:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - [[Ridleybank Resistance Front]]. They finally moved into [[Shackleville]].. I assume from [[Tollyton]] based on a previous report I somehow forgot about -- but [[Tollyton]] seems safe enough for the moment. Will have to investigate more with the development...


:[[Raymond Building]] is without power.. As for the condition of the building, I'm not sure.. the barricades are lower and there's not a ton circling it. I managed to revivify a survivor taken down by the horde, but they're everywhere. They even hit the museum... This is a replay of [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] all over again.. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 20:05, 25 April 2011 (BST)

<center>'''December 2011'''</center>
-------


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Knew it was too good to be true.. [[Swithun General Hospital]] is in ruins, a horde of almost 30 zeds ..slaughtering the many, many survivors and demolishing the building. I still don't know who they're with, but they aren't feral. Not in these numbers.
:'''Fae Sidhe: 19:12, 16 December 2011 (UTC)''' - SE-2 SE Quad is repaired fully and operational. I requested information about Riddick, but.... nothing. I am wondering if he went to Ft. Perryn. I checked the malls and the Collis Tower complex in the area. I don't want to think he's still zed and out there some where. It doesn't make sense though. He shares the same dislike for zed I do.


:I was in the [[Raymond Building]] talking to Echo when the report came in. His brow furrowed. I smiled and assured him it was probably a false alarm, knowing full well it was the first big movement in the suburb in some time by zed. It was probably just ferals. Yes.. just ferals. I don't think he believed me. He told me to be careful.
:Maybe he just thought it time to move on. Either way, I carry a syringe on me just in case I find him. ...


:I ducked in and played triage, but I'm no doctor. Shot a few, but the numbers were just overwhelming... By the time I got there, most were dead. What would be the next stop? [[Raymond Building]], I imagine.. so I swooped back in and picked up a few reviv syringes and ducked over into a non-tactical building.  I watched the lights go out on [[Raymond Building]] soon after. My link to Echo is severed here I realized as the windows suddenly went dark. The 'cades are still high, but for how long? --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 22:25, 24 April 2011 (BST)
:... I'm getting pathetic.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - It's been relatively quiet 'cept for the zed suiciders. By that, I mean the dead zed that don't mind dying over and over to try and take a building full of survivors. Ferals with death wishes -- well, if they weren't already dead, right? What is a zed with a death wish called, I wonder?
:'''Fae Sidhe: 19:41, 15 December 2011 (UTC)''' - SE-2 SE Quad is repaired... I am eternally grateful for The Future at the moment, who just returned from the Ft. Perryn fight... even if I had one giving me an order like I was of their ranks.  I am considering applying though. For now, I am SE-2 SE Quad exclusively.


:Got some idiots cading over the Barricade policy for [[Shackleville]]. I took down the 'cade at [[Clarkson Lane Fire Station|Clarkson Lane]] to it's actual barricade level which allows access to [[Swithun General Hospital]] and the [[Raymond Building]]. Fear makes people stupid. Cut off your entry points.. you cut off a lot of your exit points too. Make it hard for them to enter, but not impossible for you to leave.
: All the buildings are back up and lit. Zed activity is minimal. I have yet to locate Riddick. I wonder what happened to him. I've put in an inquiry with deecay, of The Future. If all else fails, I can try to put out a bulletin, I guess.


:Speaking of [[Raymond Building]], I stopped off in there and had a talk with Echo. First time I have managed a smile since I found a group of [[The Fortress]]. They didn't actually belong to one of the four teams, but they were a commune group which is still just as good for me.
:'''Fae Sidhe: 20:18, 7 December 2011 (UTC)''' - Bad Zed. Bad Zed. Need a fuckin' spray bottle. Bad Zed. Nine Zed in the area, five showing known open hostility. I'm sure the others will soon too as they're new arrivals.


:[[Swaffield Plaza]], where I revivified for my first time after being infected, is where I now keep watch. Apparently it is a revive point officially.. With the help of Echo, I revived my first and second Zed today. It is not easy, especially alone. Even though this is regarded as a safety zone, I still don't know what zed will turn around and try and bite my arm off. Tricky business, but all has gone well so far... I think I might have found a purpose.
:Went back to the Arms... They ruined it. Killed them all. Nothing I could do at that point. Barely made it out myself -- infected again. Handled it, but... Riddick. I went back to look for him... Looked among the mob. Nothing. Not at Errington... nothing. He should know I'd come find him. Needs to stay close by or near Rayfield...


:A wild idea also hit me just now.. but if we can revive the people that want to be revived.. would not reviving the leaders of the zed forces, at least for a while, throw their ranks slightly into disorganization? A reverse assassination? --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 19:24, 23 April 2011 (BST)
:'''Fae Sidhe: 19:09, 4 December 2011 (UTC)''' - ''Page is covered in blood splatters, fingerprints'' - Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Three zed took out the auto repair.. I killed them, rebuilt, re-caded.. refueled the quad.. went back for more fuel... Zed breath still smells like rotting meat, har. har. 


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Success. I located a commune group of [[The Fortress]] assigned to [[Shackleville]] on the far east end, near [[Tollyton]]. It only took a little over a month, but it's nice to see representation of organized groups. Knowing they are in [[Shackleville]] now, I think I will begin the process of applying.  
:Had enough supplies on me to stop the infection. Think I feel about as bad as I look... A survivor I'd never seen before killed a Zed that retook the auto center. I guess I looked bad enough he thought I was already dead. I guess I should be thankful he didn't just put a bullet in my skull. The distraction gave me enough time to get away safely. Lost that battle, I imagine my brother would say.


:I've been listening to broadcasts out of [[Kempsterbank]] -- Kbank as they've been calling it.  The fan fare at the closing makes me smile. Jilliard rose and fell and rose again.. but that's common for a Necrotech in an area like [[Kempsterbank]]. I'm surprised the [[Raymond Building]] isn't attacked more often in [[Shackleville]]. Probably location has something to do with it. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 00:23, 22 April 2011 (BST)
:Think Riddick is mad at me. He used to find me in the quad if I wandered too far off. Now he just stays in The Arms, silent. Sleeping. Came in and spoke to him other night. Realized he was sleeping after getting no response after a minute or so.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Got a bit zed shooting happy. I finished one off that was already way past gone when I crossed the border into [[Shackleville]]. Is it a mercy killing? Continuing to [[Tollyton]]... Plan to stop over in the [[Raymond Building]] before hand to check in with Echo. It's been.. three or four days. I begin to lose track of days when I'm out.. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 15:43, 20 April 2011 (BST)
:Haven't seen Echo in months........ Well, deal with that later. For now, shove it down and try and assess the damages and get the taste of blood out of my mouth.

