*Sparking his lighter and inhaling a puff of smoke, ReDeemer clicked-shut his Zippo and placed it in his left breast-pocket. Toking his cigarette and holding his M4-203 at the ready, the Major steped through the rubble and wreakage of the almost completley destroyed city around him. Some buildings stood tall above the Trooper as he proceded downtown - looking for the threat of the enemy as searched around collapsed debris and slowly infiltrated abandoned stores, residential areas and school-houses. It was almost completley quiet - save for the sounds his boots made as he continued into the ghostly-silent city.*

*Jumping from a small ledge, ReDeemer landed atop a playground structure - hidden by the wreakage of a toppled bus. Looking downwards and jousting the Bayonete on his rifle into the metal side of the bus, ReDeemer jumped forward and caught himself on an open piece of debris sticking out from the bus - releasing the grip of the bayonete from the bus and sliding down the slick sheet of metal. Taking a step forward from the structure, a click sounded from the building ahead of him - ReDeemer looking forward to see a doorway, a window and an alleyway to his left. Guiding his laser-sight of his M4-203, the Major scanned the alleyway clear, and proceded into the building - the door collapsed inwards. With the night sky overwhelming the city, and no sign of either Ally or Enemy, ReDeemer took his steps inwards to the building - A coldness settling in the room he entered.*

*struggles to push some debris off her body, she was caught by surprise when the city was destroyed. once, free she looks around taking in account all that she can see...and then she make's sure everything with herself is ok and then starts to look around for her 12 gage shootgun-finds it about three feet from where she was, after that she makes her way towards what she thinks is the way out, once on the street she takes a better look at the city, having a hard time taking it in.*

Oh my...what the Hell happened here? Where is everyone?

*holding her shootgun close she starts to walk slowly and carefully around all the debris and wreakage, trying to keep the silence as it is...granted it is a bit eerie, but this way she can hear and see whats going on. as the darkness of night gets darker, the renegade trooper now trys to find a safe place to wait out the night till the morning...not wanting to, but she has no flashlight on her person*

His head pounded and his ears still rang. He vaguely remembered, as if it were a dream, a bright flash, guns firing, and people shouting. He slowly opened his eyes and relized he lay under a heavy blanket pushed it off of him letting in the foreign light. How long had he been out? No matter, he looked around taking in his suroundings. The room was a bearly recognizable filth. It looked as if the machines lying in in burnt ruins were various life support machines.

He stood and opened a door next to his bed. It contained a bair of black steel toed combat boots, clean socks, and a folded pair of black pants and shirt. He quickly dressed and exited the room into a complete emptiness once a busy hospital. He reached into his pocket and found a name, Damien. Was that his name? He couldnt remember. But on the back of that paper was a locker number36 and code 37-66-84. He decided to go downstairs and check the lockers. once he found the right one he entered the code and opened the locker. His eyes grew wide as he stared at two black automatic pistols, a sawed off shotgun, and a sniper rifle. He looked around even though he was posotive the hospitol was deserted, and loaded up.

loading up a clip in his autopistols he stared into the destroyed city and the debris of a once great city.

*koshi stummbled out of the thunderbolts cockpit, the now mangled fighter-bomber lay smoldering amidst the rubble. One minute..there was fighting, gun fire, the next...nothingess. It looked as if he had crashed through a building and skidded to a halt at the end of a street, the street..unfamiliar..he didnt know the city...even before something happened to it..soldier down in enemy territory??? was it even enemy territory anymore?? What was he doing here? His head hurt from thinking, so he decided to scour the wreckage, he got the cockpit open and reeled from the smoke, his eyes stinging, he pulled a duffel out of the plane, and sat down to peruse its contents; combat knife, body harness, recon combat body suit, and a stack of c4...how it hadnt exploded in the heat was anyones guess*


where is this place??

after the destruction of the city, the RT leaders were M.I.A...Shin gathered a small group of lowly soldiers and a tank to raise a search party to find the missing leaders

As the group aproached the city night had taken full effect..Shin Being the only one smart enough to bring nightvision has to get out, as the tank cant navigate in the dark...Shin directs the tank on where to go by radio...he takes the time to look at his surounding like a good soldier should...not seeing much except green and black...he makes out the shadows of the once tall city...

the tank slowly rolls around the corner a soldier sat out of the hatch using a torch to search...the light blinds shin wearing his nightvision...he throws it off his head in anger...as he throws his headgear off the radio is destroyed...the driver of the tank is deafend by the screaming threw his radio..throwing him of course..hitting a wall in the progress..

