(Yesh pleesh. More of a gory thriller, as downright horror wouldn't be PG-13, and that's what we need to keep this RP at. We could save Petronella from the cowboy, is what I meant.)

(Okay, sounz good.)

Cash adjusts his backpack and follows Zoe and Aberdeen. He sidesteps Infected zombie carcases and swings his bat experimentally, readying for action.

Zoe decided to follow the road since she really didn't want to go in the fields again. Her knives were out and ready for action. Then they saw a horrific sight. The bodies of the little girl and the woman laid there in a pool of blood which was sure to attract zombies. She stopped so suddenly that Cash bumped into her which made her fall over.

"Sorry," Cash grabs Zoe's arm and pulls her to her feet. Then…then he sees what she saw. His breath catches, and his shoulders go limp.

(Abigail, you should control the cowboy for this scene, as he's trying to kill you.)

(i can't control villains.)

( Hes means you can act him out for this scene.or do you want someone else to do it?)

(My minions, act out THE VILLAIN!!!!!)

Cowboy grins. He backtracks in the direction of his latest kills, sure he's heard someone. From his hidden vantage point, he sees three teens, kids really, staring in horror at the mess he's made. He grins again. Why let innocent kids like this live to see more horror?

Zoe felt like she was being watched somewhere. She surveyed the area and her eyes rest on some bushes. She looks at it for awhile, then assure herself it's nothing, however couldn't shake the feeling something was watching her. She didn't dare go closer to the bodies. " Um Peter, what are we going to do?" SHe said out of the silence nervously.

"It's 'Cash,'" Cash absently corrects. "We can't leave them like this." He takes a step towards their dead companions. The woman's long brown hair is trailed in her own blood. The little girl, ever a reminder of Cash's youngest sister, stares up into the sky with open, dull eyes.

Zoe noticed her mistake. "Sorry." She stepped closer as soon as Cash said it was ok and the sight of the little girl wanted to make her cry. However, she had to be strong. She bent down and gently closed her eyes.

"Hey," Cash gently places a hand on her arm and turns her away from the bodies. "You keep watch, ok?" He swallows painfully, forcing himself to look at the bodies. "I'll take care of them." He takes his backpack off and sets it on the ground near Zoe's feet and leans his bat up against it. Then…then he goes to the bodies.

Zoe watched Peter, then had to turn away. It was too painful to watch. It reminded her of her cousin, Mary. That was… before it happened.A single tear rolled down her cheek and fell to the ground, to remind the world that, it was ok to cry sometimes. Something shook her out of her thoughts. Something was watching her, and it felt very evil. She turned around to make sure Peter was there, and in fact he finished burying the bodies. So she plucked two flowers from the road and gently placed them their graves.

(Not quite what I was planning for the bodies, but ok. I think we should wait for @ImNotCrazyImAFangirl . I have to go dissect a grasshopper anyway. I'll be back later.)
Cash smiles a little through his silent tears at the gesture. The flowers look too stark and beautiful against the dusty earth of the graves. He turns and grabs his backpack and bat, wanting to leave this bloodsoaked place as soon as possible.

Petronella saw a few adults. "Hey! Over here!"
