Bern tumbled over onto his back, he hadn't expected one of those "Things" to appear so fast. Trying his best to get up, Bern looked at the door which was now wide open. The creatures were starting to try and swarm in. Acting as fast as he could, he pulled out a blood-stained kitchen knife and threw it at one of the nearby monsters. Of course, not being the greatest at throwing, the knife only stabbed into the "Thing"'s leg.

"Oh you're kidding me, that was my ONLY knife..give it back!"

In a rather stupid manner, Bern got to his feet and tried to pull his knife out of the "Thing"'s leg...

Harvey wrestled off the thing on top of him, and gave it a judicous hit with his baton.The metal pole collided with the thing's face, causing the cheek bones to shatter, shard's entering the thing's brain.
"You! Up here!Quick!" Shouted harvey, not wasting energy, grabbing one of the secure bulet proof door's ready to slam them shut when the newcomer came in.

[Bernie]

"But my...my knife..."

Bern looked up at the creature. It was about to lunge at his face and quite possibly rip him limb from limb. He let go of the knife and backed off from the creature quick enough to avoid being eaten. Deciding it was nice to live than die, Bern turned round and ran through the doors.

"Fine...but you owe me a knife!"

[Pastinator]

Harvey slammed the door shut.It was bullet proof, but it seemed like nothing would stand up to that eternal pounding. Just in case he grabbed a book case and pushed it down in front.
"We're a bit of a mess right now, we've got a man down, if you want you can go help Gina sort out our vehicle, she'l explain it to you, or just wait about, we can do the intro's later."

((OOC: if you want to do the first suggestion choose one topic below the main story.))

"Happy thoughts, happy thoughts..." whispered Titus as he edged the heated piece of metal towards the gaping stub in place of Niall's arm.
"Do I apply it directly, or just sit the piece of metal near the wound for a bit?" asked Titus, a little unsure of what to do.

[Pastinator]

"I think you need to heat the metal up, then put the metal on the wound, but i think you should ask Thomas first," said Harvey.

[MSpencer]

"Directly, and make sure it's red hot. Cover the entire arm, and make sure the artery stops spurting, here, hold his arm up," Thomas said moving over to put his foot on the unconscious man's undamaged arm, while grabbing the other.
"This is going to hurt one hell of a lot," he said as a beat from the heart sent blood oozing from the capillaries of the severed arm.
"Do it now or he's dead."

[Paladin58]

"Got it. Remember, Niall, happy thoughts..." says Titus, just before pressing the searing-hot piece of metal to the wound. What followed was a scream of bone-shattering pain that Titus had never heard before, and never wanted to hear again.

[MSpencer]

The "patient" underneath him bucked again, a situation quite reminiscent of a medical treatment class back when Thomas was pursuing Pre-Med. Shouts filled the room as the smell of burning flesh permeated the air. Blood, which had at one point been trickling at a steady pace from no less than ten veins and numerous capillaries, now stopped as the various vascular structures were burned closed. The thoracic artery, which at once had been spurting blood with every solemn thump, finally ceased its endless spew of newly oxygenated blood. After three seconds, the plate was removed with a slight gesture. Some blood still remained, so it was reapplied for another two seconds. The result was a cleanly cauterized wound. It would likely be infected, facilitating the need for immediate sterile bandaging, pain medication, antibiotics, and certainly some units of plasma. A pool of dark crimson blood now bathed the floor, presenting a terrible obstacle for any who dared to walk over it. In a day or so, the blood would be teeming with deadly microorganisms, yet another motivatory factor towards getting people moving in the right direction.

[Bernie]

Bern stood by the doors. Other than the groans of the creatures, the only thing he could hear was his fast-pounding heart. His senses then came back as he heard the screaming from upstairs.

"...I would've done better out there. Atleast I would've had my knife."

Bern sat down and began to read some of the books from the bookcase beside him...

[Pastinator]

"Hey, kiddo! shouted Harvey,"We need some help in here!You couldn't help sweeping up this blood could you?We need to sort out bandages and the like, and blood aint exactly gonna help the patient is it? " Harvey then walked over to the first aid kit and grabbed some bandages. "I know it's stupid, but we havn't got much, your probally better at me than this, so here you go" said harvey, handing over the Bandages.

[Fire Ze Missiles!]

