Pausing as she heard Nicholas calling out that they'd found something, Catherine turned and rushed back up the street, joining him after a short delay. "What'd you find...," she started to say, pausing as she caught sight of something sticking out of the ground. "Whoa, whoa, don't go banging your foot around," Catherine said, waving over someone nearby. "Mark this spot with a flag and as soon as we get the immediate area swept, we'll come back and see what it is, alright?" she said
"Alright, sounds good" Nick said marking the spot with a flag then walked a good bit away from the area with Catherine and sent her a smile. "Who knows how many more artifacts we'll find babe." Nick said as he kissed her cheek and moved his fingers a little bit through her long brown hair with the smile still upon his face. "I'm not sure what the sleeping arrangements will be tonight, if the genders are separate, but you umm..." Nick paused a little bit as he blushed.
"Come on Nick, you can say it" He thought
"You wouldn't mind sleeping in the same room as me would you, if their's no gender separation?" Nick asked "Of course we won't um.. do anything more than kissing and cuddling." Nick felt himself beginning to grow flustered, but maintained his composure in front of her waiting patiently for a response from the doctor.

Nick felt himself beginning to grow flustered, but maintained his composure in front of her waiting patiently for a response from the doctor.
"Oh, you naughty, naughty boy, you," Catherine quietly said in a low mock horror voice, blushing all the while and trying not to let anyone but Nicholas see it...looking around, she quickly said, "Sure," wondering what was it that had Nicholas so fired up to start with. Quickly coming back down to earth, she knelt down near the artifact and whistled quietly. "Well, this sure beats a time capsule any day of the week," she said, whistling for someone to get one of their specialists over to examine it more closely, "but as Dr. McCoy would say, 'I'm a doctor, not a monuments expert!'," winking at Nicholas as she got back up to her feet and looked around, pausing as she looked out towards the setting sun and thought, its' starting to get dark around here awful quick....

Nick smirked at the joke and stood up as well, looking at the sunset. Man hopefully they examine this artifact soon. Nick thought as he smiled at Catherine. He hoped he hadn't jumped on asking her if they wanted to sleep in the same room to quickly, but regardless of that. He felt like things were going to turn out well for them. Nick looked down at the artifact and thought it was a stonehedge from South America, although he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
As the sun was setting deeper beyond the horizon, Nick felt a little bit tired, but he wasn't about to fall asleep on the job, not until the monuments expert examined the artifact.

Catherine stood and watched as one of their experts rushed over to take a look at what Nicholas had found; after about a minute's examination, the expert glumly looked up at them and gave them the bad news. "Its' not anything for a museum, guys," she told them. "Too much clay in the mix; this was likely buried in this area and with all the work they," pointing towards the Vermonters, "have likely put in securing this place, they probably knocked it up to the ground. I'm sorry, guys, she said remosrsefully.
"Don't sweat it," Catherine commiserated, "not everything's a pot of gold. Let's keep looking and see what we can find.."

Nick nodded and got out his pen and paper again, then sent a small smile towards Catherine before walking away to look for another artifact. Hmm seems like something else has to be here. He thought as he started walking up another street and didn't find a speck of anything. Continuing to walk up the street, he saw something catch his eye, it looked like something buried in the ground again, it looked like a little round hole sticking out of the ground, like what could be a jar. "I found something else guys." Nick turned and shouted back the way that he came and set a flag down to mark it.
He looked up at the sun and saw it slowly sinking even more, it wasn't totally night as the sun had just gone behind some buildings, but soon enough in about thirty or so minutes. The sun would go down and it would be dark out.

Before Catherine could say anything else, one of the Vermonters whistled several times and called out, "Sun's about to set; we gotta' head back inside, everyone!" waving to everyone and motioning back towards the stronghold. In the space of a few hours, the Monuments Group had covered a few blocks to the west and northwest of the University of Vermont central campus, but without adequate lighting, there was no reason to risk being outside the walls.
Looking over at Nicholas, Catherine slipped him a sly, wiry smile and said quietly, "Guess we gotta' head inside, babe," adding in a quiet yet distinctly sultry whisper as she walked over to him, "and we will be sharing a room together, I don't care what the rules are," giving him a wink as she spoke...

Nick smirked a little and placed his hand into the doctors. "Sounds good to me Cat." Nick said as they walked inside the stronghold together and Nick smiled at how well kept the university was, despite the Great Panic happening. They both walked down the hall together hand in hand and arrived at Cat's room, or more technically their room Then Nick opened the door for Catherine then walked in himself. The room was a bit spacious to him.
The room feels a little bit too big for my tastes. He thought as he took glances in the rooms in their room before walking back out to the couch and sitting down, patting the couch softly. "Hey kitty cat, come here." Nick said in a low whisper with a little smirk on his face, flirting playfully with the doctor. He'd never thought he would say kitty cat like that, but hey their was a first time for everything right. He watched her and wondered what she would do...

