 The government had finally fallen. An uprising destroyed them, before a hail of star fire fell from the heavens, annihilating everything all over the world. Cities were turned to rubble, and a new age was upon man. It took years to build back what had been destroyed, but only enough to live in. Crime ran rampant, and safety was a thing of the past. Though the cities still appeared as bad as they looked when the star fires fell, beneath the destruction, only the strong survived. There is no more war, only peace between places. Our story however, takes place in one city that was once known as New York.
Jobs are scarce, and everything is so expensive, people are finding it difficult to get by. Illness goes untreated. There are a select few that still specialize in things such as medicine, and produce, but now, in the worlds darkest hour, one family rose to power. The Leviath Family. They renamed the city Apocaliptico, and run a very sturdy business. Fighters. Cage matches are held for volunteers, fighting, sometimes to the death, for money to help protect and feed their faimilies or simply themselves. It is a deathly business, but it pays well. The Darklings are the security in Apocalyptico. They run the streets, kill those as they see fit, and are the destroyers of the city also run and owned by the Leviaths. How would you survive and get out?
Outside the cities is pure wasteland. The only way to get anywhere is by helicopter, all owned by Leviaths. The only places left of beauty are the shores on the lonely beaches. Hundreds have tried to make it, but none have yet to succeed. What would you give to be free? To live in a place the sun can touch, and not have to worry about being gunned down by Darklings? Could you make the journey and outrun the abundant animals that were transformed in the chemical explosions? Could you make it to the island and never have to worry again? That is all that is left. One island, completely untouched by the turmoil. It is so named God's Paradise. Nearly no one knows it's exact location, and anymore it is thought to be a myth.
Can you make it out of the city, across the wasteland, over the ocean, and to God's Paradise? If so, how then would you survive alone? How can love still exist in a place like this? How can existing love manage to pull through the stress and hardships? A group of unlikely people are about to find out. Who would you be in a world like this?

      Meg locked the front door to the bar club known as Synister's, flipping on the 'Open' neon light, along with the other lights advertising dancers and alcohol. Removing her jacket, she set it behind the bar, and got to opening the tops off the liquor. Firing up the grill, she readied the food that could be ordered, and set everything up to her liking. It was just her tonight working with the bar cook, at least on the bar's side of the building. Along the other side, women dressed and readied themselves for their different variations of dancing to entertain the guests. All the lights went on and music began to ring out from the sound system. It had a grungy yet classy feel to the place but that was exactly how the owner, Syn, liked it. He was away on business leaving Meg in charge, which was easy enough for her. Once the customers began to roll in, she greeted the ones she knew and welcomed the ones she didn't. Instantly people began giving their orders and throwing cash into her tip jar. She small talked with them as she worked, asking about their days, and the chatting about the weather.
Syn couldn't keep other female bartenders or waitresses long, for they all got fed up when everyone preferred to be waited on by Meg. It was her happy disposition, attention to detail, and laid back persona that reeled them in and kept them coming. It was a typical Friday night, and once the clock struck eight pm, she flipped on the television as usual, to display the live fight out in downtown. It was the only sport left. Men cheered for their favorite fighters, wagering with one another on who they predicted would win, as Meg ran about filling orders, serving food, and mixing drinks. She did well at her job and part of her always wanted it to stay this way. Tonight, the main event in downtown was a big night. It was two undefeated champions vs. one another. Max Barakat vs. Xayden Rowan. The bets were high and everyone was glued to the television as the opening fights began. Some still wandered about and others too distracted by the dancers to care, but she loved the fights and kept watching with the others as she worked.
When the main event began, she halted what she was doing, grabbed a cold beer, and sat on the bar, watching with everyone else. The tension could be cut with a knife. They all watched, shouting at the screen. 'Jab him!' 'Right hook!' 'Let's go Max!' 'Xayden! Come on!' they would say. Meg didn't have a preference for this particular match, because she thought both fighters excellent. She was unsure who would win, but placed herself a bet with Jenkins, a regular bar attendee, and fighter fan. "I got fifty bucks on Xayden to win." The old man smiled as she put her money down on the bar. He nodded and replied 'Deal, I'll wager that against him. Max has been training for this fight!" As they watched, the rounds went on and on, until finally Xander came out with one of the most powerful backward spiral kicks anyone had seen in years. Half the bar got on their feet and cheered while the other half shelled out their cash to lost wages, none too broken up about losing.
