Sean nodded as Ralse said he would keep him posted. “Thanks.” Sean replied. He then watched Ralse leave and focused his attention on Lila. He nodded as she said she was already starting and that he could join when he was done. “Alright.” He spoke with a smile. “I won’t be long.” He added.
He put his cup in the sink and then walked past Jonah, smiling at is friend. He then stopped and turned around. “I’ll explain the part about supply counting when I’m done.” He spoke before proceeding to walk upstairs.
Sean then walked upstairs to his room, grabbed some fresh clothes and walked over to the bathroom. He took off his boxer and jumped in the shower.
Few moments later….
Sean got out, a shower always made him feel refreshed. He grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist, wearing it like a skirt. He cleaned the mirror above the little sink, since it was damped. He looked at his face and smiled at himself, even winked, Sean was weird like that, but always thought there was nothing wrong with loving yourself. Besides he was happy with what he build together with his group, so why not be happy?

Jonah smiled at the sight of the smile on Sean's face. His brow raised slightly. Blue eyes remained on the swaying sides that were Sean's shoulder. Going down an invisible trail down to his ass where the blue peepers remained glued. A chill ran over his skin giving him goosebumps as the strange feeling crept in. When Sean turned around suddenly Jonah's usually pale cheeks were scarlet. It wasn't until he kindly added that it was just to tell him about counting after his shower. As if their was any other reason for Sean to suddenly turn? Jonah was not staring at Sean in a weird way. Most certainly in not the way that made his pants feel uncomfortable or in the way that would haunt his dreams tonight and make it hard to sleep.
Jonah smiled at Sean before watching his pal go off to the shower.. He sighed while leaned against a near by wall. His mind still running over the mental image of Sean in his boxers. The sound of the shower running upstairs could be heard and it only fueled the very catholic and straight mans imagination. Then there was the sudden feeling of pressure over his waist and someone else's breathing over his ear. "What is..." It was that son of a bitch Alfred again being all weird and shit. He pushed Alfred away while crossing his chest defensively before remembering exactly what he had wanted to tell Sean.
Jonah turned away and off upstairs in haste for the shower door. Knocking on the door a five times in rapid succession before grasping the knob and barging in. He was certain that somewhere long ago his mother had told him that seeing anything close to pirn would make him blind. Well the sight of that towel hanging around his friends hips made all blood going to his brain feel as if it stopped. A weird groan escaped his lips involuntarily as his deep blue eyes took in the sight of Sean Delfino.
"Eeeeeeeeemmmmmmmmm" the noise came out without any sign of forming words. Jonah finally peeled his eyes from Sean and toward the mirror that was still thankfully fogged. The pale young man wasn't thinking straight as he stumbled forward pushing Sean back into the shower as his shaking hands wrote in the fogged mirror. 'Alfred keeps touching me in weird places.' Jonah couldn't put penis or ass on that mirror. His eyes were still trying to to get rid of the glorious image of a Sean in a state that he had fantasized about more then just a roommate should.

Sean was about to lose the towel and get dressed as he heard knocks followed by the door being bashed open. He looked in the direction of the noise and raised an eyebrow as he saw Jonah. “Come in.” he joked, making fun off the fact he didn’t wait for him to sya it was ok to open the door.
But then Sean noticed Jonah was upset by something. “You ok?” he asked worried. But he didn’t reply, instead he sort of groaned followed by a long eeeehm. Sean had no idea what was happening. Sean then stepped closer to him, so check on him, but Jonah stumbled forward, causing Sean to be pushed back in the shower, nearly tripping. Sean grabbed the faucet, causing the water to make him all wet again, the tower also got soaking wet, nearly falling off Sean.
Sean immediately pushed the faucet so the water stopped. He looked at Jonah, still no clue what was going on and then noticed the message on the mirror. “He did what?” Sean asked angry. “Well he’s gonna regret that!” he added. Sean didn’t even bother asking if Jonah was certain, he trusted his friend and the problem would be dealt with right away, Jonah had been through enough.
