Waking up in a Groggy haze, I try and Wipe the drug-like feeling from my eyes. Finally able to adjust to the dim lighting conditions, I scan the room for immediate danger.
Here in the badlands bad shit happens at any time, one has to be very careful.
As I hoped. This locator machine was quite like any other. They are mostly the same until you venture out to the new
location it has placed you in.

It is sweltering here! The lands I came from last were winterlands. Stripping off my Long Catfur coat, Happy not to have to wear such a heavy and Cumbersome Garment anymore, Loving the feeling of Hot, humid air clinging to my exposed
breasts and legs.
Time to See Where I Have Landed......

This is set on a post nucular earth. The date is 2099 and all is life or death. Hoping people can add everything from
friendship to Sex to cruel murderous acts!
The Setting or Thread starts in New Orleans, or what is left of New Orleans anyway!
 
So It Continues....

Moving slowly toward the door, left hand hovering between my sidearm and my Bowie, I noticed movement outside.

(...flesh...)

Had that been spoken or had I felt it in my mind? My mind registered the soft word - I must have felt it for my ears could not have registered the overpowering feeling of lust that came with that single soft word....

A hot wind blew through the cracks in the door, stirring dust at my feet, whispering the beginnings of sweat along the hard lines of my body. I instinctively wiped my off hand (right hand for me) across my filmed forehead. Pasted locks of my unnaturally red hair coming away, offering a slight penance from the heat I felt.

(...flesh...)

This time I was sure. The word had appeared in my head. The lust was not my own, though my own was racing up to match it. My heart quickened, the familiar tingle arced through my loins, my nipples swelled noticably....

Movement.

Someone or something was on the other side of the door. My attention returned to my weapons, still a hair's breadth
from my left hand. I could sense their cool metal presence. I heard and felt the Other move toward the door. Whatever the Other was, it was as cautious as I. The familiar old adage went through my mind as the Other tentatively reached for the latch. "Their just as afraid of us as we are of them."




Like what you see? E-mail me so we can move forward. I've always wanted to do a collaboration. And since we'll be getting so intimate, I intend to email you a pic. This Was Not My Posting! Sorry.. I had Ta do some cutting and pasting!LOL
 
Fight!

Moving closer to the door, I press my hand againset the cold metal. The door is vibrating at a furious rate! Thinking to
myself, If I could just press my crotch...Laughing under my breath I dismisss such a silly thought. At least the thoughts in my head are mine again.

Reaching down to my sweat soaked thigh, I slide my 12" Dagger out of it's home with a metal against Leather sound. Hoping not to use it so soon after showing up in a new land! Slowly and with caution I wrap my fingers arond the heavy doorknob,Turning it with ease, it clicks faintly and the door pops from the doorframe. Lifting my blade and moving into attack mode, I swing the door wide.....Nothing.

It seems that my feelings of a presences were unfounded. No One and Nothing but the control center. I had seen this
set up a hundred times before, Computers and machines of a long ago people, People that were now just dust or bones.
Sadness washing over me I continue through the huge room looking for a way out.Hoping to find an exit and perhaps
breathe some fresh air! After a hundred years of death, the smells one encounters are stomach churning. Not to
mention the undescribable horrors I have seen and done....

The familiar red signs glow at the end of each hallway leading out of this computer room. Doing a kind of eenie meenie minee mo, I choose the hallway to my right. My boots causing an echo of footfalls I move quickly down the corridor,Finally coming to what I hope is the exit door to this creepy tomb. Putting all my weight into my shoulder, I crash open the door........

Blinding Sunlight streams through the door and causes me to blink and cover my eyes.
Suddenly! A shadow cross my almost blinded vision, and I feel the cold steel of a blade, slice across my forearm, causing me to fall out the door and down into the dusty ground.............


Hoping for someone to start a new character or Continue this fight!..~I am looking to move the story all the way through

the bayou and city of New Orleans...~Evil Grin~...Towns in which to Engage in Hard Alcohol usage ~LOL~..Dangerous Sexcapades and Mind Numbing Violence!......
Be Well,
RNAB.
 
