text: This is the man you've chosen to marry for better or worse. If you aren't going to help him in a matter of life or death then that wouldn't say much for your commitment.
  
  Besides, if he gets killed this whole compound is going to turn to shit and you'd no doubt be at the bottom of it, assuming Aaron doesn't kill you all first.
  
  Pulling away from Helen, you grab one of the dropped rifles by one of Bobby's family and rush outside towards Bobby who is still taking cover behind a car and firing upon the Aaron. He sees you out the corner of his eye while still keeping an eye on the direction of the truck.
  
  "Keep your head down, I think Aaron escaped out the passenger door of the truck and is hiding behind Brandon's car now. Where the hell did you come from anyway? I told Helen to go get you and the younger children to a safer location when Aaron showed up." Bobby exclaims.
  "Yeah well I'm showing you that I'm not just going to let you do this shit alone. I'm with you all the way. No hiding with Helen and the kids, no matter what you say."
  
  You're interrupted by gunfire on your position and Aaron ranting.
  
  "You think you can stop what's coming by hiding? Hah! People are already fucking EATING each other out there! Shit, I'll be doing you a favor by killing you now. Actually now that I think about... your blonde bitch looks like a fine piece of ass in more way than one!" Aaron shouts and starts laughing maniacally and then throws another grenade your way.
  
  You and Bobby have no choice but to leave your position and make a dash back to the house entrance. It's somewhat of a minor miracle that you and Bobby aren't hit by any of the bullets he fires at you. You manage to get inside just as the grenade goes off and adds to the total of destroyed vehicles outside.
  
  You and Bobby are on the floor though Bobby has partially managed to cover you with his own body.
  
  "What the hell did he do, rip off the entire National Guard armory?" you say as Bobby back kicks the front door shut from his prone position.
  "I don't know but..."
  
  Two more explosions are heard on the left side of compound. Aaron is apparently throwing explosives through the windows now.
  
  "Shit, I hope nobody ran and hid over there." You remark as the pair of you start to get up off the floor.
  "Where the fuck IS everyone anyway? Nice to know I can REALLY count on these fuckers when the going gets tough. Why the fuck am I even bothering again? Fuck!" Bobby yells in frustration.
  
  You understand his anger, but it's probably not the best time for a rant.
  
  "Bobby, calm yourself. You can yell at those idiots later, but right now all that matters is that I'm here helping you okay?" you say.
  "Hey...I'll help too..." a voice suddenly says. You both look and see that it's Helen with a pistol in hand.
  "Helen, you're supposed to be with the children!" Bobby exclaims.
  "Veronica and Brandon are with them. When they ran, the children's room upstairs was the first place they went. Guess they were concerned about their daughters."
  "...well I guess I can understand the pair of them running to their children. So they're looking after all the kids then?" Bobby remarks.
  "Yeah, I figured since they were doing that, I'd come help you, though I hope I just don't get in the way."
  "No, it's good. Glad you're here Helen. What about Ronald and Denise?" Bobby says.
  "Haven't seen them. Um, I haven't seen Diana either...in case you were wondering." Helen remarks briefly glancing at you after saying it.
  "Hopefully Aaron kills her." You remark.
  "Yeah, well I actually was going to exile her today, but that might have to wait assuming Aaron doesn't kill her." Bobby says.
  "Okay, enough of all this. What's the game plan?" you ask slightly disappointed that Bobby's decision was to exile Diana rather than death, but you aren't entirely surprised. Still, there's always the hope that Aaron does kill her.
  
  Bobby quickly snaps back to the situation at hand.
  
  "Well it sounds like he's stopped with the explosives, or maybe he's just fishing out more. I'd say the safest bet is to get to the second floor and shoot him through one of the windows. No point in going back out the front door when we can get the vantage point."
  "How do we know he's still outside, he might've already entered house through one of the holes he's undoubtedly made with his grenades." You say.
  "Yeah true. No telling where he might be heading first. The armory maybe?" Helen remarks.
  "He's still gotta come through this way if he wants to go there. Given his state of mind though he might also try to do something like run upstairs and kill all the children for fun. Hell, I wouldn't put it past him to try to access the prisoner's dungeon and set them all free. It is on the left wing after all."
  Maybe we should split up and take different floors?" Helen asks.
  "Maybe though I'm not keen on the idea of splitting up. (Sigh) Okay. Since you said Brandon and Veronica are with the children, I'm going to hope they're up to dealing with Aaron if he shows up. I'm going to the left wing of the house and try to stop him there. I want you two to stay here and guard the foyer in case he somehow manages to sneak past me and is heading towards the armory. He's going to have come through here." Bobby says.
  
  Helen immediately complies with the plan, but you're not so sure.
  
  "I really think I should come with you. Splitting up is always a bad idea in these situations."
  "I don't like it either, but it's a big house and we need to cast a wide net to deal with this asshole." Bobby says and then puts his arm over you and takes you aside.
  
