"Aw, shit."
Solom turned on the light on his helmet, looking around.
"Guess we'll have to dig our way out of here; Monolith probably assume we are dead. So we need to wait a bit for them to move on, then we need to leave quickly; unless you happen to have an escape route, we should start digging now."

After Lucy got up and smiled at him, Carl smiled back. Then she asked a soldier about how long she was out and, after hearing his reply, sighed and wiped her tears away. This caused Carl to frown, tempted to get up and comfort the Dragooness who had just awoke from a frightening nightmare (or what seemed to be one to the Dinosaur).

Dr. Zetsche sighed as the building collapsed over his head. After that was over, he removed the cigar from his lips, and asked, "Is there another way out? If so, I can take everyone who can't fly inn my car to wherever iit is we are planning on going."

by **Goldsaver** » Fri Jul 15, 2011 4:50 pm

"Bad idea, a car will get detected and destroyed by the Monolith in no time; better to stay on foot."
Solom looked over the staircase, covered in debris.
"We should leave soon, the Monolith will move on."

by **John Richard Wright** » Fri Jul 15, 2011 5:14 pm

Dr. Zetsche looked out the window, and listened to the man's words. "You may have a point. At any rate, do any of you know where I can stash my Defender?" He then proceeded to take a nice long drag on his false cigar.

Lucy got up after a short while, her demoralized state fading away slowly.
"Well, staying here will not get anything done." she said, as the Dragooness brushed herself down.
Lucy strode over to the door of the closet, and peeked her head out.

An eerie silence accompanied the dark halls, it made the Dragooness shudder.
She dismissed the horrid memories, before taking her head from the doorway and looking to the Ceratosaurus as the Militants left the room.
"What say we do some scavenging? could find some useful stuff around here now, chances are that everything out there is dead."

She smiled eagerly, remembering about her Human Commander, she hoped that he would of suffered a terrible death.
But, just as quick as it appeared, it disappeared shortly afterwards...
Her friend Bullet, the Dragon, could of possibly died as well.
Lucy inhaled deeply, before exhaling with a lengthy sigh; trying not to display any of her sorrow.

Carl nodded as Lucy got up and went to the door to take a peak at the outside hallway. "Yes, that sounds good." he agreed to Lucy's comment. He then stood up and walked up behind her. He noticed her smiling a bit before it faded and she sighed deeply. Of course, he decided not to say anything to her.

by **Goldsaver** » Sat Jul 16, 2011 1:58 pm

Solom stood up, sighing.
"We should start heading out now; reequip yourselves; Sasha, what kind of Assault Rifles do you have?"

by **Yuktova** » Sat Jul 16, 2011 2:21 pm

Nathan said to Solom, "I'm all ready to go. Just filled up on ammo recently. Some muntions boxes over on the table," he pointed to the table full of various ammo types. He polished off his Gauss Rifle of dirt and dust.

by **Ruskarkand** » Sat Jul 16, 2011 5:17 pm

Sasha finally found the small deposit of wood, and the Dragooness opened her jaw, and shot a continuous jet of flame at the small stick, heating up rapidly, it combusted, and lit alight in next to no time.
Now with a source of light, she spoke to Solom.
"General purpose rifles, most of them chambered for 5.56, a few for 7.62, that sort."

She lifted her clawed hand up, and pointed to a crate in the corner, obscured by darkness.
"Check in there."

Lucy turned from Carl, he having agreed to her idea, she stepped into the corridor and wasted no time, she quickly walked out of the gloomy corridor and into the previous area, where she thought she was safe.
She was reluctant to go into the light at first, but she persevered, afraid of the fact; that if anything was waiting in the darkness for her, it had a vendetta against the Dragooness.

It seemed a childish phobia to her, but then again, it's hardly childish when something horrible with a blade grafted to it's arm emerges from the shadows and tries to skewer you into a fine dust.

She turned back, and waited for Carl to follow.
"It's clear out here, nothing seems to be stirring." she called out, hoping to get his attention.

https://dragcave.net/user/Bellumsaur13 · by **Saurisisia** » Sat Jul 16, 2011 5:20 pm

Watching her walk out into the hallway, Carl took note of Lucy's hesitation in her movement. She seemed worried, obviously from the horrible dream the two Reptiles woke up from. Sighing, he nodded at Lucy's gesture and began followed close behind, commenting "Yeah, it sure as hell does."

Vin soldiered his AWSM and walked over to the box. Upon searching for a few minutes his eyes lit up.

"Sasha, may i have the AUG steyr A3? You see, i got to fire one off not long ago and loved it."

Vin pulled out the gun and looked it over.

"Sasha, if you let me have this i promiss i will watch over your children as if they were my own."

