Xian sat in her seat, feeling of little use as the woman took over the situation. She didn't know anything about how to get out of a city filled with monster terrorists or the undead.
"No, don't go that route. It's always blocked off with traffic. Probably be worse now."
She had heard Faye mention an overland route that would definitely be blocked off. Going towards the bridge would be a terrible idea.

"Yes we have recon helo's, from what they have said the bridge is barely hanging on by a thread. several nasty tanker truck explosions." "Darn. alright, so what do you have in terms of air units that can evac the civilians? I doubt we could perform an FOD walkdown." "f**k THAT! No we have several ospreys that should be able to handle both the civilians and all our vehicles, so we should be good." "That is better, alright, We will follow you." She gave Xian the radio back and sped off towards the convoy.

"Lead on, we'll be right behind you."
Xian kept one hand on the controls for the gun, and the other on Faye's thigh, mimicking the motions the woman had been performing earlier.
"So, did you come to China for the sights, or the people? I'm sure there are a few sights you'd love to see..."
There was a slight crackle on the radio as she finished speaking. A voice came through on the other end.
"Um...you're still transmitting."

Faye had an earthy chuckle. "Just trying to boost morale boys, its her first time so be nice."

"Well, new to killing zombies anyways. Not new to flirting."
Xian turned the turret behind them, checking to see if anything was following them. Other than the few walking zombies desperately shuffling to keep up with them, they were clear. She saw what appeared to be another civilian, staggering with a gas mask half on its face. She was glad she had remembered how to put one on.
"How can anyone get used to this?"

"It takes practice. And a flexible mind."
She drove over a couple zombies with axes in their hands, and one cop zombie shot an assault rifle at them, several bullets impacting the door. "Though being shot at by a zombie is new. Being shot at isnt, though that is rather annoying."

Xian turned the weapon towards the zombie and squeezed off a short burst, cutting it down before it could fire on them again.
"Sorry. Didn't want it taking any more shoots at us."
She could feel her body trembling, coming down from the adrenaline rush. She was going to crash later.

"That's alright Xian. your not used to these things yet." Faye rubbed Xian's upper thigh reassuringly. "Don't worry. I am right here."

"For that I'm glad. I wouldn't be here if you hadn't found me."
Xian took a few deep breaths and tried to calm down. Faye had kept her alive, and trusted her to help keep them both alive. She had been doing fine so far but could feel the adrenaline rush fading. Was this how Faye felt after a fight.

Faye grinned as she saw the look on Xian's face. A face she had seen so many times on combat freshies.
"Everyone is different in how they deal with the adrenaline, and the loss. Some get tired, some get jitters, some get horny."
She patter her thigh before putting the hand back on the wheel.
"Dont worry, just keep breathing slowly, you'll be fine."

"Is it normal to feel like you want to vomit? Because I may end up doing that. Not right now, but definitely later."
Xian worked at controlling her breathing, and closed her eyes for a moment. She just needed to calm down and she would get through this. Faye would make sure she would be alright. She was a soldier, and clearly she wanted the woman to make it through the ordeal. She clearly had...plans for her if the hand on her thigh meant anything. And she hadn't been shy about reciprocating the affections either, if her torn skirt was any implication of that.

Faye chuckled. "Yeah, that is a standard reaction for first timers."
As she continued to drive, the convoy ahead of them began to open fire to their right, as a massive BOW crashed through 2 buildings, and slammed against a Humv, sending it flying through a store front, before an explosion blew up the building.
"f**k!" Faye drove hard as the giant BOW turned towards them, and she weaved between his legs.
Faye grabbed the radio as she looked behind them.
"Any of you BSAA guys know what the f**k this thing is?!
"we saw one 6 months ago, but that one had a teather on its back!"
"f**k! Okay, Have the APC target its knee's! That should slow it down!"
"Xian, shoot at its eyes, harrass that f**ker!"

Xian turned her head away from the ruined building and burning vehicle, and focused on the screen in front of her. She lined up the weapon with its head and began firing off short burst, some shots going wide while others found their mark. She didn't know what it was, but she imagined even the creature would feel the pain of bullets impacting with its skull. She wasn't sure how much ammunition they had left, but she was doing as Faye told her. Short, controlled bursts. She tried not to think of what would happen if it got to them next. Would their deaths be quick? She didn't think they would be.

The creature raised an arm as the bullets impacted, which is when the 25mm cannon opened up, annihilating the knee of the chasing BOW.
It fell forward roaring, and started crawling towards them.
"Aim the 25mm at its face!" she radio'ed to the apc.

Xian stopped firing, figuring the larger Cannon would do more damage than what she was firing. As the rounds impacted with th creature, it's rounds turned the skull into pulp, and it stopped chasing them. Xian slumped in her chair, hands shaking as she let go of the controls. For the moment they were safe. She wasn't sure how long that would last though.
"How much farther?"
