KeyCard25 and Tidus41390- KeyCard and Tidus watch as AZ buys himself a hammer. All Tidus can think is "Cheap Bastard." AZ turns to leave the store, and smashes shoulders with KeyCard. KeyCard wants to retailiate, he really does... but he has no way to defend himself. Even two on one, the claw end of a hammer can do some serious damage. After AZ leaves, Tidus and KeyCard take a look around the store.

"So what do you have for sale?" Tidus asks

"More customers?! This is my lucky day!" The nut job shop keeper responds, "I sold my last hammer, but I have some steel piping for $100, and a shotgun for $750 with an extra set of shells for $50. Take your time and look around!"

The hearts of Tidus and KeyCard sink when they realize that they cannot afford the boomstick. *insert sad face here* But then, Tidus has a more then brilliant thought...

"Key, you have your $500 bonus on you right?" Tidus asks eagerly as KeyCars nods "Well good! Lend me $300 so that I can buy the shotgun and shells! You'll still have enough to buy that fine piece of steel piping, and we will both be armed to the teeth! It'll be great!"

"Why do you get the shotgun?" KeyCard questions "I'm a much better aim then you are..."

"My idea, my boomstick. Besides, you don't need that great of aim with a shotgun."

"Touche... Fine, here you go. But you BETTER protect me... or I swear I'll haunt your ass."

"Just my ass?" Tidus sneers

KeyCard chuckles somewhat sarcastically and pulls out $300 and hands it to Tidus. Tidus nearly does somersaults as he hands the money to the shop keeper. The shop keeper grins ear to ear as he hand Tidus a mighty fine pump action shotgun and an extra set of shells.

"YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!" Tidus screams at the top of his lungs

Tidus walks towards the door of the store and fills the shotgun with it's first seven shells. KeyCard pulls out another $100 and pays for a nice sized length of steel piping. KeyCard and Tidus, now armed, head for the door.

"Hit up the Grocery Store next?" KeyCard questions

"Sure... I could use some food..." Tidus responds with a grin

"Um... Guys... Could I ask you for a favor?" The shop keeper asks out of nowhere. "If you find someway out of this hell hole... Please come back for me. I don't want to die like this... Not when I'm so close to-- I mean... Not like this..."

The shop keeper's bobble confuses the two men, but Tidus gives the man a resounding "Yes." The two men then laugh as the run out of the hardware store, blow by lj, and run right into the grocery store, unphased by the blood smeared door. Coming through the door they almost run right through AZ. Tidus takes great pleasure in the way AZ looks at his shotgun. Looking around, there is food upon food upon food. Enough food to feed a small village for at least a month... Yum. The first thing that catches all three of the researcher's attention though is the blood trail leading to the back of the store. AZ takes charge and follows the trail to the back of the store, with KeyCard and Tidus close behind. As they get closer to the back of the store they begin to hear a slight sobbing. Reaching the back, KeyCard and Tidus see a man propped up against one of the cash registers. He is bleeding badly from a wound to the abdomen, but is still very much alive. The man instantly reacts to the presence of the three men...

"P... Pl... Please... Help me... First Aid... Kits... Third... Ailse... Please..."

KeyCard and Tidus scan the area and realize, that for now at least, there is no imeadiate danger here... hopefully. Standing in @the back of the grocery store@, the two men could go to @the front of the grocery store@, @ailse 1@, @ailse 2@, @ailse 3@, or @ailse 4@. From the back of the store the two men only see #a cash register# and #the wounded man#. Well... Does KeyCard or Tidus have enough heart to search out the first-aid kit for the wounded man?

ljfromsa- lj watches as AZ attempts to enter the General Store. God that guy was an ass. He then watches as AZ, and shortly thereafter KeyCard and Tidus, enter the grocery store. Really wanting to know what that guy's problem is, lj walks up to the General Store and bangs on #the glass window#. He bangs so hard the man rushes up to the front brandishing a #baseball bat#. When he realizes that lj still has his humanity, he lowers the bat and gives lj the finger too. This pisses lj off to no end and he starts to punch at door of the General Store. The man inside walks up to the door and starts to shout at lj through the thick glass...

