Escape From Zombie Park Island 2

[Florien]

The Clonelands, who'd been largely silent throughout this time but definitely there, finally react to Blaine's Betrayal.

Oh, Australia is all criminals, we never should have trusted one of them.

Wait, Mr. Alpotophis... we do have that defense cannon we installed when the doctor wasn't looking on the first day.

It's just over there. That's among our resources.

They indicate the huge coastal defense cannon, made for taking out ships... which is inland and can't even aim at the ocean from where it is. It sits proudly, with sufficient munitions to cause a problem for any battleships that are on the land for whatever reason.

Oh, and we've been bitten. Yes. A tragic turn of events.

But while we still aren't tearing out your lungs yet...

We should think about our options here.

The US Army is here, but we can't communicate with them, because we don't have a telegraph or a semaphore.

If we could run a messenger through the blockade... we might be able to make it.

We could Veto the concept of the blockade outside. That could work.

There's many options, few of them good or reliable.

Charles, who was nearby, overheard the Clonelands speak of the US government and says to them: "Wait, the government's here? About time - I was wondering where they were. Since I work for them, I can easily walk up without any problems coming up, so why don't you let me handle the Government?"

[PointMaid]

...Can you promise me I won't get in trouble for my experiments? My first priority is protecting the park -- which does not mean bombing it back to the stone age, by the way -- but there's a reason I'm out here on an unclaimed island in International waters.

[PointMaid]

It is now NIGHT PHASE.

DAY 5

Frankie has just finished putting up a hearty breakfast for everyone to be fortified for the day ahead... oh, and she's atop the wall getting a good look at Victoria's people.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Blaine still stands with Victoria, and happens to look at Frankie right in the eye, looking like he's ready to pounce.

[KungFuCutbug]

[XCOPY wearily emerges from his cabin, rubbing his forehead with a pained facial expression as he hasn't quite 100% recovered from yesterday yet. His tiredness and aches notwithstanding, he still remains just as enthusiastic as ever.] "Morning!!"

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Alpotophis wakes up, looking like shit from the past day. Uggh...my head. What are we doing now? Also, good morning to you too.

[Zanreo]

Rom and Ram wake up, and go to get some breakfast.

[PointMaid]

Day 5 Challenge

Good morning... I'm glad you've gotten your sleep. You're going to need it. We should check that everyone is all right after yesterday, I think? But, also after yesterday, I do need your help with a plan.

Frankie goes to the wall overlooking where Victoria, Blaine, and the Lawyer Army are camped to survey the situation. There is a commotion in the camp – she's pretty sure she knows what has happened. Some of Victoria's people have been infected.

Well, now they are going to need a plan of action. But this… well, this changes things a little. Frankie again has some ideas, but she needs your creativity to figure out the best angle of attack.

1. Figure out how to get Victoria's people away from the gates. You want to launch an offensive, but you'll have to get out there first.

2. Decide on or make some appropriate weaponry to use against them – zombie or not.

3. How to deal with their zombie contingent without getting infected yourselves?

4. Go into attack mode, Battle plan: turn the tide even though you still have fewer numbers and try to force them to turn around and leave the island.

Please PM your plans. You have 48 hours this time.

[KungFuCutbug]

"I'm alright! Mostly! ...Alright enough to function, anyway! Still got a headache, but what can you do?!"

[As for the others...] > do a quick head count

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

You ready to give it up yet, Frankie?

[PointMaid]

Not even close, Blaine! I stand for something. I don't just give in when it's in my financial interest, or appears to be.

[PointMaid]

X: > do a quick head count

...You're having a hard time counting heads

[KungFuCutbug]

[Fuck. Now's not the time to forget which number comes after 2, X.]

> do a thorough head count

[Zanreo]

> head count

[PointMaid]

> Head counts

You find you are indeed missing... two people.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Oh, Frankie, Frankie, Frankie, so naive, you are. It's money that makes the world go around! Find a little somethin' you're good at and make money off it. You see, back in Australia, I worked for a whole buncha people. Hired me to kill animals for them, for clothes, rugs, certain medicines, whatever. Somethin' I got damn good at. And can be quite dangerous work too, let me tell ya. See this eye? Lost it after a stingray puts its barb right through it. Almost died, ya know. But then Victoria came Down Under and offered me a great payday to come find you and bring you and the island to her attention. Wasn't easy and all, especially dealing with all these idiots who can't tell a zombie from a hole in the ground. But it doesn't matter. At the end of this all, I'll be laughin' all the way to the bank. You really are a real sucker, Doctor.

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Alpotophis looks around.

>search the camp for said two missing people

[PointMaid]

She really doesn't know how the world works, does she, Blaine? Just can't bear to grasp the reality.

Reality? You don't even know how yourselves work. That's the kind of reality I'm interested in. How we work, how the environment works, what we need to keep from turning OURSELVES into an endangered species! It was never about money, because that's not what I care about. What kind of legacy are YOU going to leave, hmm?

[PointMaid]

Alpotophis: >search the camp for said two missing people

They're right in front of you. How come you didn't see it before? They're right in the middle of camp. It's the Clonelands, and they're dead.

[Mr. Lee Hammer]

Meh, who cares about legacy? I'm just happy to live comfortably the rest of my life. Don't have to worry about eatin' shit anymore. She really is a deluded Shelia, Victoria. Sorry you had her in your family.

[Cassie]

"NO! Not the Clonelands!"

"Youch...we've trusted those two the most throughout all this..."

> BRUISE CHECK

[MadameButterflyKnife]

Alpotophis begins to freak out. Oh shit. Oh shit. Two more dead people, what the fuck?! What the-what the HELL? This..holy christ did this happen when we were asleep? Wh-

>how did they die?

[KungFuCutbug]

ARE YOU FUCKING SERIOUS. "Wh—?! Grover?! Grover?! FUUUCK, why those two?!"

> investigate the corpses for wounds/cause of death/whatever
