Choose Your Own Adventure

[Shorty]

Rules:
1. Anyone can play. Anyone can decide the character's next course of action.
2. Anyone can write up the next scenario and the next choices (minimum of two, no maximum). Otherwise, I'll be coordinating this adventure. Please keep your hands and arms inside the compartment and your seatbelt fastened at all times.
3. Stay alive!

Make the right choices and live. Don’t, and you won’t survive.

You are an ordinary citizen of EoFF, minding your own business at your very dull, very boring accounting job. You are happy with your position and your nice, pristine, air-conditioned office. You're happy with your cheap coffee. You're happy with your normal car. You're happy with your uneventful life.

But that all changes today. There has been a disaster and millions of people are feeling the wrath of a nuclear weapons failure. You are in danger and your building has been bombed.

You wake up in the office trapped under a desk. You look around and see the office is destroyed, blood stains are around you. You get a sudden chill and see there’s a gap in the building.

You push a desk off you to find no other living soul around. But the blood stains, oh, the blood stains. You move around some desks and can see the gap in the building better. You start to wonder what happened, should you explore the building and look for survivors? Maybe you should exit the building and look around the city. Or maybe you should look out the window to get a better view of the city. What to do?

Do you:
1. Search for survivors.
2. Get a better view.
3. Go down emergency exit stairs.

SEARCH FOR SURVIVORS

[Shorty]

As you examine the destruction of your floor, you see no survivors or bodies, only blood. “That's weird,” you think to yourself. "Where is everyone?"

The corridor you find yourself in is a dark one. With the electricity out, the only source of light are some flickering bulbs at the end of the hallway. Sparks pop from outlets every once in a while, but there are no other sounds to be heard. "Eerie" doesn't begin to describe the setting.

But wait. What's that? It is a noise! Something is around the corner. Should you arm yourself? Could be dangerous. To your right, there is a fire ax bolted to the wall. To your left, there is a filing cabinet drawer that has fallen out of its track with a hammer in it.

Do you:
1. Choose the ax.
2. Choose the hammer.
3. Proceed without a weapon.

OOC:	How high would I be in the building? Floor-wise.

OOC:	How high would I be in the building? Floor-wise.

OOC:	Good question! Twelve stories. You are on the ninth story.

PROCEED WITHOUT WEAPONS

[Shorty]

Breaking the glass would have no doubt alerted whoever or whatever it was around the corner of your presence. And the hammer? You're not a peasant!

You stealthily proceed down the corridor in silence. As you do, you notice something on the carpet of the hallway in the flickering light. What's that? More blood? Is that...? What? It looks like something very large and very bleeding was dragged down this hallway.

You begin to fear the rustling, shuffling noise you hear.

You get closer to the corner of the corridor.

Closer. Another step. Closer.

Closer.

You peek around the corner and...!

(SPOILER)YOU RUN RIGHT SMACK INTO SEPHEX!

"Hey, man! You almost gave me a heart attack!"

Under the faint and flickering light of the overhead bulbs, you can see that Sephex is clearly at his wit's end. His eyes are wide with fear and he doesn't seem to know what's going on or where he is.

What do you do?
1. Ask him if he's okay and what happened.
2. Scream and run the other way.
3. Keep moving and abandon him in the dark corridor to fend for himself.

[Pumpkin]

1. Ask him if he's okay and what happened.

[Shorty]

"Sephex, man, are you okay? What happened?"

Sephex doesn't respond. He is staring blankly at you, as if he can see right through you.

You shake him roughly and frantically by the shoulders and give him a good, hard slap across the face. "Get ahold of yourself, man!"

There, that seems to have done it! He blinks and shudders, shaking his head like a wet dog. "Oh, forgive me! I was just fantasizing about being at edczxcvbnm's place playing Super Mario Bros just like old times instead of being in this godforsaken place!"

He seems to be alright.

"Do you know what happened here?"

"No, I couldn't tell you. I remember the explosion and then I got knocked in the head with some shrapnel from the ceiling caving in on the other side of the building."

"Where did all of this... blood come from?" Sephex shrugs. "Have you seen anyone else beside me?" Sephex shakes his head.

What do you do?
1. Ask him to join you.
2. Wish him well and part ways.

[Laddy]

Ask him to join.

[Shorty]

"How about we try to find out what happened together?"

"Yeah, that would be awesome. I'd hate to be stuck here by myself."

"What do we do now?"

"Where did you come from?"

"The other side of the building. Like I said, the ceiling caved in over there. There's nothing over there, really."

"There was an emergency exit stairwell where I came from. Should we try there?"

"Yeah, sounds like a plan."

The two of you make your way back down the corridor, dodging and stepping over filing cabinets that have been knocked over and trying not to slip between the papers and blood all over the ground.

You reach the emergency exit.

"Do we go up or down?"

What do you do?
1. Go up to get a better view.
2. Go down to get out of the building.

[escobert]

Better view!

[escobert]

well this was fun for the 2 seconds it lasted

[Shorty]

I forgot about this since The Big Event was going on today. INTERMISSION, RETURNING SHORTLY.

[Formalhaut]

Aw damn I'm going to love getting into this. (Realises that I can write the next scenario, takes the option of doing so)

Both you and Sephex ascend the stairs, one step at a time, each one doing their part to keep the other calm and ready. It felt like an eternity, stepping warily up the stairs, making a clunking metallic sound with each footfall. Eventually, you reach the fire escape of the roof. Even from here, you can hear the forlorn sirens of police and ambulance vehicles.

Sephex heads onto the roof first. You both immediately scramble to find utter carnage. All around you, the skyline burns orange as fires, both large and small, ravage the surrounding concrete jungle.

"The..the... WHAT DID THIS!!!??!?!??" Sephex screams, shaking you. He clearly appears panicked from this sight. You cannot blame him. You too feel just has scared, but you keep calm regardless.

You want to try and calm him down, but what should you say?

What Do You Do?
1. Tell the truth and say it was because of a nuclear bomb attack
2. Feign ignorance and say you don't know
3. Try and change the subject, keeping his mind off the disaster
