Earlwise jumped behind a fire hydrant, trying to take some sort of cover from the foreign gun shot. He looked up and saw Mr. Military man shouting orders. When he cleared his mind of judgment day and what not, he heard that everyone was going to the grocery store. He looked around at all the 'would be potential survivors'. He took a gander at Crystal.<em>Wow she's a boss gal.</em>He knew his only hope now was to follow the Sgt. to the new fortress.<br/><br/>Earlwise usually did this sort of thing alone...mostly because everyone was sane enough to never listen to him. But this was a nice change of pace. He stood up and left the comfort of his fire hydrant, put on his message board as if it were armor, tucked the bug spray in between his pants and hoisted the gardening hoe onto a shoulder as if he were walking in a platoon holding a rifle. Earlwise stood straight and saluted, he proceeded to the Shoppin's. He felt a bit hesitant though, a few years back that was his area of choice to spread the truth of Impending doom. After a while the manager filled a restraining order on him that didn't allow him within 50yrds of the store after tried to steal one of those electric powered handicapped scooters.
