The Aftermath

[The Jiggler]

The Aftermath 

Day #001: Over the radio today, they announced that Armageddon was nigh. Thankfully, I'd been preparing for it to hit the fan. We took the bus to our bug-out location. We've been listening to the radio for more information about the situation. An emergency broadcast signal was the only thing that we could hear. Being repeated over, and over, and over again. Jesse's crying, I better go comfort her before she becomes too annoying. 


Day #002: We heard something outside today... gunshots and then a body dropping  to the ground like a bag of potatoes. I told the kids to be quiet as they walked over the hatch. Finally, the footsteps became fainter and fainter in the distance as they trailed off. Thank God  whoever is looking out for us now. 

Day #003: We finally got something from the radio, it says that the world is polluted with nuclear fallout. Will we ever return to the surface? 


Day #123: It's Jack's birthday today, he's turning 14! They also said that the nuclear fallout is starting to be lowered. What a great day! 

Day #130: The world's anew... although, I feel guilt as I had to kill my family for supplies. I'm all alone now... 

(Sorry for those who hate Comic Sans, it's just more believable how someone would write in real life.)

Story: 

In 2015, a group of hackers injected a virus into computers controlling nuclear power-plants across largely nuclear-based countries like the U.S.A., Japan, and Russia, it took a major toll on the  The atmosphere supposedly was full of toxins and air-sterilizing dust-masks were handed out to people close to military bases. It took almost a third of a year for the radiation to subside enough for the surface to become inhabitable again. But without large governmental powers, people became greedy and power-hungry. They started overthrowing cities, attacking caravans with pharmaceutical drugs, guns, and food inside of them, creating bandit-gangs, rioting, and every other crime known to the lawbook. When you lived in the "Hood" back in the Urban Times, you thought that was bad? Now, innocent elders are getting their houses broken into and murdered or raped for their materials. 

You're someone living in this post-apocalyptic version of Earth, what will you do? Become a cold-hearted criminal, or a vigilante trying to bring order back into the world? You decide. It's your fate after all.

The world is still the real Earth, although it's just in ruin. You can start wherever you want. 
Your occupation is irrelevant in this scenario, but it will provide charismatic traits that may help you organize a group of survivors or a gang. 
You have a small firearm providing swiftness and accuracy, along with your three magazines. 
Your backpack will help you carry more things and help cushion your shoulders with it's padding lining the straps.
You have a supply of food that will last you a night, same with water. You'll have to forage or scavenge for more food and drink. 
Your flashlight will come in handy at night or when in a dark place. It's good to have a spare set of batteries for trading, or to keep your flashlight alive. 
You've shown promise and are accepted.

Alright. Let's say I'm in... Uhn... I really don't know where should I start. Can you choose a place for me? I want somewhere on the UK or the US. Maybe even Brazil though.

You start in the state of Missouri, in the Mark Twain National Forest. You managed to find a small wooden cottage with a water-well outside and an old pickup truck. Although, there's no fuel in it and you haven't been able to find any jerrycans with fuel in them. 

[Piment]

I sneak inside the cottage, trying to find supplies.

You'll have to ask Pim about that. 
Your dark-colored clothing will provide somewhat camouflage at night.
Your experience as a park ranger will help you forage for food as you can collect non-poisonous wild food. 
Your love for wildlife and nature will allow you to easily domesticate a certain range of animals. 
Although, you don't have any ammunition for your firearm. 
Aleksandar, accepted.

[Piment]

I'd like him near me.

[The Jiggler]

You awake inside your sleeping bag. You squirm out like a butterfly from its cocoon. A small campfire crackles as the embers continue to die down from your previous night's fire. 

[Deleted]

I extinguish the fire and pack my sleeping back into my pack before heading out forage the woodlands for berries and nuts. I also take to exploring the area, since I've no knowledge of the land.
