By D3AD_SIL3NT What do you think of me?
I am sorry I never got around to your question, I will awnser it now. You are a cool guy, I don't mind having you around on CG.
No one comment on my old AMA it is a month old. I guess it is about time that I answered that question, do not get butthurt about this AMA. I was afraid I would get in trouble for replying on an month old AMA. Do not comment on the old one.

John Smith Day: Last Day October 4th, 2015
It was just like yesterday, the girl I met that week went by so fast. It was such a great time seeing her. It all went by so fast and I let so much go. I hope it doesn't happen again. She was... beautiful; so, whats the word? I can't put my tongue on it. By she was like... a piece of music. You had the beginning and it is just so beautiful , then you have the chorus and it is just so... "wow! That was amazing". Then it goes back to the regular schedule and all your thinking is "man! I want that chorus to come back!" but you have to give it time. Then the amazing chorus comes back and you are just enjoying it the whole time. The the music begins to wrap up, the scene dies down... then you wait for the next day to arrive. Oh man, she was so... unexplainable. Yea that is the word... unexplainable. Oh man, what I would give to see her face one more time. It all went by so fast... I want it to change this time. I am guessing it is time I hit the hay in-order for the next day to arrive I suppose.

Oh man, a new family has just arrived in the house for sale across the street! I can't wait to greet them! There seemed to be 2 kids and a woman. I wonder why is she all alone taking care of two wild kids? She seemed to have a hard enough time getting them into the house. I wonder if I can help her; she seems like a nice lady. I hope she is nice... she had a well dressed attire for buying a new shelter for her family. The two kids seemed to be 15 and 17. They seemed very energetic but nice and sweet. They were also well dressed. Their mom seemed to be like a confident woman by the way she walked and looked. I am looking forward to greeting her. Better get my present over there first before any other neighbors do. I am kinda nervous, but it so something to look forward to. I must be on my way instead of wasting my time with this notepad. Phew, already sweating, I don't know what she will say! Post Auto-Merged: September 03, 2012, 12:10:03 AM John Smith Day: 2 (Night) September 29th, 2015
I went over to her house and it was amazing. She invited me in and the house just made me... awe struck. She must have worked hard to set up the house in such a short period of time. Well, I mean... decorations are the only thing up but on to the point. She invited me in. I came in and she was already done with dinner. She looked dirty and sweaty from her hard work. The teenagers came down and sat on the floor with us and began to eat. But it was like everything darkened out and a spotlight began to shine on her beautiful looking face. Everything was perfect about her. I didn't even care if she was dirty or sweaty. We laugh and told stories to each other when the teenagers went to sleep. We had a good time laughing, telling stories, playing board games. Then it came time she finally opened the present I gifted her. She unwrapped it and what revealed from the wrapping was a picture frame. It had golden linings and aluminum golden stripes. It was a perfect day. She got tired and I had to leave. As I left I felt the last warm feel of her threshold. Something felt..... magical... about her. when we first laid eyes on each other it was like true love at first site. I can't wait to see her tomorrow. Post Auto-Merged: September 03, 2012, 02:23:02 PM John Smith September 30th, 2015 Day: 3
I haven't seen her for a while, her car is not in the driveway like it used to be. I wonder where she could be. I hope she is not in trouble. Soon I'll be driving down to the cliff to relax. I am kinda worried, her car wasn't here this morning nor this afternoon. Where could she be?! I walked over there and the only person there was one of the teenagers. His name was Andrew, even Andrew knew nothing about her where-a-bouts. I am very worried about her. Maybe she is at the cliff relaxing? Forget it, the cliff is my secret place to relax. I guess a ew hours of waiting wouldn't hurt... but there is something I want to tell her...
For pretty much a month now I have tried to start up LoL but it just got to the loading screen and when I clicked play nothing happened! WTF Happened to it, I need help!
(note: I am not well with the medival age so my story may be a bit confusing, which I will edit in another part of the story explaining confusing parts. Please, reply, constructive criticism is good, also comment on confusing parts and I will update the story.)