<center>'''NOVEMBER 2011'''</center>
-------


:'''[[Mockridge Heights|MOCKRIDGE HEIGHTS]]''' - I am learning quickly how to survive on my own here. Now, I have familiarity with three suburbs and half of [[Mockridge Heights]]. There seems to be a corridor of safety between between the suburb buffer for [[Ridleybank]] aka [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] and [[Kempsterbank]] in the form of [[Shackleville]] and [[Mockridge Heights]].
:'''Fae Sidhe: 21:52, 29 November 2011 (UTC)''' - Got the SE-2 SE Quad up again as far as transmitters and gennies. Fuel is not easy to find in the quad right now. Attempts have proven less than fruitful. Restocking from elsewhere is required soon. At least it's safe to walk around outside. I might be able to bring back out my stilletos, blissfully happy that no zed will bite my ankle on a leisurely walk outside.


:Had an idiot ask me to violate [[Sacred Ground Policy]] today. Only thing I could do was stare at him, recite [[Sacred Ground Policy]] synopsis and then ask if the zed he was requesting the death of ever attacked him at all.
:Several survivors and known enemies of the survivor population at the Errington queue have remained down. That many dead bodies in which syringes have been stuck - or in the case of enemies, bullets - is troublesome. Not all zed spies are identified. Well, one more nightmare - the rise and subsequent mob of the quad.
 
:There is no Necrotech in [[Galbraith Hills]] or [[Mockridge Heights]].. which makes both suburbs inadequate for a long term hold over. I do not wish to travel out of the suburb to correspond with Echo... The only reasonable location so far is [[Shackleville]].. though I hear [[Tollyton]] has four hospitals, a Necrotech, two police stations, a few fire stations... and, to boot, a mall.  A mall that isn't Pole Mall! Can you believe it? With [[Shackleville]] its direct neighbor to the west and the [[Raymond Building]] on the eastern end... A good cross suburb pass...
 
:Next stop, [[Tollyton]]. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 04:29, 20 April 2011 (BST)
 
---
:'''[[Galbraith Hills|GALBRAITH HILLS]]''' - I took up residence across the street from [[Mockridge Heights]]' [[Wheaton Avenue Police Department]] in the [[Deed Library]] right on the border -- hugging it. This morning, there were quite a few zed in the streets, but they were scattered. I'm guessing ferals without any organization.  I took one out that was looking too closely at the [[Wheaton Avenue Police Department|police station]]. Didn't want to really risk it. Not here. Not now.


:I also saw a zed I tagged in central [[Mockridge Heights]] yesterday... I don't think it actually followed me, but I let it be for the time being with another good tagging just in case to keep its tracer strong. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 21:36, 18 April 2011 (BST)
:And on that note, remind me to find battery acid or something a bit stronger. Tons of spray cans lying about.


---
:'''Fae Sidhe: 05:34, 28 November 2011 (UTC)''' - The auto repair stock pile of fuel cans ran low... Had to make a sweep to the west. Took a lot longer than I cared for it to.


:'''[[Mockridge Heights|MOCKRIDGE HEIGHTS]] & [[Galbraith Hills|GALBRAITH HILLS]]''' - I delved into [[Mockridge Heights]] and a block or two into [[Galbraith Hills]] after I rested up. The [[Mockridge Heights]] suburb itself and the southern part of [[Galbraith Hills]] is pretty safe. I didn't run into much there, though.. not even survivors until I hit [[Galbraith Hills|The Hills]]. Some idiot keeps talking about "the mall" on 27.55 MHz. Idiot, there are ''at least'' four malls in the Greater Ridleybank area and the suburbs on that border. Be. More. Specific.
:The SE-2 SE Quad is quiet right now -- a single Zed at Errington... a rotter. Most of the survivors.. not sure where they ran off to. Those few left in the quad I'm not extremely familiar with. Makes me a little nervous.  


:I also tagged another zed for Necrotech. I am beginning to see the usefulness of this for both those of us locked in this hell of a quarantine experiment and for data for Echo outside, and the usefulness of the Necrotech revivification (obviously). There were rumors that Necrotech was responsible for this, and this is their experiment.. but it is also their technology that is keeping us from being completely zed food. The technology assists us in keeping their numbers down.
:'''Fae Sidhe: 07:38, 27 November 2011 (UTC)''' - World settled down. I've found a place in [[Tollyton]] and created the SE-2 SE Quad in the SE corner of [[Tollyton]] -- named for the SE-2 Radio District. It also incorporates the only Necrotech for the suburb, Rayfield... The Future is one of the more active groups to the area, holding [[Woodroffe Mall]] to the northwest.


:I stood on top of a building today, watching four zeds circling around in a local cemetery.. I left them to be revivified as per the [[Sacred Ground Policy]]. I could not help them, but maybe once I am more familiar with Necrotech technology...  
:When I first settled in the area, I thought their recruiting line was hilarious. As I get to briefly know some of their members now, I take them a lot more seriously now. Well, some of them.


:It will be a future discussion with Echo, I'm sure. I have to locate a NecroTech facility here and see if I can touch base... I checked in briefly in [[Shackleville]], but I was only able to hold my stomach steady for so long so it was a short conversation.. but it was nice to see his relief in his features even as I lied to him about being attacked. I made sure the bandage hid the extent of the bite. I did manage to find a pretty new red dress in a hotel.. At least if I get blood on it, the stain won't be as noticeable. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 04:39, 18 April 2011 (BST)
:But more importantly, I met someone else that makes living in a Zed hell a little bit easier.


---
---
:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - If the process of dying is a frightening one, the process of revivification is a disgusting one. I do not think I ate anyone while I was ''dead'' so at least when I try and eat non-human foods and cannot hold it down, I'm not looking at another chunk of human.
<center>'''MAY 2011'''</center>
-------


:They patched me up nicely at [[Swithun General Hospital|Swithun]], and I found a new shirt left over from the graveyard sleep area in a locker. I think in a day or so, I'll be ready to head back out, but first I have to get back to the [[Raymond Building]] and check in with Echo. Just a few days I've known him, but I already feel it's my duty to not completely let him wonder if a zed ate me alive.  
:'''Fae Sidhe: 04:29, 1 June 2011 (BST)''' - That didn't last long -- they got smarter, I guess.. We had to be close by to keep popping in and taking them out, no? Process of elimination.. and I think some survivors are just plain lazy -- but hey. Let us waste our ammo on defense and blister our hand breaking down things for the barricades while you sit on your ass. Please do. Yes, yes. We'll be fine...


