Joe Greasy's Hoff bar, Abercrombie River National Park, Australia


Afternoon in the Australian wilderness is peaceful. I hunt down wild animals in the forest, while Sheva and the Sniper run the army bunker as a mess hall for the park rangers.

Today is such a day. After bagging a deer, I decided to visit the Sniper's abode: a camping van located on a hill that overlooks the dry plain of the Park.

"Anything interesting?" I asked the Sniper, who was sipping on the weird black drink called Coffee.
"I see someone eating a kangaroo." The Sniper responded, and I looked through the telescope. There was indeed a man with an eyepatch eating what's left of a kangaroo.
"You think that's one of the Neos?" I inquired the Sniper.
"I don't know." The Sniper groaned while scoping. "But I'm thinking of turning him into colored rain."

Somewhere in Nevada


"I'm still expecting you to pay for the damages." Sanford said to John.

"Okay, if you want to know, i'll explain how this all started." Deimos started, getting a fresh cigarette.

"It all started with the man you found, Hank J. Wimbleton. Before this started, he was a freelance assassin, taking whatever jobs that came by and executing them with deadly proficiency. Then came a day where he got the job to kill the man only known as the Sheriff. The Sheriff was the head of the all of the gangs around Nevada, and he earned that name by taking out almost any semblance of law and declaring himself governor, and no one could stop him. Hank took that job, and almost took him down the first time around. But he was killed by Jesus Christ, or at least the equivalent of him, with his halo and facial hair matching up, along with Tricky, who was not a zombie at this point in time.

Then, after he died, a force we call the Higher Powers revived him. He went after the Sheriff again, and the Sheriff activated the first improbability drive. Hank was pushed into a town from a cut in half room by Tricky, who Hank then killed with the sign Tricky now uses. Then, comes the insanity of it. The damn sun gre a body and tried to kill Hank, but was killed, and thus the sun has been gone ever since. Tricky was revived by an unknown force into a zombie like form, which was killed by Hank again. Hank got to the sheriff, but was gutted by Jesus with his sword. He then charged forward with the sword still in him, killing the Sheriff, then going backwards and killing Jesus, then he died from blood loss. Shall I continue?" Deimos took a sip from a water bottle.




Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

"So basically, Hank's a zombie too.", John said in a deadpan tone.

John then turned to Sanford.

"Here's money for the damages."

John have him a large amount of money, it looked to be enough for all the damages.

(I'm gonna be broke by the end of this crap.)

John then turned to Shikieiki and her group.

"Shikieiki, I'm planning on going to Makai with the rest of the group. Everyone's welcome to join us, but I need an answer."

"Well, no, he's not. Whoever revived Tricky made him a zombie on purpose. Hank's as alive as you or me." Deimos explained.

Sanford looked at the money in his hands. "That will do."

"Just as I thought." EVE beeped. "That thing inside Nitori's wound, eating up all the platelets, is the same energy that Zero had when he was frenzied. In this case, I can easily extract it from her, but with this bad of the wound's progression, Nitori is going to need at least a week before she can do anything dangerous."

Zero scowls at what he hears and begins to walk off with a look of anger on his face. "Then extract it and destroy it as soon as possible. EVE scan your systems after you do so as well. Call me when your done extracting it from her." He said as he leaves the room.

Otori paused. "... no. I've heard all I needed to hear. Oh, and John, I will allow Shikieiki and Komachi to go to Makai with you. I'll not be going though. I still have to find a way to control the Improbability Drive somehow in order to do what I intended to do: send everyone back to where they came from. Shikieiki, would you like to go with John? Go to Makai and meet everyone else in the resistance. I'll teleport to you using the Improbability Drive once this is all over."

I thought long and hard. "But... what about you?"

"I'm only a human, therefore I cannot protect you from this type of danger, as in characters working against us. But once I retrieve the Improbability Drive, I can help every one. Including you. I'm sorry, but you have to go. The Improbability Drive that Tricky possesses will be a huge disadvantage, but I sure as hell can fight and handle a gun."

I couldn't allow this. But... he did have a point. "... okay. John, I'm coming with you."

"I promise to be back soon, Shiki. John, please take care of her."

I turned towards John. "Komachi... let's go. We have a world to save."

Otori smiled. "Otori... don't get yourself killed. I will send you to hell if I find out you died doing something stupid."

"Don't worry about it. And plus, in a world like this, I can die over and over again... I hope."

I laughed a bit. "Okay... well... see ya."

I walked over towards John again.

Somewhere in the Middle of the Freaking Desert of Australia Somehow (Said in snake's perspective)


I finished up with the last of my kangaroo. "Ah.. pretty tasty..."

I looked up to see a vehicle. I saw who was in it... It was an armed group. I couldn't take any precautions. I readied my RPG-7. I seem to be well stocked for whatever mission I was sent on, so it couldn't be any allies driving my way. I don't remember ever needing back-up. I was always a soloist.

I aimed the rocket at the tires, then I thought about how I could steal their vehicle to get out of here. I put away my RPG-7 and replaced it with an EMP wave grenade. The car seemed to be running crazy. I readied my AK-47 so that I can hold the enemies up. I waited for them to fall out. I hid behind my kangaroo carcass.

"Hey, Rengar, how you've been?" That's Nick, a park ranger that frequents the grub shop. He's amiable, soft-spoken, and responsible. He sometimes brings other, more stone-faced rangers, but this time he was alone. "Caught anything?"
"I bagged a deer with particularly edgy horns. Another piece for my collection." I responded. I stuffed the horn in my den, a small cave right behind the bunker. It has a quaint feel, but I truly relax in there, toying with all my trophies.
"I would love to see your collection some day." Nick laughed. He was a good guy, if not too good.
"By the way, what's with that guy eating a kangaroo by the plains?" I asked Nick.
"I don't know. I tried confronting him, but he shoo'd me away. Maybe just another hunter, like you." Nick responded. Kangaroo meat isn't too bad, just a bit stretchy around the thighs.
"Ya think it's a Neo?" Sheva asked while washing the dishes. We refer to the Neo-Yakuza Character agents as "Neos" for convenient sake.
"Definitely not." Nick chuckled. "Me and my mates work overtime to keep you safe."
"You have my thanks." Nick is a good guy. He really is. "I'll go for some dry one."

"That bloody bogin!" I heard Sniper enter the grub shop in a fit of rage.
"What's wrong?" Nick asked.
"That rocket-slinging wanker tried to bust my crib into pieces." Sniper spat. "Neo or not, when I see him again, I'm gunning for that mongrel!"
"Take it easy, Sniper." Sheva smiled. She was definitely the one keeping the team together. "Care for more coffee?"
"Appreciate it." There was he, the ordinary, silent Sniper, once again.
