"You can stay Jaquiline. Well I think that you can." After she said that Azria looked towards Alex to see what he was thinking. "As long as you don't get any of us sick I think it should be fine. So don't be worried." Azria turned to face the new girl who walked in. "A...ride? I think it might depend on where. Possibly if the area isn't as infected with crazies as others. But maybe stealth would be best. I'm not so sure." She bit her lip hesitantly. "Guys...your thoughts?" Her forehead wrinkled in thought as she tapped her foot. "Hey where did you even get a car?" I really don't want to attract a hoard of crazies. I'd rather not deal with to big a fight right now. To hungry for it. Her knees were starting to get shaky. "We need to find food fast."

"Well, if you can take it all away, I think with a little training you could take it out of people... Right?" Matt said, staring off into the mid-distance. "Let's hope so anyway." Matt shivered a little bit, and seemed to snap back to himself."OOOOHHH She's got a car!! It's been a while since I've been any where in a car." Matt said jumping up and down like a 12 year old.

"I don't need any training; I can do it. All means all of it will come back to me- even the radiation in people. You just don't want to be caught in my range too long; it works pretty fast," Jac replied before looking to the newcomer. A car? Seriously? She hadn't seen one of those for a long time. As curious as the latest addition was, her attention turned back to Alex for the time being; he was the one in charge, after all. The final verdict would be coming from him, which was currently the heaviest thing weighing on her. She was frowning again, feeling like she had just ******** up more even if they did say she could stay.

Morgan raised an eyebrow when the other brown haired girl questioned where she even got a car. "Where did I find it? I mean... the answer should be a bit obvious by now," she replied with a short grin, which summed her answer up to Morgan having found the vehicle. Speaking of the vehicle, the one she had wasn't exactly stealth material. "It's... a little larger than a car." Unfortunately, her words appeared to have been drowned out by the hyperactive kid, who was bouncing like a child on a major sugar rush. Morgan glanced at the older boy, who seemed to the leader of this bunch. With everyone else's attention- minus the excited guy- fixed on Alex, the decisions appeared to rest within his hands.

Azria bit her lip and looked at the newer girl a bit hesitantly. "Well. Like I said. It's not up to me. I would just prefer not to attract to much attention." She shook her head in thought but couldn't come up with anything else to say that was important. "I'm Azria by the way. Nice to meet you."

After dropping unexpectedly from the back of the truck, and pondering for a moment why and how she had wound up on the vehicle in the first place, the young, slender, raven-haired woman slowly pulled herself from the ground and began to survey her surroundings. The place was... odd... and different... and it brought a smile to the girl's face. "Brother... I can hear others... should we meet them?" Desiree bounced up and down as she spoke, her hands brushing off her elbows. Yes, sister. We need somewhere to keep safe... Desiree giggled and nodded in acceptance and then pushed for the voices ahead of her. Her ice-blue eyes fell upon the group in front of her, and her voice choked. "Brother... what do I say?" She whispered, seemingly to herself. Introduce yourself, Desiree... you can do it. With a final nod, Desiree walked forward, out of the shadows, her hands placed nervously behind her back, and her head down a little. "He-hello..." She nearly whispered, barely audible enough to get the attention of the group. Maybe she'd just hang back until someone noticed her.

"Alright, alright. Hold on. Here we go, in order. Yes, you can stay. No, we're not doing anything with cars. And hello," he said, pointing to Jackie, dismissively waving away Matt's hopes, and giving a wave to both of the new girls. "I believe introductions are in order. I'm Alex. This is Matt, here, the twitchy guy. The chick-version of Magneto there is Azria. The girl with the glowing-looking eyes is Jackie, and the two of you have yet to introduce yourselves. Now that we've got the unpleasantries out of the way, and we also have six people, I'm thinking two teams of three should be just fine. So, here's the deal. Azria, you take Jackie and New Girl Number Two to the Town. Check the supermart, in the fridge. There might be stuff. And please. Don't die." He gestured vaguely at Desiree while referring to her as 'new girl number two,' and crossed his fingers in mock prayer and waving them at Azria when he asked them not to die. "And that means Matt and I will be showing new girl number one how lovely Central City is this time of year. And we won't be driving. I don't feel like running over an Abomination today, and I certainly don't feel like getting flipped by one. Azria... If it's alright with Car Girl," he muttered with a wave to Morgan, "You could probably handle taking the 'larger than a car' to the Town. I don't think you'll meet too much opposition. Even if you do, with that car you could probably take down an army. If Car Girl doesn't mind losing her ride, of course." The plan had almost mostly been sort of established, which was about as good as it ever got around here. After all, even when there was a plan, nothing went according to it. Even when their master planner had been in action. Daniel had been so much better at making plans than anyone Alex had ever known. He always used to account for every little thing that could go wrong, and it had saved all their asses on multiple occasions. But Alex honestly had no idea where Daniel was- if he wasn't here in his Lab, he was definitely MIA.

Avery had been watching the conversation unfold for quite some time. Oh man, they're about to go get food. Enough hiding, Avery. You need to get in on this. The girl walked out into the open. "If you guys don't mind a 'New Girl Number 3', I'd be happy to help you guys to get some food." She looked around for a few seconds before saying, "Umm, I'm Avery by the way."

