Kristie looked at Markus and smiled sweetly, the first in a while by Kristie's personal accounts. "<strong>Yeah well, its not somewhere we all need to be going.</strong>" Kristie sighed, knowing all too well what laid awaiting them in that hospital. The scream she'd heard might have been in her head. She rationed the morphine and shock from the last several weeks had taken their toll in mental ways, not just physical. The pain was back, her entirey body ached. She felt weak, but inside her mind she felt strong, like maybe she'd made a difference today. She wondered what would have happened to Markus and Jake had she not shown up, but even that wasn't good enough. She knew Jake and Markus would have been absolutely fine, all Kristie could do was make useless explosives and scare everyone.<br/><br/>Kristie heard a faint noise behind her and turned around to see Jake slipping inside, her eyes drifting down along his backside as he disappeared<em>Not bad for Army...</em>Kristie thought to herself. She smirked at the turn of events, from the worst situation they could all be in to having all sorts of fun, Kristie cursed her inability to create relationships with people quickly, but maybe the end of world changed her. She grinned at Markus and elbowed him in the shoulder. "<strong>I'm lucky I'm not you right now...</strong>" Kristie chuckled quietly. "<strong>..your probably going to have to sleep through those two kids screwing on your little shelves..</strong>" Kristie giggled quietly, leaning forward over the edge of the roof to do a quick check of the front. The bodies hadn't moved and no others had shown up thus far.<br/><br/>Another faint noise, mixing a voice and movement behind her, Kristie turned as Dinah went downstairs as well, her eyes again slipping down to her backside.<em>That is NOT alright, get your ass in like Marine</em>Kristie scolded herself. Hell, if she had to live by the rules she was going to die before breaking them. Then again, the Marine Corps and Army had no specific rules regarding lesbianism, and considering for all intents and purposes the United States of America, and the human race for that matter, were likely screwed it didn't seem to matter much. Kristie had to get her mind elseware, and focused out on the parking lot as her night vision punched through the intense rain.<br/><br/>"<strong>So...Markus...</strong>" Kristie said quietly, hoping to God neither Jake or Dinah heard this. "<strong>We can't take them into the hospital, its too dangerous. Dinah, shes obviously good enough to survive on her own but shes too damn young to be in that type of situation...</strong>" Kristie nodded, thinking more like a Marine now than anything else, first and foremost keep Civilians out of harms way in situations like this, then again Dinah had managed to survive on her own, which meant she could definitely work as a team. "<strong>..and Jake well, I don't know, I can't peg him as an experienced soldier yet but since I don't know him, I'll peg my refusal to let him come on the fact his sins aren't pressing like ours.</strong>" Kristie realised she sounded religious, which is a crazy thing. She prayed to God when she was scared and during combat for sure, but she didn't believe in all that crap. Yes, there was a big guy upstairs who did his thing but if he wanted everyone to pray hands and knees, then she would be dead already and the crazies who followed and begged all the time would be sitting cozy.<br/><br/>"<strong>I figure you've got one hell of a thing on your shoulders, and I don't know nor care what it is, but since your alive now I'm assuming it wasn't something pretty.</strong>" Kristie nodded in recognition of the human survival instincts, which surpassed all else. Love, trust and friendship could never defeat survival, some people who died for others simply survived long enough to do that, and then the person they saved survived to do something else. It was a cycle, the dead all had a story, most of them were something to really take an eye too. Kristie believed every life was special, it had some meaning, but like most people she disregarded that feeling for her own life. Overwhelmed by her unimportance, she considered herself so. "<strong>..but none of that matters. That hospital is going to become a problem, and we'll need it eventually. We can get everything, generators, food and water and especially medicine there, where as we'll have to move around a lot at any other place. Maybe even guns, since...I have a feeling that hospital isn't as secure as it looks.</strong>" Kristie grunted as she shifted her weight, causing her knee to flare up in pain. "<strong>The question now is, how do we get there without them following, and if something happens...how do we protect them?</strong>" Kristie asked, thinking about the massive explosives she had. Looking over at the building, she figured putting two inside could level the entire building. A slick grin spread across her face as she looked over at Markus.
