"Not much but I made my hooks and Ken out of there metal. Plus I got some of there Weapons."

"Ah, their metal is strong indeed. Not strong enough to stop my grenades though!" Merlin says while showing one of his grenades to Delta.

Garth saunders up and says "ya,it's nice. But ya should get on of them Plasma Grenades. MUCH better."
"I wish,to know just who are you?" Subject Delta said.
"Well,I'm Garth Dowski. How ya do? Now can I ask you guys the same question?"

"I am Subject Delta wait havn't I all ready said that?"

"I don't know...But oh well." Said Garth,"But I gotta go-"
"No! You should stay with us,man." Merlin said "If you band up with us-"
"no thanks...I gotta go..." Garth insisted,"but feel free to come along,it may be intresting for ya"
"why is that?" Merlin asked,and Garth told them about going to the alien base.

"Hmm, I assume that an alien base means more xeno bastards to shoot? Count me in." Merlin said

I hope you do all remember that MOST of the aliens are in hiding, biding thier strength an' all? Its in the background story @ starter post. There are known alien bases who have finally found the strength to try and attack peeps an' all, but they are few, anyway ar'nt any of you interested about the boy?


Edit: And also, the way your going around like always putting a sentence saying something to another player, then you're waiting maybe hours before they come back online and post a reply, it takes AGES. So guys, I would just like to say that as long as you do it reasonably and not make them do anything thier character would'nt normally do, you can control thier character. Also please try to add more detail

But I must say that in terms of actual doing stuff, like killing yous doin cool

(thanks)

Terence's eye flicker open, "wtf was that?" he mutters to himself, getting up he experiences a sharp pain in his left arm, the whole out side of it has had the skin ripped of as he skidded along the ground and the tendons and muscles are ragged with the wear, he grimaces, tearing a strip of of a nearby corpses shirt he ties a touniquet around the top of his arm while he sorts out a proper bandage using the looted fabric of a nearby houses curtains, after he is bandaged up he looks around for his rifle which was thrown clear,

Searching around the area he eventually finds it halfway up a tree, he reclaimes it by shooting the branch holding it with his pistol, slinging it over his shoulder he glances up at the skyline and sees a massive black cloud enchroaching, "fantastic, just what i need bad weather".

Trudging into the approaching gloo he finds a barely damaged house and begins to set up some modicom of comfort, "I need to find those guys, theyll need me there with them as ranged support, without me they dont have a hope,as a group, we might. I hope they know this place well or they could end up as lost as that poor child who did this. Under his breath he mutters a few words to the locket he now holds in his hands, the lock springs open and he looks at the picture inside.

"Ill find you"

Jog? I did say you were thrown miles away m8

(sorry i just assumed they were close cause of the quick jump between Garth helping me and meting with the others, okyday ill redo my last post )

"Wait should we High jack the Aliens ship?"

Hmm suppose you could try but remember that that could be the last one n the world actually flying around as all the others are liking making experiments underground and stuff.


Whoops gave you a tip

It will be the only one I give though.

only upon waking from sleep did Terence realize he had dozed, the air was gloomy and humid, the clouds above threatening snow.

He gets up wincing as his arm twinges, quickly shuffling through the wreckage on the floor he finds the material required to change the bandage, his military training coming to him as easily as if he were still fresh from the academy, find shelter, learn your position until its like your own home, understand the enemy, conserve strength ammunition and stealth until no other option is available, think about every situation before acting.... the phrases flew through his head in a jumbled mess, but somehow he understood them all.

Reaching into his jacket he checks his guns and ammo are still lodged in there respective holsters and pouches, he scans the room, taking everthing in, old furniture and glass fronted cabinets surrounded by pictures of a long dead family stare out at him with accusing eyes. "Dont look at me its no my fault your dead." Reaching fowards he places the pictures face down so that they cant haunt him with there long dead eyes.

After exploring the house throughly he finds a sewing kit which he promptly uses to darn his jacket, sewing the old leather back into form, several lines of thread streatching across its surface suggest other wounds that have been torn through the leather in past battles.

Peering into the gloom through one of the house's windows he sees shadowy figues walking along the road, their gait suggesting reverse joint knees and hunched shoulders. They wernt human. Calmly he pulls his rifle to his shoulder glancing down the scope he sees the form of a small figure held by one of them in its bowed arms. Terences heart jumped slightly, it was a girl about 9 or 10 her ragged dress faded and patched, could it be? What have they done? Monsters.

His heart thudding he pulls the trigger twice decapitating both aliens, reloading the rifle and slinging it over his shoulder he draws his pistols and sprints out the shattered door. He skids to a halt beside the prone figure of the girl, an arm hangs limply by her side, an arm made of fabric, pulling the cowl of the girls face he sees the facimile of a childs eyes staring blankly at him, a small speaker lodged where its mouth should have been, a tinny voice was coming from the speaker and Terences heart raced as he heard what it was saying: "hello daddy, i see youve met my friends, hello daddy i see...."