Music that I thought that may fit it, I don't know.
Spoiler for Hiden:
The Battle for Garath It was fall, 1622, leaves surrounded the courtyards of the huge kingdom of Garath. The villagers lived happily in there cottages under the high-mounted kingdom. The peasants walked up 100 steps to get to the kingdom, followed by more into the throne room. The peasants would walk in and take off their vests and feel the nice warm fire. They sat around the throne room and waited for a guard to let them enter the throne room to speak to the king and queen of Garath. They would look around the throne room nervously. The guards held their sharp pole-arms near their chest tightly. As the peasant stood in front of the King and Queen she cleared her throat. She looked up and began to speak. "H-hello King Richard and Queen Matilda, I c-come tell word of a-a theif that umm..."
She clenched her hat tightly and began to sweat. She looked down in thought and then looked back up to begin speaking. "Yes t-there is a thief on the l-loose and I j-j-just wanted to warn you about this thief" The king stroked his beard in thought. As guards transported her out she looked back with a scared expression. The same guards came back in to report to the King.
"Nigel, Howard, I both want you out with John and Kah'Hul" said the King with his booming voice.
The King looked like a man with gold everything, he looked very clean and smart, but spoiled. He had a gold robe and musket. A purple cape with a lion symbol on it. Black leather boots. Black leather leggings with the robe around them. Black leather vest under the robe. And clanging change whenever he moves. He had a longish red beard and curly afroish red hair. He had a gold crown with purple sidings that had the lion symbol also on it. His eyes were greyish blueish, his nose was stubby, roundish. And his math was big with his mustache and beard surrounding it. He also had sideburns that were also red leading from his hair into his facial hair.
"Y-yes sir!"
They both saluted and headed out the doorway.
"Also, tell Amber, Dona, Jacob, and Matterson to get in here" said the King again.
Both of the men marched out the door positivetly. As the shut the huge, bronze doors the 4 guards stood in front of the two the two other guards, Nigel and Howard.
"What d-does the K-king want us f-f-for?" asked Amber with her soft, wobbly voice.
"We don't know, but there is a thief on the loose and guards are being sent outside the kingdom to search the village's below" replied Nigel with a gravely voice.
The group of 4 entered the throne room. The slowly entered in, their legs wobbled and their faces sweated. Their armor shook with their wobbly legs. Each step was followed with a loud CLANK noise. The Queen began to speak.
"Guards, we need two of you on the west side of the villages and the other two on the east side, we will send more guards down to assist" Said the Queen with her old, loud, 'treble clef' sounding voice.
"Yes madam!"
The four immediately rushed out of the throne room. The King and Queen sent more guards out till there was a few number of guards roaming the Kingdom. Suddenly the glass on top of the throne room busted, glass fell on both of the guards in the middle of the throne room receiving orders from the King and Queen. The both cowarded behind the armor the Queen sat up and the King stood up and un-sheathed his musket and spatha. Two black figures in suits reeled down on ropes. One of the guards came behind one of the suits to attack. More black figures reeled down. Guards busted into the throne room to investigate the yelling and screaming. Guards yelled as they battled the black figures. The Queen ran behind her throne as a knife was thrown into it. The King fired off a few shots of his musket, hitting a few black figurines.
The shot black figurines fell quickly at the sound of the musket. The sound was heard from the Kingdom. The villages began to start up with talking and screaming of fear. Guards stood at the walls with the Arquebuss ready. Gaurds ruched up the stairs to the Kingdom. Back at the Kingdom battle was happening. Black Figures fell through the roof quickly, The Kind fended off the figures in suits with his steel spatha. Then the King watched as a guard fell down from a sword hitting him in the neck. The guard fell onto the steps, the King rushed to the guard down. The King killed the figures swarming his body. He looked into the almost closed eyes of the guard.
