It was morning already and still no sign of the two he saw yesterday. Max has been driving for hours looking down street after street. Until he notice he was almost on empty. So he decided to check on Rex and fill up on supplies and gas. As he approached the garage he could see that about 5 of undead had gathered in front of the gate to get into yard but they weren’t no problem he just ran them over with the truck and got into the garage with no problem. When Max opened the door he was greeted with a friendly bark and a tail waging.
Max: How have things been boy?
Then rex gave a couple of brakes and went in a circle.
Max: Ok I take that as good.
Then max took a shower and changed his clothes when he was done he resupplied and let Rex out while he filled the truck up and clean the blood off of it. But while he was working Rex had other plans and keep throwing a ball at Max because Rex wanted to play but Max couldn’t play because Max didn’t know how long they would survive that’s if they survived the night but Rex was well enough to go with him now and so they started looking for them. Just as Max was looking over the map of the city he looked at what he could track of them last night and everything pointed to the direction of the mall. So Max packed up supplies and Rex and headed to the mall. Max hoped they where there.
Max: It would be nice to actually talk to a real person we haven’t seen another person since the time that lady jump off the roof.
Before they knew it they could see the front of the mall. As they reached the front of the mall Max pulled the truck up to the sidewalk and as he looks at the front door it doesn’t appear to have been opened in a while. But as he looks around he had seen a man sitting on a bench and a little girl playing with something on the ground. So Max got out of the truck and had Rex come out as well and they both walked over to the man and the girl but Max had his gun ready due to his combat experience.
Max: excuse me sir is your name Remy the reaper?

Remus had been sitting on the bench watching Jennifer play for several minutes, before he saw a truck pull up. His curiosity sparked, Remus watched the truck. A man and a dog got out and began walking towards him. The man looked vaguely familiar, but Remus couldn't put his finger on where he had seen him. Jennifer looked up from what she had been doing. The instant she saw the man's dog, her face lit up.
"Doggy!" she exclaimed loudly. Standing up quickly, Jennifer ran to the dog and practically tackled the poor thing with a hug. She began nuzzling her head on it and petting it. The dog appeared uncomfortable, but luckily didn't see Jennifer as a threat and didn't attack her.
The man who had gotten out of the truck walked straight up to Remus. Remus raised an inquisitive eyebrow when the man correctly identified Remus by his alias.
"Well, my name is Remus Drax, but yes, you probably would know me as 'Remy the Reaper'. You seem to know so much about me, and yet I know nothing about you. Who might you be?"
Remus remained seated on the bench, staring at the man in front of him, while Jennifer continued to harass the man's poor dog.

AS max got closer to the man he heard the girl yell doggie and then the little girl tackled rex at first he didn’t look to happy but as he began to realize she was a regular little girl. And began to enjoy to have a little kid pet him. But as max asked if he was remy the reaper he had got a response. "Well, my name is Remus Drax, but yes, you probably would know me as 'Remy the Reaper'. You seem to know so much about me, and yet I know nothing about you. Who might you be?"
Max: Oh I’m sorry where are my manors my name is Maximilion Connor but you just call Max for short and that guy over there his name is Rex best friend best partner I’ve ever had.
While Max was telling Remus who he was he sat next to him on the bench. When Max was done talking he pulled out a pack of smokes and a mernie issued lighter.
Max: want one?

When the man told Remus his name, Max, and sat down next to him, he grinned. 'So, this guys not even afraid to sit next to me? Well damn, the world must be in deeper s*** then I thought.' Remus thought to himself. When the man pulled out a pack of cigarettes and offered Remus one, the vein in his forehead pulsed.
"Oh you son of a b*tch." Remus said incredulously. "Where the hell were you five minutes ago when I was digging in a disposal for a half smoked cigarette." Remus shook his head, but accepted the cigarette and lighter from the man gratefully. Lighting it, Remus inhaled deeply and handed the lighter back to the man.
"You know Max, in general, mankind is a damn plague on this planet. They're shallow, uncaring, pitiful creatures, that wallow in their own misfortune and sorrow. You; you're alright by me." Remus took another drag of his cigarette. "The girl over there attacking your dog, her names Jennifer. Found her on the streets a couple years back. She's the closest thing to a family I have, love her like my own daughter." Remus lowered his head and laughed. "I know, the infamous Remy the Reaper loving anybody, seems a bit far fetched huh?"
Remus looked back up at Jennifer. He hadn't seen her this happy in a long time. Rex seemed to be appreciating the company now too, finally having someone to play with. He was running a short distance off and looking back at Jen, who would run after him. In response he would run by her, tail wagging and panting happily.
Remus smiled to himself. If Jen was happy, he was happy. Somethings in this world were worth living for; Jen's smile was one of them.