"What the hell do you want, you psycho?!"

"Just let me in the god damn store!" lj shouts back "I have enough money to buy just about anything in there, I'm sure!!"

The man just sneers at lj... "Money? What the **** good is money going to be when I am dead? I know you just want to come in here to steal what supplies I have left, because you think that you actually have a chance to get out of here. Am I correct?"

"I don't even know what the hell is going on in this village!! I just got here today! What IS going on in this village?!" lj screams

"...You're new? Well, Welcome to the Second Judgment. May God have mercy on your soul... Bring me some sort of firearm and I'll let you in. I'll even give you anything you want from my store. Until then though, I am not risking the chance that anything get in here. I still value my life. Just look at Steve. He left the grocery store unlocked and... something got him... I don't even know if he still alive..."

The man turns away from lj and retreats to the back of the General Store. lj knows that he doesn't have a firearm to offer the man inside, nor does he have anything strong enough to smash through #the glass window#... Or does he? Perhaps the #bench# in this area could become quite a projectile...

Researcher #2...I'll get you for this Tur!

Still jumpy and defensive, I wait for the man to make his move. A glance over at Nate and CC shows that they are both alright. What a relief…

Suddenly, the door to the Village Idiot goes flying open. It’s Seymour and the bartender! And they have guns! Nice!

"Jim...? ...No... NO!!!!!!!! Jim boy, please..."

I raise an eyebrow questioningly at this. And he’s crying? What the hell? And now he’s going to hug him? Hold on a second!

Too late. The zombie (I can only call this thing a zombie. Looks like one, smells like one, and it just bit the bartender, so it sure as hell acts like one) bites into the bartender’s arm.

Son of a…!

But the bartender has a gun raised with his other hand before any of us can do anything. "I love you Jimmy... I'm so sorry..." And then he’s firing. One of the shots nearly hits me! I have to dive quickly to keep my head intact.

Okay, this is officially THE worst first day on a job ever. I already had my supposed boss pull a gun on me earlier (won’t be asking for a raise anytime soon…), and now I almost got SHOT IN THE HEAD. Yeah, fun…

I’m rather shook up after that, naturally, and Nate and CC help me back up just in time so I can watch the bartender pump his left bullet into zombie Jim’s forehead.

The bartender is injured badly, and we take him back in and tend to his wound as best we can. I have no medical training, but I do what I can.

"HELP ME UP DAMMIT!" he bellows after we’re done.

Nate and I help him to his feet, and he hands Seymour a key after mentioning some Second Judgment. What in the world is he talking about? But he’s asked us to help his wife and daughter. Jim was his son…he wants to rest of his family to escape…

Back in the Inn’s lobby, we quietly sit, contemplating our next move.

“Seymour, that key. It must be to Mr. Jones’ house. Let me have it. I’ll go and bring his family back here…”

I can probably move faster if I go alone. And I don't want to endanger the others, anyway. I check the key.

"House 100, eh?"

Checking the map as to where House 100, I get ready to go. Between that zombie, Karter, and whatever thing was being babbled about earlier, I'm going to need to move fast.

I could do that. I'm swift and stealthy, like a blue jean-clad ninja...or something.

Researcher #2...I'll get you for this Tur!

"Hold on!" Nate raises a hand to stop the others from leaving just yet. He's gone into baseball mode, meaning he is very communicative, and feels this group he has now is his "team".

"Tur, once you've found anything of interest at the house, and you've secured the safety of Mr. Jones' family, come right back here. It's not a good idea to be wandering off; this place leaves me more than a little unsettled. Anything happens, don't be afraid to call on us for help"

"Seymour, GSMY, be careful. You guys should come back here once you've found anything important."

Nate paused for a minute, and gave everybody a grave look.

