Survive The New World

Zombies have taken over the world, How? Why? Who knows, Who has time to care? Especially 5 years after the outbreak, all you can do is survive and hope to find a Colony...if it even exists.

Introduction

Image


5 years ago, suddenly the dead began to walk. No one had time to figure out what happened before it hit, and within months, the worldโ€™s population dropped from billions, to thousands.

Today, the year is 2018, live humans are scattered all of the world, and nature has taken back what is rightfully theirs. Now, all anyone can do is survive.
However, itโ€™s being rumored that people have been setting up in places called the Colony. Whether it exists or not, remains to be seen but to some itโ€™s all they have.

Tyler found himself with his legs dangerously hanging over the ledge on the rooftop of a old abandoned store that he had recently just checked. The place had been wiped clean from food and other supplies and so he was forced to leave the building more or less empty handed apart from a useless pair of garden pliers. He sighed lowering his head with a grunt of disappointment.

With a sharp inhale of his cigarette he glared out into the surrounding area around him. The place only had one or two of the wandering dead hanging around every few blocks but it was still rather unsafe to go sprinting around on the ground like a rabbit asking to be eaten by a pack of wolves.

That's why Tyler often turned to the rooftops. He described himself as a bit of a free runner but apart from that he was useless in this excuse of a "new world". The youth could easily leap from rooftop to rooftop and climb drain pipes and find a root up some cracks in a wall. You could also give him a baseball bat and he'd easily defend himself against one or two zombies. However, give the guy a map, a strategy to follow or just simply a tin opener and he would be unable to complete the simplest task. It was not mostly down to his idiocy, just to his lack effort.

Lack of purpose.

"Fucking scum..." He mumbled, giving a last glance to the hoard of dead stumbling down the road after what sounded like to be a gun shot in the distance. It seemed that now, even ages after the outbreak, people did not understand how they worked and hunted. Of course Tyler was not willing to help out who ever this fool was, not that he could say anything about idiocy.

Natural selection huh?

Arella hissed under her breath, cleaning beneath her fingernails with the tip of her dagger. She was crouched on the fire escape of a crumbling apartment complex, watching a Z shamble around beneath her, unaware of her presence. God, she hated the Zs. The way they smelled, the way they shuffled about, grunting and groaning. Still, she supposed, the undead were better than the living any day. With a sigh she rummaged in her pack, relying on touch while keeping her eyes on the Z below. The last house she had ransacked had been well stocked- the basement full of cans of fruit and beans, and packets of jerky. Enough to keep her going for days, maybe even a couple of weeks.

Somewhere in the distance, a gunshot rang out, and Arella groaned. Other humans. But still... If she was ever going to make it to the Colony she had heard so much about, she would need help and protection. Quickly, she pierced a can with the tip of her blade. Canned juice, stored in case of disaster.

"Well, at least I'm putting it to good use." she muttered under her breath, taking a swig. It was cloying and sweet and tasted of the metal inside of the can, but it beat the dirty gutter water running in the streets. Maybe, if she got her hands on some iodine tablets or some paraffin....

Another gunshot. Arella drained the can and then dropped it down into the street. The Z looked at it with a curious moan, and Arella lobbed a stray brick at its head. The creature fell, its head caved in, and she smirked. Whoever was out there shooting, finding them could be her best chance of finally making it to safety. Slinging her bag onto her shoulder she stood, and clambered to the ground, keeping one hand on her dagger. You never know who you could meet out there...

Yagami Asakusa


Image


Yagami sat at his desk using his computer to access the satellite footage of the remains of the United States. The BCMOโ€™s [Bio-terrorism Counter Measure Organizationโ€™s] new North American branch was now located in Canada where only few cities had been infected with the Virus. He had been awaiting orders to mount a search and rescue for any survivors. The politicians and the government that remained took too long deliberating and trying to make a decision regarding the fate of the survivors left to fend for themselves in the Unites States, five years too long. Finally a decision was made.

Image


โ€œAgent Asakusa, you have new orders. I think youโ€™ll finally be happy about these sir.โ€ Darren Evans, BCMO analyst said as he handed Yagami a file. He smiled as Yagami opened it up and began reading the contents. โ€œIt took forever but the bill was passed. Youโ€™re being deployed tomorrow.โ€ Darren continued.

Yagami was shocked to see that the BCMO had finally received the OK to rescue survivors from the death trap that became the United States of America. If there were any survivors they now had hope. Yagami could have shed tears of joy. He had been angry at the lack of care taken to rescue others. Politicians argued over issues of the spread of the infection by bringing survivors into safe zones, population control during the relocation process as well as other issues. Yagami felt it all was bullshit. The bottom line was the people were in desperate need of salvation from that zombie infested hell and the people in power didnโ€™t respond fast enough.

โ€œIs this real Darren? Please tell me this isnโ€™t a sick joke?โ€ Yagami looked up at Darren in disbelief.

โ€œItโ€™s real Yagami. If youโ€™ve need further proof, check my orders. Iโ€™ll be your tech support. Iโ€™ll be working round the clock to keep a satellite monitor on you and provide you with intel during your mission.โ€ Darren replied with a proud smile.

Yagami stood from his chair and patted Darren on the back. โ€œThank god! Iโ€™ll get prepped immediately. These people waited 5 years. Iโ€™ve got not another minute to spare.โ€ Yagami said as he headed toward the supply and weapons bay. He paused, and turned to face Darren. โ€œDarren, Iโ€™m sure you know something else. What is it? Donโ€™t try to shield me from it.โ€ Yagami added.