Meg took the one hundred dollars and slipped it into her bag, along with her tips so far, then put it in the safe. "Them is the breaks old man! I told you, I don't see Rowan slowing down anytime soon. He is younger than the other fighters, stronger, faster, more agile, it's all in the physical abilities with that sport. Good wager though!" Jenkins smiled and agreed with her stating he should have known better than to bet against her, but ordered another drink anyway, chatting with the others about the match. Meg wiped the bar and returned to taking drink orders, also taking part in the events of the fight.  OOC: And it begins!

      Xayden stood on the sidelines of the cage, watching the fights before him go down. He was dressed and ready to go, just watching the other fighters like he always did before his own fight. He wasn't the least bit nervous. He knew Max and even though they were opponents in the match, they were civil acquaintances in person. They had agreed to not take anything personally and handle everything like the professionals they were. The trash talking, the fans, even whatever happens in the fight, win or lose. Xayden moved his head with the music that played overhead, seeing the clock and getting his two minute warning. A pair of jeans and his steel toed boots was all he needed in this cage. The fight ended and the announcer called out Max's name. The man entered the cage running around trying to amp up the crowed. When Xayden was announced, he stepped in the ring and stared Max down. He acted as if the crowed wasn't even there, and it drove them wild with applause.
The cage got locked shut and the two men began to circle each other. Max growled and talked his smack saying Xayden was pathetic and something about beating him down. Xayden remained silent and though he glared, he gave a sly smirk that everyone caught just seconds before the bell sounded for the match to begin. Max charged Xayden, as Xayden ran for him as well. Just before the men would have collided, Xayden power slid on his knees ducking between the other man's legs, winding up behind him. In mid spin to get up and face Max, he whipped his leg around and brought Max crashing down to the ground. The crowed erupted and a smile came to Xayden lips, only causing the women to yell louder. Max charged Xayden again thrashing his large meaty fists. Xander backed up and ducked down again, spinning a full force punch to Max's ribs. He stood at full height again an hit him in the face a few times before Max used his feet to try kicking out Xayden's knees.
Max hit Xayden in the face quite a few times before Xayden could counter strike. The match continued on in blatant brutality. By the end of the first round they were both spitting blood. By the end of the second, Max was winded but Xayden seemed fine, with only minor cuts and bruises. When the final round came, Xayden went full force on Max, having saved his strength for this round, knowing Max would be too tired to keep up with him. He displayed a severe beating on Max, until finally, he didn't want to embarrass the poor guy anymore. With one last strike, he spun backward and whipped his heel so hard into Max's ribs, everyone heard a loud 'crack' and Max fell to the floor. The referee came to the center of the cage and raised Xayden's arm in victory. He smiled at the crowed and nodded his head in thanks, waving to a few familiar faces before exiting the cage. He went to the back and waited for Max's trainer to bring Max back. When he was placed in front of Xayden, both men smiled. "Sorry about that...I didn't mean to break your ribs." he said to the fallen man. Max just laughed. "It's my own damn fault. I shouldn't have left myself open like that. Don't know what the hell I was thinking. Great match though! I'll catch up with you when I get out of the hospital. See ya later brother." With that the trainer helped Max up and disappeared with him.
