"Yes, I think I need a rest"

From Create Your Own Story

You feel a little dizzy, and your mind is still overwhelmed by the emotions from what just happened. "Yes, I think I need a break," you say.

"I understand," Nina replies. She turns to the scientist. "You should get some rest too."

As you and the scientist walk off towards the living quarters, he introduces himself. "I'm Dr. Ryan Murray."

"Nice to meet you, Dr. Murray. I'm Marina Brier."

"Please, Miss Brier, call me Ryan."

"Okay, Ryan. And you can call me Marina."

"You were very impressive in there, Miss Br...I mean Marina. The way you handled those zombies with your awe-inspiring combat skills, you reminded me of some of my favorite action movie actresses. Angelina Jolie, Jessica Biel, Nadine Velazquez, Keira Knightley..."

You smile. "Well, I'm not nearly as famous as any of those ladies. But I was an actress in the old world, before the zombie apocalypse, before the dark times. I did mostly action roles, so I guess that's where I learned to be so good at combat."

"I...I really admire that in a woman, Marina," says Ryan softly, blushing a little. You find yourself blushing as well as you think of what to do next.
