The Escapist Avatar Adventure: An Open RP (Now Re-Opened!)

[bluerocker]

Airship Rising Dawn: Vermilion | Akane | Jake

[color=FF5349]

Current protocols approved.

[/color]

Vermilion materialized on the display at Jake's call and gave a hint of a smile,

"Greetings, Jake. It is good to see you upon the Dawn again. As you have already observed, what was supposed to be a simple supply gathering has gone... Haywire, to say the very least.  I could give you a list of current occupants of the Dawn if you wish? Furthermore, my compatriot Dimitri is on ground if you need another link to the members of the Dawn; if those communication rings have not already proven sufficient...

She paused a processing cycle, as she found someone attempting to reach for her from an unknown source, her eyes buzzing with light as she tried to find the source,

[color=FF5349]

 Oh, one moment. It appears someone is attempting to establish communications with me as well.....
....
....
....
Source of communication unknown. Sending query for identity of the original Querant. "

[/color]

As she said this, The Mage in Red found that a query entered his mind as well, asking that he identify himself before proceeding further in communication. However, with Red Mage entering the room, a bell went of in the back of Vermilion's mind, remembering what Creator Mark had mentioned about the Mage in Red, and several turrets turned their attention to Red Mage, with Vermilion asking in a cautious voice,

[color=FF5349]

"Jake, do you really think trusting this Mage is wise? According to my databanks, and experiences in intergratting with Master Mark, he has not had a good history of working with Author types, with which you are as well."

[/color]

Pay and Spray: Caim | Slindis | Rugal | Luceion

Caim's eyes widened after hearing Rugal's panicked state, and sent to his own children (and caretakers), "Cadolbolg, Ton Ton, Devon, answer me! Where are you?! Are you safe?"

Following that, Slindis' request for a soundoff went through the air and Devon answered back, making the warrior relax only faintly; as he was still waiting on a response from Ton Ton. As they waited, Angelus' voice entered their minds,

"Sounding off. Still alive, still dealing with airborne insects. I'll send you a report when I get a good look at all those noxious clouds of gas... Increasing altitude to avoid them."

However, with the quick actions of getting into the car and then quickly stopped by Gods knows who, Caim forced himself out of the car after Rugal shot his fireballs. Using the stored magic from the fight with the police to turn invisible, Caim charged and stopped when he brought it to the stranger's neck, the PDA spitting:

"LEAVE US AND MOVE YOUR VEHICLE! I have sons waiting for me and I will not hesitate to kill you to get back to them! Now since we're in a [u]hurry[/u], so if you'll be nice and move your damn car along, this doesn't have to get ugly. NO, we did not set off any damn bombs, and the cops here are corrupt anyway, so their judgement isn't very good to start with. Now, with that context in mind, will you go or not?!"

Yep, back to bloodlust for Caim, as it seemed to his compatriots.

Cadolbolg | Devon | Ella | Jenny

Devon did most of the talking in explaining to Cadolbolg's Father where they were and what was going on, and noticed the zombies on the TV, "I remember fighting things like that before... They don't like fire, if I remember correctly! Don't worry, Friends! I'll keep you safe with my fires!"

The little turtle puffed his chest out as they journeyed to the shopping district, and then took in a deep breath just in case the undead attempted to get a bite on any of his compatriots.

Downtown Los Santos, en Route to Glen Park: Teri | Garm | Ton Ton | Mercy Clarke

Upon hearing the explosion towards where Melethia ran off to, Teri hopped onto Garm and shoutted at Mercy, [color=0E59E4]"You're gonna have to do this delivery on the go, Ma'am! Garm, after Mel!"[/color]

The wolf sniffed the ground a bit before charging off in a direction, leaving Mercy to have to follow them on the piece of crap bike. On the way to Melethia, Teri felt Rugal and Slindis' voices touch her mind, and she answered through the rings, [color=0E59E4]"Sounding off for myself: Teri, accompanied by Garm, Ton Ton, AI Dimitri and a delivery girl following me! I am currently in Downtown Los Santos pursuing Melethia to a park! I think something's caught her nose again, and I've heard some kind of explosion. Naturally, I'm a bit worried about the situation. I'm regrouping with Mel as we speak! If it's undead we're worrying about, I think I'm petty well equipped for that, but I'll attempt to meet you guys at any sort of rendezvous point."[/color]

