Especially not after they left scratches down her back. And whatever this is on her pants that was splashed when she ripped into their innards with her Dad's knife because they'd managed to knock her gun away.
Having managed to win, though, Jo is making her way down a street.
A running police officer. "My God! Hey! Are you from around here? Can you tell me what's going on?" She looks like she's been here as long as Jo has, with perhaps less action.
"I'm Officer Cybil Bennet. I'm from Brahms, the next town over." She shakes her head. "I don't think you'll get there- the road's collapsed. I was looking for another way out here, but it's completely blocked off.
"Best bet is to get somewhere safe, and take all the people you can find there with you. Keep 'em out of the streets and away from the monsters as long as possible."
She headed off into the darkness, looking for more places. There was emptiness. A lot of empty places. And empty cars. And fucking fucked up shit damageable creatures who kept trying to take her skin or her hair and her body for a ride, who she really didn't have a problem kicking the ever loving crap out of.
There were blocked off areas, still. But she was getting used to having to go three different direction to go straight after the last few hours.

And, Oh Look!, there's a police officer.

With a sigh, she adds, "I wonder how many people are still alive here. I know there's a guy here looking for his daughter..."

Jo'd rather not go into that now, exactly.
Or the bell tower again, if she can help it. If not, well...
"Where's the station, and what's your name? I could tell them you're out here if I pass by there."

"What about you? Where'd you come in from?"

She said it with a tight smile.

"Keep yourself safe," she adds, jogging away.

And meant it. Less people dead she liked.

Eventually another place appeared out of the fog.
And just as she was arriving gun shots rang out.
