquito-things in the meteors that came down last night. I'm sorry, but this is happening all over the world. Luckily I brought the people who can put a stop to all this here." She squeezed the trigger yet again and finished off the crawling zombie that had nearly made it through the bottom of the fence. "Yeah!"
Elijah carefully examined the EMP device. The young prodigy quickly assessed the EMP device and nodded to himself. "You've got the leads wired up the wrong way," he said. "We just need to reverse the polarity and everything will work fine. It'll take me about ten minutes. If it's okay for Michiko to help, we might get it done even faster."
On the balcony- LaTanya went with Darnell back down the hall to the north. "Yes, let's get up on the roof," she said. "If we have to get off the roof in a hurry, there are always the fire escapes. Come on, Diana."
In the north hall, upper floor- Darnell and LaTanya followed Julianne down the hall. Ahead of them they saw Rachel Cohen already in the hall and Becky emerging from the lab. "We're all okay!" shouted LaTanya. "Kyle Rogers tried to shoot Roy McCrumb with a shotgun, but Roy jumped off the balcony and wasn't hurt. Then someone down in the lobby shot back at Kyle, and Roy started throwing things at him. He managed to knock Kyle out. My leg got hurt by accident during the fight, but I'll be fine."
In the special projects lab- Dr. Smith moved for the exit when he heard what had happened, and Michelle went with him. "I'm Michelle Marquez, the school nurse," she told him.
"Glad to have your help," he said. "I'm Dr. Bernard Smith. Dr. Hausmann, you should stay here in the lab and continue your work. I think the two of us can handle this."
Kelly Cameron lowered her head and turned away, swallowing.
"Well, I wouldn't go so far as to drop acid," said Stephanie to Chester Johnson with a grin as she typed. "Valium might be just as effective with fewer side effects, but even that can impair you. We don't even know if it does make you immune anyway, but if it does maybe we could isolate whatever it is that confers immunity from the more dangerous components of the drug."
In the lobby-
The aluminum bat landed near Roy with a clang.
Miguel left the keys in the lock of the open door to the security office. Inside the room, a cabinet was visible where a couple of nightsticks were kept locked up, but no guns were kept there. The keys that Miguel had left would unlock the cabinet. There were also keys on the ring for the two detention cells that were around the corner of the L-shaped security office. Neither one was currently occupied. "Kyle had a shotgun and a handgun," he said. "I'm sure someone can use them. I've got a gun too, but it's the only one I have." He took out his Glock 9mm. "Principal Adler, I'm with you."
"All right," said Adler. "First, let's block off the door to the cafeteria. That might get us a small reprieve." He grabbed the chair from behind the security desk and headed down the east hall. Miguel followed him.
In the north hall, ground floor- Keith and Jerry hurried down the hall and entered the stairwell.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Coach Ron Moore was still waiting on the landing when Jerry and Keith entered.

"Unless someone tells me where the pistol is, I'm heading for the roof also," says Tariq.
"It isn't a matter of giving up the building, its a matter of fighting where you have the greatest advantage. Having an extra fifty feet of hallway behind you won't help, but being able to shoot from a balcony will."

And I'd rather have 50 feet of hall behind me than get trapped up there with a bunch of pussies. Your pea shooter isn't gonna save us. Those docs in the lab are. You wanna just throw that away? You wanna let all those people get eaten to save your own ass for a few hours? What happens when you run out of bullets?

"Impressive, kid. You can go ahead and swap those lines. The girl can help out if you want. Don't mess with anything else without showing me first. Got it?"

It's something I do all the time in the games I play in, and it helps provide a visual aid to remind you of which character is acting (it's especially helpful when you play multiple characters).

Tariq is confused again.
"Docs in the lab? Are going to save us? Who do you think probably caused this? But if we have assets in the building - I see what you mean. This is why I asked someone to tell me what was going on. And you shouldn't forget who's on your side, either - I can understand these are pretty bad circumstances for you, and anger can be a good way to deal with immediate combat, but you have to stay, what is the word, "cool" at other times. I've fought against overwhelming numbers of enemies before, and people who get upset easily die fiery deaths."

In the lab, Dr Singh hovers around the laptop, watching the events unfold. Finally, he shrugs and heads over to Dr Hausmann - "Dr Hausmann, is there anything I can do to expedite the research or EMP setup?"

Roy drops his eyes and examines the tip of his bat with his fingers, suddenly feeling like a little kid dressed up in 200 pounds plus of muscle.