โ€œYou know me too well Sir. Well the intelligence team is still verifying its findings but itโ€™s been speculated that the United States is being used as a testing ground for Bio-chemical warfare development. Itโ€™s believed by the higher ups that stronger strands of the Z-Virus are currently in development but where and by whom exactly is still undetermined. Iโ€™ll be sure to keep you posted on my findings as youโ€™re in the field. I promise.โ€ Darren replied.

Yagami stepped closer to Darren and whispered discreetly, โ€œThanks, and keep your eyes and ears attentive around here. Iโ€™m under the impression that our superiors are hiding things. Someone knows something around here so watch your back when Iโ€™m gone. Okay Darren?โ€ Yagami was very concerned for his friend.

โ€œRodger that partner. But Iโ€™m more concerned for you. Youโ€™ll be out there fighting those things. And letโ€™s face it I know that the typical type of infected is not the only thing of danger out there. Iโ€™m sure there are further mutated out there so be careful. I donโ€™t want to have to engage in a rescue mission for you too.โ€ Darren replied.

The next day rolled in and Yagami was transpoted into the former United States of America. He looked down from the helicopter at the life deserted streets and crumbling buildings. The plant life had begun to reclaim the land that was once its own. It was a scary sight, and a frightening reality. The helicopter hovered over a few rooftops and Yagami spotted a man sitting on one of the rooftops. โ€œA survivorโ€ฆโ€ Yagami said in an intrigued tone.

Darren sat next to Yagami in the Helicopter, his portable database propped on his lap. โ€œThis is as far as I can go Yagami. Keep your communicator on at all times. It goes dead and Iโ€™ll come running after you. So just make sure it doesnโ€™t happen. Youโ€™ve got to make it to the extraction point to be picked up. There is apparently a colony of survivors according to intel. Please investigate it and weโ€™ll try to rescue everyone there after you report back on the number of people there. You can start the count with that guy on the roof.โ€ Darren explained.

โ€œRodger that Agent Evans.โ€ Yagami said with a smirk.

โ€œOh and donโ€™t forget. These people have changed and wonโ€™t trust you so easily. I know you really want to help them, but there will be those you will try to victimize you. Itโ€™ll be hard but please donโ€™t be afraid to kill a human if it means keeping them from killing you. I know it sounds harsh butโ€ฆโ€ Darren was interrupted by Yagami

โ€œI know, Darren. Look I understand. Iโ€™ll drop my blind hope in humanity if one of them tries to kill me. I better go. The longer this helicopter sticks around the more infected will be drawn to the noise. Take care and Iโ€™ll keep in touch.โ€ Yagami replied.

Yagami was lowered down to one of the rooftops. He pulled a tiny metal orb from his pocket. After pressing a button on the orb it began to hover in the air around Yagami. โ€œTesting Nano-Scout. Darren are you getting the video feed alright?โ€

The com-device beeped quietly as Darren responded, โ€œYes, I have a full 360 view. All satellites ins the region that are at my command can scan the immediate vicinity of where you are. So if you need intel on an area I can scout it out for you using Nano-Scout. Oh and Yagami, donโ€™t break my robot. Agent Darren Evans out.โ€

Yagami smirked as he watched the helicopter ascend further into the air. He watched as it went further out of view. Yagami turned toward the direction in which he saw the young man seated on the roof. It was only a few rooftops away. Yagami made his way toward the young manโ€™s location and just as he came into sight a gunshot fired in the distance. Yagami scanned the area with his eyes. He saw no one but the young man. He decided to announce himself instead of walking up on the young man.

โ€œUm excuse me sir. Are you alright? Iโ€™m Agent Yagami Asakusa of the Bio-chemical Counter Measures Organizationโ€™s Japanese Branch. Under the guidelines of โ€˜Proposition 54: Survivor Search and Rescue Actโ€™, Iโ€™m here on a search and rescue mission for survivors of the Z-Virus bombings. Are you alone?โ€ Yagami explained to the man. He hated giving such a lengthy announcement and explanation but protocol was supposed to be followed. However before he allowed his tongue to fall off from saying the long greeting too many tomes, heโ€™d chuck the protocol and simplify it.

Image Jessica walked through the store, filled with supplies, shaking her head. It was a trap and she and Derek walked right into it. The music stopped and was replaced by a voice. She couldn't quite make out what it was saying but she didn't really care. She needed to find Derek, that was her whole goal at this point. Nothing else mattered. Then she heard it.

The noisemaker.

โ€œShit.โ€ Jessica moved faster toward the sound but froze when she heard a voice say "Today here, we have a band of survivors against a zombie hoard! Will humanity prevail? Or will the zombies increase in numbers!! Let's find out!"

Suddenly, A horde of them came pouring in. Someone had a serious Hunger Games fantasy...
Jessica grabbed her bat and swung on zombies left and right.
Honestly, they didn't really stand a chance, if they were gonna face them head on. They had one option...

Run.

She scanned for Derek and was relived when she finally spotted him. She started after him, only to get violently snatched backwards and landed hard on her back. She looked up to see at least seven of them, snapping at her. She kicked and swung as hard as she could, she knocked out a good majority of them but she was getting tired, she really needed a gun at this point but she didn't believe they'd work too well because they'd only attract more...she was doomed. โ€œ RUN DEREK!โ€

Derek had started to run, but then he saw Jess being overwhelmed by zombies. She was the one person he felt he could trust, and he was not going to lose her. He took out his bow, and started firing arrows to clear a path between her and him. However, this let other zombies from other sides to start getting closet to him. A zombie lunged toward him, but he quickly took out a knife and pierced his skull with it, letting the zombie use most of its own force to kill it.

