Suzy’s Strange Saga

You wake up to the sound of a noisy vehicle outside. You waste no time in springing to your feet.

You cautiously peek out the window and see a beat up pick up truck pulling up behind Lilith’s shot up vehicle. You then see two familiar figures get out of the truck with one of them speaking loud enough for you to hear even from your position.

“Woowee! Looks like we missed some shit going down around here! Make sure you keep yer eyes peeled! Thinkin’ Doc might not even be alive anymore!” Jed exclaims.

“Shit. What the fuck are those two assholes doing here?” you say to yourself.

You see Hugo and Jed both carrying shotguns and going to the back of the pick up, which from your vantage point you can see a pile of blankets in the bed of the truck. Jed uncovers the blanket and reveals a naked woman tied up with ropes. She looks dirty, beaten and bloody. You can’t quite tell if she’s dead, but she’s definitely unconscious.

You then see Jed say something to his brother and points to the house. Hugo nods and you see him walk out of your view. You temporarily freeze up when you hear a knock from downstairs. You hear it several times until you hear Jed shouting at his dim-witted brother.

“Jesus fuckin’ Christ Hugo, are ya stupider than usual today? Can’t ya see that door is already hangin’ off the fuckin’ hinges? Just go in, and fuckin’ check the place out, then let me know if Doc’s even around or not. I’ll be out here keepin’ this fierce one entertained.” Jed shouts and you see him patting the leg of the girl a couple times.

The knocking becomes a crashing sound as you hear Hugo bashing the door in and probably moving the sofa in the process. You turn your attention away from what’s going on outside and how you’re going to handle this situation.

You think about climbing out the window and on to the roof, but that’s a risky proposition. Not really so much of the risk of falling (Though your ankle still hurts a bit) but more because Jed is practically in front of you and if he just bothers to till his head up or hears you, he’s going to see you and probably open fire.

You look around the room and hoping maybe there is a firearm or something that Lilith didn’t take, but you don’t find anything. That dresser you put up against the door isn’t going to last long if Hugo tries to come in here.

You suppose you could just try shoving move stuff against it, but considering he not only looks extremely strong, he’s got a shotgun and could probably just blast his way through.

You hear Hugo stomping around downstairs.

If Hugo comes up here, and you hide in the closet, there’s the possibility that you could get the drop on him as he walks in.

You wonder though if it might not be more advantageous to just head downstairs and try to sneak up on him now though. If he comes up and things go to shit, you aren’t going to have any place to run to, especially if he traps you in this room.
