The van was close enough that archer could see the explosion. He did not yet know if Snake or Sam were alive
"RPG's really? That's just unfair," Archer yells at nobody, "I mean fast zombies is one thing, but Romero would just be appalled by all this... anyway if one of you two could give me some cover that would be great. After that my plan is to pick up the beardsley brothers (OOC: Sam and Snake) and lead the horde behind us directly at our new explosive wielding buddies over her while we make a badass escape. Suggestions?"

"If anyone brought a bazooka, I'd recommend pulling it out now," Spooner replied to none in particular, watching the explosion in front of them. "The real question is are we gonna Rambo our way through the blockade ahead of us, or huff it on foot. At least on foot, we might be able to sneak past 'em. I feel a migraine coming." His tone read mock defeat. He took the time to look back, hoping the hulk zombies weren't yet gaining. "Snake, Sam. If you aren't dead, respond. We're right behind you. Don't be dead," he ordered, somewhat jocular. Darkly jocular.
He reached into his bag and pulled out something for later, an explosive surprise for whoever had it coming first. "Or maybe, we could just let the car drive itself into the blockade with explosives in it. You know, throw a brick on the gas pedal or something? I mean, unless one of you has a bazooka? We could hit wire another car easily enough, am I right?"

"No, sadly no sane person carries around a Bazooka..sadly." Joel peeked out of the improvised sun roof, scanning the area for something they could use. He still had 2 Smoke-Bombs and a Nail-bomb. Not one for wasting ammo, he began to quickly brainstorm. He had something of an idea.
"Here's my idea." Joel told Del and Archer.
"Archer, we have to go with Del's second idea. Here, have this brick." Joel said, handing Del a brick.
"Now, we're gonna put the brick on the gas, I'm gonna throw out a smoke bomb, and we're gonna roll off the van when the smoke is dark enough. Then, we go from there, any objections?"

As Spooner jumped into the van, Archer floored it in Snake and Sam's direction. The two giant undead continued pursuit but could not keep up. They continued to follow the van's direction along with the herd behind them. The General came over the comms, "Boys, you have incoming! The small convoy is closing in!" As he spoke the headlights of the trucks cam into view of Snake and Sam. The lead Humvee had a person standing outside of a roof hatch. Hefting a RPG over his shoulder, the soldier in the truck fired it towards the two men. After firing the truck fell back and allowed the other two trucks and trailers to pull in front. With stone and brick walls or fences on both sides of the streets protecting the housing, it was either abandon the vehicles, fight ahead in the direction they needed to go, or back track and face a heard of undead. The explosion that was heard was that of Snake shooting the rocket with his M4 Assault Rifle, causing it to explode. In the resulting smoke from the explosion, Snake used his Solid Eye to map out the best possible way to escape the men. He then vaulted over one of the trucks with Sam in tow and landed on the other side of one the brick walls. "I am alright, I made it out of the death trap but I think they are onto me. Where are you guys?!" Sanke radoies back to Spooner

"Give me the brick" Archer said as he took the brick and wedged it against the pedal.
The barricade was coming up quickly.
Archer swung his door open and continued to steer as it got closer and closer. He would jump when Joel gave the signal.
"Ok so smoke bomb on 3. Or after 3. Or whatever,"
The van rushed on and...

Detective Spooner breathed a sigh of relief. This zombie apocalypse had probably taken enough lives. On this mission to finally end it, he hoped the casualties would stop... he could only hope. "There's about to be a car missile speeding past your location. We're gonna attempt to ditch it as soon as we get to the checkpoint: you. When you see the car, poke your head out so we can see ya. Eyes open, folks! Archer, cruising speed of 10-15, we don't wanna die jumping out."
Spooner waited for the car to pass the aforementioned checkpoints. Once he caught sight of his teammates, he'd pass the brick to the driver and direct Joel to activate the smoke bomb. Once it went off, he'd leap out and roll with his momentum, still wielding the crowbar and sidearm. If needed, he'd provide cover fire for the ones in the car to escape the car missile.

