Hopping off the overturned bus Jon kept running with nothing but the beam of a dying flashlight to lead him. Damn what the hell. He could still the clicking behind him and only seemed to get closer. He glanced back and only saw one clicker come into view but he couldn't simply rely on the small beam of light to tell him that it was just one clicker. The crunching of his shoes against the broken, nature eaten asphalt of Boston city made for hard running, he would either have to risk going to ground and hope the clickers would run past him or just keep running toward the center of the city.
Of course, the choice was made for him. He was getting gassed and knew he couldn't keep this chase up for long so he decided to make a hard right into an alley and hope there would be some back door, a dumpster he could hide or something to get these clickers off his ass. A door was illuminated by the small beam of light from his already dying flashlight, he could only hope it wasn't locked. As he arrived, he thanked god or whoever was watching out for him that the door was not locked and gave way after exerting a little more effort into it. It was also fortunate the door swung open inwards to the building not outwards, he ducked in, closed the door as quietly as he could and just in time for the clickers to arrive. Waiting for the clicking noises to disappear, he surveyed the room he was in.
The flashlight's beam bounced off what should have been stainless steel counters and racks. He was in a kitchen of sorts, and if there was a kitchen there should either be supplies or blades, either of which he couldn't find any. He surveyed the rest of the room and found that the entrance to the kitchen from the main building was already crushed under rubble and wreckage. Off to the side of the room was a ladder which the rungs were built into the wall and possibly led to roof access as he could see the movements of the wispy clouds overhead made visible by the moonlight. He turned to look at the door again and walked over to lock it, it wouldn't help against infected but it might just stop a human from sneaking up on him. He began his ascent out of the dark kitchen.
As he reached the roof of the restaurant in which he took temporary sanctuary he noticed that the center of Boston, which was near the Capitol building lay in sight. He could also vaguely hear a lot of angry screaming coming from the alley across the street. No doubt that building was where the two headed into, I don't think the guard sends patrols out this deep into infected territory. Jon tried his best to discern a way toward the two without having to cross the street filled with runners and clickers. Looking around, all Jon saw was wreckage and abandoned vehicles, nothing to use to connect the building he was in to the building across him.
He shrugged as he gave up on finding a solution and decided it was best to simply wait it out, he took nap to make better use of his time. As stupid as that idea was, he needed to rest and he had the early alert system of several clickers down in the alley and a locked door. He felt relatively safe for now, he didn't find anything amiss in the kitchen downstairs either.
