Merlin sprints to the bus and leaps on top of it. "Merlin Young, good to meet someone that doesn't cover me in goo." he said shaking his hand.

"Too true, id introduce you too my friend here but i don know his name myself" turning to the ally he asks, "what is ur name anyway?"

Hmmm I really sense an event coming, very soon in fact.

"I am Subject Delta " Subject Delta taps is mask and nods.

PLAYER EVENT


Suddenly two tanks drop from the ship, holding a human boy of about 14, who has his hands up to his face, and is shaking uncontrollably. One of the tanks says to him something about “using his powers”, but it is unreadable because of the tanks speech. The boy then reveals his face. His face is scarred all over, with black veins showing under his flesh, his eyes are red.

“No, stay away from me!” he screams. “Stay away from me!!!”

The boy suddenly screams, and everybody nearby is pushed back, the ground shakes and huge cracks start to form in it, the alien ship starts shaking around, and explosions send it then falling, crashing down into the ground. All the buildings around start to fall apart, and falling rocks start smashing into the wrecked pavement. One of the cracks starts enlarging, and threatens to swallow Merlin, he tries to escape but is pushed back by some falling debris, and falls into the crack.

Terence tries to push himself further to the boy.

“Stop this you’ll kill us all!” he shouts to the boy.

“I-I-I-I-I cant!!!” he screams. “Aaaaarrrggh!!!”

The boy continues to scream, and it starts getting louder, and louder, and louder. Terence tries to maintain his balance but fails to. He is slung towards the sky, and is sent miles back.

Subject Delta whispers to himself,

“It’s the end of the world. What’d’ya know?”

Before he also loses his balance and is sent crashing through wrecked skyscrapers, before finally setting in one, and he loses consciousness.
The tanks are dead by now, and the boy suddenly vanishes, his tears still as a puddle on the floor. Just a whisper remaining,

"It has begun. Soon I will be free."

(Oh, dead already? Bummer)

No you ain't dead don't worry I ain't that harsh

I would just like to mention that nobody is dead

"Well this sucks" Claims Subject Delta
"I say we blow this popsicle stand and get the Feth out a hear." Subject Delta

By the way your alone

EDIT:
And Garth comes trudging along,still puffin' on his smoke,saying:" What the hell happened here?" And walked a bit further and noticed the unconscious body of Terence. Taking out his Canteen,dripped some water on Terence's face,waking him up.
And Terence asked:"Who are YOU?" Garth:"God" Terence looked at him with a expresion that said: Wha..?
Garth laughed."Im just bull crapin' ya," he said "Now come on,we gotta get outta here by the looks of it..."

Um, I did say the tank was dead.

And subject delta is unconscious in the top of a skyscraper, some blocks away.

oh,my apologize.

Subject Delta awaiks.
"What the hell am I doing up hear!"

No problem.

Merlin opens his eyes. All around him he sees blackness. Then slowly pictures flash around him. First they are unclear but slowly they form into his memories. They flash by faster and faster. All around him his life was replaying itself.

Suddenly a bright light envelops it all and Merlin feels as if he opens his eyes again. He gasps for air and looks around startled. He is strapped to a table-like object in a weird, deformed room. He looks to his left and sees a window. He struggles to get his head as high as possible to look through it. He could see the burning city.

"Gak, I must be on one of their ships." he mumbled to himself. He looked down and noticed that his arms were strapped to the table at the elbow. He reached for his combat knife and slowly pulled it from his belt. He cut his legs loose and then freed his arms.

He got up and walked over to the window. He rammed his knife against it. "Rock solid, must be some kind of xenos glass. " he said.

He reached into his pocket and took out one of his grenades, duct taped it to the window and pulled the pin. He stepped back as far as he could and covered his ears. The grenade blew the window and part of the wall out. He could feel the entire ship shudder and slightly roll. He ran for the hole in the side and leaped out.

As he fell he could see the alien ship roll over and crash into a skyscraper. Not knowing how he would land he looked down and prayed...

Subject Delta jumps off the Building as the Alien Ship crashes into it and lands on a smaller building.

Merlin falls past the small building and drops through a tree into a bush. He lies on his back in the bush covered in bruises, leaves, and twigs.

Subject Delta is able to get to low ground and soon spots Merlin.

How the heck did you get on one of thier ships? I said you fell into the crack. Ah well, could you at least explain how you got on there?

The crack teleported me into one of their ships

I thought you where in a tree. Can you teleport me?

I'm talking about the crack earlier, the one that threw you into the skyscraper. I'm still in a bush

"Damm , must find allys " Subject Delta looks into the Distance "A ship"

Ah k But I do hope this ship was NOT the one that blew up when the boy screamed

Merlin gets out of the bush and dusts off his jacket with his hands. "Hey! Delta was it? C'mere!" he says

"Hello unamed ally" Subject Delta greets Merlin

"The name's Merlin, Merlin Young. What's your name? Subject delta doesn't seem such a proper one doesn't it?" Merlin says to Delta

"Jack the Ripper" Says Subject Delta

"Haha, I guess I'll call you that then. So, do you know anything about these aliens? Any intel or something?" Merlin says
