The young nation was about to giggle and tell him that it was alright however was interrupted as her senses started blazing. She could hear the sound of the Zombie's 'language' just faintly. Not that it mattered. It was like trying to understand a wild animal’s growls, meaning it was impossible. She could smell rotted corpse making her nose crinkle just slightly it was always a horrible smell no matter how long you’ve been around it. Death was a scent that was never welcomed.
In response to Egypt’s warning she took her gun and emptied it reaching into a pocket of her dress to pull out a new set of special bullets. They were hollow giving them more speed and made them far more dangerous to handle. She worked carefully placing them in her aura turning darker by the minute as each bullet was placed in.
“Egypt, America, I want to warn you right now.”
Pushing her hair from her eyes she filled the last chamber to her beloved rifle.
“Don’t attempt to touch, speak or even look at me. I don’t need that big of a reason to kill you when I’m like this…so please promise to keep a distance no matter what. And above all…”
She cocked her gun now her eyes narrowed into a deadly glare as she had now reached her dual personality. The sweet and innocent girl was now gone all now that remained was the bloodthirsty war monger.
“Stay out of my way…”

America's eyes widened at Egypt's words. Great. A horde was all they needed at this point. However, he felt lucky that he wasn't stuck out here alone. Sure, he was strong and all, but he doubted he could take on an entire horde by himself. Hopefully the horde was small enough that the fight would be finished in a couple of minutes. He seriously wasn't in the mood to get splattered with brains and blood and be forced to fight for a long hour.
Setting a mask of determination on his face to hide the slight fear he felt whenever zombies appeared, America grabbed his rifle, setting the stock against his shoulder and keeping an eye out around him, making sure to stay alert. He wasn't going to get caught off-guard, not again. He hated this feeling, though. They could be anywhere.
He blinked at Czech's words, noticing the change in the young girl's eyes. Honestly, he hadn't been expecting that. He wondered if the stress of the zombies made her act different, or if she was just always like this when fighting came. He recalled just moments earlier when she had killed that zombie standing behind him. Surely, though, such a sweet girl as herself couldn't possibly be that bloodthirsty deep down inside.
Of course, he didn't want to find out.
With a nod, he glanced at Egypt, trying to ignore the uneasy feeling Czech was giving him. "Where are they?"

The nation closed her eyes relaxing letting ever single ounce of focus go towards her hearing. She listened to the quiet noises of the wind...hearing a small melody of a small babbling stream miles away hearing the gentle yet freezing breeze brush against the grass. Her face twisted in concentration where was it...even a Zombie who could be stealthy made some noise...they were after all a primitive and very diseased species and could not have mastered such silence...that would have taken a considerable amount of evolution...though in today's modern Zombies they were evolving into powerful far more deadly ones by the day...
Her ears perked as did her body as her eyes opened and fell forward. She had hear a single twig snap, and could faintlly feel the footstep from the ground...though it was faint she could still feel from the heaviness that it was something close to human.
without a single word to the others she took a step forward and walked through the grass a small smile touching her darkened face only adding more tension and even more darkness to her aura.

Egypt set his Khopesh on the ground and extended his arm forward. A black mist began to trickle up from his skin and formed into a eagle. He sent the bird of with a simple task:
"Nassr, fly over the hoard, let me look through your eyes so that I might count the zombies in the hoard."
The eagle let a soft raspy screech fill the air as it took off. The Mediterranean nation closed his eyes and the hoard came into view in his minds eye.
'14... 17... 20... 25...'
The eagle swooped back down to the three nations and evaporated in to thin air.
"There are at least 25 zombies coming, maybe more..."

