Hey Anna! Let's play! >8D

Anna: Dear God!

==========================================
(Prior to the world-wide apocalypse.)

Anna: *is very pregnant, shuffling around, laundry baskets under both arms, bills between her clenched teeth and a can of air freshener in one of her hands*

Jack: Anna! Have you seen my uniform?! I can't find it! D8

Anna: Mhm! Mph mm hmm mmm!

Jack: Oh, thanks. *pulls it out of the laundry basket* What would I do without my very helpful daughter. *pat pat*

Anna: >= / *watches her dad run off to get dressed*

James: *is playing videogames in his room* Ma! Can you get me something to drink? I can't pause and I'm almost to the end of the game! D8

Anna: *groans and tries to put the stuff down*

Jack: Ah damn, Anna I can't find my holster now! James! Were you messin' with mah stuff again?! D8<

James: No! D8

Jack: Then where the hell is it?! Anna! Anna where are ya?!

Anna: Urgh! *trips over the rug and drops everything* ********!

James: Err..*peeks head out the door, goes to pick some of the clothes up*

Anna: *Puts clothes back in the baskets and places the bills ontop* You know, you two would be so lost without me...

Jack's voice: Anna!

Anna: WHAT?!

Jack: *sticks his head out of the archway* Get over here, quick!

Anna: *runs over with James behind her*

(The tv shows some breaking news about a viral outbreak running rampant on the otherside of the US. There's some reports on people dying but that's all they're allowed to say.)

Anna: *stares at the tv blankly*

Jack: Whatcha reckon's goin on now? Another Raccoon City?

Anna: No...no, that's impossible...Maybe it's just a really bad flu....Yeah.

James: *gulps a little* Mom...? Y-You said they stopped that virus, didn't you? So it's gotta be okay now, cause they wouldn't lie to us, right?

Anna: *eyes widen* Why don't we...uh, why don't we head back up to Kentucky, huh? It's almost summer, I'm sure they won't mind if we take James out a week early.

Jack: Alright, I'll go call your mom and your sisters too. Better to get far away from this bullshit.

Anna: *is still watching the tv, arms folded over her belly*

James: Maybe it's not that, mom. Maybe it really just is a bad case of the flu.

Anna: James, go get your things together.

James: Okay...

===========================================

Years later...

Anna: *zips up the larger pack on the back of her waist and adjusts the straps of her shoulder holsters over her arms and beneath her chest*

Jack: You really gonna go back there to look for that man you have no clue is alive or not?

Anna: I'm not going to find Richard, dad. I'm going because Emily's there and she's having a hard time getting out. I know that city like the back of my hand, I can slip in, get my cousin, slip out. *puts her sidearm in one of the holsters and grabs her old shotgun and straps it over her chest*

Jack: What about Lucy and James?

Anna: Dad, you're a great shot, you're tactful and you love them more than anything. They'll be alright in your hands. Now, don't worry. I'll be back before you know it. *smirks and gives him a thumbs up*

Jack: >= / Anna...

Anna: I've dealt with this issue before and I'll do it again. I've got plenty with me. Enough ammo to last me a week which is all I need right now. Got a few gallons of gas in canisters. Tht should last me a good day of driving if I run out and can't get to any stations. ((Keep in mind that she expects to be in Raccoon for maybe a day or two. She doesn't plan on being gone for like, months))

Jack: Atleast go say somethin' to yer kids.

Anna: I will.
