[IC] Supernova: Humanity's Extinction

[boomlover]

JACk/commcenter and cryoroom

When Jack entert the cryo room he was dispaointed to see no one there. "mabey is hould check the other cryoroom see if someone else has already woken up".
when he enterd the first cryoroom he was suprised to see a man lying on the floor who apeared to be in pain. a women who seemed to be just released from cryosleep and a women who proabably opend said cryopod.
the first thing that came out of his mouth was "uuuh hi".

Sasha || Cryo Room
Chaos was everywhere.
Screams of terror and pain.
A burning scenery with mangled bodies laid out everywhere.
Freedom to do as one pleases.
Hurt, hurt and Hurt again.
All the sudden everything stops and goes blank.
A certain face appears.

Sasha’s eyes opened as soon as the capsule opened and with the vision of that bastard's face fresh in her mind Sasha kicked before everything even cleared… and it landed on something as all the sudden there was something flying across the room.
blinking she could finally see clearly but as soon as she noticed who she had kicked Sasha wished she couldn’t.
"M-m... Morning... Sis...".
“Morning to you too my deplorable brother” the venom in her voice was clear.
“as much as I would like to take your head here and now it seems the government wishes to torture me more…. oh the irony of that” the mere thought of taking her brother’s life was near ecstasy yet being so close and unable to do so was painful.

“ah it seems my useless brothers habit of speaking off track is rubbing off on me…. disgusting” Sasha coughed and switched her venomous tone for a more military like one.

“how long have I been frozen?” Sasha asked realising there was another person there…. with the scent of blood and even still bloody… licked her lips slightly.

Anastasia

Anastasia breathed and breathed. They were getting close. Soon now. She'd have a friend again to talk to. It couldn't be soon enough. The countdown began. Anastasia walkes to the comms room.

"Jack and Sasha. Report to the docking bay right now. Grab your weapons and be ready."

Anastasia readied her weapon. She loaded the clip into it, and cocked it back. Twirling it back into the holster she readied herself. As the other two and the captain approached the ship landed. The door slowly opened and Anastasia unholstered her weapon.

Three

Two

One.

"Go go go! Get moving now!"

Anastasia yelled, starting to provide covee fire. The planet they had landed on was a desert. in what was once a great human city and a large military base was now nothing but havoc. Anastasia slid into cover, peeking over to fire again and again.

[boomlover]

the first thing that jack did was finding some cover and not to get shot. when that had workes out he began picking targets scanning the battlefield for anything explosive. his cybernetic eye quikly spotted a fuel canisters. after a few shotshe the canister exploded sending atleast 2 enemy,s flying.

after that he started moving up trying to flank the enemy however its was a mistake and he was soon being fired upon from all directions his cover getting smaller bye the minute.

"I NEED SOME HELP HERE !!"

[Sho Minazuki]

Valerius | Some planet

Amongst the sound of gunfire, explosions and lasers, Valerius simply strolled out from the ship, looked around as everyone scrambled to cover. He heard just a single moment of a round shrieking towards him and instinctively took a step to the side, letting it whiz by him. He kept walking until he reached Anastasia, occasionally stepping into cover whenever he spotted someone's sights primed on him, they seemed to be paying more attention to Anastasia and Jack though. He was pretty sure his sister was going to be on field, but he'd probably rather not see her... He didn't even have his blades drawn, he was just trying to look as little of a threat as possible. He slid behind the cover Anastasia was in and spotted Jack running around the side. He was exposed as he did so, so some of the enemy forces moved to stop his advance once they spotted him... There was no plan at all. They had too much fire power to simply overpower them. If Valerius could just get to their front door they were as good as dead though...

"You're not going to tell me you don't have a plan right? Or are you so eager to rescue your friend you forgot?", he snarked. He was a tad grumpy... There was no sugary food on the ship. He wanted to pent that somewhere. Maybe he can frenzy on these guys, but they were managing to keep a good and large no-mans-land between them and him...

[SwordfishKnight]

Anastasia

Anastasia ducked her head into cover next to Valerius. He was right next to her and all he had were some swords.

"You're not going to tell me you don't have a plan right? Or are you so eager to rescue your friend you forgot?"

Anastasia popped a blood vessel.

"Well gee, maybe if you grabbed a gun you could fucking shoot them! Goddamit take this one! Time for the last trick up my mechanical sleeve!"

Anastasia shoved the gun and ammo into Valerius' hands. Her right arm popped out two little side bumps, and started firing lasers from them.

"Move up move up!"

She jumped over the rubble and slid behind a busted wall. Firing the lasers again, she motioned the other three forward.

