Choose your own horror (for reals this time!)

Alright, some of you may recall [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=26626598]this thread[/url] in which I essentially took a character, gave him zombies, and made the whole thing a total farce. That was all well and good, but I think I owe you guys something a bit more serious this time around.  I know I've been saying this for months now, but this could literally be the last thing I write on this board before I'm gone. So, in the spirit of Halloween, I give you the revamped (pun intended) and revisited "Choose your own adventure"...horror style.(All rules in [url=http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=26626598]this thread[/url] still apply) ----------------- Kevin woke up with a throbbing headache.  He could barely remember anything about last night.  All he knew was that he had gotten drunk, met a girl, it was a full moon, and then everything else was blank. Vomiting in the toilet made his hangover a little better, but he still felt sick.  When he looked in the mirror, Kevin's eyes were drawn to several long scratches on his neck.  He shrugged, figuring it must have been a wild night. He walked into the next room and sat down on the sofa.  The television was already on and Kevin saw a breaking news story about some sick people in Los Angelas.  He changed the channel.  [i]Everyone's sick in Los Angelas[/i] he thought to himself. To his surprise, the same news story was playing on that channel, and every other channel he flipped through.  "What's this?"  he muttered.The newsanchor was in the middle of a sentence, "to please head straight to the hospital.  Proper measures will be taken to ensure your safety and the safety of those around you." At that moment there was a knock in the door.  Kevin opened it to see several polices officers standing before him with grim expressions on their faces."Hey...is something wrong?" The officer closest to him nodded, "We need you to report to the hospital."  Eyeing his neck, the officer suddenly drew his baton, "Please don't resist us, we're trying to help you." "Uh huh," Kevin said slowly, staring at the baton with a heightened sense of anticipation. [i]Should Kevin:1. Resist the officers.2. Go to the hospital peacefully.[/i] [Edited on 10.26.2008 3:23 PM PDT]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SgtSTFU Where are you going?[/quote] A two year mission for my church. ------------- "It's now or never," Kevin muttered grimly. Eileen nodded, her face set with determination. They both heard growling come from behind and turned to see that the vampire minions had climbed onto the roof and were fast approaching. "Take care of them," Kevin said, turning back to the vampire, "I'll deal with the vampire." Without waiting for a reply, Kevin rushed forward, firing his pistol into the vampire's chest. The vampire had his arm up in time to ward off the shots, although one managed to pierce his belly. He swung his arm straight out when Kevin got close, but Kevin managed to duck into a roll just in time and popped up right next to the vampire. The vampire closed his arms around Kevin faster than he'd expected and squeezed while slowly flying high into the air. Kevin gasped for breath as his hands popped open in pain, dropping the gun to land clattering on the roof. His lungs screamed out in agony as his rib cage was pressed against them, stopping the air from flowing in. It was then that Kevin noticed his close proximity to the creature's neck. The smell of blood suddenly became the only thing he noticed. His human mind briefly fought against it, but the lack of oxygen and the enormous amount of blood pouring from the vampire's body drove Kevin over the edge. His mouth open in pain suddenly closed over the creature's neck, tearing at its jugular. Immediately the vampire's grip loosened, but Kevin reached his arms up, not ready to let go just yet. He took one bite, relishing in the juicy flavor, his stomach finally feeling some satisfaction after being deprived for so long. Kevin continued to tear away at the vampire's neck until his wings gave way, and then they both began to fall. Kevin wasn't paying attention as he shoved every bit of vampire flesh he could into his mouth. When they hit the roof, the shingles broke apart like twigs beneath an elephant and the two animals landed in the room where it all started. The vampire absorbed most of the shock, but Kevin, in his weakened state, was still knocked unconscious from the fall. [i]Once again, I'm going to have to wait till tomorrow before I continue. Besides, it's not like there's many choices I could give when the main character is unconscious, right?[/i]

  • I just finished reading all of this. You are a really good writer, you should seriously do something this as a profession. Although it doesn't matter since I'm not the first one to answer, I guess I'll go with 3 as well.

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] silentsmurf [quote]Lupine's Syndrome[/quote] Lupine? Lupin Professor Lupin? werewolf. is that a coincidence or did you do that on purpose :) but anyway this is pretty cool...[/quote]It's on purpose, but it has nothing to do with Harry Potter. J K Rowling named him Lupin (As in the flower, I think) which sounds like Lupine, a small clue I guess, but Lupine is just a term describing something related to a wolf (Canis Lupus). EDIT: By the way, nice story Halifax. Just finished reading what is up so far. [Edited on 11.01.2008 5:57 AM PDT]