Snake popped his head out from behind the wall

As the rocket exploded the trucks swerved trying to avoid the debris. One of the trucks hit a light pole which caved in the front in and sent one of the men flying through windshield. The trailer attached catapulted up and over, spilling its contents onto the road. From the darkness of the open doorway of the trailer undead hands grasped the edges and began to emerge. The second truck slowed but continued its progress.
Joel threw his smoke bomb down the road. As Spooner and Archer rigged the van, everyone abandoned the it before the speed grew to great to do so without injury. The van picked up speed as it neared the truck. The smoke bomb Joel had thrown concealed the van from the men. As it broke through the smoke cloud the men still in the truck leaned out the windows and over the cab of the truck and opened fire with their weapons. The van was shredder with bullets but kept coming. The men realized the van wasn't occupied but it was too late. As the truck pulled left the trailer took a direct impact. Being connected to the truck it sent it careening into a wall and caused it to flip upside down. Undead body parts were everywhere. Undead from the first trailer began to stagger towards the writhing men spilled from the second truck. The humvee slowed to a crawl as it, Bane leaned forwards from the shadows of the back of the humvee. He gazed at the carnage these peasants had caused. Looking into the distance he watched as the smoke began to dissipate. He caught a fleeting image of someone hopping a wall headed in the direction of the school and airport. He could also see the advancing horde heading in with two of the monsters that had been seen. Luckily this time it was the more calmer ones.
As the 5 men landed on the other side of the wall, two undead slowly advanced from the house in front of them. The General came of the comms once again, "Nice job men. I'm sure only half the city heard that confrontation. Keep quiet and continue East. You should come up on a school after moving through this small neighbor hood."
(OOC: I have you all already placed over a stone wall and in relative safety for the moment.)

Spooner felt the support from the wall behind him, in a manner of speaking, but it didn't make him feel particularly safe. They were still surrounded by threats from what seemed like every direction. But he knew this was basically what he signed on for with this project, and it would be well worth it if they could only get to their goal before death got to them. Without hesitation, and with a certain ferocity, he smacked the first zombie in the face with his crowbar, causing his soft tissue to almost seem to explode around the metal weapon. Not wanting to give away his position, if it wasn't already, he pistol whipped the other zombie with inhuman strength at the back of the neck. "Let's go," he remarked to his comrades. "Patient Zero is alive somewhere in this shithole, and according to our authority, east is the way to go."
Spooner made his way toward the school, unsure of what would manifest between here and there.

Archer followed behind Det. Spooner, having nothing particularly witty to say at this moment. His chekov was out but he kept his eyes open for some sort of makeshift melee weapon, a branch, a discarded wrench, something he could use on zombies without attracting the horde.

Alright, Joel was still alive, and he could still fight. The guys had made it, all we had to do now was hide. "We have to cover our tracks, I got an idea." Joel would tell the guys. Picking up one of his bottles, he would chuck it far, aiming over the wall. This way, wherever it lands, the enemies would think that they were there, when they were in fact, right here.

As the group crept through the backyards of houses and through the sparse woods, they came to a small clearing. Across the clearing was a small school. The playground that was between them and the building was vacant. No lights were on inside the school. It was a two story building and a view from the roof could provide a good point to use and find their bearings for their surroundings.

Archer looks at the school.
"Trap." he whispers.

"Well, the lights are off... Nobody's home... I vote we go around the side of the school. It's got a good vantage point, but I don't think it's worth the dark climb and possible death and loss of ammunition. All in favor?" It was a rhetorical question, his legs were already taking him through the playground and sound the side of the structure. "There's just no good reason, plus I've seen enough horror movies. I'm not gonna be first to die."
A thought occurred to him. "Uh, I haven't heard that crazy lady in my ear lately. Did she...?"

"Zombie food herself? I hope not, she was the hottest out of all of us. Or she sounded like it... Except for me obviously. And maybe Spooner if I was into black cyborgs... anyway I'll go in back if someone else wants to take lead meat-shield."
