<Afterlife> Options

[Oliverskx]

The train going through the tunnel moved faster than normal. All passengers had no idea of what had just taken place. Yet Gabriel watched them all from the front of the car. This car out of all others was to be picked for the Afterlife games. The reaper didn't know whether to be sorry for this group or to be excited about being able to run the games for once.

The train now moved through a dark tunnel. This meant Citadel City was near and that now would be his time to start the briefings. His materialization out of nowhere didn't seem to have an effect on the busy passengers at all. He took the appearance of a young boy in a black cloak with white hair and red eyes; the same albino appearance he had when he was alive. *ahem* The gray reaper cleared his throat.

"Good evening passengers." he spoke calmly. "I am Gabriel and I am here to welcome you all to Citadel City before we reach our stop."

"What on earth are you rambling on about?" yawned a young woman sitting in seat 8. "Is this the wrong train?"

"Like I don't even, like, know what this kid is talking about either." another young woman from seat seven spoke.

"That voice sounds familiar..." went the blind male from seat 10.

"You are all a part of the Afterlife games." said Gabriel.

You're forgetting something sir! Show them what's happened sir! came a bubbly voice from his thin black earpiece. Gabriel could always count on advice from his assistant. "It's much easier if I just show you all." Gabriel spoke switching on a monitor conveniently stationed on a wall of the train.

The monitor flashed to news footage. A few heads turned to watch. The broadcast was loud.

This is Tiffany Williams with a mind numbing news bulletin. Right now I'm standing in front of the station outside the city where the train crash that occurred earlier this day is still recovering victims of the tragedy. So far there has been no survivors from what I can tell. More victims recovered from this terrible incident have been discovered to be the bodies of Elanora Jameson, Fae Cantigre, Clarissa Montague, Matthew Jameson, Sachiko Hayashi, Marcus Giles, Thomas Marx, Joe Brody, Ms. Mavin Davis, Stella Marx, twins Allen and Thomas Rhodes, the beloved Fabian Gestalt, Tia Wang, Romeo Willis, Jackie Hayes, Damien Peers and a Ms. Rita Thompson.

Yet insiders say there are still a lot more to be recovered.

"Yo what the hell is this shit?" A scruffy young man in seat 11 shouted. "Is this some sort of joke?"

The monitor footage cut to weeping family members and friends. "So are we like, dead or something, like that?" the female in seat seven asked once more.

"Please stay calm everyone." Gabriel advised. "No one is dead yet. Your chance to gain your normal lives back lies here in Citadel City."

The train emerged from it's dark tunnel and onto tracks leading to an island of sorts. A large city could be seen with a tower in the center that sits high in the sky. The ominous environment seemed to be tinted with the color red. For those who knew no better, this city looked like a picture of an apocalyptic worn place.

"Now are there any questions before I head on to the next subject?" Gabriel asked politely.

"당신� 무슨 ��하는거야?" spoke a little Korean girl as the train got closer and closer the the wretched island.

Day 1 [2:00pm]

Gabriel the Reaper

Gabriel hung in the air like a rag doll. For a split second his fingers twitched to react. Without an angel this man had no power to challenge him. Gabriel would of, could have killed him but he knew The Almighty enjoyed a game that dragged out, or an immensely bloody one. Why the game last week ended before any of the contestants could claim an angel. Gabriel stared at the man with and expression of dislike. He understood the rage and anger but did not wish to remain hanging in the air. He vanished in a cloud of thick black smoke and yet reappeared somewhere outside of the train car. "Why not channel all of that anger into the competition Mr. Brody. I'm sure you'd get very far with brutality like that."

Gabriel made sure to keep his distance and watched as the two siblings exited the train car and ran off into the distance with their angels. The pop idol Fabian began to pat Joe on the back. "Lets hurry. I'm sure this is nothing more than a celebrity prank and that this corpse is merely an actor."

Fabian stepped out of the train and into the environment. "Yes! This is a test for me, Fabian Gestalt to test my limits! Would you Joe like to join me in becoming a fellow reality star!"

His words sounded terribly scripted and his body posture was that of a cheesy cartoon character. The scene was almost enough to make Gabriel sick.


Luci Ferno & Tia Wang

"Like...where the heck are we?" Luci spoke as she and the small child walked around a mass of abandoned buildings toward a bridge leading to an island.

