Escape from Zombie Park Island

[madface7]

Demo is crying.

He points to Frankie. "Ya knoo what you are, Doctor Crazy-stein? Yer a bloodeh devil!  A DEVIL!" He burps. "Why the hell did ya think it was a good idea ta revive the dead? Tha's bloodeh playin' God! At this point, it don't matter if you've become a zoombeh. Ye got no mind ta begin with!"

[PointMaid]

Frankie may put on an unshakable face, but she's heard every single criticism that's been hurled against her for the past five days. She tries not to react, but, behind the pages of The Island of Doctor Moreau, she's having a hard time keeping it together, herself.

[Dookie]

Elizabeth just stares at what happens.

“Well...only one day left...”

[KungFuCutbug]

[Pico slowly walks over to Skiggs as he breaks down crying and pats him on the back.] “Don't worry, man. You're one of the strongest motherfuckers I've ever seen. I'm confident that you'll be able to fuckin’ kick that damn virus in the ass. But...” [He momentarily looks away, pensive, before turning back to Skiggs again.] “...But if worse comes to worst, I'm not gonna forget the person you were before all this bullshit. I can only hope the Doc'll have some fuckin’ mercy on you if that happens... Knowin’ her, that's just fuckin’ wishful thinkin’... Crazy-ass bitch... But it hasn't fuckin’ happened yet. So cross your fingers, and don't lose hope, alright?”

“We'll still lock you up with the other fuckin’ potential zombies, if that's what you really fuckin’ want. Percival and that Akatsuki bitch, were they? We'll put you three somewhere you can't fuckin’ escape, then check in the mornin’ to see if anyone else fuckin’ died. Looks like William's most inclined to fuckin’ heal you, anyway, so as long as the goddamn zombies don't get to him before he can heal you...”

[His voice trails off.]

[artsyGeek]

...oh crap. She got bitten.

Percy tries to calm down, although she's quite visibly panicking internally. This isn't good.

Percy looked at Akki/Madarame, then at...

Oh.

Skiggs too?!

That guy.. He was trustworthy. Even if it's to just one person, he was still trustworthy.

She looked at the others, before speaking up. "I would also like to be secluded, in case one of the people who got bitten kills a fellow bitten. I'm not afraid to take that risk."

She looked at William. "I'm just a normal trainee, unfortunately. Help someone else up if you want. I'm honestly not that useful in investigations."

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Skiggs starts to gain a little bit of composure, but he's still not too far off from having another breakdown.

Thanks, man..... your words really mean a lot to me. And yes, go ahead, lock me up. Rather be caged up like a fucking animal than to become some bear that mauls a poor soul to death.

[Florien]

I... I know what must be done. I cannot protect everyone at once. So I must choose one. I apologize in advance to you, Percy, and to those other two who's names are... evasive to me. Skiggs will survive the night, unless one of you turns and strikes him down. I'll make sure of it. I pray you will have enough of yourself left, should you turn, to recognize that striking me down would be a terrible error. Skiggs may walk free, for another night. I choose to heal Skiggs. If someone should perish the next night, it is either that pair, or Percy.

[KungFuCutbug]

[Pico looks at WJB for a moment, then turns back to Skiggs.] “See? You'll be fine, I fuckin’ swear. And then we've only got, what, one? Two more goddamn days? And then we can fuckin’... get out of here, you're gonna be alright, you're gonna be alright...”

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

I appreciate that. God bless you.

[KungFuCutbug]

“And by the way, Skiggs,” [Pico says as he turns to go to his dormitory,] “you keep the gun. Consider it a token of my respect. Just... don't fuckin’ hurt yourself with it.”

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

I won't.... and Pico..... thank you.... for everything, he says with a warm smile, feeling a bit of hope for the first time since God knows when, before heading back to his dorm.

[PointMaid]

NIGHT HAS FALLEN

Expect day to break at approximately 11:00am tomorrow, if all necessary information has been exchanged.

[PointMaid]

DAY PHASE HAS BEGUN

Dr. Frankie is again setting out a breakfast buffet. This time there's smoked salmon and lox with bagels and cream cheese, croissants, and various other things for a continental breakfast. Coffee, of course. And Frankie, as usual, has a mimosa in her hand.

[Dookie]

Elizabeth, for once, is the first to get up.

The first thing she goes for is the salmon with bagels and cream cheese. Yum.

[artsyGeek]

Percy wakes up as well. She walks to where the breakfast buffet is located, and grabs a croissant.

[KungFuCutbug]

[Pico gets up a lot earlier than usual. It's... probably weird to see him not toting around the gun, but he doesn't care. He's fucking starving. Apparently sleeping late for the past week and missing breakfast every day was finally catching up to him. He quickly snatches some salmon and a couple of bagels with cream cheese before heading to a table.] “[yawn] Mornin’, fuckers...”

[MadeOfMilk]

Isaac stumbles out.

M-mornin' he yawns

[Guma]

Yawneth . . . no, still not dead.

[Florien]

I yet live... by some miracle. Perhaps no one was harmed last night?

>Check for bodies

[PointMaid]

> Check for bodies: 5

There are no dead bodies.

[Florien]

Luck may be with us, today, perhaps? Maybe no one was turned! I hope that is the case, at least... No more deaths. No more, I pray.

William falls to his knees in prayer, his cross of gold falling sideways onto the ground.

[PointMaid]

Challenge 6

Look,I know you're not happy with how I'm running my operation. But it's your last night here if you wish, if you don't sign on, you can go home and go back to your lives. I hope… thing is, the boat isn't coming to this beach. It's going to dock all the way over at the western boat launch. But my bus is broken down and the spare parts are in a shed in the mountains! If you want any hope of you all reaching the Western Boat Launch tomorrow before the boat leaves, I'm going to need you to:

1. Find an alternate mode of transportation that can get you up to the Mountain Statiion. Build it if you must.
2. Get past the Smilodon near Inland Station
3. Safely find your way past the Giant Ground Sloths near Rainforest Station
4. Not become bear-food for the Short Faced Bears near Mountain Statin, while you retrieve the bus parts

Please just get safely past my animals, don't hurt them! I must insist on that.

[MadeOfMilk]

1. Build a foot-powered cart out of wood. Bring some MEAT! to distract any carnivorous creatures.
2. Throw the MEAT! at the Smilodon.
3. Swerve, duck, and Naruto run the cart beneath the sloths... while being silent, of course, and not in their line of sight.
4. Throw some more MEAT! to distract the bears.

[Florien]

I must escape this place. Freedom is near. Freedom.

Step One: Trust in the power of extreme Athleticism to be enough to get to the mountain and up it and back again.

Step Two: Distract the Smilodon with a laser pointer.

Step Three: Make an arduous trek around the giant ground sloth area, so as not to face them at all.

Step Four: The bears may be enormous, but they are American bears. William Jennings Bryan breaks with his isolationist policies just for a moment, and invokes the Monroe Doctrine to intimidate the bears with the might of the US Army, and gets past them that way.

[madface7]

1. Pull out your secret weapon; the Sticky Jumper! Blast yourself into the air taking no damage at all, and air-strafe to your destination.
2. Sticky jump over the Smilodon.
3. And sticky jump once more...
4. Wow, just spam that sticky jumper. Too bad it can't kill zombies, because it does no damage...
