Your neck hurts slightly as you open your eyes and conciousness floods your brain.  As you sit up, the sounds of screams and guns fills your ears.

Opening your eyes, you see that you're behind a large row of sandbags.

As I look around I notice I still have my ninja gear and my ninja-to, shurikens, and laptop. I kneel down record the recent events in my laptop and think to myself.

I am dressed like a ninja in a place that looks like world war 2 !? WTF!?

I run through cautiosly trying to figure what is going on.

OoC: whats going on and who's side am I on.

As you record the events in your laptop, the sound of a large vehicle coming towards you startles you.  The next thing you know, a large jeep with a gun on the back pulls up.  A black soldier dressed in combat armour (with metal plating) leans out of the driver's seat and looks at you.

"I don't know who you are, but if you want to survive this, marine, you'll want to hop into that gunner's seat!  Double-time, you pansy!"

OoC: Who knows!?

:D

I don't even know all that much about this world yet!  *cough*PT, hurry up!*cough*

I look at the emblem on the outfit of the man and notice he is a sergeant.

"Sir! May I have a gun sir!? my gun has been missing sir!"

I walk up to him hopefull to recieve one and then after I do (or don't) I hop in the back.

The sargeant reaches into the side seat and tosses you a gun.  "Battle rifle, son," he says as he notices your questioning eye.  "Now hop in that turret!"

As you move to the turret, you notice that your shoes are clinking against the ground.  When you look down, you notice that the ground you're walking on is a pure metal.  To your surprise, the ground is the same metal as far as you can see.

OoC: Who said this was Halo?  :D

And you only got one 36 round clip, by the way.  3-shot bursts.

OoC: dude I neve said it was halo note the "if"

I hopped into the turret place and told him "Ok lets do this"

I find it odd that there is metal everywhere but I don't question it, I jsut accept it and kill anyone who doesn't wear the same garb as this guy.

The jeep sets off, the tires spinning but then catching the metal and driving.  From your higher vantage point, you see skirmishes happening down below on lower areas of land.

As you drive, you soon see someone in an all-green metal suit of armor.  You begin firing the gun, and it obviously catches the person in surprise.  Yellow light flickers around the suit as you hit the man, and then the light dissapears and your bullets rip through the armour.  The person falls, and the next thing you know, the jeep stops and the sargeant is looking at you.

"What do you think you're doing!?"  He yells at you angrily.

OoC: You said anyone not wearing the same garb...

OoC: meh

"Sir, Shoot first ask questions later, didn't recognize as a friend and therefore fired."


OoC:dude....

The Sarge shakes his head.  "Get in the side seat, son, and don't fire at anyone unless I tell you to."

OoC: You said... and the GE roll, man.

"Sir, yes, SIR!"

OoC: Whats a GE roll, and I said...what did I say, I have said a lot of things.

You hop in the side site and the sarge takes off again, eyeing you warily as he does so.

Pretty soon, you notice that you're coming upon a makeshift camp.  Sandbags litter the area, and a few people are gathered around the main area.  One of which is a person wearing the same green armour as the one you killed earlier.

As you look around at the people, you start to get an intense feeling of deja vu... almost as though you've seen everyone here somewhere else.

OoC: General effect.  It basically decided who you killed.  ;)

I walk up to a few of them, ignoring the deja vu feeling and say, "Hey, err I hit my head pretty hard back there, I can't quite remember everything, and I think I was knocked out for quite a bit.  I was with my platoon then woke up and everyone was gone.  Can anyone here run me through the basics of firing this weapon, perhaps provide some ammo?"

"Most of us don't remember much, besides that we're here," one of them says.  A tall man is standing before you wearing a white gi.  A black belt adorned his waist and a red one his forehead.  His sleeves were ripped off and he was wearing leather bracers.  "My name's Ryu, anyways.  The chief over there," Ryu said as he pointed at the person in the green armour.  "Seems to know most about what's going on.  I suggest you talk to him."

I walk over to the person in green armor and ask, "could you tell me what is going on here? I hit my head back there and can't remember how to use my weapon effiently, can you give me a run down on it?"

OoC: Ryu? very nice.

The person looks down at you, and the voice of a man comes out of the armour.  "Just point and click, not much to it.  Make sure the safety's off, though," he informs you as he shows you where the switch is.  "If you need to reload," he quickly shows you how to reload.  "That's it."

"Ok, thanks, err can you tell me what is going on? Are we waiting for someone or something to happen?"

I look around trying to get a better understanding of the current terrain and wait for the man to answer.

"We're waiting for--here's here."  The man turns his head, and you follow him.  Coming up over a hill is an old man with a pure white beard, white robes, long white hair, and a tall white staff.  He is riding upon a pure white horse as well.

He descends the hill and the horse trots slowly into your group with him on top.