"I want to share something with you guys. You know the gun turrets atop the towers that we saw upon entering this place? They were facing back towards the village, rather than towards the outside! I mean, they're supposed to be protecting us, aren't they? Now, with this "zombie", or whatever it was, on the loose -- and who knows how many more are out there -- we have to be very cautious. I don't think I need to tell you that we're stuck out here with nothing but each other, and five minds think better than one. So... be careful."

Having concluded his rather corny speech, Nate put on a bit of a smirk and said, "So, that said, we should share each other's info. What have you guys found out about what's going on so far? What is this about a safe?"

Researcher #2...I'll get you for this Tur!

I was about to leave…

"Hold on!"

My head snapped backward. It was Nate.

"Tur, once you've found anything of interest at the house, and you've secured the safety of Mr. Jones' family, come right back here. It's not a good idea to be wandering off; this place leaves me more than a little unsettled. Anything happens, don't be afraid to call on us for help"

I was already going to come right back. This is just wasting time…they could be in trouble.

But I had to admit he had a point. Who knows what else could be out there? I turned again to the door.

"I want to share something with you guys. You know the gun turrets atop the towers that we saw upon entering this place? They were facing back towards the village, rather than towards the outside! I mean, they're supposed to be protecting us, aren't they? Now, with this "zombie", or whatever it was, on the loose -- and who knows how many more are out there -- we have to be very cautious. I don't think I need to tell you that we're stuck out here with nothing but each other, and five minds think better than one. So... be careful."

Agreed. We have to work together to make it out of here in one piece.

Nate then suggested we share our collective info. I looked back at my allies. I really hadn’t found out much, except Karter was a wack-job, so I advised the others to stay away from his mansion, and then I quickly threw out his description, so they’d know who to watch out for.

Frowning, I added, “Listen, someone needs to go to the airstrip and warn our co-workers. They seem to be dawdling up there. Tell them exactly what’s up, and get them back here. Hopefully, they’ll be here when I get back, but if not, I’ll do it, I guess.”

I couldn’t waste anymore time. I was off.

"You're right, Jase," Nate said with a nod. "Be careful, though. Bring those people back safe. And don't worry about those at the airstrip. I'll go check on 'em, along with anybody else who wants to accompany me." He then smiled, a sincere, honest smile, and let him leave without further delay.

Nate then turned to the others, and said, "Please, fill me in on what's going on. What are you talking about - a safe? What the hell is happening? Anybody have any clue?"

"Holy...."

After witnessing what I just saw, seeing "Jim" attack the bartender, seeing my more courageous coworkers help him and scatter about, I get up from under my bar stool, where I was hiding the entire time. "Did I just see what I think I saw?...."

After watching my comrades leave the pub, I notice the empty HANDGUN that was thrown under the jukebox. I crawl over, avoiding the broken glass of the window, and TAKE the handgun. "I will be needing this, it seems.."

Once I see the coast is clear, I decide that, it would be best to check out the rest of the pub, to see what the bartender was hoarding. I OPEN THE BAR FRIDGE, hoping to find anything. "What the hell is going on in this place? Well, I need to get to the research center, but avoid the hospital. But not without any ammo I won't..."

There's more to life than video games! Like television!

Huge Super Big Update III!
For the first time I have nothing to yell at anybody for... Damn... No, just kidding you guys have been great so far. I'll be doing something new this time around. I'll be giving a general update for all of the people in the same room (Inn, Grocery Store), and then break off from there into the person-specific updates. Confused? Just read everything. This was the hardest update so far, because of all the new places being explored. I had to redo this one... thrice... ugh...

The Inn- Natus looks over the crew once or twice before snatching the House 100 Key off of the countertop. Hey, Evan DID give it to him... Natus was just about to address the group when Tur stood up and walked towards Natus...

