"Let's do this."

Rowan, Blake, and Joel had climbed onto the cliff to get a full overview of the scene before them, just seeing each group of infected was unnerving.

They each moved to a section of the cliff in spots where they could accurately aim for their own group of infected.

Devyn moved forward, holding a shiv in her hand as she snuck up behind the first clicker, shoving the shiv into what used to be its neck, feeling the blood trickle down her hands.

She flinched when she heard the first molotov being thrown in the middle of the first group of runners as she sprinted by and heard the next group approaching.

She peered over a car and saw the next clicker in the crowd, "Shit.." she looked around, seeing a brick, picking it up and throwing it to try to lure it to her.

The clicker squealed and hobbled it's way towards the sound away from the runners who also wandered after hearing the noise.

Devyn looked up at Blake, giving him a nod as the signal for the second bottle as she took down the next clicker and heard the bottle break.

"Good... two more to go.." she said to herself.

Rushing to the third group, she stopped as she heard the horrifying sound of a bloater, a double sized version of a clicker, groaning and wandering.

"Oh fuck.." I turned my attention to Rowan, the last one left that would help me before I would take the last group down myself and he signed me his concern.

"One molotov, too risky. Second option?"

Devyn had to think, and she had to think fast. Her strength was doubled, the reactions in her body were starting to react like an infected, maybe she had a chance.

One problem remained, she was still an enemy to the bloater, if he comes in contact with her..

She's dead.

She looked back up at him and signed back, "Save it. Let me do this. Cover me if in danger"

Rowan's eyes widened and he started shaking his head and refusing motions when Joel finally caught on and looked at Rowan.

"The hell is she doing?"

"She's going to take that thing down alone, she's telling me to save the last bottle for the last group."

"What the hell? That's suicide!" Blake chimed in as well.

"No no, you gotta convince her to come back. We can find another way in" Joel looked down at Devyn to try and get her attention to come back.

Devyn noticed and shook her head no, signing to Rowan that she can do this and to trust her.

"She won't budge.. she's really going to do this." Rowan felt panic in his chest.

"Damn it.. tell her to be fucking careful.. we'll take each corner." Joel moved to a visible corner to get his own good aim, as well as Blake.

Rowan turned back to Devyn, signing to her. "We're ready, you're fucking crazy."

She smirked at him, "You would do the same" she signed and pulled out her shotgun, heading into the crowd, taking out the first clicker to set off a chain reaction after another.

Runners came at her from multiple directions, along with her own shots, she heard other shots coming from the men and she bolted straight for the bloater.
