[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.

[Ling hurries along dutifully at Itachi's side. He contemplates running along ahead, but he's not sure if that will make the elderly man upset again. Before Ling carried the man outside, he'd been quite frantic at the idea of being separated from his wife, even with Ling's promise that he would hurry her out also.]

[He addresses Itachi, following his lead down the street]


Are there earthquakes like this often, here?

I have not experienced one since arriving.

[ that wasn't to say they didn't happen. still, in the five months that Itachi had been in the city this was the biggest natural disaster he could recall.

he's walking rather quickly himself. even mostly blind and without his sharingan he is able to navigate the city decently enough. ]


They are not uncommon back where I am from. This world is a little different, though.

Oh? Different in what ways?

I'm Ling, by the way. Ling Yao of Xing.

I see. I am Uchiha Itachi.


The differences vary depending on what we are speaking of.
forhispeople: (serious in black- 3/4)

[Ling doesn't care if Itachi's not very talkative. He's pretty good at filling in the space and being friendly. It helps keep everybody calm in the situation, including the elderly couple.]

How about the technology? I think that's one of the biggest differences for me. Where I come from we don't have such things as these picture boxes. Or machines that fly in the sky.
