Well,he received several gunshot wounds,and had the bullets removed with a spoon and kitchen knife by a nurse with a hippy assistant,so normally he wouldn't be up and dancing anytime soon.

However,Bonzo isn't exactly normal...so..I'd imagine you could RP him regaining consciousness in your next RP,I just wouldn' have him trying to juggle his saws just yet

OOC: Ninja'd by Silver and caught in the lag.

Jennifer lay back in the bed,unable to sleep,her mind kept racing.

" My Father is still alive." She thought " All these years I thought he was gone...and he was still alive"

The revelation both angered her and filled her with a longing to see him again.

She supposed she understood the logic of her Fathers actions,in truth,she admited to herself,he had been very clever...Faking his own death and employing an army of vicious bikers as his personal guard...but then,her Father had always been a clever one.

She continued turning things over in her head,she wanted to go get that biker,Tombstone and demand he take her to her Father this instant...or at least find out about his condition,but she relized that the biker wasn't the type of person she could order around,she would wait...she would talk to him again later.

Her thoughts turned to Ashton,even though he was her body guard,she and Ashton had grown quite close over the years,she had always known that no matter what Ashton would be there for her...now,she didn't know.

That man,the one chained to the chair in the kitchen and the woman Keria,both had said Ashton would die if his arm didn't come off..but then again,they also said he may die even if it did.

" Please let him be ok." She whispered,and closed her eyes attempting to sleep.

Why do you always call Keira "Keria", Tombstone?

Day 4 seems good, Silver. Pretty much what I was thinking. I think it's time someone/you PM'd cereal, as his house would be pretty much a rubber duck in a sea of zombies by now. Yay similies. Anyway, still got to bring [insert silly nickname here] into the story

FITZZ knows what I'm talking about..

Also, guys, over the course of Day 3, I'll have to do a lot of long RP's (or just one or two long ones) showing you all around.. hm. Do that tomorrow, if I can. Until then, perhaps this'd be a good time for y'all to have your characters go sleepy time and describe their thoughts, and what they think? IMO it's a good idea. Also, you can all relieve each other on watch duty whenever. Just say Shadow buggered off to his bed when Halon vacates it.

Night all.

I think Tombstone calls Keira "Keria" because of a slight speech impediment ....no wait..it's my crap spelling again.

Bonzo woke up suddenly, he felt much, much better, he still had a slight warm tingling sensation and a hell of a lot of pain where he realized the bullets had gone in but compared to his shaky in and out of unconsciousness and what he thought had been bliss, this was better. For once in his life he felt relatively peaceful, he had no commitments, he had no goals to meet and best of all he thought, he had no money to make!

Giggling as he got up from the settee, he make his way to the kitchen, walking towards the fridge, he opened the door, rooting around for food and a drink. He fished out some cooked ham from the back of the box and tore into it ravenously, he hadn't eaten properly for days, he supposed Tom didn't count and took swigs from a half empty bottle of beer. Seeing some eggs, he plucked three out of the shell and began to juggle them absent mindedly as he made his way back to the lounge.

Finding Shadow on his way back, he sneaked up behind him as only a clown can,

"Hey Bonzo, how things going" Replied Shadow, looking apprehensively at the juggling clown.

"It'S SwINgs AnD RouNDaBouts BuT MosTLY ChOCOlate MiCE!!" Muttered Bonzo as he walked past, casually making the eggs disappear mid air as he went, giggling to himself as he pulled off the magic trick.

Finding his way back to the lounge, he laid out the eggs on the arm of the sofa, he stroked them "GoOdNighT My PreTTIES!" Before sinking into the folds of the settee and descending into a deep slumber, in his mind, he pictured a fairground, full of clockwork toys, whirring, buzzing, falling over. He was the only one alive in the midst of this clockwork medley and he felt wonderful, screaming at the top of his voice as he soared over the scene on the big wheel.

"I'M ThE HAPPiEST CloWN THaTS EvER BeeN!"

Keira yawned sleepily. Tom had long since fallen asleep, but she'd kept awake, holding his hand tight. She stood up, stretched like a cat, and wandered through the house. Bonzo was asleep, curled up sucking his thumb. She smiled.

