The Last Survivors *Reboot RP Thread*

[Hylian_Monolith]

((...say what now why))

It only took a moment for the zombies to react to Kira's appearance--despite appearances, the drug was what was infecting them, and they were equally as strong and fast as Kira.

Those are First Gen zombies... First Gen, they were indeed. There was no way she could take down three at once. Could she?

Parrying one attack with her bracer arm and kicking another to the wall--she matched them in speed somehow, perhaps even excelled--she swung her hammer, claw-first, at the neck of the third. The sharp claw dug into teh zombie's neck, and it let out a strange scream. Ignoring the high-pitched cry, Kira yanked the hammer back towards her, and like a craftsman pulling out a nail, she tore the creature's throat out.

Releasing the hammer and letting the zombie collapse, she punched another across the jaw. It didn't to much but stun it, but the half-metal fingers would have made a deep and nasty mark in any human's skin. And yet the one she'd mostly ignored save her powerful roundhouse was already shambling back towards her.

She completely ignored it.

Her hand shot into the air, and the hammer returned to it. Completely disregarding Shannon, Kristine, and the now-fleeing Cyrus, she went straight for the other cryogenic chamber in teh room--one that was only noticeable now that Kira targeted it--and struck with both hands on her hammer. Cracks webbed the surface of the thick glass.

Again. She made contact with the ice this time, and the long-forgotten emergency meltdown systems kicked in, causing the ice to start melting rapidly. A barely visible shape within started to move...

As the glass skidded across the floor, what happened to teh other cry chamber became clearer. Kira had destroyed it, as well--possibly with the very same hammer.

((long post is long. But yeah.))

Upon hearing the loud crash, Shannon runs to the scene only to see something on the floor and Kira still enraged.

"Kira!" Shannon yells as he runs up to her, "You need to try to calm down!" He tries to lower his voice as he gets within feet of her...

((It's more a reference back to the original one where Cyrus and another character [who I sadly did not use, though I liked him] were both working at the facility that developed the drug. Anyway, I wanted to play around with it and see where it went in this one.))


Cyrus fired round after round, but most missed. The ones that did hit, only worked somewhat, staggering and occasionally felling a few of them. He dropped his pistol and hoisted his shotgun, moving to sidestep attacks as he did.

"Dammit, dammit, dammit!" he yelled. His dodging was putting him at an increased disadvantage and he knew it wouldn't be long until one of them got him.

"She'd better be worth saving," he said, "Cause I'm not doing this for my health. Hey Shannon, a little help over here?!"

 

[Hylian_Monolith]

Kira stood straight upright upon hearing a voice. A voice--it was familair--was it? The speaker was addressing her...

Close. He was too close! He had to stay back!

She looked straight at him, a cruel and furious, dark gleam in her eye. The look of a predator. With the mechanical arm, she lashed out, her tight robotic fist aiming to make sharp contact with his jaw.

 

[Johnny Sooshi]

Cyrus managed to hold enough off but just as he turned back to face Shannon and Kira, he heard a resounding crack. He looked at Kira and saw her fist had made contact with Shannons jaw, and he was sent reeling. Cyrus watched in confusion and then yelled, "What the hell do you think you're doing?!"


((Cause random Cyrus outbursts are random))

 

[Go_Skyward]

Shannon had no time to react. He hear nothing everything went blank for a second. The next thing Shannon knew, he was on the ground... he was bleeding.

A figure... it was moving... slowly...

(damn my foreshadowing is bad...)

 

[Hylian_Monolith]

Kira stopped for a second. Slowly, she opened her fist, looking at the hand.

There was blood on her metal knuckles.

She stared at it, uncertain, eyes wide. Not in control, still berserking, but still... confused. How...what..?

She heard somebody scream something at her, but it was distant...

 

[Johnny Sooshi]

Cyrus was yelling incoherently at this point. He himself couldn't take anymore between Kira, Shannon, and the zombies, he'd had enough. He collapsed to the floor, lying up against the wall in the fetal position.

"How did all this happen and I not know about it?" Cyrus whispered. "I was stationed here. How? It....it doesn't make....sense."

He looked around the room. Corpses lay on the ground and blood was everywhere.

"We....we were told we'd be guarding something important....how? I don't...."

 

[Go_Skyward]

Shannon felt like he was going to pass out... but he knew he couldn't. He had to find a way to help Kira... but it was in so much pain he couldn't move.

The figure from the shadows, the one Kira had had so "kindly" freed. The figure stood up and saw a woman, Kira, she looked angry and confused. He then saw a man on the ground, bleeding. There were zombies piling through the door. The man shook his head, this was really a r00d awakening, but he knew what he needed to do. He ran over to Kira, placing both his hands firmly on his shoulders, "Listen to me!" He yelled at her, "You need to calm down." He looked her dead in the eyes, "If we don't want to die. If you don't want him to die, help me out here!"

 

[Hylian_Monolith]

Kira looked into his eyes. A strange red-blue, like two different irises were trying to be the same eye... and there was pain. A strange pain, and an understanding that there was only one way to handle the situations at hand.

A look that so often mirrored her own.

Gradually, she stopped hyperventilating. The tension left her body, little by little, and the sanity returned to her eyes.

"I--Shannon--" she choked out. "Cyrus..." She took hold of one of his wrists, feeling nauseous, like she was about to fall over. She looked around for a moment, made a retching sound in the back of her throat, and looked at him again. "..What the... you're--you're alive?"

((We're ignoring Cyrus Sorry, DH, we'll be there shortly.))

 

[Go_Skyward]

The figure sighed happily as Kira calmed down. "Good, you're done... berserking." He then looked over at Shannon then up at the door, "But we have other problems then me being dead or alive right now."

Shannon looked up, he saw the figure... it reminded him of someone he knew, but maybe that was being punched messing with his mind...

The figure then looked around for a weapon as he released Kira from his grasp. "You remember my name, right?"

(yeah, we'll save you, DH xD.)

((inb4 Vince aka Blood Killer XD))

 

[Hylian_Monolith]

She pushed a hand up on her forehead, tugging her bangs in confusion. "Kind of. You were...Bio/Psycho 6 right? That's..." She snapped her fingers. "Lance! Er, Vince... what do they call you now?" She waved a had, bending to pick up her hammer. "Forget it. You're right, we've got bigger fish to fry!"

Just as she started to stand, she saw Shannon. Badly wounded, bleeding on his jaw, his eyes were half-closed...

"Oh God. What the hell did I do..." she muttered. "...You. Whatever they call you. Please tell me I didn't..."

 

[Go_Skyward]

((inb4 Vince aka Blood Killer XD))

(hahahaa. Yes and No xD)

"Lance, but I'll explain things later." 'Lance' then shrugs, "I don't know. I wasn't awake, but he looks like he'll be okay." He then looks around but not finding any weapons he grabbed some glass off the ground and threw it at a zombie, killing it. "...Oh. Nice." He then looks back at Kira, "K1R4. I'll fend off these ones, there is probably more outside, go kill them. Go! Now!" He continues to throw glass shards at zombies.

Shannon groans from the ground, signifying he's okay... sort of.

 

[Hylian_Monolith]

Kira almost sighed in relief. "God, don't scare me like that, Shannon." She paused for a moment, suddenly feeling the urge to hug him... or soemthing. "...Ever." She took his hand on a whim, squeezed it as a slight comfort, and stood, running to the door. "Cyrus, get up if you can, we've got company!" She rested a hand on teh curled-up man's shoulder for a moment, then made a break down the hallways trusting... Lance, for now, to take care of the ones in front of the door.

Kirinen/Keriki~

Of course there were zombies inside the facility. Of course they were inside and not outside. Because that was so logical--and ironic--that it gave her a migraine.

She was firing as fast as she can, but the zombies ere ridiculously pwoerful--far stronger than any other she'd yet seen. Five arrows, five perfect shots, only barely took down one. Without Cyrus, Shannon, and Kira, they didn't ahve much of a chance.

Keriki lingered behind Kirinen, confused by the weird people who were coming towards them. Kirinen insisted that they were mean, but it didn't make sense to Keriki. Sure, they stumbled, but they seemed to react like people when they were hurt... just more...what was the word Kirinen used? Endurant?

What did that even mean?
