Escaping The Blind

"That guy seems to be enjoying this way too much." Jason thought as he heard Boris' laughter. He still managed to held onto the bag which contained the dead rabbit. 

"Looks like this doesn't have to be a waste of time after all. Just nee-" Jason overheard more voices. A man and another that sounds like a young woman. "Did I just ran into a group?"  Jason thought to himself.
 
Violet opened her mouth, about to retort with a snarky response before closing it and looking around her. Is he bluffing? A gunshot here would attract every one of these freaks in the whole damn county. So is just talking. But I guess this ain't his territory yet if he hasn't tried to kill me for just being here.

Instead, Violet resorted to raising her bat high above her head and pointing it behind her in Molly's direction.

"Guess she wants me to make some noise and do the talking for her!" Molly yelled and kicked off one of the wind turbine vents on the roof and picked it up, lifting it high over her head. "Alright, kiddo, where should I throw it!?"

Violet looked back from the rooftop towards Ezra expectantly. 

'How's that?' she mouthed.
 
Ezra didn't reply to the woman and pointed to a door leading near the back. 

"Keep quiet and follow me..." He grunted while keeping a tight grip on his caught fish. "And if you alert any more Blinders, you're on your own."

He didn't seem to wait for a reply or a reaction from the female. He began to casually make his way to the place he pointed and left through the back door.

======

Boris punched several of the Blinders away from him and he didn't seem to break a sweat. With the few Blinders around the area, Boris finished his little fight in a short amount of time. He tossed the dead beings as far as he could, mostly near the swampy area to get Blinders roaming in the wrong direction. He rushed to the back of the complex, slowly catching up with Jason.

"Haha! Those Blinders proved little match for me!" He laughed.  "I hope you're alright, sir--" He cut himself off, noticing Ezra coming out from the door. "Ezra! Vhat took you so long, eh?! I'm starving!"

"Huh? Boris? What are you doing down here?" Ezra looked at Jason and didn't give Boris a moment to answer. "And who's this..? Ugh, just explain everything later, there's a back of crazy girls behind me."

Ezra eyed Jason suspiciously and slipped around the corner of the complex, going up an emergency exit route in the complex.
 
Jason raised a brow when Erza eyed on him. He did not appreciated being given the stink eye; however, it made sense considering the situation. Upon seeing Boris joining in and Erza slipping through the corner of the complex, Jason  instinctively followed this man.

"I'm really doing this..." He thought to himself.
 
Violet rolled here eyes and turned back to give Molly the signal to follow her once she threw the object before following Ezra. "I take offense to that..." She muttered under her breath.

Molly heard splashing from Boris's throwing, so she figured it would make the most sense to add additional noise in that spot. "I'm way too out of shape for this." She grunted before hurling the vent out to splash into the water. The only way to get the was to hop through the roofs of neighboring buildings, which is what she did for her next course of action. "If this is a trap, I swear, Violet..." Molly grumbled as she climbed down a building's ladder and followed through the exit.
 
While Ezra ignored Violet and went up the stairs to the fifth floor, Boris made sure to be the last person through the door. He made sure that no other Blinders follow them despite that most have been distracted thanks to the splashes he made. When Ezra arrived to the fifth floor, it was Blinder-free and safely barricaded from anyone who wanted to sneak in. He looked back to see if the females and the male were following him at his pace. Regardless if they did, he entered one of the free apartments and tossed the freshly caught fish on the sink.

"The last thing we need is a bigger crowd..." He sighed to himself. He looked worried about the group they found. "Why does Boris befriend everyone he meets..?"

As Boris trailed behind the group, he made sure to barricade the doors leading to the emergency stairs with the exception of the fifth floor one. He seemed very jolly for a man who had his hands covered in blood from the Blinders. He spoke out to the group, being a bit friendlier than Ezra.

"I hope you are villing to share your catch, yes?" He nudged Jason playfully. "We have a couple more mouths to feed."
 
"Uh.." Jason responded when Boris nudged him. It was not the fact that Jason did not wished to share, but he did not planned to provide food with others. Upon entering the room, Jason looked around. As expected, it seems to be a safe haven for a moment before going on a move again.
 
"Hold up, man, we didn't say anything about staying with any of you." Violet interrupted crassly.

"What she means to say is we just planned to check this place out for any supplies left over and maybe find an empty room to break into if it was all-clear. It didn't seemed to have anyone occupying it." Molly said, in a comparatively gentle tone. "It's not exactly typical to hear people just willing to take anyone in anymore. Especially after just finding a safe place to hunker down in. I mean... we don't even know any of your names."
 
Ezra remained quiet about the situation and glanced at Boris when he spoke out to the group.

"Vell, I'm Boris! My quiet friend over there is Ezra! We have been on the run since this entire thing started! I helped you out because a group is stronger in numbers, ya? Besides, the young man there has food to feed us, yes?" Boris turned to Jason and gave him a large smile. "If Helga vas here, she would create a large feast that only a real man would enjoy! Ah yes, Much beer and plenty meat!"

Ezra allowed the man to finish before turning to the group. He seemed much harder than Boris and he wasn't all in favor of more people helping them out. Regardless, Boris did have a point when he said that strength is in numbers. He closed the door to keep their conversation between each other. He seemed a little more hesitant about the recent additions but he still had to allow the people a right to stay.

"Well, Boris is right about a stronger group." Ezra sighed. "But don't expect me to trust you guys anytime soon. You can stay here the night but don't think that you won't have to work. If you're in this group, you'll have to put all your skills on the line to help save each other. I won't allow mistakes in this group. I hope I'm clear on this. So you'll have to share your catch, sir. If you refuse, you can always walk out and fight the Blinders by yourself. The same apply to you, ladies."
 
Jason observed each individual. "Is this the group worth sticking around? I need to weigh in my options." Jason thought to himself. When questioned on joining their group, brought forward by Boris, Jason's expression changed from nervousness to serious.

"For starters, I have to declined giving out my name. Mainly because I merely just met all of you. Although I'm certainly grateful of you, Boris, for saving my hide from the Blinders. However, I'll let the record show that I have no interest of becoming a part of whatever you two are doing." Jason took a breath. "As this man, Erza, himself said, I do not have the coincidence of lending any form of trust, as all of you should definitely understand by this point."

Jason gripped onto the bag with the food. After Erza stated about his choice of leaving, he thought about the Blinders roaming outside. Considering that they were trailing him on the stench of the dead rabbit, he let out another sigh.

"But. I'm not an idiot. I can see that I'm in a bind." Jason said. "If you can lead me out of this dreaded place, then it would be into my favor to remained here. However, once we reached a certain point, I'm parting my ways." Jason looked for an chair, sitting down as he placed the bag onto the table. 

"I won't be telling any of you my first name. Don't take it personally. You can referred to me as Mr. Wayne." Jason said.