"I am sorry Alph... I am so sorry" said the King as tears began to fill his eyes, he looked back as he watched another guard die. He pulled out his musket and killed the remaining figures. He looked back at the guard in his hands, he was dead. The King looked at his closed eyes. As tears began to form a huge bronze suit crashed through the ceiling. It stood up and looked at the King. It's eyes glowed red and it's metal pulsed with what looked like lava. The King's face was full of fear. Then a cannon fired, a cannon ball crashed trough a window, hitting the bronze, moving suit. It fell down, it got back up slowly. Loud CLANKing sounds emitted from it. It got up and withdrew it's giant, steel sword. It slowly processed towards the King. The King stood in shock. AS the sword came down the King snapped back and rolled out of the way fearsome-ly. The King jumped onto the the bronze suit, banging on it's helmet with his steel spatha. The helmet finally came off. Then a man's head was shown.
"So, you had to do all this for 10,000 gold?!" The King roared.
"Yes, it was reasonable" smiled the stranger.
"I SENT A COURIER TO YOU!"
"Yes... then I bought my men new armory and we set off to destroy you" The stranger smirked, it was revealed he was the King of Zarainain. The King raised his sword to kill the attacker. He brought his sword down on his neck, killing him instantly. Then another canonball hit the kingdom, this time pushing the Queen across the room. The King sprinted over to her. He leg was broken and her arms were paralyzed. The King carried her out of the kingdom, followed by many, many, many guards. The King repeated "We will make it! Just hold out Matilda!"
The guards slaughtered the attackers. The King hid the Queen and himself in a hay bale that was being shipped out of the Kingdom. they quickly made it out. Then a torch hit the side of their carriage. The fire spreaded across the side of the carriage onto a leather strap of a horse, breaking it and releasing it. The carriage fell over to the left with the coach (driver, jockey, whatever). The King fell almost completely off the carriage. The speed went down at a great time. The King, Queen, and coach went forward from the instant stop. The King and Queen rammed into the back while the coach hung onto the horse for dear life. The horse headed straight for a cliff. The King a Queen both got thrown around as they hung onto the back of the carriage. The fire went out on the left side of the carriage, spreading ashes and bits of fire across the grass.
The coach reached for the leather strap to slow the horse down before they go flying off the cliff. The King climbed up the carriage to grab it and try to stop it to. The carriage hit a rock, making the King nearly fall off. The King grabbed onto the leather strap when the carriage hit the rock. The King flew back with it, braking the carriage and making the leather strap break. The leather strap broke meaning that the horse was almost free. It fought off the coach. The coach flew back and landed on a leather strap and wood. The horse returned going straight. The King grabbed onto the Queen as the Queen was dragged through the grass. The Queen hit a rock, breaking the hold between the two. She tumbled then stopped. As the carriage was about to go off the cliff the King grabbed the coach and tried to pull him off. But the coach was to heavy and the shirt collar ripped off when the King jumped back off the carriage. The coach, carriage, and horse all went off the cliff, falling to instant death. The King screamed "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he fell to his knees. His face began to sadden, then he ran back to the Queen. A archer from Garath followed him, he was holding the Queen. The King rushed and kneeled before her, her eyes were shut.
"No... no, no, no, NO, NO, NO!" said the King, tears already rolling his eyes.
He cluched onto the deceased Queen. He cried and the archer attempted to pull him away.
"SHE IS GONE! SHE IS NOT COMING BACK LET HER GO!" Screamed the archer as he attempted to pull him away.
"SHE IS NOT GONE! I KNOW SHE ISN'T!" Screamed the King.
As the King settled down he looked back at his burning kingdom.
A few months later the King became insane, he was king no more, he was a peasant. He was locked into a cell, forcing himself to hang himself. The guards rushed in to find a fallen stool and and man hanging by a rope. His face was just dirt, his clothes were barely clothes anymore, his skin looked a bit deformed. There was no Garath or King for Garath anymore, just a deceased peasant.

Now I am Officially taking a break, due to family problems and certain harrasment online I am going to take a break for a unknown amount of time. I will rev-vist the servers every once and a while but not for long. A lot of people don't like me so I am going to take a 'break' for a good while. I hope Catalyst-Gaming will still be here when I come back. I may make some music or something, I don't know. Well anyways, peace o7.
