Alien Warfare: Role Play

"Finding the others is not what concerns me. It's something else. Something about the situation that just seems abnormal." The second lieutenant glanced at Blair, whildt shaking his head. "What are we even here for. This is not what I signed up and trained for ten years to do." He paused for a moment to double check his rear. "Where was this in the Military brochure. I know thats a pointless fact but it doesn't say anything about half the stuff we actualy have to do."

Blair rolled her eyes and sighed heavily. Great... She was stuck with the guy who does nothing but complain. "Yeah well get over it. We're here and we have our orders. And we aint getting out until its Mission Accomplished." She smiled. "And yes, I did just tell you off."

"Right. Thanks for the heads up." Loran said. "and I wasn't complaining." (This guy is not the hero type)

Alex had been behind Blair & Loran the whole time. Minding his own business. His M16 was lowered but his grip was tight. "Cut the chatter ladies.." The silence was bad enough. Now he was out here with arguing demolition freaks.

"I'll shut up when I want, so shh. I out rank you, buddy." Loran snapped back quietly. "But you are right. Stay on your toes." He hefted his own rifle, scolding himself for his slip. He was nervous, of course he was. Who wouldn't be, but he was here.

"Well rank isn't everything, Lieutenant!" Alex could see Loran was nervous. But he shouldn't blame him. Their was something strange about the silence. It sent shivers down his spine. Alex wasn't one to tell or show people how he felt. He just got the job done. Its not that he's anti-social. He just felt it wasn't anyone elses business.

Blaid popped the strap off of her holster, leaving her Beretta free to grab if the need arose. "Anyone else wondering where all the aliens and stuff are? You know... The whole screaming mobs and such... This is just plain creepy."

was waiting for Shaggs to post but i got bored.))

Lana turned and ran back to her apartment building. she hoped those people where following. They had big guns and she wanted what ever did this to suffer with a rain of bullets.

Shrieks of terror erupted from the city, but they seemed different, almost like recordings, but each on was different, but still seemed like a recording. Jacob took off, leaving the other two soldiers with Lana. He rounded a corner, and to his dismay he saw a very tall, slim creature that was an opaque black color. It looked at them with a thick armored shell over it's head. The shell opened just enough for it to let out the same recorded scream, the scream of a young woman. "What the ****!?" he yelled as the creature looked at him. It just stared a for a second before letting out another sound. "What the ****!?" it responded in Jacob's own voice.

Blair’s heart sank. Off in the distance, about 4 blocks ahead of their current location, she heard another scream. She bolted in that direction, running as fast as she could to reach them. In her mind she saw a creature pinning a teenage woman to the ground. This compelled her to move quicker. She brought the butt of her MP5A5 up to her shoulder in a smooth and familiar motion as she rounded the corner. Her breath caught in her throat as she stared at the back of the creature. Finally she caught her breath. "Holy shit... Dear god.."

Alex watched as Blair suddenly sped off. He turned to Loran looking a little puzzled. "Does she know anything about staying here and keeping watch? Guess not." Alex began to walk backwards, still talking to Loran. "Might as well follow her. You coming?" And with that, Alex went after Blair. His knees slightly bent as he ran through the deserted urban landscape.

The M16 was now raised. His heart beating ferociously. ALex turned the corner where Blair had left before he stopped. Standing behind Blair, he looked over her shoulder at the large, black being. "Woah.."

Jacob looked over to see his two squad mates, and then raised his weapon, firing into the monstrosity. As the bullets hit the creature, it just shrugged them off, almost completely undamaged. It let out a series of horrifying screams of it's past victims and then swung at the soldiers.

Lana came to a halt as she looked back to the gunfire. What!? She ran back to where the gunfire was, curiosity getting the better of her. And as soon as she turned to where they all were she was the creature. Her eyes widened and she let out a terrified scream before turning and running off again.

((gah.. being the helpless victum isnt any fun.))

Loran didn't even bother to reply, knowing that talking would not solve their objective anymore. Instead he burst forward, making his way down the few blocks of deserted street, slightly behind Alex. With gritted teeth and shakey yet determined hands he brought his rifle's butt to shoulder and swung around the corner, skidding to a halt right there and then. The sight beyond was one that had his jaw drop, and heart-rated quadruple in it's beats per minute.

The ungainly black mass of the creature first struck Loran and then, as his eyes took in more light, he almost released the contents of his stomach involuntarily. His hand shook on the trigger but he didn't fire when he saw the effect bullets were having on the thing; that is to say, there wasn't one. "Oh shit..."

Sweat pooled at the edge of his eyebrow and slowly trailed down his face. He glanced over at the others before settling back on the creature at it let loose a scream of annoyance and swung at them. He was out of its range but knew that he was in immediate danger if he didn't move fast. "Move! " He shouted at his team units. Blair and Alex both ahead of him. "Back!"

Jacob stopped firing and saw how his team was trying to fall back. "Hold position! That's an order!" Jacob fired to draw the creature's attention away from the team. "Just shoot the ever-loving hell out of it, and see what hurts it!" ((I have a gorey scene saved up for the alien.))

Blair's mind worked through several different ideas. She could try and explosive round, but Jacob was too close to the creature. She didn’t want to open fire and risk hitting another team mate with the ricochet. But she was given and order. She was shaking, that much was obvious enough, but her aim remained unaffected by the shocking sight of the creature. She opened fire, keeping one eye on the monster and another on her team mates.

Alex watched as Blair opened fire. His hands shook for a moment before aiming and placing shots into the creatures back. The bullets collided with the shell-ish armour on the creatures back, ricocheting and dinting it. "Any other ideas?" He yelled to Jacob who had stopped firing.

A truck slammed into the creature from an alley way, pushing it over into the wall, pinning it there. A tall, very muscular man stepped out and grabbed a sledge hammer from the bed. He walked over to the creature and raised the hammer, bring it down on the creature's head. It didn't kill it, but cracked the faceplate. He brought it up again and slammed it down even harder, shattering the faceplate. One last swing crushed the creature's head, killing it.

Just as Alex was about to fire, again. A truck almost seemed to magically appear from the alleyway and collide with the creature. But it wasn't magic, just some nut and his truck. Alex still had his gun raised. But it was now pointed at the truck, not the creature pinned to the wall. As the tall man stepped out of the tuck with the sledge hammer and approached the creature, Alex thought he should do something. But he didn't. He just watched as the creature took three mighty trikes to the face.

Blair staired wide eyed and mouth open as the man bashed the creatures face in. She glanced at her team mates, wondering if she was the only one shocked by this. Well there was nothing too shoot anymore so she stood quietly and waited for further orders.
