Welcome to SDN (Starling) City. This is a once great forum city, whose glory days are behind it. All the residents rue the deterioration of the city; some recall the glory days when all was the "best ever", whether the restaurants, the posts by old-timers, the WW games, whatever... it was all better in the past. Now the city is overrun by pre-vet students deliquents, who prey on the older residents, until they can't take it anymore and are driven out of the city. There are still a few brave old-timers who think that all is not lost, that perhaps things can be turned around. We begin our story by checking in on a meeting of these stalwarts of respectability..
<Six people are in a conference room in a sky scraper in SDN City, we can only see the back of the head of the person sitting at the head of the table. Four others are identifiable seated around him in a heated discussion, one other is standing off to the side quietly, sipping a latte, and looking out the window at what appears to be a vibrant city below>
WTF: "I know things have gone downhill, but what do you expect ME to do about it. These rugrats are uncontrollable"
Fonz: "Why don't we ask @Lee to update the city. A massive reconstructions, give the city a facelift. What could go wrong? "
Nutmeg: "I have analyzed these people, you haven't got a clue. You can't just rush in and solve the problem. This requires patience, and careful planning, acts I am not sure you are capable of. I say the problem here is one of politics. These people need to be properly motivated to behave well."
JDH: "I don't think these people can be saved. Anarchy is coming. I am just gonna dig my bunker a little deeper, and order more weapons. I give up. They are all panzies anyway and refuse to agree with anything I tell them. "
< @[B]twelvetigers[/B] opens the door to the conference room, looks around at all the sour faces, quickly mumbles "sorry, wrong room" and quickly departs the building and is not seen again. >
Man sitting at head of table("head man"): "Ladies and gentlemen, I invited you here because you care about this city, you think it matters, and have not given up in its time of need. We have all been hurt by events in the past, I need not go into the details of all the devastation that has been wrought, what matters now is the future. Can we all agree on that?"
<there are varies sounds of assent, and what sounds like borborgymi coming from JDH's unfed body>
<the "head man" continues> "We have been dancing around the problem. We all know that it is thepre-vet forum Glades that needs to be cleaned out. We get rid of those low-lives and this city can regain its glory days. I know good people would return if they felt the glory days were returning. Hell I was talking to Severus the other day, and I guarantee you SEV, for one, would be back here in an instant. So this is what I propose: I say we KILL every single member of the city who does not live up to our high standards. WIPE THEM OUT. Then, we will finally have the city that we remember so fondly. "
<silence ensues after this bold pronouncement. The people sitting around the table look at each other, unsure how to proceed. Wolfspeaker, the secretary, comes in with tea, and drops the tray breaking the awkward silence... Fonz is the first to react">
Fonz: "look, these people aren't worth spit, but I am not sure even I can condone killing them. I wan't to class this joint up, but that is too extreme, even for me".
WTF: "I know some of these gals aren't the finest, but some of them are my friends. They aren't labratory rats to killed and dissected at our leisure, you have to be kidding".
Nutmeg: "Yeah, not a fan of genocide. Sorry. "
<Finally JDH is left. He is scratching his chin, clearly thinking it over. He looks around the room uncertain of his decision. He looks at Wolfspeaker and seems to suddenly come to a decision, but before he says anything, The woman with the latte takes out a garrote and wraps it around wolfspeaker's throat and kills her. @[B]wolfspeaker[/B] is dead . "I always wanted to do that," she says, "not to mention, she dropped our expensive china." She puts down her latte and walks over to the head of the desk, politely kisses the man there, and then walks out of the room. JDH is a bit taken aback by the ruthlessness of this murder, and speaks up…">
JDH: "You know I abhor these scum-bags, and I do believe that many problems can be solved with guns, but I am not sure that I can condone this course of action. I mean, who is going to decide who lives and who dies? It is not so easy to classify who has failed this city and who has helped it."
Head Man: "Why I will decide, of course, isn't that obvious. I am the one with the balls to come up with this plan, I am the one with the backbone to follow it through. "
JDH: "Sorry, I don't trust anyone making decisions for me. As much as I want the old days back, this is a line I won't cross!"
Head man: "How disappointing. I thought of all the fine citizens of our city, I could at least count on you 4 for support. -<shakes his head> Well sometimes, sacrfices must be made for the good of this city, and I know you all would be willing to make some sacrifices for the cause, no? <he pushes a button on his chair, and 8 men enter wearing masks from hidden alcoves all around the room carrying assault rifles> If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. You really should have agreed to help us solve this problem!"
<The head man gets up and walks out without turning around. JDH is reaching slowly inside his overcoat, when Fonz abruptly stands up>
Fonz: ""**** this ***** I'm outta here. "
<Fonz straps on a parachute and starts to run towards the window. Right before he jumps through a volley of bullets smashes into him, he crashes through the window which should be shatterproof - but since it was made by a cheating bastard in Starling city it shatters -, his chute opens automatically and gently carries his dead, bulllet-ridden corpse to the ground. As soon as the gunfire starts JDH pulls a sawed-off shotgun he just happened to be carrying out and swings it around, but alas, being armed is not always a defense against death when you are outnumbered 8 to 1, and he too is shot death. >
WTF <looks at Nutmeg and says>: "A life this amazing has to end sometime",
<Nutmeg just slowly nods his head as if to say "I told you so" as they are each plastered with way more bullets than were necessary.>
@alfonzarel, @WhtsThFrequency , @Nutmeg, and @jdh71 have been killed.
After the guns quieted, Allieh came running into the room, "Hey what's all the commotion…"
<she is immediately killed with a single shot to the head. Late to the party, but still got her fill.>
@[B]allieh8607[/B] is also dead.
News of the death of four of the most upstanding citizens of Starling City quickly runs through the city like a cloud of nerve gas. People panic, dogs and cats start sleeping together, chaos ensues. Martial law is declared. After the stores are all looted, and the government buildings ransacked, a few saner heads decide that the city needs someone as a figurehead to resolve disputes, and hopefully provide some information? An election must be held.
Cast your ballots. Some of you may not be eligible for election due to the vagaries of the electoral system, but that is NOT information you may disclose.