"Seymour, that key. It must be to Mr. Jones’ house. Let me have it. I’ll go and bring his family back here." Tur says, somewhat confidently

"Oh... Um, sure. That would be the best idea. I mean, we at least owe Evan that much after he saved us and all..." Natus replies

"He wouldn't have been biten if you had just shot Jim when you had the chance..." GSMY chimes in

"You weren't even outside so you have no place to be blaming anyone!" CC yells

"Guys! Guys, come on. We have to work together. We're a team! We were brought here together, and so far we've done a good job working together..." Nate begins, "Tur, once you've found anything of interest at the house, and you've secured the safety of Mr. Jones' family, come right back here. It's not a good idea to be wandering off; this place leaves me more than a little unsettled. Anything happens, don't be afraid to call on us for help."

Tur looks back at Nate and can barely conceal a smirk... Nate, oblivoius, continues...

"I want to share something with you guys. You know the gun turrets atop the towers that we saw upon entering this place? They were facing back towards the village, rather than towards the outside! I mean, they're supposed to be protecting us, aren't they? Now, with this "zombie", or whatever it was, on the loose -- and who knows how many more are out there -- we have to be very cautious. I don't think I need to tell you that we're stuck out here with nothing but each other, and five minds think better than one. So... be careful."

"Zombie?" Natus says distantly, "You don't seriously think that Jim was..." He cuts himself off as he recalls information that he had remembere learning about the Arklay/Raccoon City incident. Everything fell into place: Extreme resiliance, limited mobility, rotting flesh, basic instincts... Jim WAS a zombie... "Zombie it is then..."

The entire group shudders. They too remember hearing the stories of Raccoon City... Feeling the dire need to go to Evan's family, Tur address the group a final time.

"Okay, I'll be back real soon. Take care, everyone." And with that, Tur opens the Inn door... and departs for Evan's House, House 100.

The four remaining researchers again sit in silence. Natus has a briliant idea, and runs over to Room 001. It's locked, and Natus punches at the door in frustration.

"Is it so much to ask for a single god damned room to be unlocked in this place?!" He screams.

GSMY holds up his magic 8 ball and shakes it...

"Yes. Most definately. Sorry Natus, but the ball speaks only the truth. Watch: Is the pool room safe to explore?" He asks as he turns that ball over, "...Uncertain?! Ask Again Later?! Screw it, I still want to take a quick look at the pool room, so anyone of you with a REAL weapon who wants to join me, PLEASE do so."

Natus holds up his mini magnum and smiles, "Heh. It's about time I put this thing to good use. I'm in."

Natus and GSMY walk over to the pool room door, but are stopped by Nate.

"Seymour, GSMY, be careful. You guys should come back here once you've found anything important. I'll stay here with CC for now, she seems pretty shaken up."

"You do that, Nate. We'll be right back." GSMY says as Natus turns the knob to the pool room... It opens! It was unlocked! Natus smiles...

"Someone must like me..." He says. And with that, GSMY and Natus disappear into the pool room together...

"You do that, Nate. We'll be right back." GSMY says as Natus turns the knob to the pool room... It opens! It was unlocked! Natus smiles...

"Someone must like me..." He says. And with that, GSMY and Natus enter the pool room together... Upon entering, Natus and GSMY are taken aback instantly. There is quite a large #indoor pool# here, but the water is so clouded that it looks brown... Eww... Anything could be in there. There is however, a very clean looking #hot tub# that looks as if it could provide hours of relaxing pleasure. There are several lounge chairs and tables, one of which has a #towel# covering it. Towards the back of the pool room is a #sqaure hole# in the wall with a sign above it that reads: In case of emergency, drain the pool here... Natus walks over to the sign, looks at the hole, and sighs...

"Of course, they couldn't possibly have left the crank in the hole, or a note saying where they left it. No, not at all..."

"Well, we might not even need a crank. Just something big and square that we can turn..."

"Your 8 Ball doesn't quite fit that description..."

"I know that!" GSMY snaps, "I was just saying, you know..."

"Wow. Calm down dude, I was just kidding with you..."

GSMY continues to look into the pool... Did something just move?

