Swathing & Torlikoff's Fragment Collectors: ACT ONE

[SwathingDegenera777]

You recall a gas entering your nose, leaving you unable to remember anything. You can't remember why and it feels like you've just been given the biggest hangover of all time. you feel horrid, the strings of your body like almost severed by the likes of a retro-ASCII knife like so: []++++||=======>. KILL IT WITH FIRE, Spare me from the stabbing it does upon the likes of my eyes, much like a ASC-

...

What was in that gas? You certainly don't remember talking like this at any point in your life or anyone talking like this for that matter. Looking around, you see several very oddly dressed others in a similar situation with them waking up. You realize that you seem to be in a large black room with water covering the floor.

[PsychoWarper]

"Damn" I groan before thinking 'Cant I sleep some more'.

 

[Overlord775]

[


Don't mind me. Imma gonna see where this goes.


]

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"It was only a matter of time before I got mugged, I suppose it's only natural, but did they really have to knock me out" was the first thing that came to mind as my eyes adjusted to my surroundings

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

I yawn and rub my eyes. "Is it morning already?"

 

[SwathingDegenera777]

A distinct 'whirring' sound is emanated forth from all four corners in tandem, oscillating together to create one grand 'whirr', if even these cameras were a mere SECOND off, the result sound sent throughout the air of the room would be a disorganized mesh.


Point is, a sound has emanated from the corners of the room.


[FYI, any GM responses that are descriptive of the environment/aren't GM-controlled characters will be italicized, just so you know]

 

[PsychoWarper]

"So loud" I say as I cover my ears.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"who said that?, were you also mugged and whats that noise," I say as I rub my eyes and try to find my way around the area with a blurred vision

 

[SwathingDegenera777]

As the gas's layiance of claim upon your biofaculties ceases, the room's details become clearer.

To start, it's completely black, like I'm not talking African American Black, which is in actuality just a scale of varying shades of brown, I'm talking "Actual Absence of Light Black". In other words, it's weird.

A Brown Table lies in the center of the room, now, if we were using "Black" In reference to "Brown", THIS would be "African American Black", but since it's not actually black, it kinda does this weird clashing/blending into the background, and that's not even MENTIONING the water pouring into the room. You COULD figure out where it's coming from, but yall still be hungover as hell from this weird gas

 

[Torlikoff]

[In actually readable terms:] Looking around the room, you see that a large metallic door lies at the corner, and a table is in the center of the room. Several cameras watch you from the ceiling that's too high for you to reach. A vest covered in explosives is on the table, along with what appears to be a button. You see pipes spilling out water on the ground.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

As my eyes finally adjust the first thing I see is my fellow captive followed by the table, the pipes, the camera's and finally the door.

"I think you thieves have taken this far enough, stop now or ill be forced to call the authorities" I shouted while pointing towards the camera

 

[Torlikoff]

There is no response. The cameras continue their pattern. Water continues to pour into the room from the pipes.

 

[PsychoWarper]

[That whole afrian american black might be a bad thing to say]

Where am I? I think while sitting up scatching my head and looking around the room.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"Hello do you hear me" The anxiety and desperation in my voice abundantly clear

 

[Torlikoff]

Nothing. The camera continues its cycle.

 

[PsychoWarper]

It seems there are others are here to... this isnt gonna be good... is it? I think to myself as I let out a sigh.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

I gulp and sprint towards the steel door, my mind continues to race as this thought pops into my mind "This is just like that horror film i watched the other day, with creepy puppet and junk"

 

[Torlikoff]

[Saw ain't got nothing on this boi.]

 

[PsychoWarper]

[PL does]

I look at the guy running at the door Tsk hes only going to make things worse.

[If a post is itanlic and has no "_" then its my characters thoughts]

 

[Torlikoff]

[Fair enough.]

You begin to notice that the water has begun to fill up the room, it just barely being above the soles of your feet.

 

[PsychoWarper]

I stand up and look down at the water then at the pipes ''Thats gonna be an issue''.

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

I notice the water rising. "I'd rather not swim today....or drown..."

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

I grab the handle of the door and try to pull the door open.

 

[Torlikoff]

The handle snaps off, but the door itself doesn't budge.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"oh shit"I slowly walk back, my legs turn to jelly as the realization hits me. "were going to die"

 

[PsychoWarper]

I walk over to the pipes and insepct the opening'' Tsk what a hassle''.

 

[Torlikoff]

[Giving up already? There's still stuff none of you have touched.]

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

I stare at the table. "I hope nobody has to put this on..."

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"How can you people be so calm about this!, we are going to die" I shout with a panic in my voice. "this isn't some anime where you're protected by plot armor!!" I elaborate. "wait...this is a dream..right?"

 

[Torlikoff]

You see writing on the vest, but it's too dark to make out. All you can read is "4 k lo g ms"

The water continues.

 

[PsychoWarper]

I walk over to the vest and try to read it.

 

[Torlikoff]

You see writing on the vest, but it's too dark to make out. All you can read is "4 k lo g ms"

Further attempts only let you see that the 4 was actually a 40. It's too dark to see the rest.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

I walk towards the pipes and gather some water using my hands and splash my face with it. "wake up, Wake up, Wake up, Wake up"

 

[Torlikoff]

The water is filthy. You don't wake up.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"Please don't kill us!, please I beg you" I shout, waving my hands at the camera

 

[Torlikoff]

Nothing happens with the camera.

[There are other things than the camera man.]

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

I sigh "Very Well" my tone completely changing. " I guess the anxiety-driven coward mask doesn't seem to evoke any kind of response" I walk towards Jackson. " do you have a plan? or are you winging it

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

[@Tor, I know]

 

[PsychoWarper]

"Ugh I currently dont have a plan but the vest seems to say 40 kilo grams" I say to the man(we dont know each other names yet) as I continue to inspect the vest.

 

[Torlikoff]

Further inspection turns up what appears to be a pull cord and a remote.

There is other text but it is impossible to make out in the current light.