Shin hears the screams of the soldiers and comes to his senses again...he glaces toward the tank...barely making out the outline of the tank..then he sees a large shadow moving..threw the ringing in his ears he hears a sound no so far from thunder as the ringing subsides and shin concentrates he relises it is the sound of falling bricks and rubble...he runs in a direction..not knowing if it will lead him to his own death..as the sound gets more intense he dives randomly into the direction hes running...curls up and hopes he stays alive...hes is listening frantically...the sounds of crashing metal and muffled screams heard...then silence...

a glowing light shines from behind shin...an orange light...shin opens his eyes and sees very little around himself he turns to see flames licking the side of the tank...he makes out a bit of rubble laying over it...rushing over Shin see's the torchman on the floor on fire...not moving..on a closer inspection the man is laying in half blood and entrails litter the site...Shin bangs on the side of the tank to see if anyone made it..as he does a small noise is heard round the back of the tank...unbeknown to Shin Fuel begins to leak...

Shin bangs hard on the tank shouting names..this time he cant ignore the bang near the fuel tank..he inspects...seeing the fuel edging closer towards the fire he runs to the man laying in half
and takes his gun having not being able to see his own...

as he begins to run he hears screams coming from the tank...as it becomes englufed in flames the screaming becomes worse..shin stops and turns around..now two screams can be hear..hellaciious and bloodcurdling..shin throws a genades under the tank...in mercy of the two trapped men....the fuel tank explosion and the tank shells throw Shin bouncing across the land...

Shin wakes in the dark corner of a housea alarge hole in the roof..maybe his point of entry...he looks around himself..seeing the vague outlines of walla around him...the only way he can tell hes in a house.he pulls himself to his feet..and takes a step forward down a flight of stairs..banging his head most of the way down..at the bottom..shin stands..dazed and too confused to be angry...he feels his way to a rock and sits down...he begins tro get his thorghts back..his first one....

"Where the Fuck am I?"

*she could hear the distant screams and noises from her hiding spot. Fear is something she as a lieutentant wasn't used to feeling, but now in this strange darkened place it came over her like a wall of water. She slowly creept out of her hiding spot, going by her sight alone...trying to dodge large shawdows and highly dark spots...makes her way back onto the street and watchs the direction form where the noise's came from clutching her shootgun close to her body. She starts to walk slowly again, this time keeping her eyes out for anything that looks human.*

Is...

*she see's something that looks like a house...or so the shadow resembles one she grew up in...and so she heads towards it.*

Is anyone here? Please answer me...Is anyone here?

*A faint voice caught ReDeemer's attention instantly - sending him jousting his M4-203 into the next room quickly in front of him. The laser-sight blared straight through the room as he scanned the corners of the source of the voice.*

"...Nothing...Though I'm damn sure I heard someone..."

*ReDeemer continued searching the house when he came across what looked as a living room or family room of such. He looked over the pictures hanging on the wall next to the front door - which had debris colapsed over the doorway. Blowing away the dust on the glass coverings. From what the Major picked up, the family that lived here seemed quite spectical of their surroundings, ReDeemer noted as he looked over the pricey china in a glass case nearby.*

"Looks like what used to be a happy fami..."

*ReDeemer's words completley left his mouth as he noted a little girl in a picture. Quickly coming to his senses, He whiped away the dust from the picture to see the little girls full figure captured inside a memory of a photograph.*

"Jesus...She - she almost looks like..."