Alongside that, Ton Ton added, [color=15650D]"I'm alright, Mr. Caim! I'm with Ms. Teri and soon, Ms. Melethia! I think we'll be alright."[/color]

After a few more moments, Garm turned a harsh left and found himself in a tunnel with Melethia and.... Oh no, not the man with the guns again! And was Mel hunched over a... Oh shit! Teri gingerly got off of the wolf and asked, [color=0E59E4]"Mel? Are you alright? There was an explosion and.... I take it you're disarming that, right?"[/color]

"Oh, well if that's the case you can take my- oh you son of a *****!" She said, as Caim closed in on her and Rugal launched his attack at the same time, although Caim was... a bit *too* impatient, he beat the fireball there, Tori proceeded to punch him in the stomach, and then uppercut hit to the jaw, the delay this caused in his movements allowed the fireball to catch up and strike, but she used Caim as a shield against it. Then almost in the same fashion as Caim's wheel spontaneously switches weapons, a spear appeared in her hands from nowhere, which she used to pole vault over Caim and brought it down of rugal's head, using "every light casts a shadow" (roll 1-4 negative levels) she used the blunt end, and it was more to pacify than to attack, still might have given him a bump though, and the temporary decrease in level, was both what really made it hurt, and a little bit of revenge. she then puts the spear in the ground behind her, and back flips to balance on it on one foot. "I was ABOUT to say... *ahem* if that's the case you can take my car, especially for the reason that a friend of mine is with you... sorry, but you were both the first to strike me after that explanation." she said, tossing the keys to the car to Rugal she hopped down pulling the spear from the ground as she did. Her eyes fixing on Slindis almost as though to ask the question of why she was with.... Rugal?

Location: Big Poppa's Mansion.

Looking at the large group leaving, Shawn simply moved into the room and tried to pull the trigger whilst aiming at them.
*CLICK* *CLICK*
Those two guns had little ammo to spare, either a incredibly smart move or something not smart at all. Throwing the weapons down he ran towards the exit, but took a gaze at the city.

"(I have no idea if my pray has any connection to this, but if I get hold of that man I'll know some details.)" Shawn thought before running out of the same exit, hoping that he would be easily able to capture his target.

 

[Sgt_Jakeman214]

Airship Rising Dawn: Vermilion | Akane | Jake | Red Mage
"I guess you didn't know he was on the ship then. Stand down your weapons. Give him a chance to declare his intentions, as I'm sure he'll do. And yes please, can I have a list of crew deployed, for size of my rescue chopper? Still looking for your body RM, lost in the Seas of Chaos?" Jake said, still offering his handshake.

Akane, for her part, merely huffed and returned to looking back over the city. She'd helped to kill the Red Mage once before...

 

[bluecrimson]

Pay and Spray: Caim | Slindis | Rugal | Lucieon | Tori

It was at that point where Slindis brought her voice to a harsh chill, one that anyone that had worked with her or knew someone that worked with her knew very well. [color=c200]"Okay, all of you. There may be misunderstandings, but I'll be damned if I'll just sit here and watch as we all go at each other like children while this city burns! Rugal, Caim, back off now. This is Tori, and I can confirm she can be trusted. Kantori, we need all the help we can get to stop this undead attack. The police here can not be trusted, and even with that, we onlt went as far as was necessary to secure our escape. You'll find more living than dead there - not ideal, but a lot better than the bloodbath you're claiming! Now unless there's a problem here, we're all going to work together before this town's more filled with the dead than the living.

Got it?"[/color] She was not in the mood for any more of the could-be teammates trying their best to kill each other, and she was fully ready to put a stop to it herself if needed.

Cadolbolg | Devon | Ella | Jenny

Devon responded to Jake first. "I'm headed to a safer area with Cadolbolg, Ella, and Jenny to this area named Arco del Oeste in Bone County, then Ganton. A Helo would work best if you could manage it."

