Jez nods to her before quickly slipping around the front of the building to see the screamer weakly thrashing. He waves his arms, hatchet in hand.
"Hey assbutt! " He hollered to the screamer "look over here. I taste amazing" he winks at the screamer
(Dusty, I'll let you play the screamer so you have something to do if that's alright!^^)

(sounds good! xD)
Despite its wounds, the screamer turned with surprising speed, its tiny eyes searching for the source of the shout. With a gurgling roar, it dragged itself forward, aiming to take a swipe at Jez as it got close.
"I got your back," Gus called, trotting along the roof to keep up with it. "Careful Jez! It's a tough one!"
Don't mind her, she's just grabbing every bread related food product, completely glazing past the candy. She's just eating man, she's so hungry and she hasn't had anything but stale bread and maybe some water since she's seen people last.
(She's adorable I love her XD)
Jez tries to duck out of the way but his forearm got caught in its line of fire, slashing a good few layers of skin.
Luckily it was his left arm, so while he was in agoanizing pain, the adrenaline pumping through his chest dulled the pain for a few seconds as he took a swing at its neck, slicing the leathery skin open with the blade.
(lol yeah she's great xD I gotta go to bed now, see y'all tomorrow!)
The screamer's angry cry was cut off abruptly. It fell, writhing and struggling to strike one more time, but it had been wounded too grievously and at last it subsided into a motionless heap. A quickly spreading red stain covered the concrete beneath it.
Gus was already coming down the ladder. "Awright, we done it! That was like somethin' from a movie!" He dropped the last few feet and went over to Jez, trying to catch his breath. "You okay? Yow, that thing really took a chunk outta you. C'mon inside, we can stop that alarm and patch you up a bit."
(Lol I'm glad you guys love my bb girl^^)
She's still getting food and had made a huddle of food where she was sitting inbetween the stalls, if your lucky she might doze off from all the food intake and get drozy dozing off, she's definitely in that range, just currently eating and getting full, and then ya know dozing off.
(I have busy things tomorrow so i did this so y'all could just pick her up and you wouldn't have to wait for me lol)
(Oh thank you I appreciate that! Have fun with your busy day tomorrow lol.)
(See ya Dusty ♡)
Jez dropped the hachet and stares at the heap on the ground, its black-red blood staining his shirt as it had splattered on it when he ran the hatchet through its throat.
Vision blurry and his knees wobbly, he felt like he would fall down to his knees that second.
He swallowed hard, his throat burning, before looking down to his shirt as the blood burned through the fabric like acid once again.
He quickly slips off his shirt and used a not blood splattered part to wipe off his skin, though the blood already burning small dots of hit skin and turning them into an ashy black.
Jez wraps the shirt around his arm tightly,, his face already telling you how much pain he was in as he did so.
"Gimme a second" he huffs, leaning his forehead on Gus' shoulder, trying to keep his balance.

(Elodie is about 5'6 or 5'6 and a half-)
Elodie sighed before turning back to the window, her shoulders and back stiff as she exhaled shakily and spoke.
"I didn't mean to hurt your feelings I was just worried is all…you're the first person I've seen in months, I don't want you to die from some random illness." She expressed, the corners of her mouth turning downwards with a frown.
She finally worked up enough courage to turn back to Jesse, and when she did her eyes were glossy with fear and sadness, two emotions she knew all to well.
"Woah–" Gus caught Jez in surprise, his excitement vanishing. His gaze went from the blood, to the smoking cloth, to the tiny burns on Jez's skin, then to the puddle of blood almost at their feet. He'd known the dangers of touching it for some time, but he usually battled the monsters from a distance, and had forgotten the risk—a fact which he cursed himself for now. "C'mon Jez. Ain't no place to rest out here." Carefully he pulled Jez's good arm over his shoulder and supported him inside, into their backroom hideout. Hopefully the floor was slanted enough that the blood wouldn't follow.
Sitting Jez down against the wall, Gus handed him some water, then started digging around in search of medical supplies. "I'm sorry Jez, I dunno what th' hell I was thinkin'. Is it real bad?"
(Aww Gus <3)
(I love him omg TT^TT)
Jez walked inside with him, his breathing raspy and short as he slid down to the floor, his back against the wall.
He shakes his head, his eyes still closed "no you're alright. This is the life we're in now. No need to apologize for something that wasn't even your faukt" hensays with a weak chuckle
"It's alright I'm not gonna die. But uh" he looks downnat his now shaky arm "we can stitch this up right?" He asks in a half joking tone.