"Wow, this reminds me of my dorm room at USF," Catherine deadpanned, looking around the room; before she could say anything else, Nicholas invited her over to the couch, subtly adding, "Hey kitty cat, come here." Catherine smirked and thought, Kitty cat, huh? sliding herself across his lap instead of sitting down next to him, her arms looping themselves around his neck. "Kitty cat, huh?" she said, playfully biting her lip as she looked at him. "Well, if I'm your kitty cat, doesn't that make you my mountain lion? Strong and friendly and....," her voice falling silent as she leaned down and kissed him - gently at first, then with increasing passion. Pulling back for a moment, Catherine leaned forward and whispered to him, "Well, then...if I'm your kitty cat, does that mean you're going to try and tame me?" all but daring him to do something as they sat there....

Nick smiled and wrapped his arms around her hips. As soon as he felt her lean back he felt a small blush creep up on his face from the kiss. Happiness coursing through him. "Yes that does make me your mountain lion." He said leaning forward and placing a gentle kiss on her lips before leaning back with a small smile, then, pulling her closer. "Well then, if I'm your kitty cat, does that mean your going to try and tame me?"
He smirked and accepted the playful challenge "Yeah I'll tame you, my little kitty cat." He said as he leaned forward again, placing another gentle kiss on her lips. Then increasing the passion slowly, he moved his arms up to her shoulders, gently pushing her backwards, To where she would be down back first on the couch. He placed his hand on the back of her head as she softly landed on the couch, back first. He then leaned back from the kiss to let both of them get air, and moved his hands back to her shoulders, keeping her immobile, playfully of course. "How's that for taming you?" He smirked at her, waiting to see what she would do in turn...

Falling back onto the couch, Catherine smiled and looked up at Nicholas, mock struggling as he kept a firm grip on her shoulders, keeping her pinned to the couch but not in a malicious kind of way...especially after they kissed. Watching him as he smirked at her, she smiled even more and began pulling his shirt up with her hands, hooking one of her legs around his waist and upper legs to keep him from going anywhere. "It was a...good start," she whispered as she continued to pull his shirt up, pausing every little bit to undo her blouse button by button, "but you're nowhere near taming me, my mountain lion..."

He smirked even more "Oh yeah?" He asked playfully as he then looked at his shirt being pulled up and he helped her take it off the rest of the way. Feeling a sense of eerie calmness. Like a calm before the storm effect, so to speak. He smiled at her "Hmm, really like seeing my amazing physique." He giggled "You should be liking it, I only got this body because I am a wrestling! god" He said lifting his arm up to emphasize his point as he vividly remembered that line from the wrestling show Friday Night Smackdown in 2003. Hoping she would remember who said that line. But he remembered it well. His wrestling friend John Layfield said it
But as he started moving his hand down to his pants. He didn't feel right, he heard a little voice in his mind "Don't do it" He said to himself in his mind feeling an enormous invisible weight push against his brain. His mind then went completely blank, he still saw Catherine but he only saw an evil demonic face looking back at him, through him even. Ever so beckoning him to remove his pants, get the show on the road...

After a minute or two of heavy making out between them, Catherine paused and stopped, preferring instead to simply rest with Nicholas next to her, her knight in shining armor, her mountain lion ready to protect her from the demons outside. "We'll have plenty of time to do more someday," Catherine whispered, not wanting to ruin anything by rushing things too fast or too soon, "in the meantime, let's get some rest; we got a long day ahead of us..." pausing as she got comfortable on the couch, resting beside Nicholas as the tendrils of sleep slowly began to overtake both of them....Nicholas, if you want to skip up to the next day, go ahead and do so...

Nick took in some deep breaths after they finished their long make out session and sent her a small smile. "Yeah we will have plenty of time." He said softly back to her. He also greatly preferred this, he knew he didn't want to move things too fast, he just wanted to rest with Catherine. His trusted companion, his lover, his kitty cat. "I agree, some shuteye would be good." He said softly as he felt his eyelids slowly closing, but not before getting out a clean blanket from his backpack and putting himself and Cat under it. He wrapped his arm around her and laid her head gently on his shoulder. "Night kitty cat." He smiled a little, kissing her forehead before sleep overtook him.
Morning
As the suns rays gently shined through the dim room on the former University of Vermont campus. Nicholas slowly opened his eyelids, seeing the suns rays, he rubbed his eyes and looked around, checking his watch it was about 8:45 and he had gone to sleep at around 9:00. But that's freaking impossible! I've never slept for a whole night ever since I was in fifth grade" He thought before seeing Catherine next to him, snoring softly. "Thanks babe, you helped me get the best sleep I've had since finding New York. He thought as he, slowly got up, being very, very quiet, so as to not wake Catherine up from her peaceful slumber and stretched a little bit away from the couch so as to not disturb her.