Durzahg was moving quickly. He'd gotten out of the Red Forest by now, and was moving quietly around Pripyat. His objective was to get to the old Chernobyl nuclear reactor; the source of everything weird here.

Durzahg hoped his supersonic descent and rough landing hadn't attracted attention. Anyone with a brain would've realized that something had landed in the Red Forest, because there was little other way to account for all those snapped branches and the marks he'd left behind. There was some movement here and there, but Durzahg avoided it.

by **John Richard Wright** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 10:18 am

Dr. Zetsche said, "Did someone say assault rifle? Let me see!" With that, he charged over to where Vichenzio was.

by **Ruskarkand** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 2:15 pm

Sasha frowned at Vinchenzo, looking concerned.
Hammer shared the same look, simply staring at the Human.

The Dragooness approached him, and looked down at him.
"You know, what you just said was really disturbing, so disturbing infact; that you are not getting it, because I do not have one anyway, only Mercenaries import those."

She turned and stepped over to the crate and opened it, inside there was a good few rifles, an FN-2000 and a HK G36 are immediately recognised, but amongst the two are two more less than ordinary rifles.
An AKs-74m with a bloated magazine, it etched into the side was 7.62x54;
Next to that was an FN FAL rifle, with an extremely modified barrel; similar to the Gauss Rifles barrel.
It's magazine was also similar, multiple notches are embedded into the stock.

The Demon knelt down, and grabbed the FN FAL before standing up again.
"Gift of the Zone." she said quietly, inspecting it.

Lucy strode over to the door to the firing range, before gently pressing it open and peeking her head inside.
There was nobody in here but a few corpses of both Mercenary and Monolith, the room illuminated by a hole in the wall so aptly placed by the Dragooness earlier.
She sighed, before throwing the door open and stepping inside.

The crates had been ransacked, it seems a final stand was made in the room, but from the signs of the dead, it failed.
The Dragooness looked around, it was a sorrow sight, but she inhaled deeply and carried on.
"It seems clear in here." She called back to the Ceratosaurus.

"Come on, maybe we can find our old shooters!"

In the distance, not far from Durzahg, a pack of Snorks were on the move, laying low on all fours to possibly prevent detection.
They moved at a quick speed, making only light growls as they moved about and co-ordinated with eachother, giving chase discreetly.

One of the Snorks screamed out, the twisted vocal chords of the mutant forming it's cry into a violent roar, to signify it's presence.
It stood in the middle of the road, trying to divert any attention towards itself whilst the others remained weary of their unique prey.

by **Goldsaver** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 2:17 pm

Solom looked over the rifle Sasha referred to as the Gift of the Zone; an impressive rifle, to be sure.
"That is quite a nice rifle you have there."

https://dragcave.net/user/Bellumsaur13 · by **Saurisisia** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 2:21 pm

Carl sighed as he watched Lucy take a peek at the empty firing range. He then watched as she opened the door more to take a look around the room before looking back at the Ceratosaurus and asked if he was coming. He smiled and nodded, following the Dragooness into the firing range. Looking around, he could see various bodies of the dead before commenting "Jesus Christ, look at this place, it's now empty. Good thing we hid..."

by **Ruskarkand** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 3:16 pm

Sasha turned to face Solom, as she pulled the bolt on the rifle backwards to chamber a round.
As well as the distinctive clicking noise, a heavy charging noise accompanied it, as the Gauss Coils began to arc electricity between eachother violently and soundlessly, in an array of colors.

"Thank you, it's from an old friend, a Human, passed it onto me as..."
She trailed off, sighing indefinately.
"Well, he has left the zone now, his injuries were too grevious for him to continue living in this hellhole."

She continued inspecting the weapon; something about it just felt unnatural, as if it had an aurora of bad luck.

Lucy nodded to Carl's statement.
"Yeah, but really; next time we hide, let's not trek down an old, boarded off corridor to do so, I am sure there are other spots."
The Dragooness looked around, many of her kin were dead, amongst them, only a few Humans.
She walked up to one of the Monolithians, kneeling down next to the corpse and promptly frisking it down for any ammo.

Lucy didn't dare search any of the Mercenaries, she didn't want to recognise the face of any of her deceased comrade that she may of known.
It would of completely broken her, she knew this well, the Dragooness could not take much more.

She heard a feint clicking in the background, alerting her, she looked up and listened out for it.
"Do you..." she began, before the Dragooness paused, trying to listen.

