"Hi. I don't know who I am. Do you know?" He started walking towards the girl, who seemed to respond to his greeting.

(That, right there, is a one-liner, my friend. That amounts to a warning.)

Cutter raised his gun and looked at the newcomer. One glance told him everything. He was a mutant. "Stop right there." he growled, tracking the newcomer with his gun. To him, the only good mutant was a dead mutant. The only reason he didn't pull the trigger straight away was because this one was different. He had spoken, for a start, and clearly wasn't one of the mindless bloodthirsty monster he had come to know. "Not another step."

"Why? Do you really think I'M a threat?" He spread his arms out, finally taking note of his appearance. He stared at his arm, his chest, and most importantly, his metal arm. Instantly forgetting about the man with the gun, he poked the metal prosthetic. He hadn't even noticed it, so it had to be linked to his brain somehow. He flexed it carefully, and a blade shot out from his wrist. He jumped, surprised. He turned to look at the gunman. "Can you please tell me what's going on?" He asks.

"Shouldn't we be the one saying that to you? You're the clearly dangerous guy with the metal prosthetic and hidden blade." Sylvie mumbled, taking out her knife. Arguably, she would probably end up hitting Cutter with the gun and the mutant didn't seem to have one, so knife seemed like the obvious choice. And hiding a blade inside a metal prosthetic? How cliche is that? Sylvie thought.

Cutter didn't flinch as the blade popped out, but took careful note of it. "To answer your questions, yes, I do consider you a threat. And as for what's going on; you're a mutant kid." Cutter kept his gun raised, aiming straight for the newcomer's head. "And the lady has a point. You should be the one telling what's happening." he looked at the new guy again. He was clearly quite young, but had the general appearance of a corpse which had been dug up and reanimated.

"I don't know. I just woke up in some hospital and all these weird looking creatures were trying to kill me. I still don't know how I escaped." Jack looked at the soldier's gun, and noticed it looked nothing like a gun should. "Is that a modified gun?" He asks.

"It's an M6D Pistol. Prototype. And I personalized it a bit. Enough power in one round to shatter a three inch block of solid concrete. Probably more at close range. And know this. You so much as twitch in the wrong direction, one of these rounds will enter your head between your eyes." Cutter warned and then lowered the weapon. The mutant seemed genuinely confused. "You have a name?" he asked.

"My name is Jack. And I would really appreciate that you would not shoot me." Jack put up his hands, surrendering to the man with the bigger guns. Something that he seemed to remember about himself. "What exactly are you two doing here?" He asks.

"I don't wanna shoot you." Cutter admitted. "It'd be a waste of perfectly good ammo. So don't give me a reason. And we're just here to spend the night. Y'know... shelter from the cold and the Mutants." he said. Obviously failing at one of those two things. Cutter thought. "What about you? Why are you here, in this particular patch of land?"

Sylvie took note of Jack's posture while the two talked. He seemed almost submissive, though he really was confused, from his tone and facial expression. Then again, he might be an actor. Sylvie chided herself for thinking a mutant would ever be 'nice', or even hesitate to kill a human. They wouldn't. This one... he was only a newer generation, one that was smarter and could trick them. Yes, that must be it. Sylvie decided.

"And mine telling us about that arm of yours?" She added, though knowing he probably wouldn't have a satisfying answer. Most likely "I don't know." or something of the sort.

Cutter looked over at Sylvie and wondered how useful she would be in an actual fight. He made a mental note to give her a few basic lessons. Then he turned his attention back to Jack, and waited patiently for the mutant to answer the questions Sylvie and he had asked, hoping he would get a clear and to-the-point answer. It would be a first if he did.

"Well, all I can remember about my arm is that it was injected with something, and they had to amputate it." Jack grinned. "I like this new one better, though." He waked towards them, keeping his full attention on the gun. "Mind if I stay with you people for a little bit? I don't really want to go back into that maze from Hell."

"Please say no?" Sylvie glanced at Cutter, trying to gauge his reaction. This the former marine's credit, his face was as impassive as always. Unfortunately, she couldn't tell what he thought of the mutant's question. Oh, she'd much rather that mutant crawl back to his own kind, back where she belonged. But ultimately the decision was Cutter's to make.

(Sylvie has problems, I guess. No offense meant!)

Cutter thought. On one hand, he was a mutant and every instinct screamed at him to pull the trigger and send a bullet on it's short journey. On the other, there was strength in numbers. He wondered for a second and then looked back at Sylvie. "Sorry." he said. Then he lowered his weapon and turned back to Jack. "You can stay. Don't get me wrong; you make me regret this for one second and I'm gonna make getting torn limb from limb seem like sweet, sweet mercy."

"Okay, I'll make sure to stay on your good side." Jack sat by them at the fire, staring into its bright depths... Remembering something...

(First of all, there's no fire. We've discussed that issue in detail. Pay attention. And secondly, again with the one liners?)

Cutter watched him warily as he sat down. Two survivors in one day. The odds were almost incalculable. He sighed and turned to Sylvie. "You said you have a knife, right? I'd quite like to see it." He said, holding out a hand. Some people might've mistaken it for a request. It was, in fact, an order. He almost winced as he realized this. He had no right to order these people around. Old habits were hard to shake.

"Okay." Sylvie agreed, unsheathing her knife. It wasn't very special, just a rather long knife (she thought it was a dagger, her father called it a knife so a knife it was), with a slightly modified handle to allow Sylvie more control and precision in her cuts. Sylvie honestly doubted the knife would be much help dealing with a mutant. "It's not much, I know. It's just a hunting knife my dad got modified a bit." She admitted.

Cutter took it and examined the weapon. Then, he twirled it over his fingers and caught it. "Half gram heavy on the hilt..." he muttered. "You said your aim was worse than a Stormtrooper's, right? Do you know how to throw this knife?" he asked, turning towards her.

Sylvie relaxed somewhat at that. Of course! Sylvie thought. She nodded. "Yeah, I meant my aim with a gun." She cringed. Her father had refused to teach her after she managed to accidentally shoot the neighbor's dog with his... whatever massive thing that had been. She took the knife. "I'm aiming for the base of the spot where Jack first appeared, kay?" She informed him. It was a medium-range throw, so it should be pretty easy for her. She got into stance, relaxing her body and for once standing up straight. She threw the knife, watching as it flew through the air, before burying itself in the soft earth where Jack had first stepped foot into the clearing.

(Note: Sylvie's knife can't be used for long-distance throws since it's NOT a throwing knife, it is in fact a highly modified fighting knife. She's kinda bad at fighting though so uses it to hunt...)

"Impressive." Cutter nodded. He looked over at his supplies. He had several clips of ammo... maybe even enough for a few practice shots. But certainly not at night. The sound would be like a magnet to any mutants within five kilometers. He looked around. "If you want to catch some shut-eye, go ahead. I'm going to take first watch." Cutter announced.
