Dusty Village

"... okay." Sylvester said after a little hesitation. He still didn't want to split up in such a situation but figured as long as he was only one or two rooms away it would be fine enough.

"Nice." Nikodim said, going to the cassette. He puts it into the recorder.

"Well, if you're hearing this, you're probably looking for weapons. I mean, why else would you be in the police station of an abandoned town? Anyway, if you're looking for weapons, that probably means you found your first monster and survived. Er... Congratulations about that! But there's a good chance that you found something that went down pretty easy... Unfortunately, I got bad news. There are basically three kinds of monsters here. There's the type that you took out. Those guys are pretty easy, I think the most commonly-used name for those guys are... Mooks? Yeah, mooks. Then there's your second kind. The kind of monster that is much harder to take out. From what I understand, I think there are about 11 of these. Finally there's the third kind. There's only one monster here. It's so powerful, it really stands all on its own. It looks sorta like a crab. Only much bigger and more human-like. There's a big issue with this guy too. No matter what I do, I just can't seem to kill it. And it always chases me! But now that you're here, I'm willing to wager it'll be coming for you too pretty soon. Maybe it's linked to the 11 strong monsters? I dunno. So, this message in a nutshell. There are three types of monsters. Normal, Hard, and Impossible. If you see that crab thing, just run. Don't try to fight it, don't even waste any ammo. Just run. I tried to come up with a fitting name for it, but all I could come up with was The Claw. It isn't very good, but that's all I got. I'm running out of room on this tape now, so... Stay safe!"

"..."

"...Idiot." Nikodim muttered before going to the left door.

The figure appears again, following Nikodim.

It seems closer this time.

Nikodim turns around, pointing his shotgun.

The figure chuckles and shrugs.

"...W-what are you?" Nikodim whispers, shaking.

He laughs again, and walks off, ignoring Nikodim.

"...W-what?" Nikodim mutters.

Nikodim opens the left door and swiftly closes it as he enters.

From now on, I'm including a link to the theme of any certain event. Nothing will play for right now, but I'm just putting it out there.

Offices: Nikodim

The area seems a bit odd for what should be a normal office setting. The area is lined with rows of cubicles, which was pretty normal. The odd thing is that at the very end of the room were three things. A flashlight and, like the last room, a set of two doors. Left being labelled "EVIDENCE", and the right being labelled "ARMORY."

(I feel filthy. Bump)

"...Sylvester? Phil?" Nikodim asks.

He opens the armory.

"Yeah?" Sylvester looked at Nikodim "I'm here."

"Found weapon?" Nikodim asked.

He looked around "Yeah, I think so." As he turnedaround he held an old bolt action rifle in his hand "Don't know why the ywould store a thing that seems like it was made in WW II but I'm not complaining." Before he got to Nikodim again he also took a pistol, also real old model.

"Not even Soviet. Romanov, I think." Nikodim muttered, holding one of the pistols. "There was also an 'Evidence' door."

Behind them, the figure watches.

It seems... oddly laid-back this time around. It is leaning back and sitting down, with it's hands under the back of it's head as a makeshift rest for it's head.

"Shall we go?" Nikodim says.

"Yes, oh and I think its a Mauser." He nodded to his pistol and rifle "You lead the way."

Nikodim cocks his shotgun and goes through the armory door. The EVIDENCE door is right there.

Nikodim opens it fearfully.

EVIDENCE: Nikodim

The sight in front of him is... interesting, to say the least. Plastic bags with disembodied fingers in them. Tons of them, each shelf lined with bags of fingers. No blood, just the finger.

It's nice and quiet until the sound of a door being forcefully pushed open is heard in the lobby. Likely coming from HOLDING.

"The fuck's this?" Nikodim mutters.

A madman that wore the armor a knight awoke in the interior of a dilapidated gas station. Awakening from his slumber, the creature found his sword lying by his side, so after exerting great effort to lift himself up from the floor (for his armor was heavy) he clasped the sword by its handle and sheathed it inside his scabbard.

"God must have finally deemed me worthy to send me to Purgatory," He said with a reverent voice that one expects from a holy man, "But what Purgatory is this? If there are damned men here, how may I save them?"

Welcome to Dusty Village: Lawrence

The gas station is entirely empty. Nothing to be seen. Only thing to do now is to explore.
