"You're right, we should at least try to get out of here before we even think about rest."
In your tired state the suburbs seem to fly by. Soon you start seeing more and more trees. Before long you realize you're in a forest, and it's incredibly dark. Unfortunately the road seems to be lined by nothing but trees and from the looks of things there is nowhere to stop for the night. This drags on for about another twenty minutes before you reach a gas station. The station has several corpses in it's parking lot with trails of blood leading towards the back.
Wan begins to pull in and you give him a strange look "Why the hell are we stopping here?"
"We're just about out of gas." Wan answers. He's definitely the silent stoic type.
As the vehicle stops at a pump a loud crack is heard followed by a hole forming in the hood of the car. "Don't get out, stay where you are!"
You decide the best course of action, armed only with a hammer, is to oblige his suggestion. You remain motionless, but Sublime was woken by the gunshot and starts panicking. You manage to restrain her and tell her to calm down and shut up. She listens without any complaint, but you can see she is back to crying again.
You decide to console her, "Look, I know you're in a lot of pain from losing your friend. We all are! Wan doesn't show it, but that's just the way he is. We're going to be okay though, I promise!"
As you finished talking to Sublime, a man approaches the vehicle armed with a military looking assault rifle. Though it's the civilian version, the man is clearly not military either. He's rather average looking with short black hair, a thick and powerful looking mustache and a long and curly goatee. As he walks closer a light mounted on the rifle illuminates the interior of the vehicle temporarily blinding it's inhabitants.
"Nobody is bitten right? I see some of you have a bit of blood on you." The man screams through the windows.
Wan cracks one of the windows and answers out of it, "None of us are bitten, one of our friends was torn apart in front of us."
"Oh, well then you have my condolences. Go ahead and get out of the vehicle."
The group listens and climbs out very slowly so as not to set off his instinct to shoot like a maniac. He continues checking the group, probably trying to verify that none of them were bitten. He makes his way by one by one checking each of them. He stops momentarily and pulls out a cigarette, lighting it and taking a deep drag.
"Call me Gary. I take it you're out of gas too? Well there is none here at this station."
"You mean we stopped for nothing?"
"Relax, it's the middle of the night. I cleared out all those freaks that were here. I was in the process of chucking their bodies in the dumpster round back when your group showed up. Go inside, get some food and some rest. Plenty of stuff still in there."
You feel reassured, and lead Sublime inside. You notice Wan staying outside and without being asked begins helping Gary move the corpses. You can't help but feel uneasy about this Gary character as he seems significantly well too armed for this scenario. You decide to discuss the matter with Sublime while the two of you head to the restrooms to clean up.
"Do you think we should try to get away from this guy? He does have a gun, what if he's going to try to take advantage of us? Wan seems to trust him."

1 Votes A) Try to get out of there, ditch Wan if you have to. This guy seems a little too happy about the situation.
3 Votes B) You're incredibly fatigued and exhausted. A good nights sleep will be the most important thing.
