"She Da Devil"

Vicky heard Billy’s shot but saw no strikes in her field of view but she did see a guy with a shotgun among the raiders and it was a drum fed semiauto think he could make better cover between shots; he forgot or didn’t know there were 2 rifles looking down.

SNAP!

Went the enfield sending another 30/06 round down range to enter his left ear and pop out his right eye.

It was another perfect shot won after hours, weeks, months, and years of dedication to never wasting a shot for making another problem allowing a downed foe to become a Risen by her hand. Many who watched the yearly competition with black powder and saw the display of the Marksmen mistook accuracy as showing off which it was at competition but here it was a business that required precision because unless they were lucky she and Billy had 100 rounds each to last till their return.

She had to check fire at that point as she saw a close silhouette cross her field as an unfocused blur.

That’s when she saw a black haired girl and about 8 kids of mixed sex and under 10 above 6 years old. The girl was running at an angle to her and Billy’s position and would soon be behind them and the kids out of the battle field.

”Billy NCBs east west moving through our forward cover she said calmly but felt a pain maternal tug her to see them safe and protected as she made sure her partner had them registered

Slackers...You Figure it Out

"I'm not heartless just a Slacker who wants to get by on only what is required with the least effort.

If everyone gets sick then I have to constantly disinfect clean up and well work my rear off; I hate it.

I only perform a logical function to limit your chances of cross infection; part of that is shortening your recovery time" said Mandy as her fingers fly across the keys of her laptop at 115 wp.

and the music shifts



"Did you know that during a ritual a Voodoo worshiper is filled by Loa, lwa and the like which compel the person to either act like an animal or a lust filled being.

Some believe its possible to make people into a living zombie kind of like the date rape drugs work but on a more permanent level and one of the key ingredients is a fungus? "

Mandy stands when the normally dull-witted algorithm picks a good song to follow.
Her hips begin to sway in slow arcs like a belly dancer

"Then there's what I discovered about hormonal levels and their effect on viruses.

You see the immediate effect of altering the body chemistry is to shift the power of those antibodies native to the body as compared to an invader.

I read somewhere that long ago to help a king or hero recover it sometimes only took a dance from a young woman. They attributed the effect to a goddesses intervention but I believe it was active body chemistry"

Mandy pulls a box of tissues from the box and sets them on the Table

"Can't have you making everyone sick"

Then she goes and fetches an extra wastebasket for the tissues

"Don't get used to it and try not to cough into the room

Don't need another Tamako Maru"

Then she returns to her spot behind the bar and washes her hands and mixes herself a lemon punch

Mandy sees Mason's condition and stands, exits into her apartments at the back and returns with a cardboard box the says Coughing Sickos and sets it down on the table with him removes an electronic thermometer and a case of sleaves pops a new one on then without asking plugs it in the guys mouth after which she pulls out a vaporizer and starts it up. Once those things are done she pulls the beeping machines and reads it before pulling out a nice collection of cold medicines

"100.4 degrees" she says as she walks away and back around the counter where she reaches into her private stock and pours the guy some Lemon juice, spring water, honey, and a shot of whiskey which she stirs on her way back to him.

"Here drink"

The Ultra Moderns (stylish celebrity supers role-playing)

I'd love to alter a character I have that uses her Magnetic abilities working for the world space agency lifting/descending orbital packages, studies of the Van Allen Belts and the effect of Cosmic particles and other such.

Jesse only uses violence to counter violence directed at her or in her location

She was trained by the Military and then declared herself a limited Pacifist the only limit to full Pacifism

Oh and she's sort of a Meta Elitist who doesn't mix intimately with normals saying it is her duty as a female of her new race to increase their number

DC New Generation of Heroes

Wow I so want to have the good Commander meet Photon but think that two Lightbenders would be a bit much

Tonight is a free-for-all Kill off the Raiders, capture them and someone can even chase down "The Duke" and bring him back alive

Not interested in a collaborative but if you guys want have at because I'm thinking of putting on a size limit to such things. I think the huge posts are making the story hard to follow for those who were absent of the event

Doug Simpson (The Duke) had drug his men away from their fort which was a beached barge 15 miles up river from Arlington and headed for the town for fun and plunder both of which he had to give his men on occasion or have them turn on them. Thirty-three years old he’d been a teen and bully when it had all gone to hell.

He’d been lucky and found safety in the town of Ayer which had been only a subdivision before the fall of man. It was a small community and easy for his mentor and former boss Harry Lysander to take control of forcing the weak into slavery to the gang’s whims.

It had lasted for about 4 years till there had been a power struggle between himself and ole Harry but during their infighting they had somehow managed to burn it all down and scatter the slaves they had held sway over.

Forced from their comfort he gathered up the few men left who’d listen to him and hunted down anyone near his base taking what he wanted and even recruiting from the survivors till he had a pack of bloodthirsty dogs who’d kill or torture anyone their master told them to.

The dead had made his profession as a bandit raider like a wolf hunting in a sandy desert and several times he and his men had nearly starved and he’d been forced to eat their horses but they were still alive and hungry.

Two months ago they’d caught an old man and were about to kill him when he told them of how he’d come across a town that was fat and happy 25 miles down river so he’d sent some of the boys to check it out.

They’d come back with fresh women and goods as proof of the old man’s snitch telling the Duke of a large community made almost entirely of women and children as well as a good fortified position on the river that overlooked one highway and had another dead end at it.

His boys had almost mutinied and headed to the town a few days ago but The Duke knew even women in a well fortified position could chew up too many of his small force and he couldn’t afford to lose even 3 of them till he found better replacements. The Duke knew that if he was weakened too much another raider group could come along and eat them as they’d eaten others.

So he’d waited and used the fresh women to entertain his men and extract information from the women once their spirits had been crushed and what he’d found out made him a very happy man.

They had marched downstream for two days leaving only four of their number back at the barge to watch over the new girls and hold the position till he captured Arlington and could use it.

The march had been uneventful and he’d gotten to within a mile of the town and sent three guys over the hill to attack the gate on hwy 19 when his main force distracted the town’s defenders and everything was going well till suddenly two of his men were dropped by gunfire that was so accurate both were head strikes and the report of the weapons maybe two or three seconds after they fell.

This wasn’t supposed to be happening, the people of Arlington were farmers armed with as many as 14 shotguns and maybe on small rifle but his men had been killed by something bigger. Was their another bigger and badder Raiding party out here and they saw him as a threat? Doug didn’t know but he did know that they were in a bad way so like any Bully he turned tail and ran urging his old horse to flee at it’s best speed without even calling to his own men to retreat.
