Fantasy Murder: The Shadow's Grip

[Verite]

(Edwards not short anymore lol)

OOC: Oh, right. EoS Ed. I forgot. Fix'd.

 

[Sovereign]

Blake nodded her head at the man's clear understanding of the Japanese culture. Ignoring his last comment, she let out a small laugh of approval. For such a loudmouth, he honestly didn't seem that bad of a person. "Well, thank you for your comments. I sincerely appreciate it."
She leaned on the edge of the roof next to Isaac Clarke and looked at the young Annie, awaiting her story of the virus. Blake would explain it herself, but it was clear she wasn't the people person of this group. "Our talk can hold until later, Isaac," she replied without looking at him. "You seem like a capable man who knows how to survive, and I would hate to lose you to the Shadows, so i suggest you listen to Annie Willows over there," she finished saying, pointing to the young lady.


@Delayinder

Isaac nodded once. It made sense --he had heavy gear, training, and a ton of experience. She may not know the latter, but he was covered in now drying blood. When his attention was redirected to the girl whose name he now knew to be Annie, he waited silently. Maybe he'd finally get some answers, or at the very least a plan of action.


Isaac never had been one for sitting patiently and waiting to die.

The women frowned the man offered something that had no idea about, but then the girl offered dog food, and she knew Annie would take dog food, and she hated it.
"Then you are both welcome to come inside." Answered the German women as the gates opened, and let the two strangers inside. The gates closed just as quickly as they opened.

Lia was relieved. She rushed into the gates with her dog as fast as she could. "Thank you so much! Ugh, it's been hell out there. I was really hoping this would be some kind of sanctuary, or at least a camp. Do you really want these cans of dog food? I mean, they're really all I have for my companion," she said with a frown, gesturing to the black, panting dog beside her.

The Doctor was more than pleased at Doc's words. He grabbed his hand and shook vigorously. "Splendid! I will say I'm not a man of violence myself." He took out his sonic screwdriver once more.

"Screwdriver. I fix things, not maim them. Haven't laid my hand on a gun in years, don't plan to," he said, his expression serious.


He then heard Annie speak and glanced to her. "I did not mean to steal attention or shout, but I am not found of explaining something more then once when I have the opportunity to tell everyone now." Annie's lips were curled in a upside C, she really hated shouting.


"Ah, well then grace us with your words, Annie Willow."

 

[SuperChocoMilk]

Doctor Brown walked inside the gates as they suddenly opened. Thank god that this woman had the dog food! "Thank you for letting us in, very kind of you. Do you have any cars that happens to go over 88 miles per hour?"

Dany stood still and looked at the rest.


The gentleman, the blonde haired boy, the woman with her hair of two colors, and the others she already met were all talking to eachother.


Even the girl who called herself a leader was busy talking to others.


Daenerys had never truly been "just one of the people" and it was hard for her to get used to this.


She was standing among peasants, some ill-mannered, and none of them recognized her for the Khaleesi she was.

our parents split up when we were baby's and moved across the entire world to be apart, so we were lucky to find one another.

"Thank you for letting us in, very kind of you. Do you have any cars that happens to go over 88 miles per hour?"


The German women raised an eyebrow,


"Yes, we do. Only people with Annie's permission may drive one." The women looked to Lia, and took the can of dog food,


"This will do. I hate this stuff." The women gave a slight smile, Lia and returned to the building to store the food.

(EVERYONE. I am writing the mid-round update, so Annie's story will also be in there. I wont be replying until im done.)

 

[Ryu Keiko]

Ryu walked out of a small home, carrying a small bag of things as he looked around, making sure the cost was clear. He had been looting, of course, but then again who wouldn't be at this time. He needed the supplies, or he would die out here. His green eyes scanned the area as he shifted his backpack to his shoulder, and began running off into the distance, towards town. Back to the camp grounds." he thought to himself.