Sean stepped out of the shower and grabbed his boxer, now standing with his back to Jonah. He threw down the towel, exposing his ass and put on his boxer. If the boxer had been on the other side of the room, Jonah would have even seen more than just an ass. Sean didn’t bother showing off, he liked all off his body parts, besides he was way too angry to worry about something like this.
He stormed out of the bathroom, his chest and hair still wet and ran downstairs. He could already see Alfred. “What the fuck is your problem mate?” he asked trying to control his anger, if he didn’t do that he would just smacked his fist against Alfred his cheek. But he was the leader of this place now, he couldn’t just hit people whenever something happened. “Why did you touch Jonah, when he didn’t want you to touch him!” he yelled.
Was Sean over reacting? And why was he overreacting? Was he worried about Jonah or some sort of jealous, because someone touched his friend, or just furious because someone did something to him against his will. He didn’t know but he was angry as hell.

Jonah felt his cheeks turn red with warmth at the sight of Sean's ass. He groaned softly under his breath adjusting his pants when Sean's back was turned away. Why must he be exposed to such sights in one day? The image of Sean in just underwear would be forever burned into the young man's mind. Always ready to make his breathing feel struggled and pants feel tight.
The blue eyed young man hadn't any idea where Sean had went after the outburst. He could hear him but everything that was said before leaving went through one ear and out the other. All Jonah was sure of was that he needed new underwear. He spent a moment or two longer standing in the bathroom with a dazed look over his face before going off toward his bedroom to change.
Meanwhile Alfred stared back at a very pissed off and adorable Sean. He crossed his arms over his chest defensively as an annoyed sigh came out. "Cat must have his tongue because I didn't hear any complaints." His blue eyes taking in the delightful sight of Sean all hot and wet at the same time. Alfred thought over what was said and shrugged his shoulders before letting his hands down trying to play nice. "Look I'm sorry for touching your boyfriend. I didn't know he was your little ghost that haunts your dreams." Alfred said jokingly with a smirk. Giving Sean a big smile as he clearly liked what he saw.

Lila didn't want to stay in the house as Sean wanted to go shower and get dressed. That was far too awkward for her, so she decided to just head out and wait. As the others drove off, she moved her gaze back to the house where Aaron was staying before looking down the porch towards the gates of the complex. Maybe she would start there and work her way around. She didn't know too much about fence building or any of that, but she was a good shot and that was good enough to keep them all safe.
She took a few steps down towards the road where Sean would be able to see her from the top window, keeping the gun at her side as she started towards the front gate that had just been closed up by the leaving party. She was the one that wanted to scout today, but maybe tomorrow she could head out on her own and help out a bit more. She knew what she was looking for, but she wasn't quite sure where she would find the guns and ammo.
She had grand ideas to start their own bullet press which would require a great amount of work using old car parts and finding actual black powder. She also wanted to find some maps and scout the roads a little more. At the gate, she would wait for Sean and see what their next moves would be.

Sean was furious when he heard Alfred his reaction, even more than before. He barely heard the part about the boyfriend and ghost that was haunting his dreams. He didn’t reply this time, well not with words at least, instead he slammed his fist against Alfred his cheek.
Sean saw how he stepped back, because of the impact of his fist. But once more he didn’t let Alfred time to react, instead he grabbed his arm and dragged him to the front door, pushing him outside. “Now you stay out and think about your actions, you can come back when you are ready to apologize, jerk.” Sean yelled, before he slammed the door shut.
The man then made his way upstairs back to Jonah, he walked to the door of his bedroom and knocked. Without waiting he walked in, they had been friends for ages, so waiting for a yes was not needed. He saw Jonah standing in his boxers. His anger had calmed, hitting Alfred and throwing him out made sure all the anger was gone.
Sean had no clue, why he was standing in his boxer, but he didn’t care, he wanted to let his friend know he was there for him. He walked closer to Jonah. “I threw Alfred out for now, told him to only come back when he is ready to apologize.” He spoke. “I think my fist on his cheek, helped him to realize he was wrong.” He spoke with a chuckle.
