Welcome to Gaia! ::

Pre-Halloween 2007 Plot:



In Barton Trench, there lies a house. Within this house, a man by the name of Count Von Helson awaits for the results of a test. What results, you ask? Why, none other than the results of his daughters' procedures.



You see, ever since the fall of Gambino Tower in April of 2005, his beloved daughters have been lying in a dormant state. Some would call this state 'death'. But to vampires, this state is known as nothing but a recovery period...



With a triumphant roar that shakes even the northern coast of the Isle De Gambino, the Count declares his daughter's revival, though this time, they have awakened their full vampire abilities.
His first order of business? Revenge. The Count begins by leading his daughters out to the Gambino's current locations.
Little do the Von Helsons know, the Gambinos have been treated by LabTech123 with a special variation of the G-virus (used by LabTechX in order to gain strength).



When the Von Helsons reach the Gambinos' mansion, they immediately notice a difference in both Johnny and Gino's appearances. Having been injected with the G-virus, they have nearly doubled in height and mass.
Filled with overconfidence, the Von Helsons begin their attack, quickly finding that they are no match for the might of the over-powered Gambinos.
With this discovery, the Von Helsons quickly retreat with the intentions of 'recruiting' a legion of vampires for a return.
On their way out, the Count accidentally hits a button....

-------------------------

During all that madness:

Remember the Count's reaction?
With that tremor, waves crash, sending water into the crater created by Johnny and Gino's separation in April of 2006, creating a new lake.



And the button the Count pushed while retreating?
A tank containing the G-virus leads to a drain coincidentally ending at the ledge right above the crater.
The button, later to be found out, is an emergency release, in case of intruders or someone seeking to exploit the G-virus. By releasing the G-virus into the newly formed lake, they had unknowingly contaminating both the water, and the fish...

Where one story ends, another begins.

Pre-Halloween 2007 Plot (continued):



[Scene opens in a cave, Ian is sitting in a makeshift chair.]

Ian (Sighing): It's been quite a while since I've last seen the Boutique, I wonder how poor Rufus is holding up. Even for a cat as intelligent as him, managing such a busy shop can be stressful.

[Ian stands and looks outside the cave, frowning at the clouds above him.]

Ian: And Sasha, I bet Gino's been all over her when he noticed that I've been gone.

[Ian kneels, punching the ground, and we see that he is in the cave at the Durem Reclamation Hub.]

Ian (Stressed): What I would give to end this rivalry with Gino. I must get rid of him. But how, how can I do that after witnessing his power that day?



[A presence alerts Ian, who turns around quickly, to see two faces who seemed to have brought back nightmares, as if they had come back from the dead.]

Von Helson Sisters (Casually): We might be able to assist you in your thirst for vengeance.

Ian (Shocked): B..B...But you wwwere sup-p-posed to be d-d-dead. That t-t-tower. It...

Von Helson Sisters: Yes, we realize that, but your brother's plan on taking both us and Johnny down had one flaw. Lack of intelligence. Of course, there was no way that he could have known that we Von Helsons come from a long line of vampires, which explains how we managed to survive that tragedy.

Ian (Calming down): Brother? He was the sniper?

[Ian begins pacing.]

Ian (Talking to himself): There's no way. Why would he want to kill me?

Von Helson Sisters (Growing impatient): That is not what we came here to discuss. We were asking you if you would like to get your revenge on the Gambino's.

Ian: You mean, join you as a vampire in order to kill the Gambinos? No, I would never give up my humanity for something as self-destructive as revenge.

Von Helson Sisters (Smirking): Do you realize that at this very moment, your love Sasha is relaxing at the beach, with him? That Gino Gambino, that bushy-browed little twerp is hitting on your woman? I see. We should be leaving, obviously you have no interest in proclaiming your love to Sasha, she and Gino would make a much better couple than you and her ever would.

Ian (Enraged): What. The. $*@# did you say? Of course I care, I can't have her fall into his hands. I can't.

Von Helson Sisters: And the only way to do that is to join us. Both Gino and his father have somehow gained immense strength, and are more powerful than a mortal like you can fathom. But by joining us and becoming a vampire, you will have gained immortality and will have the strength to overpower young Gino and exact your revenge.

Ian: How can I believe you, the ones who accuse my brother of attempting to kill Johnny and I?

Von Helson Sisters: The real question is, how can you afford not to believe us?

How... How can I possibly choose?

Pre-Halloween 2007 Plot (continued):

Meanwhile, news about the new fishing spot spread quickly spread around Gaia, and while every dedicated fisherman (and woman) traveled to the lake, none had been able to catch anything.