However, they were closing in on him too. He wanted to yell for help, but he was a mute. He really needed to fix that, somehow.

Two zombies came at him again, he put an arrow into one of them, and a knife in the other. But he was getting tired. Derek was more of a "bursts of energy" person. He regained energy really quickly, but he wasn't that good with long term combat most of the time.

That is when a zombie grabbed him from behind, and tried to bite him. He stabbed it in the head and pushed away, creating a tear in his shirt. This was my favorite shirt, too. Well, out of the three I have...

He shot two more zombies in the head, finally clearing a path in between him and Jess. However, three zombies came at him from behind, trying to bite and kill him. He fought them back, trying to push away, but it was three verses one, even if they didn't really have any muscle. A child zombie came out of nowhere as well, going after him low.

Derek needed help. He stabbed one of the zombies attacking him, but he seriously needed help.

He hoped that those people they met were as good as they seemed.

Izumi Tachikawa

Izumi put away his com-device and proceeded to head after the young woman and little boy. The sound of the music they had heard grew louder which also meant that trouble wouldnโ€™t be far behind as well. The music suddenly halted and a what sounded like a voice recording began to play. "Today here, we have a band of survivors against a zombie hoard! Will humanity prevail? Or will the zombies increase in numbers!! Let's find out!"

Izumi froze in place for a moment. โ€œHmmโ€ฆ it seems Simmons isnโ€™t the only one playing games around here. There must be another string puller about as well.โ€ Izumi rolled his eyes and sighed. โ€œYou always drag me into the worst situations simmons.โ€ He muttered to himself.

Izumi sprinted toward the commotion inside the deserted shop. There he found the young woman and the boy he heard referred to as Dee being overtaken by the infected. โ€œI canโ€™t go letting this sort of thing happen to them now can I?โ€ He said to himself. He shot a few crossbow arrows at a couple of the zombies that held Dee down. Both arrows pierced through two zombies heads causing them to burst open due to the sheer force of the shots. The child zombie remained attempting to attack the boy. Izumi used his grappling hook to hook itself around the neck of the child zombie and he reeled it toward him. Once the zombie lay on its back at Izumiโ€™s feet he stomped the head open with his boot.

โ€œWell thatโ€™s another notch on my list of first time moments. Stomping open a child zombie headโ€ฆโ€ Izumi cringed a little. It was now time to help the young lady. Izumi fired a well-placed arrow into the chest of one of the attacking zombies and it was impaled, stuck to a wall. Before Izumi could help the young woman any further he was rushed from the right side by a rather large zombie. This man must have been a hulk of a man while alive and he was no exception in the undead state. Izumi struggled with the zombie and the undead man eventually managed to tackle Izumi down. Izumi was able to hold him off from mauling him but this could go on for much longer. He snatched an arrow from his quiver and impaled the zombieโ€™s throat with it. Izumi was able to kick the zombie of of him and in a few seconds the arrow detonated. Causing the zombieโ€™s head to explode. Izumi quickly climbed to his feet. Who knew if there were more.

โ€œYou two! We had better make tracks or else this well become seriously aesthetically unappealing!โ€ Izumi said in a voice still calm and only slightly under a yell.

The stupidity of others almost made Arella ashamed to be human. She had followed the noise and discovered a band of survivors, like her. Still... Trust was a rare commodity, and all of them seemed to be armed. One even had a bow, something that her little dagger would stand a snowball's chance in Hell against. So instead of marching up and introducing herself, like the well-dressed one had, she kept back, watching them from the cover of a nearby building. Of course, when the little kid wandered towards the store, she had to resist the urge to shout. That much food, out in the open like that... It was strange. And the strange was not to be trusted.

As usual, she was right. The store was a trap, though Arella couldn't help but wonder who had the time to set something like that up with all the Zs around. As much as she wanted to help (The poor people were out numbered) she knew that blindly rushing in during an attack was a surefire way to get killed. If one of them mistook her for a Z, she would be dead before she could say "hi". So she did what she did best- she stayed still and waited. But there was just so much food in that store... And you could never have enough. Not to mention that there was a packet of sugar wafers on one of the shelves. God, how long had it been since she's had one of those? As the fight raged on, Arella crept closer, ducking behind several upturned trashcans and wincing as several rats scurried away into the street. But no one seemed to notice.

"You two! We had better make tracks, or else this will become seriously aesthetically unpleasing!" The well-dressed one shouted. Now that she was closer, Arella could see that he was Korean, or something like that. Being politically correct had been dropped to the bottom of her priorities list once the dead began to walk. She moved closer, but at that moment a Z appeared from a nearby ally, it's mouth open and its rotting arms extending towards her. She shrieked and rolled away as it grabbed at her, managing to grasp the back of her jacket. Drawing her knife, she sliced off several of its fingers and wormed away. There was an iron bar on the ground next to her, and she grabbed it, swinging it at the Z's head. It faltered, and she struck again, stopping only when the corpse fell to the ground, unmoving.

"Frickin' Z." She cursed. Standing up straight, she dropped the bar, then turned. Everyone's eyes were on her, and the boy had his crossbow directed at her face. Quickly, she sheathed her knife, held up her hands in a gesture of surrender, and said the only thing that came to her mind.

