Survivors: Roxanne

These boys have no idea what they're doing, do they?

"Lafitte's right, Marcus." Roxanne joins them, but keeps a fair distance. "We've got no idea what's going on here. They could be armed. They could want us dead..."

"But if they're innocent, we can't just leave them here." Marcus argued. "Especially if they're alive."

"Fine." She pulls the gun out from her adoptive hoodie's pocket, pointing it at the two bodies.

"What are you doing?!" Lafitte took hold of her arm, pulling it down. "I know it's empty, but..."

"Exactly, it's empty. But they don't know that." She nods towards the two slumped on the floor. "It's a scare tactic. If they're out to harm us, they're gonna comply with our wishes since they think they have a loaded gun pointed to their heads. But if they're innocent, they're just gonna be a little scared." She jerks her arm from Lafitte's grip, resuming her previous pose.

"And what if they attack you anyway?" Lafitte frowns.

"Then we may all die." She replies, oddly cheerful. "Fancy waking them, Marcus?"