Before Morgan could even introduce herself to Azria, Alex had broken up the conversation by splitting everyone- including another new arrival- into teams, with Morgan being paired with Alex and Matt. "Meeting the locals... what a perfect welcome to this place." For the moment, she didn't mind being referred to as "Car Girl"; in fact, a slight snort of laughter was heard from her whenever she was addressed as such. There were a lot of worse names that could have been given to her. Furthermore, Alex had automatically given her ride to Azria, which Morgan didn't mind. It could prove highly useful to the three girls, though it would be a bummer if she missed possibily seeing Jackie utilize her powers. "Go right ahead, the key's still in the ignition and the engine's still running last time I checked. And by the way, I'm Morgan," she replied nonchalantly.

Desiree smiled a little bit. She never got accepted into groups that quickly. Taking stock of the faces and trying to focus on remembering names to go with them, Desiree stepped quickly over to the girl Alex had called "Azria" and faced the small little gathering. "I'm Desiree!" She was beaming at the prospect of new friends. That Alex seems to be in charge... I'll have to talk to him soon. Get everything sorted out. The black-haired girl stepped forward to the boy, Alex, and stuck out a hand. Her voice this time, however, sounded more serious, and even with a deeper tone in her girly voice. "I'm Desmond. If you're in charge here, then might I suggest we take the back route that runs by the hardware store behind the supermart to see if we can't find some sort of tools to aid our survival?" "Desmond" kept "his" eyes on Alex in anticipation for an answer. "He" hated not being responded too.

Azria tried not to display a look of pure confusion on her face as Desiree introduced herself and then introduced another named Desmond. Split personality I assume...well. I hope that both of them don't put us in danger. "Alright crew. Let's hit this. Jackie. Desiree. I gess you all are with me. I wasn't hoping on using the truck. But since it's mostly made of metal I guess I'll be able to manage if something comes up." She grinned at Morgan. "Hey. Morgan. I will try to bring your ride back in one piece, alright?" Then she focused her attention on the other girls. Desiree what are your abilities? And Desmond that seems like it should work since your with me. Then we can park the truck out back. Load our supplies and get out as quickly as possible. Now... if we get seperated we need to set a meeting point. Anyone have one in mind incase we can't get back to the truck?" When another girl spoke Azria's head turned in the direction of the voice. "Alex. Do you wanna take her or should I?"

"Hello, Avery. And nice to meet you, Morgan. And hello, Desiree." The sudden onslaught of so many people wasn't at all overwhelming, despite what others might think. He greeted each of them with a smile... Right up until Desiree introduced herself a second time, in a deep-mock voice of a man, as Desmond. This gave him a bit of a pause, and he frowned for a few moments in silence. "Hello... Desmond?" He muttered it hesitantly, taking the girl's hand and shaking. He was no stranger to insanity, and there were plenty of things weirder than having two people in one head. But it was still a bit of a strange thing, being talked at by a second personality. "I'm just gonna call you D." He gave a nod, and then had another bit of a start when D's second personality had a pretty decent idea. "That's actually not bad. Azria's got it, so do it," he confirmed, giving a nod. As for the new girl, Alex smirked and raised an eyebrow. "I guess you can come with me and Matt and Morgan. The Central City team will probably need more people."

"Holy mother of bacon, how many women are here now?" Matt blurted out, he was oblivious to any plans being made at the moment. He looked around for about a minute, then came back to reality, realizing there were things going on. "Oh, great, we get to go to central? Friggin awesome..." He muttered drowning the sentence in sarcasm, while slouching over. "Ah well, It's always fun to kill crazies." Matt perked up, always looking on the bright side of things. Even though the bright side is killing a truck load of people who have turned into mindless killing machines.

"Matt I'm sure you love being surrounded by women," she teased as she nodded at Alex and the others. "Hey. Guys. Be careful. Alright?" She flashed her friends a warm smile and then turned to the two girls she was leading. "Now. We need food and I definetely need clothes. Some new weapons might be nice. Are you guys up for basically grabbing anything you think is necessary and then putting it into the truck?" She watched Desiree/Desmond and Jackie with an unblinking gaze. "If something does go wrong and we can't get to one another run. Alright? Just run and come here. Now Desiree. What do you do?" While she was talking she was grinding up bits of metal. The dust floated through the air and she inhaled with a small cough as the metal entered her system. It wasn't pleasant but would possibly come in handy later on.

"Desiree... Desmond.... what the heck..." Morgan was equally puzzled as Desiree's sudden voice drop and second introduction. At least Personality Number Two sounded completely sane for now, even suggesting a brilliant idea which Alex hadn't even thought of. Even more, Morgan practically burst out laughing at Matt's exclamation of the women outnumbering the men in the group. "There might be more coming, who knows?" she shrugged, though Matt's current mood nosedived about returning to Central City... and then spiked again with his optimistic outlook. First a girl who was a walking radiation bomb, and another girl with a split personality; maybe Morgan wouldn't have to worry about being called a lunatic for once. That is, until the fighting commenced, and with the truck currently under new management, she would have to get creative again.