OOC,[b]Lawrence Adler[/b], [b]Miguel Garcia[/b], and [b]Roy McCrumb[/b] are moving to the thread linked below and should stop reading the current thread at this point. Everyone else remains in the current thread.
In the lobby- Roy followed Miguel and Principal Adler down the east hall toward the cafeteria, while Amelia Delacroix and Murray followed the others going north. Only Vice Principal Kaplan remained, standing uncertainly outside the open door to the security office. Then there was a pistol shot from the east hall, but it was impossible to see what was happening there from where she currently stood.
In the north hall, ground floor- Murray hurried along behind Alvin, glad to be out of the lobby. He barked when the gunshot rang out.
"Hurry, keep moving!" said Amelia, running alongside Tariq and Lori. "We have to get upstairs!"
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Jerry Law and Keith Stewart ran past Ron Moore on their way upstairs.
On the balcony- Diana stood on the balcony, cradling the shotgun in her hands. Julianne went to the southeast part of the balcony and saw Kyle sprawled out in the hall a few dozen feet beyond, still unconscious. He had no weapons visible, only the backpack on his back. The baseball that had knocked him out had rolled a short distance past him. Becky went around to the southwest part of the balcony and looked over the rail. She caught a glimpse of Principal Adler, Miguel, and Roy heading down the east hall on the floor below before they passed beyond where the ceiling blocked her view. A second later, the pistol shot echoed from the east hall downstairs.
In the north hall, upper floor-
"I'll be okay," said LaTanya to Darnell. "Thanks for helping."
"Thank you, Darnell," said Michelle Marquez, "but we can take care of her leg now. Let's all go into the lab." She took LaTanya's arm and helped her along.
"Hi, I'm Dr. Bernard Smith," said the elderly black man with her. "I just arrived in the helicopter."
"Nice to meet you," said LaTanya, letting him and the nurse guide her into the lab.
In the special projects lab-
"If you could collect samples, that might help," said Dr. Hausmann. "Best of all would be one of the dead bodies. I haven't had a chance to do an autopsy of one yet. Don't take any chances trying to get one, but if the others have killed any..." She stopped speaking when the nurse and doctor returned with LaTanya.
Liz grabbed a few chairs and lined them up in a row. "Here, you can lie down on these," she said. "If you two need help, I am a medical doctor."
"I think Adam Donnelly is looking after the EMP device," said Dr. Saunders, "but if he needs help I can assist him. I didn't know that your expertise extended to physics as well, Dr. Singh."
On the roof- Megan looked around the school grounds. Though the cluster of ghouls at the northwest corner had been destroyed, there were now dozens more scattered around the fence trying to claw their way in - and some of them were dangerously close to doing so. Erica saw them too and took a shot at one that was most of the way through the fence, only to miss.
"Got it," said Elijah as he continued to work. "Thanks, Mr. Donnelly!" With Michiko's help, it was going a lot faster.
OOC,It will take four more minutes to finish fixing the EMP generator.

"By all means, Roy, get angry if you still want to fight at whoever is about to come down this hall. Be more enraged than you've ever been. But be angry at him. He is the enemy. I'll see if I can find one of Kyle's guns upstairs and come help. I don't know about shotguns - they weren't too popular back in Iraq," Tariq calls, then heads up the steps.

In the lobby- Alvin rushed in from the north hall with Murray hot on his heels. Vice Principal Sharon Kaplan still stood outside the open door to the security office, seemingly paralyzed with shock. Two more gunshots rang out from the east hall, and then they heard Miguel cry "Oh, crap!" Murray sniffed the air and whimpered in distress. He closed his teeth on Alvin's pants leg and tried to pull him back toward the north hall.
OOC,[b]Alvin[/b], you can continue on without rolling anything to get loose if you want. [b]Murray[/b] can't really hold onto you this way.
By the way, everyone in this thread except those on the roof heard the gunshots automatically. If you're on the roof, you can make a Listen roll to see if you hear them.
In the north hall, ground floor- Amelia kept running for the stairs with Tariq and Lori when Alvin went the other way. They heard the gunshots too as they entered the stairwell.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Jerry and Keith reached the ground floor landing as the group from the cafeteria entered from the hall. Ron Moore finally seemed to make up his mind and went through the door into the hallway.
On the balcony- Diana released the shotgun, backing away from the big bus driver with fear all over her face. Becky inspected it and saw that it still had three shells remaining.
In the southeast hall, upper floor-
The only weapon Julianne could find in plain sight was the baseball Roy had used to knock Kyle out. However, when she knelt down and unzipped Kyle's backpack, she found eight pipe bombs inside, along with two boxes of shotgun shells, one of which was open, six .40 magazines, and a large fighting knife.
In the special projects lab-
OOC,[b]Rachel[/b] was in the hall before. Did she go back into the lab? [b]Darnell[/b] is also still standing out in the hall, as I didn't get a post for him.
"Nein, Rachel!" called Dr. Hausmann. "We need this equipment to send the signal once the power comes back on. If we have to we can temporarily move to the roof while Stephanie works on her laptop, but someone would have to come back here to transmit."
"She's right," said Dr. Saunders. "This equipment isn't exactly portable."
LaTanya handed Michelle the handgun she was carrying. "Kyle had this," she said. "Maybe you can use it."
"Thank you," said the nurse. "Let's have a look at your leg." She examined the injury. "Looks pretty bad, but at least it's not broken. It's not the sort of thing I'm used to."
"At least it's just my leg and not...something more important." LaTanya put a hand on her belly.
Dr. Hausmann came over. "I'm not doing much at the moment," she said.
"Go help her," said Stephanie, still typing rapidly. "I've got it covered."
Dr. Hausmann frowned when she saw the girl's leg. "Ja, this is a difficult one, but I can manage it." She rubbed ointment on the bruise and bandaged LaTanya's leg, repairing most of the damage.
On the roof-
OOC,Repair progress: 2/5
"They're almost through the fence!" shouted Erica with alarm. She fired again and scored a hit, wounding her target's head severely - but it continued crawling on the ground and clawing its way through the fence.
Elijah smiled at Michiko and Adam as the two students continued to work on the EMP generator. "We're doing great," he said. "It should be configured in just a few more minutes."

