"Listen, the reason I came down here was to tell you, the guy said point to Jess. "You were going the wrong way. About another 7 or 800 yards that way is about several blocks heavily infested with Zekes, we're talking like at least 100 if not more. Now you two are welcome to go on your own...or you can follow me," He said and Jessica arched an eyebrow behind her goggles. "Thanks, Good lookin' out but why?" She asked, She was bummed that Captiol Records was the way he'd mentioned so now she had no goal. So going with this guy would be alright, she figured. Aside from the fact, that she was tired of her own company. "Well see I scout every city I enter from above...up there."He said and pointed to the Hollywood sign, Jessica rose a hand to see it clearly, blocking the glare from the Sun. "I know where the safer pockets of the city are, we're talking the odd Zeke here and there as opposed to...well...a whole swarm." He said and Jessica nodded. She weighed her options. Go with theses guys, run the risk of being smelled but also having the chance to be around others, maybe survive a little longer, or go on alone and survive but run the risk of losing her fucking mind and blowing her own brains out. Yea...she was going with option 1.

"And I found sticking to the roof tops whenever possible leads to fewer chance encounters with the..." Just then, a Zomb creeped up behind him. "Look ou--" No sooner as she spoke the guy spun, had a big ass sword looking thing in his hand and sent in down the middle of the Zomb's head. "Damn...Vorhees." Jess quipped. She looked at her decorative tanto that wasn't really meant for combat. It made hers look like a fucking butter knife. "I call it a Combat Machete...it's lightweight, easy to swing with one arm, still produces the same amount of blunt force impact and the friction between this grip and my gloves practically glues things to my hand...made it myself." He said showing off a bit. Jessica scoffed some. "However...I'm goung this way...what you two ladies do is up to you." He said and started climbing up toward the roof of the boutique she'd been looking at. Jessica waiting for a moment, then she slid her blade into it's sheath and started after him. "Hey, Wait up." She said and began to climb as well.

She didn't know if the girl was coming with but she seemed capable enough. She seemed to think she had to authority to order people around so Zombs should be easy enough.

Once on the roof, Jessica stopped. "Hold up a sec," She asked him. Her shoes had finally spilt, the bricks had cut into her foot and it was time for the ones she'd picked up. She set down her gear, slide her goggles to the top of her head, revealing a pretty light brown face, a little pink where the goggles were set, with a deep brown almond shaped eyes, indicating her afro-asian heritage.

She cracked open her violin case and inside set a beautiful midnight black violin and on to top was her bow and a few viles of different things. It was a hybrid violin case/medical bag. She removed her shoes. Her dainty feet were blistered and bleeding. She grabbed a roll of bandages and a vile of green gunk. Somebody asked what it was. "It's Aloe, ground up and made into a salve." She said and she smoothed it over the cut on her foot. "It helps with cuts and burns." She said as she wrapped up her foot. She slipped on the shoes and found them a perfect fit. She stood up and winced. "Doesn't help with pain though. I'll deal with that once I find shelter." She said. She worked her ankles a bit, closed up her case and set everything on her back again. "Alright, Ready to go." She said. "Oh, I'm Jessica, by the way. Jess for short." she said and held out her hand.