"Come on! Come on! It's clear! I'll cover!"

[Sho Minazuki]

Valerius | Some planet

"Huh? A gun? B-but wait you don't understa-", she was gone before he could explain he was absolutely useless with firearms. He can hardly hit a thing even within 3 feet of him. He really didn't get why, but he just physically could not use a firearm well... Well, at least he can throw it. Funnily enough, he can 'handle' them, just not use them, so he was able to load and arm them. Probably the only kind of weaponry he can use other than blades is... Explosives? He really only had to throw those. As Anastasia gave the all clear to advance, Valerius immediately drew one of his blades and darted through. He was fast, incredibly fast. As he swept past Anastasia he dropped the gun she gave him next to her with a note saying, "I'm godawful with guns. Keep it".

As they got closer, the cover was actually a little thicker, since they were getting closer to a more 'urban' location. He managed to catch two soldiers who were moving their position to keep their pressure up around the sides, slashing the first one in the back with his laser blade. Thing had a crossguard and everything, it was kind of fancy, even a broad blade, which was rare. The blue laser sword cut and burned through the soldier, killing him almost immediately, as he used his falling body as a means to leap above the second soldier, who is just now realizing Valerius' presence. He managed to leap over, doing a spin and slashing the barrel of the soldier's gun before landing behind and doing a rapid horizontal slash, all in a single motion.

These were only stragglers though as a consequence of him managing to advance faster than they could reposition. He immediately stepped into whatever cover he could find as the soldiers resumed their assault. He was going to need another chance to get close. Anastasia should've seen as he ran past. He was able to close distance with incredible speed, hopefully she would find him a chance to get into one of their key positions...

[boomlover]

JACK/SOME PLANET/ MILITARYBASE

"great" jack thought bullets wipping bye his facer. "just fucking great i just had to move up."[color=ed1c24][/color] and he had even forgotten his killcount. then he heard some lazer fire and the scream of Anastasia. "Move up!" the fire on him was diminishing. "alright time to start the killcount" he thought to himself and as he rose from his cover he was disapionted to see that the enemy was retreating.

he quickly found why as he saw valerius cutting them to tiny sushi bits "huh well that comes to show that swords aren,t entirely useless".
as he followed them he noticed that alot of the soldiers theyhad been kiling had small packs of cigarrets on them picking a few up. he read

FOR FREEDOM. "aah classic probaganda my favorite". he picked a few up and followed the rest of the team. after a few minuets they where in an urban area and he quickly took cover right beside anastasia. " so i dont wanna be an ass but the way where headed they will soon pull a pincer movement on us". he said while he shot a few soldiers who came to close.

"13 kills and counting he thought to himself".
" so mabey it would be a smart idea if you left me and one of the two using a sword to make sure we wont get attecked from behind. while you and the other sword guy go and save your lady friend ."
"also would you like a cigarret"? he said handing her one.
she ignored him running to a man and a catboy picking up the man and handing the catboy to valerius after that she ran back to the ship. jack followed her and safely made it into the ship

[itano123]

Sasha || the Battlefield

Learning it had been a hundred years and quick parts of what else happened had been a bit of a spin out but there was no time for the luxury of taking information in as it seemed she was needed on the battlefield to save a comrade.
She quickly looked for her weapons but found one of her rapiers needed maintenance that would take more time than she could spare.
“tch its to be expected with 100 years i guess” Sasha commented.
Sasha settled for one rapier and a pistol.

Running onto the battlefield slightly later than the others Sasha decided to use the idiots who drew attention and stay behind cover as much as possible while advancing. Though as she darted to another spot for cover an enemy appeared, before he could react Sasha gracefully darted to the man and stabbed him straight through the left kidney.
Pulling out blood gashed out and the enemy staggered back. The blood splattered on Sasha’s face and she licked her lips.
100 years.
100 years since she last felt this pleasure.
as soon as that realisation dawned on her Sasha couldn’t resist. She kicked the man in the spot she stabbed causing him to fall back in pain.
Then she slammed her boot down on his groin and twisted while putting more pressure on. The man screamed louder and louder, yes that was the sound she wanted to hear.
With the mans balls crushed she stabbed him through the heart.

