As six teens creep out of one of the auditorium side doors, the sky rumbles. The sick, swirling gray-green clouds seeming to churning in anger at their audacity. They step out into the central green, where vines criss-cross the pathways, each one a hairtrigger trap waiting to be sprung. Aside from the gentle rain of ash and near constant writhing of living vines, everything is still. Eerily so.
Some of the 8' planks that had been built around the Surly Stump have been pulled down by the new growth. Though it's hard to see through the ash rain and haze what's beyond, if anything at all.
That's not where you're headed, anyway, though.
Medical supplies. In the infirmary. An easy trek on any other day, now blocked in almost all directions by vines. Crossing the central green looks like a fight the whole way, no time saved for the more direct route. You could walk the perimeter of the middle park if you're careful, or slip between the remains of the auditorium and the radio station and try to reach the infirmary via the main road.
No matter where you go, you're going to have to walk past the station and central classrooms to get there. Suddenly, a 2 minute walk feels much, much more daunting.
