Pollux fired a warning shot off to the side. He was anxious, particularly at the thought that perhaps it was an uninfected person who would want to harm them.

She slowly stood up, gripping the gun tightly. An exact copy of Aberdeen no doubt shocked them, but Lila didn’t know that. She didn’t know her sister was dead.

"Aberdeen?" Pollux cried out, "Wait… that's not you."

“Where is she?” Lila asked, gun almost raised. Their voices were different, but besides that, the only way to tell them apart were their eyes. Lila’s were a lighter shade of brown, almost dusty.

"I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but she was killed. By a survivor. I wasn't there to do anything, I just got word of her death. He almost killed all of us," Pollux replied hastily and defensively. He lowered his gun all the way.

She froze. …she was killed. Was killed. She was killed. Aberdeen is dead.
Impossible.
“Liar,” she said, eyes blazing. The gun was lifted all the way, pointed right at him. “What did you do to her?”

Pollux dropped his own gun to show his peaceful intentions. "Do you want to see the body of the man who killed her? The man who almost killed me? We may not have been able to save her, but we got revenge." He showed her his injured arm, which was wrapped with bloody bandages and stiff and difficult to move. "This man was crazy, and almost everyone with us was killed."

Peyton slowly shifted towards the people, they didn't seem infected or hostile. But one could never be too careful.

I don’t want revenge. I want Aberdeen. The words echoed in her head, but she didn’t say anything. Instead, she slowly lowered the gun and stood there numbly, uncertain what to do. She had been betting her entire survival on the hopes of seeing her twin again. With her gone, she didn’t know what to do.

//gtg now, feel free to drag her along

( I thought his name was Cash?)

(It is. I accidentally wrote in the name of another RP character…..right after I reminded everyone to be more careful with their updates. XP)

Cash holds his bat so he's ready, but not in a way that is threatening. He notices another Uninfected a ways away (Peyton). He points her out to the others. "Guys, look. Another one."

Pollux turned his gaze where Cash indicated. He squinted his eyes at the young woman standing there. "I know you from somewhere."

Peyton froze at being noticed she pulled out her taser and aimed it at the other survivors, "Stay back! I know how to use this!"

"Yeah, yeah," Pollux muttered, bending over to pick his gun up off the ground, "That taser you've got? That's child's play." He snapped his weapon back into its holster, then held his empty hands up to once again show his intentions to be peaceful.

(How would Bunny come in?)

(I have another character I made whom I haven't used yet. Maybe they're together for now and come in contact with the main group soon?)

Peyton on instinct fired the taser at him. She squealed, "Sorry!"

(How would Bunny come in?)

(I have another character I made whom I haven't used yet. Maybe they're together for now and come in contact with the main group soon?)

(Sure! How will we start with them?)

Peyton's aim had been dead on, and Pollux was hit. It didn't do much harm. He simply lost control of his muscles for a few moments and thus fell to the ground, but he was alright. Slightly angry, but alright. As soon as he was in control again, he sat up and sighed in annoyance.
(Idk, maybe they're wherever the main group is heading next?)

Peyton ran over to Pollux, "I am so so sorry! It was instinct and I really didn't mean to. The whole gun thing scared me!"

"I know, I know. I'm fine." Pollux waved his hand. "You've got good aim, though. I'll give you that much credit. But that thing sure won't kill zombies as easily as a lethal weapon."

"I know," Peyton sighed looking at her taser, "But it's the only thing I can find. It's sad really."

Pollux mostly ignored what Peyton said and looked into her eyes. "I do know you, don't I? From university? You were in my class, also on the med track?"

(I can't actually find that character's template, little help?)

(My character? She's waaaaaay back. I'll find it and paste it here.)

"Yeah," Peyton studied him, "Pollux? That's your name right?"

Name: Cordelia Mason
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Appearance: Dirty blonde hair, dark green eyes, light skin with a few freckles, 5'3
Personality: Quiet and shy, hard to talk to sometimes, caring, skittish
Occupation before the Plague: High school
Family: Leo, brother (but this might change, since his RPer hasn't been active)
Weapon(s): Not preferred, but she literally carries around kitchen knives because that's what she could find

"Yeah," Peyton studied him, "Pollux? That's your name right?"

"It is. So you are Peyton. I guess we look a little different all roughed up. I'm glad to have found someone I know." Pollux slowly got to his feet.

Peyton smiled, "It really is great. I was worried everyone I knew was either dead, gone, or infected. Well, that's partially true."

"Your family?" Pollux asked solemnly, feeling immensely sorry for his classmate. "I'm not even sure what happened to mine. They live two-hundred miles away from college, and I've lost contact."

Peyton nodded small tears forming in her eyes, "Yeah. I found out after the Plague hit. My mom and dad got infected and my younger sister is missing."