"It's okay. I'm nice!"

James had stood a little ways off with Uncle Luke, not really paying attention. It was something he was doing more and more now and he knew it was foolish. If he spaced out and a zombie attacked him, he was dead or worse, infected. Nonetheless, he snapped out of it when he heard the radio in the distance and the telltale groan of the zombies.

"Today here, we have a band of survivors against a zombie hoard! Will humanity prevail? Or will the zombies increase in numbers!! Let's find out!"

"Fucking assholes!" he cursed, recognized the radio. What kind of sick bastard set up these traps anyway? He did not know, but it was a sad fact of life that although the zombies ended civilization, some humans were worse. He gripped his bat in one hand and held his pistol in another as he rushed over to the commotion. It seemed that the group had taken care of most of them and were unharmed, which was a relief. There was even a new girl. He raised an eyebrow, but before he cold say anything, another one rushed behind her back and he fired his pistol at its ankle, making it stumble before swinging his bat, breaking its neck.

"We need to leave. Now," he said shortly. He glanced at the new girl but said nothing. Introductions cold wait for later.

Tyler inhaled a strong breath of his cigarette and began exhaling strong puffed patterns of looped smoke. He could have labelled this as entertainment. He then tossed the butt over the edge onto the road below before lazily standing up to leave. In the distance, he heard the purr of some kind of vehicle that he could not really be bothered to pay attention to, and so continued onwards to leap and grasp onto the near by garage with his fingertips.

With great upper arm strength he yanked his body up onto the ledge, with a grunt due to strain on his hands. He swore he was losing his skills; about a month ago he could have even jumped the gap with out having to catch. Tyler was able to add this to his list of reasons to not survive.

Of course another thing on that list was his lack of ability to hear people approaching. One day that would cost him.

โ€œUm excuse me sir. Are you alright? Iโ€™m Agent Yagami Asakusa of the Bio-chemical Counter Measures Organizationโ€™s Japanese Branch. Under the guidelines of โ€˜Proposition 54: Survivor Search and Rescue Actโ€™, Iโ€™m here on a search and rescue mission for survivors of the Z-Virus bombings. Are you alone?โ€


Sir...?

Tyler turned around sharply to find a dark haired male addressing him from the rooftop he had just leapt from. He gave him a puzzled and rather rude expression before falling into silence. The youth tried to go over what he had just said, plucking out pieces of information that included he was from some Japanese organisation and here pick up the stragglers.

His very formal and confident greeting made Tyler uneasy, not that he would admit that. "You know, Mummy told he not to talk to strangers...." He sniggered sharply, 'greeting' the man with a smirk. "Do I look like I have company to you?" He explained, giving a gesture of the lack of living by moving his palm. "You know I have heard guys like you taking survivors as unwilling test subjects, why should I trust you? Huh?"

[font=sylfaen]Jessica watched as the Zombies that attacked her fell down dead...like forever dead. She got to her feet after Derek. Everyone else at this point could go to hell. As appreciative as she was, Derek was her main and only concern. She rushed to his side, just as more Zombies came rushing in. "Dammit all!" She screamed and grabbed a whole of Derek's arm and yanked him toward the exit, running at full speed but she got grabbed by the ankle and yanked to the ground by a legless zombie. It snapped at her, as she landed on her stomach, slamming her head on the marble. She saw colors and flashes of light but still managed to kick the zombie hard in the face, her foot knocking it's head back multiple times before it's neck snapped. "Run Dee, I'm coming!" She shouted as she clamoured to her feet. She didn't get to her feet fast enough, as more swarmed them. She needed a gun or something to level the playing field.

She saw Derek and he was close enough to door. She could by him some time.

She pushed him out the door and stood in front of it as the zombie rushed her. She fought as best she could.

As others came to help, a zombie came out of nowhere and tackled him, biting and knowing at him. Derek used his forearm to block it while he stabbed it in the eye. He put two more arrows into the zombies, to help Jess. That is when the voice appeared again, this time using some sort of speaker system to make it impossible to pinpoint the exact location.

"Well well well. Looks like the survivors are surviving, if only barely. How to make this more fun...oh, I know. I can offer you a drink!"

Just then, although Derek could not see from where, Molotovs seemingly fell from the sky. Now, while fire seemed like it was a good idea against zombies, it wasn't. Not unless it burned them quick enough. In fact, it only made zombies more dangerous, because it was impossible to fight a flaming zombie close up. You would get burned or set in fire.

Derek had to resort to his arrows to deal with them. But this psychopath attacking them all was only going to make things worse. There were too many zombies to deal with, however.

He felt like shit though. So many zombies, they couldn't just keep up the fighting. He put two more zombies down, but his muscles were starting to ache. We need to get out of here...

Arella swore aloud when she was the Molotovs coming down on them.

"Who the frick has time to put together shit like this?!" she asked, jumping to the side to avoid one of the flaming bottles. The boy was taking them out the Zs with his arrows, but flaming corpses were much harder to deal with than the normal ones. She took up another iron bar and swung at an advancing Z. It fell, skull crushed, and she turned to the next one. Unfortunetly, this one was aflame, and she narrowly dodged having her hair scorched. "If we're going to survive this, we have to run, now!" she started off in the direction of one her favorite alleyways, but noticed that no one was following. They didn't trust her- and with good reason. She wouldn't trust a random person running down the street to keep her alive when there was potential loot to be had. "Look, if you want to live... You better keep up. You lot coming?"

