"Hi, Lana Britton. Actress. And you are?" she asked, looking directly at the only other male in the car other than the driver. "U-Uh... Griffin." he nervously answered. "Is that like Cher or Rihanna or do you have last name?" Lana questioned. "N-No, Winters. Griffin Winters." he finished. "Okay." her eyes then turned to both of the girls before her.
Raye pursed his lips into a thin line as he drove forward. "I...don't really know where we should be headed to..." The ravenette admitted, glancing at his phone. He had it on silent due to him chasing after his deadlines and he hadn't checked them in a long time. His family, mom mostly, would bombard him with messages demanding him to take better care of himself. He hadn't any friends, just some colleagues.

Lana scoffed at the girl who'd introduced herself as Marianne and her remark towards her. "I was almost offended but then I realized that I'm not the one trying to pull off the bangs you give a third grader when they come home with lice." the actress spat.
"Enough, you two." Griffin barked. "What's the point of bickering with one another and causing problems within the five of us when there's thousands of actual problems roaming around that would enjoy devouring us?" The male sighed before cracking his knuckles after he spoke to clear his mind and return his attention to Alexander's statement. "I would say head north. We would have the best chance of encountering the fewest amount of these things in a colder setting I would assume." he theorized.
"Aw, look at this...Grown up adult, picking a fight with an actual seventeen year old high schooler. Is your pride bigger than your head? I guess that's the case. You don't seem to use your head, y'know?" Marianne snickered, ignoring the male next to her. Marianne is going to fight fire with fire and she couldn't care less.
"Mm...Makes sense." Raye simply hummed, trying his best to ignore the bickering ladies. The atmosphere in the noisy vehicle was enough to stress him out. He could feel that he was about to reach his limit. He kept his eyes on the road and tried to block out the noises by picturing himself in a calm, serene situation. A situation where he was in a grassy field surrounded by sheeps.

(Sorry for the wording, just woke up after only a few hours of sleep)
Raye gave out a sigh of relief, one where he did not expect of it. "Y'know, I had an older brother who wished the apocalypse happened. Now that it's here, I'm not sure if he's alright." The writer gave a small chuckle as he glanced at his phone. It was on silent for a long time, he'll have ti check on it once they've reached somewhere safe.

Griffin looked up at Lumi then at the driver as he spoke about his brother. "I have an older brother too. When my parents died he looked after me like a father would..." his voiced cracked a bit as he imagined all possible scenarios of his brother's state at the moment. "I hope he's okay..." he finished in a mutter.
"I was never close with my family." Lana stated, twirling her hair some in her finger. "My mother was too controlling, my father left my family and started a new one with his office assistant and my younger brother resents me because I'm the more talented one in the family, obvi. I just hope that they're not dead but instead being eaten piece by piece by one of these things."
Marianne opened her eyes when she felt the vehicle stopped moving. "Quit wallowing, we'll go on foot." The high schooler simply shrugged her shoulders, looking outside for any undeads. There were some, but not very close to them. "We've got weapons in the back, right? The ones you stole from Walmart?"

"There's got to be a gas station or something up ahead somewhere, we could-- we could find one and raid it or something for food too and come back for the car with gas. If anything, I think we should try to get to some sort of shelter before nightfall." Griffin suggested in an attempt to ease Lana and Alexander's discomfort.
Marianne had to bite her tongue to keep herself from making a snide comment. Instead, the teenager could only exhale through her nose and got out of the car. The redhead couldn't believe this woman! Seriously, 'I'm wearing heels'? She was wearing her very tight loafers, bjt fid she complain? Nope, not now, not ever.
"I don't think...." Raye mumbled, the rest all muffled by his face on the steering wheel. Well, the kid was correct. He DID steal a bunch of stuff from a supermarket, not Walmart necessarily, but, same thing. Perhaps their chance of survival was higher than he had thought.

Agent Fallows, signing out~
Griffin, following mostly everyone else's lead, exited the vehicle as well. He turned to Alexander as he started speaking only to cut himself off, seemingly mentally finishing his sentence. "Are we just going up the road?" he asked the group, stretching out his legs in the process after being confined in the car for so long.
Lana yawned, watching the group leave the car and stay mostly huddled around it. Suddenly, the thought of her alone and being ambushed by the undead flooded her mind; prompting to exit the car herself, she sighed. "If my feet get sore, one of you has to carry me." she demanded, pulling her arm behind her head to stretch it.
"O wise lady, might I be your knight in shining armour?" Marianne quipped, bowing her body to the actress as an extra measure. Fine! If she's gonna be stuck with someone who has problems, why not make this worth her time?
