What Rain said, ^^ we'll miss you. )) "But Sawyer and I can't drive." Opal pointed out, seeing Sawyer's hesitation. There was no way she could step up to fill the authority role, but maybe she could help lay out the issue into words. "Okay, so we need to find a way to rescue Seth and Charlie without driving. Um...and I guess we need to get some more supplies too, after that." "I'll be fine here, with these two." Reese put in, leaning back and beginning to re-tie her ponytail. Now might seem like an odd time, but it had come loose and was far too easy to grab like this. Seth's eyes squinted open slightly, his whole body was tense and his wrists were already bloody. On closer inspection, one would see that a cold sweat had broken out on his forehead, and his skin was even paler than usual, but he still managed to **** a shaky smirk as he struggled to his feet. "What, already? Terrific. I'm starved." He lied, as for the first time in two months the thought of eating made him feel queasy. Charlie had already stood up, though he was eyeing Seth with some concern. "What are you going to do with us?" He asked Colt, mostly to keep the other man talking. Sawyer nodded. "How about you two stay and help Ryker and Lacey?" she said at last. "I'll try and walk to town." "You're hostages. You'll be kept secure for 72 hours, and if your friends haven't showed up by then, we'll kill you." said Colt simply, dragging Seth to his feet and pulling him towards the building. Another man stepped up to grab Charlie.

A small crease appeared between Opal's eyebrows, but she nodded in agreement. "Okay, if you're sure." She said simply, reaching up as she did so to adjust the way her hair sat over her right ear.
"I don't need to tell you to be careful." Reese glanced up from her now-stable patients, giving Sawyer a quick, searching look. "If you're not back by the time these two can walk, Ryker will probably want to follow you."
Charlie frowned, glancing at the man but not resisting him. That would only make things worse. "Look, just give our people some time. I'm sure we can resolve this peacefully." He answered in a pacifying tone, still hoping to solve this somehow.
Seth grunted, though whether from pain or rebellion it was hard to tell. "Hey, hey, easy Muppet." He grunted, stumbling over his own feet and squinting at the sudden light. A sudden feeling of nausea rolled over him, and his difficulty in following was only sort of an act. "I get carsick, you know."

oh no D: what happened?)
Sawyer nodded seriously. "I'll be as quick as I can."
Lacey tried to sit up. "Hey..." she said weakly, looking in Reese's direction.
"Just get inside." said Colt, dragging Seth along roughly as he noticed the motorcycle. "Nero!" he called. "You in here?"

Reese's head snapped around, and she moved over to inspect the other woman. "Hey. How do you feel?" She asked, putting the back of her hand on Lacey's forehead to check for a fever.
Nero was in there, and she was something of a mess. All the way down the left side of the dark green shirt she was wearing was stained an even darker color with blood, as well as being torn as though by a knife. A rather thin square of pink cloth was taped securely over her left shoulder, and the table beside the chair she sat slumped in was littered with the clear remains of a makeshift surgical operation, complete with a lighter, a pair of tweezers and a bloodied bullet.
Seth whistled, cocking a grin at Colt. "Guess now we know what those shots were."

Colt shoved Seth aside with enough force to slam him into the opposite wall and rushed over to her, stopping within a few feet to give her space. "What the hell happened back there? Are you okay?"
"Just great." said Lacey sarcastically. Her forehead burned - she must have a high fever. "Med kit for Ryker." she slurred, as if desperate to get the words out. "Saw one inside." She looked up as Chip arrived, glad to see he made it out. "Where's Seth?" she asked, looking around with a frown as he didn't appear.

Seth grunted, smacking against the wall before bouncing back and falling into a heap on the floor. Temporarily stunned by the impact, a nearby tall, burly man used this as an opportunity to deftly slide the double chocolate granola bar from the dizzy prisoner's pocket and into his own.
Nero's eyes flickered open, and the muzzle of her rifle was pressed against Colt's ribs before she was even fully conscious. Then she relaxed, and let the slide away. "Colt." She said, glancing at Seth and Charlie with raised eyebrows for a half-second before turning again to her leader. "They should be on their way but I didn't see Ben. It's not unlikely that he already cut his losses and ran." She shook her head, trying to make the buzzing in her ears go away. "What's your blood type?"
"Med kit for you." Reese contradicted, moving to rise, but Opal had already returned with the object triumphantly swinging in her hand. She glanced up, narrowing her eyes at Chip. "What happened?"