Yagami Asakusa, Darren Evans

"You know, Mummy told me not to talk to strangers...." The man sniggered sharply, 'greeting' Yagami with a smirk. "Do I look like I have company to you?" He explained, giving a gesture of the lack of living by moving his palm. "You know I have heard guys like you taking survivors as unwilling test subjects, why should I trust you? Huh?"

Yagami raised his eyebrow inquisitively. This man was strange indeed. Yagami listened as Darren commented via Yagamiโ€™s ear piece, โ€œI told you some of the people youโ€™ll encounter arenโ€™t all there in the head Yagami. However ask him what he knows about these kidnappings and experiments heโ€™ mentioned.โ€

โ€œI understand your apprehension in trusting me. But what you said about people testing on survivors is news to me. No one has been allowed authorized entry into this country for about five years now. Proposition 54 was just passed yesterday. So anyone whoโ€™s entered this country between five years ago and yesterday, without authorization, is suspect. What have you heard regarding this, do you know anything more?โ€ Yagami asked the man standing before him.

Darren pondered the situation further. It seemed that the missile attacks on United States that caused the Z-Virus outbreak might not have simply been an act of desperation by Terrorists but a preliminary to bio-chemical testing.


Izumi Tachikawa

There was so much going on. Izumi noticed a fragment of a zombieโ€™s skull lying on the ground. In the heat of the moment he quickly placed the fragment on a small carry case for samples that he was to collect. Given that there was so much happening around them, no one would have noticed his quick movement to collect the fragment and conceal it, the others had their own problems to deal with.

Another young woman found herself stumbling into the mix. Izumi pointed his crossbow at the young lady only initially. One could never be too sure if what was coming at you was a zombie of not until proper inspection was given. When the young woman spoke saying, "It's okay. I'm nice!"

Izumi lifted his crossbow from being pointed at her and apologized. โ€œSorry about that. One can never be too careful wouldnโ€™t you agree?โ€ Izumi flashed the young woman a quick smirk. To most others, Izumi was like a cat, seemingly always displaying some sense of balance in a situation.

Izumi then heard the voice over the speaker sound once more. "Well well well. Looks like the survivors are surviving, if only barely. How to make this more fun...oh, I know. I can offer you a drink!" The voice rang out from many different directions.

Izumi frowned for the first time since touching down in the zombie infested land. โ€œSomeoneโ€™s definitely playing a sick and twisted game here.โ€ He said. He knew Simmons hadnโ€™t set something like this up. It was far too contrary to his style of doing things. Simmons would also never put Izumi in such a situation without having carefully planned things out with him. Whoever was behind this was becoming a high priority for investigation. Molotovs fell from the air as the zombies that remained continued to attack.

Izumi saw the young boy taking action and firing arrows at the zombies. โ€œIsnโ€™t he quick on his feet? I like that.โ€ Izumi said quietly to himself. Izumi also began to fire at the burning zombies with cross bow bolts. Their numbers didnโ€™t seem to decrease much. This wasnโ€™t going to end well if they didnโ€™t run.

"Who the frick has time to put together shit like this?!" the second young woman asked, jumping to the side to avoid one of the flaming bottles.

โ€œOne sick bastard.โ€ Izumi replied as he took out a black handgun and fired shots at the burning zombies that attacked them. Izumi felt it was safe to use the gun now seeing that there was already so much noise about at the moment, it didnโ€™t really make much of a difference to try to be silent or not.

"If we're going to survive this, we have to run, now!" she started off in the direction of one her favorite alleyways, but noticed that no one was following. "Look, if you want to live... You better keep up. You lot coming?" the brunette said to the group.

Izumi looked over in her direction, โ€œYou can count me in. I have no further intention to continue playing this lunaticโ€™s game.โ€ Izumi then turned to the others. โ€œI think weโ€™d benefit by sticking together with situations like this possibly occurring again. Youโ€™d be wise to make a run for it too.โ€ Izumi then followed the young woman. He stopped to see if the others were following as well. He didnโ€™t want to leave anyone behind.

"Well well well. Looks like the survivors are surviving, if only barely. How to make this more fun...oh, I know. I can offer you a drink!" the voice shouted and Jessica's eyes widen as fire rained down on them . "Dammit all!" She barked as she ran through the burning zombies. She grabbed up Derek, he was beginning to look very weak. She toss him over her shoulder and started out the exit just as a brunette shouted out "Look, if you want to live... You better keep up. You lot coming?"

Jessica didn't need to be told twice as she followed the girl along. She ran as fast as she could before her legs gave out, thankfully she and Derek were a good ways away.
She set him down and caught her breath. "What in the good fuck was that all about?" She panted, " You okay, Dee?" She asked him, then signed it. He wasn't deaf, she knew that but with all the chaos that was going on, she wouldn't be surprised if he was now. She checked for bite marks and an other injuries. Nothing. Thank God.
"All Clear."

Derek, clear of zombies, continued to pick them off from afar, as well as retrieving several arrows he fired. However, he momentairily panicked when someone picked him up. Luckily he realized it was Jess before he kicked her in the face. However, he couldn't help but vomit a little. He was half upside down and moving. Not a good combo. He managed to not vomit on Jess at least though.

When she put him down, she checked herself for bitemarks. He looked around, to see if any zombies were present, but he couldn't see any. He put his knife away, and felt some pain in his arm. He extended it to look at it. There was blood on it. His blood. He was bitten. (Kinda what happens when you get swarmed by zombies. He isn't some super elite commando with armor. Oh well,time for backup character I guess. >.>)

He backed away from the rest of the group whether they had noticed or not. He quickly reached for his knife, but before he could he started convulsing.