:Then again, I am assuming he cares whether I check back in or not. What am I but someone whose survival rate is so low they left us for dead in quarantine? Oh my government that hath abandoned us --- Fuck you. At least they haven't decided to incinerate the area via aircraft. Perhaps this really is one huge experiment on a regional level. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 22:20, 16 April 2011 (BST)
:Throw you to the zed hordes.. maybe enough of a distraction to step away. I need a cigarette. Maybe there's a gas station nearby that hasn't been completely ransacked. Pull your weight, and I'll blaze guns beside you. Other wise, you're the bait. Period.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - I wretched when I came to in [[Swaffield Plaza]] just south of the [[Raymond Building]]. I took a moment to gain my bearings. I was covered in blood on my torso, and I still had a few nasty bite marks on my upper arm. Burn and puss -- infected. My blood still covered my hands and upper arm --- a little on the torso, but rain was beginning to fall. It caused me to seek shelter. I don't do drowned rat, blood covered zed well.
:'''Fae Sidhe: 15:05, 30 May 2011 (BST)''' -- Haven't had a lot of time to jot things down. I've found a safe haven for survivors -- sorta. Nothing's ever really safe around here, but it's easier to hold. Only thing it lacks is a good place to pick up ammunition.


:Everything is still fuzzy, flashes in the haze. I wish I had time to clean myself up further -- safely -- before going to [[Swithun General Hospital]]. I need new clothes. For some reason, modesty is still ingrained in the back of my mind -- but I don't have the time. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 16:50, 16 April 2011 (BST)
:Took out two zed yesterday in a building they brought down. Again. Also broke down the pinball table I was hoping --- some day --- to be able to repair and actually play like a civilized human being. So much for that, but necessary for the 'cade.
:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - It stopped beating on me. I was wandering the northern edge of [[Shackleville]], [[Lorenzo General Hospital|Lorenzo's]] broken silhouette looming dark to the north in [[Stanbury Village|The Village]]. I took a chance to try and face my fears... and check out the mansion near [[Lorenzo General Hospital]]. Rich fuckers. Really, I should have known better.


:Wish I hadn't.. I stumbled in on two zeds rending a survivor -- I tried to help. Didn't realize I was too late by the time I got there... Infection was the least of my worries.. I ran. I got hit again circling back to get into [[Shackleville]]. I made it, but not far enough. I don't think it was the same zed, just dumb fucked luck. There's blood everywhere. Mine.. I think I'm going to die.  
:Heard the east was safe -- they had shit up and running again. It's funny because when I look east, all I see is smoke and even that stopped. Not a soul in sight currently.. Another zed town like Tollyton, I suppose? Always just a little better if you go here.. there.. any where but here or [[Stanbury Village|The Village]].


:This is what facing your fears gets you in quarantine. I just hope I'm not beyond repair and enough of me survives to locate a revivification center.. At least now, I have hope that death really is not the end for the infected or those with a cortex intact. The [[Raymond Building]] seems so far away right now.. Echo, I'm so afraid.  --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 15:19, 15 April 2011 (BST)
:'''Fae Sidhe: 21:41, 26 May 2011 (BST)''' - I've found yet another friendly soul in this god forsaken hell hole. He runs an establishment here just far enough away from high populations of zed it's safer.. yet close enough to be of assistance and easily restock.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Whatever the rumor was that the [[Ridleybank Resistance Front|RRF]] were progressing into [[Shackleville]] turned out to either be delayed or misinformed. Whatever zeds massing out front  looked like ferals. An organized front would not have been dispatched so easily.. judging by the two accounted for body count. The others must have dispersed.  
:Plus, there's pints.. Haven't had a pint in ages.


:The suburb is quiet... for now. It is the first time in a while I have not had to worry about waking up to some rancid zed trying to chew my face off so I can sleep my hour or two in peace. It's also the first night I could sleep, have my nightmares of [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] and wake up not in an almost as bad situation. I suppose there are perks to having a large amount of survivors, even if searches prove less fruitful due to everything useful being close to picked over.
:Still no powered NT.. and I imagine it's looking a little worse for wear right now thanks to no actual holding presence.. but I've been studying repairs and am now contemplating, at some point in the near future, building a gennie for it once it can reasonably be held.


:I spent an hour talking to Echo again via the video system in the NecroTech.. It's extremely lonely in the land of survivors. I cannot seem to connect. We are all so worried about surviving or slaughtering, we forget we can't stay in this high alert forever. The body will give eventually if not the mind first. When I speak, I am not responded to by most. Do they speak English?
:'''Fae Sidhe: 22:00, 25 May 2011 (BST)''' - The 'cades fell. I should really know better. It's just been a duck and run situation lately... Right now, I've held up at a NT.. which is probably the worst place ever to hold up, honest to truthful and forsaken god... but I don't have too much choice at the moment. I helped 'cade it up some more.. and I'm hoping it lasts long enough to clean myself up, maybe restock at the nearby hospital where more zeds are gathered yet less likely to eat me in an in-and-out hostile situation. This was what I was trained for, right?


:Echo did teach me what the DNA Extractor did and how to use it. I tagged my first zed tonight. It registered as a science officer.. I guess it makes sense the science-y types would hang close to the NecroTech they spent their lives working in. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 01:32, 15 April 2011 (BST)
:One of the zeds got blood all over my mirror shades when he snatched, grabbed and broke them. They're ruined.. Maybe I should make another stop by the mall and see if it has been retaken?


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Overheard talk at [[Raymond Building]] while I was camping down for the night. Rumors that the [[Ridleybank Resistance Front]] is moving this direction via [[Rotwood]] which they have subsequently demolished the resource buildings. They are a little far away from home, but it makes sense because [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] belongs to them and is part of Greater Ridleybank.. as is [[Rotwood]]. It was used as a buffer suburb, I think.  
:'''Fae Sidhe: 21:50, 20 May 2011 (BST)''' - Been briefly discussing tactics with another survivor. We're pretty much in agreement that it's a 'cade and FAK situation to try and hold out against the growing numbers of zed outside. Either way, I'm packing heat as well as a red cross.  


:They also mentioned a group of zed are now converging outside and into the block. Fuck. The two survivors speaking seem gave one of the zeds a name -- Heg.
:Right now, I'm slowly beginning to learn the art of barricading against zed intrusions. With any luck, I'll be able to actually contribute to the maintenance of the 'cade beyond putting a bullet in some zed's body parts and watching him not fall down most of the time.


:His name -- the doctor -- is Zach Echo, by the way. He has one of the most gorgeous laughs, even though I can tell he's strained. He's located outside of quarantine. Maybe if I make it out alive... If this NecroTech goes down, I need to find another or I will not be able to see Echo. Hell, I need to just make it out alive. I debate if there is enough of us to defend against an organized attack, much less one from [[Ridleybank Resistance Front]]. I am hoping it is just a group of ferals.. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 05:47, 14 April 2011 (BST)
:Echo, Echo, Echo... The memory of your face on that huge screen in the probably blood soaked Necrotech back in [[Shackleville]] is probably one reason I continue trying to survive. The other is I hate being dead.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Slept in the [[Swithun General Hospital]]. Lots of people so no agent movements that I know of.. no zeds breaching. Was the first good sleep in a while. Still had nightmares from [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] though. Will I ever escape that first siege experience?
:'''Fae Sidhe: 19:51, 19 May 2011 (BST)''' - Few zed here and there. I discovered a Necrotech facility, but it's not in an easy location to reach. By foot, yes, but by foot is not always the best option currently if you take into account the massacre of the last two weeks.