Jesse turns to her, still glaring,
shit she's crying
She keeps her arms crossed and her expression hard and mean as she looked down to her.
"You don't belong in this world" she states "how the hell did you make it this far?"
Jasper just kinda snoozing, shes curled up in a slightly shivering ball in the middle of food items and empty wrappers, holding her knees close to her chest, naturally, she wouldn't be seen unless you were to go in the specific isle that she is in since she's rather small and wouldn't be spotted unless you're really looking through the window, she sniffled slightly in her sleep.
Elodie widens her eyes in response then turns away, she wipes her face, and when she turns back to Jesse a hard and cold look on her face, she stepped towards Jesse, their faces a foot apart.
"listen." She said pushing her index finger into Jesse's chest, her eyebrows scrunched in fury.
"I don't know why my parents had a child if they planned on committing suicide together, I don't know why i'm not dead yet, but what i do know is im not going to let you treat me like that, just like everyone else in my fucking past"
she said, the tears continuing to stream down her cheeks.
(I ship it)
Her expression was soft but only only a second..
Jesse's eyes widened and her expression went stone hard once again as her hand went to Elodies wrist, holding it tight and hard.
"I don't want your pity party. I was asking a question. If you dont wanna answer fine" she growls, her German accent thicker than normal
"But do not give me your story as if I would care." She snaps, her voice low and scratchy
(I'm sorry she's just-so mean rn. She'll warm up to her ;-;)
(ouch)

If you want her to interact with them you could have her wake up. I dont mind and I'm sure Dusty wouldn't either!
Elodie's bottom lip quivered, as the tear kept on coming.
She looked Jesse in the eyes, and her expression, her entire body softened, her eyes were glassy and wet, her face pink from anger, and her hair still a naughted mess.
"Sorry, I thought you were asking in a mean day." She said softly and quietly, turning her head away.

(i might, depends on how school goes)
Jesse's grip loosened around her wrist.
"Unless you've done something, I don't mean anything in a mean way towards you" she says, adding the last two words in a mumble,, dropping her wrist "remember that" she says, her voice still harsh but it always was. There was no sounding nice with her. With looking scary and sounding scary, no wonder Elodie got offended. Any sane person would.
Though no sane person would stand up to Jesse. And she admired the guts she had.
(No problem! Do what you would like!^^)
(Sorry I vanished there! Yes feel free to bring Jasper over to the boys if you like! Either way I'm sure they'll try to talk to her soon, Gus is just a bit more worried about Jez at the moment. ^^)
Gus gently pulled back the makeshift bandage and surveyed the damage. "Yep, I think we'll need to stitch you up a bit. I done it before, but all I got is fishin' line so hopefully that works." He found his home-made first aid kit and came back over, settling down cross-legged next to Jez. "Drink some o' that water, and then I need it to warsh up. This won't take long."
(You're all good ^^)
Jez gave him a greatfull smile "whatever you say doc" he jokes, taking the water and drinking a bit of it before setting it down for Gus to use it.
"Dont worry fishing line's fine. I've been stitched up with worse"
Jez looks down at his arm when Gus pulls the bandage back, grimacing in digust. No matter how many injuries he's had in his boxing career, none was nastier than this.
His skin split in two with so many layers already visible. With or without the blood.
Though he knew when they cleaned it up it'd look worse.
Gus whistled, pulling out a tin bowl and a bottle of water-purifying capsules. "Now that's gonna leave a scar, no matter how pretty I make th' stitches. Here." He handed Jez a package of disinfectant pads. "A few o' those should clean 'er up. I'll help you once I finish settin' up fer surgery." As he started purifying the water and laying out his tools, he remembered something. "Oh yeah, where's that kid? Is she okay?" In the chaos, he'd totally forgotten their original mission.
