With how his luck had been going? He was almost convinced he'd fallen asleep and rolled out of the helicopter at this point.
Deep breath, Nicolas. Just take a deep breath. Close your eyes, pinch your arm, you'll wake up and everyone'll be covered in gore and sobbing over the loved ones they lost to the zombie apocalypse that had happened.
Of course, that wasn't how Bell Pointe worked. When his tired green eyes peeked back open, there was still a fucking party.
Either the military was more screwed up than he thought, or... "I knew it. They lined us against the wall and shot us. God damn it."
Dead or not, he may as well make the best of it. He looked himself over, brushing the errant chunk of meat from him, and took a few steps to the center of the room. He may not have looked his best but it wasn't as if it mattered. Did the dead really care if you waltz in on their party looking like a well dressed murderer, after all?

He, too, had been covered in chunks, but Bell Pointe worked in mysterious ways and Ellis had somehow found himself in a suit. Not a great one, mind you, but it was a suit never the less.
Lips pursed and gun in hand, he followed behind. Ro and Coach must have gotten separated. Circled 'round back to ambush a hoard or somethin'.
"Hey Nick," He whispered, following as close as possible. "These r'livin' people."

"I don't know, Ellis. Even you couldn't have thought of this." He sighed, turning back to scan the room again. "Ro and Coach back there with you?" He wasn't even going to touch Ellis's stunning conclusion that the people here were alive. That was the whole idea of the military evac, after all.

"Nope, but I figure they've gone 'round back. Shit, shit, shit." Ellis mumbles in a small state of awe. Because honestly? He's got nothin'.

How could they have lost two people? How was that even possible? They weren't even swamped with zombies, any more. There was no excuse.
"... Gone around back where, Ellis." Nick's already thin patience was growing even thinner. "There's no where they could've gone." As if to prove his point, he stormed back to the door they came from and opened it to nothing but a hallway. This was just great. They were stuck god knows where and half the people they knew in the world were gone.

"That is...a fine question. Shit where the hell are we anyway?"
Because frankly, he didn't remember this at all. Last he remembered they weren't near anywhere like this. Brain breakage. He might have some.
Funny it takes showing up to a party, as opposed to a full blown zombie apocalypse.

The fact of the matter was he had no idea. Somehow they'd ended up some place completely unconnected from where they once were without a single hint of how they got there. The only way they'd learn is if they asked around, but Nick wasn't entirely keen on crashing a party by asking everyone what's happening. No, he could delegate that task.
"Looks to me like we fell down the rabbit hole, Alice. You wanna start asking people what the hell's going on?"