Old Man Logan (Frustrated): Grrr. Why can't I catch somethin' in this place. Seems ta me there be no fish here, not even a boot ta catch.

[Moira walks up to Logan.]

Moira (Nonchalantly): So, old man, have ya caught anything yet? I've heard that no one's even gotten a bite since this place formed.

Old Man Logan: Somethin' has ta be wrong. The way I figure it, this salt water came from tha ocean surroundin' the crater. There should be plenty a' fish to catch, yet there be none in sight.

Moira: Well, the water is slightly green, it makes it hard just to see into it, you never know, there might be something in there. Just keep tryin'.

[Logan sits for a second, and a smile comes across his face.]

Old Man Logan: I see now that I've been goin' at it all wrong. There has'ta be some fishies in this lake. They just haven't taken ta this Grade A bait is all. And this rod, it's not right fer these waters. I need something special.

Moira: What are you rambling about, Logan? I thought the best bait out there is sold in your store, and you sell Grade A.

Old Man Logan (Smirking): Yer partially correct, young lady. Ya see, the best bait out there is in my store. No one said anything about me sellin' it. Now if you'll excuse me, I need ta get back ta me shop and get some stuff together.

[Logan walks off.]

Moira (Confused): What could that crazy fart be thinking of now?

[Moira hears a large splash coming from the lake behind her.]

Moira: What the?

[As she whips around to check out what's going on, she sees someone who evoked both a great rage, and a great passion.]

Moira: LIAM? What are you doing here? I thought your three-timing butt was back at the Crate taking care of the sales.

Liam: Are you kidding? Everyone is at the lake today, whether it be for fishing or for watching others fish. I could have stayed at my shop and dealt with the customers, but there are none.

Moira: Whatever. So what did you just catch a second ago? And why are you using that cheap Basic rod?

Liam: It's the only one I could find, Logan's shop is nearly empty, I was lucky to get his last Basic rod too. And this fish? I'm not sure what it is. It looks kinda like one of those Chargin' Chinos that Logan has mounted in his shop, but this one's green, and it looks a bit larger than Logan's.

Moira: You're right! That thing looks like it must weight a ton, huh?

Liam: Yeah, it's a good thing I've got these pecs and biceps to help me out.

[Liam flexes and grins.]

Moira: Oh shut up you vain idiot. You were the first one to catch a fish here, and it's something that's never been seen before, so what are you gonna call it?

Liam: Whoa, I didn't even think of that. Hmm... How about Grindin' Grino?

Moira (Laughing): Grino? You really are an idiot, Liam.

Liam (Defensive): Hey, if you can think of a better name, go out and catch a fish for yourself.

Moira: Chill. For now, I'm leaving. You can be the one to break the news to Logan that he wasn't the first person to catch something.

Liam (Looking at the fish): You seriously are one weird catch. What's this?

[Liam looks closer at the fish.]

Liam: Wha? Red eyes, and what are these little bumps on the top of your head?

[The Grino's eyes flash and it emits a high-pitched screech. Liam's eyes flash red before turning back to normal.]

Random Gaian: Hey, everybody, come check out what Liam caught!

Grindin' Grino? Liam, you sure come up with the strangest names.

The Last Lines (of the After portion):

[123 walks up to Ian and Sasha with two vials.]

LabTech123: Ian, take these and use them to restore you and Sasha back to normal. With them you can become human again.

Ian: Thank you, but how did you know we would need these?

LabTech123: Ever since G-Corp was beginning to dwindle, I needed something to consume my time, lately I began researching vampires after hearing the rumors of them existing here. So I eventually found a cure, and when I had heard that you two needed it, I prepared two doses and ran here as fast as I could.

Ian: Well I can't begin to thank you enough.

LabTech123: Forget it. It's the least I can do for you two.

[123 walks off, and Ian suddenly remembers someone he hadn't seen in what seemed to be an eternity.]

Ian (Whispering): Brother? Was that you?

The End... For Now.

Reserved

(I'll be done reserving whenever someone decides to post. I doubt I'll need this many posts.)

But of course, you can either fight along side the VH vampires, or the Gambino grombies (version 2.0, less lust for braaainsss).

I'll explain that in the 'During Event' plot theory, I've still got to write that portion.

Hailz yeah.

Nope, I was thinking more along the lines of a temporary new fishing spot. 3nodding

And maybe some merpeople.

Mutant zombie fishhats?!

Yes, please. For me.