I guess we should give this guy a back story huh? Well this is Ryu Keiko, and well...he is a loner. He has always been alone, never had many friends, and his family wasn't....too accepting of him, but that never stopped him from moving forward. When all the chaos began, Ryu easily slipped away, and knew how the loner life would be, but he didn't care. He never bothered to even try and find other people. Why would anyone want to be around him anyway? He would probably just slow them down honestly. At least that's what he thought anyway.

So, Doc Brown would have to get the trust of the woman named Annie. He nodded his head, and then looked around. "Where is this Annie?" He asked, then turned to the other woman. "I never got your name by the way."

"Hah, my dog, Renegade, won't appreciate this, but I guess if it's for the sake of being allowed in here, it will be worth it." Lia walked along, laughing as Renegade whined at the loss of his food. "Don't worry, you can eat later." She listened to the German woman speak, agreeing with Doc Brown. "I'd like to see this Annie too." She glanced to Doc Brown. "You can all me Lia. This scamp at my side is Renegade," she said, gesturing to the dog. "I never got your name either. What's your name?"

 

[Xibilation]

"Oh. My. God. Regina, that's so fetch!"


Regina George strutted through town, her heels clacking on the pavement. They were pale pink- matching her mini skirt and jacket. She had a white tank top on underneath that.


It was Wednesday.


Regina rolled her eyes, her fingernail tapping on her pink iPhone. "Gretchen, I've, like, told you this so, many times, so you, like, have got to stop trying to make fetch happen. But," Regina looked down at her fingernails, stopping her strut in front of a bookstore. "I kay ar," she fake squealed into the phone. Inside, she was, like, totally pissed. She had to ask this freaky voodoo lady to give her mom this, like, blessing or whatever. Regina forgot why, something about fūcking her boss, but it explained why Regina was feeling a little high on the bitchometer.


"Mhm. Yeah. Totally. Well," Regina grabbed the door handle to the bookstore. "I've gee tee gee, love ya Gretchy, bye."


As Regina walked inside, she became more confused. There were bookshelves wall to wall in the bookstore, but no voodoo lady. Where the eff was she? She huffed and stopped in front of a bookshelf containing sexy covers. What was this, book porn? Regina picked up a book with naked people making out on the cover and examined it. Her fingers played with the edge of her skirt.


"Mizz?"


Regina turned around, surprised, and got greeted with the sight of a middle aged, 5 foot tall, white woman, dressed in the worst fashion statement Regina was ever cursed to look at. A long, purple, orange, and green skirt, a matching top with a completely different pattern- Regina wanted to puke. The brunette looked up at Regina's bleached blondeness and experienced similar feelings.


"Oh, um, hi there, do you do, like, the magic stuff? I-"


"Yes, yes, come."


Regina gave the woman her, "dubbleyou tee eff," look, pulling her wrist out of the woman's grasp, fixing her dangles, and following the woman to her office.


Of course, it was the typical voodoo office, with cheap, mystic decorations, black and purple swirls covering the walls. Regina could almost laugh as she saw the price tag on the "crystal" ball. Regina looked down at a wooden chair and wiped any germs off with her hand, sniffled a bit, and sat down.


"So, my mom wants you to-"


"I zee dark zings in your future," the woman recited, her voice getting deeper. "Zone of it zoo great." Her voice got deeper, starting to sound morphed, like a bunch of voices were speaking at the same time as her own. "Zadows will creep from ze corner, chilling zyour toes and consuming zou completely." Regina started to get up, freaked out. The orb on the table was rattling, and it glowed a deep purple. Regina jumped up, ready to leave. There was a drumming sound from the corner, the whole room rattling.


Before her heels could touch the floor, Regina saw a flash of white, and everything went black.


~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~


Regina fell on the ground with a thud. The ground was dirty, and it ruined her outfit. She scrambled up, heart pounding and face flushed. People were in conversation all around her, and they all looked like freaks.


"WHAT JUST FUCKING HAPPENED???

