Alex "Dragonsword" Johnson: private log 1. Wellp. This is a fine mess. Whatever happened to just worrying about grades and college cred? (Sighs) advents attacking a haven for about the third time this year. Well, not sure what I can do, but ill try my damndest. Local commas are blowing up about something called xcom and some kind of monster. Hope I'm not too late to help
Alex "Dragonsword" Johnson: private log 2: well. wasn't expecting that. For further reference, I got to the haven too late to actually be of any help in the fight. I did here, however, how a unit of special ops guys came down and kicked the aliens asses. they call themselves Xcom. sounds interesting. if I can find em again, maybe I can help them out. I may not be that good with a gun, but I'm sure I can cut down more than my fair share of aliens with my sword. think ill stay here for a bit, help the survivors get set up again. may the aliens really did a number on this place ( a voice calls out in the distance) well, looks like they need my help again.- Red Ranger, out"
Alexander "Dragonsword" Johnson, private log 3: I have no clue what that was, but I just saw a ship get shot down by advent. Damnit! Alright, time to get in gear. Who knows if there's still people alive over there. Mask on, blade strapped to my back, let's rock and roll. -Red ranger, out
Alex "Dragonsword" Johnson: private log #4
I have absolutely no clue what's going on. I follow the trail of smoke and find about a dozen advent troops surrounding the downed ship and I think:" why in the hell would they down their own ship? "But then I think: "maybe their examining it because something else shot it down? It's probable" I think, until I catch a glimpse of an old man hiding behind what used to be a wing. "Well shit." I think hiding behind a tree, the advent hadn't noticed me, even though my red armor stood out like a sore thumb. drawing my blade out of it's sheath on my back, I move toward the first set of troopers, a group of three, all with their backs turned. "good I think, that crash has them all distracted" I think. moving closer, I slice the throat of the trooper in the back of the group, its greenish blood covering my sword and my armor. the other two still hadn't noticed me yet, and I used that advantage to take down the trooper on the right of me. Again, its blood went everywhere, including on the remaing trooper. it turned toward me, opened it's mout to yell, and ate my sword though its teeth. " alright," I think, " three down, nine to go." and then I notice the two mecs standing by an officer. "shit!" I think, knowing I have nowhere enough firepower to take them both down. meanwhile the people (I can see four of them now, two girls, the old man, and a much younger looker man, must be a family of some kind, but for some reason the men are dressed up like advent) pressing my adavantage, I move toward the next group, three troopers and and officer. I whistle, which catches a troopers attention. I hide behind a really well placed rock, waiting till it came close... closer.. and when it was right next to me, I pounced, slicing its throat and chest in the same fluid movement. now my adrenaline is spiking, I unclip my one grenade and chuck it at the remaing advent. the explosion kills the troopers,but somehow the officer survives. tougher armour I quess. a well placed strike from my now bloo covered sowrd finished the job though. but the sound of the explosion alerted the mecs, and their remaing mortal officer. out of the corner of my eye, I see the people sneaking away from the crash, carrying the old man, who appears injured. "no time to deal with them", I think. I pull out my shot gun, and begin firing at the mecs. now, having only used my gun in extreme cases cuase I'm not a gun person to begin with, my first couple of shots only ding off the mecs armour. but my third shot by some stroke of luck, hits the mec right in its fuel tank, causing it to explode, and blow a huge chunck out of its mec buddy, immediately downing it. I pick up my sword again (I dropped it to use my gun) and rush the officer. I quess it must have panicked, seeing one guy take out both its metal friends, and the thing actually tried to run. having no time left and running low on ammo, I knew I couldn't let it call reinforcements. taking a leap of faith, I threw my sword at the officer, impaling it right though its alien heart. I walked over and noticed something odd lying on the ground next to it. it looked like a key of some kind, I figured maybe the key to the drophip it stood next to. breathing hard, covered in alien blood, I laughed. one guy, with a sword and afew shoutgun shells, managed to take out an entire battalion of advent troops. the people I spooted earlier walk up to me, and they all stare at me in wonder. I toss the key to the younger man, gesture to the dropship and say " any of you know how to fly this thing?"
Alex "Dragonsword" Johnson: private log five: "my hunt for the mysterious Xcom soldiers continues. as usual, I heard they saved another haven long before I got there. Those soldiers I rescued were nice enough to give me a ride over here, after I helped them steal an advent ship. (sidenote: maybe I should work on my advent, I don't think they understand my Italian or English very well, we almost got caught a few times. luckily we had a captive trooper who we forcibly removed the chip from, and subsequently used as our translator by pointing a gun at it's head. ) I heard reports of some kind of monster from the locales, a giant, ten-foot tall glob of pink, goopy flesh with long, black claws that emerged from the body of a civilian many had thought human. sounds nasty. hope I never run into one of them. As usual, ill help these guys out here until their set up again. -Red Ranger, out"
Alex "Dragonsword" Johnson private log 6: " it's been several weeks since that haven attack. in that time, I've moved around a lot, helping out resistance forces where I can. Even came across some kind of deserted advent facility. that was weird. there was a bunch of blood all over the place, but no corpses to be seen. it looked like it had been "storing" people in strange, green tanks and using them for something. notably, the blood of humans was spilled across the front door of the place. Weird. anyway, stealing another advent ship, (some strange type of modified jet that I have thus named the Ghost Rider) I took off in pursuit of xcom once more. apparently, the ship is experimental, becase while it only seat one or two people, it is far faster than any normal jet or dropship. it even accepted me as its piolt without trying to signal advent (a clear sign that the tracker hasn't been installed yet, or any security) Good thing I picked up some knowledge on how to fly these things from the dropship and one random resitance old guy who claims he flew a jet called raven-1 in the "old war" whatever that is. all I need to do know is catch up to them and hope they don't shoot me out of the sky. -Red Ranger, out"
Alex "Dragonsword" Johnson: private log 7: " alright. I've had it. I'm sick and tired of losing xcom's trail every time I try to find them. next time they show up, i'm following them. Advent still hasn't noticed that the Ghost rider's missing. I wonder what their plans were for it. I've given it some modifications, and now for some reason it looks like one of the old ufos people swore they saw during the old war. *sigh* well, if I can't find xcom, might as well hit advent hard and fast. I heard there's some kind of facility in construction, might go scout that out. Red Ranger, out"
Alex "Red Ranger" Johnson, private log #8: it would seem I was too late. again. xcom has finally been defeated, this time by advent, and it doesn't seem like their coming back any time soon. damnit all! and to make matters worse, my ship's been blown apart!. apparently, advent finally caught on, slipped onboard while I was off scouting, and planted a bomb on the engine. damn. now what to do I do?-Red Ranger, out
I'll post your logs now:
