After - A Roleplay

Deleted • 8 December 2013 at 2:36 AM

You knew. You knew all along and tried to warn them. It was coming but everyone pretended all was well. Nobody wanted to face reality, they generated a happy imaginary little world to push the fear to the back of their minds. People everywhere smiled and acted normal even though their stomachs were crawling with dread.
On the streets you stood with others, holding sighs, speaking the bunt truth. People mocked you, called you crazy. Heh...crazy...Well it looks as if you've gotten the last laugh...

The bomb came. Just like you always knew it would but, you where prepared and made it in time. All of your savings you put into an underground bomb shelter. It had more than a years worth of food, water, and the highest quality generator money can buy. You had the assets to live like a king, but you spent it on this shelter, and lived in a low quality apartment. Surviving off nothing but ramen noodles.

In the shelter time had no meaning. How many months had passed? You had no idea but, judging by very small amount of food and water reserves remaining a bit over a year. Your supplies are running out, it's time to leave. To step outside. What could be out there? Others perhaps? Who knows, but the time has come.

Name: Lillian Zaare
Nicknames: Lil, Lilly, Lizzy, Lee,
Age: Nineteen
Gender: Female
Physical appearance: Lillian is talk and slender. She stands at five foot seven and is extremely athletic. She had dark blonde hair that falls falls just past her shoulder blades in gentle waves. Her skin is extremely fair, but she doesn't ram or burn much at all. Her eyes are a bright blue, by they occasionally seem more hazel than blue, depending on the day.

Ellie slowly climbed the steel ladder leading up to the hatch at the roof of the shelter. She had packed up a large backpack with food, water, clothes and her journal. She touched the cold handle but, hesitated to open it. "What could be out there? What about radiation?" Ellie thought to herself. The bomb was a hydrogen bomb, for sure. Very little radiation would be emmited, not a concern. Pure destruction, but at the same time not as bad as nuclear. Of this she was sure, but still, what would she see when it opened? Using all her strength Ellie forced the hatch open and peered her head into the sunlight, blinded by its brightness...

Jade stared around the bomb shelter and took deep breathes, trying to gather her courage. She slowly walked up to the hatch and gripped the handle nervously. Jade could feel herself shaking is fear. She held her breathe and pulls the hatch open. The ruble on the door fell off as the sun's rays entered the dim lighted bomb shelter. Jade narrowed her eyes to prepare herself of what she might see.

I'm actually unsure of what our characters are suppose to see O.o

You can read this, maybe it will give you an idea of what its suppost to look like.

After Ellie had adjusted to the sunlight she stepped outside. The ground was charred, the remains of trees lay everywhere, blown to shreads. Even though it had been a year there were very few signs of life. A quite small amount of withered grass poked up from the soil, that was about it. The worst part was the sickening silence. She remembered this part of the woods was always filled with song birds. All she could hear was a cold breeze as it brushed her cheek. If this is what the forest looked like, what would the city be like? She shuddered at the thought...

David looked around the place where he called hope for who knows how long. Now he's just ready to leave. He slowly opened the shelters hatch his eyes trying to adjust to the sunlight. "Darn I thought that my eyes would adjust quickly I can't see anything" David said to himself as he waited for his vision to return. "I wonder if anyone else....survived the blast" he thought. He slowly exited his shelter after his vision returned with his full backpack and a pair of sunglasses upon his face.

(Oh gosh, that's long. My other posts won't be this long.)

Silence, deadly silence and her own voice. That was all Lilliam had heard for what she assumed had been about a year. Her shelter, which she has stocked with enough supplies for at least three people, held only her.

There had been one other, but head got pretty much insane and had ended his own life with one of the hunting knives. The only thing that kept her from ending up like him was a small, ever fading, glimmer of hope that others had survived and were out there, just past her own little shelter.

That idea was the only thing that prompted her into leaving her safe haven. The place that she had worked so hard to get, the pace that had kept her safe from the bomb, the place that was running dangerously low on food and water. She collected the remainer of her supplies, shoving them and a couple pairs of clothes, along with her large knife, into a small double bag.

She shouldered the bag and glanced around the shelter. She knew she wouldn't stray far from it for the first few weeks, slowly going farther and farther from it until she found someone or somewhere that she could trust. It may take za while, but she was willing to do it.

She opened the door to her little home slightly and grimace as the sunlight poured onto her face. She pushed a bit more and the rusty hinges groaned in protest, but she continued pushing.

Finally the hinges allowed the door to swing open, tossing debree, dead leaves, and dirt off. She shut her eyes and took a deep breath, then let out a sigh if relief. Fresh air! It had been so long since she had smelt that, not sibce she had open the door to burry her friend mere months after they had holes up in the shelter.