As Max offered Remus if he wanted a smoked he raised his voice saying "Oh you son of a b*tch." But took the cigarette any way. As they talked a little Remus told Max that that girls name was Jen and how he found her. Max thought to himself me and him aren’t that different.
Max: Yeah I haven’t seen Rex play that much ether I mean we’ve been just working nonstop. But I guess you got to enjoy the little things.
While talking with Remus Max also light a cigarette. Jen and Rex where still playing and you could tell that both of them were have so much fun it made Max smile that finally rex had a little kid to play with not and older man. It also made Max have a flash back of day his wife and new born was killed. He also was trying to see his son all grown up but couldn’t it man him ferrous but as Max was in his flashback it was interrupted with Rex barking and growling at something.

Remus smiled as the man lit a cigarette for himself. 'Guy after my own heart.' he thought. The man made a little small talk, and the two just sat on the bench, basking in their moment of peace. It was short lived. Before long, Remus heard Max's dog begin to bark. At first he didn't think anything of it. His attention was violently focused when Jennifer screamed.
Looking up quickly, Remus saw several walkers coming straight towards Jen, a little too close for comfort. Standing up before he had time to think, Remus grabbed the four inch knife from his left forearm and hurled it at the walker closest to Jennifer. The knife caught the zombie in the left temple; it crumpled to the ground. Immediately after he threw the knife, Remus was running towards Jen.
Reaching down, Remus drew both of the nine inch bowie knives from his thighs, and held them so that the blades were brandished at the bottom of his hands. Reaching Jen, he stomped his size thirteen steel toed boot down on the zombie skull. Looking up, he saw another one lunging at him. Grabbing it by the arm and using the momentum of the lunge, Remus flipped the undead man over his shoulder. When it hit the ground Remus stabbed his right knife into the creature's skull. Remus placed his left knife back in its sheath and ripped the right one out of the man's skull. Stooping over, he ripped the four inch knife out of the other zombie's temple, wiped it quickly, and re-sheathed it. Looking quickly behind him, Remus saw several more approaching.
Remus ran to Jennifer and picked her up, his arm around her waist. Running back towards the man Remus shouted,
"Head for the mall! We'll take cover there!" Running towards the doors of the mall, Remus noticed that the glass was broken. It wouldn't keep the zombies out, but they could find a place in the mall to hunker down for a short time. Remus grinned. Things were getting interesting.

Once Max heard the growling he immediately knew something was wrong then he heard the little girl scream as he looked over to see what was going on he seen several undead come at them. But they weren’t just coming from over there they were also coming from be hide them. So he called Rex to his side with a whistled and picked up his g-18 and was firing at the undead approaching from be hide them. It was like Max was on a roll getting good kills hitting some directly between the eyes but as he was trying to slow them down he could hear the man yell to him "Head for the mall! We'll take cover there!" as he had was approaching the mall entrance with the little girl in his arms.
Max: Alright boy go up there with them and ill be right there.
After Max told Rex to go inside with them he gave a bark and headed up to the door with Remus and Jen. Max then yelled
Max: look after him for me ill hold them of a little you guys find a good spot to hide! Hes got a waikie talkie on his colure Ill contacted you!
After Max yelled to them he went to his truck and grabbed his bags and supplies and set up a little block ad that he made from some benches lying around.

Remus raised an eyebrow as the man told him to take his dog and go ahead without him. 'Crazy SOB.' Remus thought. Shrugging Remus ran ahead through the broken glass doors of the mall. Upon getting inside, Remus saw a few walkers scattered around the bottom floor. Spotting a staircase Remus ran to it and began going up. He was interrupted by a light punch to the stomach. Looking down he saw an indignant Jennifer scowling at him.
"I can run myself you know." She said. Laughing, Remus stopped for a moment to set her down.
"Alright, stick close, and let me know if you see anything else getting too close." They continued to run up the stairs and down the narrow pathway. Remus spotted a store with it's security gate half open. Remus rolled underneath the gate, and Jennifer merely stooped to get under. Max's dog Rex, was close on their heels too. Remus waited for him to get under the gate, before pulling it down completely.
Remus drew the 6 inch knife from his shoulder, and slowly inspected the store. It was a shoe store, in a very bad state of disarray. Remus began a quick sweep of the store, but found no one else present, living or dead. Walking to the door at the back of the store, Remus tried it, only to find it locked. 'I'll have to assume that no one can get in that way either' he thought to himself.
Remus walked to the store's desk, and got behind it. Beckoning for Jen to come there as well, he sat down, out of sight from the rest of the mall. Jennifer came and sat down next to him. Not wanting to be left out, Rex did the same, and Jen began happily petting him again.

As Max finished his little block ad he heard them enter the mall and Max began to fire on the approaching undead but there was way to many for just one man so to by himself some time he hit the alarm button on his keys to make the alarm go off. So the undead went towards the truck but they soon realized that no one was there but by time they realized that no on was there Max had gotten inside the mall. Once inside Max pulled out his walkie talkie and radioed Remus on Rexs walkie talkie.
Max: Hello Any one there?
Max said as he was grouched moving toward the malls map. He could tell that there was some undead and the ones there where in there where come towards him because of the sound. So Max hit the button again to shut the alarm off so it did attracked any more of them.
Max: Hello anyone there again any one there it Max.