Right after that, he contacted Caim. "It's a lot quieter here, but I don't think it'll stay that way for long. We'll be headed to another area, but I'll grab Ton-Ton when I can find him."

After that, Devon sighed and apologized to Ella. "Seems like that Sushi will have to wait. Can you cover the combat against the zombies with Cadolbolg? Last I heard, they weren't much for talking."

Ella nodded and grinned mischievously. "You really owe me for this, Devon. Triple round at sushi, mister, and Cadolbolg eats all he wants."

Downtown Los Santos, en Route to Glen Park: Teri | Garm | Ton Ton | Mercy Clarke

Melethia didn't even bother turning around to Vercetti as she worked on the bomb, responding in a very irritable voice. "I don't tell you how to kill people, you don't tell me how to handle explosives. Now shut your mouth and let me handle this." Now, most people would have gone straight for the Gas, but that was a fool's move. Melethia instead decided to pull out two specialized nonconducting blades and severed all of the cords feeding power to the C4 in one surgical motion.

Without the explosive charge, the first major part of the disposal was done.

The Undead Merchant was quite pensive about the whole ordeal, watching Rugal's reactions slowly, looking for any faults in his expression that could give away some secret to his meanderings. There was few, but Lucieon managed to read some. He kept those to himself while rugal fought the new obstacle. His right hand fell to Estoc in case they needed to end the foolery quickly.

Red Mage | Akane | Jake | A.I. Vermillion

His heart and hopes rose and fell in quick succession. A.I. Vermillion was present, and training weapons at him, but its voice was different. It sounded... off. At least to him. It wasn't the same voice he had known. Really, I am alone. It was a grim thought. Red Mage scratched the back of his head with his right hand, scruffling some of the airy white locks on his head.

"Good to meet you Jake," he said cooly, "but the Vermillion Intelligence speaks truth. I am not in particulars a 'hero' as it were. At least not anymore." He gave a look at the turrets, "but my character stats are inherently broken. If you know what I mean. I cannot participate. Only observe." He put a hand on Jake's back. "Good luck out there though."

 

[Generic NPC 22]

Los Santos: Mercy (A Little Bit Ago)

[color=15650D]"That would be me... But I wasn't expecting any sort of mail. Who sent it, and why?"[/color]

The Bicycle Courier shrugged at the question. She'd never met whomever it was that sent the Miniature Godzilla the package that she started trying to pull from her bad at that very moment.

"I dunno, but whatever this thing is, it's real *BOOPING* heavy." Mercy said as she grunted the object out of her bag before it landed on the ground with a very large:

*THUD*

"What the bloody *BOOP* is that?" The College Student Aged Messenger asked as she looked at the extremely large Lunch Box and extremely Pink Lunch Box, emblazoned with the words "JEM IS TRULY OUTRAGEOUS!" on it. From the size of the Lunch Box it must have belonged to a REALLY REALLY REAAAALLLLY tall human or a Young Giant. Judging by the picture that graced the Lunch Box, the later was more probable.

"So it's all yours. Okay?" Mercy said as she started strapping her bag back onto her and checking her Data bracelet for her next delivery, only to find that her next delivery was in this very dimension, to someone named Jenny.

"God *BOOPING* Dammit!" The girl cursed as she started walking towards a near by park.

Spoiler: Contents of Lunch Box

Black Mold Pudding
Marinated shriekers
A barrel of lard with unidentifiable meat chunks
Assorted shrubberies
Gnome-salad sandwich
Baked bones (for roughage)

----------The Park----------​

Standing in the middle of the Park, Mercy couldn't help but notice the fact that she was being followed by the very people that she had just delivered the package to.

"(Stalkers!)" The Girl thought to herself as she considered tazing the whole lot of them just to teach them a lesson. Only they didn't exactly act like stalkers, they were heading towards someone else, some little girl that was perched over some sort of weird looking brief case, just a few feet away from where Mercy Clarke was taking her Union Sanctioned break.

"Hey, little girl? I think those people are -" The College Student paused as she realized what the girl with the green hair was working on.