*She stepped out from the kitchen doorway as he continued to stare at the picture in amazement - walking slowly towards ReDeemer while holding a shotgun close to her chest*.

"Shroomy! - How did you get here? This place is a wreck, and I didn't think that anyone was in this city after the RT cleared out awhile back..."

*ReDeemer stretched out a hand to Shroomy's shoulder - Trying to look into her bewildered eyes as she slowly released her grip on her shotgun. ReDeemer tried to comfort her in the wreaked situation. Shroomy suddenly dropped her shotgun and fell into the Major's arms in total exhaustion - tears slowly filling her eyes as ReDeemer rubbed her shoulder.*

(Damn...Bobo is going to be worried sick knowing shes out here in this wreak heap.)

*ReDeemer carried Shroomy to a sofa next to him - kicking off the debris and laying the Lieutenant on her back as she slowly calmed down. ReDeemer took a seat next to her in a chair. Setting his rifle against the sofa, the Major lit another cigarette as he watched Shroomy fall slowly into sleep - Sudden gunshots being heard outside the house - ReDeemer whiping back his hair as he rested the smoke between his lips.*

*she was enjoying the moment of rest in the company of a friend, a true friend. Everything was a huge confussion to the lieutentant, one moment the city was whole, full of living people, full of life....and then she woke up to this nigthmare of death and destruction...everything was gone. It was too much to take in at once, she was scared for her life, and wishing for an explanation. It was the sudden sound of gunshot's that pulled her from the rest, in a split second she was sitting up clutching onto ReDeemer's arm and trying to locate her shotgun*

What the Hell happened ReDeemer...what happened to my home?

*sees her shotgun, let's go of ReDeemer and grabs her gun up again. She's so worried about her fallen Renegade Troopers...suddenly it hits her...she doesn't know her own enemy, it's the first time she knows nothing...just that she has to lvie and ReDeemer seems to be the only life in this city besides her...until the sound of gunshot's was heard once again*

Shin is no longer perched on his rock...shortly after he sat there and began to ponder he was hit by a brick..he stands assuming this was falling debris, and begins to move out of the way....

as he moves he hears a faint whisper....Shins attention is quickly grabbed by the almost silent sound...but hes sure he heard it...turns in the direction and aims his M16 rifle..as he does he begins to hear a stream of noises...whispers,screams and shrills...getting louder for each second he is hearing them....Shin unloads a full clip into nothing...scared for his life he shoots randomly..he turns and runs as fast as he can...eventually he stops from exaustion...stopping in the middle of a road..shin on all fours attempts to get his breath back..then he listens agian...this time nothing....

as he kneels he sees a flashing light in a building...almost like a flint...as he watches the flashing tring to get his breath back...he doesn't notice a shadow coming from his left moviing at him...Shin is grabed by the unseen essense...struggling and as he is dragged across the floor he manages to put his finger on the trigger and shoots the shadow.....for an unknown reason he is let go...

"HA whatever the fuck you are....whoever....your fucked now..im gonna shoot you so fulla lead its untrue"

as shin utters these words he hears the screaming again....but louder...he turns and runs..again

Redeemer ans shroomy and just about to open the door to the house they stand..when they hear screaming and running....redeemer puts his hand on the door handle when the door swings open and Shin knocks both shroomy and redeemer over in his hurry to get threw the door...

a moments silence and shin stands wondering what the fuck he had hit...he sees redeemer and shrromy on the floor...both looking rather annoyed but pleased to see another RT member...shin being the gentleman offers shroomy his hand to help her up...redeemer picks himself up and attempts to light another cigarette...but his lighter doesn't work..there is no gas....and only the flint is sparking....Shin helps shroomy to her feet and takes out a Zippo lighter and hands it to the major....they all look each other up and down....the first words....

"are you both ok?"

second...

"what the fuck?"