I stand there as the guy comes in...I ask the guy in green armor.."who is this guy? and what is with all the whiteness?"


OoC:Doesn't anyone find it odd that I am wearing ninja garb?

OoC: Well, let's give a quick overview of everyone else in the group...

IC: -There's Ryu and his garb
-The Sarge
-The guy in green armour
-The new guy
-Someone who you think is Spiderman
-Vars from your first world (he's way on the other side and hasn't noticed you, nor you him at this point)

Nah, you're not that odd.

As your group is standing around, and before the guy in green armour has a chance to respond, you here a few hushed whispers come from behind you.  As you turn around and look, you see a ball of what looks like pure lightning floating towards you.  It's roughly five feet off the ground and three feet wide at its widest point.

A voice comes out, reverberating strangely as though it's almost a chorus saying it.  "Do you know why you're here?"  He asks the group.  The new guy dressed in white (who looks like some strange old wizard) nods his head, but the rest remain silent.  "This is the Warplain, friends.  This is where the final battle between good and evil is taking place."

He pauses and then continues.  "Over on the other side of that hill, a battle is currently taking places between my forces and that of evil.  I need you to assist my forces, for if we lose that position, we lose a position that has taken years to take."

OoC:since when do I think a guy is spiderman? and the new guy I assume that is gandalf?...

OVERVIEW:
Gandalf the white
Ryu
Sarge
a Spartan
vars(he is there?)
and a guy in ninja garb....WTF!?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hmm, unlike the ninja world I think I might switch sides on this one, I shall see how it goes and do what I can to save my rear end.

I nod my head in agreement, and wait to go to battle.

Yes, Vars is there (although neither you nor him have seen each other).  And there is a guy dressed as Spiderman.  And, yes, it is supposed to be quite a mucked-up group.  Also, I'm sick of calling the guy in greem armour... well, that.  Going with Chief from now on.

;)

Anyways...

The ball of lightning holds his position for a few moments, and no one speaks up during that time.  "Very well," he says to the group.  "Be on your way to the fight, and good luck to you all."  The being dissapears in a puff of smoke, and your group is left alone.

"All right, you maggots!  Saddle up!"  The Sarge yells as he hops into the warthog.  On the other side of a camp, you notice a large hummer which you instantly recognize as Vars' (who is hopping into the driver's seat).  The Chief hops into the gunner seat on the warthog, and everyone else is either heading out or boarding their own method of transportation.

"Hey, Avahaur!"  You hear a shout.  As you look, you see it's Vars.  "Want to take the gun?  I promise not to go over an incredible drop again," he says, smiling.

I yell towards him as I run over there, "sure, just one question..." I hop in the gunner seat "When we last met, you got out of the hummer and pushed me over the edge, so...how did you die? Did you jump after me? or what happened?"

"No, I hopped back in."  He smiled.  "Normally I don't kill myself in a world, but I had been trekking around that place for a couple days and there was nothing there whatsoever."  He guns the engine and the hummer takes off.

The warthog-with Ryu now in the side seat-keeps pace beside Vars' hummer, and Gandalf is riding along on his horse.  You don't know where Spidey is, though.

As you crest the hill, Vars slows down slightly and you see the battle ahead.  Lightning, bullets, and arrows are all flying between what looks like a vicious melee.  You can't tell very much which side you're supposed to defend, but it's obvious that one side is losing.  On the side that's winning at the moment, a gigantic spider (think 3-4 times the size of Shelob) is walking slowly and appearing to order the men around.

Your group charges down the hill, obviously going straight for that spider.

I shoot the turret at the spider hoping to do some damage....based on the size of him (the spider) I am pretty sure they should hit.

Your bullets seem to hit the spider for the most part.  The spider turns, uttering a piercing cry.  It begins charging towards your group, and the Chief in the warthog begins firing at it as well.

I continue to fire at the spider, but also change the postion in my feet slightly so that shouls I need to hop out to get out of the way of its maw and  save my rear end for a bit I can do so.

"HEY VARS!" I yell up front to him. "PULL BACK A BIT AND LETS WAIT HERE THAT WAY IF YOU FACE THE BACK END TOWARD THE SPIDER, AS SOON AS IT GETS CLOSE WE CAN DART OUT OF HERE AND SAVE OURSELVES!"

I continue to fire at the giant spider.

Vars' head appears out of the window, looking slightly shocked.  He shook his head.  To make his intentions even more clear, he sped up slightly, continuing towards the spider.

The spider picks up speed as well, and you're now roughly 100 metres away.

OoC: I am going to take advice from the OoC Board...yes I am going to run

I am disappointed at vars speeding up so as we reach 50 meters away I jump out of the back and run the other way to bury myself amongst dead bodies to gather ammo, and to hide myslef amongst the dead.