"That's a bomb isn't it?" Mercy said in a rather defeated voice as she realized that this was the worst job she'd ever had.

 

[bluecrimson]

Los Santos: Mercy, Melethia, Teri

----------The Park----------​

Melethia snapped back at the woman, still not really turning around. "Yeah, it's a bomb. Unless you were trained in neutralizing them, I suggest you let me do this." The more Mercy watched, the more she noticed small piles grouping around the girl. However, it wasn't for a bit where she glimpsed the biohazard emblem on the canister.

 

[Generic NPC 22]

Glen Park, Los Santos: Mercy, Melethia, Teri


"Yeah, it's a bomb. Unless you were trained in neutralizing them, I suggest you let me do this."

The statement that came from the young girl, probably in that tween age range, made Mercy do quite the double take as her mind considered the possibility that her life was about to come to an utterly violent end. Her body didn't quite know how to the handle that little bit of news so it tried to do everything that it could think of doing all at once, those things being running away, fainting, screaming, pleading for mercy and begging for a miracle. The end result was the Bicycle Courier flopping over onto her back.

"BLARG!!" She blarg'd and laid there staring at the blue skies, waiting for the inevitable.

But wait, hadn't she majored in chemistry and electronic engineering for a semester? Couldn't all that knowledge that she had gained over the period of time count for something?

Sitting up, she peered at the contraption over Melethia's shoulder.

"Did you try taking out the batteries?" Mercy asked calmly.

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Rugal

After the initial confusion about Tori had passed, Rugal got in her Cruiser and got back on track.
"Dimitri, I need those bomb sites, NOW!" He shouted into his PDA as the AI scanned the city.

[color=3897E0]"Standby...*Elevator Music* Okay, I've tracked 2 more bomb sites, one in Glen Park and the in [link=http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20100115050841/gtawiki/images/thumb/a/ae/Las_Colinas.jpg/640px-Las_Colinas.jpg]
Los Colinas[/link]. You'll need to go pass the affected East Los Santos area, near the train tracks. I'm detecting high numbers of infected. Be careful."[/color]

Dimitri sent back before returning to his work on the Rising Dawn.
"Copy that. Okay...Melethia should have the one in Glen Park under control. Hold on, this might get bumpy." He warned as he took off towards the bomb site.

Less than a minute later, they were nearing Ground Zero, hordes of Infected littering the streets, burned out cars, people running for their lives, Gang Members in green attempting to stem the tide while corrupt police watched, glad that people who took pride in killing cops en masses were getting what was coming to them. It was a scene of pure chaos.

Sir Bomb McExplody

Melethia was able to get rid of the C4 charge with no real hassle, but as she moved the charge, she discovered a secondary trigger.
A simple logic gate would release the seal on the Canister if there was no charge going to the C4 when the timer ran out, allowing for a much smaller but just as lethal gas cloud to be released. While it too wasn't going to take much doing, the design of the bomb indicated Mass Production.

Shawn.
Location: Big Poppa's Mansion.

Back with Big Poppa, Shawn chased after him until they were outside the mansion.
From there, he could get a good look at the Los Santos skyline.
And the sickly green cloud and smoke coming from the ghetto.
Focusing on his mission, he saw Big Poppa shouting orders to his men, mostly just "Shoot! Shoot!".
As they caught wind of Shawn and opened fire, the man himself threw his laptop into the back of his Feltzer before hopping behind the wheel and speeding off, hoping for a easy getaway.

 

[bluecrimson]

Glen Park, Los Santos: Mercy, Melethia, Teri

Melethia grunted. "I isolated the charge, so that's covered for the most part. I'm still isolating the other elements here, although the canister is too sensitive to move around on a whim. Again, unless you feel comfortable keeping the canister safe or unless you want to be a second pair of eyes here, I think I've got this handled." This girl had a clear case of tunnel vision on this bomb - not usually an admirable trait, but it was what was needed when a biological attack was at risk here.

