[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.

[Yuuri was definitely glad to hear that! He came skidding next to help his friend as Bakura tried to get up. Hearing the creaking sounds, he made a questioning one of his own before peering up to see that parts of the building was breaking off and coming right down towards him.]


EEEeeeeeeh!!! [He screeched before reaching forward to grab hold of Bakura tightly and, if he was lucky enough, use what strength he had to launch them both out of the way.]
shiromadoushi: (Eeeeeeeeeeh?!)

Suucks. Also, I keep typoing "Yuuri" and "Yuugi" ^^;;;; SLIGHT difference :D

[[Bakura blinked once at Yuuri's sudden change in expression before turning and echoing his friends exclamation. Yuuri's reflexes were thankfully faster than his own so before Bakura could attempt to scramble, he was already being hauled, and his own efforts aiding Yuuri's own, leaving them just inches from the crumbling masonry as it came crashing down.

A cloud of dust wafted up almost in seeming slow motion as the rush of sound passed, replaced by a few clacks of stone clattering down the pile, barely heard over the pounding of Bakura's heart in his ears as he clung tightly to his friend.]]

lol I can see how that can be done xD I keep typing the opposite Yu(u)ri whenever I swap them xD

[They had barely made it out of there as they narrowly escaped the falling debris. Yuuri did everything he could to keep them upright, even if he did stumble and almost fall over, but he managed to prevent that at least even as they were surrounded by a huge cloud of dust.

He coughed to expel the dust he'd breathed in before checking to see if his friend was alright.]

You're not hurt anywhere, are you?
shiromadoushi: (Sigh)

It's what your fingers are used to! :D

[[Ever so slowly, the tension began to drain out of Bakura like steam escaping. Safe. For now.]]

I don't think so... [[He paused, nose wrinkling slightly before he quickly turned to the side to cover a sneeze that shook off a small amount of dust that was attempting to settle in his hair]]

Are you?

Exactly! Teehee~

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-07 10:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank goodness! [He sighed in relief when it seemed that his friend was alright. Smiling, he only moved away when he was certain that Bakura was fine.]

Me? Oh yeah, I'm fine!
shiromadoushi: (Anime: I'm fine no really...)

[personal profile] shiromadoushi 2012-02-07 11:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Aaa, I'm glad! [[a small laugh as he attempted to dust himself off, feeling a touch awkward at having been clinging, but it had been for a good reason!]] I hope everything else stays upright... [[including himself!]]

[When he's certain that his friend is alright, Yuuri glanced around at the street around them. It was in complete disarray! And he knew that there would be others out there that would need their help.]

Yeah you're not kidding me. [The muttered words were distracted before he turned his attention back to his friend.] We should go and see if anyone needs any help. Hopefully no one's trapped inside any of the buildings.
shiromadoushi: (!)

[[The very thought that someone might be trapped is enough to alarm Bakura.]] Aaa! That would be horrible if they were...!

[[He looks over at the crumbled pile that they had just dodged.]] At least this one looks like it's been empty a while... Hopefully it was the only one!

[personal profile] a_royal_flush 2012-02-14 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[That was definitely a relief!] That is lucky!

There might be other people who need some help. Are you feeling up for it?
shiromadoushi: (Yo!)

[personal profile] shiromadoushi 2012-02-15 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
[[A nod]] Un. I'm good!

[[Really, if he felt up to it wasn't the question. The possibility of other people needing help overrode any of his own needs!]]
