Location: Brisked Bear

It was snowfall again, with green snowflakes radiating the surrounding area. Amidst the fallen debris and wreckage, there were small shacks built by the remaining survivors before they too were taken by "them". Lots upon lots of these creatures are seen, but they all have dispersed and gone out into multiple islands to continue their ever-so-inscrutable goals.

"Hooo... Welp, guess I gotta look for somethin' to eat.." a boy said, his eyes slowly adjusting to the darkness as he woke up from his "bed", made from what seemed to be a pile of concrete bags. He looks down and wears his sandals, putting one foot at a time. Standing up, he walks over to a broken and rusty drawer infested by wood-boring beetles, where opening it reveals a stained grey shirt and a black hoodie, covering what seems to be a bouquet of white flowers and a black bullpup stock.

...

Turning on the flashlight as it makes a clicking sound, the boy trekked the wrecked buildings, still yawning as he looks on.

"Ahh... there's nothin' there, also that.... and that too..." he said, sighing as he continued.

There were so many guts and blood thrown around the city, though it never bothered him given he's used to seeing them on live television ever since the very first invasion. Though he is still disgusted by them given he's looking for food and not some edgy painting made by a serial killer- other rather... serial killers...

"The pizza was good, wish I could find 'nother jackpot like tha-"

A noise broke out of his out-loud monologue, he pulls out a modified P90 from his hip, puts the dial on full-auto, and start to **** the charging handle before letting go, the sound of metal echoing as he approaches the noise. He places his cheek on the stock, his grip unwavering as he trained his sights on whoever's going on to be on the other end of the barrel.

"Ah, shit... Here we go again..."

 

[Backbackback]

"Are we still negotiating?"

"I'm simply confirming things... Nothing more..." he replied. "Do you need anything else in exchange for me killing the dragon?"

 

[Peppersalt43]

"I'm simply confirming things... Nothing more..." he replied. "Do you need anything else in exchange for me killing the dragon?"

"Keep up good behavior. I'd like to see as little conflict as possible, for both our sakes" the leader explained

 

[Backbackback]

"Keep up good behavior. I'd like to see as little conflict as possible, for both our sakes" the leader explained

"Will do..." he nodded, "Now then... lead me to the prisoners... I wish to see them..."

 

[Magicomethkuon]

"Well, I think I understand you now" He said as he touched Dene's head with his foot, simply to see if he was alive since Dene was still on the ground

“This lamb has probably seen better days.“

(Mostly because you type at a 2 word per minute it seems, doesn't take very long to yay or nay Darren waking up dude, that's like, a 2-sentence post at most, but fine)

Palaria sighed, she wasn't willing to use more physical force and they were burning time, she moved to the prison cells where individuals such as Dene were kept, her face becoming a little disgusted as she heard Belle and Jackie

"He getting up then." Palaria said, she might be... less then enthused with any Waterboarders due to only seeing the ones that wanted her dead, but if one changed, she'd be willing to give them a chance, at the very least

“Seems that way. Did this one resist more than the others? Or is this stockpiled exhaustion from the wastelands?“

 

[DaReaperMan]

“Seems that way. Did this one resist more than the others? Or is this exhaustion from the wastelands?“

"I no there. And I no care. We need help." Palaria responded, walking forward and putting a hand on Dene's head, performing the same trick as she did on Darren, with the same counter-measure, restraining his limbs with vines, securing his body with ice, and using electricity to shock him awake without killing or hurting him

 

[Backbackback]

"Well, I think I understand you now" He said as he touched Dene's head with his foot, simply to see if he was alive since Dene was still on the ground

Dene slowly twitched as the man slowly sat up.

"Am I in....?" he rubbed his eyes as he tries to clear his blurry vision, only seeing lines of light and black silhouettes.

 

[Peppersalt43]

"Will do..." he nodded, "Now then... lead me to the prisoners... I wish to see them..."