He is not real, it was a photoshop contest *cough* proof *cough*:
Spoiler for Hiden:
T : Back In June 2009, 10th to be precise, what motivated you to join the “create paranormal images” kind of contest on SomethingAwful forums ? VS : It was pretty spontaneous. I saw some of the pictures in the thread and just decided to make something that I myself would find creepy. T : What was your sources of inspiration in creating your first two pictures dealing with a strange figure that you called “The Slender Man” ? How did people react to it ? VS : I was mostly influenced by H.P Lovecraft, Stephan King (specifically his short stories), the surreal imaginings of William S. Burroughs, and couple games of the survival horror genre; Silent Hill and Resident Evil. I feel the most direct influences were Zack Parsons’s “That Insidious Beast”, the Steven King short story “The Mist”, the SA tale regarding “The Rake”, reports of so-called shadow people, Mothman, and the Mad Gasser of Mattoon. I used these to formulate asomething whose motivations can barely be comprehended and causes general unease and terror in a general population. The reaction was suprisingly good so I continued making pictures based on Slender Man. T : What was your reaction when people started creating pictures and stories about your newborn myth, in parallel with yours ? Did you think it would get that much popular and spread to others websites (4chan, Kongregate, Facepunch…) as quickly as it did, gaining the status of “Internet Urban Legend” and a meme ? VS : It was amazing to see people create their own little part of Slender Man in order to perpetuate his existance. I didn’t expect it to move beyong the SA forums. And when it did, I found it interesting to watch as sort of an accelerated version of an urban legend. It differs from the prior concept of the urban legend in that it is on the Internet, and this both helps and harms the status of the Slender Man as one. In my personal opinion, an urban legend requires an audience ignorant of the origin of the legend. It needs unverifiable third and forth hand (or more) accounts to perpetuate the myth. On the Internet, anyone is privy to its origins as evidenced by the very public Somethingawful thread. But what is funny is that despite this, it still spread. Internet memes are finicky things and by making something at the right place and time it can swell into an “Internet Urban Legend”. T : Do you know about users “Ce Gars” and “KickYouInHalf”, or overall, the Marble Hornets project itself ? VS : There have been a couple of e-mails, but I don’t know them personally. T : Did you help with their series of video (to these days, more than 26 episodes) ? Was it more of a tribute to your work ? What was your reaction toward it and their own popularity as a series on Youtube ? VS : I had nothing to do with their series of videos or any other that may have anything seemingly to do with the Slender Man. I’m keeping my projects close to my chest (in a plastic bag with the rest of my organs). I hope other groups create new concepts and make series of videos. Not necessarily a horror series or somehing about the paranormal, but productions using all sorts of subject matter and in multiple genres. I think the Marble Hornets project’s strongest point is showing what you can achieve with this medium. T : One year later, people still seem to continue to like the Slender Man character, enough to make the Marble Hornets crew consider about a new season. Do you still get recognition from time to time about Slender Man ? Has that character changed your way of browsing the web ? VS : I do on occasion, but I like it to stay mysterious (does interview). T : Do you have anything to add on what has been said, or any last word you would want to say to the readers ? VS : Before you had angels and succubi, and then ghosts and spirits, today we have shadow people and inter-dimensional beings. The Slender Man, and other newly created entities, are just the newest addition in the progression of a long, and very real, human tradition. You’ve seen him, now you can’t unsee him. T : Thank you very much again for your time.
1) Please write a minimum of 3 paragraphs OOC'ly detailing why your character wishes to join the Combine Civil Authority and what lead your character to do so. Cindy was just like the normal City 45 citizen. She would wake up, (Most of the time she would not sleep from raids, lock-downs, ect.) eat a leftover ration, sit outside and watch life go past. Basically the lather, rinse, repeat routine. After she had seen the raids, lock-downs, fights, and sometimes killing for a few weeks she was a spectator of the events. This did not bother her for a short time. After a short time it climaxed and it began to annoy her.