  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] SumoMafia Hey Halifax! Answer this! Sam woke up in his abnormaly large New York appartment. His chest was throbbing and hurting as if someone had hit him with a baseball bat. He got up and went to the bathroom to brush his teeth. When he looked in the mirror, he saw a massive cut at the corner of his mouth. He stopped brushing to check it out. Judging by the area it was in, he thought something had forced his mouth open wider that his skin could bear. Bewildered, he sat down at his computer to check the news online. When he read the top story, he sat back in his chair. It read, "Following a strange chain of events last night, a large crack in the pavement of 3rd street" That was two blocks from Sam's appartment. "Speculated to be an earthquake, the crevace appeared and caused hundreds of dollars of damage to nearby houses and vehicles and starting elecrical fires. Two hours after the incident, officers reported multiple deaths and several in the vicinity of the crevace and surrounding areas and several people missing. Police officers report several of the same kinds of crevaces all over Long Island and the surrounding counties. All residents are being advised to stay in their homes and to not leave until notified." Sam was nervously pacing his living room, his chest hurting more and more. What should he do? Should he stay inside like the news said? He had family members in other parts of New York, and he wanted to be sure they were alright. On the other hand, the place where the people had die was two blocks from his appartment. He decided to turn on the tv to see what was on the other news stations. It was the same story on almost every channel. His chest was killing him. He really wanted to see a doctor for it, but it might be very dangerous. But then the chest pain might be something serious. What should Sam do? 1. Go to the doctor 2. Stay in his appartment. BTW, not trying to copy you. This is my own story.[/quote] dont be -blam!-. this is his story dont get yours confused with him

  • "What now?" Eileen asked, firing a shotgun blast into the vampire ranks, knocking them back. "Follow me," Kevin shouted and ran back into the room the bats had come from. "We've got to get on the roof!" "What?" Eileen demanded incredulously, "What are we gonna do up there?" "There has to be a way down from the roof," he looked at her with a pleading gaze, "It's the only way." Eileen shook her head in exasperation, "Fine, let's go." Kevin boosted Eileen up through the hole and then grabbed the edge of a broken shingle and pulled himself up with her help. "Now what?" Eileen asked. Before Kevin could answer, a wave of bats poured out of the hole and flew straight for them. Kevin reached for his shotgun before realizing that he had left it back in the house. Eileen turned with a grim stare and fired the shotgun. The bullets spread out, blasting through the tiny bats, leaving a much smaller force that still flew toward them. "Let's go!" Kevin shouted. "Where?" Kevin looked around, noting a tree with branches that stretched onto the roof, as well as a vines climbing along one side of the wall. Before he could make a decision, there was a loud thud and the familiar crunching of claws on shingles. They both turned to see the vampire stalking toward them, his wounds still bleeding but not slowing him down. [i]Should they: 1. Escape via the tree? 2. Climb down the vines? 3. Fight the vampire on the roof?[/i]

  • "What is it?" Eileen asked. "A distraction," Kevin replied. "I'll draw him upstairs and then you come up from behind. Heck, one shotgun blast might take him out anyway." Eileen stared at him for a moment and then said, "Are you crazy?" "What?" "You want to just rush out there and shoot at him, hoping he doesn't kill you?" Kevin shrugged, "Sure...I mean that's what we've been doing so far isn't it?" Eileen rolled her eyes, "Well if this is your plan, then I'm go--" "Nope," Kevin replied. "Wait here." Before Eileen could stop him, Kevin slipped out through the door and shut it behind him. Kevin looked around, surprised once again to find the immediate area empty. His nose, however, told him the vampire was close. He sniffed several times, trying to sort the odor of dead bodies and sickly sweet fruit from that of the vampire. A growl from behind was the only warning Kevin received before a clawed hand grabbed him by the shoulder, tearing his shirt and drawing deep gashes in his skin. The vampire hurled Kevin across the room straight into a wooden table that snapped under his weight. Kevin groaned and tried to focus. When he finally did, he wished he hadn't. The vampire was walking toward him, its eyes pure white. But that wasn't what terrified Kevin. The creature was immense, standing at nearly ten feet tall. Dark, leathery wings protruded from its back and long muscular, but furry arms stretched out toward him, the clawed hands dripping with the blood from Kevin's shoulder. The creature's face had almost no human features whatsoever. It looked like a bat's face, with the grotesque, upturned nose, long ears and fangs instead of teeth. Kevin lifted his shotgun to fire but the vampire, sensing the danger, suddenly launched into the air, flapping its wings several times before it landed on the balcony above, just out of Kevin's line of sight. Kevin slowly staggered to his feet and yelled to Eileen who had just poked her head out, "Not yet!" He moved toward the stairs then froze when a shadow crossed over the floor. At the last moment, Kevin dove forward, barely dodging the vampire's aerial attack. He tucked his body into a roll and twisted around as he came up, leveling the shot gun and firing. The vampire let out a primal screech that dropped Kevin to the ground, clutching his ears. He looked up in time to see the vampire clutch its bloody arm before grabbing his shotgun again. The vampire noticed the movement, and with another roar rushed forward, faster than Kevin could fathom, and knocked his gun aside, then grabbed Kevin with its good arm and quickly jumped into the air, flying straight to the ceiling above the balcony. Kevin kicked his knee into the creature's groin several times, causing the vampire to grunt in pain but not loosen its grip. The vampire opened its mouth wide and brought it down on Kevin's neck and was about to rip his jugular out when it suddenly jerked back and howled in pain, dropping Kevin and flapping away. Kevin was jarred from the impact and shook his head as Eileen helped him to his feet. "Nice distraction," she muttered dryly. "Thanks," Kevin replied, "Is he dead?" "No," Eileen said, "I hit him in the side...but he's still moving. This thing is powerful." Kevin looked past Eileen and his eyes widened, "That's not the only problem." Eileen turned to see the infected vampires rushing up the stairs, a rage in their eyes. "Looks like the vampire called for back up," Kevin muttered. [i]Should they: 1. Escape through the hole in the roof? 2. Blast their way to the car?[/i]
