Explosive Meetings |

Who: Sparky and open to all When: Night Where: the mall What: Trying to signal survivors.
It was a dark night in Chicago, partly overcast with a slight breeze from the west. Perfect fireworks weather Sparky thought to himself as he walked across the roof of the mall. Their little group had discovered the fireworks and decided to use them to possibly signal other survivors in the city, overruling Sparky’s choice of the looping Macarena song on the radio. Now armed with a PVC tube as a makeshift launcher Sparky got to work setting everything up and was ready to go a short time later.
“If only I had more time, I could time the explosions with music and put on an awesome show and have like laser beams and stuff. Aw well, maybe next time. Now which one should I use,” Sparky wondered as he perused the fireworks of varying size. “Oh! This one looks good”
Selecting the largest one Sparky slid it into the launch tube and quickly lit the fuse. “This is going to be so cool.” Practically hopping form foot to foot Sparky waited impatiently for the firework to launch. And waited, and waited. “What the hell, is it a dud?” Of course right when Sparky leaned towards the tube there was a burst of light and a loud thud as the firework launched and missed his head by inches. Moments later there was a burst of bright green light in the air followed by a loud bang. Blinded by the initial launch, and with his hair smoking, Sparky looked up at the sky as he laid on his back. “Dammit! I missed it. Oh well, just have to fire off another I guess. I wonder what would happen if I packed two into the same tube.”

Who: Jason, Ashley, Olena Where: Chicago, nearish the mall When: Early morning, week 4, Monday
Status: Closed/Completed Summary: While out relaxing, Jason hears people approaching. After a little taunting from him while he's invisible, he reveals himself to Olena and Ashley. In his paranoia, he decides they're here to steal his supplies, and there is some aggressive posturing from both sides before a display of power by Olena gets Jason to back off. He retreats, and the girls go on their way.

Who: Zeke When: Week 2, Monday Morning Where: A mall in chicago. What: He's setting up a little hide away
Zeke sat on the counter of MacDonalds sucking up chocolate milkshake through his straw watching the food court for signs of, well anything. He knew he needed to make a plan. He couldn't after all live here, alone, virtually powerless. He needed to find some adults, some heros. But he had really no idea where to look. So, he sat, he watched, he pondered.

Who: Liz and Open When: Week 2, Sunday Morning Where: On the mall's roof plus roaming charges What: Liz reaches out with her mind, searching for anyone who might be close by in Chicago.
Liz sat on the rooftop of the mall. Most of the doors were welded shut but the roof one had been left alone. After all who ever heard of climbing or flying zombie. If they were zombies. Liz wasn't all that convinced that what had attacked them the other day had been on. She hadn't been able to pick up any thoughts from it but the brain hadn't seemed dead. But that was not what she was up here for.
Wrapped in a shawl she had taken from one of the stores to protect her from the cool winds of early March in Chicago, Liz closed her eyes and focused. She wanted to know if there was anyone left out there besides her and Sparky. Anyone who wasn't zombified. Reaching out with her mind, Liz scanned what she could of Chicago, the most being a few mile radius around the mall, for a thought, a brain wave, anything that screamed alive. At the same time she broadcast her own thought. "Anyone out there?"

Who: Aiden and Ivan When: Week 2, Monday Afternoon Where: Just outside of Joe Louis Arena. Detroit, MI What: Aiden takes a run up to Detroit to see what is left and if anyone is about.
After his supply run with Marco, Aiden knew there was something out there. It was just a question of whether there was anyone else out there besides the two of them. Detroit was a larger city than the one he and Marco were currently staying in. Maybe someone up there had made it. It was worth a shot and with his superspeed it was only a short trip away.
Aiden stopped when he reached the city. It seemed a bit dead. Still it would worth a look around. He started to wander the city. He never called out. If there was more of the things that he and Marco had ran into, well he didn't want to draw them out. A sound inside of the arena made him pause outside the building.

Who: Taini and Open When: Monday late morning. Where: Streets of Chicago What: Taini's lost her companion and thinks she hears something disturbing.
She clung to the wall and gasped taking deep breaths. There was that noise again. What was it?! She poked her head around a corner and spotted something. Was it moving? Was it huge?! She darted back around the corner and turned in the opposite direction but heard another noise and clung to the wall once again. She took a deep breath and walked slowly trying to see what this noise was. It was different from the other noise from up the street.

Who: Marco, Aiden, and Open When: Week 1, Thursday Afternoon Where: A Wal-Mart just outside of Kalamazoo, Michigan What: Marco and Aiden go insearch of supplies and learn they're not the only thing ones shopping at Super Wal-Mart.
Aiden had taken a day to settle in and explore the Kalamazoo Air Museum and the area around it. He kept his watch set so whenever he was around Marco it wasn't for long and he had slept on the other side of the building so he wouldn't have to get up every two hours and leave the room. His ability might have been considered a powerful but man it could be a bitch.
This morning he had scouted farther out, covering a lot of ground in a short amount of time thanks to his superspeed. He over looked the same stores, instead looking for larger ones that still had power so they could stock up on several things at once. Luckily a Super Wal-Mart just outside of Kalamazoo was still standing and with power. They'd be able to get food, clothes, and everything else at once. Now that he knew where it was, Aiden ran back to get Marco. The Grasshopper would be able to hold more than he could carry.
