Chapter 5 by Clark24 Clark24

After watching the building for a moment you decide its best not to stand where you are much longer.

Move towards the lounge.

The noise wasn't enough to attract any real attention. Had you not been right next to the lounge chances are you wouldn't have heard a thing. You pull the rifle off your shoulder and make your way around the far side of the lounge. It had windows near the main entrance and along the front side, but the sides and back had none. From where you are you are only able to try and peek in from a distance. There was clearly someone in there as you could now make out voices.

This was always the hard part. What the fuck do you even do. One one hand it could just be some family having an argument. It was hard to remember that that used to be a common every day thing. But now you just never know. Maybe it was someone being robbed. Killed. It could be people non hostile people or it could be raiders or gangs. As if there was much difference between the two. Also it was people and that meant they had stuff. Stuff that could be yours if you wanted. Regardless of the case there was no way you were just going to walk in say "Hi", wave and ask them if everything is ok. There is still the option to just go back and continue searching the other buildings. (if so just go back to previous and select)

"Ok. Maybe they just want to talk," you say to yourself. "Yeah... nice friendly people." There was no way to tell which entrance was best. The voices had come from in the building, somewhere near the far end. As much as you try its impossible to decide if they are closer to the front door or back door. Either entrance seemed as good a choice as the other. You listen to the voices a moment longer...

... and look left and then right.
