The Ashen project

"Once upon a time, life used to be more simple, no war, no powers, no meteroids crashing on Earth wiping out part of the planet, actually Earth wasn't as peaceful as I'm making it out to be but still" "Wow thats so cool!" "How did we survive???" "Calm down class, calm down thats what this field trip is for" [[Everyone runs to get on the bus]]

"AH!" You scream afraid and you almost have a panic attack however you remember that you escaped that horrendous place You think throughly should you [[Sleep in]] [[Fight yourself awake]]

You decide to force yourself up and get ready, however you think to yourself that you should get ready by [[Get dressed]] [[Make breakfast]]

You decide to sleep in as it is 5 AM and your meeting up with the team in 5 hours anyway Suddenly you hear an alarm clock you decide to [[Continue to sleep in because the alarm can't tell me what to do!]] [[Wake up because you have an alarm for a reason]]

Once you fight yourself awake you get up and begin getting ready as you brush your teeth, change, you decide you have enough time to make a breakfast so you go out before you see your brother jumping you (set: $Name to (prompt: "Im watching you:", "Name")) "$Name !" Do you [[Let him tackle you, just for fun]] [[Dodge his tackle and make fun of his failed attempt to grab me]]

As you get up, you decide to take a slow start of the day so you go and make breakfast before getting ready since it is 5 AM so surely no one is awake You grab your ingredients such as eggs, bread, butter, etc and turn on the stove to heat up the pan As your cooking you hear sounds rummaging throughout the hall and wonder whats going on however you dont think anything of it as you crack the eggs in the pan Once you do, you start making omlettes thinking you should make some for your brother so the first omlette you make you put onto the side for your brother and make another for yourself [[However suddenly...]]

You snooze your alarm clock, falling asleep soon enough however once you wake you realize for the first time in forever, you were late in meeting up with the others meaning the others have already left, leaving you to go alone You rush out [[alone]]

You wake up and realize you have 20 minutes to get ready

You get tackled by your brother surprised and you drop the pan you were using to create omlettes "I am going to kill you, Bisawly" You say as you hit him with your fists however you dont realize that the food has caught on fire until it's too late "MY FOOD!!!!" (set: $Name to (prompt: "Im watching you:", "Name")) "I'm sorry $Name !" Bisawly says however you force him to clean after you put out the fire "Bisawly [[what is wrong with you!?!?!]]"

You say as you hitting him multiple of times before he begs you to stop "Jeseus christ $Name your so mean nowadays that hurts!" "Maybe I wouldn't be if you werent such an idiot! Considering the fact the house almost burnt down because of your stupid shenanigans!" [[You give the food you made for him to him and take the burnt food and eat it]]

"Brother! Thank you!" Your brother says before scarfing it down You pick at your burnt food before deciding to throw it away You leave for you mission area however you realize that someone else is there, someone you don't recognize but do you [[Wave hi to them, try to be friendly]] [[Ignore them, who even is that???]]

You let him tackle you because you know he means no harm and you didn't have to deal with He laughs in your face "Finally I caught you off guard!!!!" "Brother its my birthday! Can I join you on your mission???" [[Yea no]] [[No]]

You laugh at him as he falls face flat looking like an idiot, however being the nice sibling you are, you help him up (set: $Name to (prompt: "Im watching you:", "Name")) "Thanks $Name ! This is the first time you've ever been nice to me but still can't you be less harsh???" "Yeah dont get too used to that" You say as you decide to skip breakfast after that stunt, you just dont feel like cooking anymore Well since thats out of the way, can I go on the espedition??? Its my birthday today which means I just turned 18! So since I turned 18 can I pleaseee join you? [[No]] [[Yea no]]

You give him a straightforward answer saying no, not wanting him to get hurt He argues with you but you quickly not wanting him to see the monstrosities of the outside world You leave for you mission area however you realize that someone else is there, someone you don't recognize but do you [[Wave hi to them, try to be friendly]] [[Ignore them, who even is that???]]

You exaggerate your "yea" giving your brother hope however you quickly shut it down "What makes you think you can go I dont care if your of age, your too innocent and have yet to see the horrendus outside world" "BUT PLEASE BROTHER MY POWER WOULD BE PERFECT" "What does "no" mean???" "...that i cant go...." he grumbles and goes to his room You leave for you mission area however you realize that someone else is there, someone you don't recognize but do you [[Wave hi to them, try to be friendly]] [[Ignore them, who even is that???]]

You waited for way too long, it may be 10 AM but still! They should have already gotten here. You get ready to leave however you hear them (set: $Name to (prompt: "Tell me the truth", "Name")) "Hi $Name did you miss me?" "No I didn't Kori, I still don't get why you just dont stay in the city to go on shopping sprees...especially for mission days" I say muttering the last part "Also why do you need to do this, we do this for money, with your power you could easily survive the city without this job so why [[join]]?"

"Thats because shes bored and already has everything she needs in those stores" Asji says, coming in sighing due to Kori's antics Asji grabs onto Kori befor she goes running off. "Aren't you going to let Bisawly join us for today, they have been practicing their power for such a long time and it would be really helpful if we face any powerful foes" Asji says You reply saying that [[It's for his own safety]] [[He just shouldn't]]

"He still doesn't understand, no one truly preps you for this so until its a much more calmer day were the monsters aren't as dangerous I'll let him out. Now lets go before Kori jumps out the door like a dog loving walks" "DON'T COMPARE ME TO A DAMN DOG YOU LITTLE PIECE OF SH-" Asji quickly shuts her up and grabs her to make sure she can't leap at me "Annnnddd we're shutting this down, stop cursing Kori you need to watch your launguage Bisawly is still watching, I'm correct $Name aren't I?" I check the corner and see Bisawly still there watching and I intimidate him enough to make him [[leave]]

"He just shouldn't now lets head out before Kori jumps out the door like a dog loving walks" "DON'T COMPARE ME TO A DAMN DOG YOU LITTLE PIECE OF SH-" Asji quickly shuts her up and grabs her to make sure she can't leap at me "Annnnddd we're shutting this down, stop cursing Kori you need to watch your launguage Bisawly is still watching, I'm correct $Name aren't I?" I check the corner and see Bisawly still there watching and I intimidate him enough to make him [[leave]]

Before you leave, you hear something on the speakers, someone is trying to say something Do you [[Stay maybe the information is important?]] [[Ignore it! We need to do our job!]]

