Working Together, Monday, Period 3

[psychoticbiotic.livejournal.com]

Class was held in the Danger Shop today, which was programmed to look like a large warehouse full of crates and boxes. After suitable time to let the students gather, the lights flickered off and the instructor's voice came over the loudspeaker. Jack herself was nowhere to be seen.

"When the lights come on, a bunch of husks are gonna show up," she intoned. "They're mean, they ain't cute, and they fall apart like wet tissue paper with a good headshot. Guns and ammo will be by the door where you came in or use whatever other powers you have. I'm watching. And I have popcorn."

"Oh, and before you wet yourselves, this is all one big sim, so don't freak that you're gonna get killed for real."

And then the lights came back on, revealing the promised husks. They groaned a bit before charging straight at the students.

Welcome to Fandom High, boys and girls. Don't worry, the teacher will explain her point later.

Fight Husks [9/02]

Kill the zombies. (Or practice passive resistance, should such be your preference. Or just WTF at the whole thing.)

To say Theo hadn't expected this would be a massive, massive understatement. He'd come to class thinking it'd be a simple introduction day but nope, it was time to fight.

Well, for Theo, it was time to run away and hope he didn't die. He managed to avoid the husks for the most part but when one actually cornered him, he didn't really know what to do besides sweat.

Dev, though, he knew what to do. Before Theo could stop him, it felt like Theo was stronger and angrier than he tended to be. Like he was being backed up by one huge alien and with Dev nearly manifesting, Theo snarled and barreled over the husk so he could get away again.

Cade raced for the guns, found himself a spot with a good view and good coverage (because what was the point of doing this if you could get snuck up on from behind?) and began taking out the husks like he'd done this for a living before.

Which...yeah, he had.

Gert had never handled a gun before, which was probably why she missed her first husk by a truly impressive distance.

Shots two through six were a learning experience, but attempt seven resulted in a husk's arm hitting the floor with a rather unpleasant noise, so... there was that.

Surreal blinked for a moment as the lights came on, and then laughed, delighted. This was exactly what she needed after her last class.

She raised her arms, calling in her stiletto and a wickedly curved hunting knife as she dropped the sight-shield around her Green, the Jewel nestled between her breasts and glowing as she let the power flow into her.

It was time to play, and Surreal was a blur of motion as she kissed the Husks with her blades and started to dance.

Headshots, huh?

Mercy grabbed two guns and as much ammo as she could carry and found herself a little cover to shoot from. From there she could just pick them off as they came in.
