My guys were surrounded by a group of maybe ten or so other people. The strangers were bandaged up and looking halfway decent, but my men had yet to be touched by anyone.
They stood there, covered in different colors of blood, and while they were still smiling and carrying on as usual, I could see them holding themselves tense. I knew the blue and purple blood on them meant zombies, and while I had not yet come in contact with any of the undead yet, I knew they were not easy to put down.
"Are you guys okay?" I asked, my eyes scanning each one of them. The only problem was that I had no idea if the blood was from themselves or someone else.
"We're fine," assured Bai Long Qiang, coming up to give me a kiss on the forehead. "Let's get going. I'll introduce everyone when we get back home."

"Where's Rip? I didn't think he would leave you," asked Bai Long Qiang as he looked around the apartment.