Doc Brown peered at Lia. "My name is Doctor Emmet Brown. I used to have a dog too, Einstein. Not too sure where he is now. It's very nice to meet you." Doc said, extending a hand for a handshake.


(Gonna be gone for an hour or so, I forgot I have to go to the dentist today. Hooray.)

 

[SirDerpingtonIV]

Octavian sat there, in the back of the crowd, saying nothing. He wasn't listening to anyone, just merely lost in his own thoughts at the moment.

 

[Field Marshall]

Ed thought just standing around up here was a waste of time so he went he grabbed his spear and went downstairs to take another nap. But this time he made a sign that says place request on sign.

 

[Spiders]

Jack wandered through the crowd of people, glad that he had managed to enter unhindered. He presumed this was an attempt to group up and arm survivors. Trying to recreate civilisation. It seemed to be working too, there were a lot of people here. Some of them looked rather strange, out of place. Quite a diverse group the beacon had attracted. Jack just hoped they were all good at fighting, can't have any dead weight.

 

[Ryu Keiko]

Ryu finally began to slow down from running from his destination, seeing a large group of people ahead. He stood there, not knowing what to do. Crap... What do I do? He thought to himself. What if they are a group of killers, killing others so they could survive?! Ryu's mind was racing with possibilities. Maybe if he was lucky, none of them would notice him, though he didn't think about his bright green eyes being able to give him away, even in the dark.

 

[Klutzy Ninja Kitty]

Doc Brown peered at Lia. "My name is Doctor Emmet Brown. I used to have a dog too, Einstein. Not too sure where he is now. It's very nice to meet you." Doc said, extending a hand for a handshake.

@SuperChocoMilk (Okay, no worries!)


"Good to meet you, Doc Brown," Lia replied, shaking his hand when he offered a hand shake. "Any dog person is a friend of mine." She paused, thinking for a moment. "Say, you're a doctor? Are you just a medical doctor, or a man who could possibly help research a cure for this shadow virus?" she asked. She hoped it was the latter. Lia hated the shadows, running for her life, and most importantly she hated being outside and getting sunburned all the time!

 

[Jeremiah]

Jinx sat on the floor, in a corner, alone, polishing Pow-Pow's bunny ears and trio of barrels pretty furiously. She wanted to make sure there were no imperfections on her favourite weapon. It's not like there was much else going on right?

*While asleep I end up rolling back downstairs with a loud snore. It's quite obnoxious as I stop in front of Jinx*

 

[Ryu Keiko]

Ryu sighed as he tried to think of possibilities of what should be done. Maybe I should just walk up and introduce myself, like a normal person! Ya klutz! Ryu thought. He sighed and finally came to the conclusion to just walk up to them. He began walking towards the group, wondering what the hell he would even say. Man...I hate trying to be social, but there is no way around them. Maybe I could just...fake my way through them?

Mid-Round Update:



​

"Well well...." calmly spoke a group of 15 men, they all wore bloody clothing, and held seven different types of melee weapons. They approached the back end of the camp, tress blocked the view from the gate, and the men smiled. Only two guards stood watch, and one of the men ran out in view, and shot fireballs into the chest's of the guards, killing them as soon as they seen him. They fell backwards, off the metal platform and into the grass, fracturing their skulls if they weren't already dead. The man smiled, and made his way to the fence, gentle placing a small sliver box in the middle, he pressed a small button on top, and a low ringing ding! could be heard. The man had a smile that looked to of the devil's and he returned to the group of men he left back in the tress.


"Did you do it?" eagerly asked one, his small exposing broken teeth, and black gums.


"Yeah, the bomb will exposed in 30 minutes, it will be dark by then, and the shadows will come running." Answered the bomb planter, and with his words, they left, returning to wherever they came from. The sun was setting, and night would surely come soon, and not even this camp was ready for it.


Annie frowned, and started the tragic story.


"It started two years ago," sated Annie, her gaze falling to the floor.