After a while it got tiring, she began to watch out her apartment window at the raiding, fighting, and shooting. She got tired of it, she didn't have much heart for some of the CP's but she had to deal with it. As long as she was alive she had to take the 'Civil Protection' for granite. As long as the Civil Protection kept her alive. Though it still annoyed her, it annoyed her deeply. The searing annoyance had gotten to Cindy and she had fell prey to the Combine.
One day she was walking into a shop and tripped a rebel that was running out of the store. The CP got there in time to get the rebel or as they called them anti-citizens on the ground. The officer granted her a point. Cindy was questionable and she asked what these points do. He explained it to her and she started off to get 4 more of these points. She eventually got 4 more points and she thought back on if she should become apart of the Civil Protection or not. She was only told the good part about being a CP so without thinking twice about the consequences she started off to make an application to join the CCA. She got some facts on the Combine and the Combine history in hope to be accepted.
2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy) Pure- She will always follow orders and make sure they are carried out.
Cooperative- She will successfully work with any teammate without complaining.
Trustworthy- She is to sure carry out orders and make sure they are done correct.
Brave- She will push her fears away from a fight till she is successful.
Lawful- She will always make sure she does her job but also follow the rules.
Polite- She will respect her higher command.
Obedient- She will follow the rules and listen to objectives without complaining.
3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character. expect the CCA to be a fun/scary role in Role Playing. I expect it to be hard (That's because I lag sometimes) and a adventerous experience. I expect it to be exciting, it will definitely be a memorial achievements in Role Playing. I also expect the CCA training a lot different from regular citizen activities.
For Cindy she expects the CCA to be fun and beneficial. But what she hasn't realized is that it will be hard for her. All the way from training to her ending she will have to endure hard assignments. The CCA wont be as easy as a cake walk for her. The only thing she expects hard is patrolling and multitasking, also raids.
4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words. -CHILDHOOD- Cindy Whitmore was 5 when she got into kindergarten, she was so smart they made Cindy skip to kindergarten. Cindy was fascinated with books and machinery. She had read 4 learn-to-read book by herself when she was 2. By the time Cindy was 4 she had a huge vocabulary and vast knowledge about machinery and nature. Cindy was a very smart kid. Her parents were constantly bragging about Cindy and her smarts. About the age 11 she was in middle school and was repeatedly getting A+'s on each report card. When she turned 13 her mother had died from brain tumor, medulloblastoma.
-TEENAGE'HOOD'- By the time Cindy was 16 and she was still very smart but also she was stronger and braver. Her first fight was when she was 17, she was walking through the outside basketball court and bumped into another girl. The girl fell and went ballistic on one little scratch. As the two teens fought the loud heel clamps came around the corner, both battle-worn teens had encountered the principal in front of them. For the first time Cindy had brought shame upon the family. Cindy was suspended, each day Cindy was suspension went by, Cindy would sneak out of her room and talk to her friends through the gate surrounding the 'court' yard. The fight was brutal so only a mere couple of cameras were placed around the school. Her dad got really mad when he found out about her sneaking out and put a taking device on her back. He also set it to were if she got to far from him it would shack her. Cindy was in deep trouble, her grades had also fallen to a B-.
-ADULT'HOOD'- Cindy Whitmore was now 21, as time went on Cindy was knocked out with a piece of rubble beside her head. There was a portal storm, Cindy was looking up at a lamp and the lamp had fallen from the portal storm. Cindy had fallen over from the huge push on her body. The whole building shook with it, but since she was in searing pain she thought it was a mortar. Cindy was scared, she heard rebels and anti citizens fighting a war out there. A clock was still intact, she looked at it and it had been 3 hours since this war had started. She looked outside the window and she saw shooting happening all over the place. All of a sudden the building had collapsed. Cindy ran out and fell from another push on her body. She was trying to get up and a rebel had pushed her down, she collapsed and as she was blacking out another lighter portal storm came and had no big effect, she saw it but didn't remember it. There was a cut/lump on her head. As the 7 Hour War raged on Cindy was out cold. It was a long time before she woke up. She was surrounded by masked men named Civil Protection, they gave her a blue jumpsuit, a CID number, and an escort to a train. As she was being transported to City 45 she wondered what it looked like and how long was she out. She got off the train and headed to get a ration after they were greeted by a man on the Nexus screen. She looked around, scanners were floating and Combine were holding stun-sticks. Cindy was probably the utmost confused/scared person there.