"What the hell is wrong with this place...?" GSMY ponders

ljfromsa- Wanting answers, but not wanting to be overly destructive on his first day here, lj decides to acquiesce to the man's request, and decides to search out a firearm for the frightened man. lj pulls out his map and scans it for a few moments.

"Hmmm... The Warehouse has supplies for the market so... That should be a good place to start."

lj tucks away his map and heads out of the market. On his way to the Warehouse, lj sees Tur walking toward the housing area, but he doesn't bother to stop and chat. lj cuts around the left side of the farm and finally comes back to the warehouse. Standing in front of the Warehouse, lj can barely make out the welcome banner on the airstrip. Just seeing the airstrip again makes lj shiver... lj pulls at the door of the warehouse, and surprisingly, it opens. Wow. Unarmed, lj is very cautious when enetering the very large building. lj is taken aback at the size of the warehouse, and all of the supplies it manages to hold. lj is amazed. Simply amazed. Something crashes towards the back of the warehouse and a voice can be heard screaming out...

"Where the hell did is it?! It has to be in here! There just isn't any other place it can be!! God Dammit! I can't finish him without that vial... Did I leave it in the safe...?"

lj ducks behind a #crate# as foot steps draw closer to him. lj watches as a blonde man in a flowing white scientist's jacket walks towards the front of the warehouse. Underneath the jacket the man wears a black T-Shirt with an Umbrella logo on the chest and the words "Dr. Karter" in crimson lettering underneath of that. He is carrying a nice sized handgun as well. Big enough to put a good hole in you... Dr. Karter walks to the warehouse door and just kicks it to open it because... well, he's that bad ass. lj's heart is pounding, and it's a few moments before he even thinks of moving. When he does finally get out from behind #the crate#, lj examines the warehouse a little further. He walks back to the area where Dr. Karter was to find the place trashed. Documents are scattered everywhere, along with some food stuffs, and some broken power tools. One piece of paper that catches lj's eye is the only thing left laying on the entire rack in the back. Apparently it was the #document# that Dr. Karter had been reading. Moving back into the larger portion of the warehouse, lj sees what one would expect to see in a warehouse: Shelves, boxes, and even #a logbook#. The cloud cover breaks for just an instant, and sunlight floods the warehouse. The light catches #something shiny# on the top shelf of one the racks. lj could possibly go get it, but he doesn't know if it will be able to hold his weight. Also in the new light, lj sees that there is @the manager's office@ in the back. Hmmm... The image of Kris Karter storming out of the warehouse is still fresh in lj's head... Does he want to keep exploring this place?

The Grocery Store- AZ, Tidus, and KeyCard all stare at the wounded man pleading for help in front of them. The three of them exchange looks, and both AZ and KeyCard take off for the third ailse. KeyCard stops AZ with a stiff hand to the shoulder.

"Don't worry yourself. I'll go get the first-aid kit..." KeyCard says before shooting into the third ailse

"...Stupid Bastard..." AZ mumbles and wanders into the first ailse.

Tidus stays with the man and tries to comfort him, although there is little that he can really do.

"Don't worry. We'll help you out... No problems at all... Just a few more minutes...."

KeyCard25- After brushing off AZ, KeyCard chokes up on his steel pipe and shoots into Ailse 3. This is most definately the personal care ailse. Soaps, detergents, toothpaste, and the sorts. KeyCard examines the shelfs back and forth a few times before finally seeing the #first aid kits#. He is about to grab one when he watches AZ head right out of the Grocery Store. He just left the poor man. KeyCard wishes he had taken out AZ when he had the chance. KeyCard turn back towards the first aid kits when he sees something out of the corner of his eye. #A book# is wedged between the Fabric Softener and the Deodorants... Does KeyCard have enough time to read the book now, or should he get the first aid kit back to the man as soon as possible?

