| Legendary Sage Join Date: Apr 2009 Location: England, near London | Marc grabbed the man's wrists, almost gagging as the stench of decay entered his nostrils, the man was smaller than he was but heck was he strong. Falling back into the club, Marc monkey flipped the guy over him, the man crashed into a couple of stool's and lay still, Marc thought he had ended the fight there and then, boy was he wrong. A concerned onlooker made his way towards the unmoving man, Marc watched as he approached, not believing what had happened, he was too late in calling out a warning. As the man bent over to check on the other, the dirty guy literally pounced, he was flailing at the man wildly, Marc heard a snapping sound and the concerned guy fell back, holding an arm that was twisted at a very unnatural angle. Pushing himself to his feet Marc ran at the dirty guy, he didnt want his shift to be ruined by some looney trying to prove how tough he was, shouting out a warning as he barrelled into the pyscho, Marc bulldozed him into one of the pillars. Jumping back after feeling the man collapse under his weight Marc turned to see if the guy with the broken arm was alright, he was shocked to find out that the man he had just slammed into the wall was still standing, not only standing but actually coming towards Marc as if he was a glutton for punishment. "What the hell kinda' crazy are you?" Marc clenched his right hand into a fist and slugged the guy in the face, the guy's head snapped back but turned straight away to face Marc, a couple of teeth fell to the ground but neither man seemed to notice, and the crazy guy seemed not to care. With a howl that sounded like something from a horror movie, the crazy guy rushed at Marc, not giving him the chance for another punch, Marc moved backwards to try and absorb some of the force with which the man would hit him with, as he did so his foot caught on one of the bar stools, sending him sprawling backwards. As he fell his last thoughts were of his wife and son, he guessed he would be seeing them sooner than he thought, he hit the ground, hard, feeling the wind leave his lungs with enough force to leave him stunned, the attacker however, didnt pursue him, instead the crazy guy ran straight out the door. "What the hell was that all about?" Marc gathered his thoughts, as well as several gulps of air, standing up he saw a crowd had gathered, shrugging his shoulders, Marc checked on the guy with the broken arm, deciding that he had better get to a hospital, he turned back to the bar. "Ring for an ambulance would ya!, and were's my dammed beer" It was only halfway through his shift, and already Marc was sick of the place. |

| Krispy Kreme>Dunkin Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: Maryland,America | The air was very electric, and though it wasn't storming yet, Riley knew that it would be a whopper. He was leaning over the open hood of one of his clients cars, a 1969 Chevy Camaro, a beautiful car. Oil was all over his hands and his blue work jumpsuit was muted and stained with old and new oil. It was part of the job and Riley loved it. Ted, his coworker was walking out the door right now, wiping his hands clean with a stained rag, "see ya Riley, don't stay too late man, remember me and the misses got out wedding tomorrow." Riley smiled "and how the hell are you supposed to pay for that with a shit paying job like this?" he joked. For an odd reason Ted didn't laugh and that made the situation really awkward. ted turned away and walked out of the garage. "later Riley" what the hells wrong with him? riley went back to fixing the vehicle. weird night. Riley decided that now it was time to close shop, he looked to his wristwatch on his left arm. "damn it's late." Riley turned behind him, and picked up a somewhat clean rag from a cluttered rack on the wall. he wiped his hands as clean as he could and then carefully lowered the hood of the camaro. "I'll fix you tomorrow girl." he said. It was raining lightly, when he closed shophehe this'll get my suit clean There was no parking lot, his car was parked at the side and Riley walked over, his boots making crunchy sides on the loose gravel. His car, strangely enough, was a piece of shit. 1997 grand Prix, well the car itself was fine but Riley always thought that it would be fitting for a mechanic to have a sweet ride, oh well. He reached into his right pocket for his car keys, "oh no, ted took mine. then...where is he? and where's his car" riley looked around frantically searching for an answer to either. |