Were Caim and Slindis, the two of them who could afford to take their eyes off the road, paying attention, Tori was running and jumping across the nearby rooftops at considerable enough a speed as to keep up with their car. Using a handheld radio to speak to the car. "Probably not the best time... but when you said you had daughters, and Slindis is in the car with you... do you mean Mele?" She said, making it clearer than ever that she knew them... but also making it clear she had doubts they'd be together for more than mutual interest, especially due to the fact Slindis is a paladin, by the very definition one of the most holy people she knows... at least as far as Eberron could get. While she'd heard of Rugal on the other hand, arms dealer, leader of a group of some of the worlds worst villains... she'd seen a lot of irony and contradictory behaviors back home, she'd even seen a vampire paladin who despised the undead... this was... equally awkward, she decided. Wait... did he say 2 daughters? For a good three seconds they would have seen her stop, and just freeze with her mouth hanging open, before she caught up again, and decided not to ask.

 

[StormShaun]

Shawn.
Location: Big Poppa's Mansion.

Before.

Before leaving the bar to chase Big poppa, Shawn saw a familiar figure on a movie poster that was framed.
One person seemed familiar but he had never met him before.

Spoiler

Pausing in his mind for a second he decided to send out this information to his fellow Brethren.
"I'm sure they will get a kick out of this." He snickered as he left the room and into gunfire.

After.

The bullet storm heading towards Shawn was ignored, but a graceful object was thrown at them.
Shawn knew they were there but ... "Like I have time to deal with you shitheads!
He yelled in a sinister voice, eyes still locked onto his pray.

The object thrown at the group of gunmen was only known as a "Plasma grenade", a weapon that unleashes a powerful wave of green matter which reduced the physical matter in front of it. By the time the grenade's pin system initiated, the gunmen were all too distracted by the weird object.

Leaping over a fence with natural movement, Shawn had reached the garage too.
An explosion of green could be heard and seen.
Though right now Shawn had a little more luck with the vehicle he chose.
"What a dumb ass ... should of chose something good, like this." Shawn pointed to something he could actually ride.

Spoiler

In the Wasteland of the World Shawn found a Vault-Tec bike and repaired it up to usable conditions, he had it ever since.
So without wasting another second the Wanderer turned hunter accelerated with all his might to catch up to his pray.
With his Ranger pistol ever so ready, to either take out the car ... or something else.

 

[bluecrimson]

East Los Santos: Caim | Slindis | Rugal | Lucieon | Tori

Slindis shouted out to Kantori on the way. [color=c200]"That's exactly who I'm talking about. Look at the streets, though. I don't know how long you've been here, but how can you stick with the city watch when they stand by passively while the citizens struggle to defend themselves? Can you really work with that kind of group? I know you can see the right path to take; just do what's right for everyone involved instead of a small group!"[/color]

They were right near Ganton when Slindis turned to Rugal in the car. [color=c200]"When we get there, we need to find out how we can store this. What's the decay rate of the gas? What concentration has the lethal effect? Our options here are limited, so we need to work this out now."[/color]

The car ran over an undead as she addressed Caim and Lucieon. [color=c200]"How much do you two know of fighting undead? They're different than fighting regular humanoids. If you don't know how to fight them, tell me now so I can help you."[/color]

Cadolbolg | Devon | Ella | Jenny

Devon thought about it for a good amount of time before responding with hailing a taxi. "I'll give you $200 dollars to get us to Ganton. You see those undead, just run them over. Hit the side alleys, do what you need, just get us there." The cabbie was very hesitant, but with the sheer conviction the man spoke with convinced the cabbie to at least get them there.

"Come on, Jenny. I know it sounds stupid, but we have to find somewhere to get a footing, Ganton's looking like the best place to find that footing. And unlike most outsiders, we can provide something they need - rallying and healing."

Ella was getting over the loss of the dinner as she got in the car and checked her Wheel for the Kamas. She was going to get tested tonight in a big way, and maybe she could see if all that time away that Devon had been with Caim and Angelus had helped her man enough to avoid him having to pay for the most expensive sushi on their eventual dinner.