'Christ... that was hectic' Gary thought. He still had his gun levelled at the creatures outside, but all of a sudden there was a bookcase in his line of fire. He decided that he would never again underestimate Harvey's ability to beat the crap out of the living dead. He was certainly proficient with that truncheon.
He was snapped out of his revery by the terrible scream. He shuddered, suddenly cold.
"Hey" he said to the newcomer, "I'm Gary. Let's get this blood off the floor."

[Ash]

Regina, however, was somewhat more cautious. Her eyes coldly looking over the newcomer for any sign of bite marks or blood.
"Good thing you haven't been attacked," she said, as she moved on to the door area. They couldn't stay here forever. These...things, whatever they were, would probably find a way in eventually.

"Does this place have a basement we can access?" she asked, mostly to those who'd been here a while, "I saw a manhole on the roadway on my way here. It's possible that we could blast a passageway through to the sewer or storm drainage system and make our way out if there's a basement."

She looked to Niall. "That might not be such a good idea for him, but some of us could make our way out of here without fear of being attacked by those things and get help or supplies we need. I also need to go try and find other survivors, as per my mission. All depends on whether it has one, and whether it's crawling with freaks."

[Fire Ze Missiles!]

Gary looked up from his intensive scrubbing, his now longer hair falling over his face.
"I saw a drain down in the cells," he said. "That might do it."

[Ash]

"Good. Who's coming?"

[Pastinator]

"No, no!" said Harvey, his eyes dimly scared, "We had our plan, come on!Anyway, we don't have supplies and our car might be able to be fixed!Anyway, it's bulet proof glass!" he seemed to be losing his chain of command and he hated that, he was in charge!He was about to make more of a point when Gina was interrupted.

"I think that's a good idea," she said, her eyes looking pointedly at Harvey." Some of us could go on and check the sewer's, i doubt many people would have been caught there during the outbreak! The only problem is what to do about Niall... I think we should move our base of operations down, see how Niall is then decide from there. And Bernie, there's some gun's in the aurmory, an SMG and some pistol's, you might need something else in case you run out of ammo, a truncheon could do but only the plastic one's are left. See what else you can find.

((OOC: Bernie, by see what you can find i'm am letting you have free range over melee weapons as long as they are improvised ones, if your not sur ewhat i'll let, pm me.))

[Bernie]

Bern looked at Gary. He raised an eyebrow before standing up. "My name? In times like this, people are still askin' names? Well...it's Bernado...but my friends call me Bernie, or rather my friends used to call me Bernie. I'm not sure if there were any other survivors there." Bern let out a sigh, but then perked up. "There was plenty of food. Only managed to get one piece of meat out through those creatures though." Bern pulled out a mouldy piece of meat and handed it to Gary before walking towards Harvey.

"Weapons eh? Right I'll go looking. Let's just hope there's none of those creatures that were in here already...and the sewers are worth a try...but it's up to you I guess." Bern winked at Harvey before heading off to the armory.

[Ash]

"I'll go load up, then," Regina said, giving a nod of appreciation to Gina. "I need to stock up on nine ammo, and see what else I can find."

Making her way cautiously down to the armoury, she followed the darkened corridors, scanning each corridor as she went in a very military manner, checking each corner and facing opposite the direction she wanted to go to ensure that she was not being followed or was about to be taken by surprise.

Her red hair slightly obscured her steely expression as she stepped her way there.

A strange grotesquety made its way around the corner. The flesh stained blue from bruising and lack of oxygen, the eyes glazed and rolled back. The clothes torn and the mouth and tongue lolling. It made a loud groan as it came towards her.

*click* Her safety went from 'semi' to 'auto' on both her MP5Ks, and then pulled the triggers. Tensing her muscles to keep the guns from walking up, they spat gunfire, tearing the being to pieces. Trouble was, they could soak up the damage with little or no adverse effects.
"Just die, damn you! Bern!," she called back behind her to the other man who'd followed her down, "Stay back unless you've got a shotgun or something! We've got one of those freaks here!"

[Bernie]

Bern didn't want to seem helpless, but at the same time, he was helpless. "Hey...woman I didn't catch the name of...umm...it's just one of 'em right? I mean, I might be able to barge past it and get one of those guns?"

Bern looked at the creature as it got back to it's feet. "On second thought..yeah I'll stay 'ere."
