Bye.
Bye Sparky.
*smiles*
Hi Eve.
*then frowns*
I noticed it's gotten really quiet here since... well, since a while ago...
It's probably cause a lot of people are reading or doing something, but still... I guess there hasn't been much to say, huh?
...I remember Nix was freaking out when no one was talking... I read the past comments.
Guess so
Okay, back fully now.
Is mist here?
He's sorta...
Finishing up the Hunger Games, I think.
Ah. Okay. *sneaks behind mist without making any noise and reads over his shoulder*
I like your picture, by the way.
Mine? Thanks.
I found it on the internet by searching 'lavender; on goggle images. :P
Oh. Cool.
Kíłł ëvęrÿthîńg.
Yay! *hugs mist*
*is reading 'The Sacrifice' comicfrom Left 4 Dead*
Oh my God Zoey...
*hits something*
*pauses*
Better. Hi!
*hugs back*
*smiles*
*sees sparky* Sorry for dissing Bill the other day.
Wait, that was yesterday...
*shrugs*
It's okay.
Don't diss Zoey.
I actually have a solid argument for her...
*shakes head*
That poor girl...
Who eats bananas?
Not me.
I don't even know who that is.
Mist, I can't make the video today either. *is frustrated*
Oops. :P
I mean the bananas. heh
*tosses Lavender a regular banana*
Yay! *takes banana and-*
You know what? I think I'm gonna have a real one. Brb. :P
Aw. Oh well. You'll find time. :)
*smiles proudly* I just made someone eat a banana without even suggesting it.
Zath, do you want to know what happens?
Back!
*is eating a real banana*
Does she kiss the Witch?
I hope so. Otherwise I'm just gonna make it when everyone's home and they'll all think I'm mad. :)
But we all know I'm not.
Hi lav
Hi Eve. :)
Course you're not mad Eve. :)
I used to hate bananas. Now I love them. :)
*gasp*
Me too!
Was that...sarcasm?
I. AM. NOT. MAD.
Oogly boogly woogly!!!!!
It's funny cause the Jungle Book movie made me start liking them. The monkeys. :P
Yeah, I'm weird.
We must be sisters! Snap!!!
*high fives lav*
I used to do that all the time.
*laughs*
Sisters who never even met! :P
I love how they're so portable.
A portable bananana. :)
No Zath, that was just a joke.
She learns that she's a Carrier, which means that she (along with Francis, Bill and Louis) has the virus, but no symptoms. They get the gene from their dads.
Two days after the first infection, her parents are having a fight when a zombie walks in and attacks her mum. Her dad shoots the zombie andZoeyrund to get help. Whenshegets back she sees her mum attacking her dad and her dad is forced to shoot her mum.
But he's been bitten.
So they have this really sentimental moment that finishes with Zoey having to shoot him.
Except he's got the Carrier gene.
Portable banana. *laughs*
Yup. They're portable all right! Even come in pocket size! :P
Lav, where in america do you live?
California. Why?
Ah. Okay.
So this is a comic?
*shrugs* Just asking.
Okay then. :)
Yeah.
There's a special mod in the game called The Sacrifice, where one of the survivors has to die in order for you to progress.
It's the comic version, and it has each of them having a flash back to the beginning of the virus.
So are you getting the game then, Sparky?
If I have to buy it myself, I WILL have this game before Good Friday.
Just watch.
Good Friday...mass...ugh.
I can't. But I'll be reading the comments for the time when you blow up with excitement of getting it.
Good Friday- mum being out for the entire day.
Me- BY MYSELF WITH LAPTOP. ALL. DAY.
Wednesday/Thursday next week will be the last day that I get to say
I AM KING HEROD!!!
Because I won't be King Herod anymore. I will have performed the Passion Play on Thursday, everyone will throw roses and the next year I'll be at high school. So I won't get to be King Herod again.
EVERLY CAN GO **** A TREE!