He then walked closer and pulled Jonah in a hug. “I will always be there for you whenever you need me.” He whispered softly. “I won’t let anything happen to you, not again.” He added. Then he slowly let go and stepped back. “I will be out with Lila, you keep counting the things we have in stock, but keep the front and back door locked, until I’m back.” He spoke looking at him. “Also just to be sure, keep a gun with you, I want you to be safe Jonah, I wouldn’t forgive myself if something else happened to you my friend.” He added. “Stay safe.” He spoke with a smile, followed by a wink.
Then he turned around, making his way to his own bedroom. He walked in, grabbed his clothes and got dressed. He then took his katana and shotgun and made his way outside, he waited for about five minutes, until he heard Jonah locking the door. Then he walked off and searched for Lila.
Soon he noticed she was by the gate. He jogged over to her smiling. “I finally made it, got some trouble with the new one, but it’s taken care of.” He spoke with a smile.

Lila waited at the gate for Sean, milling about, making sure the gates were secure, which they were, for the most part. She saw a few holes that needed to be taken care of and while she was waiting for Sean, she decided to try and work with what she had. Her fingers tried to put together wires that were sticking out. She wished she had some tools to work with and she made a mental note to go around the neighborhood to try and find some. Her guns were good for protection but that's about all she had.
She heard someone running up behind her which made her stop working on the fence. When she turned around she saw Sean jogging over and speaking with a smile about the new arrival and having some trouble with him.
She still considered herself to be a newcomer to the group but so far they accepted her and she was thankful for that, especially after that first meeting.
"What do you mean trouble? What happened?"
She turned around and leaned against the post that was holding up the gate, more so to test how strong it was then to try and look coy or sexy for Sean. She knew he wasn't into that anyways. She wrapped her hands around the post and pushed a few times, seeing that it was pretty stable. They would all have to be tested like this and it was an all day project.
Sebastian had been walking for hours. His feet were sore, and the rocks kicked up as he trudged along. He hadn't slept much last night, decided for an early start. But he could feel his body becoming groggy, sleepy. It wasn't that late in the day and he was already tired. All he could do was run his eyes and keep going.
Then he came upon it, the large fence going all the way around. It was a solid, clearly able to withstand a lot. As he got closer he pulled out his sniper, looking down at the small section of houses, or people below. He couldn't see much, the wall covering most of it. But what he did note was a scary looking gate, and a watch tower.
Seemed empty for the time being. Move down to the gate he noticed two figures, one male, one female. They didn't look much older him, but he couldn't be sure. All he knew was there, actual people. The sun caught the end of his scope gliding him. Sebastian quickly pulled away and rubbed his eyes. He hoped no one saw it, the sun catching his scope. It would light up like a beacon agaisnt the hills.
He quickly stood up, moving down the hill. The sniper rifle went to his back as he trucked slog the grass toward the fence. He needed a closer look, without being spotted. He doubted he could be so lucky though,

Sean heard as Lila asked what happened. He sighed as he looked at her, not because she asked, but because when he thought about what he did it made him angry. “He was totally out of order.” Sean spoke. “He touched Jonah, like pretty intimate, Jonah didn’t want it, he kept doing it.” Sean spoke as he slightly felt he was getting angry again. “The poor guy couldn’t yell or anything, I let him meet my fist, threw him out and told him to think about his actions and that he could get back into the house, whenever he was ready to apologize.” He spoke. “Anyways let’s not think about it anymore, it makes me angry all over again.” He spoke slightly smiling.
He then watched as Lila stood in front of him. He smiled as Lila tested the durability. “I’m glad you take the job serious.” He spoke looking at her. Then he heard how she asked where to start. “Well I think it would….” But he stopped mid sentence as a bright light was shining right in his eyes. He looked in the direction and saw someone jumping away.
Sean immediately grabbed Lila her arm and pulled her towards the brick wall, that was connected to the gate, so they were out of sight. “We got company.” He whispered. “Someone that has got a scope on his gun, that is what caused the light to shine in my eyes, that is how I saw him or her.” Sean said as tried to peek from behind the wall, through the very thin opening where the wall was connected to the gate. “I say someone take the watchtower, point a gun at him, while the other one goes through the gate with another gun?” Sean asked looking at Lila for her opinion. "Also, after this, help me remind, that the watchtower needs to be manned all the time." he added.

