[Running through the streets of the human city, Loki searched for a way out, a way up. He held no desire to become a feast for the wretched dead that followed them and what strength he had was starting to run out.]

Can you see any way beyond their reach? [So far the woman beside him had proved capable of keeping up and useful in other ways. He'd hate to lose her so quickly.]
coverts: (eager)

most def y!

[Natalie allowed the man accompanying her to run, while she lingered a short distance behind. She wished she had a solution for him, some sort of answer to get them both out of this. She was used to always being able to find a way out, to find a fix to any problem.

She can't do that here.

But she is still able to produce a smile, and so she jogs to close the distance between them, a light grin intact on her face.

Hey -

[It's as she's reaching out for his shoulder in an attempt to tell him not to worry that her eye catches sight of a rickety ladder attached to the side of a nearby building. She doesn't waste any time in heading over toward it. She'll have to jump to reach the bottom over it, but it shouldn't be any trouble reaching it. Her companion, however -]

Over here! When you hit rock bottom, the only way to go is up, right? [She grins, laughing as she claps her hands together. She readies herself before taking a leap upward, grabbing hold of the bottom of the ladder in order to pull herself up so she can climb to the roof.]
rockofages: (Loki: false smile)

\o/ Also you are the best for playing Nat

[He pulls away from her hand, face assuming an aloof frown. He was never one for being touched, especially not by strangers and especially not in a situation like this.

Loki follows her gaze towards the way out and doesn't restrain the sharp smile. He would not fall this day. He spares an amused chuckle for her childish enthusiasm watches her climb. She had some physical skill as well. Good.]


That is what they tell me. [He was never quite sure himself but today would not be the time or place to test the theory. Over his should he see's the advancing pack of shamblers. Wasiting no more time, Loki leaps up, catching onto the ladder and climbing after her.]
coverts: (don't make me kick your ass)

thank you! She's brand new for me so I hope I do her justice!

[She's almost all the way to the roof when she feels the ladder shift with his additional weight, and she lets out a sigh of relief. No needing to jump down to hoist him up. She scales the way to the top and doesn't waste any time in jogging over to the edge to peer down at the creatures pursuing them.

She doesn't want to admit they're zombies, because as far as she knew they were the furthest thing from real. But as it turns out, she's finding out a lot of things she thought were real actually aren't.
]

They shouldn't be able to reach us here. [Which means they'll have time to rest and form a plan. A plan would be really great right about now. Her eyes frantically look around, searching for something to use as a weapon. Finding nothing, her shoulders slump, but she refuses to look entirely defeated.]

We can travel from rooftop to rooftop if we have to. Anything to keep moving and stay alive.

rockofages: (Loki: bit of mischief)

She's adorable so far!

[He follows mere moments behind her. On the roof, he casts his gaze around them, seeking a better fitting weapon than the knives he hid within his belt. Finding nothing his sighs and lets his attention return to her.

She seemed determined, used to stressful situations, perhaps used to dealing with those that would panic. Interesting.]


Unless there are other means of reaching the roof. [He says archly, striding towards what could be an access point. He tests it's strength. Seal shut. Hmm.

Glancing at her, Loki gives a dry laugh.]


You sound experienced in matters of survival, my dear.
