Snippet #2130351

Lydia almost screamed from the shock when she heard the man, she looked at him, her heart racing. "It's you! From the roof!" she eventually whispered after catching her breath. Lydia stood up and cracked a brief smile, "How did you escape the roof?" she asked. Lydia shook her head, she didn't actually want an answer, all she needed was company. She peeked her head outside the alley onto the streets, far too many walkers to walk down the street openly. Lydia held her gun, gently gesturing the man to follow her. As she hunched over she gently walked down the street in a crouched manner. She took a sidewalk and tried any building she could for an unlocked door. By the time she got some length down the street she found a door into a clothes shop. A couple of walkers twisted their necks Lydia's way, limping towards her "God damnit..." she whispered, "Hurry, get inside" she said to the man who was behind her. She barged through the door and ran inside, gun at the ready.

The store was sufficently lit by the glass panels outside, so she could see most of the store. Lydia stayed crouched and brushed strands of hair off her face, pale with nerves. As the walkers outside picked up pace she found shelter near a rack of clothes at the back of the store, near a perfume stand. In order to cover up her and her newfound partners scent she sprayed a ton of perfume around the room, causing her to cough a lot. She slid down behind the clothes rack and ripped into her backpack, she took out a bottle of water, a can of tuna and a can opener. "Don't suppose you have a spoon do you?"
