Freshman Quest: Apprentice Guard Duty
Quote:
After certain events happening (right under their noses!) it was decided there were not enough guards to keep their eyes on everything. The goal of this quest is to start training for guard duty earlier than they have prior to now. All freshman will be assigned to a higher ranking member to show them the ropes.

Quest Notes:
-This is a RP format Quest! No dice, just RP.
- Choose one (or more than one if you'd like!) Scenario below and RP it out.
- The higher ranking officers mentioned are random NPC's, just pretend it is some random member of the group mentoring your character(s).
- You can do this Solo or in a group! Just pretend each of you is assigned a NPC mentor.
- Make sure to make a note somewhere in your post(s) about wearing your Jersey! You are leaving the dorms so the Jersey is required.


Scenarios:


1: You and your mentor spot one of the infected getting a little too close to the dorms. Quietly look around for something (you're choice) to throw as far away from the university as possible - The noise will hopefully attract the infected away! Does it work?

2: Investigate a strange noise you hear. It turns out to be nothing (perhaps just a mouse or maybe a fellow team member playing a prank?) RP out what you find!

3: You discover part of the University where the lights have gone out mysteriously. Making a mental note to tell the leaders, you decide to check it out as well. What do you find? (most likely a false alarm! Just a fizz'd wire~ )

4: On the rooftops of the dorms you peek over the edges to the open grounds below- What do you see? Infected? Burning Objects? Other people? Nothing? Remember to stay quiet if its an infected or other people! No need to give away our position.

5: WILDCARD: You decide what happens! But remember, no battles!

Requirements:
- Being as this is RP format, 800 words is required to consider this quest complete!
- If a single person is doing this, write either a one post solo or a multi post solo-thread if desired!
- If in a group, 800 words is still required per person total.

Rewards:
- Upon completing this quest each person will receive +4 Credits! (If in a group EVERYONE needs to meet the 800 word requirement before you can claim credits!)
- If you complete more than one of the Scenarios, add +1 Credit (Max of 5 credits total for this quest.)

She'd been bitten, scratched, and felt sore all over, but Kammy was feeling pretty good about it. Not only had she had helped to protect the campus with her bare hands, but the mob had totally spawned some sweet loot. (What actually happened was she found a box underneath a sink in the washroom, and in it there was a discarded net. But she will maintain she got it from the zombies).

With her new item safely secured to her persons, and a quick trip to the medical office to get patched up, Kammy was ready for help out more, and went to ask the leads what she could do. She soon found out everyone was to start helping to guard the place, but she'd needed a high ranking member to help out. She was then assigned a rather tall lanky guy chewing bubblegum who looked pretty uninterested in the whole affair.

"We'll check the rooftops to see how everything's going outside." He mumbled, then started walking in that direction, leaving Kammy to catch up.

Jane was fairly unaware of the situation. Why was she chosen to learn guard duty? She didn't want to be on guard she thought as she slipped on jersey number 8. Her skills of blending into the back ground had failed her though so she was stuck following her mentor around. she was a peppy girl, excited to be training someone else officially.

"...and then we smashed it's legs off with a hammer. It was rather gruesome. but hey you got to do what you got to do right? I mean it's not like they even feel anything any more. Just dead meat. Creepy moving dead meat but dead meat. So I was like... Oh hello!" Her mentor waved at the other one. "We were just looking around for any problems. None so far." she grinned.

Jane herself was looking a little green. She didn't like the idea of having to touch the infected. No matter how much it meant her own survival. She didn't want to throw up. that would be bad, luckily she didn't have anything in her stomach to loose. still... that whole situation sounded gross and unwanted. Not at all pleasant.

"Help me." Jane whispered to Kammy.

If it was one thing that Justin was aware of, the campus ground was a lot, he supposed that a sport heavy university it was expected to have. Really, who needed two Olympic sized swimming pools? Instead now it was drained to hold the pile of bodies, both moving and unmoving. Out of sight, out of mind he reasoned. It was deep enough not to be able to climb out for the most part. it was convenient.

