"Do we really have to leave already?" Dani asked, a tone of whining entering her voice. Of course she knew the answer, so she kept on packing her stuff anyway. They only had a change of clothes of course, a pair of worn jeans and a simple t-shirt. To help with warmth, they often wore a leotard and tights underneath, as well as a short coat if they had one on hand. Quality clothing was fairly hard to come by ever since the demons attacked, at least in New Orleans.
What she was currently wearing was very similar: blue jeans with a hole in the knee, white tights, a purple leotard, her yellow blouse, and a pair of orange converse sneakers. Not surprisingly, her sister's outfit was very similar to her own. It consisted of blue jeans with various small holes, black tights, a pink leotard, a green t-shirt, and blue and black tennis shoes. Her coat was currently hanging on the rack next to her sister's, both of them a rather indiscriminate gray color. Though they were of fairly good quality, the blankets that they used would also serve as cloaks if it got that cold like up north.
"Yes, unfortunately," Annie replied, possibly a bit too savagely. "You'd think that those idiots would be more willing to accept us for staving off all of those demons, but instead they seem to think we caused them to attack." Her vent ended rather abruptly as she slammed her suitcase shut after putting her coat in it. Dani followed her sister's example glumly, detecting her sister's mood and adding that to the sadness she felt over having to leave in the first place.
The last few preparations involved them pulling the rope that they had attached to the suitcases' handles a long time ago over their shoulders and equipping their weapons. Annie's spear actually had a holster-esque band that went over her other shoulder and allowed her to slip it on her back, while Dani carried her sword in a make-shift sheath at her belt, really just another piece of rope. With all of that said and done, they grasped hands and made their way down to the street, avoiding the holes in the floor. Then they followed what was left of the sidewalk out of the city and turned north.