Xayden returned to his home and took a shower to rid himself of the blood. He had a small cut on his eyebrow, and a little bit of bruising, but other than that felt alright. He pulled on a clean pair of jeans, his boots, and a sharp, black, button up, long sleeve. Leaving his home, he walked about ten blocks to Synister's. He entered the bar and a bunch of people cheered for him. He just smiled and nodded his thanks before taking a seat at the bar. When Meg turned around she smiled at him and handed him a drink without waiting for him to order. "Good job out there tonight. I owe you a drink. You see, Jenkins and I had us a little wager and you my friend, just won me one hundred bucks. So thanks." Xayden smiled and nodded. "Well you are welcome, sorry about that Jenkins, maybe next time you'll bid on a winning horse. How's your night going Meg?""Oh you know, nothing interesting. Just working my butt off and running this place like always."
Having known each other awhile, Meg and Xayden considered themselves rather good friends. They never considered a relationship due to their daily lives. Men always hitting on Meg, women pratically throwing themselves at Xayden. They had more of a brother sister sort of relationship going. Both protective of the other. After Meg lost Cas, and Xayden lost his brother, they found a bit of comfort talking to each other about it. They only discussed those sensitive subjects between each other, and no one else had a clue. Xayden considered Meg to be the only 'real friend' he had, and vice versa. They chatted a bit as people came around and bid him 'good job', having fun and watching as the drunkards of the club sang karaoke.  OOC: And it begins!

   The night was coming and Kato was on one of her runs. She ran across the old roofs, jumping and sprinting to different areas, managing to slip away from Darklings. She jumped off the ledge of a roof and in mid falling, she grabbed a long pipe sticking out of a wall. Swinging on it, making three loops, she swung herself off and onto the next platform. She rolled to a corner before a Darkling walked over to inspect the area. She kept her bag close and crept along the shadows to get a good distance away from him. Kato slid down a broken board and started running again, sliding and jumping over obstacles. Kato felt free when she was running around, scavenging. Even though she was very familiar with all the damaged buildings and streets, even the Darklings positions, it was a great outlet. Kato slid down another level before walking to different building to building till she reached home. She walked into the abandoned building that she called home and closed the door behind her. The white haired girl stretched and sighed,"Today's findings, successful. Medicines, can foods for a week and more cloth. I dug gold today!" She puts the food away in the cupboards and medicines in the cabinet. Kato walked to her room and tossed the rags and cloth on her bed as she stripped down to bathe. When she cleaned herself from today's work, she got dressed and pulled her hair up to the side. She pulled on her top and skirt, pulling up her stockings and boots. She walked outside and crossed a few ally ways to get to the club. She wasn't much into the street cage fights, but she like a good glass of sweet Vodka always made her happy.
Kato entered the club and walked through the crowds of people cheering on the cage fight. She made her way to the bar and sat down, crossing her legs. She had good posture on the tall stool and watched the two beat each other up. She turned and people watched at the bar. She requested a sweet cotton candy Vodka. Oh Cotton Candy. It tasted so sweet. Kato took sips of her drink and left money for the drink, plus tip. Kato saw Meg and waved a bit. She and Meg had no special relationship, just know each other from customer to bar tender, but if Kato found something extra, she would give it to Meg if Kato didn't need it. She stood up and walked over to the two. She held out her hand and said, "Here are yesterday's finds that I thought you might like." She handed her a moon and stars bracelet. "I wasn't able to get it to you last night. One of those damn shadow puppets stayed at his post last night. I spent the night in a chimney." She said in her thick accent. She was irritated about it, but at least she made it back alive. She saw the cage fighter, clean and free of blood. Kato looked at him and back at Meg. "Extra tip is on counter for you. Please give a dollar to the man that served me. You keep the rest." Kato walked away and started go and dance to the loud upbeat music.