| Glad we had this talk. Join Date: Apr 2009 | The bar is quiet at the early hour, but I don’t mind. I’m just havin’ ‘one for the road’, and then never have to see this dump again. A guy and his dog sit at the other end of the bar, wading through a mess of papers. The guy, obviously, not the dog. A smile traces my lips as I gaze around the small tavern, my hand holding my glass loosely. The last time I was in this joint, I had just graduated highschool, and the garage band I played with was doing a show. A long time ago, almost a lifetime ago, it would seem. I snag my lighter from my pocket, flipping it open and pressing the flame to the tip of the cigarette that rests between my lips. My hand makes the return trip as I draw my first drag, replacing the lighter in my leather jacket. My one suit is already neatly folded in the saddle bags of my bike parked out front. I kick my drink back, suddenly ready to be on the road. I could have stayed in my mom’s apartment, or in the little hotel down the street, but I need to leave this place; the good memories are far outweighed by the bad. The crumpled dollar bill I pull toss as a tip bounces on the stained and scarred bar, coming to rest against the ash tray that holds the remains of my last cigarette. “What a Shame” by Shinedown comes over the out-dated speakers as I walk to the door. It sets the mood perfectly as I adjust my jacket and fish my key from my pocket. The man and his dog are getting ready to leave as well. In a few hours, the regulars will show, taking their seats and ordering their beers, same as every other night. It’s not for me… |

| Krispy Kreme>Dunkin Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: Maryland,America | Riley went around to the other side of his business's garage, nothing. No car and no Ted, there was nothing but an overflowing dumpster and a rotten smell . hell, he's probably at the bar, i should get a few brews before I head home. Riley started back to the road. A single, yellow streetlight was the only light source, and Riley's eyes strained to see the vague shapes of houses and parked cars. He walked down the double-lane road and thought of his girlfriend that he had left back in Maryland to go to college, ha, college. Riley's thoughts trailed off, when he dropped out, got this job, he almost forgot about home. home. The bright blue neon light that said "BAR" was in front of him now, and he walked in. A light bell dinged as he entered. A man he didn't recodnize went past him as he entered. The place smelled very thick, and the air was almost tangible. Smoke from cigarettes and cigars was heavy in the air and there was the usual ruckus you would expect at a bar. Riley sat himself down at the bar counter, he place himelf on a small leather bar stool that was ripped at the seems. "hey, give me an ice-cold bud will ya Fred?" |

| Myrkridia Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Tasmania | "Shit Mouse, you got my back? Lets get home. Jesus Christ." The street wasn't swarming, but in every alley he could see shadows twisting and contorting with mishappen shapes. Slight groans punctuated regularly with shrill screams. he stepped over a pool of blood that was turning the cracks in the pavement into canals. Elliot walked home hurriedly, clutching his coat tightly around him, faithful Mouse at his heel. Things were getting worse. From what he observed these things were, slow, stupid and relatively easy to avoid. He felt a hand clamp down on his shoulder and a guttural groan. Shit he thought they're quiet too He spun and sunk his fists into the thing's guts, it sunk in deeply. May as well have punched a wall he thought wryly. Mouse was investigating something on the other side of the road Elliot realized, that why he hadn't warned him. But Mouse's head swung up as soon as he heard his masters distress. Elliot only had to hold it off for a few more seconds. He grabbed its collar trying to keep its head away from him. Its mouth inexplorably moved closer, viscuous drool and the sickly sweet smell of old blood assailed him. Elliot's throat felt awfully exposed, but he couldn't move without releasing the zombie. An inch now, an inch away from his throat, the struggle felt like it had lasted minutes, when in reality it had lasted no more than a few seconds. Mouse came. And not a second too soon. The Zombie jerked as Mouse sunk his teeth into its thigh. The dog flexed his enormous muscles, rippling under his short grey fur, and threw the zombie bodily to the ground, tearing away a massive hunk of flesh. The zombie immediatly struggled to rise again. The good old days, the New York days, came flooding back to both Elliot and Mouse. They worked perfectly together in this darkened street, this was their environment, their world. Elliot stomped on both its arms, breaking them, Mouse ripped out its throat in a bloody spray of teeth, sinew and cartilage. "Good dog." Elliot murmured as they stepped away scratching Mouse's ears, now a mix of red and grey. It didn't stop moving. Arms flopping about grotesquly and its mauled leg kicking it continued to try and regain its feet. "Now that is interesting." Elliot said. "its been awhile since i did a curb-stomp Mouse. Guess you never forget how." Elliot raised his foot. "Wish i could sometimes." A spray of brains and skull spread like a dropped melon across the sidewalk as Elliot brought his boot down. "Lets go boy, its going to be a long night." Elliot and Mouse stuck to shadows, Elliot's trenchcoat swishing lightly in the night air. They reached his house to find it untouched, though shapes were shuffling around it. "We run for it Mouse, stick with me. We get inside, i'll get you some food and my gun." They ran, pushing the zombies sprawling. Elliot threw open the front door, Mouse ran through and he slammed it behind him. A minute later and Mouse had his snout down in a bowl of food (last night's steak) and Elliot was cleaning his gun and checking his ammo. It was the gun that had become his signature back in New York, an old friend of his. A .357 Magnum Revolver. He called her Lola. Back in the day she had been a queen among pistols, Elliots most faithful friend (Mouse Exluded of course.) "Time for us to get reaquainted my love." He loaded six of her little lead friends into the chambers. Lets go Mouse, see what we can find out. He didn't shut the door behind him. |