Lucy shrugged, before finishing;
"Probably nothing, I think."

https://dragcave.net/user/Bellumsaur13 · by **Saurisisia** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 3:23 pm

Carl sighed and nodded at Lucy's reply. He watched as she searched a body of a Monolithian for ammo. While she did so, he looked around the room, feeling the urge to check the bodies for ammo or anything he could use. However, he too heard the clicking sound in the background, which made him crane his neck around, looking for the source. He nodded at Lucy's comment before settling back down, assuming it was meaningless.

by **Strykla** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 4:00 pm

As the thing cried out, Durzahg stopped his fast run. Spinning around, he used his helmet's rear vision to check behind him. Quietly and slowly, he continued onward.

Durzahg stopped as he saw the Snork in the middle of the road. The thing was revolting; Durzahg immediately fired his cannon at it. In different circumstances, he would've killed it silently, but the thing's scream was piercing, and anything for several miles about would've heard.

by **Ruskarkand** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 4:46 pm

The Snork was rammed backwards by the shot it recieved, killing the creature.
Multiple screeches were heard, before an audible roar was heard.

The ground began to shake violently, not far from Durzahg, the source of the outburst was identified, the large, hulking creature moving down the road at a quick rate, with each step it took, the shaking would become more intense.
The massive creature let loose another audible growl as it picked up it's pace.

Lucy got up from the corpse of the Monolithian, having found only an old, broken PDA and a zippo lighter.
The clicking became a lot more audible, to the point where it began to tip off the curiousity of the Dragooness.

She looked to the door, the clicking seemed to eminate from beyond the stairwell, down a floor.
Lucy began to stride over to the door, speaking as she did so:
"Alright, it's surely something, I am going to check it out."

She turned her head to face Carl, before carrying on.
"want to come with me?" she asked.

https://dragcave.net/user/Bellumsaur13 · by **Saurisisia** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 4:53 pm

As Lucy stood up from crouching near the body of the Monolithian, Carl noticed that the clicking sound was only getting louder, peeking the curiosity of himself as well as his female companion. As she approached the door from where the clicking was coming from, the Dinosaur nodded in confirmation to her question, stating "Of course!"

He then walked up behind the Dragooness, making sure to stay close behind when she investigated the source of the sound.

by **New Sheoth VI** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 4:55 pm

"Ah, sometimes i dont think before i speak."

Vin then grabbed the G36

"What about this one Sasha?"

He then looked at the AK

"Or maybe the AK, that one looks useful."

by **Ruskarkand** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 6:13 pm

Sasha sighed, looking at Vinchenzo, staring at him coldly.
"So eager to take what does not belong to you." she said in an extremely hostile tone, albeit quietly.
"But, suppose I should let you have it, otherwise I will never hear the end of it."

She turned around, before striding back towards Hammer with the gauss operated FN FAL in her clawed hands.
"These Humans, fucking vultures to another one person's memoirs."
Hammer nodded to Sasha, looking to Vinchenzo.
"Yeah, I know what you mean."

Lucy looked back to face Carl, before nodding in approval with a smile.
"Thanks, it's good to know that you are by my side."

The Dragooness turned around before she walked into the corridor, to the stairwell that they had once ascended.
The clicking noise had increased in volume considerably, it echoed through the halls, and as the sound became clearer, it was not just the one clicking noise, there were continuous bursts of repeated clicking.

Lucy began to descend the stairs slowly, the orange rays of the dusk sunlight illuminating the corridors through the window panels, shining in slowly.
She stepped off of the stairwell, and what immediately caught her eye was a door, behind the glass were heavy lights, flickering on and off.
The clicking seemed too intense to be anything like a faulty light...

The Dragooness began to step forward cautiously towards the door, her heart racing; behind the glass of the door, she swore she could see sillhouettes.
She slowly pressed against the door, and what immediately caught her mind were the countless corpses leant against the walls, each of them facing a TV monitor.

She stepped into the room, and what immediately caught her eye was Bullet; the Mercenary whom she had previously encountered.
Curiousity turned into horror, a convergence of emotion was at hand, her friend had been killed.
Lucy sighed wearily, before looking to one of the monitors herself.

Dozens of images flashed quickly, the flashing light reflecting off of the clean scales on her face, it was an alluring sigh to her, it drew the Dragooness' undivided attention...
She slowly began to dwindle into a trance, before she remembered;
It's just like the Dream.

https://dragcave.net/user/Bellumsaur13 · by **Saurisisia** » Sun Jul 17, 2011 6:21 pm

Carl followed Lucy down the staircase, going down steadily as he wondered what awaited them down there. He noticed the door before Lucy walked through it and stepped into the room. He gulped quietly before approaching the room slowly. When he entered it, he looked around, noticing the corpses placed in front of flashing monitors before glancing at Lucy, who was standing in front of a monitor, not moving an inch. Looking around, he muttered quietly "What the fuck?"