Jumping off, again?  Okay, let's see what the dice say...

Ooh, sorry about that, buddy.

When you hit the ground, you hear a sickening crunch and you fall down.  As you look at your leg, you see that one of the bones in your shin is protruding out.  You broke it... badly.

Everyone is rushing towards the spider, who has reared on its hind legs and uttered a high-pitch scream that makes your ears hurt.  You feel a small trickle of liquid and you realize one of your ears is bleeding.

However, where you land, you do find two clips for the battle rifle.

OoC: Meh so I die, you expected it anyway, I am not dead yet, but a more of a "hit-and-run" tactic, got myself a battle rifle with some ammo, I have some shurikens, and I have a ninja-to.  I think I am good for now.

I ignore the pain as much as I can and try to crawl my way through dead bodies to salvage what remains I can that can help me in future worlds.  If there is one thing that I have learned...it is how to deal with pain...

As you crawl along, you stumble across a soldier with a red cross on his arm.  When you look to see what he's carrying, you realize he was a medic.

Behind you, the spider continues to battle your "friends."

OoC: I assume this guy is a dead medic...heh a slavaging I will go, a salvaging I will go, do do dododoo a salvaging I will go.  Should he be alive I'd ask him to gomme some morphine or something but...


I pillage the dead medic's medical gear and find unused stuff..clearly indicating he had come well prepared for a battle like this. I turn around and see my "comrads" fighting the spider...I shrug and continue to pillage dead bodies to see what I can find, I also decide that rather than taking stuff indivisually I will just take out the trash in the medic's bag and use it to carry stuff I find.

OoC: Is there anything wrong with me pillaging a medic's gear and ninja'ing his sack to carry stuff with me?

You find a basic medkit (gauze, disinfectant, needles, morphine, etc.) on the dead medic.  As well, you manage to find a frag grenade.

Crawling along the ground, you soon come across a strange pyramid-shaped black object (roughly 3" from base to point) with a button on the side.  As you push the button, the pyramid-shaped object begins to glow and energy courses through your body and you feel your leg twitching; when you look down, it's been healed.  The object stops glowing, but you feel a slight humming coming from it.

OoC: Yeah, you got a friggin amazing role...

OoC: sweet, but feel a humming? wouldn't I hear a humming and feel a vibrating (no pun intended).
What's it do anyway besides heal me? and hum?

I carry it along but continue to crawl to keep my head down and work my way through other dead bodies thinking to myself A Rifle, ammo for the rifle, a frag grenade, medical gear, a device that just healed my leg, I wonder whats next, heh atleast I will be prepared for whateveror wherever I verse to next.



OoC: what was the roll? and how UBER was it?

I meant sort of a vibration with a slight hum coming from it.  Meh, my bad.

It was basically the second best roll you could possibly get.

And we roll again to see...

You walk along, poking at the dead bodies and find nothing.  Behind you, you hear screams of pain and you turn around.  The spider seems to have defeated your previous allies and is now rushing towards you.

OoC: crap

I get up and run as fast as I can away from the spider but when it gets too close I will run toward the spider.  My aim is to run beneath it and to continue running at an angle away from it and get as far away as possible, maybe shoot some of my allies to convince it that I am on his side.

You run away, and the spider chases you for half a minute or so before giving up and turning around to rejoin its allies in the battle.

You're now alone where your group had previously gathered.

OoC: post 37 and I am not dead yet...pretty good, eh?

"Wow, that was close."

I look around to our previously assembled area and figure I will take a seat on the hill and watch the battle for a few minutes, maybe explore the world in the other direction of the battle taking place.



OoC:  Diagram:        (Battle)
                          |
                          V  <--- thats the direction I am going, away from the battle...How good was my roll that got it to leave me alone? or was it going to leave me alone just as long as I left it alone?

Your roll was decent, but since you took no action on it it left you alone.

After watching the battle for a few minutes, it becomes clear that the "good" guys have lost.  You're sitting there watching when you feel an intense being of energy behind you.  You turn around, and the lightning ball from earlier is hovering there.

"Why did you abandon me?"  He asks you.  His voice is lower than before, less majestic.

"I abandoned you due to learning that in a battle if one side is going to get pwned run and don't die with them.  Run to find a better course of action,
and then figure out what to do."  I  put my hands together and form a circular picture thing with my thmubs on top touching eachother and my other 4 fingers on each hand touching eachother.  I find a place and close my eyes and think of what do do.

The ball of lightning doesn't seem to care.  He grows bigger in size, his voice becoming more demonic.  "If you had been there, it would have made a difference!"  He grows calmer.  "I will give you one last chance, if you're willing."

"Two things, if I don't go along with your plan, what will happen to me? and two, whats your plan?"