| Krispy Kreme>Dunkin Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: Maryland,America | Riley had had his third beer and he was feeling a bit tipsy. "hey, you know what?I'm going home, yeah that's what'll do ya." His speach slurred a bit since he hadn't had a drink in a while his tolerance was lower than usual. The bar was almost empty, except for a few guys playing a pick up game of poker in the back. "see you Fred!" he yelled as he stumbled out of the door. *ding!* It was pitch black outside. Riley thought he could hear screams in the distance, maybe even a gunshot? "whoa thats...wierd." there was a small group of figures moving towards him, Riley could swear that one was Ted. "hey Ted! hey man let's get some drinks at the bar watcha say eh?" The figure said nothing, neither did the others. They were right in front of Riley. "hey do-." A skinny guy with a hood over his face reached for Riley and grabbed his jumpsuit. "hey get off me you prick!" Riley punched the guy in the face, but the man didn't react. Riley then shoved the guy as hard as he could. he wasn't to balanced because he flew back and hit three guys behind him. "oh sorry, sorry." Riley's buzz was wearing off. "hey man are you okay?" the four got up, with deep guttural growls they did. The guy who'd grabbed him no longer had his hood on and the streetlight shown on his face. "oh my god." the guys face was covered in blood, and his eyes... his eyes were milky white and wide-open, just staring at Riley. Riley was truly scared and turned to run, and tripped over a bump in the road, scraping his knee, "ow! dammit." pained, he still got up and ran for his life down the street. |

| Keeper of Peace. Join Date: Jun 2009 | Running full tilt in the direction of his home, Mark couldn't think of anything but his wife and unborn child. Coming within sight of his two story home he looks on in horror as a shuffling man corners his wife against their Hummers door. sinking his teeth into her cheek, he rips the flesh away. "No god dammit!" He wails in despair. Still running Mark losses his footing on loose debris and falls hard to the pavement. Looking back he witnesses the death of his wife and child as the man rips into her stomach. Mark gets to his feet and charges the beast, hot tears of anguish streaming down his face. "You motherfucker!" He screams in rage. Closing the distance Mark crouches low and leaps bringing his knee into the side of the zombies face. Continuing on it's head slams into the car and the skull cracks as a result of the massive impact. Steping back Mark lifts his boot and brings the heel down full force collapsing it's skull. "I'm sorry Trish..." Mark whispers hoarsely. No longer feeling rage Mark falls into a state of numbness. Not wanting to look at his disemboweled wife he walks into his house, up the stairs, and into his room. Putting in the combination to his gun safe Mark produces his grandfather's old M1 Garand and Colt M1911 handgun. Sliding the 1911 into his thigh holster and slinging the rifle over his shoulder Mark heads out. Making his way to the pawn shop down the street Mark notices mobs of people, he pays them no heed and moves on. Getting to his destination he finds it abandoned, he gets all the ammo he needs and leaves. "They will not get me..." He says ramming the eight round M1 clip home. |

| Krispy Kreme>Dunkin Join Date: Jun 2009 Location: Maryland,America | Riley has no idea where he is,was that a sign for Kiwi street, or Kilo?Damn I'm lost. Abruptly the cries of a woman are heard from over the tall wooden fence of a yard. He decides to check it out walking up to it and after some difficulty, and many splinters in his hands, sees a horrific scene. A dead and mutilated body of a woman, her stomach is torn open and...oh my fucking god is that a fetus? beside her lies a dead man with his head caved in. Riley's beer feels like it's coming up, but he shoves it down and he can taste his warm bitter vomit. Off in the distance, past the scene he sees a man walking determinedly away, with something in his arms. that guy has a gun...I'm following him He hops down from the fence. His Hands burning from the splinters and pressure. Puts aside the pain and runs around the fence to the man. "hey,HEY YOU!" |
