Quest One: Not this place again

[littlemiss101]

 [Mae walks up in a bed. That alone is enough to set off alarm bells. She remembers very distinctly going to sleep last night, leaning against a half destroyed wall with a dog next to her. And considering how...well non destroyed the room was looking.... 

She very quickly snuck out of bed and started to look around the house. Grabbing a baseball bat from the small boy's room as she went. Never hurt to have a weapon when you've been kidnapped.  She looks outside.



......well this wasn't good. She quickly goes back inside and get's dressed, interogates some drones and locates the phone.]

Dr. Braun, if you're there. We need to talk because I'm pretty sure being back in this place is impossible considering everyone died last time. 

[And with that she hangs up. She's sure if he is behind this...and who else would be? It's just like last time...though she admits it's ...different and slightly more impossible...that if he was behind it, he'd be calling back to gloat at any moment. Until then.  
 

Mayfield there is a woman wandering around carrying a baseball bat like a weapon. You can find her.

A. On her lawn examining the grass, or her arm. They...feel more real then the simulation. But there's also colour here, so maybe it's just a tech upgrade. 

 

B. Going through your mailbox or garbage can. Hey, who knows what valuables you might have thrown away....like this bottle cap, score!

 

C. Interrogating young drone girls at the playground. Seriously, which one of you is in charge here?

 

D. Looking through windows of peoples houses to see if they're abandoned. Aka: where the hell is the failsafe to this place]

Great.

One more thing to look forward to.

[ooeeooahah]

[ Ilsa nods, sadly. ]

[ Just drinking her coffee, waiting for the next question. ]

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

So.

How dangerous would you say this place is. On a day to day basis. Should I find a weapon.

[Glances at bat.]

...another weapon? Would they even sell guns here?

[ooeeooahah]

Day to day? Not bad. Boring, even. But there are times when you might want a gun. Problem is the drone clerks will not sell them to anyone but an adult male. However, if you go here, [ pointing to the rec center on the map, ] some of the guys have set up a practice range. Talk to the ones that aren't drones, and you can probably arrange a purchase, if Carter won't buy one for you.

On the other hand, knives don't jam. [ Ilsa taps the map again at 339 Brady Lane. ] There's a forge here, and a young man that knows his business. Just listen to the phones for when Hiccup says he's working.

[She nods.]

Knives are good, but if I have to use a melee weapon I prefer a bat. You don't have to get as close then.

[ooeeooahah]

[ Ilsa nods again. ]

He also does swords, but I haven't been trained for those.

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

Yeah, those are hard to use.

[ooeeooahah]

He did make a really sweet knife for me, though. Good balance and fits my hand well.

I'm hoping he puts out a call for work later this week, I'd like to have a few more.

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

I'll have to listen for him then.

[She gets up after drinking the last of the water.]

Well I'd better go and explore more of the town. Thanks for the water and the information.

[ooeeooahah]

Not a problem, just share the information forward.

Stop by if you need anything else, no need to scrounge the garbage.

[littlemiss101.livejournal.com]

I will.

[Or she'll come here for free handouts and continue to look through garbage. Hey, scavenging is a habit now.]