Wandering along, she felt the familiar rub on her legs from earlier. The small cat purred and looked at her through crystel eyes.

"Hey kitty." She murmured, before Keira climbed the stairs. People were sleeping in every room, and taking advantage of their slumber, she quickly checked each of them over. K and Vikky were unscratched. Even K's amputation scar had healed perfectly. Must of had a good doctor. She moved on into the next room, where she found Ashton slumbering. Again, she checked the amputation injury. It wasn't pretty, but it would heal over time. The next room had Jennifer, asleep. A couple of minor cuts, she'd check them out in the morning. Sighing to herself, Keira wandered back downstairs, and went outside. The moon shone bright, and the world was bathed in the blue light. She watched unseeing for a couple of minutes, before she sat down, and began to cry to herself.

Upstairs, Shadow heard her sorrow.

Glancing out of the window, Shadow saw the woman, Keira, sobbing in the darkness.

"Hey."
Keira turned and looked up, surprised. "Oh. It's you."

"I'm on first watch. Why don't you close that door and come up here? I could use the company.. a sleeping Halon isn't too good with the conversations" he joked.

Keira considered the offer, then glanced up again at the window with the huge gun sticking out of it, to reply to the head accompanying it.

Tombstone opened his eyes and quickly glanced around the room.

He watched as Keira entered the front room from outside,she paused and once more checked on Bonzo.

The biker closed his eyes again,thinking about what probably lay in store for Tom,the man had been bitten by one of those things and was obviously suffering from some sort of infection that was killing him...once he died,he would "come back".

Tombstone shook his head lightly,Tom had pointed a gun at him when he had moved to finish Patrick,pointing a gun at the biker was normally a quick way to commit suicide...but now...even though Tombstone knew that the man was for all purposes dead already,he was apprehensive to just shoot the man.

Tombstone opened his eyes again,perhaps talking with the woman..Keira might help,the biker would explain to her that shooting Tom may be for the best...the biker looked around the room...Keira had disappeared.


The biker shrugged,he would talk with her later,but first he would speak with Shadow,"Solider boy will understand."

Tombstone felt a light kiss on his neck.

" You awake?" Daisy said looking up at the biker.

" Bright eyed and bushy tailed" Tombstone said.

"Good." she smiled " Come with me...but shhh"

"Shh" Tombstone thought with a laugh.

Daisy led him into a small side room,in it was a few boxes of clothing,a case or two of various books,a small table,and a mattress on the floor.

Daisy closed the door and turned to Tombstone.

" I found the clothes I changed into in here" she said,slowly stepping closer to the biker and pulling off his jacket.
" I also thought I could thank you more properly in here as well" she smiled.

She pulled off her own T-shirt and pushed Tombstone onto the mattress.

Tombstone looked up at her thinking she looked absolutely beautiful " You can thank me all you want." He grinned.

Daisy smiled slipping out of her Fatigues " I intend to."she said as she joined Tombstone on the mattress,pulling him to her and kissing him passionately.

Tombstone embraced the young woman tightly " I may die tommorow" he thought " but at least I can feel loved tonight."...

The two fell back to the bed....

And as a guest in another person's house, how rude.

Oh, and Halon tells jokes in his sleep.

Gonna do some RPing soon.. and when I do.. time to stop Vikky's "diet".. eating spree.. whatever..


One question, Drk O, why a panda?

lol, sorry, I'll fix it in a sec

It's a really long story, so I'll just say it's court ordered.

OOC:Shadow opened the closet-thingy and saw Tombstone and Daisy. "OMG WTF" he said, before grabbing a flamethrower and torching them.

OOC- At which point Bonzo see's this, shouts "THINK OF THE CHILDREN" And begins to just end the whole affair. Gotta have some morals or a line you wont cross somewhere. ^^

...Speaking of that,did Keira go up stairs to "talk" with Shadow,or into the kitchen to see Tom,I sort of need to know before I post my next RP.

Erm. I hadn't really decided.