Keith says to Jerry, "Alvin is heading down the East Hall, where those shots came from."
OOC,Yep, Rachel has gone into the lab. It is easy to forget ZA is played out one moment at a time.
When Dr Hausmann said how vital the equipment in the lab was, Rachel's heart sank; she began to doubt the scientists would be finished in time before the zombies broke into the school.

She leans against the balcony wall and tries to see or hear what's happening downstairs. She sees the hot teacher coming back from a visit with the sack of potatoes formerly known as Kyle, and she tightens her grip on the shotgun. No way is she giving that up.

In the lobby- Murray went into the east hall along with Alvin. Though he was afraid, he could not let his friend face danger alone. Sharon Kaplan finally grabbed the keys and ducked into the security office.
OOC,[b]Alvin[/b] and [b]Murray[/b] are moving to the thread linked below. Please stop reading the current thread at this point unless you have another character in it, and do not read the posts in the new thread above the one in the link. Everyone else remains in the current thread.
In the security office- Sharon looked around quickly and soon found the locked cabinet where the nightsticks were stored. She hurried over and unlocked it. She heard another shot from the east hall, and then the fluorescent lights overhead came back on.
In the north hall- Ron Moore rushed into the lobby as Jerry and Keith entered the hall from the stairwell. They all heard the shot, and then the lights came back on.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Amelia, Tariq, and Lori ran upstairs.
In the north stairwell, upper floor-
As the group arrived from below, they also heard the shot and saw the lights come on again.
On the balcony- Diana took the bat and ran off down the north hall without a word. Becky took the boxes, which contained a total of 45 shotgun shells. The 12-gauge shotgun itself held three, though it could hold up to five. She and Julianne couldn't see down the east hall from up here, but they did see Alvin and Murray head into it and Vice Principal Kaplan enter the security office. They heard one more gunshot from the east hall, and then the power returned.
In the special projects lab-
"It's okay, Darnell," said LaTanya. "It's not as bad as it looks, and the doctors are really helping."
Everyone in the lab heard the pistol shot, and then the lights flickered back on. "We have power!" cheered Dr. Saunders. "Stephanie, are you ready to trasmit?"
"I need more time!" said Stephanie, typing feverishly.
"How much more? The fence is powered again, but we don't know how many of them got through."
"Ten minutes, maybe a little less. I'm almost done!"
On the roof- Erica took another shot, but this time she missed. The zombies continued forcing their way through the chainlink fence, and a few got inside, including the one she had shot in the head before, which crawled across the field west of the school building. She saw another pair stumble in at the north and northeast corners.
Then the zombies that were still clawing at the fence jerked around madly before collapsing. They did not move again. "The power's back on!" cheered Megan.
Elijah and Michiko continued to fix the EMP device.