But it still didn't explain the breech from earlier today. It still left the brass feeling uncertain, enough to have everyone do a sweep of guard duty. where there was one infected, odds were there was others laying in wait too. Justin didn't bother to fight it and went to do his share, tagging along with Kammy, keeping tabs on the girl. Maybe she had a nose for finding them, maybe she was just good at finding trouble. He didn't want her running around with some sort of backup. The Jersey was thankfully mostly black and wasn't a giant neon blue beacon of ATTACK ME PLEASE, it was worn before following behind Kammy's footsteps, as per his mentors instruction.

"You're looking back to normal already." he stated, "Hows the Net working out for you?"
The Blonde scowly faced male, arched a brow when the plain Jane named Jane looked like she was going to hurl. "You sure you Don't want to visit the infirmary there?"

"Thanks, I'm feeling great too. And the net is amazing. Almost as good as the internet. Almost" She grinned at Justin and gave him the thumbs up. "How did you find the mob fight? Always good to debrief after a run, so we can figure out how to do better next time."

"No problems here." Kammy's mentor replied to the other. "We're gonna check the roof. Oh, you're telling that story again? Did you tell them how we had to saw off their arms with a rusty knife? Wasn't much blood though, but considering they're all rotting and not fresh-"

Kammy didn't want to touch infected either, and the arrival of the peppy girl was quickly draining away her resistance to gross, her own mentor not helping in the slightest. Though Jane looked worse off from the discussion, the pleading whisper met with a whispered reply of "How?" She then looked to Justin for answers upon how to solve this situation.

"please... please make her stop. she won't stop." Jane tried to not hear the continuing conversation.

"Oh I had not gotten to that part yet. I'm saving the best for last after all." the peppy girl said loudly and cheerfully.

Jane winced. "Can we just do something?" so she could go back to her dorm and hide? She wouldn't even look for her dog out on the roof. It wouldn't likely do her any good.

"I'm teaching you how to deal with things. That's training too." the peppy girl smiled an ignored Jane's protests. Perhaps she was trying to Gross her out, or perhaps she was really trying to keep her student safe. It was hard to tell.

Jane walked to the roof's edge and looked down gloomy. She didn't see much just the street and the litter. Not even dead bodies... the bodies were all walking.

It was like those girls at the club that talked without no filter from their brains to their mouths, Justin reflected on, to be fair some of the guys did it too. The mentors were quickly pissing him off, his jaw set firmly as he took in a deep breath between flared nostrils. His mentor wasn't even paying attention to them. Too busy trying to scope for booty to care about chatter. " I found the fight cuz Corey has a loud mouth, we should consider a type of signal that can alert everyone of an incident, preferably with not much in the way of sound. " He would have offered the idea of a rigging of warning lights or strobe lights, but with them so low on electricity, it would be impossible.

Enough was enough, "You know, I could just throw you right off the roof on one of the Infected and you can show us firsthand how to deal with them. I wonder if you'll cry, or scream and eventually SHUT THE HELL UP." he bit out. "Have some respect for your fellow underclassmen, you two sound like a couple of psychopaths, maybe Corey should have you all Evaluated and see if you aren't a threat to the colony." he mentioned, waving the threat of potential lost status at them.

Senior or not, he was a grown a** man that had no time for nonsense when it came to being on duty.

Kammy was trying to ignore their seniors by listening more to Justin. "No sound? Dunno about that. We don't have much else in the way of alerts. Maybe a computer alert? But we have no computers. What about some sort of flag system?"

"Who's gonna man the flags then?" Her mentor commented as he looked over the roof as well. "And do we have any? I't would be better to use them to bash some skulls in. Though a hammer would be better. Just like my friend over here did - oh, wait sorry did you want to tell them that?"

"Okay, seriously, stop talking about all the gore, it's really gross, and poor Jane's about to be sick"

He didn't appear to be listening to Kammy or Jane, more interested in Justin's sudden outburst, his interest defiantly raised and being told he should be kicked out. "How about you, shut the ******** up, and grow a dam backbone you little s**t. I hate to break it to you but if you wanna make it another day, you're gonna have to see some guts, because these things- "He indicated to the few walking dead on the ground. "- Are not phased in the slightest by a little bit of blood, and will gladly introduce you to your own internal organs."

Peppy girl frowned. "No don't be like that guys, no fighting. Guard duty is hard and isn't for the weak of heart. I'm just telling you so you can all be prepared. That's what we are here for, preparation." she tried to smile again.

