Alex swiftly darted into the forest, noting that the girl with the gun was still nowhere to be seen. He remembered what his father had taught him. The principles of the hunt were to identify, stalk and attack. He imagined himself as a lioness (male lions being lazy). How would he approach? From behi...

Isaiah stared into the quiet around him and saw nothing. He had a bad feeling about this place.

He turned on his heels and left slowly away from the tower, pulling out his map to check his next destination.

((Isaiah Garvey continued [post adoption] in Reconstitution))

(GM Approved) Alex turned on his heels, now regressing into a barbaric animal. He needed her club for his defence, or something else. A distraction could work in his advantage, but... Alex then noticed the gun and saw it pointed in his general direction. The bitch was here. His plan could work if he...

Rena backed straight into him and Alex's hesitation had destroyed his attempt at restraining her. She had turned to face him, and looked very calm. The club hovered by her side, without a hint of aggression. Rena was good at hiding her fear. Very good, in fact. She fired a quick glance past him. 'Wa...

Isaiah grabbed the ladder and launched himself up a few rungs before dropping over the other side behind a cage of twisted steel. He had no heard any gunshots, perhaps the situation had diffused. Or he was being followed. It was most unlikely as the men outside were still shouting. Isaiah smiled wit...

((Understood, removing GM.)) Alex shuffled out of cover in silence and peeked through the trees. The girl with the gun was leaving... It had been a completely wasted effort. However, that club could come in handy. I can't expose myself now, she'll shoot. He turned to Rena, who was still facing away ...

'Where are you?' Alex slow breathing quickened slightly as the "Rena" girl entered carrying a huge club. Stupid name... where is the other bitch? Her effective range is at least a tenth of normal by her inexperience. Unless he had found a pistol shooting champion. The girl plodded around a...

Isaiah saw the gun and knew he wouldn't stand a chance. So much for a hiding place. The potential victims of his gunfire were unknown to him. The tower was close-by and he had a clear run to the ladder. If he could get up there and into the bowels of the collapsed tower, he could hide. There were pl...

Alex's eyes snapped open and ravaged his mind for a comprehensible thought. His mind screamed the video, his capture, his fate. Damn, D...that dick is going to pay for this. He had to find out what the asshole had assigned him. With small movements, Alex grabbed his pack and slid his hand through th...

(B111 Begins) The coarse grass against Isaiah's face woke him up. He stirred slowly, and a cold breeze brushed along his face. It subsided a few seconds later and Isaiah rolled onto his back, flinging his arms in an almighty stretch. Then it clicked. Where the heck am I? He pushed himself off the gr...

Cowards Alex glanced at his hand and rubbed his left eyebrow. Kayla had put in quite a sum. Perhaps this was her game or perhaps she was a fool. Would he risk 40% of his pot to raise her to $2. He gulped another small quantity of cider and made his decision. He pushed $1 worth of chips into the pil...

Dealing always had it's charm and advantage giving Alex prime position to assess the hands of the other players. He expected their curiosity influenced their bets more than the associated probabilities. Alex's maths (or math, as painful as it was to mention) was good enough for him to work out basic...

((Starting new order, I'll PM you your cards soon)) 'You don't know, Alex. He might be a 70-year-old who moisturizes a lot,' Isabel replied. Alex smiled, impressed with her wit. He was also pleasantly surprised. To save his pride, Alex continued with a normal shuffle to get the cards thoroughly mixe...

Finally, the conversation was flowing properly. He locked eyes with Charlotte after her tease and gave her a subtle wink. The cards beneath his hand were cleanly pushed back into a single deck. Anyone who notice the single manoeuvre would think he had redeemed himself. 'Are we playing girls vs. guys...

((Understood Che!)) Alex hadn't expected a double compliment from Isabel, of all people. They had be friends since his move to St Paul, but he thought he knew her well enough for her not to feel obliged to compliment him. 'I must admit, you look very sophisticated tonight. You should tell my uncle y...