:Helped heal up a survivor that got busted up a little bit by the zeds and then grabbed some FAKs I found in a back closet storage room. Managed to locate two pistol clips at the police station too. So much better than a shotgun, in my opinion..  
:The building was ruined. No doubt about it. There was a zed there --- perhaps he wanted to be revivified. I'm not sure. He looked kinda suspect. I did manage to find a few syringes in the mess. For the first time in a while, I'm beginning to think maybe -- just maybe -- we might have a good chance to rebuild. Now the big question is how to keep a massacre from happening again?


:Heh. The funny thing is, though.. I stumbled into the local NecroTech and came upon two syringes. I found two extractors close by as well. When I tried to access their computer system, all I got was an error message about clearance. Hell, I'm in the military.. or was.. so I can understand that. An attempt to hack the grid only got me a video of a doctor...... He was an attractive doctor so I probably stared longer than I should have before I realized the video was live, and he was talking to me. Heh. Silly me. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 01:46, 14 April 2011 (BST)
:'''Fae Sidhe: 14:49, 19 May 2011 (BST)''' - The atmosphere has gotten better. I'm thinking maybe, just maybe, the suburb is recovering. I discovered a pinata in a portion of the mall, but over all, the zed haven't been able to make much headway. Received a report early this morning that the mall was cleared too, pinata down. I am now attempting to locate the closest Necrotech facility.. I may not be able to reach Echo, but I can begin to assist other survivors.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Woke up in [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] with a zed on top of me. Could smell his rancid breath -- granted, zeds don't actually breathe but the stench is there regardless.. He got me on the upper arm, and I'm pretty sure it's infected judging by the puss and the burning sensation. Starting to think the insomnia is becoming beneficial. If they do manage to eat me alive, I'll be too delusional to care. This is the second time I stopped to catch an hour or two. Note to self, do not sleep in [[Stanbury Village|The Village]].
:'''Fae Sidhe: 16:39, 18 May 2011 (BST)''' - My head's cleared. I wonder how much dying a human body can take, but I don't plan to do this again. I've been watching a mall in the distance. Zeds everywhere, as always lately. Went through and looted it, got some amazing new threads... got a couple FAKs. I was lucky enough to find a cell phone now.. but no signal. Maybe later. It will make it easier to keep in touch with Echo. I never thought I'd find one so I never thought to exchange numbers...


:Shoved the corpse off and bucked it straight west. Buildings became unfamiliar and realized I managed to get into the western suburb [[Mockridge Heights]]. I withdrew back to [[Swithun General Hospital]] in [[Shackleville]] to clear the infection and heal.
:We were hiding pretty well until a new survivor came.. door slammed, echoed through the building.. and.. is now stuck. This is going to scream survivor buffet. They've decided to barricade high to compensate.. which also says survivor buffet, but we have little choice after all that noise... I went ahead and cleaned up some of the blood. If we're gonna scream survivor buffet, might as well not leave them the condiment from previous meals... Need to move soon. I don't think this is such a good idea for long-term.. or even longer than necessary, especially after the Church idiocy of [[Wyke Hills]].


:It seems [[Shackleville]] is starting to feel like home. Perhaps I can navigate through [[Mockridge Heights]] to [[Galbraith Hills]] to investigate [[Stanbury Village|The Village]]'s north western corner for the [[The Fortress]]. I have not seen any signs of the the [[Department of Emergency Management]] lately here. Does the proximity to [[Stanbury Village|The Village]], [[Kempsterbank]], and, more importantly, [[Ridleybank]] deter organized groups from keeping stable posts? [[Rotter's Relief]] tried and while I still don't know exactly whose side they're on, most of the ones in [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] are probably zed food. All that remains is their blood smeared graffiti and ruins. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 02:13, 13 April 2011 (BST)
:Don't count me out yet, Echo.


---
:'''Fae Sidhe: 22:07, 16 May 2011 (BST)''' - Woke up.. blood. My body is still shaking. I'm not sure how long I was out. Memory is a little hazy, but it's coming back in flashes. I managed to find a sizeable stash of FAKs.. but now I'm caught out in the open. The city is ruined... What'll I do now. Whoever plunged the needle to revivify me.. I dunno where you are now. Is there a survivor strong-hold?
:'''[[Stanbury Village]]''' - Decided to investigate [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] again and make my way to the northwest quadrant. Found more ammunition for my shotgun at [[Daynes Alley Police Department]]. I hate shotguns, but pistol clips are rarer. I found a pistol with 4 left in the clip and scavenged it just before a zed broke a weak spot in the barrier. I should've known better, I guess. I didn't hear it so it must have been pretty damn weak spot to begin with. I got a few shots off it -- the pistol clip gone now as well as a shot off the shotgun. Helped a survivor get back on his feet and then kicked it out of there. [[St. Maria's Church]] is under attack... [[St. Augustine's Church]] is ruined.


:Shouldn't be surprised here. Unlike [[Kempsterbank]], I have a sort of nostalgia for [[Stanbury Village|The Village]].... and the nightmares it gives me when I get an hour or two of sleep between bouts of insomnia. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 03:18, 12 April 2011 (BST)
:.. All I see are bodies... and most of them probably want to devour me.


---
---


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Found ammunition in a police station. Was walking among buildings and slipped. Ran into a lone zed, but I saw him first because he didn't react. Not a revivification point.. Unloaded the newly supplied ammunition from my pistol clip into his head. Dead zed.
::'''NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 20:48, 14 May 2011 (BST) ''' 1 in 5.. What was two weeks in that study? Half of the remainder. Sometimes being a scientist and having to place facts and figures to everything can be a real kill joy.


:Ran into rumors of a group called [[The Fortress]] that did a few operations in the northern part of [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] and into [[Ridleybank]]. If I remember right, though, [[Ridleybank]] is a stronghold for a rather aggressive zed group. Do I risk it to search for an organized group of survivors? --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 02:59, 11 April 2011 (BST)
::After re-playing my logs, I decided I got way too personal; I shared personal information. I formed a friendship. If my supervisor Dr. Kuelling found out... Well, he will not find out. It is as simple as that. I cannot afford to be removed from this post. At least not until I know one way or another.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Got a transmission on 27.55 that Dobbs is under attack and falling. I was just at that Nectrotech about two days ago on my way OUT of [[Kempsterbank]]. Seems I chose a prime time to clear out. Pole Mall is also under attack again. Not quite sure where that is though, by assumptions I think it's south of [[Kempsterbank]] in [[West Grayside]] if I remember the map of the area correctly. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 22:32, 9 April 2011 (BST)
::'''NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 22:33, 13 May 2011 (BST) ''' It is not looking good. Six days since she last popped up onto the radar... Seven days. Is it because she cannot find an operational Necrotech or did she succumb? Seven days. What was that ratio? 1 in 5...