Tidus41390- Tidus too watches as AZ leaves the grocery store. Tidus is pissed, but his attention is still focused on the poor man in front of him. The man is slipping in and out of consciousness every second. Tidus continues to console the man, but at the same time he is also curious to see what is in the cash register. Tidus punches in a few buttons and the drawer pops out... but it's empty... Empty? Tidus lifts the drawer out... Nothing. Tidus searches all around the register. Nothing. How in the world can a cash register be devoid of any and all monetary bills and coins? Tidus hits the screen of the cash register with his fist, and as he does, he notices a #strip of receipt paper# next to the register. A receipt, but no money... Odd... Hey, what is taking KeyCard so long?!

AZPunisher- Having been beaten to the punch by KeyCard, AZ decides to just examine the other ailses instead. He starts in ailse 1. No doing too thorough of a check, AZ sees milk, cheese, butter, #a freezer#, some chips, dips... What is that #thing# behind the meat? Oh well. Going up ailse 2, there is some Coke, Pepsi, Dr. Pepper, #an open case of Sprite#, and quite a lot of non-perishable food. AZ skips ailse 3, not even wanting to see KeyCard again. AZ doesn't even go down ailse 4, he just kinda glances down it, seeing nothing of importance right away. But he was kinda lax in his searching, and there could actually be something of importance in any of those ailse. Up at the front of the store, AZ spots #a shopping cart# and the grocery store #item list#, along with a #book rack#. Hmmm... Intresting. AZ takes on last look towards the back of the store, before leaving Tidus and KeyCard with the wounded man. AZ pushes his way out of grocery store and heads right back up to the General Store. He meets 'fingerman' again, who again taunts AZ to no end.

"Think you're safe behind a locked glass door, eh ************ ?" AZ snickers

AZ looks over, sees the Bench and just grins from ear to ear. He heads over to it, and hoists it on his shoulder... AZ turns back to the General store with a mission, and notices that 'fingerman' isn't smirking anymore... AZ then launches the Bench through the glass. It shatters in a beautiful display of sparkling shards. AZ blocks the flying glass with his forearm, and walks inside with a crunch... He pockets his hammer and takes out his Handgun. AZ walks up to the wide-eyed, shocked 'fingerman', grabs him by the throat and sticks the handgun in his face, the barrel leaving a small circular imprint in his forehead.

"So, smart-ass.. I heard you wanted a firearm..?"

AZ kicks the man's baseball bat out of the way, and removes the barrel of the gun from the man's head. 'Fingerman' has definately lost his arrogant demeanor... He now whimpers in the back corner of his store. AZ just turns and looks at the store.

"So... what can you tell me about this place, this 'Second Judgement', and the rest of the areas around this village, my good man?"

The man doesn't say a word... That is, until AZ points his gun at him again...

"Alright! Ok... Please don't shoot me. I'll tell you what I know, I promise!"

"You don't have a choice," AZ grins "Everytime you don't answer one of my questions, I'm going to put a bullet in you... And I promise you, it'll be something you'll miss... What is this "Second Judgment?"

"Our own private Armageddon... Our own private hell..."

"English please." AZ raises the gun

"Something must have happened at the Research Center... I couldn't tell you what... but everyone is... They're all dead. But they don't stay dead for long... It's... horrible..."

'Fingerman' is quite shaken as he speaks. Whether that is from the information he is giving to AZ, or from the gun in his face, it is unclear. AZ decides that for now at least, he'll leave the guy alone and look around the store. It isn't a very large store, but it does have quite the array of products. CDs, videogames, books, magazines, everything and anything to keep you occupied on a rainy day. The store is in shambles though. Part of that is AZ's fault for making such an entrance. He did go 10 kinds of hardcore on the place... but he couldn't have done all of this. Fingerman's #baseball bat# lies on the ground, surrounded in glass. On the counter lies a #Game Cube box# and a #wallet#. Sifting through the rubble of the store, AZ sees #a photograph# under a pile of CDs... AZ returns to Fingerman, this time with a more calm tone...

"Who did this to your store?"

"You did you psycho!"

"Besides Me!!"

