Introduction
They are called 'zombies'. And they've risen to spread their infectious virus through any means nessicary. However, humans, as always have the vast upper hands in multipule ways. However, this doesnt make the zombies any less dangerous, or any less numerous.
First off, zombies are extremely unitelligent. They have basic knowledge, consisting of "Grab, Bite, Repeat". Their hand-eye coordination is poor, most not even being able to climb ladders, or stairs. And they are unable to restore any lost muscles or flesh in any way.
However, zombies, being the hunters, also have their advantages over us.
They are completely immune to pain. They feel nothing. No emotions weight their actions. No bullet can ever hurt their deadened nerves. They are almost impossible to stop. Their bodies can endure limb loss, mutilation, goring. They will seek their prey untill they can no longer move, or are dead. The only way to "Kill the Dead" is to damage solanum's fortress inside the human body: The brain. Only by damaging the brain can you stop these infection machines.
There is little hope for those without protection. The military has been called to defend the last bastion of purity: Washington, DC. The police are deployed their SWAT teams as well. Now, the citizens of the United States dont feel so equal anymore.
To ensure their survival, one must gather what weapons they can, and head to the quarentine zone at DC. They will endure many hardships, and meet many along the way, but not all will make the trecherous journey.

"Now that's what I call killing two birds with one stone," Archer said, as he peered at the others. He could see the wave of zombies the others were trying to keep back. He knew it wasn't going to be long before they'd have to head for the vehicles and get out. He readied himself to run like hell the moment the group leader gave the word.

"Alright everyone. Move at a stead pace to the car. Not to fast, not too slow. But don't fall behind. Try to stay in formation, but don't make it a priority. As long as we all get back to the vehicles, that's all we need to worry about. Move!" He shouted, his commanding voice slightly echoing.
He began to move at a quick pace, his bent legs shuffling across the cement as he moved. It wasnt long before the group was faced with more than a few zombies. Kline lifted the shotgun to his shoulder, his eyes gazing down the irons of the barrel before pulling the trigger. The shotgun let out a fierce thunderclap, knocking the zombie backwards, the spray blowing a few clear holes in the zombie head. Foxchild racked the lever of his shotgun again, firing in the same direction. A few of the zombies were stopped, stumbling and even tumbling as the were hit with the buckshot. Again, the mechanical 'chiikoo' filled the air as Kline again racked the shotgun.
The group was moving pace with him, and the plan seemed to be working quite well. They had short and medium ranges covered. Zombies couldnt get near the group without being shotgunned back, or picked off with rifle fire.
Kline saw a zombie moving at a startling fast paced, and towards the group. He waited for the zombie to get at least 15 feet before blasting him with the shotgun. The zombie was knocked backwards, even though the shot wasnt a headshot. He dashed a small bit ahead of the group, to where the zombie was now squirming, trying to regain his footing. Kline flipped his shotgun around, and in a massive baseball bat styled swing, brought the stock of his shotgun aside from the zombie's skull. It made a sickening crack, and the zombie slumped down, making no further movements. His adreniline was pumping now. His heart was racing, and his mind was ahead of him by miles.
He racked his shotgun, and waited for the group before they moved to their own vehicles. "Okay! Everyone get in a car. If there isnt room in anyone else's vehicle, you can get in the back of my truck. No arguing, no fighting. NO TIME TO WASTE! Go, go GO!" He said demandingly, turning around to make sure there wasnt any flesheaters dangerously close to them. Luckily, there werent...

“Samuel! You can ride in my Jeep. Just knock the stuff on the passenger seat to the floor and hop in,” Kyle said as he wiped the teardrop from his face and got in and started his Jeep.

