Alexander took the next blow well, as his two associates admitted to not knowing anyone useful to their cause. He shook his head and chuckled. "Then we go and find someone who'll join up with us who does." He smiled over at Jasper. "You know, I haven't heard all of the announcements.....

Alexander couldn't help but smile, though he knew the boy didn't know what to make of him. He supposed that he wouldn't know either. He was hit with a sudden mental image of himself. After six days on the island he supposed he looked skinnier. Looking down, he was suddenly struck by how much weight ...

[So sorry for my lateness, busy week. And now, with GMing improved] There was a moment. A scant half second. His eyes met her's and the woods fell silent. There was nothing, not a sound. He looked up at the girl. She looked down at him. Their eyes met for that singular moment. Neither found a trace ...

He'd been just trying to draw a sight on Janet again when he'd seen the slapshot swinging wildly towards his hand. He whipped it up and out of range, scrabbling backwards further. He was painfully aware of the other kid with the gun. He looked at Janet. Oh, you are clever, he thought to himself sudd...

((Alexander Campbell continued from Revenge is Best Served Cold )) Alex listened to the announcement in a grim silence. He hadn't more than three words since they'd left his erstwhile ally's. Hayley had killed two more. His defensiveness of her was starting to sound more and more mistaken by the min...

The bullet erupted from the gun and carved a tunnel through the air towards David's head. It missed him, mostly. His ear wasn't quite as lucky. It tore through it with an ungodly force, ripping the majority of it from his head. He let out a sound that was somewhere between a scream and a howl. "...

"Alright Thea, I'll bite. We're out here because you're looking for Hayley Kelly. You're looking for her because she killed someone that you care about. So if you're not going to kill her, what are we doing here?" He sighed. "I purposely get wounded..." he said, rubbing his hand ...

He gritted his teeth as the other boy went for the gun, nearly firing. It was different up close, harder to pull the trigger. They looked just like normal people now. He mentally reappleied his names for them. The pervert and the slut. There, that made it easier. But now the pervert had his gun and ...

Jasper had had quite the little adventure. As he often did, Alex had to wonder if his friend was all there. He wondered on what level the events of the island were affecting him. He almost didn't seem to care. "You're unbelievable you know that. UN-BELIVEABLE." Alex shut his eyes for a sec...

((David Matson continued from Burn the Louvre )) David crept through the bushes as silent as he could be. He had to go slow. The asthma attack at the houses couldn't have happened at a worse time. Running away from shooting at someone, hell of a time for your lungs to cripple you. It was fortunate t...

Alexander frowned. He could hear the bitterness in her voice. Well, this is going to go well. In a split second he mentally flashed through the words he'd been rehearsing. "Look, I understand why you want to hurt Hayley. I know what you're feeling. That urge for revenge. I know what it feels li...

He heard the exploding collar and stopped midstep, looking behind him. Random chance. And not his name. God was clearly smiling on him. But this girl, this Liz Polanski. Typical. Not content to just be a murderer, she was getting those around her arbitrarily killed as well. He felt a touch of cognit...

(Alexander Campbell continues from Cleanliness and Loneliness ) Step followed agonised step as Alex tried to walk unsupported. He'd been helped for most of the day, but he felt like he was getting better. He at least felt well enough that he had no desire to be burden to the people who saved his lif...

David fled through the back gardens of the house, his feet digging into the grass and throwing it out behind him. Footstep followed footstep as his breathing quickly grew rapid. Suddenly every breath was as though he was breathing through lungs of crushed glass. Stupid, stupid. He should have known ...

Things were starting to happen around him, but he was too far gone to care. His head was swimming, blood loss making it hard to keep his focus on anything for a single period of time. He caught snippets of conversation, bickering and arguing that eventually seemed to calm down slightly. Idly his min...
