first call - backdated three hours before dawn

May 14, 2011 13:50

[ In the depths of the Darkness, gunshots echoed through the night. A young voice calls out, feminine but blunted by life’s gravity, spilling out swears as easily as her rifle ejects empty shells. ]

Francis! Louis!

[ A screech filters through, something inhuman - or maybe it once was human - before a wet schunk splatters to the ground, like maybe a ( Read more... )

Are you all right my dear lady?! Might I perhaps be of some assistance to you? I'm quite well versed in using the sword, and I've fought many of these monsters before, if you like I could try to escort you someplace safe!

[ what ]

Um.

[ That's a talking skeleton. ]

I got to a safe house. I think it's a safe house. But I'm good.

Oh, well that's good. I was rather worried from the sound of all the gunfire. Ah, where are my manners? Allow me to introduce myself my dear lady, my name is Brooke, and I'm the bard of the straw hat pirates. It's a pleasure to meet you! Might I please see your panties? Yohohoho!

[ Where's Francis when you need him?

At least this . . . Broke guy, whatever he is, is acting nice. But to answer his question: ]

No.

Do you need assistance?

[ No, she asked where her friends are. She's pretty sure she made that clear.
However, there are other things that are vying for her attention. ]

I'm good for now.

What are those things I just killed?

I cannot identify their precise species. You'll be safe indoors, if you've not yet made it inside or to a shelter.

[ A sigh. ]

No, see, you didn't answered my question. I shoot down zombies. Those aren't zombies I just blew away.

What are those things? I'm not asking every single detail. [ For now. ]

What're you doing outside this late? It's way too dangerous out there by yourself!

[ Okay, squirt. Squinty glare is a go. ]

I didn't ask to be here! And since we're on the topic, how is it that I was sailing a boat in the daytime suddenly find myself a neighborhood that's right out a bad horror movie?

Wait a sec-

[He takes a moment. If she's not aware of where she is, then that means...]

Did you just get here?

[Sarina has a bit of a sheepish look, as she starts a video feed.]

Well -- hahaha -- I guess I don't have to warn you about the Darkness monsters, at least.

[video] leading3men May 14 2011, 22:27:25 UTC
Darkness monsters. Really? That's what they call them? And when they show up?

[ They almost look like the mutated zombies - but she's pretty sure these things are a different deal entirely. A monster virus, maybe? ]

Well, that's kind of the general term; there's different names for each of the different types of monsters too. Heeheehee -- they only show up at night time though. During the day, it's relatively peaceful.

[And less fun. If she weren't on break at work, she'd be out there fighting them all.]

Seriously?

That . . . doesn't sound too bad. [ Compared to the zombies that are always active, twenty-four seven, five days a week, no vacation time. ] How are people holding up with that? Major pest control?

You know, it's not fair when people slip past the scientists. [Kimihiko sounds very amused.]

I'm not sure what a MySpace is, but if I see your friends, I'll let you know.

[ Highly unlikely, as she didn't even give out a description. ]

What scientists?

[ Wait. Oh god, what if she passes the virus to everyone? She didn't even thought of that. She really needs to get out of this place. ]

[You never know. Most people tend to introduce themselves, and there's at least one Francis on the Network already.]

The ones at the baseball diamond, where you arrived. Usually they hold people and interrogate them, I gather. You must have slipped past them in the dark and not been noticed.

[ Well, if this Francis isn't a six-foot-biker who hates everything, he ain't hers. ]

Why are they interrogating people? Are they sick?

[ If that's the case, good thing she gave them the slip. If they realized she's a Carrier, they might have taken her behind a storage shed and killed her. ]