Sasha noticed someone come to check the screams luckily she noticed in time and fired three times before stabbing the falling enemy in the heart to make sure.
“damn it seems I let myself get caught in the moment” she then darted for cover, hopefully others were drawing more attention like her damned brother so she wouldn’t have drawn too much attention.
If the Russian girl had a plan Sasha hoped she would execute it soon

[SwordfishKnight]

Anastasia

Anastasia fired a couple more times with her reacquired pistol, the idiot captain not accepting it. She popped out and fired the pistol, taking down all the enemies near her. She scanned the battlefield and looked around. Three guys left near what looked to be Asim, near him, tied up as well, was a small Furlyne. He was tied up as well, and didn't look too well. She slid over her cover again, checking the surroundings. Running up to him, she untied him and the small boy and grabbed them both and hoisted them to her shoulders. Starting a sprint, she started running back to the ship, outside the ruined city.

"Go go go!" She shouted barreling down the streets. "I got what we came here for, plus extra! Get back to the ship!"

Before she could reach Asim's hushed voice spoke up.

"No no no. Leave me here. Take this kid with you but leave me. Get out of here now."

"Nonsense!" Anastasia shouted, carrying him. "We aren't abandoning you here!"

She handed the Furlyne off to Valerius. "Take him with you and get back on the ship. I'll hold them off and jump on as well." She turned around and started firing on the rest of the mob approaching from the buildings. Her pistol rocked to and fro, the rapid shots bouncing it around. After hearing the click of the gun, she swung it back in the holster. "Time to get on." She jumped onto the loading bay door, saluting and laughing at the mob below, firing at the ship.

beep.

beep.

beep.

beep.

Anastasia's blood turned to ice. That was coming from rather close. And it didn't sound good. Anastasia looked over, seeing the sad eyes on Asim's face. She turned her head downwards. He walked up to her and shoved an armband into her hands. It was one of his country's flag. He stood at the bay doors, and readied himself. Anastasia walked up. Reluctantly, her foot lifted and kicked Asim out of the ship. The last beep came, and Asim's body was nothing more than a fine mist. The pink and grey splattered her face, while she blankly stared on. She turned around.

"So. What now."

[boomlover]

jack answerd .

"hmm since we dont know what do right know how about we listen to the little catboy,s story after that go to a station and stock up on food."

"because i dont think any food might have survived unless it was frozen." and after that i dont realy know or care ."

"also does someone want to a ciggaret"?

[Sho Minazuki]

Valerius | Some planet

From across the cover, you can see a moving whirlwind of a laser blade as Valerius managed to get the chance to close what little distance there was between defining points of cover. There weren't many left. Jack had taken the ones skirmishing and Anastasia managed to soften up a particular route. Valerius cleaned up whatever was left with incredible speed and efficiency. It was insane to think a human could move this fast, but that's exactly what was happening. As he reached the target location, there were two people there. The one he saw on the comms who was Ana's friend, and a cat dude.

Anastasia was visibly heart-torn to be told to leave him here. Of course as he expected she refused that and told him to carry off the cat back to the ship. Valerius recognized that look in the man's eyes. Those were the eyes of someone who had resigned to their fate, eyes he saw fairly often even before his 'sleep'. In any case, no use brooding over that. He hauled the cat guy out of there and waited for Anastasia to return, which she did, with her friend. Turns out he had a bomb strapped to him too. Of course, he was let off the ship, and before impact the explosion occurred. It didn't look like the two had broken eye contact until the final moment either. Valerius simply turned away and then threw the cat onto the ship's seating arrangement in the loading bay.

"So what now", she said, turning to him as he was walking towards the exit.

"What now...? We get something to eat. I'm bloody starving", he responded. Before he left the loading bay though...

"I suggest you get some rest. Friends dying is a rough process", and with that he was out. Speaking of food... How are the supplies looking? One hundred years is guaranteed to mean there's nothing good left. Perishables and all that... Maybe they should make a stop at a town or something...?

[I-Am-X]

Alastair

"My, My. Is the fun over already?" Alastair came back into view with smile on his face while carrying a cloth in one hand. He was going to ask the one they came to save but alas he stopped himself when he looked at the woman's face. In all his experience, in all the books and comics he read, when humans had that expression on their faces, they'd rather be left alone. Things obviously went wrong. Instead, he handed Anatasia the towel and left her to her devices.

Anyways, it looks like they brought someone back with them. A Furlyne, hmm? What a treat, don't see too many of them too often. With a smile ever present, he walked over to the cat and handed him a cup of royal milk tea. "Here you go, something to help you relax. Granted, it's re-heated but still good nonetheless. Name is Alastair," he said with a bow. "I'd made something to eat but I doubt there's anything edible left. After all, it has been 100 years. Maybe a raid is in order?" he chuckled thinking he made some kind of joke. Looking around, maybe he was mistaken.