Jane just clung to the side of the building looking wilty and sick. "Please don't cause a scene... I don't want to attract any attention." actually could the ground just come up an swallow her right now? that would be nice. then even if she did die she wouldn't bother anyone and she could just be done. "There might be infected about... or worst."

Peppy girl finally picked up a hint. "Well looks clear here, why don't we check around elsewhere?"

Justin held his tongue, this was not the place for that, nor did they want to bring the infected attention toward this spot if large quantities. The seniors ops were trying to prepare them in their own morbid way, he supposed. "Being weak of heart won't matter when its fight or flight, we've elapsed nearly a month in this waking nightmare, i'd say prep has already been finished, but i won't push the topic." holding back the comment that he wont save the seniors when their foolishness gets them in trouble.

Jane was right with trying to quench the fire between them, bringing peace to the argument. "ok Jane, no beef here." he insisted and went back to surveying the area. "Kammy, the flag system would be nice, but thats only if we are paying attention to it on a constant basis, and what if our line of sight is blocked? No, it may have to be a sort of sound system."

the Mentor guy didn't answer Justin, except to just roll his eyes and turn his back on Justin to mumble something about 'pretentious little shits," before speaking loudly to the peppy girl. "I heard the old drama hallway lights aren't working so we should check it out."

"Ya think so? Damn, though we'll need equipment for that." The girl went to Jane's side, reaching out to rub on her back, pausing a moment, then awkwardly pat it instead. "No scenes here. Or cut scenes either. I think we're moving out to check out this dark area. Probably be zombie mobs there too we can fight."

"There wont be any zombies" Her mentor spoke up with a hint of annoyance as he walked off, "It's just a fuse. Happens all the time."

"Maybe there will be equipment for a sound system them..." She mumbled.

"Uhhhh sound might attract more infected though." Jane tried really hard to not focus on the previous conversation

She didn't mind being patted and gave Kammy a small smile, thankful the small attempt at making her feel better. It only worked marginally, but just having someone who cared around was nice."that and it will go out if the power goes out... right?"

"Uhhhh... the dark? But aren't the... you know... those things in the dark?" the unliving terrified her more than the infected. The infected, you could see, you almost do something about. Though she had mostly run from them. The unliving were.... worst. you couldn't see them and they lurked in the dark. the nice thing was they only lurked in the dark. It was safe in the light. hopefully.

She shuttered remembering her trek to the college. She didn't even live that far away bu the way here was terrible. And that was before things got that bad.

Preppy girl nodded. "To the drama hall then." she lead the way down to check it out.

Slowly Jane followed, not really wanting to, but knowing it must be done.

"I know Jane, but maybe, if its at a certain frequency, maybe the infected can't hear it." Justin brought up, remembering his talks with
the sound crews for gigs. "if its low or high enough, it could possibly be outside their hearing range, Might be a good little experiment for you undergrads." he mentioned, taking a mental note to bring it up to the heads as the seniors they were with didn't seem interested in using their brains.


"Maybe if we are lucky, we can put the infected in feathered boas and large hats, that'll be a riot." the senior leading him chortled. Justin could only seethe behind the figure and wish to throw him off the stages rafters in a "accident".

"Right" Kammy said to Jane as she followed her mentor towards the location of the drama building.

"No, there wont be any undying here in the university. The other day was just a fluke alright?" Opening the door with a huff, the mentor took one glance then precoded through. "Ohh noo, I hope nothing attacks me down here." There was deficiently a hint of sarcasm in his voice as it grew more distant. "Ahh, what ever shall I do - Ah, here we go."

A few minutes passed as Kammys tumbled around trying to look out for mobs, before the lights suddenly flickered back on.

"Told ya. Just a fuse."

"I think that they can hear as much as we can...." she didn't have the science but they were just basically dead versions of themselves. right? She didn't think they would be able to jury-rig something up that would be useful in time. Not with what they had.

"I don't know, that didn't seem like a fluke..." was Jan being a pessimist? Maybe, but considering, she just wanted to be prepared.

"Oh thank goodness, just a fuse." Jane still lurked close to Kammy, feeling safest there. Clearly she was a wuss, but hiding had kept her alive up to this point. That and her dog who she sorely missed. Perhaps her dog was alive somewhere. She hoped so, she would like to find her again one day. But if she was safe, Jane liked to think she was safe.

Peppy girl grinned. "Good we got that fixed!"