He then noticed the enviorment....darkness was settling in around them. It was nearing winter months, too, so it was darkening around seven-thirty. They needed to find a place to hole up for the night. Even if it was their caravan of cars, they needed a system of order. He looked over to DJ with a smile.
These kids actually know what they're doing. He thought to himself.
The drive proceeded to be quiet, the only sound echoing the roads was the groups vehicles. He saw something in the distance...it was a small town. It was probably just a groups of fast food restaraunts, or something as the such. He looked around the buildings. There was one stuck out from the rest: It was multi-story, probably a motel; maybe four stories.
Foxchild jammed his arm out the window, jerking his thumb in the direction of the motel, hoping the other drivers could see it. He slowed down, and turned into the parking lot of the building. He parked his truck sloppily, before pushing his door open, and turning sidways, waiting for the other drivers. Once they had pulled in around him, he looked to each one, in the fading light of day.
"Alright. Let's not fool ourselves. We'll need rest soon, and sleeping on the go isnt exactly a great idea. I suggest we hold out on the top floor of this place." He stated boldly. It instilled a commander like-feel inside of him. He didn't want to be some top dog general yelling orders. He wanted to hear what the others had to say about this plan.

He caught up with the group just in time to enter the hotel. He pulled his pistol and prepared to sweep the building.

"That's fine, but I have a car!"
Running around the corner of a building, he approached his Lexus before grabbing the door handle and swinging it wide open. Sitting down quickly and slamming the door shut behind him, he stuck the key in the ignition.
"Sorry about that Baxter," Sam said as he rubbed the beagle's head with his hand, the other on the steering wheel. Stepping on the pedal, his car backed up quickly into the main road, it hitting a body as it went. "Whoops," Sam said as he looked back seeing a zombie staggering back to it's feet. Throwing the car into forward, he stepped on the pedal, and his car zoomed forward after the others.
Archer eased his grip on the steering wheel now that the zombie population was left far behind.
"Well Baxter, looks like we made it out of that one. And we seem to have found some friends too," He said as he looked at his dog. "Yep, survivors, just like us. Maybe we'll end up banding together and creating a whole new community when this crisis is finally gone," He said, his eyes on the road ahead of him.
It was quiet around Archer, save for the hum of the engine as the car drove over the road. After a while, his steady whistling filled the air, as his beagle cocked it's head at him. Seeing the Indian man's hand sticking out of the truck and waving, he looked towards the indicated direction seeing a town. He slowed down as they approached what looked like a hotel. He turned his car into another parking lane besides the truck before turning the engine off, and leaned back in his seat for a brief moment.
Getting out of the car, he stood on the pavement listening to the man talk. After a bit, Samuel said, "Sounds fine to me. We should be able to hold the fort." He looked towards his car, before turning back. "I don't suppose you guys have room for another one up there. He might get awfully lonely in the car," He said, indicating the dog's head in the back window.

He walked too the hotel doorway, pressing his ear to the door. No sound. Always a bad sign. He motioned for the rest of the group.
"Everyone get ready. We're going to do this loudly, seeing as how out weapons aren't silenced. I'll go in first, and be crouching. Somone behind me will be standing and shooting. But...we need to find a way not to be caught in the narrow halls of the motel. Perhaps split up into two groups: A croucher, a standie, and a rear guard."
He waited for everyone to get ready, whatever respective weapons they needed.

Re: [OOC] Survival Revival
I'd really love to join this rp and my character of choice (a pregnant woman) is definitely civilian. I'm not sure if you're looking to have that kind of situation in your rp, but I've been looking for something exactly like this for a while and this was the character I had in mind.
Seeing as Argie (Kyle) is about to head into town, this wouldn't be a bad time to introduce another character (I think).
Also, if you chose to allow me in, which of the characters are still active? I'd just like to know.
Anyway, I'll go ahead and write up my character bio, but I'll wait until I've got your okay to submit it Vio-Lance.
Oh, and I have only ever heard of the Zombie Survival Guide (Although I'm honestly not sure if it was the /Max Brooks/ version), but I have read a decent amount of other zombie 'resources'. I'll be sure to google it though, incase there's anything online?
Thanks for the time of day,
LittleSun
