Introduction
WELCOME TO THE CITY OF THE DAMNED
BIENVENIDOS A LA CIUDAD DE LOS CONDENADOS
欢迎到地狱
In the year 2018, the euro collapsed, leaving the entire European Union on its knees, crippled with debt. An emergency summit was called, and the decision was made. Europe would unite as one nation. Representatives from each former country would become part of the new European Government.
In 2060, the United Union found itself in more debt than ever. It owed billions to China, Russia, and various countries and dictatorships in the Middle East. They owed the most money to the United States of America. A secret agreement was arranged, and the UU would swear complete allegiance to the US.
2065. The United Union is merged with the United States of America along with various other countries. The new American Empire controls almost 49% of the world, making the largest and most powerful empire in the history of the world.
2090. Treaties signed with China, the new Japanese Empire, the African Alliance and various other world powers. Project Clarify was put into action across the globe. New cities with top-class facilities for everyone were built alongside the old. Places were secured for the majority of the world's population. Poverty was at an end. Crime was set to hit an all time low. Humankind has reached a new age of peace and prosperity.
2100. It started with criminals. They were refused entry to the new cities, forced to remain in the abandoned old world. Then it grew to those of us who didn't fit in. Those of us deemed not intelligent, those who needed excessive care and eventually it spread to those of us who weren't seen to be attractive. Last of all, those of us who just didn't fit in, because we were gay, because we dressed differently, because we were a little eccentric, because we had any little flaw were thrown out onto the ruins of what used to be America.
This is the year 2115. As far as the 'clean' are concerned, they are celebrating twenty-five years of no poverty, low crime rates and the perfect life. The truth is that they are being drugged, kept oblivious to the true nature of their 'Leaders'. They live like kings, likening themselves to Gods and telling the people that it is for their own good. We are branded as a threat to this so called perfection, so they spread propaganda and encourage people to alert the authorities if they even suspect that we might have infiltrated Soviety.
We on the outside have struggled to survive, with limited water and food supplies, gang wars and random attacks and executions by the Empire's police force.
There is a group of us within one of the Old Cities. We are not very big, but we are growing. We are kept together by the last pirate radio station in the world -- 711. Headed by two rebels with the titles [i]Hollow-point and Dusk they are stirring things up with a volatile cocktail of music, speeches and general rebelliousness and working with the rebel leaders Saint, and his second-in-command and rumored lover, Angel.
What will you do, punk? You gotta remember we are all a bunch of criminals and animals at best, and with the police attacks growing, things are getting a hell of a lot more dangerous around these parts.
So grab your gun and hit the streets before the streets hit you, bitch.
--- SCAM
9/11 Presenter, Patriot and friend.
Arrested four months ago on Terrorism charges, executed for Crimes against Society
--------------------
Oi, you. Yeah you. Ya look kinda lo— 'ang on, someone already stole your stuff? Eh, tough luck kid. Ya know, I kinda feel sorry for ya. You don't look like most of the shits around here. How bout I gives ya a few pointers?
The people you want t'be in with? You're kiddin', right? This ain't no playground. But if you're looking to find some friends tha' will keep ya safe 'nough, I'dda join the so-called rebels.
Saint is the man who runs the joint. Alright kid, if you ask me. If it weren't for him, people 'round here would be a hell of a lot less okay. 'E gives 'em somethin' to hope for. He's supposed to sort out any troublemakers who go too far as well. Ain't God though, as ya know.
Course there's the rumour that he's sleeping around with his lieutenant, Angel. Something 'bout the he looks at her, and she looks at 'im, ya know there's somethin' goin' on.
Angel, now she's a sweetheart. Not that you'd know lookin' at her though, and the way she handles that gun of hers... She's second in command for Saint, but ya get the feelin' sometimes that the crowd is a little more loyal to her than they are to 'im. There was a rumour a little while back tha' Angel was originally one of them Citizens and she ran away after she met Saint. Tha' was before everyone began to start thinking they was more than colleagues or mates, ya catch my drift.
You'll be needing to acquire a radio of some kind too. 711, they got some kind of new presenter at night now.
Hollow-Point and Dusk are the two kids on 711.
Dusk seems like a nice gal. She prefers playin' music to the talkin' rubbish. I thinks that's why the most folks seem to like 'er better. She's keeping a level 'ead and keeping everythin' goin' smoothly.
Hollow-Point is more aggressive. He got kicked out of Society... for sleepin' wi' other guys. Eh, not that there isn't nothing wrong wi' tha' kinda thing. But he's a big supporter of Saint an' Angel, and wha' they're doin'. He's on later, stirring things up towards night time.
'Ang on, does that look like... Fuck, it's the rats. Don't run, walk wi' me.
The Police don't 'ave uniforms, no sirens or nothing like they 'ave in your pretty little world, sunshine. They just pull up and grab a couple of us. count yourself lucky if they shoot to kill. I got meself shot in the shoulder for lookin' at one of 'em. Sometime's they'll jus' bundle ya into a van an' yer never seen again.
RUN GODDAMNIT!

