You lay on the ground in pain as you listen to the sounds of someone running toward you, you look over and see you rifle on the ground next to you. As you grab for it you hear a voice, "holy shit man are you ok?", you look over and see a male dressed in faded cargo pants and a slightly torn shirt running toward you. Behind him you saw five other humans all armed with an assortment of weapons, you noticed a female with a high caliber sniper rifle slung over her shoulder, " I'm sorry I thought that you were one of them" she says lowering her head. "Hey buddy are you ok?" the first male asked again, "I'll be ok" you say as you get to your feet. "My name is Johnny," says the male, "this is Amber" he says pointing to the female with the sniper rifle, "and that is Anthony, Henry, Zak, and Sasha" says Johnny pointing the the other four members of the group. "Christopher" you say holding out your hand for shaking, all of you talk about what happened and apologize are exchanged .
"Hey you can come with us if you want" says Zak, "where are you guys headed?" you ask, "well our plan was to head to the near by National Guard base and get some wheels and then head into Detroit, there''s supposedly refuge there" he says. "Sure you'll need help piloting any military vehicles we find" you say, "alright then we should get moving while there's still light out" says Anthony. The seven of you head out towards the base that Zak was talking about, after about four hours of walking you come across what was left of the base, all the fencing around the base was trampled and bent, just about every door on all the buildings was either broken down or torn up with claw marks. Every now and then you would find the charred remains of vehicles or discarded weapons, every where you looked you saw spent shell casings littering the ground. "I think its safe to say that we are the only ones here" says Henry, "at least the only humans here, remember those anthro creatures could still be here" says Sasha. "Alright lets find some transport and get out of here" says Johnny, the group heads toward the motor pool or rather what was left of it, most the the vehicles were missing, most likely used during the evacuation of the nearby cities, but a few of the Humvees were just broken, charred hulls, there were however three untouched, but one had flat tires and would be no good.
"Come on lets take these two" said Henry, "they won't do, their range is too small and they aren't armored" you say. "why do they need to be armored?" Henry asks, "because I've seen those anthros rip off the doors and pull out the occupants" you tell him. "Hey what about this?" says Amber you look at what she was pointing at, at the end of the motor pool sat a lone eight wheeled armored Stryker, "that'll do" you say. After a quick inspection you find that it only needed to be filled up and it was good to go, "try to find any gas can and fill them up too, I don't want to stop any more than we need to" says Johnny. You, Sasha, Zak, and Anthony head off into the main building to locate any gas cans, food, or weapons to take with you, the four of you come to a split in the hallway, "ok if my time in the military has taught me anything, its that most bases are the same, so weapons and ammo should be this way and food, water should be that way" you say. "I hate to say it, but we need to split up if we want to do this quickly" says Sasha, "ok then you two get the weapons and any ammo while Anthony and I get food and water" says Zak.
You and Sasha leave and head towards where you think the armory is, surprisingly the lights still worked inside which you liked, because the only think you hated more than dark corridors were dark corridors with anthros in them. As you walked down the hallway you saw more spent shells casings over the floor, broken glass and foot prints in what you assumed was dried blood, both human and animal. Sasha peeked in a random room, suddenly both your noses were assaulted with a horrid smell, "oh god!" Sasha said putting her hand up to her mouth and nose. You didn't need to look in to know that some anthros had turned the closet into their personal bathroom, "come on lets go" you say grabbing her arm and dragging her away from the closet. Soon the two of you locate the armory and start filling up on any ammo that you could use, you made sure to grab some .50 cal ammo for the Stryker's M2, you locate a new ceramic chest plate so you replace your's with that one, "alright lets get out of here, we've been in here longer than I like to" says Sasha, you nod and grab the duffle bags that you filled with ammo, weapons and some body armor and leave........