Downtown Los Santos, en Route to Glen Park: Teri | Garm | Ton Ton | Mercy Clarke | Tommy Vercetti

As she saw the secondary mechanisms, she knew she would need some good hands real fast. "Old Blood, I'm gonna need some help here real fast. There's a secondary charge here, and I'm going to need help right now if we're all going to live. Can you do that?"

 

[Diablo1099_v1legacy]

Rugal

"GET OFF THE DAMN ROAD!" Rugal shouted as he plowed through a small group of undead.
"The Gas becomes semi-inert after detonation, it loses much of it's danger afterwards. The problem at this point is getting to the other bomb and taking down the Infected. If this is T-Virus, then the spread would be caused by contact with other infected. That means this one bomb alone could take down the entire city!" He explained before he was forced to skid to a halt in front of a makeshift barricade made by the locals to try and slow down the undead.
"Shit! Gotta go on foot from here. Alright people, don't hold back, so much as a scrape from one of these things could be fatal." He warned before he got out of the car and started wading through the hoard, his slashing aura making short work of them.

Ganton

One rather eventful Taxi Ride later, they were at their destination: Ganton, THE crime ridden Ghetto of a city built entirely of them.
Yes Ironically, it was the Grove Street Gang that was keeping order, moving wounded, evacuating neighbours and, Most importantly, killing anyone that came near.
Thus when the Taxi entered the cul-de-sac, everyone dropped what they were doing and pulled guns out.
For a solid 10 seconds, non-stop gun-cocking filled the air.
"You! Get the hell out of here, This place is on Lockdown! Now get your motherfucking asses outta the Grove!" shouted What appeared to be the leader as he aimed an AK-47 at the Taxi.

Big Poppa's

The goons were vapourised instantly as Shawn went after the Leader himself.
Seeing how much damage he had managed to do thus far, Big Poppa did everything he could to shake the assassin, driving though lamp-posts and mailboxes in a attempt to cause him to crash.
All the while, he was trying to make his way out of town towards the countryside, aiming to get out of the city before Deadshot sent another assassin.

 

[bluecrimson]

Rugal

Slindis sent the information to Melethia after hearing, shifting into Water Stance as she fought to get a headway. [color=c200]"Rugal, I can more than handle myself."[/color] Although the zombies may have been a bit more resilient than normal people, Slindis had taken care of her fair share of undead in her career as a paladin. This experience showed by how she actively avoided punching the head itself (THe teeth would cause too much of a risk through residual damage) and instead went for the throat and legs. As a larger mass of zombies came nearby, Slindis focused for a moment before calling out and holding a small pendant with an odd arrowhead.

[color=c200]"In the name of Tira Miron and the Silver Flame, go to your final resting place!"[/color] Rugal felt the wave wash over the Undead there, outright reducing a good amount of them to dust and sending the others in the area of effect fleeing.

Slindis used Turn Undead [http://ddowiki.com/page/Turn_undead]! With the power of her faith, she affects 26 undead (23 from her Paladin Level, 3 from rolling 2d6)

Turn Undead uses left: [b]11[/b]

Ganton

Devon kept his cool as he responded to Sweet Johnson, having a good feeling that he needed to show no weaknesses. "It's on lockdown, but you still need someone to patch your guys up. I can get that done and more, and quicker than the local clinics which are overwhelmed. Without someone to patch your boys up, you're going to have problems in a short time. Not to mention that as it goes on, bullets will start getting low, and I can help there as well. Just give the word, and I'll more than pull my weight here." His eyes locked onto Sweet to let Sweet know he would not back down.

Ella looked around at the others ready to gun them down and got ready to pull the Kama from the wheel. Either way, she was going to have to fight here. it was the only language they'd understand.

 

[Ninjamedic]

Teri | Garm | Ton Ton | Mercy Clarke | Tommy Vercetti

"I don't tell you how to kill people, you don't tell me how to handle explosives. Now shut your mouth and let me handle this."

Okay, little insulting, but she has me there. Though how in the hell does a 12-year old know how to use and disarm bombs like this!? Tommy simply shook his head and leaned back, he knew not to annoy someone when handling something like this. ....And then Mercy and Teri showed up. Great, now the rest of the gang is here. Still, the older girl seems smart, maybe she'll just keep qui-


"BLARG!!"

