Murphy and Dawn had been walking back from his place, wanting to make sure he got his girl home safe and sound. As they walked through the cemetery toward Xander's place, Murphy could feel a sudden chill, and then a lightheaded feeling suddenly settled over himself. Next thing he knew he was waking up off the cold grass of a newly made grave.

Taking in account of what they were up against, he slowly pulled himself backward. Having made sure that he also removed whatever was in his pockets so that nothing fell out, or made any loud scratching sounds before he laid down to look.
Once he pulled back enough, he leaned against the opposite wall, and pressed a palm to his face. Eyes closed, he looked scared, and pale. Moving then to re-pocket all his belongings, he sat down slowly next to Dawn, and just looked at her for a moment or two.
Whispering, "I could sit here, an' tell ya tha' the odds are only twenty ta each one of us, but then I'd be lying my fool head off here. As I can count it, we are seriously fucked. As in, there are more pairs of feet walking out around there then I could count in the next ten minutes or so."

So instead, she watched Murphy, biting her lip hard enough that she was surprised she hadn't broken skin. "We can't stay here, though," she whispered in reply. It was both a statement and a question. They were sitting ducks here, pretty much waiting for whatever was out there to finally find them. "We have to find somewhere. I mean... there has to be somewhere, right?" She was doing pretty good at being calm, but seeing the look on Murphy's face wasn't helping her keep it.

"No, we can nae, thing is...where do we go? We don' even know if there are still people out there...we got no idea iffen we are in some freaky alternate dimension, some dream, some fucked up nightmare come ta life. Although, it sure as fuck feels like the last bit. Iffen we go on foot, we fucked, tha' much is certain. I could try an' boost a car, not like I feel good 'bout tha'. We could be leavin' some family in need with no way outta here. Hell, we got no fair idea iffen we could git outta Sunnydale ourselves. Iffen we could, I'd make sure you where on yer way, cause I ain't leavin' these fuck=sticks out here ta jus' up an' kill innocent folk." He sighed heavily, and scrubbed his hand over his face. "An' wha' the fuck was up with the faintin', an wakin' up feelin' as if I got a million spiders crawlin' up me ass."

"I'm sticking with the option that doesn't make this real," she whispered in reply, even as she tried to think of something she could do. She wasn't even close to being on the same level as Willow, however, not for several years with her methods.

"Well, what iffen I tol' you that I had to actually kill a zombie when you was passed out? Is that even possible, had that ever happened before 'round here? What do ya know that Buffy knows? Talk ta me here, kay baby? Cause, I can nae see a way outta here, and we need ta git outta here an' fast! " He hissed softly. Now pissed off, because he was not going to just sit there and let anything real, or unreal hurt his Dawn.