Dude, if dark and keira bump buoys in that bed Halon's going on 24 hour watch duty or finding a couch to sleep on. Plus, Halon's kind of C-blocking Shadow right now as I doubt they will get it on while someone's sleeping in the same room.

We're on the top floor, they're on the bottom. In a closet. Making noise.

And please take note that that post was

Obv that didn't happen, simpletons. Tbh, I can't tell which of you guys actually got that I was jk or thought that I actually meant that.

Keira is heading upstairs, according to FITZZ I believe, who RP'd her coming in and going upstairs.

Ghosty, over to you for the next IC post.

I dunno if i can be bothered atm.

Not trying to pressure you. Do it whenever you want, it seems that most of us aren't bothered as noone's posting.. then again, it is kinda up to me 'n' you to move it along a bit until it's time for Halon to wake up and so on. But I can't write what Keira thinks.

God damnit, I sound pressurizing in this post.. totally not what I was going for. (this new emote is just SO useful.. although I'm not sure that's a good sign.. )

I would RP but I think my character is done for the night, just a little exploit but enough and it'd be a bit weird for me to get up again, unless of course you guys really want me to RP something. ^^

And then suddenly, zombies everywhere. Tom turned into a boomer and began eating the kitchen. Everybody stared in horror as he soon began vomiting all over them and attracting zombies to them. All was lost.

Halon then grabbed a hammer and pointed it to the sky and flew into the air. The sky shined with such a radiance that everyone, even the zombies, stood in awe at the majesty of what had just happened. Halon had come prepared though, he had sunglasses and his sunglasses protected him from the glare and he quickly began pummeling the zombies with his mighty hammer. Infected blood poured on the ground as whole swaths were cut through the horde of undead flesh.

Just as the last zombie died, the dead undead corpses began flowing together to form a giant, gross, rotten, gigazombie. The others began running in circles holding their hands to their heads while screaming, except for Bonzo who was still unconscious.

Halon began his swooping attack on the giant giga zombie and battered it with a barrage of back beatings, severing several spinal spaces. The giga-zombie began to fall as it no longer had a spine to support it and fell down with a mighty thunder, crushing undead Patrick who had just found his undead grenade launcher. The giga zombie was not done as it began to burrow to earth's core. Halon grabbed the giga zombie and threw it into space, directly into the sun, killing the sun, but turning the zombie into a giant ball of gas that turned into a new sun.

The world was saved and as Halon gave a huge thumbs up to the camera, the crowd went wild.

Ghosty, over to you for the next IC post.

I completely got that you were joking around Dark ...I actually imagined the suprised faces of Tombstone and Daisy as Shadow Barbqued them though.. .

Now as for Keira,I Rp'd Tombstone watching her come back in the house...but...he closed his eyes again for a moment and when he opened them she was gone, I did that so Ghosty could RP "wich way Keira went",as I didn't want to have Keira going up to talk with Shadow if Ghosty wanted her to go to check on Tom.

After she had cried her last tears, she wand red back inside, back to Tom. If this was his last hours, she would stay with him until the end.

Tombstone opened his eyes,he wasn't sure quite how long he had been asleep,but he felt much better.

Daisy lay sleeping besides him,her breathing easy and steady.

The biker looked at her for a long moment,stroking her hair,he thought about waking her,but decided he should go and check if it was his turn to take watch duty.

He pulled on his clothes and strapped on his weapons,he decided to leave one of his 9mm Berettas with Daisy...just in case.

He exited the room as quietly as he could,and moved silently through the house,glancing into the kitchen where Keira sat close to Tom,her eyes were puffy and red from crying.

Tombstone decided now wasn't the best time to discuss the possible need of shooting her man...so he moved on up the stairs.

After entering a few wrong rooms,he finally located Shadow,who was sitting in a chair next to a Gatling gun aimed out of a window covering the front of the house.

"Squirrel hunting?" Tombstone said with a grin.

" Bagged a dozen already" Shadow said " a couple of possums too...Halons going to grill 'em up for breakfast."

"The feth I am.." Halon muttered from the bed,and rolled over.

Tombstone pulled up a crate near Shadow and sat down, " Any sign of ..any of those things?"