Twenty-five.
Alright, that wasn't too bad of a number. It was simply a Class One outbreak America supposed it would take them less than half an hour to finish off twenty-five. So long as more didn't come, like Egypt said they might. But he figured he'd best prepare for more. You could never predict what zombies would do. You could never predict how many there would be. For all they knew, hundreds of zombies could come swarming in at anytime, ready to feast upon the living flesh of the nations. The very thought since shivers down America's spine.
Even more shivers than Czech's attitude or Egypt's sudden ability to speak with ghostly creatures. Honestly, he actually considered himself normal around these guys.
He pressed closer to Egypt, glancing around the area. He could hear the moaning by now, that awful, awful sound all too familiar by this point in time. "From the left," he muttered, turning to face where he knew the herd would be appearing from at any moment. Apprehensive, he narrowed his eyes, steadying his breath in preparation. He was used to this by now- it would do him no good to panic moments before the zombies attacked.

Czech didn't even bother to look up when America gave his little warning. She was already fully aware of this as a scout it was part of her job to be aware of an enemy. But that didn't mean she was going to tell them, they were hardly worth her time. With a sigh she pushed her hair back then reached down to her boot and pulled out her large dangerous looking knife from its place and held it closely at hand.
She moved silently past Americ and Egypt making not a sound and saying nothing to them. She kept walking a few more feet only to find her path blocked by that of a Zombie. It made a blood curling noise at her. It could sense the heat from her body a sure sign that she was living. And the living were a delicacy to the creatures.
It made to lung for her but before it could even lay a hand on her the knife was in its throat slashing it without mercy almost severing the head from the neck. A small blood spatter came across Czech's face which only fueled her duel personality as a large deadly grin came over her one that knew no sanity and no mercy. It was obvious that tonight the 'other' Czech was going to have fun.

Picking back up and sheathing his Khopesh, Egypt took up the observer roll because he was a medic. He need to make sure that neither America or Czech got hurt. One hand hovered over his pistol, the other gently gestured to America, a silent signal to back Czech up (if the crazed nation actually needed it). The Mediterranean nation sent off his smoky eagle once again to circle above and keep an eye on the situation.
"America... Should I send a message back to the warehouse... or do you think we can handle this on our own?"

It took America a second to realize that Egypt was motioning for him to back Czech up. That was a good idea. Despite the girl's sudden change, despite her bloodthirsty attitude now, she would still need some sort of help against twenty-five zombies. That, and America was never one for letting someone else take all the credit. He noticed that she had already killed one of the zombies that must have broken away from the pack. Best not let her kill too many.
"Nah, we got this," he said to Egypt, casting him a side glance. "It's only a handful." With a small grin, he jogged after Czech, rifle up and ready. This shouldn't be difficult at all. Like he told Egypt, there was only a couple. Besides, he did feel better knowing Egypt was a medic and, therefore, could help out if either one of them became wounded.
He noticed the zombies running toward them, and he quickly shot one down, watching as the others trampled over it, blood splattering across the ground. Despite his confidence that they would be able to finish this fight rather quickly, nothing grossed him out more than the decaying ruins of a zombie.

"ok..." Egypt watched as America and Czech began there mini slaughter.
'I wonder if I should join in...'
He watched as America confronted a couple of zombies, hacking them down with a visible grimace. Suddenly a zombie was behind America, poised and ready to take a bite. Egypt whipped out his pistol and took aim. The sudden pop of his snap button holster opening drawing some of the zombies attention from the other nations. He leveled his sighted and pulled the trigger.
*BANG*
The zombie closest to America went down, now missing a large portion of his head.
'To noisy ... need to switch to my sword...'
He quickly put his pistol on safety and holstered it with one hand, the other unsheathed his Khopesh, the highly polished metal gleaming in the sun (or what little light there was). The Mediterranean nation went completely still, closing his eyes and taking in a few breaths before he stepped forward, thus beginning his deadly dance.

