The slug squashes with an audible squirt, small splashes of black blood are expelled from it and it stops moving. Emily has blood pouring from her open mouth, she is no longer breathing.
Jennifer cannot see any danger but feels uneasy.

After making sure the slug was dead James resumed his search for the men he had seen a few minutes ago. "There where a couple of men in camouflage sneaking about. Can any of you see them now?"

Leon baulked at the sound of the slug being squished, strangely he found that more disturving than seeing one of his newly found companions laying dead on the road, but when you live on the streets you learn not to make firm attachments. He reluctantly turned his ashen face towards James, he had this dread that the slug would suddenly spring to life and make a grab for one of them, but if there were more knife wielding maniacs about then it made sense not to be taken by surprise. Craning his neck Leon scans the road for the slightest movement

Leon just feels as if he is being watched, however James sees a collection of five men now sticking to the shadows and slowly making their way towards the vehicle.

[Xaztam]

James tells the others where the men are and how many he sees. "I think it best if you where all away from here quickly."

[Dehoffren]

"C'mon lets get in this car and get out of here before we lose another one of us. We'll be safer in it than out here " Leon moved towards the car the hair on the back of his neck tingling as adrenalin filled his pores. His hand rested on the knife that James had given him, his uneasy feeling making him twise as likely to use it

Jennifer suddenly realising the mounting tension around her and a little in relief at surviving the horror she had just seen, she stumbles into the back of the car and motions for marcus to join her quickly,

Alyssa starts the car, seeing the men stalking them. She feels a little sick, as well as a little guilty as when everyone is aboard she drives off leaving Emily's still warm and bleeding body to watch their retreat.

Short, sharp intakes of breathe could be heard from the rear seat of the car as Leon struggled to calm his heart rate. His longing for a nip of whiskey was at a peak mainly induced by the stressfull situation they had found themselves in. Drawing both his hands down his cheeks exaggerating the length of his face "Just put as much distance as you can between us and the slug creatures" he snapped "I don't care where we go, there's nothing to keep me here". As the words escaped his mouth Leon's alcohol riddled memory bought to the surface a picture of his wife, Linda. Briefly he wonder what fate had befallen his loved one, but the pain that this thought inflicted only sought to heighten his need of a drink further, so as normal, Leon pushed his thoughts and feeling back in to his subconscious.

"Lock those doors and get seat belts on if you can!" says Alyssa, voice distorted by her dryed up mouth, who hits the lock button with her elbow while quickly buckling. She puts the car in reverse with shaking hands so she can back away from the approaching men and turns on her high beams to blind them and give the others a better view. Craning her neck to see out the rear windows she backs as quickly as she can until coming to a cross street, shifts into forward gear, and hits the gas to get as far away from the terrible site as she can.

"Anyone know the best way to the highway? Wider roads are better, I think!!."

[Xaztam]

As Alyssa drove them away James tried to keep an eye on the men, hoping they wouldn't open fire on the car if they had guns.

[Dehoffren]

Leon sat bent forward, somewhat straining the seat belt, with his head hung low. His eyes focused on a sweet wrapper that had fallen of the floor of the car as if it was the most interesting thing he had ever seen. Occassionlly he would lift his head, and look out of the window. He noticed that the view was greener now as city melted into countryside.