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Finally reached [[Shackleville]]'s outer edges again. Can't say it was a pleasant time in [[Kempsterbank]]. It's gotten crowded with survivors here again though. Safety in numbers but also less supplies and more likely to draw zed attention. Gonna spend another day or two, stock up on ammo now that I'm restocked on FAK after a pause at St. Mateos' on the edge of [[Kempsterbank]] and [[Shackleville]].
::'''NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 15:15, 12 May 2011 (BST) ''' It's a massacre across the quarantine zone. That's really all I can say. For all the technology we have, we are helpless against what is happening in that quarantine zone. No one is checking in. We lost contact with so many of our facilities...


:Perhaps I should try some target practice on the [[Shackleville]] / [[Stanbury Village|Village]] border. After that freakish zed and his skin, I think I need to get more familiar with the gun. It's not exactly military standard issue..  --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 05:35, 9 April 2011 (BST)
::We have lost contact, period. All we have is data stream from satellite.. Quarantine is a no fly zone so we do not have that.


---
::With Sidhe -- no, with Subject 135713 -- I have to keep reminding myself that she is part of this experiment. Plain and simple. If she dies, it was Darwinism.. but I do not think Darwin factored in undead specimens.
:'''[[Kempsterbank|KEMPSTERBANK]]''' - I think I was tracked by the same zed I unloaded on yesterday. These things are supposed to be stupid, but I guess that's a lie with organized units spreading. Thankfully, just made it with some scrapes. An axe to the head by another survivor finished the job I did on it yesterday.


:I'm not extremely religious, but I read this zed fiction book before all this shit went down about smart zeds that were actually demons inhabiting the bodies of the dead in the first stage of the apocalypse. Maybe they're demons. Wouldn't that be funny if this was truly the path to judgment?... I'm starting to sound like a death cultist. I need to get the hell out of [[Kempsterbank]]. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 15:15, 8 April 2011 (BST)
::'''NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 17:25, 10 May 2011 (BST) ''' - Most of the radio chatter has stopped in the eastern part of the quarantine area.. It seems to just be moving west. Some areas are presumed a complete lost and marked unknown. At this rate, will there be any survivors left in Malton to continue the fight before the government decides it is in the best interest to eradicate what many believe is a lab rat test ground?


:'''[[Kempsterbank|KEMPSTERBANK]]''' - Made the mistake of pausing for a rest and FAK resupply so close to St. Ferrerol in Titus. The barricades came down, and the zed came in. Blew my rest of my ammo, but not before infection set in for three of us from bites. Managed to clear all three of us of infection, but there's nothing else that could be done -- whatever was on that Zed's skin, and I'm guessing the bloated flesh -- made fighting with anything except a gun worthless.  
::If Sidhe does not check in soon, I will have to label her a complete loss.


:Need to get the hell out of [[Kempsterbank]]. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 21:00, 7 April 2011 (BST)
::'''NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 00:11, 9 May 2011 (BST)''' - Subject 135713 is lost again. She has not checked in at a Necrotech facility. If she were smart, she would move northwest. Judging by her last two previous locations, she fled to the southern border of the quarantine.. there is little else left to move, but it seems the grounds are safer than going back.


:'''[[Kempsterbank|KEMPSTERBANK]]''' - Traveled down south into [[Kempsterbank]] to check out the last call from a few days ago. That and, I hate to say this, when a zed force moves through, they have no use for supplies. More than anything, I just wanted to check for survivors.
::Sidhe. Where are you? Why did you go back into [[Wyke Hills]]?


:Wish I hadn't. For supposedly being extremely friendly for survivors, that's no longer the case. It's quite the opposite of [[Shackleville]]. St. Ferrerol hospital was in ruins. I stopped by to bandage up a few infected in southern portion.. The puss was spreading fast, but I managed. One was beyond saving, but I couldn't take his life. Just couldn't do it. Even as a zed, he has a chance of revivification. Course, that's assuming he would want to come back...
---
:'''[[Wyke Hills|WYKE HILLS]]: 19:01, 6 May 2011 (BST)''' - I'm getting very tired of being soaked in my own blood. Once the shock wore off, I found out I was in worse straights than I thought when I had to be revivified... again -- '''infected'''. Everything was ruined on this side of [[Wyke Hills]] and on the other side of [[Buttonville]].. to the north in [[Kempsterbank]]... [[West Grayside]]... [[Gulsonside]]..Can't catch a break.


:Going back to [[Shackleville]]. Despite a large number of hospitals, most are down here. They need all the supplies they can get. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 14:55, 7 April 2011 (BST)
:Ducked in and out until I found a small nest of survivors. One, William Turpin, was nice enough to rid me of the infection, but supplies are so scarce right now with so much of the buildings completely ransacked.. ruined. I was lucky he could spare even that much of his supplies. Mine ran out in [[Gulsonside]]. Every other place from here north to [[Shackleville]] is ruined... And there's no Necrotech standing in the vicinity to touch base with Echo... and staying here much longer than necessary is suicide.. but where else is there to go?


---
---
:: '''NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 14:03, 6 May 2011 (BST)''' - Subject 135713 began to move about 22 minutes ago. At the rate of movement, we are estimating she is alive, but the signal is degrading rapidly.. also another sign of the revivification syrum bonding with the extraction tag molecules and nullifying them.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Woke up with a start and a pain in the calf. I checked myself over to see if I was bit -- just as a precaution. Maybe I didn't realize it in the adrenaline the last day or two. Nothing. Turned out to be a muscle cramp. I think they call them charlie horses or something. Another night successfully survived... for what that's worth.
:: '''NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 8:58, 6 May 2011 (BST)''' - She appeared on the map an hour ago, but she has not moved since.. and she is not covered. Is she dead.. is she undead?


:Lots of chatter over the radio to the south. From what I can tell, a survivor base fell in the next suburb down. It's very quiet here. I've managed to restock pretty nicely. I found two fuel cans even and, because I appreciate the constant ''human'' presence, I filled up a few generators to keep the lights on and the radio transmitter running.
::'''[[Necrotech|NECROTECH LOG]]: Zach Echo, Dr. - 03:38, 5 May 2011 (BST)''' - Still nothing. There are specimens -- the living dead -- every where all over [[Shackleville]] and [[Tollyton]]. How many of them are sympathetic survivors? Not every survivor, once dead, wants to return to life..  


