[QUOTE="talien, post: 4947385, member: 3285"] [b]Time and the Serpent: Part 2 – The Wasteland[/b] Hammer stepped out into a nightmare. It was a destroyed city. Clouds swirled and thundered above. Sunlight barely filtered through, bathing the place in perpetual twilight. Wind tore at him, filled with debris. Hammer choked and ran over to the rusted hulk of a long-since abandoned car, covering his mouth. Ssuthraa appeared, followed by Jim-Bean. "Did it follow—" Hammer didn't get to finish because the allosaurus roared through the gate right behind them. Jim-Bean kept running straight down the street. "Loop back around!" shouted Hammer. His pistols were out, but they weren't going to help him much. Jim-Bean ducked into a crumbling building. The allosaurus smashed its snout into the doorway, partially collapsing the façade of the building on it. Roaring in pain, it took a few steps back. Then it lowered its head and slammed into the building again. Jim-Bean barely made it up the steps, dust and debris falling all around him. The building's structure had already been weakened by whatever apocalypse had befallen the distant future. The allosaurus, frustrated, stomped off to pursue a moaning noise in the distance. Jim-Bean looked around. He was in what once was an office building. Peeling posters, broken chairs, and shattered desks abounded. There was curiously no paper anywhere, and a complete lack of monitors of any kind. Was this the future? Jim-Bean wasn't sure. He didn't think it was an alien world; the seats looked human enough. Walking into the conference room, he found a few desiccated bodies, sitting in chairs and slumped over a large table. It looked like they were having an important meeting. Whatever happened had killed people instantly. Jim-Bean found a keypad with an odd arrangement of letters at the far end of the room. He tapped a few keys. A hologram sprung up. An older woman's head appeared, looking wan. A husky female voice narrated. "[FONT="Fixedsys"][COLOR="DeepSkyBlue"]Imagine a world where you can reverse the effects of age, stress, and sun.
