With a few quick words among the three, including a poke at how Joel had more stamina than both her and Lily combined the three started their journey towards the outpost, Taking the lead Lauren brought them through one alley and the next, through one bared gate and another. Finally coming out on to one of the main streets after alley hoping the three found themselves on the main street leading towards the highway, the outpost lay about an hours walk outside city limits and it'd take them maybe two to get out of that. The daunting task ahead of her made Lauren wish she had managed to get the car she had found a few weeks ago up and running, but, it was shot, and she hadn't managed to find another one yet.
Making their way out on to the street Lauren heard as Joel asked if they had caffine at their place, or on them. Mentioning that he hated coffee and that a soda would work Lauren chuckled, the street clear for the time she spun around and began walking backwards. "Caffeine?" She questioned with a stuck out tongue. "Yea. Here." Spinning around to face forward again Lauren let her pace fall a bit allowing Joel to catch up as she swung her bag around by the strap to be in front of her, unzipping the front pocket she pulled out an old, somewhat beat up can of Dr. Pepper, probably somewhat flat by this point but it was caffeine in the end. "Here." She repeated handing the can over before zipping her bag up again and returning it to her back. Pulling ahead and taking the lead once more she took them down another string of alleyways.
Spending so much time in the backstreets of San Fran before the end proving to have it's uses she looked up to the parts of the skyline she could see to get her bearing "This should take us to the street leading back to the highway exit in to town, from there we can start heading towards the outpost." She explained. "It's about an hour, maybe two out of town." Glancing back to Joel she shot him a smile before doing the same with Lily. "Think you can do it?" She teased the both of them.