*looks at the control pannel finding a place to land the people empty transport shuttle, using external video viewers to do so. Something.. unknown is messing with the scanners, both on the shuttle and the ship in orbit. Sighing, Bobo pulls up his memories of where the Troopers lived and visited alot.*

"This is gonna be some work. Least I know some life made it. Heh.. Hope the ship finds a way to contact us."

*Glances at the dead space radio as the shuttle, shudders on its landing, at the outskirts of the city. The external lights moving searching around the ship as he does his landing checks. Nodding that everything is good, he powers down some of the systems, and heads into the back, shutting and securing the cockpit. Hitting another button, the locks holding the All Terrain Half Track Armoured Transport vehicle to the floor, and walks to it.*

"Now to find them.. and see if they know what the fuck happened."

*Climbs into the drivers seat, powers up the ATHTATV and hitting another button, the back of the shuttle opens, and he drives out. Lights on both the Shuttle and vehicle going. As soon as the back is closed and secures itsself, Bobo heads off towards the City.*

*the gloom of night hugged tight round yasuo as he walked silently along the deserted streets, his breath forming clouds as he tried to keep calm, the city's silence was a muffled one, noises still heard, there direction not known. Yasuo made his way in what he figured was a northern direction, clambering over piles of rubble, checking buildings and vehicles for anything of use, for survivors. After a while, hes sure he can here an engine, some time away tho, prehaps a few miles off, cant let it see him first. Yasuo inds a vantage point, an over turned jeep at the end of a street, a place to hide, and yet still see, as far as the fog permits*

what happened to the rest of my swuad....was there a rest?? something aint right..

*yasuo settled down under the jeep, laying down to rest, not caring who may find him, he was confused and exhausted...couldnt keep his eyes open..he drifts into an unsettling sleep, his dreams haunted with flitting images and shattered memmories*

*once up, she dust herself off...and then gets another good look at Shin, and then another at ReDeemer.*

Good to see you Shin, in one piece and alive. I love the entrance you made...big and bold, leave it to you to draw attention to youself at times of desperation.

*she smile's at Shin to show her playfullyness in the statement. she sits back down on the sofa, her shotgun close to her as she listens to the sounds all around. Her mind is on getting out of the city, finding out what the hell happened and then trying to fix things....and then finding Bobo. she is silently praying he is ok and wasn't in this city when whatever happened...happened. she does feel safe with the major and soilder however, safer then she did out there in the mess of the city.*

ReDeemer, any theories about what has happened here so far?

*ReDeemer looked around the rubble of the house that was left - Shin starting to walk towards the kitchen in curiosity*.

"Well...I was dropped off in the city by air transport by the RT - I figured after we cleared out of the city, that there might be more left here in what I thought was left of the city. I came back, and the city was in ruins. Seeing the collapsed structures and buildings from a helicopter, I was dropped down and I made my way towards here...".

*Shroomy looked at ReDeemer in dismay - still confused by the debris and wreakage that has become her home.*

"...I've been here for about 3 days now - though I just recently started a search after I cleared out an RT post full of...things." *ReDeemer took a long drag of his cigarette as he walked towards the window - whiping the dust off and peering down the streetway.*

"Things that I really can't explain...In other words, you could call them monsters, I guess...Though they seem more like deformed civilians that seem to act like lifless zombies. Though they're much quicker...And stronger than any 'zombie'."

*Shroomy's eyes started to widen as she tightened her grip on the shotgun - also peering out the window ReDeemer looked out of.*

"Much to say - I cleared out the place in about a day, and after that I stocked up on some supplies at an ammunition shop, and slept in a hospital not too far from here. I ran into some resistance at the hospital, though before I was gone, I noticed some dead creatures that were in a different part of the building - Bullet casings and deep gashes in the wall."

*Shin walked back into the room as ReDeemer turned from the window - facing the Major as he stoped in his tracks*.

"I ran into some trouble myself on the way over here - I was attacked by something in the shadows...and something that attacked the squad I was in, and it seems killed some soldiers. You think those...."