-7 HOUR WAR- Cindy was running down a hallway confused, she was escaping a falling building. She was running out until she had tripped. She couldn't get up because there were so many people running over her. As she was getting up a piece of rubble had hit her head and she got knocked out. She woke up and heard gun shots and screams. She looked down and she noticed she was being dragged away. Her head was bleeding, but it wasn't severe. She looked up and saw that a masked man was dragging her. She looked down and blacked out. She woke up on a bed and was surrounded by other masked men. They had stitched the wound on her head. Then they knocked her back out with some medication and transported her back to the 'rally point'.
-PRESENT- Cindy Whitmore arrived at City 45. She walked past the masked men watching her. She quickly got out, got an apartment, and pieced back her thoughts one by one. As she finished a broadcast came on with a lady's voice that announced rations. Cindy got her rations and when everyone was in front of the Nexus, a huge building that was made by the combine, the black screen on the nexus had shown a man. The man had greeted everyone. Once it was over everyone went on with their normal lives. The robot looking masked men searched some people for reasons Cindy couldn't understand and some were taken into the Nexus. After a while Cindy slept, woke up, and repeated the same routine. Cindy always saw/heard someone getting detained or killed.

Every day I think about being artist or musician or even a commentator. Then I realize I have nothing to do that stuff with. Every time I go to sleep I dream about these crazy animations I have thought up when I was awake. Then I realize, I don't know how to do it. People try to hold me back because I am young. They say I can't do it, I try and I come out with scribbles and they just laugh. I watch movies and play games and think one day I want to do this, but how? Everyday I wake up and get harrassed and held back for my age, there is always a stereotype that make people think that kids my age can't do anything and are worthless, but when you try to live out your dreams somethings do come true. I have been trying this whole summer to make a exotic creation, but I don't know how. With the tools I have now, nothing would work. I try to make animations and I just sit there each day looking at a white board thinking how can I do this stuff. I look up tutorials and nothing helps, I try to make stickfigure animations but they come out choppy. I have no support and I am walking a lone road on my way to doing something brilliant. I try to commentate and upload it to youtube and when I look back, that video was choppy and laggy. Now that Catalyst Gaming and RP has inspired me to try to make great things, it falls to peices.

The officer granted her a point. Cindy was questionable and she asked what these points do. He explained it to her and she started off to get 4 more of these points. She eventually got 4 more points and she thought back on if she should become apart of the Civil Protection or not. She was only told the good part about being a CP so without thinking twice about the consequences she started off to make an application to join the CCA. She got some facts on the Combine and the Combine history in hope to be accepted.
2) Please detail your characters traits. (Eg, Pure, Lawful, Trustworthy) Pure- She will always follow orders and make sure they are carried out.
Cooperative- She will successfully work with any teammate without complaining.
Trustworthy- She is to sure carry out orders and make sure they are done correct.
Brave- She will push her fears away from a fight till she is successful.
Lawful- She will always make sure she does her job but also follow the rules.

Obedient- She will follow the rules and listen to objectives without complaining.
3) Please provide 2 paragraphs about what you are expecting the Combine Civil Authority to be like for you and your character. I expect the CCA to be a fun/scary role in Role Playing. I expect it to be hard (That's because I lag sometimes) and a adventerous experience. I expect it to be exciting, it will definitely be a memorial achievements in Role Playing. I also expect the CCA training a lot different from regular citizen activities.
For Cindy she expects the CCA to be fun and beneficial. But what she hasn't realized is that it will be hard for her. All the way from training to her ending she will have to endure hard assignments. The CCA wont be as easy as a cake walk for her. The only thing she expects hard is patrolling and multitasking, also raids.
