Endgame Earth

[Luke White-Heart]

The mini-mart was surrounded. Comsumers swarmed the place, like a great ant hill. Luke shook his head, but inside he was itching for a fight. For some reason, he loved the thrill of fighting; it was the only time he felt like he was doing anything right. He reached over his shoulder and gripped the hilt of his sword and drew it, the blade coming from it's sheath silently, filling Luke with a rush. He smirked with bloddlust and charged into the horde, sword flashing.

This piece here, this bolt slides in there, the stock there... It was a trance, she was lost in the craftsmanship of her rifle, each piece made custom by her hands, each a shiny silver that caught the faint light. Sliding in the bolt she snapped it into place and brought it into the rifle back into a locking position, it was now done. But something was happening. Lifting her head from her work she looked out the door of the ice box hearing strange noise, there was the sound of steel on bone, and allot of grunt and groans, shouts and splashes. Something was happening, was it help or the foe. Bolting up she reached for her handgun sticking it in her belt and whipped her rifle over her back. Walking briskly to the ladder she walked up into the morning air. There was a faint chill in the air as the night still held a grip over the place. Walking caushely to the edge she saw the disturbance, a lone fur with a sword, hacking and slashing his way through the horde, but it was becoming too much for him, he was starting to slow and the horde further surrounded him, cutting off his exit he was slashing and cutting making a small circle around him. Eventually the consumers stopped rushing and waited around in a tight circle snarling and slashing at him, there where too many and the consumers where learning.

As they entered thru the door Sarah spoke. "My name is Sarah. And I understand a rescue might not be an option ight away but I'm not sure how much longer they have. The place is crawling with consumers. They need help asap." She held out her hand to Bena. "Come on I'm pretty sure its safe here. And don't worry we will save him."

[Ventus Fall]

The black haired young woman scanned the room and saw a fox-wolf fur looking directly at her. He waved at her.
She turned her head away at first, but saw he was badly injured.
Himawari decided to walk up to him.
She knelt down beside him while he was taking care of himself and said: "Are you allright? It seemed pretty badly injured..."

When she heard Nova say:  ''Does anyone have an objection to... exploiting... the human settlement on the city edge for... necessary materials?"

She at first thought it didn't matter to her much. She didn't know those other human beings.
But then it came to her: 'What if she was living right outside of the city right now? Would she also be ambushed by these antropomorphs? Just because she would be human, living outside of the city...'
Himawari did not at all feel comfortable with it, but she was with the furs now, not against them. Perhaps her time would come when she could really openly say what she thought, but now... With so many of them here... most of them think alike about humans probably. And she was on her own...

She stood up, standing next to the fox-wolf fur with a hard expression on her face.
 

[DenDen]

Denden noticed that the human came over and asked him if he was alright : "I...I am alright" he said and touched his bandage. "It will be fine, just give it a bit" he said and smiled. He tried to stay up , first he had a few problems, due to the pain - but he got used to it pretty fast "ugh", he goes to Nova after his small speech and says" I could start to introduce myself, after you're done. I'd like to know a bit more about the one, who leads " looks around the room "all this, and the one aswell as the others who saved my. ... my life".

[Luke White-Heart]

Luke's sword grew heavy in his hands. He panted from exhaustion, but he was far from done...or scared. Quite the opposite; he was high on adrenaline. He smirked as the Consumers surrounded him. With his other paw, he removed one of his Desert Eagles, nicknamed Lupus (the other was Leo) and held it in his paw opposite his sword. Firing into the crowd, he charged again, slashing ang shooting with a battle-high laugh.

[NovaAurora]

    Nova waited for any objections, but received none. Then he saw DenDen get up and walk over to him, before making his statement. "Well," Nova said more quietly, "I'll be happy to tell you anything you want to know, and by all means introduce yourself, but hold on for one minute. Everyone needs to hear this." He changed back to his announcer voice before continuing.


