Chapter 8: Home Invasion
~Day 1~
May 5th, 2018
Time: Early Afternoon
Kyle turns to the others and silently points at the scene with a look of confusion.
”Those monkeys look like food to me.”
Go chase the monkeys away and collect the bodies.
Draw my knife and assist with getting ride of the monkeys.
Go see what the one dude is up to, I guess.
Kyle's only response to the situation at hand is one of confusion, in his years as a survivor, he had not formed a plan when it came to dealing with ravenous monkeys.
Decado and Big Joe arm themselves Tanto Knife and Claw Hammer respectively and confront the monkey menace.
[Decado Agility: 2-1]
Big Joe Agility: 4]
Decado chases after the monkeys, waving his Knife around, only for them to quickly surround him from various angles and heights, while Big Joe manages to chase down a few retreating ones.
[Decado Strength: 4-1
Big Joe Strength: 6+1]
Decado slashes at the monkeys, preventing them from coming too close but not managing to score a hit on any of them. Big Joe is far more successful, bashing the monkeys away with his hammer and stomping them into the ground. He eventually moves on to helping out Decado, clearing out the monkeys around him. One monkey nearly claws Decado's eyes out, but Big Joe takes the critter and throws it onto the floor before curbstomping it. While the rest of the monkeys retreat, Joe collects a good load of monkey meat, as the food container can hold.
(+12 FS[Requires Cooking])Charles ignores the monkeys to pursue the survivor man, and finds him taking cover behind a wall. He takes a skeptical look at Charles, clutching his Machete.
"...Hey."Ready the hunting rifle, then call out to the motorist.
"'Oi! Who goes there?"
Move slightly away from Alejandro surreptitiously, and sneakily ready my gun as well.
Alejandro readies his Hunting Rifle as the motorcyclist draws near. Majikthise takes this as a sign to move away from his position.
[Majikthise Stealth: 5-1]
Majikthise hugs the wall, preventing the newcomer from spotting her, at least until he got close.
"
'Oi! Who goes there?" Alejandro calls out from his position as the motorcyclist draws near. The figure stops, reaching into its back pocket, "Nobody that's gonna' hurt yo." The voice that comes from under the helmet is vague but definitely masculine in tone.
[Alejandro+Majikthise Perception: [1(-1)+1]/2 = 0.5]
Alejandro and Majikthise both peer out to see what the motorist is doing, but neither of them can locate him, like he's disappeared except they know for certain he is around here somewhere, but they lack any indication of which way he could have gone. Both survivors search for him while remaining quiet and unseen, until they hear a noise from upstairs indicating that he's already made it
inside without either of them seeing, probably through the rear door or a window, and has already made it above them. He's somewhere up there, doing something the two of them could only guess.