"Oh... Dr. Wilder... He was looking for some 'vial' for Dr. Karter, and they thought I had it... He did a number on this place... So after he left I locked myself in here... I hope he never comes back..."

"Wilder...?"

Turducken- "Okay, I'll be back real soon. Take care, everyone." And with that, Tur opens the Inn door... and departs for Evan's House, House 100. Leaving the Inn, Tur has to look at the body of Jim again. It is still twitching... How is that possible? Tur goes northwest into the housing sector, passing lj without so much as a friendly hello. Tur finally reaches House 100 and he knocks first. There is no answer. He tries the doorknob. Locked. Duh, that's why he has the key. Tur pulls the key out of his pocket and unlocks the door. Having no more use for the key, Tur discards it to the garden next to the house. He pushes the door open and cautiously enters, pool cue in hand.

"Hello? Mrs. Jones? Are you here?"

There is no answer. Tur steps inside and has himself a look. On the couch is what seems to be #a diary#. The television has been left on, but all it is picking up is static. Tur rounds the corner and eneters the kitchen, where he sees #a cupboard# and a #refrigerator#. But there is no sign of human life... at all. The place looks deserted. However, there are doors leading @upstairs@ to the bedrooms, and @downstairs@ to god only knows what. Tur swings his pool cue around nervously as he has no idea what to expect. He accidently hits a picture off the wall, causing it to shatter. Is that a piece of #paper# sticking out...? Where is the family that's supposed to be here? If Jim was... like that... could the rest of Evan's family be dead too?

MisterFurious- Evan, in extreme pain, had forgotten about MF sitting at the end of the bar. MF quietly stands and makes his way to the jukebox, where he begins to search for the empty handgun...

"GET OUT! Dammit, did you not hear me?! Get out of here now before I do something that I will regret later..."

Evan makes his way behind the bar again and pulls out a large knife, supposedly used to cut lemons and limes for drinks. Now however, he is just waving it frantically around like a madman. MF doesn't need to be told thrice... He makes for the door. He quickly unlocks it and exits outside, tripping over the body of Jim. The sound of the bolt sliding in is deafening, and MF is... well... furious that he didn't get a chance to explore the bar more in depth. MF slides away from the body of Jim... It is beginning to turn a nice shade of red...

"And don't come back, you fools! I won't be myself... for much longer..." Evan yells from inside the bar

Damn. Mission Failed. Now what is a slighly intoxicated MF to do? He pulls out his map and ponders...

Everyone, to include our friends at the airstrip- The clouds continue to roll by as night begins to approach on our researcher's first day here. As the sun begins to set, a terrible roar can be heard from every single inch of the village. It seems to have come from the direction of the Karter Mansion... The roar is followed by a single word that sends chills up and down the spines of everything left alive in the village... "Judgment"...

Unholier than thou

Watching Tur, SN and GSMY leave CC and himself alone in the inn's waiting room gave Nate an even deeper sense of foreboding. He stood silent for a few moments, occasionally glancing up CC, trying not to catch her eye. He began pacing the room, taking note of what little there was to see.

*Where the hell is the staff?* Nate thought. He noted the wrecked ringer, and as he did, something behind the counter caught his eye - a few brown specks on the wall. As he looked over the counter, a sickening sight revealed itself - a pool of blood.

"Oooh..." Nate whispers to himself, turning away and covering his mouth. Well, that answers the question about the staff. How reassuring...

As he turns back to CC, he sees MF outside. He walks over to the door, opens it, and calls him inside.

"In heaven all the interesting people are missing." - Friedrich Nietzche

“A piece of paper behind the picture, huh?” I said, more to myself than anyone else. The fact that no one else seemed to be here helped that. But then, why lock it up?

“It’s quiet in here…too quiet,” I lamely remarked to no one but myself. But the paper intrigued me. I snatched it deftly, but didn’t read it just yet. It could wait. The diary caught my eye as well. Perchance it could shed some light on what all was happening here.