 I wish people didn't see me as a Monster... Finishing his last target, he put a bullet in Mr. Grueso's head. The man was a ringleader in attempting to kill his parents and had owed a mob shark money. He took the mans wallet with a large sum of money before returning to the streets. A Darkling approached Galeic, "Sir, your parents will be expecting you now." The man's face was hidden under a black gas mask and black hooded coat."Fine, return this to Mr. Gauls and be with your post.""Yes, sir," The man bowed slightly before walking away. Galeic hated seeing his parents, but they needed to know the report. It was a good night however. Managed to target one man and fufill two requests. It's a rare case to have those nights. Therefore, he should celebrate. A nice drink should do. But he would have to disguise himself as usual. He cleaned off his gun before retreating to New Yorks town hall where his family took refuge and claimed the mayors office. He walked in and knelt to his parents,"Mother, Father. The deed is done. You have no current threats.""Good job, Galeic. You will make an excellent ruler after us. You may rise," His father stood up as Gale did. "The night is quiet tonight. Other than the clubs thrashing about. I want you to take the night off, but keep your eyes and ears open for any other possible threats. We must keep a tight city," His mother said sitting on the desk, crossing her legs."Thank you, mother and father. I will keep a close eye and ear while I am out," Gale said leaving. There wasn't much love between the Leviath family. No pats on the back, no hugs or kisses. Just verbal praise. And he was screwed if he was to ever go deaf or they lose their voices. He left the hall and headed to his own apartment close by. It was nice compared to the regular apartment buildings that people lived in. He placed eye make up around his eyes and made sure to have a long sleeved shirt to cover his tattoo. He pulled his long black hair back and changed out his lip piercing to a clear ball. He changed his pants and walked out the door with a black hat on. He didn't look like a Leviath and he wanted it that way. Gale walked to the club, seeing that the fight had been over and people were dancing and drinking their night away. He saw a girl dressed up in an interesting fashion and started dancing to her. He started dancing with her. It was Kato. She narrowed her eyes and turned around, dancing with a random woman. Gale thought she was playing hard to get and placed his hands on her hips, swaying with her. Kato was shocked by what he was doing. The 5'6" girl swung her leg to the left side of the 6'3" guys head.. Gale jumped back before she could hit him and put his hands up. She narrowed her eyes and pointed at him with a 'You better watch it' look before she started dancing again. Well, no luck there. He danced till the song was over and walked to a bar tender wiping down a table. She was pretty, so he thought he would help. He took the basket out of her hand and collected dirty dishes to the next table. He smiled at her and said, "Interesting night, isn't it? I wanted a drink but I thought I'd help before bothering you for a beverage. I'm Gale." He was a gentleman and stuck out his hand to her, being proper and nice.

Meg smiled when she caught site of Kato and waved back to her. She liked that the girl could trust her to know what she did for a living, and not rat her out to the higher ups. She looked down at the bracelet given to her and smiled brightly. "Oh my gosh Kato, thank you! This is beautiful! I am sorry about the chimney. Text me next time and I will distract the Darklings. They can arrest or kill me for anything if I make up some crap about being lost or whatever. I'd be happy to help." Meg clasped the bracelet to her hand and loved the way it looked. Kato had such good taste and such great clothes, that Meg wished she could be a little more like her, instead of always dressing in jeans and tank tops or tee shirts with one of her two favorite jackets. She scooped up the money and placed a dollar in a tip jar with the other bartender's name on it, subtracted what went in the register, and pocketed the rest as instructed.
She looked out to the dance floor to see Kato had joined the people there, then glanced sideways at Xayden. She wondered why he wasn't dancing. He usually did after a drink or two, but tonight he stayed at his bar stool and conversed with others from the bar as the highlights of the fight played on the television screen. Taking her phone from her pocket, she slid open the unlock screen to check the time, and for any messages she may have missed from Syn. The messages read 'empty' as well as voicemail, and the clock read ten o'clock. It was then she was face to face with a photo of she and Cas together. She looked down at it for a few moments before hitting her side button to darken the screen and took a rag to the bar, picking up empty bottles along the way. She missed Cas, but she knew she would never see him again. Her hand raised up to her neckline, fiddling with the jewelry that hung there. Snapping back out of it, she walked around the bar and to a dirty table, taking away the empty food baskets and wiping it down.
