No IC needed. No approval needed. You all play one character. Choose your actions wisely.
For any questions, put them in the OOC I will answer all of them.

Almost 100 years after the world has suffered from a nuclear war, world war III has killed everything that we knew.
Humans had been fleeing into space to live there in safety, since earth was not safe anymore. The nuclear war has caused the whole world to be radioactive.

The humans that had lead what was left of the human race to the space suspected them to have 200 years until they could finally go back to the ground.

But something changed. Now 97 years later an unexpected event forces the humans to think quick and act harsh.

Is earth survivable?


You sit in a grey room. The floor is grey, the walls are grey, everything is just grey. There is no window. A small lamp shines an unhealthy yellow light onto your head. You lean against the cold wall.

Loud noises were heard from outside, screaming and yelling. You stand up the same second the metal door to your room bursts open and two guards step inside. "What's going on?", you ask them. But they don't respond. They grab your arms harshly and pin them to your back. It hurts you. "Let me go! I didn't do anything!"

"Be quiet, kid", one of them states. "It won't do you any good."

You struggle against them while you run every of your actions through your mind, but you can't find any cause for the guards to take you away.

....... Everything is a blurr. Your eyes try to focus but it's hard for them. You can make something out in front of your face, it seems like metal, but that doesn't give away anything. You close your eyes and try to open them again after a few seconds and deep breaths. Your sight is clearer now. Your head is spinning, but you can think straight. Last thing you know is being dragged away by the guards. Your vision gets more clean with every second. You can make out a board with a lot of buttons and levels.

Another breath in and out... and you can see your surroundings clearly. Your head is still a little fuzzy but you can make out where you are. You are sitting in a seat, strapped to it for safety. In front of you is the board you already made out. Around you are some more buttons and strange looking lamps. And you can see a whole lot of dark space.

You are sitting in a minimal space station on the seat in front of the control board and you are looking out the round window to the clear dark space. First you are confused, second thing you are panicked. You look around, but you are alone as far as you can see. The door behind you is closed, it seems to be a simple slide-to-open metal door. The lamp next to the door is green. Maybe I can get through it?

You take in all the new information and wonder what has happened and why you are here, all alone.
The next thing you notice is a little stick lying on the board that says Play Me.


Take your next step.

I reach for the Stick that says "Play Me" and give it a good tug.

I feel like the green light means it is safe to go through the door way so I open the door.

You take the stick with the words Play Me and look at it. Seems like you could play it by plugging it in somewhere. Mhh ...

I feel like the green light means it is safe to go through the door way so I open the door.


With the stick in your hands you look at the green light by the door. It seems save to open it. You unstrap yourself from the seat and get up. Two steps and you're at the door, you press a big button that you know will open the door. The door slides open easily with almost no sound. Behind the door you see a very small corridor. Very alike to those on the survival ship you've lived in all your life. There are three doors that lead away from the corridor, all closed. There's no lamp so you don't know if you can open them. Hm give it a try?

Take your next step.

I search the previous room and this one for a place to plug in the stick to see if it explains anything.

You decide to go back to the control center to try the stick first. After searching the board for a fitting entrance for the stick you plug it in. On a screen on the upper side of the board a black screen with a buffering sign appears. Only a second later you see the face of the counselor of your home place. He speaks. "Welcome to your newest journey. You have been chosen - with a few others - to give the great chance to live on the ground. We are sending you one by one down to earth. You have enough supplies to last 3 days on the ship. Until then you must have reached the ground. On your arm there's a metal wristband that shows us how your body reacts to the new environment. Be safe and may we meet again.

You can't believe what you've heard. They send you to the ground? Isn't it radioactive?! From your knowledge they shouldn't send down humans for another 100 years or so. You are scared. But mostly angry. Who has the right to send you into death just like that!? And with that you begin to hate the counselor and everything he stands for.

Not wanting to risk being put into a dangerous situation without knowledge. I decide to look for a area inside the ship to play the stick in my hand.

@KahleenCuthald (ohkay thank you for correcting me, and letting me know so nicely.)

I decide to go:
Eeny, meeny, miny, mo
Catch a tiger by the toe
If he hollers, let him go
Eeny meeny miny mo

While pointing my fingers at the doors as I say the words, when I say Mo my finger lands on the middle door. I decide that is the route I'm taking

Your finger points to the middle door out of three choices. You think about what the stick has revealed. Earth...

Slowly and carefully you make your way to the middle door and try to open it. It opens, swinging to the inside of the room. As expected everything is metal. You peek inside and make out a small bed, a table and a chair and a drawer next to the bed. On the drawer stands nothing. You decide to open the drawer just to be sure it's empty. But it's not. Inside you find a bunch of clothes. As you look loser you can see they're your clothes.





In the drawer:
1 pair of undies
1 pair of brown high boots
1 white t-shirt
2 pair of socks, both white
1 brown leather jacket
1 jeans
1 hoodie in dark blue

You get out of the bright orange jumpsuit and put on your clothes. You feel a lot better already being in your own clothes. Then you decide to search the table and under the bed hoping to find some more things useful. But you need to accept there are none. The table is clear and has no drawers or doors. Under the bed is nothing. Just a tiny bit dust. The rest of the room seems to be empty.

Take your next step.

I check the door that was on my left when I first saw the three doors and try opening it. If it doesn't work I try the right door.

The door opens easily. You step inside and find yourself in a very small room. There is a box on the floor, you open it.

Inside the box:
3 potions of food in seperate smaller boxes - the boxes read Day 1, Day 2 and Day 3
3 big bottles with water


You look around and make out a backpack. You obviously look what's inside.

Backpack:
1 small tent
1 box with tools
(1 hammer, 2 knives, 1 flashlight with battery, 1 box of nails, 1 pair of thick work-gloves, 1 big scissor, 1 cutter-knife, 1 lighter, 5 boxes of matches)
1 huge rope
3 smaller ropes
1 smaller bottle /empty
1 hand-saw
1 rolled up warm blanket
3 empty boxes waterproof


Furthermore you see a first aid kit in the corner.

I don't know what to expect, so I better get as much as I can and prepare. I think to myself.

I fetch my orange jumpsuit, put it on over my clothes for extra warmth, and then return to the room I just left. I put my thick work gloves on. I pull out my hammer in case any of the, 'others' want my stuff by force.

Are the others here on this ship or other ships? Will I surivive off my homeship? I think as I cautiously walk to the last unopen door with hammer in hand.

As the last door opens you can see it's a claustrophobic-small room with a toilet and a sink. It's just a bath, if you wanna call it that. There's no shower.




On you:

1 Hammer

Clothes:
1 orange jumpsuit
1 pair of undies
1 pair of brown high boots
1 white t-shirt
1 pair of socks, both white
1 brown leather jacket
1 jeans
1 hoodie in dark blue
1 pair of thick work gloves

I sigh with relief, close the door if able, and go through the tedious process of undressing enough to go potty.

I make a mental note to retrieve the first aid kit and put it in my backpack, putting on my backpack, then digging out my small bottle and filling it with shower water before I head back to the room I woke up in.

For now, I look for toilette paper to use and then take.

You get back to the room you woke up in. With further investigation, you see that this control board is easy to use. It's one of those you know. You could try to get to earth... But it'd be a bumpy ride and nobody knows how the collide with earth would end. That being said, you don't know where on earth you would land - you could easily land in the ocean! And you have no idea if earth's air is gonna kill you. After all the earth should still be radioactive, if what they have taught you is right.
