I was. Until sickness came upon me. XD okalee dokalee neighbor

Aim snarls to herself as she stares down at the bodies below her. The zombies where clawing at the wall from the alley way. A few had been capable enough to climb a few rungs of the ladder she had used to get to the second apartment. She had shot down the ones inside the room but didnt have enough ammo to clear the entire building

Axl heard gunshots somewhere inside the building. Someone's here. He stood on the roof of the apartment, looking out across the town. Zombies littered the streets, walking around aimlessly. (HAHAHAHA AIM goodness okay I'll stop.) He took out his gun hearing the gunshot. He walked around the edge of roof, searching for actual life.

Aim vaults back into the apartment and surveys the area. It was disgusting but. If it where cleaned out would make a good hide out. She walks over to the front door and tries it. Locked. Thatś fine. She could just use the fire escape to get in and out.

A loud grunt comes from behind him. He whips around, firing his gun at the walking corpse hitting it in the forehead. He continues walking around. It's been a year and a half since the apocalypse started. The human population had declined by hundreds within the first week. From what he guessed, there were only about a thousand humans left, scattered among cities world-wide filled with bodies that have no memories, no thoughts, nothing. He was originally from the town over, but he needed to leave. He couldn't see all the people he used to know when they couldn't see him. Axl scans the city as the sun lowers itself slowly into the shelter of the night. Shelter for the sun, quite opposite for humans.

Aim stalks quickly over to the fridge and opens it. The smell was almost overpowering. She stumbles away from it, coughing and retching. She was holding her throat and hurled out the window down to the wave of zombies below on the ground, "Disgusting! You loosers suck!"
She had found molded and rotten food in the fridge, "Well now what? I have no food, ammo. Just dead zombie bodies." SHe kicks the head of one which bangs against the opposite wall, "And Im stuck here."

There's definitely someone here. Axl freezes and readies his gun at the voice. It came from the the room directly below him, he was sure of that much. He leaned over the edge to see hair whipped back in the window. For the past year and a half, he's avoided humans and zombies alike. They were all the same. They either didn't have feelings. No sympathy or empathy. They'll kill you just to save themselves. There's a ladder. A ladder ran next to the window all the way to the alley floor. Where zombies roamed. Ready to kill. So, either run out of ammo and die, die on the rooftop of starvation, or see another human after not seeing one for a little less than a year. I'll take my chances. He made his way down a few steps of the ladder quietly when he heard the last sentence. "I'm stuck here." Something caught his foot on the ladder. Crap. His shoe was stuck. He tried to get it unstuck. Crap crap crap.

AIm jerks her head around. She readies her sniper and tuck-and-rolls out of the window. The sniper up and ready, "Who's there?! Im armed!" She was bluffing though. SHe had no ammo and if t where a zombie she'd be done for.

"Hey hey hey!" Axl brings his gun up too, holding onto the ladder with only one arm. There's a fierce look in her eyes, but also a lie. He's always been good at knowing if someone lied. Especially Ella… He pushes the thought away, lowering his gun. "Go on with your bad self." A smirk makes his way onto his face.

"Huh?" She doesnt lower her gun at all, "DOnt tell me what to do, bub." It was obvious she had no idea what he meant.

Axl leaned into the window. "I said," his voice lowers and smirk grows. "Shoot me." To be honest, if he was wrong, it wouldn't matter. Either way he'd be satisfied.

"And why would I do that?" SHe lowers her gun slightly but was still on edge.

Axl chuckles and leans back. "Nevermind." He feel his shoe loosen. "Well see ya!" He continues down the ladder seeing that only a few zombies were near. That's funny there were more earlier….

AIm raises her gun again as he gets nearer, "Stay where you are!"

"Mhmm." He stops, looks to her and pretends to think about it. "How about no?" He continues down the ladder.

"Im warning you! Stop right there!" Aim barks but she hesitates slightly.

He can hear the hesitation in her voice, and yet, he stops and looks at her, eyes softening for just a split second before returning to their harsh state. "And why should I?"

"You're another human! I can't trust anyone! Get back!"

"No one can trust anyone these days." He sighs looking to the wall behind the ladder. "Look, I'm going to leave through the alleyway." He looks at her. "And then you can continue on by your happy, little, lonesome self? Deal?"

"You can't go down there! You'll die!" She had heard the rest of the crowd of zombies on the first floor of the apartment building.

"I'm pretty fast." He knew he couldn't survive, not alone at least, but every bone in his body ached to get away from her. "Even if I do, I guess it sucks to be me."

Aim stands up, dropping the sniper to her side, "We've lost to many humans to the plague."

Axl waits a second. Don't do this. He looks to her. "There's a better view of the city on the roof." He begins to climb up instead of down.

"Huh? Why did you bring up the city?" Either her mind was moving really slow because of the virus/air or this guy just wasn't making any sense.