:I can't stay here forever though. I might head south to scout the issue. I think there's a mall there. Maybe I'll find a pair of heels for kicks. Be a nice change with warmer weather approaching if impractical.. but this suburb, at least for the moment, has been pretty safe. I'd estimate maybe 50 different people occupying the heart. Nice to see living faces after what happened in [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] even if, at least for the moment, I keep my distance. I still find it difficult to penetrate cliques.. and, quite frankly, I fear agents after the incident in [[Stanbury Village|The Village]] too.  
::Past studies have shown that there is a 1 in 10 chance that if the subject -- the living -- is killed and not returned to their living state within a few days, they do not return at all. The number drops to 1 in 5 after a week. The numbers are not looking good if Subject 35713 was killed in that horde...


:I have not seen any more sign of the MES... I am beginning to wonder just how far away they actually are in their next base. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 01:20, 6 April 2011 (BST)
::Please, Sidhe. Don't make that scared smile the last memory I have of you.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - Saw the lights go out at Doig Fire Station. Thought maybe the generator went out --- there's not a lot of zeds in this area. It's why I chose to rebuild supplies and rest..
---
:'''[[Wyke Hills|WYKE HILLS]]: 18:32, 4 May 2011 (BST)''' - I can't.. I can't.. I can't.. I can't.. I woke up in Swaffield plaza.. I had nothing to help the others. I had nothing to help myself. The revival never sits well with my stomach..


:Instead, there's a zed standing over a dead body. He's wearing a flak, but I get off some shots.. finish him off with an axe. Don't know who his victim was but really sucks to be him. Put the bodies outside. I don't have the supplies to rebuild that building. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 00:57, 5 April 2011 (BST)
:It's so cold... the blood is everywhere. Zeds are everywhere.. All the buildings are in ruin for miles on miles... There's bodies everywhere in [[Shackleville]] and [[Tollyton]]. I ran until I could find a place that was safer within a couple blocks.. It took forever. I'm so tired of running.


:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]''' - I located a portable radio earlier today on the 27.55 MHz. The juice left in it was pretty good, and it's helping to keep me informed. A police station in another suburb fell. I don't know where that was, but it wasn't here. Recommend retreat and regroup. I guess it's going pretty badly.  
---
::'''[[Necrotech|NECROTECH LOG]]: Zach Echo, Dr. - 03:51, 4 May 2011 (BST)''' - I have not heard from Subject 35713 in about 8 days. She said it was probably a false alarm that a horde was moving into the [[Shackleville|suburb]]; just like it had been a few weeks ago with the [[Tollyton]] scare.


:I did manage to take out a zed outside the revive points. Truth be told, all trained for human-to-human combat but never tested in a zed situation. I wasn't really meant to be used for that, but I guess desperate times call for desperate measures. I am not sure how I feel about it. That used to be someone's family. --- [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 22:02, 4 April 2011 (BST)
::"Don't worry so much," she said with a smile. I should have known better than to take ''that'' at face value. Satellite and some Necrowatch showed a large concentration of the living dead as survivors began to tag them, little glowing pinpricks the day after she said that.


=== March 2011, Summary, Shackleville & Stanbury Village, Back Information ===
::At least she has not popped up in the NecroWatch system yet. That is the best condolences I can give myself at the moment. I gave the technician her name to keep watch and inform me if it pops up any where on the grid.


---


:The first couple days at the new base Op were promising. However, the slaughter was bad. The encampment was surrounded. An agent blew our cover. Ever since they discovered a higher organizational pattern in the brain of some zeds, people have been kinda scared. Well, more scared. I mean, seriously. Dead people coming back to life. Even those of us with training to handle it... Well, shit, man. They didn't train us to handle this.
:'''[[Shackleville|SHACKLEVILLE]]: 21:17, 2 May 2011 (BST)''' - '''<i>Dried blood smears the middle of the page, an awkward, jagged "E" formed by a finger.</i>'''<br>
 
:Somehow ended up in the Malton suburb of Shackleville. It was pretty quiet except for the occasionally groaning. Saw a flare up to the north and followed it, hoping to find someone alive and friendly.
 
:I should have known better. Followed it right to a zed horde surrounding the Lorenzo Hospital just inside The Village. Was a nightmare siege, and I watched them ruin the building and listened to the screams of the defenders from the roof of the Kersley Mansion. Fuck.
 
:Two survivor were with me, but I was uneasy. There was something odd about them, especially when one pulled a gun on me. Had a flashback of that mother fuckin' agent. Here I was, without a gun, and so I managed to just barely escape. Kid wasn't that good at building hopping, I guess. I guess it pays to be a forward scout sometimes -- you learn how to move.
 
:Two agents in two weeks, and still recovering from that first fuck over. Low on FAKs, and I wasn't going to get any thing from Lorenzo.
 
:Catherine Hospital faired little better at first look. A local group, Rotter's Relief, moved into Mosley, and that helped keep it mostly in survivor hands though the swarm grew bigger and bigger every day outside both resources. I can't tell if Rotter's Relief is a bunch of zed sympathizers with some agents mixed in or just legitimately caring about bringing people back to life and respecting people who wish to remain dead. Either way, some zeds don't respect what they're doing judging by the swarm growing outside looking for dinner.
 
:Catherine fell first. That, too, was just a replay of Lorenzo Hospital. Fuck, man. Mosley fell next as did the base op for Rotter's Relief at the moment. Still not sure about them.
 
:Got fucked up at Catherine's fight. I got out of there alive though -- which is a hell of a lot more than I can say for some others. Ran into a guy from the Malton Emergency Services (MES). That group definitely warrants more investigation, especially the firefighters... but there is no fire station in The Village.


:After watching Catherine over run and Mosley's lights go out, I headed back south and into Shackleville. Maybe I'd have better luck there for supplies and finding a member of MES's Firefighters. [[User:Fae Sidhe|Fae Sidhe]] 19:45, 2 April 2011 (BST)

December 2011

Fae Sidhe: 19:12, 16 December 2011 (UTC) - SE-2 SE Quad is repaired fully and operational. I requested information about Riddick, but.... nothing. I am wondering if he went to Ft. Perryn. I checked the malls and the Collis Tower complex in the area. I don't want to think he's still zed and out there some where. It doesn't make sense though. He shares the same dislike for zed I do.
Maybe he just thought it time to move on. Either way, I carry a syringe on me just in case I find him. ...
... I'm getting pathetic.
Fae Sidhe: 19:41, 15 December 2011 (UTC) - SE-2 SE Quad is repaired... I am eternally grateful for The Future at the moment, who just returned from the Ft. Perryn fight... even if I had one giving me an order like I was of their ranks. I am considering applying though. For now, I am SE-2 SE Quad exclusively.
All the buildings are back up and lit. Zed activity is minimal. I have yet to locate Riddick. I wonder what happened to him. I've put in an inquiry with deecay, of The Future. If all else fails, I can try to put out a bulletin, I guess.
Fae Sidhe: 20:18, 7 December 2011 (UTC) - Bad Zed. Bad Zed. Need a fuckin' spray bottle. Bad Zed. Nine Zed in the area, five showing known open hostility. I'm sure the others will soon too as they're new arrivals.
Went back to the Arms... They ruined it. Killed them all. Nothing I could do at that point. Barely made it out myself -- infected again. Handled it, but... Riddick. I went back to look for him... Looked among the mob. Nothing. Not at Errington... nothing. He should know I'd come find him. Needs to stay close by or near Rayfield...
Fae Sidhe: 19:09, 4 December 2011 (UTC) - Page is covered in blood splatters, fingerprints - Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Bad. Three zed took out the auto repair.. I killed them, rebuilt, re-caded.. refueled the quad.. went back for more fuel... Zed breath still smells like rotting meat, har. har.
Had enough supplies on me to stop the infection. Think I feel about as bad as I look... A survivor I'd never seen before killed a Zed that retook the auto center. I guess I looked bad enough he thought I was already dead. I guess I should be thankful he didn't just put a bullet in my skull. The distraction gave me enough time to get away safely. Lost that battle, I imagine my brother would say.
Think Riddick is mad at me. He used to find me in the quad if I wandered too far off. Now he just stays in The Arms, silent. Sleeping. Came in and spoke to him other night. Realized he was sleeping after getting no response after a minute or so.
Haven't seen Echo in months........ Well, deal with that later. For now, shove it down and try and assess the damages and get the taste of blood out of my mouth.

NOVEMBER 2011

Fae Sidhe: 21:52, 29 November 2011 (UTC) - Got the SE-2 SE Quad up again as far as transmitters and gennies. Fuel is not easy to find in the quad right now. Attempts have proven less than fruitful. Restocking from elsewhere is required soon. At least it's safe to walk around outside. I might be able to bring back out my stilletos, blissfully happy that no zed will bite my ankle on a leisurely walk outside.
Several survivors and known enemies of the survivor population at the Errington queue have remained down. That many dead bodies in which syringes have been stuck - or in the case of enemies, bullets - is troublesome. Not all zed spies are identified. Well, one more nightmare - the rise and subsequent mob of the quad.
And on that note, remind me to find battery acid or something a bit stronger. Tons of spray cans lying about.
Fae Sidhe: 05:34, 28 November 2011 (UTC) - The auto repair stock pile of fuel cans ran low... Had to make a sweep to the west. Took a lot longer than I cared for it to.
The SE-2 SE Quad is quiet right now -- a single Zed at Errington... a rotter. Most of the survivors.. not sure where they ran off to. Those few left in the quad I'm not extremely familiar with. Makes me a little nervous.
Fae Sidhe: 07:38, 27 November 2011 (UTC) - World settled down. I've found a place in Tollyton and created the SE-2 SE Quad in the SE corner of Tollyton -- named for the SE-2 Radio District. It also incorporates the only Necrotech for the suburb, Rayfield... The Future is one of the more active groups to the area, holding Woodroffe Mall to the northwest.
When I first settled in the area, I thought their recruiting line was hilarious. As I get to briefly know some of their members now, I take them a lot more seriously now. Well, some of them.
But more importantly, I met someone else that makes living in a Zed hell a little bit easier.

MAY 2011

Fae Sidhe: 04:29, 1 June 2011 (BST) - That didn't last long -- they got smarter, I guess.. We had to be close by to keep popping in and taking them out, no? Process of elimination.. and I think some survivors are just plain lazy -- but hey. Let us waste our ammo on defense and blister our hand breaking down things for the barricades while you sit on your ass. Please do. Yes, yes. We'll be fine...
Throw you to the zed hordes.. maybe enough of a distraction to step away. I need a cigarette. Maybe there's a gas station nearby that hasn't been completely ransacked. Pull your weight, and I'll blaze guns beside you. Other wise, you're the bait. Period.
Fae Sidhe: 15:05, 30 May 2011 (BST) -- Haven't had a lot of time to jot things down. I've found a safe haven for survivors -- sorta. Nothing's ever really safe around here, but it's easier to hold. Only thing it lacks is a good place to pick up ammunition.
Took out two zed yesterday in a building they brought down. Again. Also broke down the pinball table I was hoping --- some day --- to be able to repair and actually play like a civilized human being. So much for that, but necessary for the 'cade.
Heard the east was safe -- they had shit up and running again. It's funny because when I look east, all I see is smoke and even that stopped. Not a soul in sight currently.. Another zed town like Tollyton, I suppose? Always just a little better if you go here.. there.. any where but here or The Village.
Fae Sidhe: 21:41, 26 May 2011 (BST) - I've found yet another friendly soul in this god forsaken hell hole. He runs an establishment here just far enough away from high populations of zed it's safer.. yet close enough to be of assistance and easily restock.
Plus, there's pints.. Haven't had a pint in ages.
Still no powered NT.. and I imagine it's looking a little worse for wear right now thanks to no actual holding presence.. but I've been studying repairs and am now contemplating, at some point in the near future, building a gennie for it once it can reasonably be held.
Fae Sidhe: 22:00, 25 May 2011 (BST) - The 'cades fell. I should really know better. It's just been a duck and run situation lately... Right now, I've held up at a NT.. which is probably the worst place ever to hold up, honest to truthful and forsaken god... but I don't have too much choice at the moment. I helped 'cade it up some more.. and I'm hoping it lasts long enough to clean myself up, maybe restock at the nearby hospital where more zeds are gathered yet less likely to eat me in an in-and-out hostile situation. This was what I was trained for, right?
One of the zeds got blood all over my mirror shades when he snatched, grabbed and broke them. They're ruined.. Maybe I should make another stop by the mall and see if it has been retaken?
Fae Sidhe: 21:50, 20 May 2011 (BST) - Been briefly discussing tactics with another survivor. We're pretty much in agreement that it's a 'cade and FAK situation to try and hold out against the growing numbers of zed outside. Either way, I'm packing heat as well as a red cross.
Right now, I'm slowly beginning to learn the art of barricading against zed intrusions. With any luck, I'll be able to actually contribute to the maintenance of the 'cade beyond putting a bullet in some zed's body parts and watching him not fall down most of the time.
Echo, Echo, Echo... The memory of your face on that huge screen in the probably blood soaked Necrotech back in Shackleville is probably one reason I continue trying to survive. The other is I hate being dead.
Fae Sidhe: 19:51, 19 May 2011 (BST) - Few zed here and there. I discovered a Necrotech facility, but it's not in an easy location to reach. By foot, yes, but by foot is not always the best option currently if you take into account the massacre of the last two weeks.
The building was ruined. No doubt about it. There was a zed there --- perhaps he wanted to be revivified. I'm not sure. He looked kinda suspect. I did manage to find a few syringes in the mess. For the first time in a while, I'm beginning to think maybe -- just maybe -- we might have a good chance to rebuild. Now the big question is how to keep a massacre from happening again?
Fae Sidhe: 14:49, 19 May 2011 (BST) - The atmosphere has gotten better. I'm thinking maybe, just maybe, the suburb is recovering. I discovered a pinata in a portion of the mall, but over all, the zed haven't been able to make much headway. Received a report early this morning that the mall was cleared too, pinata down. I am now attempting to locate the closest Necrotech facility.. I may not be able to reach Echo, but I can begin to assist other survivors.
Fae Sidhe: 16:39, 18 May 2011 (BST) - My head's cleared. I wonder how much dying a human body can take, but I don't plan to do this again. I've been watching a mall in the distance. Zeds everywhere, as always lately. Went through and looted it, got some amazing new threads... got a couple FAKs. I was lucky enough to find a cell phone now.. but no signal. Maybe later. It will make it easier to keep in touch with Echo. I never thought I'd find one so I never thought to exchange numbers...
We were hiding pretty well until a new survivor came.. door slammed, echoed through the building.. and.. is now stuck. This is going to scream survivor buffet. They've decided to barricade high to compensate.. which also says survivor buffet, but we have little choice after all that noise... I went ahead and cleaned up some of the blood. If we're gonna scream survivor buffet, might as well not leave them the condiment from previous meals... Need to move soon. I don't think this is such a good idea for long-term.. or even longer than necessary, especially after the Church idiocy of Wyke Hills.
Don't count me out yet, Echo.
Fae Sidhe: 22:07, 16 May 2011 (BST) - Woke up.. blood. My body is still shaking. I'm not sure how long I was out. Memory is a little hazy, but it's coming back in flashes. I managed to find a sizeable stash of FAKs.. but now I'm caught out in the open. The city is ruined... What'll I do now. Whoever plunged the needle to revivify me.. I dunno where you are now. Is there a survivor strong-hold?
.. All I see are bodies... and most of them probably want to devour me.

NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 20:48, 14 May 2011 (BST) 1 in 5.. What was two weeks in that study? Half of the remainder. Sometimes being a scientist and having to place facts and figures to everything can be a real kill joy.
After re-playing my logs, I decided I got way too personal; I shared personal information. I formed a friendship. If my supervisor Dr. Kuelling found out... Well, he will not find out. It is as simple as that. I cannot afford to be removed from this post. At least not until I know one way or another.
NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 22:33, 13 May 2011 (BST) It is not looking good. Six days since she last popped up onto the radar... Seven days. Is it because she cannot find an operational Necrotech or did she succumb? Seven days. What was that ratio? 1 in 5...
NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 15:15, 12 May 2011 (BST) It's a massacre across the quarantine zone. That's really all I can say. For all the technology we have, we are helpless against what is happening in that quarantine zone. No one is checking in. We lost contact with so many of our facilities...
We have lost contact, period. All we have is data stream from satellite.. Quarantine is a no fly zone so we do not have that.
With Sidhe -- no, with Subject 135713 -- I have to keep reminding myself that she is part of this experiment. Plain and simple. If she dies, it was Darwinism.. but I do not think Darwin factored in undead specimens.
NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 17:25, 10 May 2011 (BST) - Most of the radio chatter has stopped in the eastern part of the quarantine area.. It seems to just be moving west. Some areas are presumed a complete lost and marked unknown. At this rate, will there be any survivors left in Malton to continue the fight before the government decides it is in the best interest to eradicate what many believe is a lab rat test ground?
If Sidhe does not check in soon, I will have to label her a complete loss.
NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 00:11, 9 May 2011 (BST) - Subject 135713 is lost again. She has not checked in at a Necrotech facility. If she were smart, she would move northwest. Judging by her last two previous locations, she fled to the southern border of the quarantine.. there is little else left to move, but it seems the grounds are safer than going back.
Sidhe. Where are you? Why did you go back into Wyke Hills?

WYKE HILLS: 19:01, 6 May 2011 (BST) - I'm getting very tired of being soaked in my own blood. Once the shock wore off, I found out I was in worse straights than I thought when I had to be revivified... again -- infected. Everything was ruined on this side of Wyke Hills and on the other side of Buttonville.. to the north in Kempsterbank... West Grayside... Gulsonside..Can't catch a break.
Ducked in and out until I found a small nest of survivors. One, William Turpin, was nice enough to rid me of the infection, but supplies are so scarce right now with so much of the buildings completely ransacked.. ruined. I was lucky he could spare even that much of his supplies. Mine ran out in Gulsonside. Every other place from here north to Shackleville is ruined... And there's no Necrotech standing in the vicinity to touch base with Echo... and staying here much longer than necessary is suicide.. but where else is there to go?

NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 14:03, 6 May 2011 (BST) - Subject 135713 began to move about 22 minutes ago. At the rate of movement, we are estimating she is alive, but the signal is degrading rapidly.. also another sign of the revivification syrum bonding with the extraction tag molecules and nullifying them.
NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 8:58, 6 May 2011 (BST) - She appeared on the map an hour ago, but she has not moved since.. and she is not covered. Is she dead.. is she undead?
NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 03:38, 5 May 2011 (BST) - Still nothing. There are specimens -- the living dead -- every where all over Shackleville and Tollyton. How many of them are sympathetic survivors? Not every survivor, once dead, wants to return to life..
Past studies have shown that there is a 1 in 10 chance that if the subject -- the living -- is killed and not returned to their living state within a few days, they do not return at all. The number drops to 1 in 5 after a week. The numbers are not looking good if Subject 35713 was killed in that horde...
Please, Sidhe. Don't make that scared smile the last memory I have of you.

WYKE HILLS: 18:32, 4 May 2011 (BST) - I can't.. I can't.. I can't.. I can't.. I woke up in Swaffield plaza.. I had nothing to help the others. I had nothing to help myself. The revival never sits well with my stomach..
It's so cold... the blood is everywhere. Zeds are everywhere.. All the buildings are in ruin for miles on miles... There's bodies everywhere in Shackleville and Tollyton. I ran until I could find a place that was safer within a couple blocks.. It took forever. I'm so tired of running.

NECROTECH LOG: Zach Echo, Dr. - 03:51, 4 May 2011 (BST) - I have not heard from Subject 35713 in about 8 days. She said it was probably a false alarm that a horde was moving into the suburb; just like it had been a few weeks ago with the Tollyton scare.
"Don't worry so much," she said with a smile. I should have known better than to take that at face value. Satellite and some Necrowatch showed a large concentration of the living dead as survivors began to tag them, little glowing pinpricks the day after she said that.
At least she has not popped up in the NecroWatch system yet. That is the best condolences I can give myself at the moment. I gave the technician her name to keep watch and inform me if it pops up any where on the grid.

SHACKLEVILLE: 21:17, 2 May 2011 (BST) - Dried blood smears the middle of the page, an awkward, jagged "E" formed by a finger.