Lila looked at Sean as she leaned against the post, figuring her weight and the fact it didn't move was a good sign. Not that she was terribly heavy and she probably not the one that needed to be testing her weight against. Maybe Allen would wake up and get his strong ass out here to do it. But when Sean spoke about the new guy touching Jonah, she started to get pissed.
"What? What the fuck Sean? We can't let someone like that stay here! It should make you angry! What if he comes over to my place, or Ralse, or any of us and gets in and does the same thing? I can guarantee if he comes to me you'll hear one..only one...gunshot. That will be the end of that."
And she wouldn't care either. "We gotta think about it Sean. He can't get away with that with just a punch and a stern warning. I'll make sure his sorry ass don't do that again."
She was about to go off about the Texas justice she would serve up but she stopped short when the flicker of light caught her attention from outside the fence. It shined against Sean's face like a mirror reflecting the sun and just like that..it was gone. That was no car going by or a piece of broken glass. That was something else.
Next thing she knew, she was being yanked by Sean away from the fence and towards a wall that just may be able to deflect or take the impact of a bullet but she had no idea what kind of weapons whoever it was out there had.
"How do you know it wasn't someone trying to signal for help?" She pulled her own gun out from the holster at her jeans and held it tightly. She was a good shot and they both knew it. She could cover Sean if he wanted to go see who or what that was.
"I'll take the watch tower. You need to go find out who that is. You're in charge here after all. You get to make the call who comes and who goes."
She started towards the tower, making sure to quickly hustle across to climb the rickety ladder that would probably need to be replaced with something a little more sturdy. She hoped Ralse and company would come back with a bounty of supplies. "I got your back Sean. I'm a good shot. I've been trained for this shit. Go."
As she climbed up the ladder, she took her time taking the precarious steps, skulking down into the little hunter's platform that had been transformed so she could get a good aim once she saw who was outside.
Sebastian ran to the fence. He sprinted as fas as he could, pressing hismelf up agaisnt the stone wall. He knew the tower couldn't see him, not if he pressed himself close enough. The tower wasn't at the right angle, meant to look out at the permitter, not at the fence itself. There wasn't many people patrolling, he saw two people. Maybe they didn't have much, or were inexperienced.
He continued along, opting to sling his rifle on his back. Looking around he saw the gate. The blonde was gone, but the other guy was still there. He didn't know what he was doing, but he was armed, and visible through a crack. Sebastian continued along, came in front of the gate. He raised his arms up, showing his weapons were holstered.
"Anyone there? Hello. I'm unarmed, I don't want any trouble," he said calmly, hands still in the air, hands open. He looked at the man on the other side of the gate, only a few more years older than him by the looks of it. "Can you let me in, just for the night. Out of the danger, in the gates. I won't cause trouble."

Lila seemed angry about the whole Alfred part. Sean was used to people saying he had a short temper and got angry for no reason. Jonah didn’t like him that way, so because of that Sean tried to tone himself down. But hearing Lila her reaction made him realize he might have been a little too kind to Alfred.
Sean didn’t say anything to Lila he just listened and nodded and with every word she said, he realized even more that she was right. But it all had to wait, since at that moment the flash appeared. Lila asked Sean how he was so sure it was a scope and not someone signaling for help. “Good point, but either way, we have to be careful.” He replied. “So I mostly react with caution and get myself and people I care for to safety, before thinking.” He added.
He noticed Lila got her gun out and he did the same. He heard how Lila said she would take the watchtower and since he was in charge it was his responsibility to find out who was out there. Sean nodded in agreement and was glad people accepted him as leader, or well at least Lila did. “You are right.” He replied. “Not only about how it’s my task, but about everything, when this is done I’ll find Alfred and throw him out of Sunrise.” He spoke. “I don’t want anything else to happen.” He added.
He watched Lila climb the watchtower, telling him she got his back. “Thanks and I know you will, I trust you.” He spoke with a smile. “Careful though, be safe.” He added.
Sean slowly walked towards the gate, gun raised and stood still for a brief moment, thinking about a good plan. But then he was surprised, he heard a voice, so he looked up. He saw a guy standing there and immediately raised is gun, he figured he made his way there while talking or at least made it to the wall, that would be reason why Lila didn’t notice anything.
