Zombie Story: Threads of a Tire

'If you can't carry it what makes you think I can? What else you got?'

'I'll take the pistols. Now give.'

She holds out her hand.

=hands them over=

now only got 2 left

She puts the rifle on the counter with some ammo but without the scope.

'Here you go.'

=takes it and heads to the street=


this could work


=starts dismantliing the anzio and taking the usefull parts and putting them on the as50=


now what to do with the rest i don't need

She looks at the second person who walked in.

'Which rifle do you want?'

=heads back to the workshop=


i'd like to trade in these parts

(Raul)
He had been trying to wake up the man asleep against the wall. No luck. He looks at the person from before.

'Trade them in for what?'

=I walk up to the counter and put up my SL8=

What can I get for this?

(Gun shop lady)
'Depends on what you want.'

She looks at him.

'What is you want?'

(Raul)
He shakes his head.

'Sorry, don't have the components. Anything else?'

=I put my hands on the counter=

Depends what you got.

(GSL)
'I have a few rifles, a shotgun, and two handguns. And get your hands off my counter.'

(Raul)
'Whats?'

=I keep my hands on the counter=

Can I see them?

(GSL)
'If you were to take your hands off my counter, you could see them.'

(Rich and Ellie)

=The house, for the most part, was finished=
=We look in awe at our work=

Rich-We'll finish it off tomorrow.

Ellie-Yeah =I yawn= Kinda sleepy...

Rich-Aint nothin fancy. Jus' the way I like it.

=They enter and go off to their seperate "rooms"=
=Bo. Sleeping in the "Living Room" as a gaurd=


=The man stops off on a highway=
=Shutting off the truck and heading to the rear seats=
=He lays out a blanket and a pillow against the opposite door=

=He looks around one last time=
=Firing his silenced 9mm into a nearby Zed=
=He crawls into the truck and falls asleep=

=I smile under the baklava and retract my hands=

(GSL)
'Now, if you are done oogling my wares, out. I need to sleep.'

She hands him his rifle and pushes him out the door, locking it behind him.

(Raul)
I think for a moment.

'I don't think I have any sword, I could check. I know I have a hand axe. Got that in just the other day. Would that work? Save me some time and effort.'

=about three quarters of the way to Kinsale=

(Raul)
He shrugs.

"Like I said. I might, I'm not sure, I'd have to check. You sure you don't want a hand axe? They are lighter and easier to use. Not to mention more effective."

(Raul)
'Okay, I'll take a look for ya.'

He shambles off into the back of the workshop. He starts rumaging through some boxes and a rack of and tools. He calls out from the back of the store.

'Nope, sorry. Not finding anything that matches a sword. I got a warhammer though, not really sure where that came from, though...'

(Raul)
He walks back to the front of the store.

'Not unless you count some derp up North a long ways who is convinced that the mall is the perfect place to find weapons.

(Raul)
He laughs.

'You're in it, sonny. Or at least close to it. We built this up along the wall they put up to keep the Zeds out. Technically, we are all Travelers, we just stay in one spot.'

(Raul)
'Good luck. They don' let anyone in. Not unless you are part of a Traveler Caravan, in which case you can. Either eay, it's on the other sidd of the wall.'

=starts heading to the wall=


they better let me in

=I wake up, and stand up. I walk over to the counter and ring the bell.=

(Raul)
He comes out of the back again
''Bout time you woke up. Whatchu want?'

=I hand him some ammo off of my new rifle.=

You have any of this ammo?

He nods.

'Yeap, what kind of things are you going to give me in return?'

Will three frag grenades do?

'Sure.'

He puts a small case full of ammo on the counter.

'Here you go.'

=I put the frag grenades on the counter, and take the ammo.=

Nice do buisness with you.

He nods.

'Same here my friend.'

He takes the grenades and puts them away under the counter.


(Myself)
I went back to my house with a load of groceries. It cost me a good chunk of ammo, and now I have to do some errands for the grocery, but it was worth it. I got food again.

= the R604 met the R600, took that down the rest of the way to Kinsale. Crossed the bridge, passed some shambling zombies. They were to busy chasing someone, or something, couldn't tell in the rain. Drove down The Worlds End until it turned into Pier Road, into the harbor. I was expecting tons of Zombies. Some Cruise Ships were still in the Kinsale Harbor Cruises port. Started Exploring Kinsale =

=I start to head for the Landbridge with my SL8=

=He had awoken a few hours before the sun had showed its face over the horizon=
=It is now light out. A faint smell of ash in the air=
=He had passed town after town=
=Finding some supplies and fuel in one=
=Nothing for two towns=

=Burning buildings, Zeds, people that would want to kill you if they saw you=
=He chuckled, comparing some things to Fallout: New Vegas and some things only you could see to believe=

=The sun was high, bright, filling every nonshaded area with heat=

A perfect day...

=As he said that a Zed stumbled into the Jeeps path=
=Running it over=

...turned even better

I put the groceries away and lied down on the couch for a nap.

"Naps are okay...I think..."

=The Elites have Speed-Constructed a Wall of wood, used from trees brought in (over time) from the surrounding areas and farther inland of ireland, the Wall Spans across the Width of the Land bridge, It is 7 Meters thick and 6 meters tall. Its made of Logs and '2 by 4s', There is a Gap in the center where the 'entrance' is. It is connected by a flat roof, Some of the logs go farther out over the edge of the sheer cliffs on either side of the land bridge=

Q: Why is it seven meters thick and 6 meters tall?
A: Part of the Wall is off the edge of both sides of the land-bridge, this means that gravity will want to pull it down, In order to prevent the wall, both sides, from falling off the Landbridge Sufficient mass would be needed in the center of the 'focal' point, this means that the part of the wall that is still on the Land bridge needs to have enough mass to counteract the gravitational pull of the the outside [wall] (if you took physics, you would understand more).


This has been in construction since before the arrival of most of the 'members' of the safe area, this includes the following characters, the name of the User is listed: Anog, Zeru, Garth, Alex(he's somewhere in France) Senox, Dakotah, Xazhi, (basically everyone currently posting in the RP) the Term "Speed constructed" was used because It was never mentioned earlier in the RP so it is a quick and sloppy way of saying it was finished

(Rich and Ellie)

=We got up early=
=Wantin hard to finish up the house=
=We did more playin around than we wanted to=
=However we had managed to get the work, some anyway, done=

=I see the construction and stand in the open, looking at it=

I woke up from my nap and decided to go pay the siblings a visit. I got up, got on my knives and my .22 rifle, and went over to their house. I knock on the door.

"Hey, you awake?"