He fell to the floor, convulsing and spazzing out of control. This was the second stage of the infection. The first was fatigue and muscle aches. The second stage was the spazzing, convulsing, and healing. It's why crippled people who were infected were able to walk and run so well. The spazzing and convulsing were just side affects of the rapid healing. It healed every part of your body before the second part of the virus activated.

(Taking a bit from what you wrote in Izumi's history for this part)

There were two parts of the virus. The first part, on it's own, was beneficial and helpful. It healed. The second part is the weapon. It turned people into monsters. However, the second part is useless without the first part. On its own, the second part of the virus can't spread from human to human. It was also far more likely to be rooted out and destroyed by common white blood cells, turning it from a 100% chance of infection to a 20% chance. And it would be unable to spread effectively.

And now came the third stage. Death. Derek was dead on the ground, lifeless. Sure, the virus would bring him back, but his heart would not beat, and his lungs would not take breath. And soon, the forth stage would come.

Derek shot up off the ground. And he took a breath. (Wait, wut? 'Baaane, you said he was dead!'. No. Go back and read. I said he got swarmed by zombies. Didn't say anything about death).

This was impossible. Derek was clearly infected. His wounds healed. He even died. He should be a zombie. But instead, he had come back to life. His wounds were healed. He was back to full health. Oddly enough, he still seemed to be unable to speak. But how? What made him so special that he was immune?

Simple. Genetics. He had a random part of his genetic code, that maybe five people total have in the world. This one random bit of genetic code, hidden in the junk DNA, made his body produce a very specific white blood cell. Now, this white blood cell was useless really. It didn't do anything. Or, at least it didn't used to. But when the virus was released, it's purpose was revealed. This particular white blood cell destroyed only the second part of the infection. The weapon. It made the virus what it was originally supposed to be. A way to heal others. The first time someone with this white blood cell would be infected, they would stay dead for about an hour. The next time, a few seconds. After that, it would just heal them, getting less painful each time.

Of course, no one knew this. It would be a surprise for them. But more importantly, Derek was immune. It made him the most valuable person of the group for several reasons. Being immune, he should be the one to enter buildings first and open the doors, because if he got bit, no problem. He wouldn't die. Hell, he would be healed. If you injected him with blood from a zombie, it would heal him.

Secondly, it made him valuable because he could be used to find a cure, or at least a vaccination. No more becoming infected. The humans could retake their cities, go deeper into compounds, go into more zombie infested areas. Of course, theoretically, it could also be used to find a way to control the zombies and effectively use them as a weapon. But that could only lead to abuse of power, tyranny, and suffering, because it would only take one man obsessed with greed or power to do this, and who wants that? No one good, that is for sure.

As Derek looked at everyone, only one thought raced through his mind. Why the fuck am I not dead?

(That was a big one. Whew)

Jessica Matthews
Not Gonna Get Us- TaTu



ImageJessica watched in horror as Derek looked at his arm.

"no." She said, shaking her head. "no no no no no..." She said again and tears started streaming down her face. "Oh Dee, No..." She said as she moved toward him. He moved back and dropped them down to the ground, convulsing. She walked up to him, she was a nurse, she knew what she should do, in case of a seizure. She turned him on his side but then he went still. Too Still. Jessica let off a horrified scream as she dropped her head on his chest.

That was it, She was going to kill herself. She couldn't survive without Derek. He was her reason to continue but with him gone, there was no need.

She'd kill them both, She wouldn't let him turn. He didn't deserve that. She moved her head to the side of his, tears streaming down her face still. "I'm Sorry, Dee." She sobbed and grabbed her tanto, She would stab through her head and his, killing them both permanently. Just as she rose her hand, Derek popped up and Jessica rolled onto her back. Her eyes were wide.

"Dee?" She peeped. If he turned, she's still continued her trip to Hell but the look on his face was very alive and very Derek. She smiled through her tears and didn't give a damn how or why, she had her kid back. He was confused but she didn't care at this point.

"I don't know, Dee, I don't know, and I don't care!" She cried and pulled him into a hug and held him tight and sobbed in relief. "You almost left me, Kiddo..." She whimpered softly. "You scared me..." She said, so low that only he would hear.

Arella watched as the boy sat back up, and the black-haired girl embraced him tightly. She was so sure that he had been bitten- and a bite meant death. But there he was, tears welling up in his eyes and looking very much alive. Everyone was gathering in a cluster, watching as the boy got to his feet. The relieved expression on his companion's face made Arella smile a little, but the loud groan of a zombie distracted her and she gripped the handle of the knife.

"The kid is fine, But if we don't keep moving, none of us will be alive for much longer." she started back down the alley, aware of the group as they followed. The Zs were coming, quickly, and her gaze lit upon a disused, but rather sturdy looking fire escape. "Let's get to high ground." She hoisted herself up onto a discarded crate and leapt for the ladder. She caught the very last rusted metal rung, and the ladder clanked as it descended. "Everyone, up, now!" she said, waving the rest of the group forward. Scooping up a large stone, she hurled it at an approaching Z, and the corpse fell back. The boy was the last up the ladder, and Arella managed a glance at his arm. There was a bite mark, clear as day, still bloody. It made no sense. By all accounts, the boy should already be a Z, undead and craving their flesh. But as he scrabbled up onto the first level after the others, his movements were fluid and alive, nothing like the jerky motions of the Zs amassing at the mouth of the alley. Arella pulled herself up onto the platform and started to haul the ladder back up into place.

