IC-OMAHA-Warpath(Megan/John/Gretchen/Jerome/Samuel/Jimmy)

A new day dawns, and with it new horrors. Tensions are rising at Warren Air Force Base, where traitors lurk behind the scenes and the fate of the world may be at stake. A daring mission to Montana is launched, where an isolated ranch receives new visitors - and trouble. In Omaha, the zombie menace seems to be over. The few surviving law enforcement personnel attempt to restore order, but criminals are not going to make it easy for them. Preparations for evacuation are underway at Brooks High School, and a dangerous new threat lurks.

IC-OMAHA-Warpath(Megan/John/Gretchen/Jerome/Samuel/Jimmy)

Post by Mr. Handy »

Z-Day + 1 - 7:06 AM Central Time - Near Brooks High School, Omaha, Nebraska
On the street-
Officer Jerome Hooper and Officer Samuel Kensington led the small group north away from the school, following Detective Gretchen Ehrlich's directions. She and Special Agent John Lake brought up the rear. Between them walked Megan Petrovich and Jimmy Kowalski. They were passing through a deserted residential neighborhood near the school.
OOC,Everyone, please roll Listen. The base skil is 25%.

Jimmy stays clear of the houses, rather walking out of reach from any attackers. He heard nothing except the occasional gravel beneath his boots.

Kensington hears itand quirks an eyebrow, signaling for everyone to stop a moment.

Jimmy stops as he hears the others´ steps halt. He crouches and takes cover by a car and looks back.

On the street-
Samuel Kensington,[b]Samuel[/b] heard a muffled shout of "'Ak'eed!" from within a house on the right side of the street. The voice sounded female. It was impossible to see inside, as the windows were boarded up. [spoiler]Please make a Know roll to see if you recognize what language the shout was. You may also make an Other Language roll if your Know roll succeeds, but you'll only have the 1% base chance.[/spoiler]
OOC,You do not have to roll since someone else succeeded, but it's in your interest to do so anyway. Successfully using the skill earns you a check in it. If you survive to the end of the chapter (which is by no means certain), you may be able to improve it at that time. If you do succeed at the roll, you may also click on the spoiler button above, read the text, and follow the instructions.

Samuel Kensington,[b]Samuel[/b] found the language vaguely familiar, and he recalled having heard something similar in the movie [i]Windtalkers[/i], which was about the Navaho codetalkers in World War Two. He had no idea what the word meant, however. [spoiler]Know roll succeeded with a roll of 51 (70% stat). Other Language:Navaho roll failed with a roll of 91 (1% base skill).[/spoiler]

Kowalski pulls his revolver and keeps it at a ninety degree angle pointing upwards. He gestures at Samuel and the others... "W.h.a.t?!"

"Navaho, maybe?" he mutters, taking cover and looking around.

Kowalski frowns and mutters something about Indians. He fails to notice anything but the street behind them as he turns to watch forward again. To make sure they don´t get ambushed by some gang... "You deal with it, I´ll stay put." He has his revolver ready and waits.

Kensington sees it and points, holding his gun at the ready but not pointing it at what he sees just yet.

On the street-
Samuel Kensington,[b]Samuel[/b] caught a glimpse through a window in a house a short distance up the block. The windows on the ground floor were all boarded up, but the upstairs windows were not. It was through one of those that he spotted a young woman with obvious Native American features. The house was also the one from which he had heard the shout before, which confirmed his suspicions. No sooner had he pointed than she ducked out of sight,

Samuel tries to find a way to pass by the house using cover. "Let's bypass them for now. We can figure it out on the way back."

On the street-
Gretchen nodded. "Sounds like a good idea," she said. "Whoever's in there survived the night and can wait a while longer." She led the way further north. They proceeded on the opposite side of the street to the house in question, using the cars parked along it as cover.

Outside the warehouse-
About a mile from the school, the group arrived at the correct address by following Gretchen's map, a warehouse that looked much like the others in this commercial district. There were two closed garage bay doors in front, with a boarded up doorway just beside them. There had formerly been a door there, but it was gone now.

"Hmm, this looks like it's going to be a pain in the ass nut to crack," muttered Samuel. "Maybe there's an easy way around the back."

Outside the warehouse-
There was an alleyway to the right of the warehouse, between it and another warehouse, that led back. The left side of the warehouse was bordered by a street heading north.

"Any of you real good at sneaking?" muttered Samuel. "We should creep around the building and see if there's any easier access points."

Outside the warehouse-
"I'll go," said Special Agent John Lake. "It's too bad the radios aren't working any more after that EMP. I'll have to come back and report what I see." He slipped into the alley, but he wasn't as quiet as he had hoped.