The guy had his arms up in the air, Sean did notice his holstered guns though, so he kept his guard up. The stranger told him he didn’t want trouble and was just looking for a place to stay for the night. He then asked to let him in, promising he wouldn’t be trouble.
Sean looked at him, but for now kept his gun aimed. “Hi there.” He spoke. “Everyone is welcome here, even for longer than a night, at least if you have a good heart.” Sean spoke. “This world is bad enough as it is, Sunrise doesn’t need bad people causing trouble.” He added. “Anyways back to business.” He spoke. “Like I said we could use more people, but that is up to you.” He said looking at the guy. “If you want to come inside just for the night, that’s possible too.” He added.
For now he didn’t look in any other direction, he kept his eyes on the guy and was sure Lila had a clear view too, since he was standing in front of the gate. “We do have some rules, before we let people in.” he spoke. “You will hand all you weapons over, when coming in, then I will search you for more, if you lie and I find anything, then you will be kicked out.” He spoke stern, but trying to be friendly. “Second rule, you will stay in one of our houses, room locked during the night.” He said. “If you decide to stay longer, you will get your own place, once we think you can be trusted.” He added. “You will also get a knife, to defend yourself against walkers or other things.” He spoke. “If you agree, I’ll open the gate.” He added.
Sean paused for a brief second looking at him, he had to admit, he seemed like a good guy, but one could never be sure. “Those where the rules, other than that all that is left for me is an introduction.” He spoke finally giving the poor guy a smile. “I’m Sean.” He spoke. “That up there is Lila.” He spoke just nodding his head in the direction, but keeping his gun up. “You are?” he asked looking at him.

Lila went up to the watch tower but what she was looking for when she got to the top was gone. Her eye was trained far away as she looked for movement in the brush outside the gate and when she saw nothing, she pulled the gun down and looked again, against the sun that had risen and was shining brightly. She didn't see anything but she heard the voice down below as Sean opened the gate.
Immediately she trained her gun on the kid that came up explaining he was unarmed and didn't want trouble. She watched him closely not caring if that was the truth or not. She heard Sean welcoming him, saying that everyone was welcomed with open arms, but with her gun trained on the kid, that may not necessarily be the truth. She had a hardened look on her normally soft and feminine features and that was for good reason. She wanted this kid to think she meant business from the other side of her weapon.
But it looked like Sean had him handled and she trained her eyes back on the horizon. She spoke loudly after the introductions were made.
"Are you alone or are there more?" She wasn't about to take any chances and he wanted to know if the kid was lying. She was going to fire off a shot or two in the direction she thought he came from, just to test it but she wanted to see how honest he was going to be with Sean first.
It was bad enough they had to deal with one potential danger inside the gates. The last thing any of them needed was a second danger. She hoped, even after breaking his collarbone, that Aaron would still have her back. She had felt pretty bad about all that. Their night together...and his leaving to protect her so she wouldn't be taken by slavers. All a genuine misunderstanding. She missed texting for that very reason.
"I'm gonna test you no matter what you say, boy." Spoken in her Texas twang and proudly so. Sean was far more welcoming then she was.
"Wait,must like that," Sebastin asked, looking at the man who spoke. "You're just going to let me in, nk questions on who I am, what I've done. Just take my gun and let me in the gate." It sounded essy, to easy. He didn't know what to do. They were just gonna let him in, like nothing. He smelled a trap, but they seemed like good people.
"If I hand over my weapons do I get them back when I leave," he asked looking back toward the hills. The woman in the tower said she'd test him, no matter what he said. "A test, like what? Written? Oral? Physical test." He looked at the man again. "I'm alone. Have been for awhile. I'm a sniper," he motioned to the rifle on his back. "If I was alone, why would I come up to the gate."
He looked behind him again, to the hills. "I can agree to the rules. Just let me inside, I have a pistol and my rifle. As well as my own knife.myou can have them. I just need a place to rest for the night. Maybe longer if it's safe. But for the night for sure." He looked up at the tower at the woman again. "That's the only rules? And do I have a guarantee I'll get my gun back. Otherwise no go."
