Loon Drive was clear of hostiles from the edge of the junkyard to the community center, and Sphinx was clear almost all the way to Mallard. The barricades cordoning off the safe zone were made from the corpses of fallen dinosaurs -- Mike was really glad he'd sprung for the assault rifles, now.
If he had more men, maybe he could have pushed the barricades out farther. Five or six, if they were well-armed and good enough, would be enough to protect everything east of the park. Unfortunately, men were exactly what he didn't have.
Apu refused to leave the store -- if All and Sundries was still standing, it was going to be open for business. That left Mike manning one barricade, Liz the robot security dog on another, and on the third... well, nobody at the moment. The Cheese Panda had never come to Fandom to badger people into buying Middle Eastern mozzarella. Instead...
A shadowy figure in a trenchcoat and hat crept sneakily towards the store. Mike sighed. "Rabbit!"
The figure turned and tripped, and trenchcoat and hat flew threw the air, revealing a cute white cottontail and floppy ears. "Awww, how'd you know it was me?"
"Because I'm not an idiot," Mike answered slowly. "Now, pick up your gun and go back to the barricade. If you're still alive at the end of the day, I will personally give you the cereal."
As the rabbit went back to his post, Mike grimaced. "Fucking rabbit. Trix are for kids."