[Amaterasu]

Everything was over. Nothing mattered to Kidd at this point. The other captive had somehow come in contact with someone before it was cut short by another beating from their captors. There was no way whomever the male human had contacted would miraculously appear and sweep them away from this situation now. Not to mention the bomb implanted within the body of the aforementioned male, which was ticking away even at the moment the Furlyne had these despairing thoughts. This was hopeless. The situation was already as grim as it can get, his life just had to end once again, this time in a literal sense, under a custody like he once was in years ago. But this time, his sentence was to be sent to the death row. Yet again accused for something he had not done. Spying? Just how would formerly being a mechanic at the military consider him to be a spy? But that didn't matter now, not anymore.

Kidd trembled and shivered quietly in fear while the other captive whispered meaningless words of encouragement to the boy, saying his friend will be on their way to the rescue and that at least the Furlyne would be saved. He kept his mouth shut towards the man, he didn't know how to respond as he seriously doubted that small light of hope would come through. It was only a matter of minutes before the final moment when there was a huge commotion at one side of the ruined city about a few bunch of insane soldiers of some sort taking down their men one by one like flies. They couldn't be. Could they? Were they the "friends" the man contacted with? Just before the Furlyne could ponder on that thought, the men who kept an eye on them were down on the ground, either dying or unconscious. Then a sight of a female human [?] with mechanical limbs. Before he could manage a reaction to how crazy that was and how this was too good to be true to be happening, he was carried off away from the scene.

Beep. Beep. Beep. BOOM. Eyes wide open at the scene before him, the Furlyne felt ill at the awful splash of blood and meat, barely held in the puking sensation by pressing his hand on his lips. Just when he thought he had calmed down a little from what had all happened, he was thrown to a seat. "OW! Hey, watch it! Is that how you treat all your rescued captives?!" On the spur of the moment, he yelled at the irresponsible rescuer, temporarily putting aside the grim moment before his lips curved downward in a frown and his gaze fell to the floor. A suggestion was given by one of the other rescuers for the Furlyne to speak but his ears slightly twitched at the mention of "little" cat boy.

"For the record, I'm not a "little" cat boy, I've been living for 42 years. And..... thanks. I was sure I was a goner back then, even if that guy kept insisting his friends were gonna come and rescue us. And you guys actually did. But.... it was too late to dissect the bomb outta him. He wasn't such a bad guy... He took the beating for me when those bastards threatened me to spill the beans about some trash about spying. Though I still don't get why we were thrown in there in the first place."

He paused when a-- what was this human-like black energy creature anyway? Whatever he was, he offered a cup of some sort of drink to Kidd. Before doing anything, the Furlyne stared and sniffed at the drink. This familiar scent... It had milk in it! Without hesitation, the boy blew on the hot drink and gulped down the whole royal milk tea in one go then released a satisfied sigh before putting on a more serious expression once again. "That was pretty great! Alastair, was it? Thanks. The name's Kidd, a Furlyne mechanic. And 100 years? Whatcha going on about?"

[boomlover]

JACK/docking bay
"wait that thing is 42!!". jack thought to him self trying to hide the suprise on his face.
" and what is a furlyne anyway seems like a cat and a human crossbreeded and a that thing was the result even though it looks kinda cute.
i always was a catperson and an engineer huh? that will realy come in handy since this piece of junk hasnt had a good fix in a 100 bloody years.
so i think im not gonna be a total ass to it."

"let me explain everyone here has expect Anastasia been sleeping in a cryopod for atleast a 100 bloody years.why you might ask i have no clue. then we where awakend bye Anastasia who asked us for help to save her friend who is now a pink mist. and also suprsingly you.the name is jack bye the way happy to meet you."

after that he looked at the rest of the crew and said." can we mabey explain a bit more while where eating im bloody starving right now.
i mean there has to be some frozen food left right?"

Teige, Comms Room.

The moment the humans arrived at the loading bay with their rescue in tow, Teige moved back deep into the ship, specifically the Comms Room.

Teige pressed a button on the Comms Console and the screen turned on. White noise was all that could be seen until she punched in a series of numbers - 273602. Then the white noise suffered a distortion, and after some seconds, the screen turned black. A single message appeared:'Could not connect.'

Teige swore under her breath, balled up her fists and input the number again. This time the screen fizzled and a face appeared. Another Foreas. This one had a dark green skin tone and short, fleshy leaves. "Tans'kun na Bioy," he said with a salute, "Exploronaut 360, Teige, you're alive?"

"I am, have a hundred years really passed?" Teige asked.

"Yes, Teige. The Priests declared you dead to the whole Institution, you'll have to visit them sometime soon to clear that up."

