you are such a dick. Here’s your bag. I figured that you might want a few extra shots in case things unexpectedly go to shit.”
                  Greg accepted the backpack nodding and said, “Don’t worry i’m pretty damn sure that it’ll go to shit, when hasn’t it. But at least now we have the good sense to keep our distance from those things if we need to.”
                  Greg walked past the two pushing Shaun back into Ellie and went into the room where he grabbed his long range rifle as well. He held it up and said, “Bullets do better when you got something to put them in. I’m not kidding when I say that we are keeping our distance from those things. I’ll split their head open at a few hundred yards versus having to worry about not getting blown up by one of Clary’s bombs if at all possible.”
                  “Yeah I don’t think your hearing can stand to many more of those things happening. Besides what happens when Clary runs out of stuff to blow up?”
                  Ellie said, “I think we need to learn how to do all of that stuff, it’d be pretty awesome to be able to handle that kind of action coming our way. With Aslin that do you remember how he took out those Turned that were coming for us in the field one after another, we get some of those rifles like he has and we are going to be badass.”
                  “No you’ll have a bad ass gun Ellie. But don’t worry maybe Shaun and I can put in a good word for you see if he’s interested in showing us how to do some of this stuff that he can. I’m sure there’s a trick to it we just need him equally motivated to show us.”
                  Ellie said, “He seems to be pretty excited about the thought process of staying alive right? Well then I’m not sure what we are to worried about he teaches us how to survive and we keep him alive we watch each other’s back just like we do with everyone else in the group.”
                  Greg smiled saying, “Don’t worry we will talk to him. I’ll leave the two of you to talk for a minute. I’m not sure how much of that sappy crap I can hear from you guys. I need to g stand by Clary or something and get my testosterone back if I can I’m feeling pretty weak after this.”
                  Shaun waived sarcastically. “Thanks alot Greg I hate you. If you were to die today id’ like to make sure that you know that. I think that it is important for you to know that.”
                  Greg waved a finger over his shoulder in the air. “Don’t worry Shauny boy I love you the most honey. You know what you mean to me.”
                  Ellie laughed biting her bottom lip trying to refrain. “You guys know that you are both so weird right?”
                  “Shaun patted her shoulder as he walked by heading down the stairs, “We were weird far before the apocalypse came you know that i think.”

                  When the two boys got outside everyone was standing out there already Ellie came out behind them taking in the new group. She thought it probably best that not everyone was going who would know what was going to come at the base and those that couldn’t shoot or drive were just as good as useless. Joey was yelling at his brother, “You let me go I can help.”
                  Jordan was and Jen were both shaking their heads no and Joey was still trying to climb into the truck. He outweighed both of them and regardless of his shorter frame he had every ounce of muscle and probably some then that his brother Jordan did. Jen looked frail in comparison to the two brothers. She said, “Joey didn’t you say that you’d help Andy today. Him and Ellie said they were going to do some work around the farm.”
                  “I’m going with him. He needs me.”
                  Jordan said,