Correction:
EVERLY CAN GO **** MORA!
*looks at Sparky*
*backs away slowly*
I think I should go now. I want to get an early sleep tonight. Bye guys!
*waves*
Bye lav!
Bye Lav!
*laughs at Eve*
Maybe I'll send you the link to this.

*looks at coke*
I've already had three glasses of you since I've gotten home, I'm not getting drunk until the holidays.
*glares at it*
You can't get drunk on coke.
Or caaaan yoooooou?! *waves hands stupidly*
I can in any case. And Fish, and Lucas.
Except that it's like a temporary form of extreme high-ness.
And I don't remember anything I did next morning while drunk (I call it drunk), so it really is.
Kind of.
Does anyone want to read the next bit of my L4D fanfic?
Sure.
Huh. That's interesting. Say the alphabet backwardzian.
Sparky, if I read that comic, it'll totally ruin my good attitude towards Left 4 Dead. If I see the word BLAM in a sentence...
Yeah, sure.
Walking through the withered remains of society, my gun hand is steady. My flashlight hand, however, is quivering violently. I pause, listening to my surroundings. I can hear sobbing. Witch. Almost panicked, I switch the light off. The sobbing continues. Good. I look towards the sound and see a crouched shape. I stop breathing and back up quietly. I back out of the alley and into the main street, two blocks away I hear an explosion and see light cast by fire. Right now, it is not of my concern. Still, I am hypnotised by it. That is, until a car flies into the air. Tank. I turn and run away from the wailing car alarms. My heart is racing. I concentrate on it’s rushed thumping. Ba-boom, ba-boom, ba-boom. I skid to a stop, throwing pebbles over the asphalt. I’m panting. I bend over to catch my breath when I hear a low growling. Shit. It’s a Hunter. I point my gun towards the growling. The Hunter pounces and I shoot at the bloodied blue hood. I’ve missed, because the Hunter crashes into me, (in the process I drop my gun) pins me and gets ready to rip me to shreds. I raise my arms by instinct and squeeze my eyes shut. The ground is vibrating softly. I’m not dead yet. I dare to open my eyes a crack just as the Tank smashes its fist into the Hunter, sending it flying through a second story window on the other side of the street. The Tank is raising its fists. Will being crushed be more or less painful than being ripped to shreds? The fist is coming down as something wraps itself around me and yanks me out from under the Tank. God! Now what!? A Smoker is standing on a nearby balcony. I feel my arms get pressed against my body. Stuck. I yell and kick, but the situation is just getting worse and worse. Wait. I hear gunshots.
‘Hey!’ a gruff voice shouts. I turn my head as I lift off the ground. The man who yelled is wearing a biker vest. He shoots the Smoker in the head and runs up to me. I hit the ground and he grabs my wrist.
‘Run and gun!’ He yells, hands me an Assault rifle and pulls another one off of his back. ‘Now!’ he grabs my wrist again and pulls me away from the Tank. I stumble to my feet and turn, so I’m facing the Tank and sprinting backwards. I shoot at it. An old man backs out of an alley and throws a pipe bomb. Two people, a black man and a girl run out of the alley. The girl sees the Tank, lights a Molotov and throws it.
‘Fire in the hole!’ she shouts. The Molotov explodes on the Tanks face, making it roar. The biker grabs my shoulder.
‘Forget the gun, just run!’ The five of us sprint towards a set of ladders with balconies on the side of a building. The black man reaches it first and has his foot on the second rung when a shrill scream fills the air. The girl shrieks as a Hunter lands on her. The black man is shooting at the Hunter from the first balcony.
‘You two, up!’ the old man orders. I hesitate. The biker grabs my wrist again and launches me into the ladder. I scramble up the ladder without a second thought. I duck behind the black man and leap into the next ladder, which I practically fly up. I sprint to the third one, climb up and help the others onto the roof. The girl is limping slightly but otherwise seems okay. The black man opens a door.