Sebastian looked at the fence, and the hill behind him one more time. "I'm Sebastian," he said after their introduction, "last group called be Bas."
Post by Sean Delfino on Aug 18, 2016 15:17:34 GMT -5
Sean heard how the new guy asked if that was all, no questions asked. He shook his head. “I didn’t say that, but no guns, is easier to talk.” Sean replied. “When you hand them over, we will go over to the question round.” He added with a small smile. Sean then nodded to his second question. “If you decide to only stay one night and you want to leave, you will get them back.” He replied.
After that Sean heard how Lila asked if he was alone. He would have asked that too, once he handed over his weapons, but he liked that Lila was alert. She also told him she would test him. Sean liked how Lila, in combination with him was handling the situation. The guy replied asking what kind of test. “Guess you’ll have to find out.” He replied looking at him. Next up the guy started to explain he was a sniper and that he was alone and had been for a long time. He also added that if he wasn’t alone, there was no reason to come up to the gate alone. “Well these days you never know.” Sean replied. Meanwhile he was thinking about what he said, a sniper is always good to have, but he wasn’t going to force anything.
Sean heard how he agreed to the rules, after that he told Sean what kind of weapons he had with him. The guy then said it was one night and maybe more if it was safe, he also asked for a guarantee to get his gun back whenever he left. Sean nodded. “Those are the only rules, for now.” He said. “If you decide to stay we will talk tasks and some other rules.” He added.
Then he stepped one step closer. “First you lay all you weapons on the ground, then I open the gate, I take them, search you for more.” He spoke. The guy then finally introduced himself as Sebastian. “Well Bas, you’ll get it back if you decide to leave, but for now do as I asked.” Sean spoke.
Olivia sat on a fallen tree. Her boots pressed in to the dirt, the stick in her hand drawing a circle. They had seen the walls from the road, took cover in the trees. Sebastian went to investigate, O stayed back. He would meet or, or try and contact her if it was safe. If not, he would escape and find her. That was the plan, that was always the plan. He took the risk, insisted on it.
So she sat back, gun in the holster at her hip. She stretched out her legs and peered down at the gate. She could make out Sebastian and the two guards talking. He looked uneasy, she didn't like it. She did all she could to not run to his side. But that wasn't the plan. She'd wait for the signal. She knew what to look for.
If it was safe, he'd get her inside. If not, or he was unsure he would simply wait. Maybe sneak her some food. It was what they had been doing for the last few weeks. It worked so far.

"You wanna know the test? Alright then." She cocked her gun and aimed for the brush where he possibly just came from. He could have come from any side really, but if she started shooting out into the wilds, if there were others with him, they would likely have to dodge a bullet or two. Or just think she was crazy for shooting at them.
She looked down at Sebastian again with a raised brow before turning back and firing off three shots. Once to the east, a little more centered for the next shot, then another shot just beyond that, forking off. The bullets whizzed by leaves, singing whatever they came in contact with until they finally fell to the ground, lost in the forest to her.
She knew Sean wouldn't like that little test, but she was ready to fire off more bullets to flush anyone out.
"So, anyone with you or you want me to keep testing?" She wasn't aiming to kill anyone or anything. She wanted to know if there were others. He never said he was alone, but he acted that way if he wanted to come in and get some rest for just a night.
She looked down at Sean who was telling the kid to lay down his weapons. "It's the same rule for all of us. Lay down your weapons. You'll get them back, as long as you ain't lying." Her southern drawl was heavy now as she turned back and faced outside the wall. She checked the chamber again and saw three more bullets left. There were more in the truck and she could re-load easily but she really wanted to leave these bullets in tact ..just in case.
"So, should I fire off more? Who knows? It's possible I hit something...or...someone."
She took aim and continued to speak. "I guess I should tell you me and my family owned a gun shop and range. I was out there every day from when I was a little girl hitting bulls eyes fifty yards out." She could stretch the truth a little if that meant saving the entirety of the group.