"We can get through the building. There's an abandoned apartment next door that I know for sure is safe." She glanced at the window next to her. She couldn't see into the building past all of the grime and dirt, but she thought she could hear the shuffling of corpses inside. "There shouldn't be too many Zs in here... If we get past them, it's a straight shot next door." Arella looked at the group- everyone was ragged and looked exhausted, but they still had the flames of a fight burning in their eyes. "Do you think that we can do this?" She asked.

Izumi Tachikawa

Izumi watched closely as it was discovered that Derek had been bitten. The dark haired young woman was in great distress as she should be. Anyone bitten by a zombie was fated to become one. But the boyโ€™s symptoms were drastically different. He was showing signs of the vaccine that Izumi originally created before the virus was affixed to it. Izumi smiled as this boy had proven that there was indeed hope of counteracting the virus. Perhaps Izumi had a chance to make things right. But that all depended on protecting this child.

Another thought crossed Izumiโ€™s mind, that was Simmonsโ€ฆ If Simmons found out about Derek, heโ€™d want to procure him and either test on him to create an even stronger and deadlier virus or kill the boy so that no one could produce a cure for it. Izumi realized that he needed to keep the kid safe but that wouldnโ€™t be easy due to the boyโ€™s obvious lack of trust in everyone but the dark haired woman. Izumi decided to keep this little miracle from Simmonsโ€™ attention for now. Who knows if there are other survivors that are similar to Derekโ€™s case.

The Zombies poured into the ally and they needed an escape. As the others climbed up the fire escape Izumi grappled up to the top of the fire escape. The brunet informed the group that she knew of a safe place. However there was still a little fighting ahead before they reach said place. Izumi wasnโ€™t so bad off from the last scuffle so he was alright to continue. โ€œIโ€™m fine to continue forward.โ€ Izumi said with a quick smile. He turned toward Derek, โ€œYouโ€™re one walking miracle if Iโ€™ve ever saw one young man. With blood like that running through you, you could be the answer to a lot of this insanity. However donโ€™t think you can sail easy. Just because you canโ€™t be turned doesnโ€™t mean you canโ€™t be killed. Just donโ€™t become careless okay.โ€ Izumi said to Derek gently as he smiled. Derek sparked a bit of hope in Izumi that he had not felt in some time.

Izumi also did not forget his other task and that was to test out another strand of the Z-virus on a few survivors. On him he carried a few syringes that held strands of the 2nd stage Z-Virus. These would turn any human into something far worse than any normal zombie. It would most likely be far more grotesque and deadly. Izumi himself didnโ€™t know what exactly would happen. He really hated that he had to administer such a disgusting thing to anyone but his arm was still being twisted by his lover Fredrick Simmons. One thing Izumi decided was that he would not use the test formulas on the group he was traveling with and try his best to look after them. However anyone that tried to cross the group would find themselves a more suitable candidate for monster-hood.

Izumi pulled out his hand held computer and began typing a message. โ€œIt looks like someone is toying with the survivors in a very sick way here. We were set up and someoneโ€™s audible voice presented the situation via recording like a game show challenge. You didnโ€™t have anything to do with this did you Simmons? If so, I might have to rebel a bit.โ€ Izumi sent the message.

Simmonsโ€™ reply was prompt. โ€œUnfortunately my love that was not of my doing so you must be extra careful from here on out. It seems other forces are at work here. Whoever set that up must be trying to run their own experiments on the survivors, the more bitten the easier it is to find an anomaly among them. Was anyone bitten in the group Izumi?โ€ Simmons asked in the message.

Izumi thought for a second. Should he lie to Simmons or be honest and risk making Derek into a target? โ€œNo, everyone made it out without a scratch fortunately. Sorry Love.โ€ Izumi opted to lie to Simmons about Derekโ€™s bite.

โ€œAlright. Remain as vigilant as always kitten. I shall make my appearance to the BCMOโ€™s Canadian Headquarters and set up phase two. I love you Izumi.โ€ The messages deleted promptly and Izumi continued onward with the group. Things would become more difficult than he originally figured they would it seems.

Derek was at a loss for words still. Granted he couldn't speak still, which annoyed him, because everything else healed (even the slight pain in his foot he had been ignoring for the past week). However, Izumi was partially right. Derek could never be turned, by the virus or any of it's spin off strains. However, it did make it harder to kill him in a way. He can never die to zombies, not unless they completely devoured him. He could still die though to gunshots and what not, though if he was injected with infected blood soon enough after death, it could revive him. Derek wasn't immortal, but he had a far better hence then anyone else in the group. Seeing as how he did not have symbols for half the things he wanted to say, he took out his notebook, flipped to the last page, and wrote something, and showed it to them. "So apparently I am immune to the virus. In fact, it healed everything except my voice. So apparently the virus heals me. Now, can we get out of here before this guy tries to kill us again?"

The silence was soon broken again by the psycho. "What the...what the fuck! You got bit! You were infected! Why the fuck are you not dead?! You're supposed to be dead boy! You cheated! No one cheats in my competitions! No one fucking cheats me!! You know what happens to fucking cheaters?! They get eliminated!! Fucking cheater!!! You are getting eliminated!!"