"Did you try taking out the batteries?"

Tommy facepalmed. One minute relaxing on a beach, finally learning how to swim, the next, stuck watching an am-dram production of Chronicles of Narnia attempt to disarm a chemical bomb.

"Old Blood, I'm gonna need some help here real fast. There's a secondary charge here, and I'm going to need help right now if we're all going to live. Can you do that?"


Old Blood, not a bad nickname when you think about, I've been called worse. "Right, let me see" he took one look at the bomb, realising there possibly wouldn't be enough time to defuse it. "What about a controlled explosion? Detonate it in a place where we can stop the gas spreading?" He noticed a small storeroom, the size of a closet, just to the side of them. "Can you move it?" He began checking the storeroom for any vents or pipes. He spotted a roll of duct tape on the shelf.

Tori jumped down from the rooftop near where they had to stop, not really minding her questions weren't answered... now wasn't really the time... catching up with an old friend would have to wait. Panting for a minute after running for so long, and slashing a few zombies with the sharp end of the spear, in the head as she found usually effective, she then said "by the way, about stopping your car before, you've got my apologies if you want them. Quick question too... you said that these zombies were result of... infection, disease? Does that sound about right? If so, it'd probably be best to let me take lead. Through a lot of focus and training, I've gained total sway over my bodies immune system. In short, I can't get sick with anything that doesn't involve magic. She said, as she slung her spear over her shoulders. "Where are we headed anyway? You look like you know where your going. I don't... any specific place worthy of noting we'll be headed through?" She asked, hoping zombies would be the most of their troubles... considering the short amount of time she spent as a police officer... she knew, at least a little bit, about how violent gangs got here without the possibility of blaming the zombie apocalypse by biological warfare on rivals.

The Lone Wanderer, Shawn.
Location: The now 'revived' Streets.

The roads of the city were disgusting, even more to the motorcycle driver whom had killed many 'ghouls' in his world. Even so, he has befriended them before ... well at least the nice ones. Judging by these ones they were "Feral ghouls!" He spat out as he ran one over, looking behind his shoulders he could see many of them, a pack you could say. "They move slow though ..." He noted down for future battle plans before returning his eyesight forward and dodging the mailbox. [Perception 7]

"Haha, takes more then ... crap." He said to himself as he saw a lamp post completely blocking his way. In mere seconds he would soon flip with the bike, options.

3. Something else.
4. Screw it. *Crashes*

[/b][/color]

Preparing himself before impact, Shawn held one of his Ranger Sequoia.
Impact, and then lift off. this moment reminded him of the time he launched rockets ... and he has launched more then several. "You'll see firsthand why they call me the Messiah!" His words spread across the air, VATS was already activated before launch.

Target One: Tire.
Target Two: Right Shoulder.

Before he landed on the ground, two shots were fired.
Now it was either up to his unknown luck or his superior experience to see what happens.

Akane nodded and joined Jake as they headed down to the hanger bay. Both had different thoughts on their minds as they traveled. Not a word was spoken as the reached the hanger and got into the conveniently left around Black Hawk Helicopter. A few strokes on his tablet PC and it became the armed variant, toting a pair of .50cal gunpods and a pair of rocketpods on the winglet stations. Jake jumped in the pilot's seat whilst Akane stood in the main doorway looking out. The big chopper powered up and rolled forwards, cleanly launching out into the open skies.

"All callsigns all callsigns this is Spellcaster 1-1. We are airborne and on our way to Grove Street to provide air support and a ride to those who need a friendly pick me up. Where would youse lot all be without ya local pilot?" Jake broadcast across all rings and radios to those who had them of the Rising Dawn. His Tablet PC silently worked away, it's own little slice of Vermillion keeping Jake from having to worry about manual comms.

As they flew across the descending hellscape of the city below, Akane looked upon it with a steel gaze. Two very important things were missing from her, and she would find out why by the end of the day.

She glanced back to the young man flying the chopper. Even if it means he must pay the price...