"A positive, but we've got others.." said Colt. "You need blood?"
Sawyer walked briskly along the path, glancing behind her occasionally to check if she was being tailed.

"I'm O negative." Nero replied, fighting the nausea and exhaustion she knew were the result of blood loss. Oh negative happened to be pretty much the worst kind of blood to have, unless someone in an enemy group was dying, in which case you could buy your survival. She winced, biting her lip to stop herself from crying out. There hadn't been any pain killers in the meager first aid kit she'd found.
"Great. Okay." Reese frowned, trying to think. "That shouldn't effect us right now, Sawyer's taking care of it. Look, Chip?" She eyes the other man, deciding she had no choice but to trust him. "Check on Ryker, make sure he's still breathing."
Along the side of the road, underneath an enormous oak tree, a figure sprawled out in the grass became visible. It was clearly human, with emo-style black hair draped casually over the right side of its face without obscuring its vision. It was stretched out on a thick blanket spread over the snow, and crouched over a flat white object.

Sorry haven't been on much)
"[Swear]." said Colt. He turned to Seth and Charlie. "You two. Blood types. Now."
Ryker was no longer conscious, and his breathing was slow but he was still breathing.
Sawyer warily crossed the road to walk on the other side. Now wasn't the time to take chances.

"Z to the fourth." Seth answered, puckering his lips rebelliously. "What, you expect us to just bleed ourselves dry so your homicidal girlfriend can get well soon? What do we get out of it?"
Charlie tensed, but he didn't stop Seth. He didn't want anyone to die, but as much as he hated the human bargaining chip this might be the only way for a peaceful resolution.
After some careful work on Lacey, Reese moved over to inspect Chip's work. "You have any idea what you're doing?" She questioned bluntly, feeling Ryker's pulse.
The figure looked up, and his dark eyes caught the light like emeralds. "Hey." He called, sitting up and waving to Sawyer, in a gesture that was simultaneously a greeting and a show that he was unarmed.

Colt shoved him up against the wall again, putting a gun to his head. "You get to live." he said coldly. "And please don't lie. I'll be dragging both of you off to get tested right after you answer me."
Sawyer ignored him except to place her hand on her gun as she kept walking. Her heart thumped against her ribcage, maybe he'd just let her go...

"Hey." The man repeated, getting to his feet and folding what appeared to be a piece of paper. He slipped both it and a fancy, antique-like drawing utensil into a backpack, and after hastily folding his blanket as well he took a couple steps after Sawyer. "Excuse me, I wouldn't go that way if I were you. There's some pretty nasty people that way."
Seth grunted, his muscles tensing under Colt's powerful grip. "Lay off." He muttered, sliding his tongue over his teeth. "I'm B positive, alright? You can do your little test, it'll tell you." It was a lie: he actually couldn't remember what his blood type was, but the words slipped out despite his common sense to he had to stick with it.
"I'm O negative." Charlie admitted, extending his arm in defeat. "And I'm not offering to help because you have a gun to my head, I'm offering to prove I want peace."
Nero's eyes flickered open, she had drifted off again. Great, if she died someone else would have to go on food runs, and errands, and no one was very likely to be as good at those as she was. They'd probably forget to oil the motorcycle regularly, or get trapped in a supermarket and eaten.

"That's why I'm going this way." said Sawyer, continuing along the path without looking at him.
Without comment, Colt abandoned Seth and shoved Charlie into a chair, tying his hands. "Someone get Dr. Mendoza." he said, tightening the knots.

The blonde, burly man who had stolen Seth's candy bar spun around, rushing to obey. Charlie winced as the rope bit into his skin, but stayed quiet, gazing steadily up at Colt. Hopefully, he would remember this and let them go.
The man sped up, now definitely following the other survivor. "Look, I can tell they screwed you over, but going alone is a death wish. They won't hesitate, you have to know that if you know them."
Reese stared blankly back at him, eyebrows raised. "None of those things would help you here." She pointed out, sounding concerned.