"Our researcher is currently looking into them, ensuring no threat arises or may befall them. Best not to interrupt her"

 

[Magicomethkuon]

"I no there. And I no care. We need help." Palaria responded, walking forward and putting a hand on Dene's head, performing the same trick as she did on Darren, with the same counter-measure, restraining his limbs with vines, securing his body with ice, and using electricity to shock him awake without killing or hurting him

“No objections here.“ she observes the supernatural medical procedures. “He does seem to need more medical attention than I was expecting.“

Dene slowly twitched as the man slowly sat up.

"Am I in....?" he rubbed his eyes as he tries to clear his blurry vision, only seeing lines of light and black silhouettes.

“Palaria certainly works fast. Are you seeing things clearly? Can you hear us well?“

 

[DaReaperMan]

Dene slowly twitched as the man slowly sat up.

"Am I in....?" he rubbed his eyes as he tries to clear his blurry vision, only seeing lines of light and black silhouettes.

"You not dead. Need help." Palaria said, reaching a hand out and putting it on his shoulder,

 

[DaReaperMan]

“Palaria certainly works fast. Are you seeing things clearly? Can you hear us well?“

"I work fast to help me survive." Palaria said, her tone giving away that she did not like the treatment of people here

 

[Backbackback]

“Palaria certainly works fast. Are you seeing things clearly? Can you hear us well?“

"You not dead. Need help." Palaria said, reaching a hand out and putting it on his shoulder,

In a knee-jerk reaction, he tries to materialize guns behind him, all aimed toward the two.

"W- who the **** are you!? D- don't tell me my beloved Noah got hurt! 'Cuz if yo-"

Suddenly, blood spurted from his nose and mouth, causing him to cough due to his sudden movement as well as his over usage of Contraband, making the crystal weapons dissipate as he clutched his chest in pain.

Palaria didn't even bat an eye, she knew he was in no state to try and fight at this second

"Where Noah. She calm him down." Palaria said to Belle, motioning for her to go get Noah, gently putting some water into Dene's mouth to wash out the blood and further heal his internal wounds and ease the pain. But she did tighten the vines a little, she didn't survive off of being careless, after all

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

"Prince Charming, how charming," Jackie teased, looking at the boy who was devastated by their fight.

"Who knows where your sweetheart is, she's probably outside, I don't know, today new ones have arrived."

(Just saying, no one don't know who is Noah as such)

 

[Magicomethkuon]

"I work fast to help me survive." Palaria said, her tone giving away that she did not like the treatment of people here

“Everyone likes fast learners.“ long ago has she learned to not expect five star hotels from a dead earth. And she knew that Palaria did as well, regardless of her reservations.

In a knee-jerk reaction, he tries to materialize guns behind him, all aimed toward the two.

"W- who the **** are you!? D- don't tell me my beloved Noah got hurt! 'Cuz if yo-"

Suddenly, blood spurted from his nose and mouth, causing him to cough due to his sudden movement as well as his over usage of Contraband, making the crystal weapons dissipate as he clutched his chest in pain.

“Easy. At this rate your own weapon will kill you before we lift a finger. And we don't plan to.“ this wasn't work of the RR alone. This shed more light on the situation and how easily defeated they were. “Even without context of the comms, one look at you and I know that you have been snowballing the use of Contraband.“

Palaria didn't even bat an eye, she knew he was in no state to try and fight at this second

"Where Noah. She calm him down." Palaria said to Belle, motioning for her to go get Noah, gently putting some water into Dene's mouth to wash out the blood and further heal his internal wounds and ease the pain. But she did tighten the vines a little, she didn't survive off of being careless, after all

“You're well informed for someone who just told me that she wasn't there. Who is this Noah?“ she asks as a matter of formality, but by process of elimination it could only be the one captured piece not yet known. “Very well. I guess I can.“ off she goes.

 

[DaReaperMan]

"Prince Charming, how charming," Jackie teased, looking at the boy who was devastated by their fight.

"Who knows where your sweetheart is, she's probably outside, I don't know, today new ones have arrived."