After what seemed like the longest and deepest sleep Catherine had ever had in years - or at least since the world fell apart - she began to slowly awaken from her slumber, stirring herself awake to the sounds of Nicholas in the next room. Looking around a moment or two, she sat up on the couch and noticed that it was fully daylight outside; shaking her head, she called out, "I think we overslept, Nicholas," with a trace of deadpan in her voice, though she also knew they both needed that long overnight slumber, so it was alright if they overslept....we just don't want to make it a habit, she bemused, getting up and walking over to the window to look outside, wondering what adventures would await them today...

"Yeah, sure seems like it." Nick said to her as he came out of the bathroom in a change of clothes for the new day. He walked over to her and placed his hand on her shoulder. Giving her a gentle kiss on the lips, he slowly pulled back with a little blush on his face then turns to looks out the window. " I can't wait to see what adventures await us today." Nick said to Catherine, stroking her hair like a kitty and letting out a playful roar with a grin planted on his face.

"Beautiful day outside," Catherine replied, standing next to Nicholas and lightly blushing as they stood there, smiling a broad, winsome smile. Noticing the change of clothes Nicholas was wearing, Catherine added, "Now, if you'll excuse me, your kitty cat needs to put on a new set of clothes," walking over and grabbing a clean set and heading over to the bathroom. "I will return shortly, my mountain lion!" she whispered, wagging her finger in the air in a friendly, humorous way as she ducked inside to change clothes.

Nick giggled at her humorous finger wagging and waited for her to come out of the bathroom in a clean set of clothes. I wonder where we are going to go next, after we finish up here in Vermont. Nick thought as the former pro wrestler scratched his chin. We could either end up going to Detroit or Pennsylvania, but no one has given us another objective. He sighed, albeit very deeply and waited, staring out the window at the beautiful sunrise. How did I ever get this lucky? He thought as he smiled at how beautiful the day was as he patiently waited for the kitty cat to come out.

After a few minutes to freshen up and change clothes, Catherine stepped out, ready to go; wearing jeans, hiking boots and an oversized sweatshirt which had the University of Vermont mascot and colors on it. Walking past Nicholas for the door, she playfully wagged her finger once more and joked, "I'm modestly dressed for the day, aren't I, my mountain lion?" chuckling as she opened the door and stepped out into the hallway, ready to get the day started...

While everyone else headed off to their assignments in/around Burlington, Laura headed over to the university's pistol range to begin getting everyone qualified in the art - if one could call it that, she thought - of using a handgun. Seeing the first group of a dozen Vermonters standing along the firing line, Laura - dressed as she normally was most days - called out to them. "Alright, everyone, gather round," she said, motioning for them to join her.
Once they did, she began speaking to them in a calm, practiced instructor's tone of voice. "Today, you're going to learn the art of handling those firearms you're carrying, either at your hip or in a thigh holster; my advice for those with the latter would be to find a hip holster and use that until you're comfortable with a thigh rig. That said, let's begin," pausing to point down towards the targets at the other end of the firing range. "Down the way there are your targets; pretend their walkers, bandits, insurgents...Republicans - whatever makes you happy," bringing a light chuckle to the air. "They're coming this way and you have to stop them with your sidearm; now most of you carry rifles with you - those M1 Garands we saw yesterday; good rifle, by the way - but you need to learn how to use your piece."
Pointing towards the firing line, Laura continued. "Go ahead and step up to the tables there; set your sidearms and extra ammo down in front of you," pausing as the group did as they were told; once they were ready, she said, "When I give the signal, load your sidearm and be ready to fire," waiting several seconds before going, "Step up to the line and load."
Once they were done with that step, Laura said, "Alright, aim for the targets," followed by "Fire!" Twelve sets of pistols - most semi-automatics plus a few revolvers - began firing, a mix of rounds going downrange, hitting sandbag-covered targets with large thunk sounds coming from the target end of the firing range. When everyone was finished firing, Laura called out, "Cease fire! Cease fire!" followed by "Make sure your weapons are empty, then set them down on the table in front of you." As the dozen shooters proceeded to do so, Laura added, "Once everyone's weapons are down and cleared, walk down, grab your target papers and bring them so I can look at them. Let's look alive, everyone!" she finished with, knowing she had a long, long day ahead of her...and this is just pistol training, she mused.

Nick chuckled softly as he was also wearing brown hiking boots, blue jeans and a sweatshirt with the colors of the University on it. "Yeah, but you forgot one tiny detail." He said as he walked out the door to the hallway, turned the doctor around slowly, then planted a gentle and ever growing passionate kiss on her lips. He played with her hair a little bit. and placed his hand in the doctors. "Let's go out there and see what will happen today." He wore a smile on his face as he started walking down the hallway and came outside the compound, wondering what would happen.
