(OOC Again I apologize for my absence)
Allister rolled his eyes as July burst haphazardly into the room. The girl was gonna get herself killed. Regardless, He was better from a distance then in close corridors. The ex army ranger unslung his rifle and crouched in the shadows of the hall ready to give July support if she needed it. When the girl was grabbed from above, he released the safety and aimed at a spot on the wall where he assumed the assailant would be. He'd just have to hope the wall was plaster or dry wall and not brick.
A short time passed. July had managed to escape by herself and was having a civil conversation with the two men, though he couldn't make out everything that was said, all of his concentration directed through his scope, so that he wouldn't hit July if a shot needed to be taken. Things seemed to be going smoothly enough however and Allister waited silently for his next cue, whether it would be one of civility or hostility, he didn't know.

The young Airman shrugs as he prints off the record, the printer on the otherside of the room coming to life loudly. By now the building's residents were stirred up, hungry moans being heard, due to the ammount of noise thats been eminating from the room. As the printer prints the last page Jake grabs a gray folder and puts the papers inside it, handing it off to July as he finishes.
"Time to go, I don't think we want to deal with everything in this buidling at once" He says as he heads for one of the alternate exits to the room, picking up his TMP off of the computer desk.
(OOC:) Again soryr for the long wait, been switched shifts and still dealing with air force stuff.

"Yeah, but I'm keeping an eye on that file as we go." Ethan muttered to Jake. "This may be an outbreak zone but I'm not to chuffed about handing over police information to whoever that kid is working for, especially since it seems she's been coerced."
The barricaded doors started cracking as the zombies outside started putting all their effort into breaking through, one of them managing to rip open a piece of the rotted wood and get a peak inside at the group, moaning through half a jaw. Ethan threw one of his flash pellets towards the creature, startling it backwards as it banged against the door. The other mutants behind pushed their member aside so that they could start fighting over tearing at the doorway.
"Time to go kids."
Ushering the others towards the airman and the exit he'd found, Ethan tipped another shelf behind the group to cover their escape, no point wasting ammo when they could just get away clean.
"Anyone know where we're going from here?"

July snatched the folder as soon as it came to her and began searching through the pages. God, there were a lot of them. It looked like Icepick had done more bad things in Raccoon City than back in Collins, though the entire folder might also be a combination of records in both towns. Carefully, she skimmed through the papers to find something she might understand or be of some use. She was unsuccessful. However, unknown to her, the person she was looking for had already been transferred to another building in Raccoon City.
Thinking nothing else of it, July closed the folder and held it in her hands. Her ears perked up when she heard the moans in the distance. The zombies were coming. Oh well. The silence was nice while it lasted. She personally didn't know where she needed to go now, but as long as she had no use for the police station, she did not need to be there any more nor did she want to be in there. Her handgun was aimed in the direction of the only door to prevent any zombies from getting her.

(OOC: To be honest, I'm not sure which door was barricaded, so I'm going to go on the assumption that I wasn't behind it >_>)
A shot rang out as the creatures continued to try to force their way into the room. It found its mark easily between the hole that was forming in the door, connecting with the head of the closest zombie and several behind it. Allister pulled back the bolt on his rifle expelling the spent shell, and locked it back into place. The scientist rose slowly and walked into the room, rifle still trained on the door.
"Hey, name's Allister, no time for introductions though, we have to move." Allister said simply, not wanting to alarm the two armed men. Glancing quickly to July, Allister addressed her. "Did you get everything you needed?" He said with a small smile as another shot rang out. Due to his new vantage angle, that shot connected with the first creatures face before deflecting downwards. Allister cringed, everytime he took one down, two more filled its place. 'Yeah, we have to move now.' He thought to himself. Allister turned to follow the two men towards the door they were heading for. "What's the plan?" He asked simply.