*ReDeemer took a step next to the hallway - toting his M4-203 on his shoulder as his cigarette grew an ash*

"...Think they were the same? Who knows...Probably. Though all I know is that there are surviors - You and Shroomy - And thats the only reason I'm here now - to find more. I'm damned sure theres more people out there, Hell maybe even more RT - So i'm finishing my duities here until I've cleared whats left of this city.'

*The Lieutenant and Soldier looked at the Major as he eyed both, and proceded back to the window - This time a crash heard outside the building they occupied. Shin hesitated and almost lost his balance as the crash shook the room*.

"What the Hell just crashed ou..."

*ReDeemer kicked the door out, and ran outside to the front - firing his rifle as he took the first look*.

*Shin smashed his arm threw the broken glass in the window and begins to fire threw it..crouching down as he does...he sees two creatures...*

*the closest one is around 8 feet tall and has growths on its arms and legs...there is a huge mouth on its forehead...the bare bone can be seen on the left leg...it seems as though it was chewed..the clothes are torn,burnt and only the pants are there in full...ripped and shreded.

the second is much smaller and has no head...the chest has been ripped open by weapon fire..the whole body is black and chared...the left hand has an eyeball attached to it....the right leg on this one has been blown off...*

*as shin looks closer he can see a third creature crawing on the floor..the bottom half has been ripped clean off...and small part is still on fire...Shin sees a helmet on the creature..it is then he relises the creatures are the remains of the RT search party he led...*

*Shin runs out of ammo for his M16..he takes his desert Eagle and jumps threw the window...shroomy...unbeknown that the creatures are ex-RT members looks baffled as Shin runs at the creatures...Shin stands in front of the 8ft beast...looks at it..as he does the creature makes stupid swipes at him with its arms...shin uses his hieght advantage to rrun around the creature...this one cannot turn quick enough...the left leg cannot turn well as he comes behind it he blows the right leg clean off at the kneecap..he then kicks the bare boned leg and snaps it....taking a quick step back from the beast shroomy blows a hole right threw its chest....then another shot takes a growth off its arm.....he sees redeemer fire his M4-203 and a rocket sticks in the smaller monster...shin grabs a grenade and stuffs it in the mouth(on the forehad) of the tall beast...who is trying to stand..the growth that fell off begins to mutate...an arm sprowts out..as shin dives he shouts...redeemer dives with shroomy into a ditch ...

"FIRE IN THE HOOOOOLLLLEEE"

*the smoke clears the three join each other to observe the aftermath...the two creatures were obliterated and the crawling creature is left wriggling around...the top half of the head is missing...and an arm is gone...the rib cage is broken and smashed up...it protrudes the body...nerves and arterys string out from the missing arms place..flesh insdide is bubbling...

redeemer walks over to it as he stands the onceman is still trying to nibble at his foot..he takes the halbred and skewers the head..then ripping it off*

"amazing...its still trying to eat me...after all that...what the fuck are these things..and where did they come from"

*redeemer pulls off the head and throws it*

*Shin decides it time to tell the others the identity of the monsters as redeemer says*

"where they townspeople here?"

"No....i reckonised the helmet one was wearing...they were the remainding members of my team...i dont know what the fuck is going on...but i think we need to pay that weapon shop a visit again...im outta tools"

*Shroomy turns and looks at her derelict house....she lets out a sigh*

"i guess...i didn't pack much ammo...shells are pretty big"

*Shin turns towards Redeemer*

"well major?"

*as shin finshes his words the fallen growth attaches itself to the upper arm on what was left of the destroyed torchman...the carcas begins to shake violently....Shin fires his desert Eagle...ther is a click..shin open the magazine to find no bullets*

"SHIT"

*Redeemer steps up to the job...he takes his M4-203 and aims it...looking at Shin..and smurking at his empty ammo situation..he pushes the trigger.........CLICK*

"SHIT..*Deemer Drags on his cig*

*the two look at Shroomy.....she looks in her pocket...and pull out 2 shotgun shells...counting the one in her gun...she has three shots...time is not in her side*