"That's the least of my worries right now, Waige."

"Why did you cut comms for a hundred years? Other Exploronauts tried to find you and communicate with you, but the ship was untrackeable and nobody ever accepted the hails." Waige asked, raising his right eyebrow and frowning. He seemed worried, but also curious.

"I don't know, really. Some kind of human super soldier woke us up from cryosleep a few hours ago, I'd never seen a human like that. She said there were fifty other super soldiers and that Humanity was going extinct. Is this last bit true, Waige?"

"We haven't had much communication with the humans since you went missing --The Priests believed their government did something to you-- but we did keep tabs on them. Sometime in the last few decades, their population started dramatically decreasing," Waige hesitated, a gesture that Teige noticed, "Many species have started to take over abandoned human colonies by now--Free buildings and colonization efforts, after all."

"Did we take over any of the colonies?"

"... Not entirely," Waige said, "but an Exploronaut task team recently entered human space, they are to settle down on one of the empty colonies to research the possible extinction of Humanity."

"Could you patch them through to me, Waige?"

"Of course, Teige. Hold on for a second." Teige gave him a big smile, and he returned one in kind. After a moment, the chat with Waige cut off and the screen changed to show the face of a female Foreas. Brown skin and long, thin leaves.

"Tans'kun na Bioy," the foreas saluted, "Exploronaut 367, Roi. Everyone thought you were dead, 360. We're glad you're still with us."

Teige saluted back, "Tans'kun na Bioy. I'm glad you people are glad, and you can call me Teige. I'm calling you because I heard you were in human space as of now. Is that right, Roi?"

"It is, we are near one of the remaining population centers. They're not letting us land, though."

"Well, in that case," Teige started pressing buttons on the console and soon she had sent a message to Roi, "I just sent you my coordinates. Come pick me up, I've got a human super soldier here who seems to know what's up. After we interview her, I'm sure we can group up. We get our research and they get to find out more about their extinction."

Roi thought about it for a moment. She seemed hesitant, even to the point that she brought a finger up to her lips, frown clear on her face. She turned around and called for someone not seen in the transmission, "What do you think, Koi?"

"Um... Sure. We're not making much progress here either way." the unseen foreas said, and with that Roi turned to Teige and nodded.

"We'll pick you up," Roi reviewed the coordinates, "it'll take us a few hours to get there, you're not that far from us."

"Great, Roi. Thank you for picking me up." Teige smiled and winked at her, then cut off the transmission with her, which brought her back to Waige's. "Thanks for the help, Waige. You're a good operator." She said.

Waige grinned and rubbed his neck, "I'm glad you're still with us, Teige."

Teige smiled and formed a heart with her hands, then cut off the comms and erased her ID from the comms' history.

[SwordfishKnight]

Anastasia

Anastasia stared at the bandana in her hand originally tied around Asim's right arm,it was now in her hand, its owner gone to the winds. She clutched it tightly holding on to it. Alistair handed her a towel. With a blank face, she wiped the viscera from her face. Stepping around the blood that had splattered from Asim onto the ground beneath her, she walked onwards and forwards. She shoved past the rest of the crew, still holding onto the bandana. Nearing the captain her flat voice spoke up.

"I'll be in the cargo bay. Contact me if you need me."

She strolled down to the cargo bay,and entered the room. Before she could hit the ground, the vomit and blood expelled from her mouth and nose. She coughed it up, letting a good amount go to the floor.

"Euuuugggghhh. That didn't feel good."

Anastasia looked around. At the edge of the room, stood a large cryo chamber. In it stood some tall armored man.

"It can't hurt to release him. If he kills me, so be it."

With that, she pressed the button and let the hiss of release soothe her.

Valerius | Ship

"Hm? Whuzzis? Wasn't Ana playing around with this...?", he said to himself, picking up the tablet and walking towards the helm. By the time he got to the captain's seat, he was sifting through the files already. There were maps, diagrams, all that, but he wasn't interested in any of that... He just wanted to see if he could find something sugary and fly there and pick some up or something. He swiped past a large bunch of things, most of which seemed wholly important... 'Super soldiers'... 'Operations'... 'Confidential'. None of that mattered to him. Though in classic style of browsing databases, he got bored and gave up trying to find out what the best sweets in the universe were at the moment and just settled on the super soldiers file out of frustration and boredom.

"Mhm... Mhm... Hmmmmmm... Hm. Huh... Yeah this is boring", he decided. Super soldiers, only humans were successful in creation, yadda yadda, strength blah speed blah blah. One per country blah blah. He finally put the tablet down and just looked blankly into space...
