Plague
« on: August 22, 2011, 05:07:11 pm »

(Please, no silly commands)

A plague has broken out in your town. The entire city is quarantined. The plague is incredibly lethal, incredibly infective and has no readily available cure. The most likely scenario is that the entire city is going to burn. You need to survive or escape. Do whatever it takes to survive and thrive. Maybe you can even get out alive.

Night One

You are in your apartment on your couch, awoken by a helicopter flying past and it's searchlight drifting into your room. It has flown away by now, but you are completely awake. You get up and stretch What are you going to do?

Look out of the window.

God DAMN I love this game!

You open the window and look outside. The streetlamps illuminate the street, showing some people walking by. None of them seem to be wearing a mask, and they are standing fairly close together. By the natural light, you guess it is about 6PM.

Look for anything of use, and a mask

Gather emergency travel supplies into a bag or something, remember that you will need to eat, sleep, drink, and not freeze-to-death/die-of-heat-stroke. Do we know of anywhere within the quarantine zone that would be completely devoid of inhabitants where we could hide until the situation resolves itself?

Easy what place would you stay away from during a quarantine? how about a clinic or anyplace where the disease could fester.

You seem to be under the mistaken impression that common sense is common...

You head towards a clinic. It is bursting with activity, with dozens of people waiting to be allowed in. Some are wearing masks, most aren't. This could get very violent. You head to a department store, and find hundreds of people panic-buying in the store. It seems that everyone had the same idea as you to go to places where no-one would want to go because of the threat of disease, but then they forgot the reason why no-one ever goes is because most people think of going there and end up dying of plague. You guess you should remember that just because this entire place is quarantined doesn't mean that people will be smart.

Yes, cough violently at anyone who gets close, and then get out of there and try and find a phone to call our relatives/friends outside of the city, and then some sort of News station. We need to keep them updated!

You go around, coughing violently. People stay about five feet away from you at all times. You search around the store and can't even find a phone. The manager puts up a sign saying "NO MORE FOOD/WATER" and ushers the crowd out. The store is now closed. Looks like the place got cleared out in a hurry. A military attack helicopter flies down the street and hovers near the crowd. "If there is any infected please point them out!" A man with a megaphone yells. The crowd points at you. A squadron of HAZMAT wearing soldiers drop a line and slide down it. They aim their assault rifles directly at you.

Stun them with your dazzling smile then kick out the feet of the two on the right and throw the third-soldier-from-the-right into the helicopter, causing it to explode into a fireball. disarm the remaining soldiers with a single spinning kick and proceed to head-butt them into submission.

Stop coughing.

Stop coughing, lay low, and eventually find a weapon.