"If you don't go along, you will be sent along, worldwalker.  As for my plan," he seems to turn (in his strange omnipotent way) and look down another plain.  "Stretch your eyes," he informs you.  You do so, and you spot what seems like a different coloured metal down on the plain.  "Go and destroy that building, and you shall be sent along with my blessing and perhaps something else.  I see you have already found one of my relics; you may keep it so long as you at least attempt this task."

"Ok, I will go along with this plan, but a few things first, what does it do? I know it healed me, but then it started to vibrate and hum, what does that mean? and will I be able to use it again to heal me?  Also, your blessings, what does that grant me? is like a paladin using blessings of wisdom or might to increase stuff, or what help does it grant me on this task.  Finally, what other "something" can you give me to help me with this? and are there any other relics out there that can aid me?

"It was recharging.  Once a day, you may use that device to heal all of your ails.  Your sicknesses, your wounds, everything.  Be forewarned, however, that the device is old and there's no telling if it may overheat at some point and cause greivous damage to your being, so I would conserve it only for the most dire moment.  As for my blessing, it means little for you now.  If you ever come across a certain situation, however, you may recieve help from those you least expect."

He pauses, and seems to shrink in size slightly as well.  "There are other relics in existence.  We will see if you complete this task.  Now go, time is of the essence."  He dissapears as he says this, and in his place you see a motorcycle.

OoC: Nice

I Hope on the motorcycle and speed off toward the building staying as far away as I can from the enemy and trying to avoid being seen.

You hop on the motorcycle and take off.  It's a little shaky at first, but then you get used to it.  You approach the buidling, and you quickly see that it is less of a building than a pathway into the ground itself.  There are no apparent guards in the area, as well, which seems odd.

I approach carefully, and also ready myslef to hop off and take out my ninja-to, shurikens, or battle rifle should the need arise and depending on my current situation.

What weapon do you arm?  Pick one.

You approach the building slowly and look down.  Inside, there is a dark grey steel that makes up the hallways.  There seems to be a powerful source of light coming from inside, and you can't see any guards.

OoC: I didn't say I armed anything I just prepared myself, but assuming I need to arm a weapon, this is what I will do...

I put my ninja-to around my side so that I can still use battojustsu if I need to.  I make sure all my shurikens are in the pouch on my body and hold the battle rifle out in front of me.  I amke sure the safety is off, and that I am ready.  I recall the image of the battle so I know generally who is ony my side and who isn't.  I prepare myself to enter.  I put the spare clips for the rifle in a pocket on the medical bag and I enter fully armed and ready to attack any foes in my way.

You enter the building carefully, battle rifle ahead of you.  As soon as you descend, you see a large green creature in bloody armour patrolling the hall.  You guess it's roughly seven feet tall.  As you look, you see it's carrying a large axe of which blood is still dripping off of from a recent kill.  There is a small black ponytail coming out of the back of its head, and his shoulder pads are adorned with spikes.

It has a strange look to its face, almost slightly pigish.  It doesn't see you, but you can see it sniffing at the air; it senses something's out of the ordinary.

I take aim at the pigish creature aiming at the vital areas and crouch down ready to fire if it notices me, but keeping still and ready looking for an opening to attack.

As it lumbers along, you see an opportunity to fire at the back of its neck.  You take it, and a three-round burst flies from your rifle.  Your first time firing a gun...

And you miss horribly.  The bullets whizz past its head, and the creature turns to you enraged.  It lets out a cry of bloodlust and begins charging at you.

OoC: NG stars.  True shurikens.  They are most definetely not kunai.

Nice....I <3 teh true shurikens


I pull out my shurikens and throw them at him (like 3 of em) and then I fire directly at the center of the beast leaving a minimal amount of miss zone.

To throw shurikens... two-handed rifle...

You drop the rifle to throw the shurikens.  They all hit the creature in his chest, and he yells out in pain as he pauses for a second (which gives you time to grab the rifle).  You fire the rifle at his chest twice, and all six bullets go into it.

He's still running at you, however, more pissed than ever... (10 feet away)

I jump to the side firing another burst or two off then as I land I drop the rifle (military grade wont break if it gets dropped so i am not worried, especially since it came from sarge) then throw 3 more shurikens and then roll away and run...If this plan fails I just run away a bit to put distance between me n him.

You fire another burst as you jump, this one misses him cleanly.  As you roll, you feel a sharp pain go up your side and hear the creature roar in triumph; it seems as though he cut your side with his axe.  You throw the shurikens, which bounce harmlessly off his armour.

You then being running away, your side impeding your progress.

I run away as fast as I can and then duck, fire a burst or two upwards at him then as he gets close take a risky move and thrust forward and an opening in his armor aiming at his kneecap or foot or something in that area.

Burst what?  You dropped the gun.

The next thing you know, a searing pain fills your back as the axe comes down yet again.

Then... darkness.