In the security office- Sharon Kaplan snatched up the two nightsticks and then returned to the lobby.
In the lobby- Ron Moore ran into the east hall. As Sharon emerged from the security office, Keith and Jerry arrived. Then Miguel's voice came from Jerry's radio: "This is Miguel Garcia. We took down the zombie that broke in, but Roy McCrumb is seriously injured and needs a doctor in the east hall downstairs. We also need reinforcements here to guard and barricade the kitchen exit. Over."
OOC,[b]Ron Moore[/b] is moving to the thread linked below. Please stop reading the current thread at this point, and do not read the posts in the new thread before the one in the link. Everyone else remains in the current thread.
In the north stairwell, upper floor- Lori looked through the door and saw the people coming from the balcony. Tariq and Amelia were right behind her.
OOC,[b]Tariq[/b], I can't remember exactly where you were headed and you haven't posted since the last major update. Were you going to the roof? The special projects lab? If you were heading to either location, you can consider yourself already there.
In the north hall, upper floor- Becky Clarke and Julianne Landers headed north down the hallway from the balcony, Julianne gingerly carrying a backpack. Diana ran back into the special projects lab.
In the special projects lab- Dr. Hausmann walked back over to Stephanie. "You're doing an excellent job, Stephanie," she said. "Don't worry, I'm sure you will finish in time."
"Thanks, Brigetta," said Stephanie, smiling at her as she typed.
The other doctors finished working on LaTanya's leg. She carefully stood up and tested it out. "Wow, this is great!" she said. "It still hurts, but I can walk again without much difficulty."
Michelle nodded. "That's good to hear, but try not to over-exert yourself and keep off of it as much as possible. And put ice on it!"
Then everyone in the lab heard Miguel's message on the radio. "Guess our work is never done, huh?" said Dr. Smith.
Kelly's ears perked up when she heard the voice on the radio, and she smiled a little.
"Diana, are you okay?" asked Teresa when her friend returned to the lab. She went over and hugged her. "Were you there when Kyle started shooting?"
On the roof- Erica frowned as the two zombies to the north started trudging across the football field. Leaving the crawling zombie for now, she turned her attention to the one due north of the school building. She put a bullet in its skull, reducing it to a crawl but not slaying it. Elijah and Michiko continued to work while Adam looked on. They were almost done now.

OOC,[b]Sharon Kaplan[/b], [b]Jerry Law[/b], and [b]Keith Stewart[/b] are moving to the thread linked below. Please stop reading the current thread if you don't still have another character in it, and do not read the posts in the new thread before the one in the link. Everyone else remains in the current thread.
In the north stairwell, basement- Declan McLeod entered the stairwell in time to see the others heading up the stairs.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Donald, Emilio, Chuck, and Tiny arrived at the landing from below. The wheelbarrow was where Donald had left it, but he saw to his dismay that the chainsaw and axe were gone.
In the special projects lab-
"When you return, please bring the body back for autopsy!" called Dr. Hausmann as the others left. Dr. Smith, Michelle Marquez, and LaTanya followed Rachel to the stairs. Julianne entered the lab just after they left.
"Yeah, I was there," said Diana. "I'm fine, Teresa. Nobody got killed. I thought we were all going to die at the time."
In the north hall, upper floor- Dr. Smith, Michelle, and LaTanya entered the stairwell with Rachel, Becky, and Darnell. Amelia went with Tariq to the balcony.
On the balcony- Tariq and Amelia arrived. They would have to go around the corner to reach where Kyle had been left. Tariq could tell that the eight pipe bombs within the backpack were crude homemade explosive devices. They were nowhere near as powerful as C-4, but they could still cause significant damage. The bag also contained a long fighting knife and six .40 magazines, but there were no guns inside.
In the north stairwell, upper floor- Dr. Smith, Michelle, Becky, Darnell, LaTanya, and Rachel entered the stairwell.
On the roof- Erica fired at the zombie to the northeast, which was not yet hurt. She missed badly. Her target had mostly crossed the football field at this point, and the one she had just hit was about halfway across. The one to the west was crawling closer too.
"All set!" shouted Elijah as he closed up the panel on the EMP device to protect the circuitry inside. "Michiko and I have prepared it to work properly when the time comes."

Donald paused at the wheelbarrel, rubbing his head and looking around, "Now where do you suppose those things wandered off to?" When the others look at him questioningly, he mentions, "I had an axe and a chainsaw in here. Someone must have snatched them while we were busy. Well, I suppose we'll find out right quick if someone starts up that chainsaw."
He got behind the wheelbarrel and started pushing it in a direction to one end of the school to start the rounds checking for excessive energy consumption.

Tariq al-Tikriti,You will need to wait until the next post before you can do anything with [b]Kyle[/b]. From your examination of the pipe bombs, you can tell that, while they are made of common household materials, they are stable and well-constructed, and they will not go off accidentally. They are not quite as sophisticated as the IEDs that have been used in Iraq in recent years, but they were made by a very talented amateur.

Emilio catches a glimpse of Declan hurrying after the mechs. "Hold up Chuck! Declan is lagging..." He grips the baseball bat in a double grip and surveys the exits from the stairwell. He looks for any signs of movement on the areas where people may exit or enter the stairs...