Low to High.
Low would be a timid, subdued person who has little to no experience with weaponry, and probably got chuckled out of Society for a speeding ticket, or not paying library fines.
Mid-Level threats would be the likes of the 711 presenters, or average outlaws. They may possess weapons, and command a certain level of influence, but are not violent and have not committed any 'serious' crimes. Drug users, thieves, thugs, and lower-class drug dealers would be in this bracket.
High threat offenders would be the likes of Saint, Angel and their more enthusiastic followers, or criminals such as serial murders, rapists and arms dealers.

With speed greater than his relaxed demeanor suggested, he closed the distance between himself and Catherine before sweeping a kick beneath her feet, catching her off balance as he flicked out his plasma knife. When she landed on the ground he held it up to her neck.
"Are you done yipping like a small dog yet? You ought to learn that appearances can be deceiving," he told her with a light grin, "Perhaps this was all an act to lower your guard. People expect the Saint to be a larger than life figure with flames huffing out of his nostrils and thunder coming out of his ass when he lets one off. They do not expect him to walk around the streets like a normal person, eat like normal person, and bloody fuck like a normal person.
He grinned over at Angel at the last part, "Well, that last part isn't true. He fucks like bloody legend, but I digress. I am just a normal person. That's why the Society fears me. I'm a normal person that got tired of being fucked around by them."
He grinned, putting away his knife and offering her his hand, "Welcome to our little group, Miss Catherine. You're not Society, that's for sure. But please refrain from crude overtures to my lieutenant. I will not hold her liable for the terrible, painful death she would inflict upon you if you did."

He was going to kill her for opening her mouth and saying something stupid like she did. Catherine flinched slightly at his vulgar language, and utter horror engulfed her when Saint glanced backwards at his lieutenant and all the while kept a smile on his face.
The realisation that this was normal for them hit her like a brick. They didn't need to be serious, they dealt with potential spies all the time.
Even when Saint offered out his hand to her and removed the knife, Catherine found herself shaking and unable to move. She was unsure if he was kidding or not. Cautiously she took his hand. "I apologise if I have indeed offended you or your... Lieutenant."

"There's no need. People have said worse. I'm sorry for scaring you. Know that I was only trying to prove a point. Appearances can be deceiving. But you don't need to worry. As long as you are true to our side, I will look after you. I'll even gladly lay down my life for you," he told her honestly, his green eyes shifting over their new ally seriously, "I'm a terrible enemy, true. But if you've done no wrong, you don't need to fear me."
He glanced at Angel and asked, a bit self-consciously, "Do you think I overdid that? I hope I didn't."

Only when Saint was finished with her did Angel step forward, offering Catherine out her hand as well. "My uncle was a doctor in Society. I picked up a few things from him, you know." Angel was smiling, but she didn't disguise the veiled threat either.
The girl was seriously shaken up; she was still trembling. Saint seemed concerned quickly, making an attempt to comfort her, and then looking for some reassurance for himself. Angel frowned. "A little. No blood, nobody got shot or collapsed, and nobody was arrested, which is a turn up, but she's still a Society girl. Britian is officially independent, but it's a façade really." Angel said honestly. "I still would have expected a bit more bite from you though, especially with in information you say you have."

She finally stopped trembling in time for the lieutenant to address her directly. "I grew up in a rather privileged house, so although I never was exposed to violence, I was privy to information."

"The plans are going to be useful, but how can we get the British rebels here? Or, how do we coordinate an attack with them?" he asked, half to them, half to himself. If they could communicate with the British, then maybe they could share information and attack any shipping between here and Britain. They might even be able to steal some useful technology.

She frowned as Saint asked her on what the next step would be. She was still trying to gather up her nerves after the earlier attack and she'd expected to have a little longer to plan and think.
"I still have contact with my mother; she's got some sway in the cells at home. If we can make contact with her, we could liason with them."
Almost as an afterthought, she pulled a small, palm-sized device out of her bra (seeing as she had nowhere else to put it at the time) and threw it in Saints direction. "The plans. 3D model projection. It might make more sense to you than it did for me."

She snatched Catherine's device out of mid-air, studying it for moment. She smiled, punching a couple of buttons before the screen flickered to life, forming the 3D model of the new PKs.
"They fixed the structural problem with the knee joints, putting diamond into the inner workings for reinforcement and upgrading their AI, not that they had much in the first place. and increasing firepower." Angel moved a little closer to Saint, pointing out the potential weak points on the machine. "But as far as I can tell, nothing's been done to the weakness in the shoulder joints, and they're still as slow and clumsy as ever."
She paused for a moment to hitch back up her camisole which irritatingly had started to slide a little. Clearing her throat, the dark-haired woman carried on. "There's a limited amount of ports and airports they can use, but we don't want them to get that far. I'm sure we can find you safe means of reaching your mother and your comrades."