Shortly thereafter, a man approached her and took a basket from her hand, offering his help before bothering her for a drink. She half smiled at him, finding it a bit odd, but accepting the kindness as a blessing of sorts. Maybe he was just naturally nice? Having missed his interaction with Kato, Meg went around the bar to end up in her usual place. "Well thank you, that was very sweet. I am Meg. Pleased to meet you Gale. What can I get for you to drink?" She gave him a smile as she grabbed a few different liquids and mixed them in a glass. Placing a napkin on the bar she set the glass on top of it and slid it in front of Xayden. "There you go Xay, that one is on me this time, for being such a faithful customer." He nodded to her in thanks but said nothing right away, keeping his eye on this Gale person. Meg didn't noticed Xayden's watchful eyes as she turned her attention back to her new acquaintance. "So what will it be angel eyes? Vodka? Whiskey? Pick your poison honey I got all night." She smiled and waited, then turned around to pour his request. "So what brings you here? I haven't seen you around these parts before. Did you come to watch the fights?" She leaned on the bar, having nothing else to do but talk with this interesting new stranger. OOC:

I wish people didn't see me as a Monster... Helping the waitress, he carried the dishes to the bar and handed them to her, not knowing where they go. He sat down at the bar, watching her. "What a pretty name. It suits you. You look strong and have a level head. Rare to find in these times, if you ask me." He thought for a moment and asked, "May I have a cold ale?" He leaned on the counter and smiled at her, kindly, "Oh, I've been here before. Just not as often as some. My job entails me to stay some nights, just to avoid the Darklings... They always get in the way." Which was true. Gale didn't know how many times they attacked him only to find out that they are attacking the cities Prince. Making it harder for him to get his target. He couldn't count how many times they attacked him. He took a drink out of the glass and sighed, "This is good ale. No, I came to celebrate a small victory. But the cage fights are a bonus. Who won tonight? I'll but the winner a drink." He asked curiously.
After a few songs, Kato came back to the bar to sit down. Belly dancing takes it out of you, but doing three songs in a row really does take it out of you. Most people's stomach would ache like hell, but Kato was used to it. It just wore her out. She sat down next to Xayden and asked for another cotton candy vodka. She crossed her legs as she leaned on the bar. "I'm glad you like the bracelet, Meg. Sadly, I don't have a phone. I see no point on having one in these times. Besides, I don't want you to get into trouble with the shadow puuppets. I've slept in worse places before. Is there anything you need me to find for you in particular? I go back out tomorrow morning." She took another drink of her Vodka.

Meg smiled at the man's compliments, though it wasn't anything she hadn't heard or wasn't used to. She acknowledged Kato with a grin, having her drink ready when she walked over. She slid it to her and responded. "Well perhaps you should get one just in case. I don't need you getting yourself caught by those damn Darklings. Actually, if you could find me the materials to make a new belt I would love that. I can make you one too if you'd like. The one I am wearing now is rather worn. Great dancing! I can't move like that, wish I could." Turning back to the prince she was oblivious, as everyone else was, as to who he truly was. "Actually our champion for the evening is Xayden here. He really took the crowed for a spin and pummeled Max tonight. Best fight I've seen in ages." She stated flashing a smile Xayden's way.
She prepared Xayden's usual drink and handed it to him, putting it on Gale's tab. She neglected to write Kato's charge down, telling her that one was on her. She loved socializing, and these three were by far her favorite to mingle with, at least for the evening. They were keeping her mind away from Cas, the anniversary of his death closing in on one year exactly. She poured herself a tequila mixed drink and leaned on the bar, listing to the others as they spoke. OOC:

Xayden watched over Meg as he liked to do, making sure no one was trying to pull a fast one on her. He watched the doors making sure he knew who was around but when an unfamiliar face entered he kept a watch on him. He watched as Kato, the queen of the slums, shoved him off of her and couldn't help but laugh. Denied! When the man gave up and approached the bar, Xayden remained silent rolling his eyes as the man complimented his friend, and nearly scoffed as he helped her clean up. It wasn't until the man asked about the fights that he looked back over to him. How could he not know who won? It was all over the city by now. Was he def? Rolling his eyes again, he looked up and smiled as Meg praised him waving it off like it was nothing. He wasn't boastful like the other fighters, just saw it as a job, and means to make money, helping himself survive in this world. He liked it better than his day job, requiring him to go and kill off animal hybrids and mutations to keep the city from falling under attack.