In the north stairwell, ground floor- Chuck grumbled and waited with Emilio for Declan to catch up from below, holding Tiny back. The dog let out a similar grumble. Darnell, LaTanya, Dr. Smith, Michelle, Becky, and Rachel arrived from upstairs.
In the north hall, ground floor- Donald rolled through the hall, pushing the wheelbarrow. He could tell that the lights have been left on in the gym and the workshop, as well as the bathrooms, from the light visible underneath the doors.
In the north stairwell, upper floor- Julianne entered the stairwell in time to see the others descending.
In the special projects lab- Heather shivered at Julianne's words. "We, like, are gonna totally die, aren't we?"
"Not if I have anything to say about it," said Stephanie, still typing. "I only need a little more than five minutes to finish up. If we can hold out until then, we'll be all right."
On the balcony- Amelia followed Tariq and Lori around the corner.
In the southeast hall, upper floor- Tariq and the others arrived to find Kyle still lying unconscious where he had been left. The baseball that had formed the lump on his head was on the floor nearby.
On the roof-
"Great!" said Adam. "We can't use it yet, though. Steph isn't done doing her thing."
Now the zombie Erica was aiming at had entered the parking lot, and another had crawled most of the way across the football field. The zombie to the west wasn't far away from the school either. Her next shot was even wilder. "I'm going to have to zero this rifle again," she said to herself, starting to adjust the sights.

When Declan reaches the car mechs, Emilio heads upwards with Chuck and Tiny. Since they arrived to the generator via the gymnasium, Emilio checks the sports hall for activity from his location in the stairwell. "The idea is to get topside, right?

Tariq glances through Kyle's open locker and personal belongings, just in case there are any weapons. Then, setting the homemade bombs down with himself between them and Kyle, he tries to gently rouse Kyle and see how severe the injury is.
"Can you hear me?" he says, gently touching Kyle's shoulder.
Then he turns to Lori.
"I'm going to try to help this kid. I don't know exactly what he was trying to do or why, but I'm not going to leave him here like everyone else did. You should probably consider your priorities right now. I might be able to use your help, but I can't think of anything in particular right now. If there is something else you would rather be doing, I'm fine handling this by myself. "

In the southeast hall, upper floor- Tariq could see that Kyle had only a minor bruise on his head from where the baseball had struck him. He had another bruise elsewhere on his body, but he had been hit hard in the chest and one of his ribs might have been cracked. There was no sign of any other weapons that he had not already found either on Kyle or in his locker.
OOC,[b]Tariq[/b], roll First Aid to revive [b]Kyle[/b]. If you succeed, roll 1d3 to see how many HP he recovers. [b]Lori[/b], you may also try if you wish. The base skill level is 30%.

Lori kneels down to Kyle 'who did this to you kyle!' she screams out not expecting anyone to answer 'maybe i can help him a bit' she says to Tariq
Upon encountering the crowd coming down from topside, Emilio asks during the squabble about getting to the kitchen and the talk about weapons in the security office. "Why are you guys heading for the kitchen? Isn´t it better to stay up top, now that the electric fence is working again? Do you have a radio by the way? I need to get confirmation that the fence really is operational. Or else, I´ve got to go down there again..." He looks back at the pit they just had left. He looks back to the team scurrying down the stairs, ..."maybe you want a helping hand over with the pots and pans? Can´t be too careful, there might be some infected people who got through the fence... Who´s checking in on Donald? He went to the gym..."
Being torn between his options, Emilio decides to follow Donald who helped out fixing the generator. "On second thought, I´ll better look after a mate, he´s wandering off to the gymnasium. Hey, Chuck, Declan, come along here! We can´t let Donnie stray away, can we? We fixed that gennie, lets get this place sealed properly, then get upstairs. Besides, we can pick up some gear from the supply room while in there." He waves at the self assured, strict, blonde who eyes the mechanics who crowd the stairs. They let the four women and the young athlete pass them towards the kitchen area. The lead being taken by his boss Becks. Taking charge as always...

Unless he realizes he wants to help Donald out and lose a round for his undecidedness... I´ll go with him actually heading up a bit to meet the women and Darnell. Then he raises his concern about Donald. Hopefully this will help Donnie out in the end.

However, the scientists need one, to complete their research; it is a task that must be done - for all our lives.

Emilio takes the proffered radio, "Thanks!", and uses it to contact the team on the roof. "This is Emilio of the generator crew. North stairwell, ground floor. We have got the juice going as you might have observed. I hear we have visitors in the kitchen... I´m about to secure the gym from intrusion. How´s the fence going? Can you get a visual from the roof?" He releases the send button and says to Rachel, "Sure will bring a sample if there´s been a breach. Take care in the kitchen! We´ll accompany you when we have finished the gym." He looks at his fellow mechanics for any sign of joining him to the gym. He hesitantly awaits a reply from the roof.
"Maybe we can get carry him to someone who can help," he says to Lori.
"You take the combat knife - which you should probably keep for yourself until he wakes up - and carry the explosives for me. I'll try to carry him. Unless you don't feel comfortable with the explosives, in which case I could carry them and we could both try to move Kyle together - but I'm pretty sure they won't go off by accident. I think there are scientists in the science workshop, and maybe some of them have medical skill."