She let her eyes slip open slightly and her happiness fell some. The world looked worse and better at the same time. There was more grass and she could have sworn that here was a few tree sprouts poking their heads up here and there. But the city, which wasn't very far from her shelter, had fallen farther. The few buildings that had survived the Bombay algae crumbled and fallen into nearly nothingness.

Lillian sighed softly, then whipped around to fave the forest that had once stood behind her shelter. Nothing. The trees were all fallen and rotten. It had barely any green in it and, I'd you hadn't seen it before the bomb, you would never have known that it had once been a forest filled with hundreds of trees.

The trees had varied in size, shape, species. There had been fruit bearers, if you knew where go find them; bushes filled with berries; wild strawberries had grown in abundance; and the wild flowers had bloomed and spread so that they were everywhere that another plant wasn't. It had been beautiful, but now it was all gone. The many memories she had of the forest was all there was left of the once beautiful land.

She took a shakeup breat and shook her head slightly. "No, Lillian, you are going to be fine even without the forest. There will be other places and you'll be fine. You're going to go off, find more survivors, and you all will work together to rebuild the cities and forests. It will all be fine."

She wrapped her arms around herself and nodded slightly, as if to enforce her words. She cart a final glance at the fallen forest, then turned and headed towards the city.

It had been around a week and a half and Lillian had still not found anyone. She sat on one of the less decayed trees, cooking a rabbit that had been unfortunat enough to stimble into one of the snares she had set using the many dad branches and some rope she had back in her shelter.

She felt slightly guilty for killing anything in the slowly growing first, but rabbits seemed to be repopulating fairly well, they were the only creatures she had seen around sibce steverged from her hole.

She rubbed her eyes sleepily and cast a quick glance around, as if hoping to see someone moving around. She, of course, saw no one. After pulling the rabbit off of the fire and eating a small bit, she slipped it into a small back that hung at her waist, meant for bagging kills. She started working her way back to her shelter, when she heard the metallic screech of a door being opened.

She froze like a frightened rabbit, her gaze fixed in the direction that the noise had come from, then she darted off to see who or what had made the noise.

After less than a minute, she saw a form heaving itself out of a hole very similar to her own. A exited chuckled escaped her in a gasp. The person had its back turned to to Lilly, so it didn't see her. Lillian took a shakey breath, then shouted out a hello to the person.

(Whoever wants to answer that can, I had no specific person in mind.)

Ellie knew she had to leave, their was clearly nothing here. With her backpack swung over her sholder she headed toward the direction of the city. It was a long walk, she was far into what was left of the woods. After a few hours she gave into hunger. Zipping open her bag she pulled out a can of spam. "Oh yay spam" Ellie muttered. This was the only food left. She had no idea if she could get more anytime soon and savored it as much as possible. After finishing, Ellie walked a bit further and peered over the large hill that overlooked the city. "Oh..." She gasped.

Name: Izzy Callis
Gender: F
Age: 18
Physical appearance: passionacademyy.webs.com/23415866-Anime_Tomboy.jpg
Personality: (Had to add it in for her!) Though she is naturally quite attractive, Izzy usually only wears the typical eyeliner and mascara; not caring to flaunt her appearance any farther. Izzy has sort of a hard demeanor and is not easily brought to tears. If someone tries to mess with her, you can be sure that she'll send it back to them ten fold. She enjoys being 'one of the guys' and typically doesn't get along with other girls her own age, seeing that she thinks that most of them are two-faced and conceited. Izzy doesn't care what people thing about her so she typically lives by her own rules.
Past: (optional) She managed to save her brother but her parents didn't listen and she couldn't save them in time... same with her little sister. ☹️


Name: Ezra Callis
Gender: M
Age: 20
Physical appearance: s260.photobucket.com/user/D_Dark_Angel01/media/anime-2.jpg.html
Past: (optional)

Can she be like... a zombie but not exactly? Let me elaborate:
She was working as a scientist and got hit by some chemicals that messed her up a bit. She's not back from the dead and she doesn't crave human flesh, but she does have sort of a hidden bloodlust and acts a little crazy... Is that okay? Just say the word and I'll delete this.
Name: Rae Caverly
Gender: F
Age: 20
Physical appearance and Personality combined: Rae is an ivory-skinned 20 year old girl with freckles dotting her face. Her hair is a fiery, bright ginger, long down to her chest. Rae has bright piercing green eyes. She is bubbly and confident, she doesn't care what people think about her mostly but she can be self conscious. She mostly wears t-shirts and skirts but she wears skinny jeans instead. Her mom died when she was 10, she got trapped under a collapsing burning building. She is deathly afraid of any fire and lived with her dad until she was 15 when he left her and disappeared. Ever since the bomb she acts very shy and aloof every now and then, having trouble fighting the urge to kill.
Past: See above.

Sorry if I made mistakes, I'm tired...