But it could also wait. I first decided to search this house bottom to top. If the Evans family were hiding inside here, they’d most likely be in the basement. So I’d start combing the building there. Then I’d go to the top floor. I’d look everywhere.

They had to be somewhere in the house. That’s what I hoped, anyway. "Hello? Anyone?" I called as I headed downstairs. "Mr. Evans asked me to come here and help you guys! Please answer if you can hear me!"

*Thinks for a moment about this talk of Judgment.. walks over to the Bat lying in the glass, shakes it off, and picks it up.. spinning it once in his hand..*

"I see.. well, your buddy Steve is in a pretty bad condition right now.. two of the guys I came in here with are trying to help him as best they can.. maybe a familiar face would do him some good.. head over there and see how you can help, grab whatever supplies you can, and head back to the Inn.. there are a few others there that might be able to help even further.."


*Soon after, he examines the Photograph, and the GC Box.. and searches through the wallet as well.. looking for a name, maybe he can return it.. but that's getting more and more doubtful by the minute.. looking around one last time for anything useful in this small shop, he crunches back through the glass.. and over to the Grocery Store once more.. checking in the Grocery Cart, and grabbing the item list, giving it a look.. he examines the book case for a moment or two.. noticing Key out of the corner of his eye, just now heading back from the 3rd Aisle..*

"Hmm.. maybe more than med-kits?"


*Casting a glance to see the small group near the back, he heads back to look in the aisles more thoroughly.. still hating to backtrack.. in aisle 2, he looks in that open box of Sprite he saw before.. grabbing one, since he's a bit thirsty.. looking through the hole in the soda shelf, he notices a book in the next aisle over, so he moves on to Aisle 3.. thinking a Book is a bit out of place in the medicine aisle.. he grabs it, checks it out, and walks over to Aisle 4.. taking a good, long look this time.. then finally moves on to Aisle 1.. he opens the freezer, and looks closer behind the meat.. moving it aside with his bat..*

"What have we here..?"

"Well i wanted answers right". lj quickly goes to the crate and pushes it as fast as he could to the top shelf. He hops on top and quickly grabs the shiny object without paying too much mind on what it was. he jumps down and grabs the document and logbook. " I'll read them when I'm in a safer place" he thinks to himself. He runs past the the manager's office deciding that he didn't want to be caught unarmed if Dr. Karter came back. He quickly runs outside the warehouse. "He said something about a vial and a safe". "He also mentioned completing him". "What the hell could that all mean" lj wonders. "That guy said something about a second coming maybe he knows something" lj thinks. lj decides to go back the market to question that shop keeper.

How the hell you gonna clean the kitchen with cheese Shake?!!!-Frylock from Aquateen Hunger Force

((Tidus.. just so you know, you're not going to be able to sneak up on someone who's been through SEAL training.. {true, your character has no idea AZ went through said training.. but you're about to find out} especially wearing a raincoat, in boots, on a Linoleum Grocery Store Floor.. you would've been better off emptying the Shotty at me from where you were.. you asked for this:))

*Upon hearing Key approach, and try to strike up a conversation about being 'friends' while there is a frantic, near-death man lying on the floor that he himself rushed off to get the first-aid for, AZ was just a <sarcasm> tad </sarcasm> alert.. he continues examining the freezer, oblivious to Key's rambling, but not oblivious to the reflection in the freezer door of Tidus approaching as stealthily as one could approach, garbed as he were.. making as if to lean further into the freezer, as if focusing on something, AZ uses that lowering momentum to spin around, and catch Tidus in the edge of his right knee with the Bat.. his ears ringing from the shot that was still very close to his head, he grabs the stock of the shotgun, ripping it from Tidus' hands.. seeing him, on one knee, he doesn't turn the weapon on him.. he instead forcefully cracks the butt of the shotgun against Tidus' jaw.. sending him to the floor fully.. two of his teeth can be heard skittering across the Linoleum..*

"Don't ever attempt to sneak up on me again.."