  "Besides, as glad as I am that Helen stepped up, we both know she's not exactly a fighter. I don't want her coming with me and possibly getting in my way when I'm hunting Aaron, but by the same token I'd feel more comfortable if you were here with her since I know you can handle yourself and aren't going to freeze up in a fight. I'll be fine by myself. Don't worry about me. I mean I did kill your uncle Ed by myself right?" Bobby whispers.
  
  You glance over at Helen and as brave as she's trying to appear, she still looks like a deer in the headlights. Bobby's right in that her survival would probably increase if you were here and she had the misfortune of Aaron popping up.
  
  Then again by the same token, YOU'D actually feel safer being with Bobby. You'd also worry less about Bobby's own safety if you were watching his back. After all, this situation is also little different than the one with your uncle. Aaron's not just carrying a knife; he's carrying around grenades and machine guns for one thing. Also, while Helen might be a nice girl, she's ultimately not your responsibility.
  
  > stay with Helen
  Bobby is going to be able to take care of himself and if he feels more comfortable with you staying with Helen, well it'll probably put one less distraction in his mind while he's looking for Aaron.
  
  Also now that the gunfire has died down a bit, you've gotten a breather to realize that maybe you rushed into things a little quickly due to wanting to help Bobby so bad. Aaron is really dangerous and you nearly got yourself killed. Maybe you're becoming more assertive, but you probably should realize you're not some amazon princess to go in guns blazing.
  
  "Okay Bobby, I'll stay with Helen, but please be careful." You remark.
  "I'll be fine, you two just keep a look out and remember, if you see him, don't talk, just shoot. Oh and if Ronald and Denise ever come out of hiding and pass through here, tell them to fucking help you." Bobby says and then kisses you before heading to the left wing of the house.
  
  Soon after Bobby leaves, you put your back against one of the walls and start keeping an eye on the doorways. Helen tries to do the same, but she paces a lot more. It's obvious she's nervous, but the fact that she's nervous, starts making you nervous.
  
  "Helen will you stop pacing like that? You're putting me more on edge than necessary." You say.
  "Sorry. This is just so nerve racking. I'm really worried about Bobby you know? I wonder if we should've gone with him."
  "You heard what he said, he wants us to stay here to make sure Aaron doesn't manage to run around him to other parts of the house. Besides he said he can handle Aaron and I trust him." You say.
  "Yeah I guess you're ri...AH! WHAT WAS THAT?!" Helen suddenly exclaims causing you to jump.
  "Don't fucking do that!" you say.
  "But didn't you hear that noise? It sounds like its coming from the left wing where Bobby went."
  "I didn't hear anything, you're paranoid."
  "I swear! I heard something! Ohhh, I think we should go help Bobby, but I dunno...oh I wish none of this was going on!" Helen says and begins pacing in the middle of the room even more to the point of starting to shake a bit.
  
  At this moment you starting to get concerned she's going to accidently fire off her gun at you, not to mention she's starting to get on your nerves. You walk over to not so gently calm her down.
  
  "HELEN! Stop it and clam the fuck down!" you say and grab Helen's arm tightly.
  
  Then you briefly hear the sounds of rushing footsteps behind you and you don't even get to completely turn around before you feel a crushing blow to the side of your head.
  
  You crumple to the floor on your knees and then another blow to your head causes you to collapse flat on the floor and lose grip of your rifle. A pair of blurry hands quickly grabs it from you.
  
  "What took you so long?" Helen asks.
  "Had to wait for a fucking opportunity. Took YOU long enough to distract her."
  "Well hurry up, I'm worried about Bobby! I think we should help him."
  "He'll be fine, I'm going to enjoy this...turn your ass over bitch, I wanna look you in the eye when I kill you." Diana says and kicks you over.
  
  You vision is blurry due to the blows to the head you've taken, but you can make out the image of Diana pointing a rifle straight at you. You try to get up, but Diana kicks you in the face.
  
  "Diana, hurry up!"
  "Will you shut the fuck up Helen? I'm trying to savor the moment and you're ruining it!"
  "I don't want one of our cousins suddenly walking in on us!"
  "Oh like they're going to do anything...(Sigh) fine. I swear Helen, you're no fun whatsoever. Well blondie, I wish I could take more time with you, but time isn't on my side any more than its on yours right now, so guess this is it. You never should've laid eyes on Bobby bitch." Diana says.
  
  Despite Diana aiming for your head and being at this close range she manages to completely fuck up her shot and hit you in the throat instead which doesn't kill you instantly. Of course maybe that was her intension to let you suffer a bit more.
  
  As you gurgle, choke and start to die, you hear two more shots and through blurry (and now dimming) vision you see Diana's image get hit and fall backwards.
  
  Helen kneels down next to you and starts stroking the top of your head and hair as you bleed out and die.
  
  "Shhhh, it'll be over soon. I'm so sorry for this Suzy. I always liked you. You were just in the way..." are the last words you hear.
