IC-SWORD-Outrage(Lara Voronova only)

Darkness now shrouds the zombie-infested land. At Warren Air Force Base, various survivors and USAF personnel try to hold out against the hordes, but will internal division tear them apart? In western Nebraska, most of the captive women have found their freedom thanks to the rangers' intervention, but two of their captors have gotten away with one of them as a hostage. Can they escape from a new horror and find a way to rescue her? And in Omaha, though the zombies are no longer a threat, danger still abounds. A large group of survivors has holed up in a school, but a band of violent juvenile delinquents, a drug-dealing gang, and others may prove a greater peril than the dead. Who will suvive the night, and who will never see the sun rise again?

In the motel room-
As soon as Nitro disappeared through the door, Lara began trying to slip her hands free from the cord that bound them. However, it had been tied very tight. Tears spilled afresh from her eyes. Outside, she could hear Nitro's laughter join in with Deadeye's, along with the sound of wood being torn and smashed.

Lara strained at her bonds, but her efforts were just as useless. More laughter and crunching wood came from outside.

In the motel room-
Lara made more strenuous efforts, and while she could feel the cord around her wrists starting to loosen, she wasn't free yet. Outside, the crunching stopped - and screaming began!

"Yes!" cheered Lara. "KILL THEM!"

In the motel room-
Lara still couldn't free herself. Outside, the screaming suddenly stopped.

"Die, die, DIE!" she shouted.

In the motel room-
The only sound Lara could hear from outside was a kind of chewing and crunching. She rejoiced that the men who had raped her were being eaten, but how could she keep from being eaten herself when she still couldn't free herself from the cord?

Lara frantically wriggles her wrists to get free. To her devastation the string from the blinds hold her bound to the bed posts. She draws a deep breath and spits at her wrists to possibly make the string more flexible. Desperately trying to collect her thoughts to decide if she really is better off free... She decides she´ll have to get free and then decide what to do.

In the motel room-
Lara remained bound, but she realized that she was gradually loosening the cord. If she persisted, she might get free yet - hopefully before it was too late. The sounds from out on the balcony continued unabated.

Finally! She slides her left hand out of the string as the knot has widened enough. She uses her free hand to get full freedom and looks for something to defend herself with. In her nakedness she tries to find her panties to put them on while ooking for anything to use as a bat. The creeps didn´t leave a gun, did they? She itched to put a bullet in Deadeye´s head - giving him a tribute to his name...
Perseverance kicks in and she clams down - better to get out unseen by the monsters eating the skins than drawing them upstairs. If she hasn´t got them up the stairs yet, chance was they´d be content as they are.
Should any of the skins have escaped from downstairs, Lara will come after him with a vengeance.

Windows, weapons clothes? In that order!

Lara is in manic mood. Safety then revenge if that´s still an option...

In the motel room-
Lara quickly realized that she didn't even have panties. After everything that had happened, her memory was a blur, but she gradually recalled the situation. She had taken them off when she took a shower back at that small farmhouse. When Mutt and the other skinheads had come for her and her friends, she had been in a hurry to escape. She had only had time to grab the towel, which now lay on the motel room's floor, and had left her underwear behind.

The only window in the motel room was in the same wall as the door, right next to it. The door stood open, but she couldn't see from here what was going on beyond it. All she could hear was that dreadful chewing sound. The skinheads had left none of their weapons behind, of course, nor was there any clothing in the room.

Reluctantly, membering the ordeal of getting to where she is, she wraps the towel around her chest and tucks it in place so it barely covers her. Then she heads for the wimdow to see if she can get it up. No chance she´d take the stairs...

OOC,The window is right next to the door, and both of them lead out to the balcony. There is no other way out.

Lara snatches the sheet from the bed and sneaks up to the door opening to try to get down the stairs from the balcony. The sheet will if nothing else be a way to distract anyones vision when fleeing. The sheet can be used to cover a zombie´s head to make it harder to follow her. She steps out hoping to find a real weapon and to be able to get out of here. The zombies present hopefully are entertained by the skins.

Fingers crossed, she makes it out on the balcony

In the motel room-
Lara's legs felt weak and wobbly after what she had just been through, but she was still able to walk, albeit not quietly. She gingerly crept out of the open door.

On the balcony-
When Lara emerged onto the balcony, the first thing she saw was Deadeye's corpse lying at the top of the stairs. Only one of the ghouls was present, and it was on top of him, disemboweling his remains with its teeth. Blood and entrails dripped from its mouth, and its fierce red eyes seemed to smolder. It paid her no heed.

Nitro, on the other hand, was very much alive, to Lara's dismay. He stood watching the scene just a few feet away from the door, holding his AK-47 in his hands. He showed no sign of noticing her.

The stairs were not the only way down. The rope made of bedsheets that Nitro had set up lay in a pile on the balcony just in front of her, with one end tied around the balcony's railing.
OOC,[b]Lara[/b], roll Sanity for seeing the zombie. Sanity loss is 0/1d10. If you lose 5 or more Sanity, roll Idea. If you fail that roll, you may act freely. Otherwise, you go temporarily insane. Also, please roll Spot Hidden, at 1/5 of your skill due to the darkness. Since the base skill is 25%, this gives you only a 5% chance.

It´s not the sight of the zombie that gets her, it´s that scum holding the AK that stops Lara in her attempt to take in the scene. Nitro had not been in her mindset when she exited the room, at least not alive. Many scenarios goes through her head as she realizes this is the end. Nothing else steals her attention as she stares down from the balcony...

On the balcony-
The physical and emotional trauma that Lara had endured was just too much for her. She remained motionless, with no will of her own, as events unfolded around her. After a couple of minutes, another zombie staggered into view below from the direction of the highway and the town on the other side of it. Sensing a meal, it shambled up the stairs to the balcony and joined its fellow ghoul in its disgusting feast. A third zombie arrived from the same direction as the two on the balcony rose from their meal and turned on Nitro. One of them grabbed him and began to squeeze. It hurt him a little as it tried in vain to bite him. The second zombie also grabbed hold of him as the third mounted the stairs slowly and reached the top.

Lara finally came to her senses. Against all odds, she was still alive. Shaken to her core, but alive.
OOC,[b]Lara[/b], you'll need to roll Sanity for seeing these new zombies, but you're mostly used to them now. Sanity loss is 0/1. If you fail your Sanity roll for seeing the second zombie, you can lose no more Sanity for seeing zombies this chapter. If you succeed, you must roll again for seeing the third zombie. You may act freely now. You are indefintely insane, and in fact you have been for some time. Your indefinite insanity is post-traumatic stress. Enjoy!

Coming out of her stupor, only to see yet another risen dead - makes Lara flinch but it also makes her snap into action. She uses the bed sheet she holds and flings it at the zombie just ahead of her. Then she uses the 'rope' to get her down from the landing to the bottom floor. She wraps it in aloop around her arm to avoid falling head over hells down on the floor boards.
At least, that is way she envisions herself to do...

Any weapon is out of her mind at this time, just escape - is on her mind. Anyone stopping her will be met with force.