Jake was surprised by the newcomer, as he thought Nightshade had barricaded the only door., aparently not. The open door was now funneling a mass of zombies into the room. The young airman quickly looked around, but could not find a way out.
Then a lesson tought during Z week raced through his head. If you were unable to find a conventional way out, think outside the box, dont just look around, look up and down, in and out as well. With that insight running through his head he glanced up.
The ceiling had tiled openings randomly spaced in it, commonly used for maintenance so they could hold weight. He looked to Nightshade and pointed up at the closest one, just over a desk. "The ceiling, we can climb up to the next floor!" He shouted out, dashing to the desk and with his arms sweeping everything off, included an old computer.
He figured Nightshade would be going up first, with his acrobatic abilities aiding in moving the tile and climbing up, and as such went to aid the girl, as she appeared to be just to short to make it up herself.
OOC:
That ok with you guys?

ooc: Vent escape, if it's good enough for John McClane it's good for me.
ic: One of the zombies lunged towards the desk that Jake was clearing, grabbing for his wrists. The airman proved more able though, and pulled the zombie forward off balance for Ethan to follow up with a gloved left hook across the jaw, sending it sprawling into the forming crowd.
"Good plan, let me just make a way up."
He shot out the end of his cloak at the light fixtures, pulling himself up and kicking open the tiles to make a gap big enough for the group to get up. Crawling into the space he threw off his cape and lowered it down to the rest of the team, wrapping it tightly around his forearms and bracing himself.
"Move quick but no shoving, this thing will hold the weight but I'm not to confident about the roof doing the same."

As the creatures got closer, July knew it was time for her to think quickly or just simply go by instinct. She saw Nightshade going up and leaving a little rope to climb up. With lightening speed, July shimmied up the cloak and made it into the vent. She was surprised with herself. Her skills seemed to have gotten better since last week. Her boss would be pleased to hear about this.
Her weight would not be too much of a problem. She lost count of how many vents she crawled through so this one would be no more different with nobody knowing who was right above them. The men were probably a different story.
Once up inside the vent, she waited for the others to join her. So far the information she got was only slightly helpful and she would need a little more help to find the rest that was of some use.

Allister continued to fire into the crowd of zombies as the others managed the escape. The scientist cringed. Every creature he brought down was swiftly replaced by two or three more, he had to go. Slinging his rifle onto his back, Allister turned for the man's cloak that was dangling from the ceiling. Jumping, he grabbed onto it and pulled himself up in one swift motion. Glancing quickly at the other two men, he turned to July.
"You all right kid?"

Jake glanced at the girl and the man before shaking his head slightly. He wasn't sure if the maintenance crawl way would hold all of their weight and went straight to work looking for a week section in the 'ceilling' to break through.
He quickly found a said section and in luck it was a access point to the 2nd floor. He unlocked the lock and slowly pushed up.

July turned to Allister and said with a stoic face, "I'm fine. I don't need you to worry about me." This was getting annoying to her. Why did all these people that she met act like they actually cared for her well-being when she told them straight-forward that she was fine and didn't need any help. All she wanted to do was get her job done and go home so she could get around to following another set of orders.
She quickly followed Jake to the second floor opening and quickly, rather than slowly, pulled herself through.

Ethan followed behind the group, closing up the tiles to block the zombies on the off chance one managed to climb up after them, maybe by clambering over the crowd or something crazy. Didn't hurt to be careful though.
He thought about the group he'd met up with so far. The airman was surely the most trustworthy of the bunch, striking a fine balance between newly enlisted optimism and field experience without becoming depressed, numbed or jaded by operating in the outbreak. Alistar hadn't said too much since they'd met so he could go either way at this point, at least he could kill zombies when necessary. Finally July was gathering a lot of suspicion going after that file, but from some of her comments and that radio call she may be coerced or blackmailed into it by another faction. Might as well stick around and see where it goes.

Allister sighed and rubbed the back of his head. July was certainly a strong willed one, but he couldn't help but feel that some of it was a front. Some of it. Without a doubt the girl was strong to make it in this post apocalyptic world, but everyone needed a shoulder to lean on at one time or another. He blew out a casual breath and followed after the group.
