He was just as confused as everyone else was. Except probably a little bit more. Their path to the gym was surprisingly peaceful. They had encountered a few infected along the way, but those were taken down easily by Jason and the others. He explained his situation to them along the way.
"Um, it's not like I just stripped naked to show off my junk or whatever. I just woke up that way. I can't even remember my name."
When they reached the gym, everyone kind of huddled around wondering what the fuck to do next. He, however, just kind of stood there. He looked at Becca, and noted how nice her facial features were. Earlier, she had offered him her skirt, which, even though he normally (or at least... he thought he probably normally) would reject it, he gladly used to to cover himself more fully.
Everyone started barricading some of the larger entries into the gym. He didn't help.
Hmm, he thought, I kind of wanna shoot some hoops.

Chance broke away from the main group to go stand by Blank. He felt bad for the poor guy. Being in a zombie apocalypse was bad enough. Being in a zombie apocalypse without any memories had to be worse. And then to be naked, that fucking sucked. Why the hell was this guy naked anyway? Was he raped by a tank or something? Oh god, bad mental images. Baaad mental images.
"Looks like we're safe in here for a bit," said Chance offhandedly.
"By the way, I'm Chance," he said with a small smile.

A sudden rattling noise echoed throughout the Gym. A bang. Another bang. And then a smash. The sound appeared to be coming from nowhere.
Seconds later, a body fell from the ceiling. A young looking male hit the ground hard. He let out a groan of pain as his body impacted upon the hard surface. The male was wearing casual clothing, although fairly tattered. In his right hand, he was holding a pistol. Although his landing had clearly dazed him, he had still managed to keep a firm grasp on it. He shook his head as he was clearly dazed from the fall, and raised his body slightly. He looked around to find himself in the gym. There were people here. Ones he hadn't even seen before. With a struggle, he managed to pull himself to the feet. Finally.. People. From the look of them, they knew what they were doing. This was good.

It was finally a chance to take a breather and talk a little bit with Aubrey, whom she hadn't gotten a chance to talk to in a while. Words weren't the first thing out of her mouth though, just a hug would do before she said anything.
"Haha," she said, trying to think of what to say. Nervous might be an understandment, but it soon vanished. "Bonsoir, Monsieur Aubrey. C'est been.. un while, oui?" Aubrey spoke French, for sure, but she was used to the English/French mix of speaking. He'd understand her either way.
Then, something.. no, someone fell from the ceiling, which made Ben jumped back. She felt Aubrey somewhat catch her, as she didn't really fall, and she took it as a hint to pull out her pistol. She aimed it, carefully, almost skillfully, ready for anything. Could this be an Infected? He looked different, that's for sure. Like them, she thought, so maybe he was another survivor.
She inched closer and felt Aubrey, as well as Alphonse behind her, ready to make a move. Couldn't be too careful in these times. She was still wary of the naked kid, who she assumed they would call Blank from now on, but she hid her waryness.
"Qui es tu?" Benjamine said, keeping her pistol trained. "Est-ce que tu es un.. zombie? Comment tu t'appelles?!"

Becca yelped when the man fell from the ceiling. At this rate, she would die of a heart attack long before any zombie got close to her. She followed Ben's lead and started towards the (newest) newcomer, cautious of going to close for fear of falling debris and possibly more zombies. "Oh my gosh, are you alright?"

Looking around, Dan wasn't quite so fond of the way a gun was being waved at him. He stared at the person yelling at him in some weird language he couldn't understand. He heard the word "zombie" and smirked. Whoever this was, they were clearly mistaken. Ignoring her foreign ramblings, Dan turned to the girl who was speaking to him in a more calming tone. "Yeah, I'm fine, thanks." He managed to choke out, as he concealed his pistol into his hoody.

Out of everything that irked Benjamine, being ignored was number one. Ignore you, you better hope you could ignore the pain that was seering from your balls when she was done. She glared and walked up to the man and ultimately slapped him with her free hand.
"Tu es stupid. Tu ne ignore pas moi, d'accord? D'accord. Ef tu can pas understand moi, get un translator, tu stupid, stupid garcon."
She frowned, heavily, and then ignored the man for any amount of time afterward, going back over to Aubrey. She put her pistol in her waistband and waved to Aubrey as if she didn't go bitch face at the new guy.
"Alors, Aubrey. Qu'est-ce que tu been faire, mon ami?" She smiled her typical smile, which was warm and otherwise sunny. Alphonse, she noticed, made a face and walked away, going over to where Jamie was, probably for a quick kiss before anything happened.

Ash had been following the group of people for quite awhile. He didn't want to come out before. He was scared, so he just hid in the shadows and let them do all the work. But now he was getting tired of waiting around, and he just wanted some action. He wanted to kick ass, but he wasn't strong enough too. Wtfever. He decided to walk up to the group anyway. He look at the people, and they all seemed pretty normal except for the one man wearing a sweater and a skirt. Hmmm.
Ash then saw one kid jumping around like crazy around the gym. He was covered in rainbows.
"Cool." He said to himself.
He walked up to the boy and tugged on his shirt sleeve.
"What the fuck's up? I'm Ash."