Remus and Jennifer had been sitting in the store for several minutes, when Max started calling on Rex's collar. Jen's eyes got wide.
"Remus! Remus look! The doggy's talking!" Chuckling quietly to himself, Remus reached over to Rex's collar, and unclipped the radio from it. Pushing the talk button, Remus spoke into the device.
"Yo, we're upstairs in a shoe store. When you come in the mall, there should be a staircase on the left. It'll be the first shoe store you come to. I pulled the gate down, but it's not locked so you should just be able to pull it back up. Try not to bring any friends with you." Remus released the talk button and waited for a reply. Looking at Jen, she was flushed with embarrassment about thinking the dog could talk. Remus rubbed her head.
"Sorry Jen, no talking dogs." he said with a smile.

As Remus answered the page from Max. Max new right away what store they were in cause his wife use to get her shoes there all the time and Max would go with her and they would spend all day in that one store. But as Max approached the stairs he could hear like if there was about a hundred undead outside so he ran up the stairs quietly as he could not to attracted attention to himself. But Max was to in a rush and didn’t notice that there was an undead at the top of the stairs. but as the the undead man was ready to sink his teath in to max triped and fell to the groud and then he triped the undead and made it fall down the stairs.
Max: that was close I can’t let that happen to me.
As Max got up off the ground he could see that there wasn’t any undead near the store or any more near him so as he got to the store and pulled the gate up and then shut it be hide him. And then Max whispered.
Max: Hello where are u guys?

Remus heard the gate of the store slide open, and grabbed the knife on his shoulder just in case. He relaxed however when he heard Max's voice. Grabbing a piece of paper laying near him, Remus crumpled it up and threw it over the counter in Max's general direction.
"Over here." he called out quietly. Remus looked back at Jennifer. She looked so carefree. She was happily petting Max's dog, lost in her own little world. Remus smiled. Jen had been so happy since she got a fury four legged friend to play with. She probably had never had a pet before the outbreak, and was really enjoying the fluffy company. Remus thought about this. Perhaps he should stick with Max for awhile. At the very least, Jen would be able to stay with the dog. Remus thought about Jen. She never really seemed unhappy, but living in this apocalyptic world had to be hard on a child. If playing with a dog could help her forget about the circumstances, and keep that joyous smile on her face, then Remus would need to control his urges for awhile. It would be hard, but he assumed that Max would be more then happy to share a few more cigarettes with him, to help keep his homicidal tendencies at bay. Remus laughed and shook his head. He only hoped it would be that easy.

As Max Asked where they were he was starteled by a peace of paper that had been throwen to and her Remus voice and started to walk over to the counter and pulled a stool over with him and sat down.
Max: Dam I need cigarette
He said out load. So once again he pulled out the pack he had in his upper pocket and his military lighter after lighting himself one he put both the lighter and pack on the counter so that Remus may have another as well it looked like he need one. Also once Max sat down Rex came over for a quick second jumped up to Max and gave him a kiss and went back to Jen's company.
Max: Hm you really like her don’t u boy? Oh and jen would u mind bring him over there in the store so he could do his business please? Oh Remus one left all for yous man.

Remus watched as Max lit himself a cigarette and grinned when he was offered one. He accepted it and thanked Max. Jennifer looked up questioningly at Max.
"What business to doggies do?" she asked. Remus laughed as he lit his cigarette and inhaled deeply.
"What Max means is the dog has to go to the bathroom." Jennifer thought about this.
"Where is he gonna go?" she asked. Remus peered over the edge of the counter.
"Um, why don't you take him over to the far corner of the store Jen." Jen smiled and nodded. Standing up quickly she pet Rex.
"C'mon doggy, it's potty time!" she exclaimed. She ran over to the corner of the store, and Rex followed her. Remus shook his head.
"She's a funny one, Jen is." Remus smiled. "She's so innocent, and yet, so grown up in this world. Sometimes I wish that she could just have a normal childhood, but then we would never have met." Remus sighed and took another drag of his cigarette. "World's a funny place." he said finally.

Max: Got that right. I just wish this never happen or at lease my wife and son where here she would have loved Jen. Just like she loved every little kid.
Max opened up a little to Remus while they watch Jen bring Rex over to the other corner to go to the bathroom. And then had a flash back at when him and his wife finally made the decision to have a child. But as he thought about it more he began to get more upset and his cigarette was all done. Then max throw his bag to the ground and started searching the bag for more but there wasn’t any more he forgot to bring more. He then got furious and throw the bag as he did Rex came over and tackled him to the ground giving a little growl then licking him. That made Max came to his senses and once he was fine Rex went back over to Jen to finish going to the bathroom
Max: Sorry about that bad memory came up but also we are out of smokes. And I was wondering if the two of you had a place to sleep and get some real food and a real bed and even more smokes.