4) Please provide a detailed back-story from an out-of-character perspective on your applying character. This section must be detailed and consist of a minimum of 300 words. -CHILDHOOD- Cindy Whitmore was 5 when she got into kindergarten, she was so smart they made Cindy skip to kindergarten. Cindy was fascinated with books and machinery. She had read 4 learn-to-read book by herself when she was 2. By the time Cindy was 4 she had a huge vocabulary and vast knowledge about machinery and nature. Cindy was a very smart kid. Her parents were constantly bragging about Cindy and her smarts. About the age 11 she was in middle school and was repeatedly getting A+'s on each report card. When she turned 13 her mother had died from brain tumor, medulloblastoma.
-TEENAGE'HOOD'- By the time Cindy was 16 and she was still very smart but also she was stronger and braver. Her first fight was when she was 17, she was walking through the outside basketball court and bumped into another girl. The girl fell and went ballistic on one little scratch. As the two teens fought the loud heel clamps came around the corner, both battle-worn teens had encountered the principal in front of them. For the first time Cindy had brought shame upon the family. Cindy was suspended, each day Cindy was suspension went by, Cindy would sneak out of her room and talk to her friends through the gate surrounding the 'court' yard. The fight was brutal so only a mere couple of cameras were placed around the school. Her dad got really mad when he found out about her sneaking out and put a taking device on her back. He also set it to were if she got to far from him it would shack her. Cindy was in deep trouble, her grades had also fallen to a B-.
-ADULT'HOOD'- Cindy Whitmore was now 21, as time went on Cindy was knocked out with a piece of rubble beside her head. There was a portal storm, Cindy was looking up at a lamp and the lamp had fallen from the portal storm. Cindy had fallen over from the huge push on her body. The whole building shook with it, but since she was in searing pain she thought it was a mortar. Cindy was scared, she heard rebels and anti citizens fighting a war out there. A clock was still intact, she looked at it and it had been 3 hours since this war had started. She looked outside the window and she saw shooting happening all over the place. All of a sudden the building had collapsed. Cindy ran out and fell from another push on her body. She was trying to get up and a rebel had pushed her down, she collapsed and as she was blacking out another lighter portal storm came and had no big effect, she saw it but didn't remember it. There was a cut/lump on her head. As the 7 Hour War raged on Cindy was out cold. It was a long time before she woke up. She was surrounded by masked men named Civil Protection, they gave her a blue jumpsuit, a CID number, and an escort to a train. As she was being transported to City 45 she wondered what it looked like and how long was she out. She got off the train and headed to get a ration after they were greeted by a man on the Nexus screen. She looked around, scanners were floating and Combine were holding stun-sticks. Cindy was probably the utmost confused/scared person there.
-7 HOUR WAR- Cindy was running down a hallway confused, she was escaping a falling building. She was running out until she had tripped. She couldn't get up because there were so many people running over her. As she was getting up a piece of rubble had hit her head and she got knocked out. She woke up and heard gun shots and screams. She looked down and she noticed she was being dragged away. Her head was bleeding, but it wasn't severe. She looked up and saw that a masked man was dragging her. She looked down and blacked out. She woke up on a bed and was surrounded by other masked men. They had stitched the wound on her head. Then they knocked her back out with some medication and transported her back to the 'rally point'.
-PRESENT- Cindy Whitmore arrived at City 45. She walked past the masked men watching her. She quickly got out, got an apartment, and pieced back her thoughts one by one. As she finished a broadcast came on with a lady's voice that announced rations. Cindy got her rations and when everyone was in front of the Nexus, a huge building that was made by the combine, the black screen on the nexus had shown a man. The man had greeted everyone. Once it was over everyone went on with their normal lives. The robot looking masked men searched some people for reasons Cindy couldn't understand and some were taken into the Nexus. After a while Cindy slept, woke up, and repeated the same routine. Cindy always saw/heard someone getting detained or killed.