"Me and Ellis were 12 when this started, at first it was just weird attacks, and people getting hurt, then, then, it turned to raids and orders from the government, stay inside your homes they said, only, that didn't work. They fell in a matter of days, and shortly after clans and enclaves of survivors formed, creating safe heavens, only, even they weren't prepared for the meaning of survival. Friends betrayed one another, riots inside camps rose, sickness swept across from one survivor to another, it was chaos." Annie stopped for a monument, her eyes were filling with tears, and her stomach felt as if there was 18 knots tied in it.


"It took me a year to find my twin brother Ellis, our parents split up when we were baby's and moved across the entire world to be apart, so we were lucky to find one another, and when we reconnected, we survived another year. After realization of my brother's....condition, we formed a heaven for survivors. That was merely four mouths ago, and now, all of you are here, and we can make this a safer-"


BOOM!





A loud explosion shot through the silent dark blue air, "Oh my gods," Annie spun around, looking to the back of the grocery store, and seeing the small poof of smoke, it was near the middle of the chain-link fence, and when it cleared, a large hole sat in it. Annie darted towards the edge of the store's rooftop, looking from above at the hole. Two guards lied dead at the far right end of the fence, and laying on there back, large 3rd degree burnt tissue on there chest. It was two late, hundreds of Shadow's stood around the gate, half of them staring up at Annie with uneasy red eyes. Little light was given outside the building, Annie could barley see the amount of Shadow's pouring in, 'frothy? seven?....' mentally counted Annie, her eyes darting between the barely viable Shadow's. Turning Annie ran to the other side of the store's rooftop, Viewing the front of the store she could see survivors were still outside, picking up her megaphone Annie clicked the button, and shouted into it.


"Everyone!!!! To the rooftop! We have infected inside the camp! I repeat infected are inside the camp! You must make it to the rooftop!" and that's when the first survivor died, Sarah turned to see a small female child, she was wearing a nightgown, and smiling wider then gluttony with food. The Shadow jumped, faster then Sarah could of seen, and it dug its teeth into her neck, ripping flesh from her as she screamed in agony. The Shadow's swallowed the meat with not a signal bite, and took another chuck from Sarah's cheek, and that's when Annie moved back, speaking into the megaphone.


Option 1, "We defend against the infected until dawn! If we mange no causalities, which is a low possibility, they will not return till the treat of us is reduced."


Option 2, "We try to fight our way from the camp! and we travel far to the coastal city, and travel across Poseidon's sea to Engline. This is also a low possibility of no causalities"


Option 3, "We can signal help to a nearby survivor camp! I do not know these people, or even if they will answer our call, but its a shot."


(Please make sure to vote!

 

[Xibilation]

Regina stood in the middle of the group of survivors, just done with her bítch fit.


Nobody noticed her.


She saw someone walking up to the group, and huffed, confronting them.


"Excuse me, but where the fuck am I, and what the fuck is going on?" She tried to brush away the dirt from her pink outfit. Her normally perfect blonde hair was slightly tangled, but it wasnt noticeable.

 

[La Muerte]

Adain sat back down and pulled out his dugout and filled his one hit, lighting it and taking a long drag and filling the one hit again, the hash weak than it was last week but oh well. "Anyone know any good jokes, or stories?"

 

[Ryu Keiko]

Regina stood in the middle of the group of survivors, just done with her bítch fit.

Ryu walked up to the group and saw a girl in a pink outfit and blinked. "That's something...I would love to know as well." he said to her as he stood there, looking around before he heard the announcement over some intercom or something. .....WHAT?! his mind began to race. This is what I get for coming towards this group instead of running!

 

[Jeremiah]

*While asleep I end up rolling back downstairs with a loud snore. It's quite obnoxious as I stop in front of Jinx*

She perked up seeing the boy roll in front of her, taking out Zapper and lightly knocking him on the head with it.


"Hey, wakey-wakey lazy bones!"