(Just saying, no one don't know who is Noah as such)

"Shut!" Palaria snapped instantly

"What she look like. Sound like?" Palaria gently asked Dene

 

[Magicomethkuon]

(Just saying, no one don't know who is Noah as such)

(Noah is the only name left out of the group, so it can be deduced that she's the “person“ in the remaining cell.)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

"Shut!" Palaria snapped instantly

"She Waterboarder or human?" Palaria gently asked Dene

(Bro, you cannot assume this, why would Palaria say this)

 

[DaReaperMan]

(Bro, you cannot assume this, why would Palaria say this)

(She... literally just asked if Noah was Waterboarder or human lol)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(She... literally just asked if Noah was Waterboarder or human lol)

(I mean, why she would ask this?)

 

[DaReaperMan]

(I mean, why she would ask this?)

(Because she wants Noah in there to try and calm Dene, since he mentioned her by name)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(Because she wants Noah in there to try and calm Dene, since he mentioned her by name)

(This not mean nothing for character deduce that)

 

[DaReaperMan]

(This not mean nothing for character deduce that)

(Deduce what, Palaria guessed on gender, was told the name, and is asking if shes Waterboarder or human lol shes not deducing shit)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(Deduce what, Palaria guessed on gender, was told the name, and is asking if shes Waterboarder or human lol shes not deducing shit)

(Dene: I'm in a relationship.
Your first question: Human or alien?)

 

[Magicomethkuon]

(Dene: I'm in a relationship.
Your first question: Human or alien?)

(POV: Telling your best friends that you're not single.)

 

[DaReaperMan]

(Dene: I'm in a relationship.
Your first question: Human or alien?)

(I mean, yeah, those the kinda questions that gotta be asked lol)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(I mean, yeah, those the kinda questions that gotta be asked lol)

(I just feel like this is out of place, even as you has written to Palaria, I feel like this is a bit meta, and don't say it's the only cell that hasn't been opened, because Palaria hasn't met several members of the group yet)

 

[DaReaperMan]

(I just feel like this is out of place, even as you has written to Palaria, I feel like this is a bit meta, and don't say it's the only cell that hasn't been opened, because Palaria hasn't met several members of the group yet)

(I mean... why wouldnt she ask that? She doesnt know who Noah is or what she is other then Dene cares about her lol)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(I mean... why wouldnt she ask that? She doesnt know who Noah is or what she is other then Dene cares about her lol)

(Okay, I'm not going to continue with this)

 

[DaReaperMan]

(Okay, I'm not going to continue with this)

(I'm glad you told me your issue man either way)

 

[InfiniteDay]

(I'm glad you told me your issue man either way)

Just edit the comment so that it actually makes sense and isn't just a meta question. You can ask it later if you get actual info on Noah.

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(Agree)

(How does it not make sense? Palaria knows nothing on Noah beyond name lmfao)

 

[Oliver_de_jesus]

(How does it not make sense? Palaria knows nothing on Noah beyond name lmfao)

(that doesn't mean she has to ask if she's human or not, it would be better if she ask something like how she look, bro it's common sense)

 

[DaReaperMan]

(that doesn't mean she has to ask if she's human or not, it would be better if she ask something like how she look, bro it's common sense)

(Palaria knows Waterboarders can take a human form as well Oliver, shes dealt with the ******* repeatedly for over a decade lol)

 

[LaserPrecision]

(Palaria knows Waterboarders can take a human form as well Oliver, shes dealt with the ******* repeatedly for over a decade lol)

(I think to summarize their gripe; while the question isn't completely unjustified, it's unrealistic to think the partner of a human in this world would be anything BUT a human. Human, Waterboarder relationships are a super small exception. With Dene and Noah being the only case throughout the entire history of Waterboarders. So they think it would be more realistic for her to ask about other details rather than if they're human or waterboarder)

"Don't you ******* touch me..!" he exclaimed, his voice trembling as he tries to get up, only for his body to reject him.

"Calm down kid, you will only end up doing yourself more and more damage"

 

[Backbackback]

"Calm down kid, you will only end up doing yourself more and more damage"

"Don't you dare say that to me..." he replied, "You... you monsters.."
