The constant flickering of the strobe was unsetting. The uncertainity of what was causing the light to flicker like that was bothering him. Was it a bunch of infected attracted by the light? Or maybe just animals, or another harmless critter? The strobe filled up the night vision and the flickering was brief so he couldn't make out the shapes of whatever was in front of it.<br/><br/>Utem rose silently to Hackett's words, she could say Ashleigh was in charge, but it was most likely she would be the one giving orders. He cupped his mic with his hand, still keeping an eye in the direction the strobe was in, while he tried to pick any sound around them. "Ok, you heard her, we will move at a steady pace, not too fast to avoid attracting atention or making too much noise. Ashleigh behind me, Derrick behind her, followed by Franka and Joe." he moved closer to them so they could hear him since they weren't wearing headsets. He moved to where the gear was and brought them swiftly but silently, before taking both of his, he hadn't had time to arrange them into only one.<br/><br/>"Ok, lets go." He said taking out his other gun, already suppresed, and began walking South, using a compass mounted on his sleeve to guide him. He hoped that they were able to follow and keep a lookout for anything around them, he would move at an steady pace since he was carrying a bag on chest, but since it was a kilometer he would still try to keep a decent speed. His eyes moved between the front and the floor, avoiding branches and other obstacles that could give their position away.
