Kiana smiled, giggling slightly. "I thought you didn't want the dead girl touching you." she laughed, poking his cheek instead of shaking the hand.

"Well, you never know. I'm a bit of a germaphobe, but etiquette comes before paranoia. Sorry about my fury. I'm just a little..." He cleared his throat, hesitating on what to say, then said, "...scared. I don't like to show fear, but this place is harsh." He lowered his hand, then bundled up tighter, shivering profusely. "I know it's a question you may not like to answer, but, what is it like? To die. To be born from a corpse?"

Kiana's smile faded, giving off a look of pure melancholy. She looked away, shrugging. "For me... it was just.. painful. Other than that, what came afterward was like a long sleep." a tear ran silently down her cheek. "It was more, what I left that..." her voice cracked "That hurt me most of all."

Steven scooted closer and put a hand on her shoulder, saying, "It's hard to lose what is dear to us. The trick is learning how to look forward. I hope you can forgive me for my impoliteness earlier."

Kiana swallowed hard, pushing back the memories. She slipped a pill into her mouth, then turned back to Steven, only to find his hand on her shoulder. Was her sadness making him pity her? She smiled slightly, nodding. "I'm also sorry, I've been a bit rude." she laughed slightly.

Steven looked around, and sighed. His gut told him to avoid the undead, no matter how much of their sanity was intact, but Steven saw a living, breathing human being sitting beside him. "I have another question. If you work at this facility to help your own 'kind,' then why not sabotage Area 57, so that no one will be reanimated against their will?"

Kiana cocked her head. "Well, I've never quite put that into my mind." she sighed, looking down. "I'm very weak, in many senses. I couldn't do that." Kiana finally dared a glance at him. She much felt like she was isolated from this man. Almost as if there was a barrier as they spoke. The thought saddened her. How she'd love to be how she used to be, and live a happy life, in love with Danny again, not having made those many mistakes. She swallowed hard.

"Don't be dismayed by the limits you burden yourself with. If you find weakness in yourself that you can't repair, then there is only one true solution. Find a friend, and ask they lend their strengths." He grinned lightly, her pale face reading as greatly troubled.

Kiana blushed a bit, embarassed at the fact that she most likely showed every single emotion she was currently feeling, like a banner across her face. "Too bad I've never known where to look~ I mean, what would a dead girl do with friends, anyway?" she laughed slightly, her features softening.

"Well, there is one thing a truly good friend is useful for. That's listening. If you have something to say, then a good friend is who you should say it too." Steven was attempting compassion, trying to cheer her up from her sad memories. At least, Steven thought she was remembering something sad, judging by her expression.

Kiana's face went back to its normal color. She was surprised that a man like Steven knew all this about friendship. Her hand went to the back of her name. "Hm. I don't have much to talk about besides moping at my crappy life." she laughed a bit.

"If you have a hard life, discussion isn't complaint. Go ahead, speak. I'm all ears." Steven rubbed his hands together, ready to listen.

Kiana eyed him warilly. "I met you about what? Five? Ten minutes ago? And now you want me to tell you about my life?" she laughed a bit. "Not much the type of thing you'd wish to hear, anyway. It's a bit disturbing."

"Ma'am, I'm ex-F.B.I. There isn't much in this world that can phase me. That spider person, the strange obsessionists of My Little Pony, and bureaucrats. Those are about the only things that can scare me. Go ahead. Tell your story." Steven was sitting closer to the dying fire, still shivering.

Kiana frowned. "I wonder wh-what's taking the others s-so long..." she was shivering slightly, too. "It's freezing, and we need more wood. I may be dead, but the cold is just as effective on me as anybody." she pouted slightly, then turned to Steven. "My story, eh?" she smiled slightly, knowing that he was trying to be kind. "Well, should I start out at the prime? That's when I died, just to say." she frowned again, laughing bitterly. "I was in love, with a man named Danny. Despite our young age, we were engaged, but, he just became... different." she swallowed hard. "He just wanted more power so much..." her eyes shut hard.
