Drip, drip, drip.
Capricorn groaned, turning over to avoid the brown sludgelike water from hitting her face.
Where am I now?
Pulling herself to a seat, she took stock of her 'bedroom' from last night. The building that she was in was obviously decrepit, but empty, warm, and for the most...
thank you :) will update with my character submission in a fewImage of looks:
Name: Capricorn Leigh
Age: 18
Personality: Capricorn has a sharp mind and a lighthearted personality, which masks her sadness of losing her twin sister during the war. She also has a strong sense of justice...
Heidi called out weakly to her partner.
"Dan?"
He came over to her, helping her to her feet. She noticed they were near the Captial Building.
"Let's go inside." she suggested on a whim. "Too much confusion out here. We need to make a plan."
"I'm glad we're not alone." Heidi said to the British woman.
She saw the tall white peak of the Washington Monument come into view, and she shifted uncomfortably in her seat. Her shoulder still hurt, her hair was singed, and both of them were covered in a gritty film of soot and fine dust...
Heidi settled herself into the leather seat of the helicopter, thankful to be able to catch her breath. The confusion on the ground was a stark contrast to the calming humming of the motor. Slipping on the headset
she said to the two others, "DC should only be a few minutes by chopper, no?"...
Heidi watched as her partner shot down the crate, which distracted the assailants enough for them to scurry across the street to safer venues. As she stopped to finally catch her breath, there was a blinding flash of light, accompanied by a deafening explosion.
She saw that Dan was trying to...
Heidi was immeasurably glad to see her partner heading towards her, and by her quick assessment, he was relatively unhurt. The happy mood was cut short by the deafening sound of rounds impaling themselves into what was left of their car.
"There is about a brigade-sized terrorist group out...
(Sorry! I'm in the middle of moving, so my posts might be slow for today and I'll be away tomorrow. Don't worry though -- I'm watching the thread, so I won't miss any posts when I come back.)
"Of course." Heidi groaned, irritated by the lack of information. Nevertheless, she prepared herself...
(Should we slow the plot down?)
Heidi saw the tear glisten on the man's face in the light of the fire, but she chose not to comment on it. I know guys always want to seem tough...I don't want to hurt his feelings. Instead she averted his attention, catching the sight of a disoriented girl...
The adrenaline was already pumping in her veins as she slid into the passenger's seat of Dan's agency car. She had been young when 9/11 had happened, but she still held the memories of the fear and confusion that the people around her had felt, as well as how it had shaken the nation's...
Coffee shops have always been the cliche meeting spots of spies and criminals alike, because their dim lighting and their design that facilitated intimate conversation. As they sat over their lattes, Heidi reflexively looked around for wandering ears before asking Dan, "So what exactly does the...
Heidi grinned at her new partner. The brand-spanking-new badge felt right in her pocket, and she felt like she could take on the world.
"Oh, my time in Quantico wasn't too bad." she started. "I got decent marks in everything, and I was exceptional in marksmanship. I'm sure between what I've...