She finished her first Zombie quickly separating its head from its shoulders killing it once more and this time permantly. She gazed at her victim with the same unemotional gaze though her sadistic smile stayed. She placed the knife to her mouth and licked the blood right off making her give a shudder in pleasure at the glorious blood she had painted the ground with.
She heard the fire of America making her gaze look up to him. She took a moment to look the two men over seeing how they were fighting making her give just a small smirk. It seemed these two were good for something after all.
Sheathing her knife she grabbed her gun at once and shot at the next Zombie that drew close hitting her mark just right. Right in the head the hollow bullets working like a charm. Her smirk turned to a smile though not at all pleasant in any way.
'Killlll...kill them all...'
her mind kept telling her over and over again urging her to shed more blood than before. Though the other side of her was in no way aware of the dwindling numbers of victims.

Egypt kept his distance and kept a keen eye one Czech. He watched as she beheaded a zombie, eyes going wide as she LICKED the blade. Ignoring Czech's previous warning of not talking to her, Egypt surprised himself by raising his voice enough for the female nation to hear.
"Czech don't drink the blood! You could get infected!"
'Xara! She's gonna have to eat Elder bark now...'
(Xara is a crude was of saying shit in Arabic)

Thankful for the help Egypt was giving him, America focused all of his attention on the zombies. He knew this wouldn't be too difficult. He was good with guns, good with taking down these mindless creatures. He had to be, anyway, if he was going to ever survive this nightmare. Shooting down several more, he glanced around. Not many left. He was thankful he had the other two nations fighting alongside him.
But then Egypt yelled something about Czech drinking the blood. America's eyes grew wide as he spun to stare at the female nation. Oh, hell no. He couldn't believe she had done such a thing. Not only was it utterly disgusting, but it was probably infected, like Egypt said. America didn't even like those things touching him. Would the blood really be poisonous to her?
Unwilling to take any chances he reached forward and pulled her back, more or less throwing her from the fight. "Dammit, Czech, just stay over there if you're gonna be an idiot!" he growled, not in the mood to deal with her strange split-personality. Besides, Egypt and him could easily take care of the rest.

Egypt shot forward in a rarely seen display of aggression. Quickly beheading a few more zombies, he made his way to where America had sort of tossed Czech. The Mediterranean Nation crouched in the tall grass, disappearing from the zombies sight. He opened up his back pack and pulled out his med kit (which honestly was almost the entire continence of his bag.) He unzipped the pack and pulled out a small pill bottle labeled "Elder". He gathered his things back up and mentally prepared himself to face Czech.
'Oh dear Ra, she's going to be mad now... America should not have called her an idiot...or handled her like that...'

Before she even knew what happened Czech was on the ground in mid shot pushed by someone. Now his shove was not ard or that forceful she was just so surprised that she just froze. She ws still for a few moments taking in what just happened.Did someone just touch her?
Vague memories filled her head...the sound of the 'other' Czech's screams of agony filling her mind. She felt her body tense up as her hands tighter around the gun. The other Czech was weak...she couldn't protect herself form the physical torment others inflicted onto her fragile body. It was her duty to protect her...to let her never be touched again.
Without warning she raised her gun up seeing no Zombies only one person who could of done this. America. Her eyes narrowed into slits murderous intent present in her eye. She wouldn't let him hurt the other Czech...she would let him touch her!

Before Czech could pull the trigger, Egypt sprang forward, curved staff in hand. Bringing his staff down on the back of Czech's neck, knocking her out. He caught Czech before she could fall and lowered her to the ground, taking the gun from her death grip of a hold. Setting the gun aside Egypt pulled back out his med kit and set it beside him. Picking Czech's head off the ground, he set her head down on his pack, using it like a pillow. He reopened his med kit and pulled out another pill bottle, this one was labeled " Mugwort ". He opened the bottle and poured two pills out, handing one to America.
"This will help calm you down, I think we all could use it... I know my heart is hammering."
He popped the capsule into his mouth and swallowed.
"But sadly miss Czech will need to take this when she wakes up..." Egypt showed America the tanish brown capsule. "This is a condensed Elder bark capsule. Elder tree bark makes you extremely nauseous when taken in large quantities."