Must go. Brother wants to get smashed in handball again. Be back soon.
‘And just in here-‘ He closes the door quickly and leans his back against it. ‘Lets not go down there.’ The biker rolls his eyes. The old man pulls a cigarette butt out of his mouth, throws it on the ground, steps on it, pulls out a new cigarette and lights it. He then sits down and looks at me.
‘Who are you?’ he grunts.
‘Me?’ I say. I haven’t said anything for so long that my voice sounds hoarse and unfamiliar. He nods.
‘Stephanie.’ I croak. I clear my throat. ‘Call me Steph.’ Much better. I sound normal now. He nods again.
‘Bill. I hope you’re used to staring death in the face every five minutes, because that’s life as we know it now.’ He says. Whoa, downer much?
‘I’m Louis.’ the black man says, smiling.
‘Zoey.’ the girl says. She sits down and starts bandaging herself. The biker holds his hand out.
‘The name’s Francis.’ I reach out and he shakes my hand vigorously. ‘So, Steph, how’s your day been?’ he asks. I think for a moment.
‘Well, in the last twenty minutes I’ve nearly stepped on a Witch, been pounced on by a Hunter, crushed by a Tank and swallowed by a Smoker. How has my day been? Oh, now I remember. It sucked.’
‘Better get used to it, kid.’
‘I am used to it. Did I thank you for saving my life back there?’
‘No.’
‘Good. Maybe I can surprise you sometime.’
‘Glad to see someone else here has a sense of humour.’ We laugh and Louis strolls up to us.
‘You guys seen to be having a good time. Care to share the joke?’ he says cheerfully. I look him up and down.
‘Is he always this… Chipper after a near death situation?’
‘Yes.’
‘That’s a shame.’
‘You think so too?’ we laugh again and Louis tried to join in until Francis and I collectively scowl at him.
‘I’ll just leave you guys to it then.’ He says, his hands raised in defence. Zoey stands up with a bandage wrapped around her left calf.
‘So, Steph, how have you managed to survive so long on your own?’ she asks.
‘With great difficulty.’
‘That’s how everything occurs nowadays.’ Bill murmurs. Zoey yawns. Bill looks up at the moon.
‘Time to turn in. Louis, you seem spry, take the first watch. Francis second and I’ll do last.’ Bill says. Zoey smiles and lies down. I do the same. For a few seconds I think that trying to fall asleep is futile but then my eyelids droop.
My eyes open. Day. Morning. I hear a groan and sit up. Zoey is clutching her stomach. Phew.
‘How long is it since we last ate?’ she groans. Louis laughs.
‘I can’t remember!’ He chuckles. Bill nods.
‘Okay kids, time to go shopping. Steph, this is your test. If you can’t keep up, you’re going to be left behind.’ He says decisively. I gulp quietly.
‘And by shopping,’ Francis says, cocking his rifle, ‘He means looting.’ I smile.
‘This is going to be fun.’
Francis, Bill, Louis and Zoey all lean over the edge of the roof. I join them. Bill is pointing at a building.
‘That’s the place. We go down, get food, and come right back.’ He says. I load a shotgun and grin across the roof at Francis. I glance at Zoey getting ready and she tosses me a med-kit.
‘Thanks.’
‘Yeah, lets just hope you won’t need it.’ she says in return. I open the kit and look at what’s inside. Damn, I could’ve used one of these… A few minutes later I’m sliding down the ladder. I hit the ground and face the street. Three Infected are running at me. I shoot the first two and Louis picks off the third. I grunt in appreciation. He shrugs.
‘We’ve got to stick together in a zombie’s world, right?’
‘They’re vampires.’ Francis mutters.
‘Zombies.’ Zoey, Bill and Louis say simultaneously.
Aw. Bye mist.
Cool, Sparky. :)
Thanks Eve.
Dadadadum!
Gotta go, practice the trombone!
