Introduction

Observation Colony XIII , has been terminated.
-Day:1 of Month:1 of Year:130,003 of Experiment
Observation Colony XIII , original termination not fully effective, few bastions of survivors.
-Day:25 of Month:1 of Year:130,003 of Experiment
Massive Scale attack ineffective against survivors, authorizing use of Extermination Squads.
-Day:7 of Month:2 of Year:130,003 of Experiment

The Message above was a rough transcription of message beamed to the HQ of Observation Colony XIII.

3-4-2013
Humanity was all a lie. No religion, no faith, no scientist could have known the truth, and we prosecuted those who did know the truth to a life of shame and shunning. Who could of guessed they were right all along. For over 130,000 years humanity tried to explain their existence and their creation, they turn to religion and faith. Some said we were created of clay, others say the first woman was made of a rib. They tried to justify it, with a divine creator, whether it be a god, or many gods. It's sort of sad they were all wrong. People wanted to have a purpose in life, well we all do, not a good one, but its still a purpose, we were lab rats, and experimentation for them. Nothing could have prepared the population at large for the shock of the message we received on New Year's Eve, for 2013, I remember every twisted word of it, and I write it here, so I may never forget them...
"Dwellers of Observation Colony XIII, you have been our test subjects for the past years, but we regret to inform you, that it must be terminated. This is the final message to be given to you, within moments your existence will end, we apologize for the inconvenience."
(Handwriting Becomes more frantic)
I'm not sure how me and the others survived, but we did, and now I write this, so any other survivors may know of our fate, they are coming. I can feel them scratching at the wall, and can feel them hissing.
(End of message is unreadable and stained with blood.)
-Loose page from a survivor diary.

The year is 2013, and the world as you know it is over. Earth, or better known now as Observation Colony XIII is a terminated project, and most of humanity has been destroyed. The OC13(Observation Colony XIII) was a experiment run for 130,003 years by a race of aliens, known to survivors as Margules. Horrid Cruel and disturbing in appearance, the Margules stand between 8 and 10 feet tall, with a thin gray layer of unbelievably flexible layer of rigid chitin covering them. On each hand they have 6 long, bony fingers ending in sharp talons. The rest of the Margule anatomy is or appearance is unknown due to the fact they are almost always seen in battle or biohazard suits, which are bulky and heavy. The suits are made of some sort of metal alloy and offers almost full protection, it looks rigid and much like their chitin and is of a dark shade, with specialization colors painted on the pauldrons.

White:Soldier
Black:Sniper
Blue:Shock Trooper(Specializes in raiding and blitzkrieg type operations)
Yellow:Incinerator
Red:Berzerker(Close combat speciality)
Green:Scientists
Purple:Fear Reavers(Elite Unit)

Margule Technology is far more advanced than humans, reaching an age of being able to harvest enough energy from a small and efficient source to create solid energy masses. In short the technology has advanced beyond lasers, so much so that they are now energy projectiles instead. Their weapons are often small and built-into the armor, making them almost impossible to salvage, leaving humans with the lack of a "Taste of their own medicine" advantage.
Margule Technology uses the massive power of an atom splitting, and controls and focuses the energy, but little else is known of their technology. How the atom's blast is controlled is unknown to any survivor, and its a well kept secret of the Margule.
Most of Margulian Tech and Customs are unknown, due to little interaction with the race outside of combat, Survivors in the position to do research are working feverishly to find way to neutralize the Margule threat.
(More to be added later, this is a work in progress, if you make a character now, remember somethings will be subject to change, I promise this will grow to be huge soon, but now I have to take it one step at a time, thanks for your Understanding)

Jonah Williams bashes the door in with his shovel. Splinters and shards of wood fly as the door to the abandonned apartment swings swings open, the doorknob punching a hole in the wall. Jonah walks in, looking for anything salvagable. He throws things every which where when he doesn't need them, making a bigger mess than before. He goes in the kitchen and searches for any food.

Jess heard something smash and splinter as she leaned against the wall. Sh leaped up from her position of slouching against a wall and began to panic. It had to the one of the squads it was the only logical thought, and the survivor soon felt her chest smashed by fear, her legs were trembling, they were going to kill her, weren't they? Jess gave one final scan over the abandoned city, it reminded her of a child's doll house, everything perfect and exact, the only thing missing were the people, and then she started running, trying to get away form the direction of the sound. It seemed that every time her flight instinct destroyed her fight instinct.

Alexandra 'Zandy' Tate heard a loud noise. Her head jerked up from her position on the floor and she stumbled over to where the noise had come from, noticing the door. Half of her was screaming run, the other was screaming investigate. She mumbled to herself for a moment and decided to simply stand and listen. She was good at that. That usually worked.

Jonah Williams opened cupboards and drawers, taking anything he could find. Cooking utensils and food went in his cooking bag, while the rest (a mousetrap, an ice tray, a dish rag and the sink's tap) went into his camping bag, which was filled with things he salvaged randomly. It was his goal. Salvaging as many things as possible in order to rebuild humanity. He looked around and sighed, "Looks like I'll need the truck for the rest..."

