After being abandoned by not one, but two women in the span of five minutes, King was feeling rather unloved. Nevermind the fact that he had no idea where he was, or what was going on, or why he was here, or where here was... The most important thing was that he had no guns. He had no stakes. He had no bullets, no knives, and no weapons of any kind. All he had were the clothes (and the target) on his back. Oh yeah, and that stupid box full of crap, minus the tube socks he'd given to.. what was her name? Kimberly. Yeah. Kimberly.. he'd known a blonde Kimberly once.. she'd been trouble, that one. She'd bitten a large wound into his shoulder. He'd loved every moment of it.

A smirk found his face at the memory, even as he stepped out of the forest and into the town. It took him a while to walk along the road, looking around, catching his reflection a few times in the dirty windows of shops. It was a ghost town. Where had everyone gone? For all he knew, those two girls he'd met were ghosts themselves.. but it didn't seem very likely.

"Hello?" He called out, cupping a gloved hand against his mouth as he did. There had to be someone here.. and he certainly wasn't worried about it being a town of vampires. Maybe he'd been knocked unconscious or something..? Really, it didn't matter how he'd gotten here, it just mattered where here was, and how he was going to get out. "Anybody home?" He shouted out again.

The vampire didn't have to be nearby to hear an unfamiliar voice calling out. Her sensitive hearing made certain of that. It was a little disconcerting though, that someone was just outside yelling, like they had no idea... oh, maybe they were new. Or suffering from amnesia. Hadn't Rose said her friend was sick? Well, Selene assumed anyone bitten by a zombie would be sick in likely more than one way. And had it been anyone but someone Rose considered a friend she might "accidentally" kill them when she found them, just to make sure their was no risk of another appearance of zombies.

The strong winds made tracking difficult to an extent, so Selene was moving across the rooftops. They provided her the best vantage point possible, considering by now her eyes were quite well-adjusted to the darkness, even if she could tell that it wouldn't hurt to feed soon to recharge herself. She moved quietly from one building to the next, ending up atop the thrift store when she found a decent view of the person yelling. Her eyes narrowed as she surveyed him, and she knew instantly he was some sort of hunter. A hunter used to carrying several weapons by the looks of it, which made her suspicious. There was no telling just what he hunted.

Still, she was virtually impossible to kill now and besides, if he was in fact new then she had the advantage of being familiar with the layout of the town, even if it was awash in darkness. She quietly lept down to the sidewalk, boots making a minimal amount of noise, and she pushed her hair out of her face as she walked to approach him from the front of the building. "I take it you're new here. Or you have a very short attention span."

He did look like a hunter, didn't he? With that shotgun strap across his back, the two gun holsters on his sides, strapped down to his thighs.. and the convenient stake-sized holders across his breast. These weren't the sort of hunters you were used to, eh, Selene? Used to the rabid dog variety, weren't you?

But when there was suddenly a woman coming from the direction of the front of the.. what was that? Thrift Store? What a strange little town.. but he focused dark eyes onto her again and smiled in greeting, lifting a gloved (fingerless) hand at her, but not moving any of his fingers.

"New here. But I do have a very short attention span, comes from a life time of being ignored as a child. Very traumatic. I'll tell you about it some time. But first, I'd like to know where here is. I wake up in the forest with two women, and while normally that isn't a surprise for me.. we were all wearing our clothes, and that tells me something's wrong." He lifted his eyebrows some and turned his head, giving her a 'well?' sort of look. "You look pretty comfortable here.." An absent observation, interrupting whatever reply she might have been trying to give.
