Turn 11Now that the occupants were probably gone, and the headache was fading,
Taric got up off the floor, and started to go through the contents of the house. [1] He found nothing useful. The only thing he found was a single chocolate bar. Everything else has been taken already. Just as he got ready to leave the house, though, he heard something upstairs. So he walked slowly up the stairs, careful to make no sound. At the top was a door straight ahead, and one directly to the right. First, the door in front. Slowly he opens it... looks like a bedroom. After a quick search, he finds a wallet with $200 in it! And a card with the name 'Jay Carpenter'. Next, the other room... he stopped to listen at the door, and sure enough, he heard a faint tapping. Inching the door open, he looked inside... to see a small black bird tapping at the window. There was broken planks and varius foodstuffs in here... and at least five guns, along with various other things that could be used to kill someone.
Taric has found: Hidden Survival Cache! Wooden Planks, Food Rations (28 days.), Illegal Weaponry (Guns: LARS-II, HAP-SS, Katek APAG, MTR Shawkin, LRAP-SR), (Melee: Antique Shortsword, Fire Axe, Combat Knife, Sledgehammer), (Magazines: .30 Caliber Magazine [25x4], 12-Gauge Magazine [8x2], 6 .270 Caliber Bullets), Tools (Hammer, Nails (50), Wrench), Batteries (20 pack: 14V), First Aid Kits (7), High Power Torch (3), Pack of 50 Matches.
Taking the radio,
Jannele continues searching. She finds nothing else of value, and decides to leave. [1] But just as she does, she hears the door open downstairs. "Honey, I'm home!" ... Maybe this house wasn't abandoned? Jannele scrambled to the window, the only one unlocked and/or open... or tried to. A woman was standing in the way, arms crossed. "Why are you in my home?" Uh-oh...
A small circle appeared on the computer screen. Then, the screen changed. There were various entries, always with the name
Rebecca Carter in the title or description. The top entry was of a woman named Rebecca Carter, who was a famous singer or some such who died 7 years ago. She found nothing related to herself, though.
Shawn was having fun. As soon as he saw the TV he pressed the small button, and started fiddling with the knobs. Soon enough, a news channel was on the screen, telling the story of 'A Government Testing Lab Ransacked! 53 Security Guards Dead!'. Well that sounds familiar now doesn't it?
Tarran, now that his arms were bandaged and the dull throb was starting to appear, decided to go look for Rebecca. Unluckily for him, he doesn't know which way she went. He wanders off into the city... and finds [8] Taric. Taric informs him of the survival cache, probably left by the people who shot him. Tarran is a bit disturbed at how Taric's back and head is covered in blood and some form of gray matter.
Cal quickly made his way back to the Hospital, now that he had an axe. The Hospital workers looked at him from the corner of their eyes, but he didn't seem to be an axe crazy murderer, and they had enough trouble on their hands than to annoy someone with an axe. Timynn quickly walked up to Cal. "You're.. not one of the people I wanted to see. But you'll do! Go looking for the others, please. I've sorted out what I need to, and I need to ask a question of you nine. It's a pity that we lost James somewhere on the way..."
Kin was having fun. By having fun, I mean she is walking into a door, muttering 'Mind over Matter' over and over again. It wasn't working. One last try... that's all! It has to work this time. [6] She walks straight at the door, eyes reflexively shutting by now... and then falls down the small flight of stairs. It did work after all! After a few moments, the Gap-toothed old man came up the steps. How is he so darned quiet? And how did he know she was up here?
Oh god, the noise...
Desmond curled into a ball, hands clapped over his ears. Every time he let his mind go, the sickening whispers, the words, the laughter the crying. Every single sound in the city... all jammed into one horrible moment. Slowly it faded. Okay, that isn't a good idea... Though faintly the urge to return to the hospital is felt inside his head.
Herbert slowly winces his way out of the hospital. Timynn told him to wait, but Herbert said he wanted something to eat, and is going to find a restaurant. Then he remembers that he has no money.
