Anya rubbed her hand along her jawline. Yesterday it had hurt... had been broken and yet today it didn't. Pain didn't go away like that, not when a jaw was broken or fractured! Something weird was going on... but she didn't mention it for fear that others may consider it a new sort of "infection" or something bad.
A sudden boom caused her to flinch as she turned and stared at the fireworks being launched. Fireworks? Either someone was in dire need of aid or was distracting the infected so they could flee.... right? Why else would they be going off?
She headed that way, out of curiosity mostly... and found more strange things to confuse her. Lights, sounds... a casino? How were they keeping it lit? How were they keeping the undying and infected out? Suspicious...
As she entered she scowled at the scents hitting her nose. Alcohol and cigarettes... After a month and a day of none of these being available.... the sudden scent of them was foul and disgusting.
As she wandered around, she eyed the people playing games... it was as if this area hadn't been it by the virus.
"Welcome to Delta Casino!" She was told by some fancy dude. "Here we use casino coins." She silently accepted them and wandered off, trying to figure out just how this was possible. What cheat did they use?

Not Playing Your Games!
Your character refuses to play, for a variety of reasons. They just stand there. Make a new post in your [ Casino solo ] thread and RP out why your character refused. When you are done, continue reading the post below!
Make sure in this post you include your usual OOC segment [ AND LOG THE AMOUNT OF CASINO COINS YOU HAVE ]. You should have a base of 50 to start!
Anya avoided the games and the drinks for now. She needed a clear head! Despite the air of festivities and decadence in here, she felt like something bad was going to happen. Why now all of a sudden had the casino lit fireworks? Why not earlier? There'd been a whole month of rationing and fear and fighting... Had they been safe this entire time? Why not bring in everyone? It didn't make sense.
There had to be a reason why and she didn't think it was a good one.

When the dizziness came, when the fog rolled through her mind she knew she'd been right. They'd opened the casino for bad reasons... Her last feeling was of anger. How dare they!
She awoke tied to a chair and still pissed off. She was far more angry at the fellow humans who would do such things than she'd ever been angry at the bandits and other survivors or infected. She listened with rising anger to the claps and announcements. She had to buy herself out of this? She had to play their game? Fine.. but when they weren't looking she'd start breaking things, find ways to let infected in if she could... just to shove these disgusting people's face in the fact that they were not above the rest of them!
Remain silent.
Before you can talk again, an attendant, wearing the Casino suit and vest, comes over and grabs you and your entire chair. You are dragged into a separate room. There are two people in the room, in the same situation as you.
"Now," booms the announcer voice in the new room, a much smaller one, "these are the losing players from the last game. A Bunch of sore losers if you ask me. But we're giving you a chance to redeem one as their patron. If you manage to buy yourself out of the games, then you will also buy one of them out too. Now, which one will it be?"

She staid silent as he paused, anger in her eyes. She barely flinched when her chair was dragged off. She expected the worse of them "Dinner auction?" Sounded ominous....
She looked around and met the eyes of two other people, both terrified. She had to choose one? What would happen to the other? She choose the boy: he was far too young to let die! Both were.. but he looked like her teenage brother back home...
"You sick bastards." She muttered as she glared at the attendant
Choosing the boy
[ The Young Man ] He's a very honest looking young man, probably in his late teens. He stares numbly at you, mouth currently covered. He keeps on alternating between crying and shivering uncontrollably. He looks like he hasn't even graduated from high school.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You select him and they begin to untie him, dragging the lady off to the room beyond. The lady screams the entire time, and you feel obligated to ask what is in that room, when suddenly the man you rescued dashes for the exit the other direction.
Immediately, several bullets are fired, and the teen dies. You stare down in disbelief.
"What a freaking waste," exclaims the announcer, "well, whatever. I guess you don't get to be a patron after all. Now, let's continue onwards, shall we?
She nodded towards the boy and watched with a sad sinking feeling at her screams. She wanted to ask for both of them but knew these disgusting people wouldn't let her save two. But she wasn't even given a chance to save one... the boy ran for hte door and gunshots sounded. Anya watched in horror as they killed him without hesitation.
"Hey! You could have not shot!" She exclaimed, anger building up again.