"난 당신� 좋아하지 않아." Tia mumbled to herself before keeping an eye out.

"Like I'm, like seriously tired of running. Like my feet are hurting so bad." Luci whined.

"Food?" Tia asked pointing toward an abandoned diner on the other side of the worn street on which they ran.

"Oh! Thank GAWD!" Luci cheered after hearing the small girl point it out.

The two headed inside but only saw empty barstools and dusty seating all around. "Like you think there's like, any food in the back?"

"Xiao, 내가 그녀를 죽�까요? � 여�는 정� 바보입니다. 그녀는 정� 시�러운입니다." Tia spoke to her Angel.

"Oh Tia! 그녀는 �한 좋� 산만입니다. 당신� 잡히면 그녀는 다른 사람� 혼란시킬 수있다. 당신� 피난처를 만들어야합니다." chimed the small girl's angel reply.

"Like, I don't see any food in the back." Luci's voice rang out from the back kitchen.

Small tia began to barricade the doors of the diner. "Hey! Like little Ting Ting what are you like, stop!" Luci spoke frustrated as she began undoing everything the small little girl had worked to build.

"Shelter." Tia spoke in a panic.

Luci stopped. "Oh. Little Ting Woo is smarter than she looks." Luci spoke realizing the girl's plan. "I should have known, like all asian people are smart."

"...Ting Woo?"Tia mumbled in reply as the two set up barricades in the empty diner to make it their hideout for now.


Fae Cantigre

"Oh...Oh my goodness!....Oh my! Eep!"

The nurse fumbled around the city ruins. So many buildings were reduced to nothing but rubble. Some buildings stood tall but none of the buildings lacked terrible odor, crawly insects or grim, dirt, and mold. It was a nightmare for a woman who was used to cleanliness in every hour of her life. "I can barely breathe!" she gasped.

Oh shut it lady. the angel from her phone snapped. You seem pretty fine for a woman who's competing in a deathmatch but a bit of dirt can make you flinch? Looks like we're not making in far in this competition.

"Oh hush Rubbard." Fae snapped before seeing the figure of a small girl sitting against a wall.

"Oh! Oh my another player I don't know what to do."

Try an alliance lady. her angel snapped before she shut off her phone.

"Oh um, hi! Oh dear don't sit on the ground there it's filthy!" Fae exclaimed as she slowly etched closer to the girl who's name was printed as Sachiko in the Database.

"Oh dear. This is such an exciting competition is it not?" The disgust of her surroundings couldn't leave her facial expression even as she forced a smile. "Oh my name is Fae by the way."

The nurse noticed that the girl held her angel phone. "Oh? An angel which one did you get?"

Hey lady who said you could turn me off! her angel snapped as the screen of her phone flickered on.

"Oh hush Rubbard!"


Clarissa Montague & Romeo Willis

"An alliance? Are you out of your mind?" Clarissa spoke as she walked across the eastern bridge. "Everyone will be trying to kill each other soon. You're lucky I don't blow your head off as well."

"Aye yo that's not cool yo. I'm just askin you to think about it!" Romeo replied following behind Clarissa on the East side bridge. "Aint nobody realize that 20 points x 12 people means over 200 points."

"Your point is?" Clarissa spoke holding her pistol tightly as she watched the road behind them before carrying on forward to cross.

"Yo can't you see? That's like 200 points for me an you to split! Yo we both could come back to life." Romeo explained.

"Yes, if you survive that long." Clarissa spoke calmly. "What are you powers anyway? My angel gave me this sweet number. I can only imagine the abilities I'll get once I stack more points."

"How do I know I can trust you baby girl. You ain't even all that powerful. Just a gun? Yo seriously that ain't even nothin compared to the magic power I got." Romeo spoke using his angel power to place a rune like marking upon the bridge.

"I'm not your 'baby' or 'girl' in the slightest." Clarissa spat back in disgust as she continued her walk over to Dead Man's Land. "Just be gone."

"Aye"

Romeo threw himself toward her with his arms held back as if readying an attack but in half of a second her pistol was out and she pulled the trigger multiple times before seeing the crumpled man's figure on the bridge. She swiftly turned and continued her walk over the bridge. "Ten more points for me." she chuckled.

"Bitch." Romeo gasped as he managed to slowly crawl away.