In the gym- Donald entered the gym and found it deserted. Both fire exits were closed and undamaged. He went over to the light switches in the back to turn them off. He also heard three gunshots in the distance.
OOC,[b]Donald[/b], roll Spot Hidden to see what else you notice before you turn off the lights. Also roll Listen to see if you can tell where the gunshots were coming from.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Declan remained on the landing while Chuck pulled Tiny into the hall after Emilio, followed by the others.
OOC,[b]Declan[/b], you haven't posted, so I don't know if you want to go upstairs or into the hall after the others. You should roll Listen too.
In the north hall, ground floor- Dr. Smith, Michelle, Darnell, LaTanya, Rachel, Becky, Chuck, Emilio, and Tiny all heard the gunfire too as they entered the hall.
"If you're going to the gym, I'm going with you," said LaTanya to Darnell.
OOC,Everyone, roll Listen.
In the special projects lab- Dr. Saunders went over to the window and peered outside, then spoke into her radio: "This is Dr. Saunders, in the lab. I'm looking out the window, and I can see a few them hitting the fence and going down, so the juice is definitely on. Be careful, there's another one just reaching the building's northeast corner and one crawling out of the football field into the parking lot to the north. We're almost done up here. We just need..." She paused, and Stephanie raised one of her hands from the keyboard for a second, spreading her fingers wide. "five more minutes." After she finished, the gunshots rang out.
OOC,Everyone, roll Listen.
In the southeast hall, upper floor-
"Hold on," said Amelia before Tariq and Lori could pick up Kyle. "Let me have a try first. I know a few things." However, she was unable to help too. "All right, let's lug him back." She helped them carry Kyle. Then they heard the shots ring out.
OOC,Everyone roll Listen. There's no need to roll to carry [b]Kyle[/b], as the three of you together are more than strong enough.
On the roof- Julianne emerged onto the roof and saw other people there. Trooper Erica Spears stood at the northwest corner of the roof in her flight suit, adjusting the sights of her rifle. Megan Petrovich stood near her, watching. The helicopter was also on the roof, its rotors still. Near the stairs, Adam Donnelly stood with Michiko Watanabe and Elijah Smith beside a complicated-looking electronic device.
As Erica readied her rifle again, the standing zombie vanished around the northeast corner of the building, out of her view. "Damn, one of them got past me!" she said. One zombie was crawling across the parking lot just north of the school, and another crawler was getting close to the west side.
OOC,Everyone on the roof will have to roll Listen to even hear the gunshots from up here. Also, [b]Julianne[/b], roll Sanity for seeing the zombies. Sanity loss is 0/1d10. [b]Erica[/b] did not get to fire this round due to her critical miss last round.

On the roof-
"Yes, but we can't use it yet," said Adam. "This is an electromagnetic pulse generator. When activated, it will send out a pulse that will fry every electronic circuit from here to Omaha's suburbs. Stephanie also believes that it will disrupt the electrical impulse that is causing the dead to be reanimated, but until she finishes her work down in the lab we can't try it. It'll wreck every integrated circuit in the computers and electronic equipment down there, and she needs them to transmit a signal that will stop the dead from rising - not just here, but all over the world. It won't do anything about the ones that have already risen - that's what the EMP will hopefully accomplish - but once the signal goes out, the dead should stay dead. She had learned this morning that the electromagnetic pulses that were triggered by nuclear detonations in other countries did not shut them down, at least not for good. The first one was effective, but after that something compensated for it by continuously trying to reactivate them. Once she sends her signal, that should be stopped too."
OOC,[b]Julianne[/b], don't forget to roll Listen to see if you hear the gunshots.

Donald doesn't seem too preoccupied with the rest of the gym. He's been in there thousands of times before, and the amount of time he spends polishing the floor was enough to hurry him along with his task. As he started flipping the lights out, he heard gunshots and looked in the direction of the noise, even though it was obscured by several walls inbetween.

With the lights off, Donald turns back toward the entrance of the gymnasium and starts jogging toward it. If he sees Emilio, he mentions "There was gunfire in the kitchen. Someone shot something or someone. Are they in the building?"