" Did ya hear this big bastard talking?" Shadow said,indicating the Gatling gun.

Tombstone shook his head,getting his friends point.

" Speaking of hunting Easy rider" Shadow said " I'm guessing you hunted up the company of the fair Daisy "

Tombstone nodded.

" I thought so" Shadow said " I sort of heard her calling for god a few hours ago...I figured she probably wasn't praying."

Tombstone laughed "No...I suppose she wasn't"

Shadow looked seriously at the biker " Stone" he said " Do you think it's a good idea?"

Tombstone listened.

Shadow continued " Don't get me wrong man,she's a looker and all...but..is it worth the risk?" He went on " Let's be real man,she isn't like me or you...when the gak starts to fly...is she gonna be able to hold it together...or is she going to end up getting you killed because you were watching her pretty ass when you should have been watching out for your own."

" She'll hold it down" Tombstone said " She's tougher than you might think." the biker nodded at Shadow " Besides brother...yesterdays history and tomorrow's a mystery...all we really have is now."

Shadow looked at the biker " Your out of your mind man...been breathing to many Harley fumes"

Tombstone laughed " Yeah..I love you to G.I Joe"

" Shut the feth up and let me sleep" Halon said

The two men laughed at the frustration of their half slumbering comrade.

" You ready for me to take watch yet?" Tombstone asked.

"Not just yet." replied Shadow " in an hour or so."

" Cool" Tombstone said " In the meantime...you wouldn't happen to have a computer in this maze you call a house..would you?"

" Don't insult my palace you greasy feth" Shadow laughed " Yes,computer...next room..no porn surfing though..I believe you've had enough of...that...for the night."

" It's never enough" Tombstone smiled " ok..I'll be back in an hour".

" Feth off and go already" Halon said covering his head with a pillow.

" I'm going sunshine" Tombstone said

Halons hand came from under the pillow,his middle finger up in salute.

Tombstone exited the room laughing....

In the next room,Tombstone located the computer Shadow had said he'd find.

He sat at the small desk,logged on and quickly typed in an IM,the reciepient...OneEye...head of security at the mansion in wich Jennifer's Father was residing.


The following correspondence was sent.

TStone: Have Phoenixs Daughter,What's your situation?
1EyE: Stone? Knew you'd still be up and kicking,we got allot of Munchies at the door...But nothing we can't handle.
TStone: What's Phoenixs condition?
1EyE: Bitching and complaining..but still drawing breath.
TStone:Has he or anyone else been injured/bitten
1EyE: Phoenix hasn't..2 of our boys have,Munchies took some chomps out of them...but there ok.
TStone: Ice them.
1EyE: Stone..there fine..just a few little bites.
TStone: ICE THEM!!!,the bite carries the infection...there dead already.
1EyE: Brothers don't ice Brothers man.
TStone: They are going to die..come back..and kill you all...ICE THEM..NOW!!
1EyE: How sure are you?
TStone: 100%...Do it!.
1EyE: understood.
1EyE: Where are you anyway?
TStone: About 15 miles NW of the military base out here.
1EyE You need retrieval?
TStone:*****

The connection was lost.

" Feth" Tombstone muttered.

"Ok" He thought " At least I can tell the Princess that her old man is still safe...well,safe if that fething OneEye follows orders"

Tombstone sat staring at the screen,he lit a cigarette and waited for his time to relive Shadow.

The Hour went by fairly quickly,and Tombstone went to take his turn at watch.

The biker entered the "tower", as he had begun to think of the room with the Gatling gun "Get some sleep soldier boy...I'll keep watch now"

"Wish I could get some fething sleep" Halon groaned

" Want me to sing you a lullaby" Tombstone said grinning.

Halon popped his head out from under his pillow " Yes" he said " Sing me a lullaby...and jam your head up you arse when you do it...I'm sure you'll enjoy the acoustics."

All three men were silent for a brief moment,then all burst out laughing.

Tombstone finally broke the laughter," We need to discuss Tom".

Halon stared at the biker " What do you want to do...go downstairs and blow his face off?"

