Quattordici ๑ Action ๑ Day One and Two
DAY ONE
A; Locked to Housemates at 750 Partridge Drive
[When Romana wakes it's with a start, a jerk. Instantly, she knows something's wrong, and it isn't hard to tell what that something is. Taking in the state of the house, or rather the rubble that was once a house, she swears her heart stops, her breathing catching in her throat. She feels sick to her stomach, having been in enough bombed sites to have this reaction instantly.
And then she snaps back into herself, pushing up from the rubble she awoke one, never heeding the scratches on her arms as she begins her search. Nails snap here and there as she digs through what remains of the house, frantic for signs of either Australia or Wy, stumbling in her attempts to climb over larger chunks] Australia! Wy! I swear, if you don't answer me, and you're okay, I... I swear whatever I do it won't be pleasant! Answer me! D-Dammit, answer me!
[Cursing again, she strains to try and lift a piece of rubble, spitting another few choice swears as she realises the lack of strength. A human body again. Great. Another thing to worry about.
Later. After she's found her housemates]
B; Around Mayfield, open
[Having found her housemates the next thing on Romana's agenda is to find her allies, her friends. Or even just to find anyone who needs help. So she had quickly started off to hunt for people, clutching a tattered jacket over her nightgown, flat shoes on her feet for once.]
Hello?! Hello?! Is anyone out there, anyone hurt?! Veneziano! Spagna! Ungheria! Canada, Paesi Bassi?! Anyone?
DAY TWO
[They needed supplies. It was useless hiding out without supplies, and stubborn as ever Romana had headed out to find them. Anything she could find, bandages, cans of food, weapons, pieces of clothes, anything she could carry she had taken, making trips to her safe place to dump them.
It was in the middle of one of these trips that the hoard had arrived. Narrowly ducking the shotgun blast Romana scrambles into a sprint, whirling around to aim her own rifle back, one of the few guns she had managed to gather up. She doesn't miss, the thing (For that's all it could be, with skin like that, and a voice so ghastly, a thing, not human) going down. It's easily replaced though.
And then Romana fights. There's not really chance to flee, and her only choice is to hold her own as best she can, a pistol in one hand that she uses sparingly, only when the hunk of wood in the other, which she uses like a bat doesn't do the job fast enough. She's managing okay, for now, but who knows how long she'll last]

no subject
[Cursing to herself in Italian, Romana lets the girl pull her along, smacking away hands that grab out at the two of them. Even when they're behind cover she doesn't relax, knowing that could mean death]
How! They're blocking the way! Unless you know how to fly somehow, we only have out feet to rely on. You shouldn't have been so stupid, I could have handled it piccola!
no subject
[Of course, this is no time to argue. They can either work together, or be eaten together, and she knows it.]
I counted another five of those things. We take them out, and hurry up before their backup shows up, and we might be able to steal their truck, and maybe get some supplies while we're at it. On three?
no subject
That's if more of them have not already heard the noise and shown. But I suppose that's our best option, besides dying while trying to hide amongst rubble.
[Straightening up she checks her pistol, counting the bullets left quickly. Not enough to get rid of 5, and if there's more than 5... At least there's still her makeshift bat] Right. Don't leave me side, no splitting up. Capir-... understand?
no subject
On three then...
[She catches movement out of the corner of her eye, as a single burnt hand wraps around the corner of the building. Without stopping to count, she reaches out and jabs her shiv into it, pinning it to the wall, prompting an inhuman wail.]
Three!
no subject
[The wail sends a shiver down her spine but Romana ignores it, stepping past the other girl quickly, her makeshift bat swinging out and catching the cannibal in the face, the crunch of his bones easily heard. She doesn't stop though, repeating the blow just in case before elbowing another, always keeping an eye on the other girl, just in case.]
no subject
That goddamn low, groaning scream again.]
Above you! Look out!
no subject
Grazie! Now hurry, we're almost done with them!
no subject
You got more where that came from?
no subject
Si, of course. It will be more effective if we are closer though. Not that I'll miss, I just don't want to waste bullets.
