Day One...

=====Jack the Lumber Jack=====

You woke up this morning...the power was out. Weird. You look at your watch and see that it's 5:00 am. Normally this woukd have worried you but they told you to come in at 7:00 am today instead of your normal 5:00 am start time. You laugh to yourself because your body knows you should be working. You get dressed and grab your work gear and stop at Pinky's Place: One Stop Shop & Gas N' Gulp Diner, a spot you frequent after work normally but since it was only 5:45 am...you had some time to kill. The Diner was relatively empty and you got your food quickly. You finish eating and take a sip of your water when you hear a scream outside. This scream cuts right through the refular noises of this truck stop. You look to your left and see an overweight truck driver come out from behind his truck, his hand is on his neck and it's bleeding profusely. Suddenly he is tackled from behind and another man pounds on his head from behind. **RULE #1: CARDIO**

=====Jim "Max" Vance=====

Jim woke up at 5:30 to get ready for the day, grabbing a light breakfast at home eventhough he could've simply walked across the street to Pinky's Place: One Stop Shop & Gas N' Gulp Diner but you'd spent too much time there yesterday looking through all the latest gun magazines. Maybe Pinky wouldn't be so annoyed if you bought one once in a while but you weren't exactly rolling in money...or you would be living in a stock piled cabin with plenty of ammo and a bomb shelter like you had originally planned. You grab a quick shower, before sitting at your trusty computer and check the time: 6:00 am - Perfect. Time to begin your daily ritual of checking the online editions of the papers when you hear a blood curdling scream...you run to the window, look outside and see an overweight truck driver, his hand is on his neck. Suddenly he is tackled from behind and another man pounds on his head from behind. **RULE #1: CARDIO**

=====Ronald Sidenblad=====

The last person you had hitched a ride with dropped you of here at Pinky's Place: One Stop Shop & Gas N' Gulp Diner last night. You had just sat there sleeping between cups of coffee all night. You're pretty sure the waitress has already called the cops to "ask you to leave" because you are loitering...but you did purchase the cup of coffee...you see a man who seems to be a woodsman and some other truckers. You take a sip of your coffee when you hear a scream outside. This scream cuts right through the refular noises of this truck stop. You look to your right and see an overweight truck driver come out from behind his truck, his hand is on his neck and it's bleeding profusely. Suddenly he is tackled from behind and another man pounds on his head from behind. **RULE #1: CARDIO**

The scene jumps. It's night in Fallujah. Hot, dry. Dust seems to hang in the air as if weightless. Then, the darkness is exploded by flashes and pops and fire and....

"Holy crap!" Ronald screams, instinctively grabbing the steak knife off the place setting. He's back in the truck stop, watching a man get curb stomped outside in the parking lot.

=====Jeff Fisher=====

You get up in the morning and get ready to go to work. The normal stuff goes on, you shower, you shave have a bagel and fill up your travel coffee mug. You get into your patrol car and hit the garage door button. "I can't beleive I get paid to do this..." you tell yourself as you look in the rearview mirror. You start driving the hour long trek to get into Sacramento. You chose to live out here because you didn't beleive in playing where you worked. About halfway there you receive a call from dispatch asking you to stop by Pinky's Place to check on a loiterer. It's just a mile ahead and you start to wonder if you should turn your lights on or just continue as is...

"152 clear. Enroute." Jeff never minded taking a call before they all gathered for squad, just gave him an early morning story the others didn't know about. "I hope it turns out to be a 'fun' day." Without much of a thought, he drives straight to Pinky's, faster than he should but not fast enough to warrant driving through hot.

**when he gets there**

"152 to comm center."
"152 go ahead."
"I'm 10-97. Who's the RP?"

Either dispatch didn't answer or he just didn't care enough to listen. Before getting out of the car, he tries to pick out the subject of the call.

=====Jeff Fisher=====

As you here the dispatcher tell you the reporting party is a waitress inside of Pinky's and the loiterer is a man who's been there all night... You stop listening when you see a man on top of another mans back, pounding in the back of his skull with his fists. There is blood everywhere and the second man brings his hands up and starts licking off the blood.

=====Ronald Sidenblad=====
=====Jim "Max" Vance=====
=====Jack the Lumberjack=====

You all see the Police car pull up and the Police Officer steps out. You all see that the second man brings his hands up and starts licking off the blood. Jack you see one of the other occupants if the restuarant grab a steak knife off the counter in a hurried motion (Ronald).

Jim looks on the scene in disbelief, he was unsure what was happening below, there had been one too many 'false alarms' that he'd been involved in and the police had warned him next time they'd press charges and that would keep him from his guns. Jim looked around at the spartan apartment that he stayed in, taking a mental note of his weapons, pack, and bike. Deciding it's better safe then dead, Jim goes and checks his 'bug out bag' or BOB as he called it. He takes his katana from the wall and straps it too his back as well as the sidearm, a well made Glock17, to his hip. Jim then runs back to the window to keep an eye on the happenings below, while strapping on his sturdy hiking boots, just in case.

OnlytheStrong · Feb 6, 2010

Jeff pulls his Glock 17 and takes carefull aim at the man. "This is Sgt. Fisher of the Sacramento police department, I'm only going to tell you one time to stop what your doing, lay face down on the ground and put your hands behind your head." He moves carefully around the man, keeping a safe distance. He wanted to see this man's face before he put a bullet through it.

If the man does not stop....

1d20+3=6, 2d6=9 woot for a freakin miss...

=====Jeff Fisher=====

You move around the man and you he looks up at you and his eyes aren't right...they're dark with a slight yellow hue to them. He rips part of the mans brain out as he snarls at you. You are slightly off put by this as you fire, you miss...(uh...warning shot I guess).

[sblock=OOC]Roll Initiative[/sblock]

=====Jim "Max" Vance=====

You get your things collected and get bck to the window in time to see the Officer fire a shot at the other man and miss. Looks like he's taking this threatseriously.

=====Dirk Winchester=====

You wake up to a gunshot outside. Where you grew up in Texas it wasn't unusual to hear gunfire, but never this early. You look over and see it's little after 6:00 am and you know the shot came from across the street from this motel you pulled into last night. You were headed to shoot a stunt for a new TV Pilot out in Sacramento and were too tired to ga any further last night and checked into this nowhere town. Looks like this town just got more excitung...