    "I'll take your silence as meaning nobody has a problem with this." He said to the crowd. "Good. Because here's what we're gonna do. Today we will round up as many supplies as we all can carry, so we're prepared to evacuate once darkness falls tonight. Obviously we have no modes of long distance transportation, but this is where the humans come in. Once it is dark, we will make a non-violent, if possible, assault on their settlement. We know they have vehicles and fuel, but they're afraid to use them or give them to us. So we're going to take them and put them to good use. Their settlement is surrounded by walls of sheet metal and concrete and watched at all times by snipers. At night however, we posses every advantage over them. Those of us such as myself, who can scale such defenses easily, will climb the walls and incapacitate the snipers. Once that's done we can get inside and open the main gate, allowing the rest of you to enter. Most of the humans will be asleep, and unable to respond in time to take up arms if we're stealthy enough. By the time they know what's going on we will have seized the perimeter and can keep them at bay, hopefully without having to fire upon them. All we take is their vehicles and fuel- nothing else- then drive the heck out of there. Quick and to the point- then we leave New York behind forever. Does anyone have any questions?"

"Hold on there, I object," Jared said. "Wait... what were we objecting to? I kinda zoned out... might be the blood loss." He gently held his left arm just below a bandage on his shoulder, wincing a bit. He sighed and thought for a second... then suddenly looked at Nova. "What the hell is wrong with you?" he asked.

[NovaAurora]

    Nova was startled by this outburst. "I asked if anyone had any objections!" He shouted, slightly annoyed at this. "If you're THAT against doing this I do have another plan. ARE you that against doing this? Because the other plan might be far more painful, for all of us."

[Cifero Windtail]

    Nova was startled by this outburst. "I asked if anyone had any objections!" He shouted, slightly annoyed at this. "If you're THAT against doing this I do have another plan. ARE you that against doing this? Because the other plan might be far more painful, for all of us."

"No, go with your previous plan," Jared said. "But perhaps we could do this a bit more diplomatically than just..." The cat thought a second, and then looked at Nova. "Well... then again... are these humans capable of understanding diplomacy like our friend here, or have they gone mad with power? Also, do you think that perhaps you could be a bit less of a..." He widened his eyes and slapped a hand over his mouth, then uncovered it again. "Well, you tend to get a bit more rough than usual. But... could you just answer the first question I posed?"

[NovaAurora]

    "The humans used to be able to understand diplomacy." Nova said.  "When we first started the resistance here, they were open to trading and collaboration. However, once it became evident we had very different survival strategies and visions for the future, they broke off contact with us out of fear of making the whole situation worse. Since then they refuse to acknowledge us, it's basically an understanding that they don't mess with us, we don't mess with them. On the rare occasions we've tried to contact them, we were turned away at the gate and refused any sort of access. They're not hostile, but they're unwilling to negotiate. And I figure, as long as they have vehicles and resources that can be put to good use, but are unwilling to use them, we might as well take them so we may achieve something much greater than either of our current existences."

[Cifero Windtail]

Jared nodded. "Alright then, I'm fine with this plan... but let me take care of the incapacitation. It should be done silently and non-lethally..." He grinned. "And sorry about before... I'm still a bit woozy from the blood loss..."

[FurryJunky]

Luke's sword grew heavy in his hands. He panted from exhaustion, but he was far from done...or scared. Quite the opposite; he was high on adrenaline. He smirked as the Consumers surrounded him. With his other paw, he removed one of his Desert Eagles, nicknamed Lupus (the other was Leo) and held it in his paw opposite his sword. Firing into the crowd, he charged again, slashing ang shooting with a battle-high laugh.

 
His swordsman skill was impressive as he weaved in and out of groups of consumers. Ducking a dodging under and around there claws. It almost looked like a dance to her from her vantage point, but the consumers only grew more aggressive, and the group around him tightening as he lost more and more breathing room to duck and weave. Pulling up her rifle to her shoulder she looked along the side of the barrel and not through the sight. A consumer was about to impale him as this lone fur was pulling free his sword, but with a loud crack the consumers head disappeared as the force knocked the consumer back into the pile. This action brought others looking up at her, and now she was caught in the fight. They clawed there way up the building, only to be shot or impaled down from the blade on her sniper. The walls turned red as well as the ground, and there where still allot more.

[Kit Aalish]

Sarah spoke up. "I agree with your plan. All that I ask is that while yyou are assaulting the humans that I take one voluter with me to help those furs in the mini-mart. Just one no more for I do not wish to risk more lives then I have to." She looked at Nova with pleading eyes. "Please, I made them a promise."

[Ventus Fall]

Himawari heard Jared and Nova talking, after things calmed down, she walked up to them.
"Nova," she started, "Would you mind if we can talk seperatly? It will only take a minute of your time."
While waiting for his reply she hoisted her backpack on her back completly and put both arms through the straps.
