Day Ten

It's like all we are is flies waiting to get swatted down. The plan somewhat worked, but now we're down three more people. Will gave his life trying to help get the power back on, and April and Cujo have gone A.W.O.L on us. Things are a bit hectic right now so I'm gonna keep this short and sweet.About two days back when the power went out on us we came up with a plan to get everything back on. We were still using the exercise bikes as back-ups while Freddie finalized his plan to get the main grid back up. He main plan was to have Freddie go through a man hole to get to the generators and have Will standing ready as in case he had to go in after him. Keyser and Brian had taken their places on the roof to provide cover fire while Fred was going down. From what I was told there were a few stragglers that got past Brian and Keyser, so will was going to move around and take them out. Since he wasn't as use to repelling as Freddie was wound up kicking himself of too much that he slices his hand on a piece of metal as he tried to catch himself. That was pretty much it for him. He dropped down about half the way to the ground right above a pack of teeth. Brian and Keyser tried to pull him up, but with so much literal dead wait pulling back it was hopeless.Now here comes the funnest part. While I'm keeping an eye on the inside as Mastaff is riding the cycle, I notice April and Cujo are nowhere in sight. I tell Mastaff to hold tight for a minute while I went scout for them. As soon as I turn the corner into the grocery aisle I see the two of them grabbing as much food and supplies as their greedy bodies could handle. As best as I can figure between dog boy's best friend getting killed and April's near death experience with him, the decided that making a run for it was a good option. Whatever it was I guess they didn't expect to see me looking for them. I imagine that they thought I would be too preoccupied to notice that they were gone. I spoke to both of them at the same time and see who would blame what and what bullshit excuse would get thrown out. Needless to say I was pretty much head on with my assumption. April starting balling say that she was scared and too young to die (which how a 45 year old with talon's claws replacing her crow's feet is young I dunno) and that Cujo promised her that he knew a way out of everything. Cujo in turn says that he'd rather face those things outside than sit in her and end up like Theresa. I held myself in check as best as I could and tried to stroke their ego's a little bit. I told Cujo that he was the bravest on out of us all, and the April had a knack for solving problems that was invaluable. This proves that God isn't watching us, cause if he had been I would have been struck down right there for telling that massive ass lie. At about that same time I hear the others coming back, so I gather the moron squad and head back to Mastaff.That basically catches everything up to about 3 hours ago. Brian's taking the loss of Will and the near desertion of April and Cujo pretty bad. I had to talk him out of shooting them both on the spot for being so stupid. Right now we're getting a plan together to go and get Freddie, but it's gonna be tough. I'll see if I can whip up some pipe bombs and gather what all ammo we have left. Ya know, with all of this happening how could it be that NO ONE has gotten a whiff of the chaos that's been going on. There's no way that an entire city can be massacred and no one have any idea about it. Well that's a question for later, right now we've got some heads to bust. I Will post again.
