Supply Shop

[Neon Sky]

*Radios Killjoys* Midnight Smoke here informing all Killjoys about my shop over in Zone 2; we have loads of supplys here such as food, ammo and if you want it a bed for the night, we also have loads of medical equipment for those injured, so don't feel shy and come round to collect what you need, oh and if your a Drac stay away or die. Have a nice day and stay shiny

Midnight out

[Neon Sky]

*I stand outside the shop looking at the vast amount of desert in front of me* Sky, could you make sure the green house is locked please*Neon Sky, my younger sister who's been with me this whole time in the zones*

Yeah sure*I call back to Midnight, I walk out the back of the shop, the greenhouse was only a couple of steps away from the shop so it was easy to get to and protect, I check the lock and head back inside* Yeah it's locked.

Thanks*I walk inside and join my sister who's sitting on the sofa next to the counter* What's on the radio?

Only the playlist Stellar left on, it's good music though.

[Neon Sky]

*We wasn't waiting long before some one walked into the shop* Hi how can we help you? *The Killjoy looks really nervous and shaken up*

Erm, do you have any uh, ammo? And mabye some water?

*I look at the Killjoy for a while than think to myself "Yup He's been in a fight"* Yeah sure we do I'll go get you some *I grab a box from behind the counter which is full of batterys* Here you go *I grab a couple and hand them to him*

And here's your water*I hand him a two litre bottle full of fresh water*

Er thanks, um how much do I owe you?

In times like these, nothing but your trust and your help if we need it

Oh. Well er, thank you very much, here, take this*I hand her a piece of paper* If you do get in some trouble radio me on that signal*I turn to walk out* Oh and erm thanks again.

Thanks and your welcome, stay shiny*I watch him leave and fold the piece of paper up and put it in my pocket*

The Zones don't get any easier do they?

Sadly no...

[Neon Sky]

*It was early, must of been about 3 am, a couple more Killjoys came and left asking for the obvious; Food and water, luckily enough we've got lots of that. Neon was asleep on the sofa I was outside leaning against the open door finishing a cigarette and keeping a look out for Dracs. I knew deep down it'd only be a matter of time before they came here. There was the sound of movement from inside*

Midnight?

Out here I'll be in shortly, why don't you use the beds insted of that sofa?

Hmm *I was to tired to use words but I took her advice and made my way to one of the bedrooms*

*With one last pull I flick the cigarette away closing the door behind me as I walk inside* I guess you'll do*I say to the sofa as I lay down on top of it. This way I'll have a better chance to listen out for anyone wanting to come in*

[Neon Sky]

*I wake up to the sound of white noise coming through the radio, the sun was just starting to rise aswell. I let out a yawn and streach my arms out* Sky, you up yet? *I hear the sound of movement from the kitchen hoping it is her*

Yeah, just cooking us some breakfast... Oh and we're running out of bacon. *I light the stove and grab a frying pan*

We'll have to try and get some more *I get up and unlock the door* Looks like we're in for a bit of rain...

*Whistling to self while cooking the bacon* No supply runs today then.

Yeah... Shame... *I put my hand on my holster and stare out into the desert*

[Neon Sky]

*The day passed slowly, no thanks to the rain but luckily it finally stopped and the sun decided to show itself* Do you have any idea when the next supply truck is passing through this area? *I turn and look at Sky who seems to be fiddling with her gun*

*I finish playing around with the gun and look at the map with all the time schedules for the Bli supply run* There's one leaving Battery in half an hour so it should reach Zone 2 about 4 O'clock.

That gives us a good couple of hours before we raid it then... Let's get our stuff ready *I walk into the back room and throw a bag towards Sky and I fill mine with ammo and a couple of spike traps* Grab what you need. I'll get the bikes started. *I smile at her and walk out the back door*

[Neon Sky]

*I catch the bag and place it on the table in front of me. Reloading my gun I put it in its holster, I look around for what I would need to bring; some batterys, medi kit, handcuffs"Don't ask me how we got them"I zip my bag up and grab a couple of helmets on the way out locking the door behind me*

*The bike roars to life as Sky passes me a helmet* You ready? *She nods climbing on the back of the bike* Let's have some fun! *I accelerate and the bike goes flying down the road leaving the shop to be a spec in the mirror*

*I nearly fall off when Midnight pulls away forgeting how fast the bike was. I lean forward and shout in her ear* The perfect place for a raid is just up ahead. *I point towards a giant rock next to the side of the road and in no time we reach it. Midnight hides the bike behind the rock while I set up and bury the spike traps in the road* Now we wait...

...Yeah... Do you, erm... Wanna play eye spy?

[Neon Sky]

I spy with my little eye something begining with....... S! *I look at Sky who dosn't seem to be enjoying this game as much as me*

*Sigh* Erm... Truck!

Huh, truck dosn't begin with S the heat hasn't got to you has it? *I lean forward and place my hand on her forehead and as soon as I do she slaps it away*

No the heat hasn't got to my head, the truck's coming *I point towards the truck appearing up the road, it wasn't as big as the others but it was big enough to hold the right amount of supplys we needed.* Let's go!