Kato appeared and he nodded to her respectfully, listening to the conversation between the two. Speaking up he decided perhaps she could find his information useful. "You know what Ms. Von Gear, there is a tunnel that is hidden from the knowledge of the Leviaths. It starts in a hidden place near my home. No Darklings, no security nothing, and it can get you from there to just about every section of the city undetected. Even the forbidden sector that they demand no one enters. I've been there, and the only security is near the gates. I am sure, if you were interested, you could use it to scavenge a ton of undiscovered treasures there. Just a friendly suggestion. You are good at what you do and I too wouldn't like to see you get caught. Those Darklings don't die very easy. If you need to strike one down, however, I could give you a few tips. I used to scavenge myself back in the day when this all started."
The others spoke openly about their acts against Leviaths because anyone in the slums couldn't possibly be one of them. The noble bastards everyone knew the family to be wouldn't be caught dead in a place like this. What they spoke of held a death penalty if they were caught even planning it, let alone succeeding in the act. Xayden thanked Gale for the drink and toasted their glasses together. "Hey, thanks. It wasn't a big deal. Just doing my job. So whereabouts are you from? I don't believe I've seen you around. You look familiar to me, like I've seen you somewhere, but I see so many faces on fight nights I couldn't place you if I tried. I assume that is where I may have seen you, at fights?" He asked, being polite as he always tried to be. He fought enough, in the cage, and on the outskirts of the city, that he didn't like confrontation when he was relaxed, and off duty. He took a drink and looked to the new man, knowing there was something he was missing, but having no clue where he knew his face from. OOC: And it begins!

Kato took a drink and raised an eyebrow when she saw Meg not take her tab. She was going to leave her at least a tip. She sat back on the chair and kept her legs crossed while holding her drink to her chest. She wrapped her arm around her stomach as she sat. She looked at Meg and said, "My dear, I wouldn't know what to do with a cell phone. Besides, those Darklings do not scare me. I could do that for you. If you want I can make it for you when I get back. Do you want the same color and design? Oh, thank you! It takes a lot of practice, maybe I can teach you sometime." She listened to everyone till Xayden had spoke her name. She looked over at him and heard what he had to say. It was perfect! Something she needed! So now she didn't have to sleep in chimney's or basement that she thought were haunted. You can kill a Darkling, but you can't kill a ghost... She shivered a bit at the memory. Kato nodded and smiled a bit, "Thank you, Mr. Rowen. I'll take that into consideration. My scavenging can go a lot better. Ever since I started taking out a few Darklings, they have been packing on the guards lately... I know they don't die easily, I killed my first about two Winter's ago. Not pretty. I was softer then. Had partner. Thank you though. I'd love to see it. Possibly early tomorrow?" She grinned a bit. She was excited about the new way around the city. She's been to the forbidden section but that nearly cost her life when she ran into a grizzly and her cub along with two Darklings... Kato found awesome loot near there, but barely got any of it back. She looked over at Gale when he started explaining where he used to live and how often he came here. He looked familiar and he talked pretty. She didn't like him. There was something about him that didn't seem right. Kato knew almost everyone here in the bar. Faces at least. She didn't care for names except Megs and Xaydens. She finished her drink left Meg a good tip with the total for the next glass she wanted. For a small Russian girl, she handled her alcohol better than a pure blood Irish town drunk. Kato narrowed her eyes and gently bit the inside of her cheek at Gale. "I don't trust you, Mr. Gale. You look very familiar to me and I know almost everyone here. Plus you hit on my girl here. Neil always said don't trust those who talk pretty," She glared a bit before taking a drink of the Vodka refill. She drank all that was in the glass and stood up leaving a tip again. "Meg, Thank you for the lovely evening. I must head home. I have an early start tomorrow. I'll find what you need, dear." She stretched and let her long white hair down.
