rolls out of tumbling accident's way>Aims at tumbling one>fires half a clip
"Yea, becoming pancake flat wasn't on my to do list."

Staying cool was the best thing he could do, aiming carefully was first priority, then came steady hand. Even with pain rushing though his body he had to ignore it. After all these years in the wastes, pain was an everyday activity.

 

[Sky Captanio]

I think we should close it. Same reason as ta2ce.

Jimmy>Replies>Xege. I'm in as long as we don't become another street gang awrding itself the title "Faction"

 

[Xegewrath]

// Okay, I'll close the RP off.

Argura & Jarvis
The moment the hulking mass started tumbling towards Argura, churning up clouds of bloody dust in its wake, Argura ducked out of the way. Becoming a pancake was not on the top of his to-do list. However, the weight of the Accident propelled it so fast that it managed to slam into Argura's shoulder, bruising it slightly. (Argura loses 5 HP) This however, did not nothing to hinder his intense concentration of killing off the beasts. As soon as he recovered, he unloaded half his magazine into the downed Accident for safeties sake, then retaking aim on the remaining enemy. (Argura loses half a clip)

Jarvis went for brute force and aimed at the Accident that was charging at him right in the head, firing off rounds as rapidly as he could that brutally tore apart what could vaguely be described as the Accidents face. The beast growled in anger- right before another bullet lodged into its neural center and put it down for good. The creature sank to the ground, blood and slime oozing out of its head in jets... (Jarvis loses half a clip)

Max, Xege & Jimmy
Xege reassured Max & Jimmy, using the full extent of his charm and attractive lack of wit to convince them to create a new group with them.

Xege > Max & Jimmy > "Well, since we aren't going to be a faction, we should come up with a name that signifies that we are some sort of group... but not one of those bastards. That should reassure the people in Haven about our intent."

Xege scratches his head, brainstorming for ideas..

 

[the Tadman]

Max > Says > "How about...the Cluster?"

Max then raises his head up high, proud of his suggestion.

So this is when the Cluster is born right?

 

[Sky Captanio]

Jimmy>Replies>Max Cluster? Sounds like a breakfast cereal. Meh it'll do.
Cool i'm one of the founding members!

 

[Xegewrath]

Xege grins and laughs > Pats Trikly on the back > "Yeah dude, it IS kind of cheesy sounding. But we'll go with it. At least people will more likely laugh at us than cower or run in fear now!" > continues laughing.

In that spontaneous moment, the concept of the Cluster was born. However, it wasn't ready for any serious action yet. The small group had no clue that they would find yet another two members in The Wastelands soon..

// Well then. The next act will be how we encounter Argura and Jarvis in the wasteland. Those two have got to be pretty lonely at the moment, aye?

Xege > To Group > "Well, I suggest we go back to either one of our houses to rest for the night. Unless one of you is feeling particularly depressed, going to the wastelands now is not a particularly good idea."

 

[Sky Captanio]

Jimmy>Replies>Xege You can come to my house if you want. It's near here. And I got beer.

 

[the Tadman]

Max > Reply > Xege > "I'm up for going now. Going exploring at a murderous, dangerous wasteland is so the right thing to do right now. Yah and we can just forget about supplies, who cares if we starve!" He says it in a sarcastic voice.

Max > Ask > Jimmy > "What do you think, kiddo?"

 

[Sky Captanio]

Jimmy>Replies>Max Yeah sure either way

 

[Xegewrath]

Xege's eyes light up at the prospect of enjoying a nice, ice cool beer. > Replies to Jimmy > "Let's go. Right now. now now now now," > Turns back to Max and grins > "You go ahead first, I'll meet you in the wastelands tomorrow morning" > Turns back to Jimmy in excitement

 

[Sky Captanio]

Jimmy>Leads Xege to house> Gives beer>Says So where are we gonna set up this Cluster?

 

[Dragonrabbit]

Jarvis > Sits down, leaning against a rock > says to Argura, "Good work back there ya young punk. How are your cuts? Anything severe?"

 

[the Tadman]

Max > Goes back to his home > Drops his stuff in a corner > Falls on the bed and instantly falls asleep.

 

[Xegewrath]

// Hey, just a heads up, if anyone currently participating in this RP uses MSN, add me at headcrabbed[at]gmail[dot]com.

Xege waves goodbye to Max as he heads for home. The moment he arrives at Jimmy's house, he immediately goes for the beer and gulps it down in big gulps.

Say to Jimmy > "Huh. Funny he didn't insist on coming with us. Kinda antisocial. Oh well. I was thinking we'd build a headquarters somewhere near the outskirts of Haven, in the Wastelands. Accidents rarely cross over barricaded areas. Just set up a few fences in the morning over a few days, and they shouldn't be a problem."

Xege takes another large gulp of beer.

Suggests > "I want to get this started as soon as possible. We should rest soon in preparation for tommorrow. Don't want to venture into the Wasteland exhausted."

// To Max & Jimmy: Our storyline shouldn't advance much further until the next day arrives, so keep it as minimal as possible until Jarvis & Argura finish up whatever they have to do. Then I'll start Chapter 2, which will officially declare the arrival of morning.

 

[Sky Captanio]

Jimmy>Walks to bed>Takes box from under bed>Opens and takes out M4 and M9> Strips down.>Says to Xege>You got guns?

 

[Xegewrath]

Xege says jokingly to Jimmy > "Woah man, I don't know you that well yet."

Xege then takes out his MK23 and says > "She's a real beauty, isn't she?"

 

[Sky Captanio]

Jimmy>Replies>Xege>Sure you don't want something bigger? I got a spare kit in here y'know. Only five clips though so if you took it we'd only have half each.

I hope that's Ok. I think it's a good idea because it has an advantage (You getting an M4) and a disadvantage (half ammo)

 

[Xegewrath]

// Dude, the M4A1 is your RIFLE!

 

[Sky Captanio]

Yes but seeing as I was in the army I have a spare kit and rifle. I was thinking the goods would balance against the bads seeing as you shouldn't have one.

 

[Xegewrath]

// I'm not really keen into allowing anyone to startup with extra weapons, so let's just assume you get normal loadout for a soldier. Also, it's 2am now, so I'm heading to sleep! Night people!
