Xian nodded, and slowly counted to five and let off the trigger again. She aimed a little lower and managed to hit it in one knee, the rounds blowing flesh and bone to pieces. The creature tumbled into the side of a building.
"SORRY! MY FIRST TIME SHOOTING A MACHINE GUN!"
Her ears were ringing from the gunfire. She smacked the side of her head, trying to get the ringing to stop.

"Here, put these on!" she handed a pair of hearing protectors to Xian, and continued driving over zombies towards their destination. "good job for a first timer though!"

Xian took the earbuds and slipped them into her ears, blushing a bit under the gas mask. Praise always made her flush red, and she just gave the other woman a thumbs up as they continued driving along the gas colored streets. Everywhere around them there were staggering corpses, people that should have been safe from all of this.
"What did we do to deserve this?"

"No-one deserves this. It's just people being f**ktards and arseholes who either want to make some form of statement or just wanna see the world burn."
She continued driving through the tightly packed streets, even some back streets. She even drove through a park or two.
She did note that praising her madr Xian flush a nice shade of red. Interesting.
"So, what did you do before? You said you worked in an office?"

"I delivered mail and documents to people in the office. I worked for a big import/export shipping company here in the city. Not glamorous but it pays the bills."
In more ways than one, she thought to herself as they drove through the park. Although she assumed after this she would probably need a new line of work. Who knew if anyone from the company was still alive after the attacks?
"What about you? You're too good at this to be some mail delivery girl. Or are the offices that dangerous in Australia?"

Faye laughed, "No, but the wildlife is pretty scary. Nah, Im an army girl, Infantry officer, one of the few women serving in frontline combat roles, and one the even fewer officers in that select group." She was one of the better ones actually, though she was non-chalant about it. "This was supposed to be my first vacation in 4 years. Bad luck that."

"Well, if it's an consolation, you saved my life. So thank you for taking a vacation to our lovely city!"
Xian laid a hand on Faye's leg, and smiled even though the woman couldn't see her lips from behind the gas mask. If it wasn't for Faye she would have been chopped to pieces. If she had survived that she would be walking around as one of those things outside.
"I'll try the radio again. Maybe someone is out there."

"Good call. Keep doing it every 30 seconds." Faye distinctly felt Xian's hand on her leg, and thought it felt nice, as was her smile, hidden though it was.
A light blush crept onto her skin aroundnthe gas mask. "Your doing well, just keep it up."

"My hand, or the radio?"
Xian have her a flirty smile, and then she tried the radio again.
"Hello? Is there anyone there? Can anyone hear this?"
She stopped transmitting and then waited to see if anyone responded. In the meantime she left her hand where it was. It was nice, and was the woman blushing too? She imagined it was interesting to see the woman react to her touch.
"Nothing. What do we do if no one answers?"

"Just keep trying with it. Someone will eventually pick up." she told her, blushing slightly at the previous flirting question. However, if the woman wanted to go down this path, lets see how far she could push it. "As for your hand, if you wish to put it on my thigh you could go a little higher, and more between them. Though if that is your wish I will have to insist that you either roll up your skirt or remove it entirely, as even ripped it is too long for good mobility."

"hmm, well that is fixable."
Xian reached down and torr the skirt widthwise, taking a half meter off of the end. Now it was closer to an above the knee skirt and than it had been before.
"Better?"
She placed her hand back on Faye's leg, muttering under her breath in Mandarin that she must have been crazy to do what she was doing. Still, she was doing it nonetheless wasn't she?
"Is there anyone on this frequency? Can anyone hear me?"

"Better, but not quite there yet. Here." She flipped out her combat knife, and with a quick twist and pull, she tore a slit in Xian's skirt without touching her flesh, the slit went up to mini skirt length. "that should work." The radio wasnt silent, but was filled with static.

"You aim high don't you? I hope you know this skirt was very expensive. But work demanded it. If they saw this they would probably change the dress code!"
A zombie bumping against the passenger door brought Xian out of her flirting and back to the present situation. How were they going to make it out of the cloud of death gas?
"I don't think anyone is listening. How much farther do we have to go?"
She tried the radio again, speaking Mandarin into the mic to see if that changes anything. Maybe someone was listening on a civilian radio?

"Well it does make a sexy look on you. Minnie skirt, stockings and combat boots is a good look. It would be better if i shortened it to micro skirt length though." Faye placed her left hand on Xian's thigh, rubbing it reassuringly as she continued navigating. "I dunno, but im following the basic direction to get out of the city." "try switching channels, just make a note of the frequency bore each change, including this one."

Xian nodded, noting she was on channel 16 before trying 17. She spoke in both English and Mandarin, waiting for a response.
Nothing but static.
"I can't wait to get out of this fog. And this mask. I feel so claustrophobic in it. We've done drills before but I've always hated it."
She stopped looking out the window and instead looker down at Faye's hand on her thigh. It felt...nice.
"Not the vacation you were expecting. What were you hoping to find here?"