Kassie walked over to the guy who had tried saving her, after hearing why he killed the girl she decided he wasn't a complete psycho.
"Hey, sorry for freaking out back there. I guess i shouldn't have jumped to conclusions. So how about we start over? I'm Kassie." She said with a friendly smile.

Not fully understanding what had just happened, Dan raised his right hand to his face and adjusted his shades. What the hell had just happened? Some crazy French girl had just attacked him and, from the odd word that he managed to pick up, called him stupid. She was fucking crazy. He couldn't really blame her though. This whole situation was more than enough to make anyone batshit insane. Still confused as to why he had just been hit, he turned to the girl who had previously spoke to him, hoping she might be able to make a bit of sense out of what had just occurred. "Ugh.. What was that about?"

Some guy had just fallen from the ceiling. That was pretty redic. He just turned away and tried to find anything he could to occupy himself. He spotted a basketball in the corner, and immediately ran to pick it. It was as if it was a memory calling to him.
He ran up to the basket, jumped as high as he could, and dunked the ball. He couldn't help but cheer for himself, which made the others look at him.
"Uhh, sorry. Go on with whatever."
It was then that a little boy walked up to him. Not too young, but not old.
"Hi, I'm Ash. I bet I can win if we play each other."
Ash stared at him fiercely, but he just laughed.
"Whatever. I could kick your ass. I just know it."

"O-oh, um," Becca stammered for a moment, not expecting Ben to slap the man. "I don't know exactly, but I think Benjamine's upset with with you over something, and that she's saying that you're stupid for it." Oh, if only she had taken French last semester, this would be much easier; at least she could understand pieces-parts.
"She speaks French, and only some English," Becca explained, glancing towards the girl in question. "I think some of the guys over there can understand her, but I don't speak French. You could ask one of them to translate for you?" If she survived all this, at least Becca would be able handle a wide variety of odd and awkward situations. "But, well, I'm Rebecca." She peered up at the hole in the ceiling and then back down to the man in front of her. "Are you sure you're okay?"

Audrey and her son, Liam had been far behind the group (unaware of how many survivors there were, of course) searching for supplies and keeping the horde at bay. So far they had both done a pretty good job of keeping fairly quiet, and hadn't run into any mutated infected. There really wasn't much to pick up among the debris and abandoned houses and buildings. Audrey was slightly disapointed, yet she had already doubted she would find anything at all.
She noticed her beloved son had been lagging just slightly. It was understandable, due to the fact they had been moving heavy objects and digging through junk for hours. She decided they would reach a stopping point soon, and maybe even get a quick cat nap in. If they both switched off being a lookout, of course.
"Hey, I know you're tired, sweetie. As soon as we find somewhere fairly safe to at least catch our breath we'll stop, alright?" she whispered to her son, making sure her talking wouldn't attract any unwanted attention. However, in the distance echoed a heavy gargled sound. The duo looked up for a moment. Audrey squinted her eyes slightly in confusion, thinking what the hell that sound could of been. More importantly, where it was coming from. It seemed to be getting closer, yet still at a distance. Suddenly, it became familiar. Her eyes widened and she looked at her son. "It's a boomer... Move this way." she whispered, panicked as she pointed into another corridor. They walked swiftly, but silently hoping the disgusting obese mass behind them hadn't been trailing them. Eventually, they reached the gym. Audrey opened the door gingerly, and let Liam in first. However, to both their surprise, there were several people already here.
They both paused in shock. Audrey studied everyone in the room, making sure what she was seeing was real. "Uhhh, hi!" she managed to spit out.

The teen had been following his mom for what seemed like ages, making quiet, yet annoyed grunts, sighs and moans in attempt to hint to his mother that he wanted to go somewhere else. They hadn't found much, and what they did find wasn't enough to want to keep Liam to keep digging through the filth.
His mother finally got the hint that Liam was a little worn out, not to mention his mind was drained from the repetitivness of his day. They began to move without having to stop to pick through something, yet even Liam stopped walking as soon as the both of them heard a strange noise. It took a few moments before Liam realized what it was, which he figured out from his mother. His eyes were equally as wide as Audrey's. Oh fuck. A fucking boomer. I wouldn't be surprised if i died today. Ugh, fuck me. he thought to himself, starting to get frantic. He wasn't immune to the virus like his mother.
He followed closely behind, looking around to make sure nothing else was lurking around. The gym was in plain view. Audrey had opened the door for Liam, and he stepped on through without giving a "thank you".
Liam was as surprised as Audrey. He couldn't believe his eyes a he, too, stared in awe at how many people were alive besides himself. He kept silent as Audrey gave an awkward greeting.
