Ambience



Alex walked forwards. The sign above the portal this time said Ambience. He walked through the prtal and realized where he was. The pictures back in the office, he had seen one which looked like this landscape with three people in it, the same people he met in the office and had forced him into halfquake. He was on the Sadistic Plains. He brought the crossbow off his back as he remembered the slaves he had seen in the pictures. He scanned the landscape through the scope on the crossbow, occasionally shooting a bolt into a distant slave. Once he was sure that he had cleared the lower field he walked towards the hill across the field. He sniped a slave standing on the hill before proceeding up the ramp.

He ran up the hill and realized that the slaves were now on both sides of him and charging to fire. He ran for an archway on the hill, then threw himself at the ground as the electricity passed over his head. As he hit the ground, he managed to pick up a diary lying in front of the arch. He shot one of the slaves as he slipped the page into his pocket. He wasted no time as he entered the portal in the arch. While he was travelling through teleport to the next plain, he pulled out the page and began to read it.

Alex did not have time to try to understand what this meant, as at this point he was entering the next fieldof the sadistic plains. Immediately a slave began charging up. Alex shot a bolt into its heart before it could fire. To avoid the other slaves which were now running towards him, Alex climbed up some steps, realizing that these slaves could not climb easily. He had a look around at the top of the hill and realized it was some kind of classroom. The only word on the blackboard said Sadism. He left the room and ran for a way down,as by now the slaves had reached the top of the steps and were hunting for him. After shooting for some more slaves,Alex found himself in another portal.

The next field was also a case of running through and shooting slaves. Alex managed to pick up several clips of crossbow ammo while he shot and ran. He entered the next archway and felt a force trying to pull the crossbow away from him. He tried to get a tighter grip on it, but it was jerked out of his hand, nearly breaking his wrist. He fell out of the portal onto another field, looked up, and found himself face to face with MS.

Alex began to clench his fists, but before he could act his attention was drawn by a glowing green sword which was stuck into the top of a small pedestal on a hill. MS began to speak. "This is the sword of Sadism." He indicated the sword on the hill. "As long as you use it, you will gain nearly unlimited health and power. That means, you live longer, we stay stronger." The Sadists stood watching as Alex walked up to the sword and pulled it out of the pedestal. Immediately he felt a surge of energy. He turned away from the field and walked into the portal behind it.

Several slaves ran straight at Alex and began to charge up to attack. He ran straight at them, slicing two of them in half before they were able to fire. Shots hit his chest, and he fell, then noticed that the burns were healing. After a second, the skin was repaired, and Alex was fighting again, covering the artificial field with the remains of the slave army. He eventually found himself on top of a hill. Three slaves came at him. He slashed one of them, then another one shot at him, knocking the sword out of his hands. He fought off the third as it scratched his face. He waited for the other slave to charge, then he swung round. The bolt of energy from the slave hit the slave that was clawing Alex and it fell. Alex quickly recovered from the electric shock and ran for the slave. It failed to raise its claws quick enough. He knocked it off balance and watched as it staggered backwards holding its eye where Alex had hit it. Before Alex could react it had fallen off the hill down a steep drop. Alex heard the crunching sound as it hit the ground below.

Alex recovered the sword of sadism, and noticed another diary page beside the hilt. He read it before adding it to the entries already in his pocket.


Alex realized what this meant. Tom had surrendered to the Sadists. He had given up the fight and had decided to accept the offer, and was probably ready to kill Alex as he proceeded. Alex looked over at the central area of the field. He jumped across and examined the castle on it. He took a breath and walked in. At first he saw nothing but a few decorative structures, then he noticed the military-type person standing between him and the portal.

"Tom?" The grunt turned around. Alex noticed the sub-machine gun in his hands. He then looked at the sword in his own.

"Not nice, is it? The feeling of helplessness. You know you don't stand a chance. Do you not realise what this is? The sadists offered me a chance to survive, so I accepted. Did they give you a chance?"

"Murther did, right before I ended up in this place. I was against Halfquake already, so I declined. Next thing I know, I am here."

"You should have accepted the offer. Then I wouldn't be forced to kill you now."

"I was not going to accept a life of accursed Sadism."

"Careful what you say, remember who has the gun. I doubt that the sword you hold in your hands will protect you from bullets."

"I think otherwise. This happens to be the sword of Sadism."

"Grenades then." Tom produced a hand grenade from his pocket and pulled the pin. "Time to die Viper. You should have accepted Murthers offer." He threw the grenade. Viper dived away from it as it it the wall and exploded. Tom opened fire with the machine gun.

Bullets tore through Alex' skin. He could feel it regenerating. Tom stopped to reload. Alex ran at him with the sword and took several swings at him with it. Two of them scored hits, barely scratching the armour Tom was wearing. Tom ran off dropping a grenade behind him. Alex retreated from its explosion. More grenades came flying over the constructions. Alex ran between the constructions until he could see Tom. Bullets broke chunks off the structure. He dived behind another and made his way round behind Tom. A grenade exploded behind him.

Alex was thrown off his feet straight towards Tom, who as raised a knife. He aimed his sword forwards, determined to take out Tom. Both weapons scored hits. Tom fell dead as Alex sat by one of the structures waiting for the sword to regenerate the stab wound.

Once he had regenerated, Alex walked towards Toms corpse. He pulled the gun out of the dead hands and walked into the new teleport. Immediately he found himself without any weapons apart from the sword of sadism.