Side note just to see if your interested

*If you dont like my style just ignore this post*

Eden...it had to be somewhere, the man babbled about it in the inquisitor line assured us that it was paradise. no one believed him. But I saw something they all missed. He had orange rhines in his pouch. I dont blame anyone for not noticing, few people have ever even heard of an orange much less know what one is or smells like. This one couldnt have been more than a few months old. It still had a trace of scent to it. It took me back to days gone by..I was loved once..once the skys rained water instead of acid, once food was plentiful and water was sweet. once I had a mother and a father...and I didnt have to kill everyday...Im so Tired.
When the Inquisitors picked me up I was willing to give up and die... but the Orange..the scent..the hope...I was chained to the old man..when the dust people attacked us they were savage and hungry and they ate what they caught ..and what they had caught was us...The inquisitors were so confident with there patch work armor and there bolt throwers they were sure they were the kings of this food chain , I guess they forgot that in any food chain the little creatures that are willing to eat anything win in the end ... The old man was dead before I had a chance to think what I did next was a blur I remeber vaugely canabilistic sub human hacking at him , I grabbed at the old mans pouch and dived into the creature. I dont think he was used to people running at him he lost his balnce in the gore beneath him and I raced off into the sands heading back to the New City I had been so close too I had been dragging part of the old man for a mile before the red haze parted and I became sick...as my adrenaline left me so did my animilistic will to live... I dont know what became of the Inquisitor slavers or the rest of the prisoners...but I was free...I had to live with that.
 
Aww Shit!...I Didn't Wanna Get Into It!!!

Sputtering and coughing out all the dusty dirt I inhaled, I Quickly leap to my feet!
Used to the bright light now, my instincts tell me to Defend myself. Turning my eyes toward my attacker, seeing that I am gonna have a serious fight on my hands.

Another Chick! Her eyes red as burning embers, her blond hair knotted and filthy, streaming down past her waist. And muscles! Man what a Body! Summing her up, Noticing that she is much shorter than me but with bulging mucles in her long legs. Strong sinewy arms connected to the thickest Neck I ever saw! Her midrift was filled with rippeling abs, a six pack if I ever saw one. The outfit she wore was made up of scraps of red fabric linked with chainmail. It did not cover very much at all! Which was perfect for such a hot land...

"Listen Sweetie..Don't ya think we can work this out, without killing each other?" I say, As my crimson blood spurts out of the gash in my arm.
Desperate and not wanting to murder this stupid girl, I pull my blade and gun at the same time hoping this would deter her in some way.....


Needing someone to fill in this charecter!....Come On, Play With Me!
Be Well,
RNAB.
 
simon

simon , i got the name from a object I found. I dont remember my real name. I dont remeber much at all. I know that I can read . but in the hear and now thats about as usefull as a bag of sand in the desert. I finnaly detached the arm from the other side of the chain. It made it easier to travel. they took my staff and my dagger. I was pretty sorry looking but the cuts were scaring over so I guess I didnt get infected.I hefted the heavy chain...I figured it would make a decent weapon in a pinch. I debated taking another step... off in the distance i heard a roar, a feral animalistic roar that could only come from something that was once called human. I wasnt sure I wanted to go on but I was pretty sure I didnt want to be caught by whatever made that sound..I kept heading in the direction of the New town I had heard of...
 
'new' Orleans

Nahllins...

I dont know how long I have been walking. I am out of water and I wont last another day without some. A sandstorm is coming in and I figure now is as good a time as any to just lay down and die. I hit the ground hard and hear a clang.
I look at what Im lying on and it says something about New Orleans. Theres that name again. it sounds like a fun place, it may not be eden but its probably better than dieng from dehydration. somewhere within me I find the will to get up.. I see the city in the distance...Im sure I can make it by night fall ...i dont have much to worry about..if i dont..im dead.
 
And The Wails Save The Day!!!

The sun glinting off my blade and the handle of my gun getting hot, I slowly circle the girl. My attempts at conversation and dominance not taken at all seriously, She stalks me as well. Looks like I'm in fer a fight!
Suddenly! My blood turned icy in my veins. A wild, subhuman roar echoed through the land. Unable to think about that now, I turn all my concentration on the girl. Looking right at her, I notice a look of alarm, She must be freaked about the beast too!

Again, I try to talk to her. " You hear that too? What is it?" I say quickly.
"That thing sounds big & mean, and VERY hungery!"
She looks like perhaps My words are finally hitting home.

Carefully stepping away from the stalk zone, I place my weapons on the ground in front of me, still close but down.

"We need to get away from here! Peace? Mutual surrender? Please! I don't want to kill you!" Pleading my case.

The words register! She steps back and also puts her weapon away, "Yes, we should get back to my camp! The creature that made that sound IS big, mean & REALLY hungrey!" She say's, the last few words sounded rather nervous but quite gigglie and singsong at the same time. The voice was very gravvely and deep but ultra sexy too.

"Let's get going for it gets dark!" I say.
Turning and starting off, I follow her. Did I relay to you that it is reallllly hot here! Sweat dripping down my face from the quick pace she kept up, we walk in silence. Wodering where we are going and WHO this girl is, I try a small bit of conversation.

"Might I ask where your camp is?"..I ask, hoping she tells me it's close by!

She answers in her deep voice, "Old Orleans" she says with no feeling and no extras.
Not getting much of an answer, I try another small question. Perhaps she will open up a little.

"You know, I don't even know your name! Mine is Sharlin. What's yours?"

She stops and turns to look at me, with a sad smile,
" I have no name....But It is grand to meet you, Shar-lin"
with that she Turns and continues to lead the way to Old Orleans............
 
Ahlins

*SIMON*
It is getting dark and the temperature is starting to drop. It boils us in the day and freezes at night. Most of my gear was lost to the inquisitors... I stagger along as my musceles cramp on me and my stomach spasms...I need food and more imporatantly I need water...I start to fade out my legs are moving of of thier own accord now, it is my will and somewhere deep inside my mind has balled up into a corner and is no longer willing to deal with it.I stagger on like that for a while until I reach some ruins...I stumble over something. I try to get up...but my legs arent responding. I try to move but my body is rejecting me as its master... its so cold I involuntarily curl up into a ball... everything goes black.
 
Simon

Walking for what seemed like an eternity, the girl had picked up her pace and was quite far ahead. Occasionally she stopped and looked back to see if I was still with her. I would wave and give the thumbs up; nodding, she would turn and keep on moving.
Scanning the horizon for possible signs of life or a town. Seeing nothing but more swamp to the east and highway to the west, I continued to follow the girl north. The soil was dead. Nothing could ever grow here, if anything had ever grown.
Suddenly the girl broke into a run, turning back for a moment to motion for my help. Anxious to know what was happenning. Was it her camp? I could see nothing of the sort. I quickstepped and dashed over to see what the exitment was all about.
As I got closer, I surveyed the situation. The girl was digging through her bag as she knelt beside a man, who was in obvious distress.
He was sprawled on the ground, as though he may be dead. Blood, caked dirt and sweat covered his long, lean body belieing his true charm. His lips were wrinkled and white, there were blisters all over his exposed body and he looked generally beaten and broken with a heavy, clunky chain and object lieing next to him in the dust.
The girl pulled a big flask of water from her bag and pushed it between his dehydrated lips, as I looked on.
 
saved?

suddenly I had water...I almost choked on it since I drank to fast and my stomach muscles had been empty and tight for to long...I ordered my body to stand up and survey the situation..the best it could do was lift my head slightly ..I looked up to see an angelic light..great I thought to myself Im dead...but as my eyes adjusted I realized I was just seeing spots and a woman before me off in the distance another woman was approaching... I hope they take me for a slave because if I went through all this just to get iced here then god has a sense of humor. I try to smile and get up but dehydration/exposure and lack of food is to severe... I mumble something and everything goaes black.
 
Honey....

OOC: RNAB, I'm back. I'll take the female.

IC: Of all the times for the ghost to leave me, damnit! So many things these people just wouldn't understand without the ability to speak to them. The male seems as if he is about to speak. The talkative female seems at a loss. And now I have no way of communicating with them. The ghosts departed shortly after the Rebanth called the Hunting to its mate.

Damn my affliction. Mute from birth and mutated into some aberration of nature by the radiation levels, here I was. Able to see the ghosts, able to speak with their help. Hopeless without them, those fickle, selfish non-corporeal phantasms that wandered here. I would have to hope the other female could talk to him.

He was beautiful under all his filth. The arm lying beside him gave me pause, but on closer inspection, I could tell it had been another prisoner. I could see the mark left by the shackle. The bloody shackle that still lay beside it, still attached to this striking young man.

I motioned for the other woman to attend him, angry with myself for hesitating. I didn't own him. Yet.
 
fever dream

OOC***** I detached the arm a while back..it was about 4 posts ago . So all I have is a Chain.*******
IC*
I am being carried by someone who loves me... she teaches me to read.. and she teaches about arithmetic, she says the stars are important and they can still be seen.....
I am running ....it is after the fire and I cant find anyone, people are screaming....I am following someone, I think he used to be my father , but after my mother died he began to let go as well... he shows me how to forage and how to fight...but he wastes away before my eyes... I am being branded into the Church of Inquisitors, I hide the fact that I can read...I am stripped and branded like property.
I am....wandering after a fight? the fight is over we won..we are seperated from the main group, and most of us cant walk , slolwy i watch the others die, for some reason I didnt I crawl on....I live...I move on wandering..following a dream....I am here...where am i?
 
Darkness Falls

The sky was turning a vivid color of purple with blood red clouds hazing everything out. The night was coming on fast, and we were still far from anyplace that looked like a town or camp. Finding shelter and food a nessesity.

Mr handsome had passed out again, and I certainly was not gonna carry him all the way to Orleans!

((Help Me With This Guy))

The Voice had been so strange in my head, it took me a minute to remember. This time it had no malice, no anger. This time, I knew who was invading my mind. That's how the girl communicates!

She had picked up his legs and was motioning for me to grab the rest of him.

Grabbing him under the arms, I try and convey my thoughts to her, wondering if she will hear me...

**We Need Shelter**
** Where can We Find a Place to make Camp?**

Dropping his legs, her hard face took on a brighter look...


((You can hear me?))
 
The Goddess' Favor!

"Thank the Mother," I scream in my head, almost knocking the woman to her knees, her hands clapping to her ears.

As a result, our gorgeous prize fell hard to the ground, letting out a disappointed moan.

I took a step back, half fear, half disbelief flooding my head.

**You know my secret.**
**Can I trust you?**

The wind was picking up and the sky lowering fast. Another sand storm sang its dirge in the distance, guaranteeing us that we had run out of time.

Without another thought, I ran quickly back to the half-buried ring of stones we had just passed. No more time for leading her in circles and hoping for rescue. She had to know about us now. I couldn't let her die out here. No more than could I let my prize.

Stamping hard on the cracked earth in the middle of the fire pit, I was sure she heard the clang of metal on metal. The door popped up, throwing even more sand into the abrasive air.

I ran quickly back to her. No hesitation now, had to get out of the night. We lowered the sleeping man into waiting hands, then I jumped down.

I had the man. The decision to join us would be hers.
 
Testing?

OOC* Sorry IRL has gotten in my way but Im back now

IC**

I am floating ...I remeber a machine that flies and the way the world looked once...I remeber my first kiss...my first kill and the first time I tasted true fear... I am floating..no...I am being carried.....who am I?

I slowly force my eyes to open...My brain is floationg in my fever soaked head...but I see people..Im too tired to fight but I can not die..I have to find eden...
 
Underground!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The little bitch had bamboozled me! She was gonna walk me around in circles, until the unbelivable events occured.
I watched her run back to the stones we had clambered over about a hundred meters back, leaning over and gripping a sandscraped metal door that was hinged it seemed to the ground. Hefting to open, it seemed a million hands were there to greet her and our Handsome find.

Before I was even able to think, The guy was taken into the depths of the underground and she jumped down quickly behind him. I walked to the edge of the unknown underworld, and dropped to my knees trying to get a better look into the dark hole. Peering down into the hole, I was grabbed by strong hands and dragged in.
Almost thrown to the wet cold ground, I threw my hands to my ears, holding my head and squeezing my eyes shut from the noise of a thousand voices. It was like being in a packed tavern, loud talking, quiet whispering, regular conversation, laughing and general noise pollution; except it was all ringing through my head and not at all through the regular way of communication I was used to.

My Brain felt like it was going to explode, but just as soon as the onslaught started it ended with almost complete silence. When I looked up all the eyes that were connected to the hands were staring at me.

Orleans...

The devil lives at the Holiday Inn.

The bombs killed every living thing they came across, leaving houses and other structures standing in perfect order. The hotel, even after so many poisoned years, was still as inviting looking as any Holiday Inn.
The cheery sign called to one,
~ Come In! Stay And Enjoy Yourself ~.
If one only knew the horrors that had befallen this once grand city, and this once happy hotel, they would pray to turn back time and live out their lives never having known the dark, sadistic tragedies that have and will occur.

The Horde, as most called it, were doing the regular rounds through the hotel and city. Marching past the door of Lord Lasitres however, all the men stepped lightly and lots even held their breath. No one wished to bring his fury upon themselves.
He often locked himself in for weeks on end, Drinking bourbon, snorting cocaine and pushing filthy needles filled with close to pure heroin into his unaturally oversized body.
The gaurds that got posted to his door were forever haunted by the sounds of his evil ways, These men got first hand sight of what went on in the Lord's room.
Every night, sometimes several times in one, Lord Lasitres's second in command ( A disgusting, short, malicious little man!), would bring young women and more drugs to him. The women never came out alive. Screaming only lasted for a small time, then silence, until he got fucked up again. His drug blurred laughter could turn the blood cold in your veins. Then the door would open, his enormity crowding the doorframe, and toss a lifeless and brutally beaten body to the floor.
Whispers overheard, told of his member being alive and in need of constant feeding.

All Hail The Lord Lasitres Of Orleans!
 
My name is Wolf, and I am a seeker.

I am a male. 6"6' 325 rock solid muscular pounds, waist length sun bleached blonde hair, every inch of my skin not covered by my black leather pants, and denim vest is a deep dark tan. When I walk, my well worn biker boots make a slap of leather. I carry a simple two handed broadsword, and a long, straight dagger. I am more than I appear. I am not of this time. I seek the other that is out of time. Before, I can return to my own time, I must see her. I must tell her what I know. My trip through time has dropped me into old New York City. My Seeker sense tells me to head SSW. But first, I need food, and water.
 
Welcome to The Badlands Wolf!

I love the sound of yer character!
I cannot wait to see him integrated and find out what he knows!

The Story!

Mary
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
The horrid little man kicked the door wide and pushed me into the middle of the room then down onto my knees.

"Wait till my Lord sees you, girl" He said, his breath hot and stinking in my face,his gnarled, filthy hand crushing my jaw

I tried to just relax and close my eyes, but that was a painful mistake. I felt the whole bottom of his boot crush into my chest, knocking me back, sprawled on the floor on my back. My dress high above my waist, my whole lower region now exposed, The sour smelling bastard started running his fingers up the insides of my thighs making me want to throw up!

"Get you sick fucking hands off me you murdering son of a whore!" I said. Again a painful mistake.

"If You wasn't such a fine little bitch, I'd slice you up and let my master feed you to the dead!"
Then the closed fist crashed between my ribcage and into my soft belly flesh. My body said it could take more, but my brain said "You have had enough, just let me pull you to the darkness and oblivion"
I complied.
 
Preparing for my journey.

I find a shop. From the battered sign, it used to be a sporting goods store. I find boxes of freeze dried foods, canteens, raingear, a backpack, sleeping bags, and a tent. I pack the pack with the raingear, food, and roll the sleeping bags and attach them and the tent to the top. Next I look for somewhere to get water.

I find water running from a pipe. It smells ok. I take a small sip, my seeker senses working overtime to ascertain if the water is pure enough to drink. The seeker senses tell me it is. I drink my fill then fill all 12 of the canteens. After filling them, I tie them to the backpack frame. If nothing else, I can trade the water for food later. My body needs very little food or water, as I am not 100% human. What I have gathered should last me for a month or so. I need to find her. She holds the key to my ultimate destiny.


So my journey to find The One begins...
 
Journey continues...

It has been 20 days, since I left Ney York City, I am nearing Savanah, Gerogia, well...What's left of Savanah. I am crossing what used to be an U.S. Army base. So I will take a few days to look for weapons. I am not exactly sure how I know the geography of this area, having never been here before, but I know it like I know my own skin. I see some low buildings in the distance. They look relatively intact, so I will investigate them for weapons. If nothing else, they will make excellent trade goods.

I get dizzy. I drop to my knees, unable to maintain my balance. A flash of memory...As quickly as it began...It is gone. But, I remember it is though it were yesterday. What looked like a lab, me, on a low slung table, and what looked like a group of doctors...I wonder what this means...I rise a little unsteadily to my feet and head once again to the low building in the distance...Hoping there is something there, but not knowing quite what 'it' might be.
 
Seeking answers here...

I don't know why, but I feel drawn to one of the buildings that set low in the west. I walk to it, and find a very large, very solid, steel door. What makes me curious, is the electronic lock that still appears to be in good working order. I was told that the EMP of the nuclear weapons used, would render all electrical systems inoperative. Well, like Lewis Carroll said...'Curiouser and curiouser.'

Not really knowing why, I hold my right hand over the keypad the operates the door. I feel a slight, almost inperceptable tingle in the palm of my right hand. Then...A dull metallic click, and the door swung open as if it had just been oiled.

The steps led down into a well lit corridor. I followed them. Something told me that there was a piece of my puzzle down here.

Almost as soon as I began my descent, I could smell it. The cold, chilling smell that had haunted me for so long...It was as if...Nah...Couldn't be...This is not my time...Nor my place...But it seems so familiar...At the far end of the corridor...A sign. "U.S. Army Robotic Weapons Lab" Under the sign, another operational electronic lock. I passed through this door as easily as I had the outer one.

Another brief flash of memory...And I knew why I had been drawn to this building...It was where I was born...Then the memories come crashing all around me like a flash flood...My internal clock told me it was 9 hours, 12 minutes, and 34 seconds from the time I fell unconscious. I know now what I am. I am a first generation cyborg. Why I was sent back here...I do not exactly know...but I do know...I must find her...She is THE ONE...The key to the future...
 
Another Kill

One of the mob came at me in a flash of steel and growling.
I kinda rolled outta the way and pulled my bruised body up from the floor.I felt broken and abused, but I readied myself for yet another fight.

~Stop It! Relax!~
I try and talk to him in his strange form of communication.

Useless. He came at me again, this time with a little more finess. His experience was not a match for mine, I stepped to the side and watched his bulking body fall past and to it's knees. Spinning and sliding my blade from it's home, knowing that this was gonna get crazy at any moment.

The silence in my head was disconcerting. I Was sure I was gonna get an onrush of the voices in my head, but nothing; Silence except for the grunting oaf that was attempting to end my life.Reasons unknown.

He Growled angrily and rushed towards me, his double bladed bowie knife pointed right at me. This time there was no getting out of the way, his body crushed into me and knocked us both to the floor in a death roll.
I was now on my back with his giant body straddling mine, my hands holding his knife arm, with his blade tip just inches from my face.
Just in time it seemed, the girl came and with no effort she hauled him offa me by the scruff of his neck and tossed him aside.

I climbed to my knees, ready to thank the girl, when he came at us. This time I was totally at attention, but the girl was not. Looking up from the floor at him, the bowie in both hands coming down like the blade of the heavens. His whole belly exposed and knowing that this time was gonna be him or I.
My Blade went so deep. I twisted it and watched his face contort. He was dead.