You died, maybe you should have gotten the information before you left, idiot! Wait whats that? Is it glowing?

You realize that its Rae “Rae what’s going on outside?” ”What am I a weather forecast person where I go “Howdy there team would you look at the weather today it’s so infectious and filled with monsters! And to the next day-“ ”Rae seriously, what's the status of the outside?” ”Dont interrupt me $Name! But in all seriousness maybe a bit of monsters but today’s the day to wear a mask as a caution since there’s particles in the air, it's also spreading fast so don’t fully rely on [[Kori]]”

Once hes gone Asji speaks "He's still a kid, you shouldn't let him learn curse words!" "Oh please! He's old enough to learn curse words!" You speak up "I suggest you dont teach him curse words otherwise I shall destroy everything you have including all of your computers" I crack my knuckles to show that I mean to go through with this threat and to also knock Kori unconcious for her stupid idea "Yeesh you're still a party pooper" Kori says backing away "oh well now CAN WE PLEASE GO BEFORE I ACTUALLY JUMP OUT THE WINDOW????" "Yes yes Kori we're going now" Asji [[says]]

As soon as Asji says that, they start pushing us out the door and I ensure Bisawly doesnt dare to join us not wanting him to be in trouble Before we leave though you hear something on the speakers so we decide to [[Stay maybe the information is important?]] [[Ignore it! We need to do our job!]]

You quickly look away not wanting to interact with them however they seem ecstatic...how weird... You decide to wait for them Wait and Wait HOW MUCH LONGER ARE THEY GONNA TAKE?!?! [[5 hours later]]

You wave hi to them and they blush...how weird you decide to go to your meeting room and wait for them Wait and Wait DAMN HOW LONG THEY GONNA TAKE??? [[5 hours later]]

”Yes yes Rae sometimes I think you act like a fun dad where they can and will play around with things but when it comes to protecting their the best” ”First of all I'd be a fun MOM and I think you should go now, Koris already jumped out the door with her gas mask” ”SHOOT ASJI RUN AFTER HER THANKS RAE” ”No problem $Name” Asji runs after Kori grabbing the mask however you sigh knowing Kori would forget her stuff so I grab her stuff for [[her]].

”A simple “no” could have sufficed instead of-KORI GET DOWN FROM THERE” You say as you grab your knife and cut your hand to create a lasso to drag Kori down from climbing the hoard of monsters “I GET THAT YOU HAVE YOUR POWER THAT MAKES YOU IMMUNE BUT THAT DOESN’T MEAN THE ARMOR CANT BREAK NOW STOP BEING A DUMBASS” ”Xperia calm down I get your concern but Kori and you do this every expedition we have together” You rub my forehead getting irritated easily due to her shenanigans "That's because she’s a dumbass” ”Kori, can you create a bandage for $Name?” Asji grabs onto your hand to stop you from getting away ”Yeah I’ve got you” Kori brings out her computer and types in a command which replace a small portion of air to create a whole first aid kit and takes the bandages out to bandage my [[hand ]]

“Hey Rae before I leave, when should we be expecting to come back after the expedition?” ”Maybe at 9 PM and yes I’m aware it’s 10 AM right now but you know Kori will treat you guys to good food as well on your expeditions” you sigh and leave handing Kori her backpack with computers to make her clean up the air. “Hey Kori I have a question” ”Sure ask Asji” ”Why can’t you just, you know, replace the world for a post-apocalyptic world instead? With your power its possible and it’d be so much better and we wouldn’t have to live like this” ”Well Asji first of all I need to get the proportions correct otherwise I could destroy the world, second of all my power doesn't reach that far however eventually ill be able to just with more [[practice]]”

“Jesus Christ you guys are over reacting I’m-“ Your immediately shut up as Asji puts his hands on my mouth. “$Name we are not doing this again the last mission you had without Kori you almost bled out to save us from that monster even though we could have contacted Kori to save us now Rae has made it so Kori must always be with you when we’re going out for expeditions” I sigh grumbling even though it's ridiculous but apologizing “sorry...I'll do better next time alright?” ”I might add that I hated seeing you on the brink of death plus you need better improvement on your powers” I grumble at Kori knowing when she gets serious she means [[it]].

“Alright enough of that, lets go now we need to gather more food especially seeds for plants, Asji look for resources and Kori we’re going to ensure the seeds aren’t affected so please don’t break your computer unless you brought a replacement” Kori smirks and takes out 3 replacement computers “Don’t worry I’m always stacked up” Kori changes the air and helps clear out the monsters before we go searching for supplies. You find some seed packets of things you barely ever see grow anymore and toss it in your bag and continue exploring. As you search around you find it quite amusing that the monsters try to hide so you get rid of them by cutting through them with your knife without using your powers. I guess the practice really did pay off. You rip through the monsters easily, blood spraying on my armor that you wore. You take out the empty bags your brought and stuff some supplies I find, however what I find next is shocking…it’s clearly a-“XPERIA GET OVER HERE KORI IS MISSING” Again??????? Oh my fucking god.
