Scenarios

Tidbit #1

I enter an alleyway, my partner right beside me. I lean against the wall and try to regain my breath. My partner crouches by the entrance to the alley, keeping watch. We can't stay here for long. He's coming. We have to get out of Endromidus. We might have a chance then. "Come on. We gotta keep moving." I say. "I agree. This way. I know a way out of the city other than through the gates. The guards are going to be on high alert, so they won't let us through." He explains. I nod. I follow him through town, sticking to alleys when we can. Finally South Wall comes into view. We're almost there. Suddenly a dart clicks against the wall right in front of me. We both stop and dive into cover. For me that's behind a silver metal trash can. He's found us. "What do we do now!?" I whisper. "I don't know, I don't know!" He whispers back. Suddenly a person appears in between our hiding spots, looking directly at me. Protector Joey. He's holding a tranquilizer pistol. I jump up and swing my fist at him. He parries, swinging the gun at my head. I jump back, narrowly avoiding being knocked out. I glance over Joey's shoulder and see my parter preparing to hit him in the head with a trash can lid. Suddenly Joey disappears, reappearing behind my parter. He shoots him in the leg, the tranquilizer taking effect immediately. He drops to the ground, unconscious. I turn and run, but I feel a prick in my arm and suddenly feel my limbs stop working. I fall forward, just barely twisting in time to land on my back. I look up and see Protector Joey standing above me. Why did I think I could get away with that? I fall into unconsciousness.

This is what it's like for fugitives in Endromidus. They don't last long. Moral of the story: Follow the treaty, obey the laws, and you'll be fine. Disregard either, and Joey will find you.
