[The sound of gunshots and groaning outside, along with hollaring and braying oxen have Ran on edge, as is evident with her cowering stature and trembling bottom lip.

Her voice is timid, her eyes etched in worry. She appears to be huddled in the corner of the wagon, keeping her bandaged arm against her chest.]W-w-would someone

[Ran turns to Sonoko, eyes teary.]

Sonoko, no. You're safer here. I'm simply asking those that are already out there.

[Shit would have happened anyway Ran. Shinichi missing. His strange relative showing up and living with you.]

We can get through this, it just takes a little determination and endurance!

[Ran gives Sonoko a weepy face.]

But...but Sonoko...! I hate zombies! [And ghosts. And vampires. And ogres. And demons. And insert-creepy-thing-here...]

[Oh she knows.]

If any dare show their face in here, I'll pummel them!

I'm sure Shinichi will do fine. [Because, hello. That boy finds trouble all the time and he's still alive.]

[coolguysangel]

[Oh Sonoko, no you won't.]

If he'll actually take it seriously!

Shinichi can be stupid, but I'm sure he's really trying to look out for you.