David heard the shout of hello and turned around when he exited his bunker "hello are you a survivor? I'm David" he shouted back and started toward the girl or at least he thought it was a girl who shouted. He knew exactly where his bunker was so he didn't need to worry about getting lost. When he saw her he breathed a sigh of relief "I thought I was the only one left apparently not. What's your name?" David asked the girl. "Are you hungry? I have more than just rabbit in my bunker because I had rationed my supplies when I down there for more than a day here have this" David said as he pulled off his pack an tossed a loaf of bread at her to eat and he pulled off a chunk of another loaf and ait waiting for her reply

Yeah, I wasn't really thinking when I wrote that, I needed to make up something for the sake of the roleplay ^^" Otherwise we would all be dead not long after we left our bunkers XD
Suppose we're just gonna have to pretend for this roleplay...

A huge crater stood where the city once was, a hole at least a mile wide, deep, dark. In the distance on far the outskirts of the city crumbled charred remains of apartments lay. Ellie wondered how many people had died here...So many poor, foolish, people...
There was nothing here for her. No people or anything, no point in staying. She turned away and begain to walk north. If she was lucky her country had won the war, or at least their was still some cities left elsewhere. Perhaps she could go lead a normal life somewhere else.
Ellie's stomach growled, she was starving. Further ahead their had to be some sort of forest she could hunt in. If she only walked far enough she would reach something.



This would be a perfect time for a zombie to come into the picture 😉 Just sayin...

moosecake6 • 9 December 2013 at 8:44 PM

David started toward the city after closing his pack and leaving the girl with her bread and started looking for anyone else that was still alive. Soon enough he found another girl standing at the edge of the now demolished forest "hello" he shouted to her and waited for a response.

A cold breeze blew past him, making him sway slightly on his perch. Vincent sits on the remains of a once proud building, a building he had worked in before it all happened... He felt distant... He'd not seen anyone for several days now. No one uninfected in about a year... All the uninfected had disappeared as far as he was concerned. There was no one left. Not even his brother. The thought of his brother made him cringe, and he hoped he'd never see him again, for both their sakes... He glances up at the ashen horizon, watching for movement, a rat, a rabbit, anything living... Or anything infected. He'd learned over the time that the higher up you were from the ground, the less trouble you'd have in the long run. He starts to sit up,
"I got to get to work, I'm late again." He plops back down and shakes his head. There hasn't been work since that day... But these episodes just kept coming back... He was getting worse...

---

Victor stood on a crumbled street looking for a street sign.
"This cheap city. How am I supposed to deliver mail with no addresses listed?" He'd been asking the same question frequently for the last six months. He sighs and twitches sharply to the left. "I'll just keep looking for them." He says in a dark tone, while looking to his mail bag. On its strap were dark red lines, long old stains from those he'd found... It'd been so long since he'd seen anyone.
A small smile crosses his face for only a moment before he begins walking again. He'd do his job...How he understood it...
As he walks he removes a letter opener from his belt and twirls it around in his hand and begins whistling the tune 'pop goes the weasel'.

Rae reached a hand to her head, feeling woozy and tired. She pulled her hand back down and, seeing blood, widened her eyes. She didn't like blood one bit. Latching onto the counter she pulled herslef up slowly, her eyes surveying the debris and rubble surrounding her. With a gasp she found a tiny hole in the wall, feeling a strange burst of energy power her through her the wall and she flew outside. Her right green eye began to twitch rapidly and she focused on a figure walking across the trashed ground. Rae involuntarily let out a delirious giggle and she raced to catch up, imagining what it would be like to stab a knife through her heart, the red blossoming across her shirt as she breathed her last bre- What was wrong with her? Rae had never felt so sad yet strangely happy before and a crystal drop rolled down her cheek. Pulling up beside the girl silently, she whispered, "Hey, there," in her ear with a laugh bubbling up inside.

Ezra pressed down some gauze on her arm, a red stain spreading. His breaths were rapid, feeling panicky from being in such a small space for so long. Swallowing his claustrophobia, he poured the rest of their 5th to last water bottle on top of her wound. He pulled a bloody shard of glass from her arm and gathered his courage (and a gas mask... just in case). Pressing a button, a wall lifted and he shoved wreckage out of the way, crawling out. He had to get out, even if it meant temporarily leaving Izzy. His eyes squinted at the sunlight - though it was dim. Hesitantly, he tossed the gas mask back inside and ventured further out. Izzy needed more medical attention, he needed someone with medical skills.

Edit: Oops ^^"
Ellie shuddered an odd voice that seemed to come out of nowhere whispered in her ear "Hey there" She shrieked and jumped nearly a foot in the air. "GAGH! WHO ARE YOU" She said to the girl who had scared her. Before the girl could reply a man coming from the woods shouted "Hello!" and slowly walked towards them.