Spinning on his feet he sees several more aliens coming out of ally ways and down the street towards him, turning he sees more in the other direction. The aliens still a good distacnce away he takes the locket from his neck, kissing it briefly he winds the chain around his hand and draws his knife, holding it in his left hand and his pistol in his right he turns grimly to meet the oncoming foes.

Wahoo nice post I see you took on board what I said, its good to know somebody actually cares that the aliens have been experimenting on children, but still hijacking a ship will be hard, but could have quite nice benefits. Tyranic

I smell Bioshock refrences.......

Never played it sorry, although i know what your talking about (the game) because a friend plays it

A cold certainty grips Tereance's heart as he runs forward, swinging his knife into the neck of one of the aliens. He probably wouldnt survive this, ducking under a sweeping arm he puts his pistol under the chin of the offender and pulls the trigger, using the momentum of the shot he slashes the chest of anouther.

Ichor slicks his hands and chest as he fights the aliens, they are not fast, but they are relentless, fighting on even after sustaining wounds that would kill a human. A scaly arm wraps around Terence's chest and lifts him up, slamming him down to the ground. Terence sees briefly a maw of jagged teeth descending to his neck.

Suddenly a hook comes out of nowhere and impacts the side of the aliens head, digging in and ripping it from its slender neck. Subject Alpha's whoops ring out, "I came back for ya" pulling Terence to his feet, the pair grimly fight their way through the crowd of aliens.

Finally as the last one falls Terence turns to Subject alpha and says: "What made you find me?"
Subject Alpha shrugs and points to the aliens, "saw 'em and couldnt resist, you know how much I like killin' these things"
Terence turns slowly on the spot and winces as he looks at his arm, the bandage had survived somehow and the stiching on his jacket had held, but pain was throbbing through it from the exertion of the fight. Reloading his guns and sheathing his knife he grins and sais, "well lets find the other two shall we?"

Haha nice m8 I like the way you have realised you can control other peoples characters, once again a good posts, and even though I have not played Bioshock Blood Reaper, I think I know what you are getting at. The little sister I presume?

Your Right there
Subject Delta drops one of his hooks to and pulls out a Sythe from his cape using it to decapate and disimbowl Aliens.

hmm k I have ideas for an event but it should be in a few days

All good,

As Terence and Alpha move through the wreckage of the city the sky begins to snow. The flakes adhere to the ground and quickly change the shape of the land into a white shapeless landscape.

After some time Terence crouches down and picks up what appears to be a spent shotgun shell, sitting ontop of the snow, "were close", Ploughing through the snow difts they spot a creery fire in a building, but with noone next to it, out loud Terence calls "Oi Merlin you there?"

merlin ducks out from behind the wall of a shattered building lowering his shotty, "hey guys, heard ya coming and made myself scarce, wernt sure who you were"

"totally understandable, wheres the other guy?"

"here" garth steps out from behind a wall opposite also lowering a shotgun. "i believe we havnt been properly introduced, im garth, i think ive said it before but you were nearly unconcious at the time so thats me, whats your label mate?"

"Terence Blackwood" stepping forward he raises his hand in greeting, garth promtly gives it a good shake and lets go, "we thought wed lost ya, but Alpha thought youd be out there some where, so he went to look, we aint bin here long, we were just waiting for you two to come back then we were heading of."

"sounds good, where we goin?"

"alien bunker we want to get these s.o.b's"

"fair enough, looks like youve got my guns for this one boys, alrighty, shall we go then?"

"It would be delightful to do so"

"Indeed, alright garth you take point, then alpha, ill pull up behind you lot with merlin and well make sure you lot dont get smoked from anythin behind us, alright then, lets move out." Terence could feel the military part of his mind waking up, the need to have things ordered so that disorder could be identified and fixed, so that imposters could be rooted out so that saftey in formation could be assumed

Event huh? What event? (yawn) so damn tired, (yawn) what RP? Oh yeah... will have something up, after food...

In other words I think an event is comin up pretty shortly.

Actually guys I have granted you more time to do whatever you want to do. Make use of it

Moving through the snow and wrecked buildings the group draw closer to their goal, on the outskirts of the city they find the tracks of a alien they have never seen before, Terence crouches down and looks at them carefully
"whatever it is, its big, and fast, see how the tracks are deep but only at the "toe" the heellike part of the foot is rased and i would suggest it was moving quickly, also see how the snow it flicked out in grooves at the front of each print? that shows haste, whatever this things up to its moving fast and its in a rush"

After travelling on for some time the come across the corpse of a civilian, the front half of his chest ripped out and a neat hole in his chest where the ribs had been cut out and his heart taken, no other obvious damage to the body can be found. Turning to the group Terence says quietly "its still warm"

You lot mind if i join?

Ive got no prob with it but ud better wiat for kais to give the all clear

Same here, I want in on this if you don't mind.