BYE!

*hides for some reason*
Hi!
Zath, Alfred just told me, Left 4 Dead 2 is where you can multiplayer as zombies.
Alfred!
Where did everyone go?
here
*shakes head at Alfred*
They can't read your mind, moron.
...AND STOP YELLING HORSESH*T AT YOUR MONITOR!
Ahahahaha! I see what you did there ;D nicee
and hush up! I hate things!
Sparky... do you count me as a friend?
*grins*
So that's how you're gonna play.
Kill all sons o' b*tches, that's my official instructions.
I need to go!
Dinner!
Bye!
Bye, Sparky!
*hides again*
*looks around*
Where DID Eve go...?
Bye Sparky...
i'll take that as a no
Oh, okay.
...
*hides again*
Ah, there it is. Took a fair bit of comment space to get it out of you, didn't it? :D
Now why are you hiding?
It did.
The hiding? No idea. *steps out of bushes*
do... do you guys count me as a friend?
Of course, Nix.
*frowns at Mist*
Yeah, nix, I do.
I'm just glad you said yes, Eve. I'd look even stupider around here. *grins*
okay....
i just get the feeling that people don't like me very much
*smiles then stops*
The way Sparky was talking...did she know you were gonna ask me out?
*raises eyebrow at Nix* if I didn't like you very much, I wouldn't spend my day's strength throwing ovens at you. That's a compliment.
Nix, you're my friend and have been ever since I got here. 'Nuff said.
She probably guessed I was going to, but no, she didn't actually know.
uh... what do you do to people that you don't like?
Oh. Okay. Anyone else know? Or was it just you and your head?
*thinks* Do I ask too many questions?
Dammit, that's a question.
People I don't like? I'm polite to them, sure, but I dont go out of my way to pay attention to them.
Sometimes I can be a real b*tch...*sighs*
*looks at Eve*
I'm sure that's not true...
And no, no one else knew.
Nix? It depends who they are.
500 words exactly in a 500 word amximum story
*maximum
*thinks deeply*
What are you thinking about?
back to chapter 5
Okay.
*waits for Eve to respond*
*sighs again* I don't like the idea of having hurt someone's feelings. I don't want to have done that to someone I care about. But sometimes...sometimes I just feel like I have. Like I HAVE hurt someone. *looks at Mist and Nix* I want you to be completely and utterly honest. Have I ever hurt you?
...Once.
No, twice...
*looks at Mist sadly* When?
But both were unintentional. The second time hit me really hard but you didn't mean it...
no times that come to memory
Maybe you have, but if you did, it wasn't hurtful enough worth remembering. I doubt that you did
*bits hand*
Tell me about both times.
you know there's a e in bites
Well, the first time was just when you go scared and left...Which doesn't matter anymore.
The second was when I made that picture of Derek saying hi to you and when you found out that it was something I made.
...That hurt...but as I said...
...damn...it...
Don't. Please don't, that just makes ME feel bad...
*frowns*
No offence or anything, but wasn't the second one technally your fault Mist? Not that im blamming you, im just sayign that it was more your fault then Eve's
"And there I was...checking every page of Derek's blog.
You sure know how to make a girl happy, Mist."
Yes, Nix. That was my fault.
*shakes head* No. No, I needed you to tell me that. Did that really hurt? I only meant it like...I was joking, i liked it...I'm sorry.
I know.
*hugs her*
I know. We've been through all this. I was taking everything far too seriously at that time...
That was when I was really joking, Mist. Argh, I thought you knew I was joking. *bites lip* I was actually laughing the whole time.
I didn't know you were joking, but you did say it afterwards.
I think I left for half an hour or something...
*hugs back* still very sorrry.
And nix, it wasn't mists fault. It was mine. I should have put more smiley faces.
*nods*
Smiley faces are the best medicene
*remembers* yeah, you did leave. *groans* Sorrrrrrrrry!