Jess felt as if burning knives were being shoved into her knee, but she was too busy running to notice. She kept running through the urban maze, dodging the occasional trash on the floor or garbage bag. Her foot snagged on something and she fell forward, her hand immediately shooting out to break her fall, only to be met with cold hard concrete. She let out a yelp of pain and turned around seeing the object that had impeded her, a empty garbage bag. The only word she could think to force out of her mouth were, "Merda."

Jonah Williams had learned that when everything is silent, the slightest sound is the loudest. He heard the yelp very easily, considering the fact that the Margules had destroyed everything... He walked to the window and looked down. He saw a young woman clutching her knee in pain. A survivor? He walked out of the apartment... only to find another girl standing in the hallway. He tilted his head, "OK, how many survivors are there?"

The survivor continued to clutch her knee and took a deep breath, trying to stand up. The Margules would find her now she knew it, they were close, and they would end her just like they ended her friend. She tried to stand up again and run again, but as she moved her leg she was only met with agony, causing her to fall back down. Jess began to blink tears out of her eye, this was the end. Her mind started to go numb, unable to read any other messages sent to it and she broke down crying. Jess thought those were her last seconds on OC13. Warms tears streaked down her cheek, and she soon felt herself repeating the same word over and over again, "Nao, Nao, Nao."

Jonah Williams came out of the apartment, his shovel at the ready... if any alien was out there, he was not going to go down without a fight... Looking down the hallway, he saw no one... he calmly walked down the hallway, looking in every direction...

Jessica Morais clenched her eyes tighter as she heard footsteps, She was dead. All her survival in vain all of it. Everything she lived for had violently come to an end. The ground was cold beneath her, the cement scraped and scratched at her skin. All of it wasted, by a trashbag.

Alexandra 'Zandy' Tate had heard whimpering before. She walked from where she had been standing, no longer taking any notice of the door to the apartment. She hadn't even noticed the man that had exited it. She wandered down the hallway, the first few steps quickly building to a sprint before suddenly she was outside. She tilted her head for a moment and looked to the sides worriedly. Why did she go outside again?

Andrew McCallahan was just walking along the streets like a zombie. His fiancée was dead, and he survived. He couldn't think of anything worse than this. He felt hollow, and he didn't know what to do with himself now that she was gone. What reason did he have to live? Oh...right. He was going to kill ever last one of those Margules, no matter what.

Jonah Williams looked around the deserted city... no one. He frowned and continued to walk at a relaxed pace, his shovel hanging at his side... He continued to walk through the streets, litter everywhere... He took note of the things he might want to take with him... He finally spotted something moving... Turning towards the source of movement, he saw what looked human... He wasn't sure... carefully, he approached the figure...

Jessica Morais whimpered again, the footsteps came closer. Odd they weren't as heavy as a Margule's, they also lacked the sound of metal or chitin clicking on the concrete. Jessica opened her eyes and climbed to her elbows to look at the approaching stranger. Warm tears still fell from both eyes, and her knee still caused her agony, but she had stopped whimpering, at least. She opened her mouth to speak and felt tears drip onto her lips and she clamped her mouth shut again.

Alexandra 'Zandy' Tate pressed herself close to the wall of the apartment complex and looked around her carefully before scrambling around the building, barely aware of where she was going. They would come again...They had already taken her mother, her father, her brother...She didn't want to go, too, though. She rubbed the large scar on her forehead and continued to creep along the wall, turning the corner carefully.

Andrew McCallahan looked up only to see a young girl walking along the wall. Could she be another surviver? He placed a hand to his gun, just in case. "Hey kid, are you alright?" he asked with a dull voice. He saw a rather large scar on her forehead and wondered how she got it.

Jonah Williams approached the figure... he or she was too thin to be a Margule... nor did he or she have armour... He recognised the figure as being a woman of the human race... He rushed to her, seeing that she was in pain... He saw the tears on her face... He believed iin rebuilding humanity... He was not going to let any survivor behind, no matter what... Crouching next to her, he looked at her, "Where does it hurt?"

Alexandra 'Zandy' Tate twirled back to whoever had addressed her, blinking in a confused manner at first before she backpedaled a bit from him. "I'm alright...I'm alright..." she mumbled quietly, hugging herself tightly, as if trying to reassure herself more than anything. She tilted her head, eyes lighting up for a moment as if she had forgotten every horrible thing she had witnessed. "You look like my brother...He was older, though," she stated before her eyes dulled again and dropped to the ground.

Andrew McCallahan grimmiced. Here is another example of why he had to destroy the Margules. They destroy family's like the one this kid had. "Are you sure you are alright. Do you need me to help find you somebody?" he asked, sinking down to his knees to make himself seem less tall and frightening to the kid.

Jonah Williams nodded. He let his three bags slide down and rummaged through the one filled with cooking utensils and ingredients. He took out a first-aid kit and took out some gauze from the box. Rummaging in his bigger bag filled with trinkets and stuff, he took out a straight piece of wood, "Now this might hurt a bit more, but it'll help you walk after... brace yourself." Carefully, he straightened the woman's leg on top of the piece of wood, then wrapped gauze around it and her knee. He stopped his work, satisfied, "Want me to help you up?"

Jessica Morais whimpered as Jonah straightened out her leg. When he tightened the gauze she let out a yelp. The woman gazed up at him for a little while, and rather than say anything just offers her hand to be helped up.