In the gym- Emilio, Darnell, and LaTanya entered the gym, passing Donald as he left. The athletic supply closet was still open, and a couple of bats were left. The lights were off, but enough sunlight came in through the windows to see. The gym was otherwise deserted. More gunshots echoed in the distance.
OOC,If you grab anything from the closet, you won't also be able to leave the gym this round. [b]Emilio[/b]'s baseball bat is actually a very good weapon for him, and there was nothing better in the closet for someone with his skills. Everyone, roll Listen.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Declan remained where he was on the landing as the gunshots continued.
OOC,[b]Declan[/b], roll Listen.
In the north hall, ground floor- Bernard, Michelle, Rachel, Becky, Chuck, and Tiny headed into the lobby while the gunfire continued in the distance. Donald saw them ahead of him when he emerged from the gym.
OOC,[b]Donald[/b], roll Listen.
In the lobby-
"We're almost there," said Michelle, following Becky and Rachel. She and Dr. Smith had their guns ready. Chuck held his shotgun in one hand and Tiny's leash in the other, prepared to release the dog and grip his shotgun in both hands if needed.
In the special projects lab- Diana watched Stephanie work with fascination and curiosity. "But what's causing all this?" she asked.
"You must have been out of the room when I explained it earlier," said Stephanie.
"Just let her work," said Dr. Hausmann. "Do not distract her."
"It's okay, Brigetta, I can multitask. Anyway, the source of the dead reanimating and the other horrors that we've been facing today is extraterrestrial. And as you may have guessed, this didn't happen by accident. There's an intelligence directing all of this."
"It is aliens!" Diana said triumphantly. "I knew it!"
In the southeast hall, upper floor- Tariq, Amelia, and Lori picked up Kyle and carried him back to the balcony.
On the balcony- Tariq and his companions reached the balcony. More gunshots echoed from below, from the same direction as the earlier shots.
On the roof- Erica took one more shot at the crawling zombie to the west, missing by only a few feet. "Dammit!" she shouted. Both visible zombies reached the school building.

In the lobby-
Rachel does a survey of everyone's weapon, "We are all tooled-up, so to speak, but we'll take care; stick together, no one rush off. If we fire together a zombie won't stand a chance!"

Donald rushed past his wheel barrel and up to catch up with the others up ahead. "In the kitchen!" he called out to the others, in case they didn't have a good bead on where the gunfire was coming from. He looked around for a firebox in the hallway, hoping maybe there might be an axe in the case, but he didn't see any.

Tariq peers down from the balcony to see if he can discern anything. Since noone near him has a firearm, though, his interest is mostly casual.
"We can't do anything about whatever is happening down there," he says to Lori and Amelia, "so we might as well keep going to the science workshop."

OOC,I've taken over the character of [b]Declan[/b] for now due to extended player absence. He'll revert back if and when Iam477 returns.
In the north stairwell, ground floor- Declansuddenly heard something that snapped him out of his reverie. He hurried through the door and into the hall.
In the north hall, ground floor-
"I just heard more banging on the doors," Declan said to Emilio. "It's coming from the auditorium!"
In the lobby- Dr. Smith, Michelle, Chuck, and Tiny followed the women into the east hall just after Donald entered.
OOC,[b]Becky[/b] and [b]Rachel[/b], roll Sanity for seeing the body. Sanity loss is 1/1d4+1, so you'll still lose 1 Sanity even if you pass. [b]Donald[/b], you'll have to make this roll too if you enter the east hall. Also, [b]Becky[/b] and [b]Rachel[/b], but not [b]Donald[/b], should roll Psychology. The base skill is 5%.
On the balcony- Amelia and Lori continued helping Tariq carry Kyle north.
In the north hall, upper floor- Tariq and the women hauled Kyle onwards. "The lab is just up ahead," said Amelia. "I'm sure we'll find someone there who can help him."
In the special projects lab-
"Ugh," said Heather. "She's, like, always going on about aliens. Little Diana Scully."
"Actually, Mulder was the one who believed in aliens," said Diana. "Scully was the skeptic."
"Like, who cares?"
Stephanie hurried to finish her work, knowing that everyone was depending on her. The pressure was intense, but it also motivated her like nothing else. She'd never thought she'd really be saving the world, but now she truly might be. Just a few more minutes... she thought.
On the roof-
"I sure hope so," said Erica to Julianne, frowning. "That's two more of them got past me now."
"It would have been a lot more if not for your shooting," said Adam. "Anyway, Stephanie's almost done, and once she is it won't matter. I know she can do it."
"I just hope nobody else gets killed first. But you're right, she can. She's an amazing woman."
"That she is."
"Have you known her long?"
"We've worked together often during the past year."
"I'd better get down below and make sure she's protected while she finishes up." Erica hurried down the stairs.

Donald entered from the east hall and looked at the body and frowned. "What a mess..." he is heard to say knowing that he'll be the one expected to clean it up. "What's all that gray ash on him? Did he crawl in through a chimney?"
Donald headed for the kitchen to see where this man could have gotten in from.
OOC,[b]Donald[/b] can make it to the east hall in this round. It'll be another two before he can reach the kitchen. In the meantime, roll Know to identify the gray dust.

Seeing the majority of the others head towards the kitchen shooting, Emilio affirms Declan´s observation and says, "Let´s check that, maybe someone needs help to get in. That female cop might have circled the school to avoid the nasties. If not it could be nasties wanting to get in, then we should take care so that won´t get inside!" He opens the door to the auditorium and keeps the bat up.

Donald paused for an instant near the corpse as he peered at the gray soot. It seemed he had seen it before somewhere. "Oh, I know what that's from," he said as he turned toward the kitchen and started heading on in.

