[OPEN] Earthquake Event

Characters: OPEN
Location: Death City
Rating: Varied
Time: Jan 22
Description: OOC post here.



It's early in the morning -- just after morning training -- when the ground beneath Death City shakes violently in what most of you might recognize as an earthquake. It's not a particularly huge one for the more experienced of the guests, but it sends cracks shooting through the cobblestoned ground of Death City and up the sides of some buildings. A small handful of structures, mostly those that have been abandoned in the course of this war or the very old ones, take the most damage and topple over or crumble at their foundations.

The earthquake lasts no more than half a minute, but the vibrations and aftershocks last through the day. Death City's streets become full of holes, from those the size of apples to what could be described as deep ditches. The greatest damage, however, is the commercial sector, which becomes flooded as the waterways take damage and spill water into the streets. Shibusen's alarms blare out and quick, urgent orders to fix the waterways and search for the injured or anyone trapped in rubble filter in through all networks.

This in-game day will last a week irl.

[Shibuya Yuuri + Others] [Wherever you need him!] [Open]

[The moment that the earthquake hit, Yuuri had scrambled to get himself and anyone else to safety. When it had settled down, his eyes were wide with worry and concern as he glanced around]

Is everyone alright?!
tanks: (Grit your teeth and go.)

[personal profile] tanks 2012-01-31 10:01 pm (UTC)(link)
The hell was that?!

[Max looks up at the buildings shaking violently, then once it ended, moves to brush some of the debris off his shoulder.]

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-01 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
[The ground was still lightly trembling even as Yuuri tried to get his legs back under him. That was when he caught sight of the huge man just up ahead. Eyes wide, he couldn't help but wonder if that was actually a man or something else. He was huge!

He shook his head to clear his thoughts.]

I-I think it was an earthquake! Are you alright?
tanks: (Let's calculate.)

[personal profile] tanks 2012-02-02 12:55 am (UTC)(link)
[He looks around to see where the voice was coming from. He then spotted someone behind him, looking startled. Max took that to be from the earthquake, since he certainly wasn't expect it. Though for a big guy like him, he barely felt any of that.]

I'm good... I think. What about you?

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-02 03:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank goodness! [He's definitely relieved when the large man told him that he was alright, but he's still worried about everyone else in the city as well.] Eh? Oh! Yeah! I'm fine.

Death City's never had an earthquake since I got here. [Worried, he looked around at the damaged buildings around.] We should go and check on the others, to see if they're alright.

[ooc: if you like, we can just make up some random NPCs for them to help!]
tanks: (Let's calculate.)

[personal profile] tanks 2012-02-02 05:09 pm (UTC)(link)
Sounds like a plan! The earthquake look like it did a lot of structural damage.

[He looks around, wondering whether it would be appropriate to lift this guy he barely knew on to his shoulders so that they could do proper surveillance.]

We gotta move out otherwise it'll be too late to do anything without heavy machinery.

[ooc: yep, sounds good to me!]

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-02 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah it does! [The thought that the buildings might collapse under the strain was worrying, to say the least, and he wants to do what he can.]

[That sounded like a good plan. What a scrawny little kid like himself could do, he wasn't sure, but Yuuri wouldn't ever let that stop him.]

Mmhm! Let's go! [Yuuri glanced up at the towering man before he paused.] I'm Yuuri, by the way.
tanks: (Chin up guys.)

[personal profile] tanks 2012-02-04 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
Max.

[He nods his head to Yuuri in greeting, acknowledging him to be the person he was going to work with in this particular endeavour. He seemed good natured at the very least.]

Okay, here's what we'll do. We're gonna go do a recon of the area - you're smaller than me so you can probably see things at street level better. If you can see anybody or hear anyone, I can get in there and do the heavy lifting.

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-04 03:00 pm (UTC)(link)
Alright, that sounds good! [That was something that Yuuri could definitely do! Although the thought that he couldn't see as well on street level as he could left the young king in awe of Max's size.]

Let's go! [Worried about everyone's safety, Yuuri is instantly off down the street trying to find anyone who might need help.] Ooowaaah I didn't even know that this place could get earthquakes!
tanks: (Grit your teeth and go.)

[personal profile] tanks 2012-02-04 09:49 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't know either...

[He follows Yuuri quickly, but his progress is impeded ever so slightly by the amount of debris and general destruction that the earthquake caused.

His ears pick up the shouts of someone yelling for help from a building that had collapsed, and he stops. Yep, definitely people.]


Hey! Yuuri! I think I can hear people just up ahead!

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-07 10:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[He's scrambling his way up over the cracks and debris. Moving as quickly as he could, Yuuri came to an abrupt stop at Max's call. Peering up at the large man, he then glanced over towards the building area that was pointed out. He could hear the people as well!]

I can hear them too! We need to go help them.
kingofdisney: (Okay Donald you can let go now)

Re: [Shibuya Yuuri + Others] [Wherever you need him!] [Open]

[personal profile] kingofdisney 2012-02-01 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm alright. Seems like part of the city isn't though.

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-02 03:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Micky! I'm glad that you're alright! [The relief is evident on his face before he glanced at the buildings around them.]

Aaa yeah, you're right about that. We need to see if anyone else needs help. [He's worried about Wolfram and everyone, but he couldn't put off the needs of someone else if he happened to pass them by.]
kingofdisney: (smile)

[personal profile] kingofdisney 2012-02-03 06:41 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks Yuuri.

And you're right. I'm going to do everything I can to help out. Were you planning on going to help out in any district in particular?

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-03 03:24 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll probably make my way over to the clinic. Hopefully no one's hurt too badly--- [There's the sound of a few crumbling bricks from the buildings around them, along with the distant sound of a building collapsing in the background.]

[He really hoped that no one was in those buildings. With his expression deepening with worry, he glanced back at the famous mouse.] We've got to make sure no one was in it!

[ooc: it's just one of the empty buildings that collapsed, but we can always have some injured/trapped people around the area or whatnot if you're interested?"
kingofdisney: (Emoing)

[personal profile] kingofdisney 2012-02-05 04:24 pm (UTC)(link)
*Mickey nodded.*

Good idea. I'll see you sometime...

*And then the building collapsed. Mickey was already running before Yuuri could mention helping people there.*

(ooc: either or is fine with me)

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-07 10:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[The collapsing building had his heart jumping in panic, and he only watched for a moment as Mickey ran off before he took off right towards the building seeing if he could help.]
kingofdisney: (Starseeker)

[personal profile] kingofdisney 2012-02-09 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
*Mickey ran up to the building, already moving his hands to grasp at some of the rubble to pull it aside.*

Can anyone hear me!?

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-09 02:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[Yuuri wasn't far behind, and he ran up another pile of debris looking for anyone.] Call out if you can!

[There was a call of someone near where Mickey was, and it caused Yuuri to instantly glance over as he called out.] That wasn't you, was it?!
kingofdisney: (Time to fight)

I have to stop forgetting about character's tags

[personal profile] kingofdisney 2012-02-16 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
No, it wasn't!

*And now Mickey is frantically searching near where he heard the call, moving his hands to start trying to pull some of the rubble away.

It takes a while, and it's pretty heavy, but he does eventually manage to move one of the pieces of former building. It's not long before he starts moving to grab another piece.*