*I got up and hid behind the rock with Sky shortly following* Masks up and guns out *I grab my gun and hold it upright peaking around the corner waiting for the truck to hit the hidden spike traps* You Ready? *I hold her hand getting a bit nervous. She just nods at me and I look back towards the road*

[Neon Sky]

*After a small fight with some Dracs we was the only two people on the road. Leaning up against the side of the truck finishing a cigarette I hear Sky moving inside the truck*

Well we have enough food to last another 3 months, loads of ammo, medical equipment, clothes , for some reason a microwave, gasoline and some random repair parts and tools. *I hop out of the truck and take a look at the tires* Luckily enough for us the spike trap only popped one tire, so we can replace it with the spare and drive the truck back.

Perfect, well let's get this thing back on the road. *After about twenty minutes we get the spare tire on and working. I grabbed a bottle of water from one of the supply boxes and took a sip* So, who's drving? *I look down at Sky who's clearly exhausted sat on the floor with her back against the truck*

You can, you know how much I love riding that thing *I point towards the bike feel a huge grin spread across my face at the thought of driving it* Plus it's faster anyway.

Okay then.*I start to walk off when I look over my shoulder and realize she hasn't moved* Well you gonna do something already? Or roast in the sun?

Roasting ain't that bad.*I smile when Midnight's empty bottle bounced of my head* Okay, okay I'll get up already, jeez.*I poke my tounge at her as I walk towards the bike*

[Neon Sky]

*Driving back to the shop with Midnight shortly following in the truck, I see something that I'd hoped I never would.* Shit!*I slam on the brakes and hear the screech of Midnight doing the same behind me, praying the truck don't hit me*

*I stop just short of hitting Sky. I lean out the window so she can hear me* Fuck Sky I could of killed you! What made you stop like that anyway? *I look towards where she's pointing* Great... *The shop was surounded by Dracs.* Come on, let's get out of here.*I feel my eyes start to tear up. That was our home, it was where we had survived this whole time*

*I drive round to the side of the truck and pull my helmet up* So... Where to now? *I knew this day would come but I wasn't prepared for it*

I don't know. Far away from here, far from the city. Let's head out towards Zone 6 I'll radio out and see if there's a safe house within our area.*I start looking around the truck for a radio*

North it is then.*I put my hemet back on and drive behind the truck waiting for Midnight to follow. When she does I speed away*

*Radio* Look alive Killjoys Midnight Smoke and Neon Sky here, our safe house in zone 2 has been overrun by Dracs, we're heading towards Zone 6 driving north so if there's anyone around that area with a safe house we'd love it if you called back. We have a BLI supply truck with two to three months worth of supplys as well. We'll be waiting. Stay shiny.

[Neon Sky]

*After what seems to be years of driving I see Sky pull over to the side of the road. I stop next to her and wind down the window* What's up sis?

Well the bike finally ran out of petrol...*I hop of the bike and put it on it's stand.* Where are we anyway?

Erm Somwhere between Zones 4 and 5, I have half a tank left in this thing, hop in.

Are you mad!? I can't leave my bike... Ever! *Leaving the helmet on the seat I run round to the back of the truck* There's got to be some petrol in here right? *I open up the back and start searching*

*I roll my eyes forgetting Skys eternal love for that bike* Just try and find some quickly I hate waiting on the main road Dracs could pass at any minute.

Yeah, yeah I hear ya' Dracs and stuff. Aha! Got some.*I find a small can of petrol, a perfect amount to fill my baby up. After filling the bike up I toss the can away and the bike roars to life* See have you heard her, she's to precious to leave behind.

Yeah okay whatever. Onward my dear. *Hopefully we'll find somewhere to crash soon I've never driven this much in my life. I wait for Sky to pull back onto the road and start following her*

[Neon Sky]

*I did the only thing that seemed logical at the time, run. I hoped on my bike and left the city coming back to the only other place I know, the shop. I felt bad about leaving Boots so I left him a note explaining what I knew.*
*I pull up behind the shop and jump off the bike. As I walk inside I remember what happend when we left, the Dracs raided it... The place was a mess nothing was left no food, water, ammo, guns, nothing. I walk into the middle of the shop, fall to my knees and begin to cry.*

[Neon Sky]

*I must of fallen asleep 'cause I wake up to the rising sun. I needed to do something I wanted my sister back, I wanted to see Bli burn, but I couldn't do anything not know not on my own. I wasn't an inexpirenced fighter but noone is good enough to be a one man army.*
*I pack up whatever seems to be decent; A few spare batterys, I find a Drac gun which will be painted, a canteen with water and a change of clothes. I grab everything stuff it all into a bag and walk out the back towards my bike, I send out another transmission*
*Rb*Neon Sky here, I've just ran from the city after my sister had been captured, the place I was staying in had been raided by Drcas and there's nothing left. I'm traveling around Zone 2 on motorbike, it's be great to hear from any other Killjoys in the area. Sky out.

[Neon Sky]

*I decide to stay in the shop (mainly 'cause I have nowhere else to go) and start cleaning up the place, sweeping all the broken objects into a corner, re-orginizing the shelf, etc. I didn't realise how hard this would be on my own and in my anger I launch a glass object at the wall that shatters into pieces.* Fuck this!. *I walk out the back ,grabbing a bat on the way through, to where the stolen Drac van was hidden. I look at the face on the side and shout at it.* This is all your fault! You took my sister away from me! *I run up to the van and start smashing it up. About half an hour passes and I walk back inside, my anger all soaked up by the now trashed van.*

[Bullet Ringer]

*Rb*This is Bullet Ringer trying to contact Neon Sky, we heard you're transmission and we're coming to help you, but we kinda need to know where you are first.