Donald Woodridge,The gray dust looked to be the same color as the concrete used in the construction area on the east side of the school. It probably came from there.
You're still in the east hall this round. Next round you'll be able to move into the cafeteria, and in the round after that you'll reach the kitchen.

"Anything can happen once people start getting hurt - but I don't think he's in too bad shape."
Tariq continues to move him into the science workshop, where he will ask if anyone has any medical experience and might be able to help Kyle.
[spoiler-button],By the way, I'm not sure, but I think there might be someone in the workshop who doesn't like Kyle. Tariq is prepared to physically protect his body from any angry teenage assailant - he would try not to hurt the person, but rather to block and restrain him or her.[/spoiler-button]

Entering the auditorium-
Opening the door, Emilio pushes it open using the bat as a pole, avoiding close contact with the door itself, prepared to move back... "Watch it!" he says to Declan.

In the gym- LaTanya followed Darnell down the stairs to the locker room area.
In the locker room hall- Darnell and LaTanya emerged from the staircase and rounded the corner to the left. On the left side were two doors, the first leading to the girls' locker room and the second to the boys' locker room. This was familiar territory for both athletes. The door at the end of the hall led to the swimming pool.
"So, is there some reason we're down here?" asked LaTanya. "Or did you just want to be alone with me?"
In the north hall, ground floor- Declan went into the auditorium with Emilio.
In the auditorium- Emilio and Declan cautiously entered the auditorium. It appeared empty and undisturbed, except for two of the fire exits. The west door was barely hanging on by one hinge, and then it was suddenly knocked inward, onto the floor. A dead woman with a bullet hole in her head crawled across the threshold and over the fallen door. The door at the northeast corner of the huge room was in very bad shape too, and it too was smashed down. The animated corpse of a teenage boy, also with a gunshot wound to the head, crawled in.
OOC,[b]Emilio[/b], roll Sanity for seeing the zombies. Sanity loss is 0/1d10. You've already lost 1 Sanity for seeing zombies, so a loss of 10 counts as 9 instead. If you remain sane, you may act. The zombies are not close enough to attack you unless you choose to attack one hand-to-hand. Trying to hit one in the head will have a -5 penalty to your skill. Any hit of 2 or more damage to the head will finish either zombie off, so you don't need to roll damage if you hit. Your damage bonus guarantees that you'll do at least 2 damage.
In the east hall, ground floor-
"No, I won't let them get me!" said Michelle. "I won't let them turn me into one of them!" She stared at the barrel of her pistol.
Dr. Smithdidn't notice anything either. He went through the door to the cafeteria with Becky, Rachel, Chuck, and Tiny.
Michelle remained behind in the east hall. Donald walked in and caught up with her.
OOC,[b]Donald[/b], roll Psychology. The base skill is 5%. You may enter the cafeteria this round.
In the cafeteria-
When Rachel and the others entered, they could see that the door to the kitchen had been smashed open from the other side. Fragments of tables that had been used as a makeshift barricade were scattered around it. From beyond the door and outside they could hear another gunshot. Then there was silence.
In the north hall, upper floor- Amelia helped Tariq and Lori carry Kyle into the special projects lab. Erica emerged from the stairwell and entered behind them.
In the special projects lab-
The people gathered looked to the door when they saw the three people carrying the unconscious Kyle. "Are there any doctors in here?" asked Amelia. "He's hurt pretty bad."
"Ja," said Dr. Hausmann. "I can help. Put him down over there, bitte." She indicated the line of chairs where she had helped treat LaTanya earlier.
"I'll help too," said Dr. Liz Somerville.
"I'm not a medical doctor," said Dr. Helene Saunders, "but I may be able to aid him some."
"I've still got a couple of minutes left to finish up," said Stephanie as she typed, "but maybe I can assist when I'm done." She concentrated harder, her brow furrowing. The last few pieces of the puzzle were falling into place.
Erica Spears entered. "I'm glad you're almost done," she said. "I shot all I could, but a few of them got past me. With the power restored, the fence is holding now, but we need to do something about the ones that got through before it came back on."
On the roof-
"Hang in there, kids," said Adam to Elijah and Michiko. "We're going to be all right, I'm sure of it. It's almost over."

Emiliogasps at the dead forcing the fire doors. The gasp is stuck in his throat as he attempts to breathe. He manages to wriggle his mind around what he sees and and decides to head in to the auditorium to finish the sad bastards off. He keeps the bat at the ready to ward off an attack and attempts a punch at the one at the north eastern entrance. His fist connects with the teenage boy´s head and sends him to rest. He wipes the back of his hand and starts to walk to the remaining moving corpse.

Hearing the gunshot beyond the smashed barricade was comforting to Becky somehow. It sounded cool and controlled, as opposed to the wild sound of a clip being emptied in panic. She grips her shotgun and speeds through the room toward the kitchen,
"Come on!"