Shadow held up his hand " It's not a matter of what we want...it's what we're going to have to eventually do."

Halon snapped at the men " In case you two didn't notice,that man your talking about killing saved Ashtons life a few hours ago...he did something neither of you could have done."

Tombstone nodded " Your right" he said " but that doesn't change the fact that Toms been bitten".

"Damn right it doesn't" Shadow said.

" But" Tombstone interrupted " It's not so much what's going to have to happen to Tom...it's how it's going to affect his woman".

Shadow looked over at the biker " What are you getting at?"

" We need her Bro" Tombstone answered " Next to Tom,shes our main medic" the biker continued " If she goes ape gak on us...we could be in a serious gak storm".

" So what do you propose" Halon said staring at the biker.

" We have to talk with her" Tombstone said "Convince her it's the best thing to do"

" Your a heartless feth" Halon said shaking his head.

Tombstone stared at the man for a second " Heartless or not...it's the only answer I see."

Shadow spoke " If you think he's heartless,your going to think I'm the devil himself" he said.

Halon glanced over at Shadow "Whys that?"

Shadow sighed " I believe we should get her to be the one to do it".

"Your fethed" halon said " Get her to shoot the man she loves in the head?...no way...it's sick."

Shadow continued " If we can get her to see that it's a merciful thing...putting Tom out of his misery."

Halon interrupted " But it's not...not really,it's getting a woman to shoot her man...and somehow keep your own hands clean in the process."

" No" Tombstone said " none of our hands are clean..ever again".He looked at the other two men..."But,we need to talk with Keira...soon."

Shadow nodded " I'm going to go catch some sack time" he looked at Tombstone " You know how to use one of these" he pointed at the Gatling gun.

The biker smiled an evil smile.

" I should have known" Shadow nodded and left the room.

Tombstone took Shadows seat and stared out of the window.

In the bed next to him,Halon found it even more difficult to sleep as his thoughts turned to Tom and Keira.

Halon gave up. He sat up, rubbed his eyes and got out of the bed. All this talking and now new worries crossed into his mind. He did have a great dream though so at least he reached REM sleep for a bit until he had been rudely interrupted by Tombstone and Shadow talking about Tombstone's love life. If he did "love" that is.

He went to the bathroom and sat on the lid of the toilet thinking. An odd place to think, but a secluded one that no one would burst into.

"We can't do that, can we?" Halon thought. "One of us can shoot him, but she'll protest and maybe even hate us. If we have her shoot him she may hate herself. If there's one thing we need is another emotionally destroyed member in this group. Not only that, but she may hate all of us for forcing her to shoot him."

Halon had gotten up and pretended to wash his hands, he looked into the mirror and saw that he hadn't shaved and he had sideburns growing in.

"If she hates herself and hates all of us, all it takes is an automatic in her hands and..." he put his hands in a gun shape and put it to his head. The hand-gun cocked and fired.

He walked slowly back up to the garrison.

"Going back to bed honey?" Tombstone said barely taking his gaze from the area below.

"Nah," Halon said followed by a quick yawn, "I was just thinking about the situation ahead of us."

"And?" Tombstone "we need to deal with it, it's the best possible way."

"I dont think so." Halon said "We make her kill Tom and then she hates us AND herself. Sure she may hide it behind a face of toughness, but in the end she'll take a gun and waste us all, then herself."

"So we don't give her a gun or a weapon." Tombstone responded quickly.

"Then that shows we don't trust her and the same thing'll happen," Halon said slowly and leaned closer to Tombstone. "we make Keira kill Tom and Keira will kill us."

There was a moment of silence.

Next thing Halon knew, Tombstone had grabbed him by the collar and pulled him closer.

"Are you saying that I'm afraid of some little fething dame who probably couldn't even lift a handgun?" Tombstone asked angrily while still staring outwards.

"N-no" Halon replied almost worriedly.

"Good" Tombstone said slyly while grinning, the light casting shadows making his face look like a skull, Tombstone then pushed his fist back and Halon fell back onto the bed. "now nighty-night deary."

Halon wanted to say something witty, but he didn't think that this was the right time.
