Brayden hadn't been expecting what had happened. there had been someone calling her name and then gunshots. She was scared already. Savages, that's what they must have been! Savages! They wanted to trap and kill her and they wanted to steal her ship! She made a mad dash away as a man came up behind her, grabbing the dogs she hadn't known were stalking her. It was so frightening! Maybe she should have just stayed on the ocean. Everyone could live via ocean travel indefinitely, especially Brayden, with her good stock. Still this world was clearly still dangerous! She raced to the nearest place, which was the town hall. But now there were those same savages in the building! She fled to the top stairs. Infected were outside, she could hear them!<br/><br/>There was only one thing to do now; PANIC! Complete and utter panic ran through Brayden. However, her rational mind began to kick in quickly. She was panicking and scared but she could salvage the situation. If the savages were running away from the infected as well that meant they were uninfected and thus had some sort of brains about them. The standard human being was very much a pack and social animal, which meant, in times of need, even the most savage individuals would turn to the presence of their fellow human beings in order to attain salvation. logically speaking they wouldn't be too willing to kill her in this instance and certain agreements could be made, even with savages, in the future, to gain trust and companionship. Brayden thought through her several plans, counter plans and counter-counter plans in seconds, finally coming to the point that it would be safer to make contact with the savages than to stay clear from them,. They had weapons and Brayden did not. She stepped down the stairs in the City Hall and popped her head around the corner. There was a man with a shotgun and one with a sword. A woman sat shaking on the ground and Brayden could hardly blame her. Brayden herself was in a panic at her core as well. "E-Excuse me?" She stuttered out from the top of the stairs. "I-It would b-be wise to find h-higher g-ground... You would g-gain the advantage of tactical positioning th-that way... Come up the s-stairs."