Sebastian started to take his rifle off and set it down. Sean wanted it on the ground, but he felt uneasy. What if these guys weren't as nice as they seemed. If they kept the weapons, held him captive. What would happen to Olivia? Would she even be able to hesr from him? Or would he be held here, and her forced to be on her won again. After these last few weeks, he couldn't see her by herself.
"Okay I'll remove my weapons. As long as I'm promised to get them back," he said calmly, he really liked his sniper rifle. It would be. A shame to loose it. "Do I get to keep my own knife, or will one be given to me?" He looked back one last time. He held out his rifle and pistol and looked at Sean. His eyes went up to Lila as she slowly spoke.
Lila started shooting aiming for the trees. Sebastian looked in shock. It was right where he came from, where Olivia was in the trees. He looked back at Sean, trying to get a read on him. He then looked up at Lila, grabbing his rifle and aiming it at the trees. He was looking, trying to see Oliivia, see if she was safe. She had to be.
He turned back to Lila, lowering his rifle. "Are you craz. You're going to draw every Walker in the dam state this way with thst shooting," he yelled up at her. Looking at Sean he tried to meet his eyes. "Do you serious let this happen? This can't be safe." He looked back at the trees. "She's gob to drag a hoarde on top of us."
Sebastian stepped away from the gate. "I don't know if this is safe. If this is how the people here act."

Sean was glad when Sebastian agreed to lay down his weapons. But that all changed, when Lila spoke, she told him he could know the test and started shooting in the direction he came from. Sean was about to yell at her, why would she do something like this. He had to agree it was a good test, but one they might come off as crazy and two the noise would attract walkers.
He was about to speak up, when all of the sudden Bas raised his gun and also aimed in the direction, Lila was shooting. That in combination with his panic, made Sean realize, that there had to be something out there. A person, hidden weapons, seeing how he reacted, he knew it was something valuable.
Sean heard how Bas asked if they were crazy and how the gunshots would draw walkers, he then locked eyes with Sebastian as he asked if he was just going to let Lila continue. Sean raised his free hand up, while keeping his gun on Sebastian. “That’s enough Lila.” He spoke calm. Normally he would start to yell, since the guy was right, it would draw walkers near, but he had to admit that Lila her plan worked, his reaction let them all know, something was hidden there, that is at least what Sean thought. So for now Lila wouldn’t get any blame, maybe when he had her alone, he could give her a warning, to talk things through first. Cause it might have been a good idea, but testing people like this was wrong, what if he wasn’t a liar, it would scare them all away. So a talk would be needed, after all this.
Sean watched him step away from the gate. “Look man, if you had been honest with us, then there wouldn’t have been a reason for Lila to start shooting.” Sean said as he looked at him, locking eyes. “I saw your reaction, something or someone is out there.” He added. “There is one thing I hate, maybe even more then walkers and that is liars.” He spoke calm. “I’ll ask you once last time for the truth.” He said looking at him and before letting his eyes move to Lila for a brief second. “If you are honest, we will be kind, if you lie, you’ll just make us angry.” He spoke looking back at him. “We aren’t crazy, just careful.” He added.
Olivia watched the gate, continued to was Bas talk to those who were gonna let him inside. She was surprised she didn't see more. More people, gawkers and lookyloos. She saw no one, just the man and woman asking Sebastian the questions. She wondered what they were saying. Probably asking him to hand over weapons, maybe if he was alone, or what he did before the outbreak.
She hoped he was okay. Her eyes shifted to the woman in the tower, flinching as a shot was fired. The woman fired again, and again into the trees. She was aiming for soemthing, sprays and shooting blindly. Each shot was loud, echoed in the quiet morning air. Olivia flinched at every shot. As the woman fired in the trees, she could only get low, and watch.
A bullet flew by her, smacking into a tree. Bark splintered, and wood went everywhere, in the grass and dirt. Olivia remained low, another bullet flying overhead. She cradled her way back into the woods, further into the brush. She couldn't stay out, what if they saw her. She would come back later, wait for the signal. Right now she needed to stay low, and out of sight.
Making her way through the forest she came tried to keep enough distance from the place that a scope couldn't see her. But as long as she was still in range of the signal. It would be fine. She knew what to look for. It wouldn't happen till night anyway. Let's just hope these were good people, and could be trusted.
