Re: Business As Usual
Hector put the woman down, in the empty parking spot,and thought on this for a moment before walking over to where Geoff was parked,
"I'm sorry to say, if this a movie, it isn't Rambo, or any other 'over-the-top' 'get-away-with-anything' action flick. No, in zombie movies people tend to get punished for doing stupid things, like say ramming an overturned vehicle that's spilling gas all over the place. It'll be just like that time in Night of the Living Dead where they're all nice and secure inside when they get the bright idea of tearing down their own barricades, going back out, running in several different directions, and lighting a few fires that can be seen for miles around. And I rather not be in the kind of movie where people are yelling at the screen 'DON'T DO THAT, YOU IDIOT!'" he ends again with thematic florish.
"So the only other option I see, besides you or I leaping over and distracting the horde, is trying to break into this other building making up the alley, as our diner is already filled with zed, hope it's 'uncontaminated', and make it to the other side. It'd be a little tricky though, likely involving breaking an upper story window and pushing someone suitably light, either Nephi or Jane, through, hoping there isn't already a horde up there waiting for him/her, and waiting for them to make it to the back door. It'll eat up a lot of time.......which we may not have." that last bit was said with a touch of dread to it, "Ummmmmm, you never quite told me the situation in the diner....... once they broke through the front door did they just stumble around, or did they go after you three? And are they now pounding through the backdoor?"
