You live by a code and you die by one || Apr 15, 2014

They were all over the place. The more she tried to barricade the faster they approached. There were too many of them and not enough of them. "You all need to fall back." She screamed out over her shoulder, the group of people behind her scared and frantic. They were all going to die. But it didn't have to be this way. She would try to save as many of them as she could. Some didn't know how to use a gun, but she did. "I need more ammo" She yelled.

Taryn needed to stall them from breaking through as much as she could. At least to give the rest of them a head start to reach safety. Once she was handed what she needed she turned to the girl. "Promise me you'll run and not look back?" She made the scared blonde petite girl promise her. She was young and if she could escape this hell, she deserved to live her life to the fullest. This wasn't how Taryn thought she would die, but if she could save someone's life, it was the best way to go. The girl promised and Taryn placed a kiss to the girls forehead. "RUN!" She watched the girl run before turning back to watch a herd of them break through the pile of cars.

"Voy a tomar usted al infierno conmigo." She shouted to gain their attention, throw them off the scent of the others. Fire after fire of bullets erupted from the barrel of the guns she had in her hands and she charged after them. She knew at that moment, there would be no coming back.

Day 1 - Amalia & Taryn

[amalia-toma-deactivated20140912]

We’re trying to create a barrier with the cars. Figured by nightfall we move to the Station, where the guns, food, and medical supplies are mostly. If anyone gets hurt, send them my way. 

[taryn-jones]

I'll help with the cars. I'll see you guys at the station.

Day 1 - Taryn & Jenner

[jcunninghamthings-deactivated20]

We need as many people on this as possible. The faster we get the done the better off we will be. Frankie and I are working by Java the Hut. Ava and Amalia are by O’Quigley’s. The others are at the Pie Hole are gathering up supplies. The plan is to move everyone to the LAPD station for the night. Can you do that?

[taryn-jones]

I see what I can do. Just make sure children and parents are safe. I'll try to get to the LAPD station before nightfall.

[jcunninghamthings-deactivated20]

If we move the cars we can set up a barrier around the block. It won’t hold them forever but it’s better than having no protection.

So, who wants to learn how to hotwire a car?

[taryn-jones]

Do you need more help?

[taryn-jones]

Day 1 - Amalia & Taryn

[amalia-toma-deactivated20140912]

I’ll see if I can find any bolt cutters. Stay safe, and watch your back. Keep them away from your throat. Looks like any kind of bite mark, or scratch and you’ll be infected.

[taryn-jones]

I got that concept. Nice having a little brother that liked zombies growing up. You be safe too Amalia. If you find anyone, bring them to the Pie Hole.

[taryn-jones]

Day 1 - Evan & Taryn

[mrgrant-sb]

Okay.. I’m grabbing boxes of things… There’s drinks and other things that might be useful…

[taryn-jones]

Good. We'll come find you.

[taryn-jones]

Day 1 - Adele & Taryn

[adele-clarke]

L-lachlan’s car, I’m parked right out the front. He was going to get formula and I… oh god, Taryn, I don’t know where he is! His cell just rings out over and over again. Be safe, god be safe.

[taryn-jones]

Keep Evie calm. I'm coming to get you and bring you to safety.

[taryn-jones]

Day 1 - Amalia & Taryn

[amalia-toma-deactivated20140912]

LAPD Station. There are guns, but they’re locked in a metal case though. I’m trying to find something to break the lock.

[taryn-jones]

Find what you can to break it. I'll head over that way.

[adele-clarke]

I’m.. I’m outside Pie Hole, Evie is with me but she’s starting to freak out because I am. Lachlan’s gone, everyone is screaming, there’s gun fire everywhere and d-dead people hitting the car. We’re- we’re fine.

[taryn-jones]

I'm coming for you Adele. You have to keep Evie calm. You can't let her cry. They will hear you. What car are you in?

[mrgrant-sb]

I’m in The Writing Nook right now… It might come handy for supplies..

[taryn-jones]

Find what you can. We should move over to the Pie Hole, there is food and water there. That is where everyone should go. 

[taryn-jones]

Day 1 - Amalia & Taryn

[amalia-toma-deactivated20140912]

Taryn?! You’re right we need to create a barricade, block it off. But.. with… Cars. We need to push the cars, together.

I found some paintball guns, they look like they’ve been mortified. So, they look useful. 

[taryn-jones]

That would work. I'm at the rifling range. Where are you? Keep those guns. 

[adele-clarke]

Tayrn! Are you alright? Are you hurt? Where are you? Jenner is coming to me, we will come for you.

[taryn-jones]

I'm fine. Adele. Do you have Evie with you? Are you hurt? We need to get you two to safety. You can't be out in the open. I'm at the rifling range. Where are you?

[taryn-jones]

We need to find refuge. We need to barricade the area. 

[taryn-jones]

There were too many of them. They were coming from all over the place. I needed to find refuge. Food, water, shelter. They were key factors in survival. This I had know from where I grew up. But one couldn't survive this alone. There had to be others out there who needed help. There were others out there that needed to be protected. Were there others out there?

Abby & Taryn

[msabby-lehman-deactivated201406]

Cute teacher in the class room! How are your students? I admire who is a teacher… so much patience.

[taryn-jones]

I teach spoiled brats. Some are good, some I would like to throw out the window. But I'm not allowed to. They do wear down my patience. It's a game for them. 

[maverickcaviler]

Most of it.

[taryn-jones]

What are you going to do with your time now?

[taryn-jones]

Abby & Taryn

[msabby-lehman-deactivated201406]

Krol Inc. I am an assistant. And you? I am still believing you are a model…

[taryn-jones]

I'm not a model. I'm a history teacher at a private school.