Whoever this psychopath was, it seemed Derek's immunity drove him further insane. Derek took out his bow, and loaded an arrow. He wasn't able to get them all back from before however, so he only had 34 now. He could not see this guy, but he quickly realized they were out in the open on a roof, and he could attack from anywhere. We need to move, quickly...

(I am so sorry I really have had a lot on my plate and just put other rps first. Forgive me :c )



Image



This guy seemed way to formal to even provoke any kind of respect inside Tyler. On the other hand, one side of him was most certainly missing company but this odd stranger was unable to throw him a 'hey what's up?' or even speak with a normal tone of voice. He was not compatible for a alliance with a youth like Tyler.

โ€œI understand your apprehension in trusting me. But what you said about people testing on survivors is news to me. No one has been allowed authorized entry into this country for about five years now. Proposition 54 was just passed yesterday. So anyone whoโ€™s entered this country between five years ago and yesterday, without authorization, is suspect. What have you heard regarding this, do you know anything more?โ€


"Of course I don't trust you, you just wandered up to me with a formal creepy introduction and not even so much as a casual hello. You called me Sir for gods sake. I don't care if this is your job you just make me want to vomit." Tyler explained to the man with a growl. He then began to chew on a mint leaf he always kept in his back pockets, which could not have been too safe as nobody new what the z virus was exactly able to harm.

"Are you saying that I should not trust anyone? Now that is talking some sense." Tyler chuckled darkly. "I have seen people be taken in white vans, and that is what passed friends told me they were doing with the victims. I don't know anything more and I never followed the vans. I don't know what is worse... being cut up and experimented on or being walking dead."

"My name is Tyler Jackson. If I came with you, where would you take me?"

Yagami Asakusa, Darren Evans


Yagami listened to the young man as they stood on the rooftop. This guy was somewhat strange. He should have taken Darrenโ€™s warning a bit more seriously. However he took it to heart now.

"Of course I don't trust you, you just wandered up to me with a formal creepy introduction and not even so much as a casual hello. You called me Sir for godโ€™s sake. I don't care if this is your job you just make me want to vomit." Tyler explained to the Yagami with a growl. He then began to chew on a mint leaf he always kept in his back pocket.

"Are you saying that I should not trust anyone? Now that is talking some sense." Tyler chuckled darkly. "I have seen people be taken in white vans, and that is what passed friends told me they were doing with the victims. I don't know anything more and I never followed the vans. I don't know what is worse... being cut up and experimented on or being walking dead." The young man said.

"My name is Tyler Jackson. If I came with you, where would you take me?" Tyler asked.

Yagami replied. โ€œLet me start over. Hi Iโ€™m Yagami Asakusa, you can call me Yagami. Nice to meet you Tyler. Thanks for the information you shared with me.โ€ Yagami sighed and then looked up at Tyler. โ€œItโ€™s not that Iโ€™m saying you canโ€™t trust anyone but simply be careful of anyone who says that theyโ€™ve entered the quarantine area during the time that it was closed off from the outside world. Iโ€™m here to find survivors like you rescue them. If you went with me, we would search around for others and then head to the extraction point where weโ€™d be taken to the BCMO labs. There youโ€™d be inspected for possible infection and then youโ€™d be released in a program that helps to rebuild your life to normalcy. You shouldnโ€™t worry about the virus inspection, I had gone through it myself when I escaped the bombings. Itโ€™s not so bad.โ€

The two began to head across the rooftops. As the two walked Yagami thought he had better explain the floating metal orb that followed him about. โ€œOh yeah, this small floating metal orb is a com device that allows my partner, Agent Darren Evans to see whatโ€™s going on around me and he communicates with me as well. So if Iโ€™m talking into my ear piece thatโ€™s what going on. So no need for alarm.โ€ Yagami spotted another group of people a little ways away. They didnโ€™t look like zombies but Yagami had not encountered the zombies since he escaped the US with Darren and Darrenโ€™s family five years ago. โ€œIt seems there are other survivors up ahead. Letโ€™s meet up with them shall we.โ€

Yagami and Tyler caught up with the group and tried to flag their attention. However they heard a loud voice over some form of loud speaker. "What the...what the fuck! You got bit! You were infected! Why the fuck are you not dead?! You're supposed to be dead boy! You cheated! No one cheats in my competitions! No one fucking cheats me!! You know what happens to fucking cheaters?! They get eliminated!! Fucking cheater!!! You are getting eliminated!!"

Yagami was cautious and held his arm out in front of Tyler signaling that they shouldnโ€™t approach any further until they scoped things out. โ€œI donโ€™t know who or whatโ€™s going on but it doesnโ€™t sound like something we want to rush into blindly. Can you defend yourself well? We may be in for a fight Tyler.โ€ Yagami said while scanning the situation before him. Yagami cocked his gun and prepared for trouble.

Once an Item has been created, it can be spawned in the IC using /spawn Item Name (case-sensitive, as usual) — this can be followed with /take Item Name to retrieve the item into the current character's inventory.

Mobs

Give your Universe life by adding a Mob, which are auto-replenishing NPCs your players can interact with. Useful for some quick hack-and-slash fun!

Mobs can be automated spawns, like rats and bats, or full-on NPCs complete with conversation menus. Use them to enhance your player experience!

Current Mobs

No mobs have been created yet.

Spawns

Locations where Mobs and Items might appear.

Events

You can schedule events for your players to create notifications and schedule times for everyone to plan around.

Permissions

Add and remove other people from your Universe.

Orphanage

By marking a character as abandoned, you can offer them to your players as pre-made character sheets.
