			Emma looked at Doc and said, "I'm not afraid of the walkers. I would say the word 'lonely' right about now, alright? I miss my family, my old job working as a medic, but all of that is gone now, even the friends I worked with."<br/>
<br/>
She walked over to her window and said, "We haven't had much luck in supplies, but I did manage to bring all of my medical supplies, so if anyone needs their wounds cleaned up, I'm the person who can do it." She found a seat and took the box of cookies and ate one.<br/>
<br/>
"If all you had was stale food, you would eat it, since that was all Nathan could find out here for us to eat. That and some water I think has been out in the heat for too long."<br/>
<br/>
She watched him take out the MREs and since she was never in the military, she had no idea what those brown packages where. She asked, "So those MREs... How do you get the food out of there? I mean, look at how small those packages are, and I'm hungry."

</blockquote><br/><i>"I'm not afraid of the walkers. I would say the word 'lonely' right about now, alright? I miss my family, my old job working as a medic, but all of that is gone now, even the friends I worked with."</i>Doc looked at the girl. She didn't look much like a medic, or whatever she called herself. Medic wasn't much of a real job from before, so she could have been... something. EMT maybe? But she was too young.<br/><br/>"I highly doubt that you aren't afraid, especially since you believed I<i>was</i>a walker, even though all evidence pointed to the contrary. Your fear clouded your judgement, and that's how I know you both are afraid, since he didn't do anything about it."<br/><br/><i>"We haven't had much luck in supplies, but I did manage to bring all of my medical supplies, so if anyone needs their wounds cleaned up, I'm the person who can do it."</i>Doc chuckled.<br/><br/>"Yeah, and I can patch people up, give them proper medicine and identify what ails them." He looked at the girl. "I don't call myself Doc for shits and giggles."<br/><br/><i>"If all you had was stale food, you would eat it, since that was all Nathan could find out here for us to eat. That and some water I think has been out in the heat for too long."</i><br/><br/>Doc shrugged, pulling out one of the square, brown packages that contained the MREs. "Heat doesn't really affect water all that much, other than it's temperature. And the cookies aren't stale, they're downright expired. You could get food poisoning from eating them." He said, looking at Kat, who already ate a cookie.<br/><br/>"And you already ate a few. Great."<br/><br/><i>"So those MREs... How do you get the food out of there? I mean, look at how small those packages are, and I'm hungry."</i>Doc tossed a couple of MREs to the pair. "Meals, Ready to Eat. Military rations with a shelf life of five years, and the taste to go with it." He looked around. It wasn't much. The hotel, he saw from the alley, was only a few stories tall, but was still in a heavily urbanized part of the edge of the city. "The MREs are completely filling, and have many of your basic needs in one pack, from a meal to coffee substitutes, water purification tablets, even toilet paper." He observed that the boy - Nathan - had a hunting rifle and a hunting knife, and the girl had a small pistol and sai. Why the hell she had a sai, he could not fathom. In any case, the sai would be ineffective against the infected, as would the pistol. Same could be said with the hunting rifle and the knife of the boy.<br/><br/>He had bets that they would be dead within the month, either from starvation, other humans taking advantage of them, or through infection.<br/><br/>"Now, I know the boy's name from you, but I don't know yours," Doc said, walking towards the front door. "And what are you two to each other anyway? Brother and sister, boyfriend and girlfriend, master and slave, what?" He looked at the way the door was boarded up. It wasn't exactly prime construction, there were a lot of materials wasted that could be used again, but it was what the boy thought it could keep them safe. He looked at the pair. "I don't judge, really. I just wanna know so I know that you guys won't kill me in my sleep." He snorted at that. Like that would ever happen.<br/><br/>He never slept.
