Oh well, you were never that close to them anyway…


You reach for your weapon, while Todd and Charles are still talking. You blast Charles in the neck making blood spurt all over Todd who stares in shock. Your next shot hits Todd in the head.

With both of them dead you suddenly feel a whole lot better and go back to work. Naturally the sound of the shots brings people to come running.

"OH NO! HE'S DONE IT AGAIN!" someone shouts and runs back out of the room. Pretty soon Nina and her goon Leon come in. Nina sees the two bodies on the floor and looks more pissed off than afraid of you.

"What the fuck did you do that for?"
"Just ensuring my position Nina, I'm sure you understand."
"You fucking psychotic sonofabitch! You can't just go around shooting people!"
"Oh don't EVEN be claiming moral superiority here Nina, you who throws people into Exile just because they're looking at you funny! In fact Todd and Charles deaths are your fault not mine, I can't help if I feel threatened that you might replace me and throw me out on to the surface as well."
"Goddamn you, if you didn't have that gun or the only reliable tech, I'd throw you out of here so fast…"
"Exactly! So I'm glad we're in agreement…it's all your fault."
"What the…look, just because you got that fuckin' gun doesn't mean shit! I'M still in charge of this place!"

You stand up and shoot Leon three times, he falls backwards smacking his head against a table before taking his last breath. Now Nina starts to get worried, you just shot her head goon who was intimidating everyone else. She doesn't have that leverage anymore. Of course right now she's not worried about staying in power, for the first time she's worried about you shooting her. You're up close and personal, threatening her with it.

"See that Nina? What the fuck are ya gonna do now? Who are ya gonna get to throw people into exile? In case you haven't realized it yet, but I'M in fuckin' charge of this goddamn place! I just let you think you are! Now I suggest you take your ass outta here and try to figure out how you're gonna stay in power. Because I'm sure there's a lot of people not fond of you either, but unlike me they can actually do something about you.
Guess I know who'll be the next exile! Ha Ha!" you then lick Nina's face.

Nina backs out of the room in a hurry, leaving you alone with a room full of dead bodies.

"Get up, you lazy fucks, we got work to do!" you say kicking Todd's body in a macabre joke to yourself.

 Perhaps stepping over the line of killing Todd and Charles with no provocation unhinged you a bit. And killing Leon certainly put you over the edge. Granted Nina's no saint, but what you're doing is just as bad. You kind of got a power rush, from your deeds today and you must say you really liked it.

After making sure everything's working properly and even increasing the efficiency a bit, you decide to call it a day at the computer room. You leave stepping over the bodies that nobody's come to clean up yet.

"Well, if you're still here, I guess I'll see you guys tomorrow." You say.

You make your way back to your room. The corridors seem to be clear of folks, probably afraid of all the stuff that went down today so they're keeping their heads down. Good.

Before you get ready to go to sleep, you get a knock on the door, you answer it, ready to shoot someone else again, but see Nina in her underwear instead. You're a little surprised.

"Nina, what the hell are you doing?" unsure of how to respond.

Nina begins to talk in a way you've never heard her speak before, seductive, yet vulnerable.

"I was doing some thinking like you said back in the computer room…and you're right. I won't hold anymore power here anymore…I'll probably get thrown onto the surface like you said…unless I ally myself with someone who has power, and you're the only one with that kind of power."
"I see, so what does this conclusion you've come to mean exactly?"

Nina takes your hand and puts it on her body, starting with her firm breasts and moving it lower to the promised land.

"It means I'm yours, in everyway imaginable, every night, any time, just please don't let anything happen to me."

Nina then nuzzles up against you and begins kissing on you gently for further enticement in her desperate plan to save herself.

It's a bit hard to resist her offer. In more ways than one. This reminds you of those prison movies where one of them offers to be the bitch in exchange for protection, except this is better because Nina's female!

You decline

You push her away; you're not fooled by this act.


"Nina, maybe your feminine wiles worked on Leon, but that shit ain't gonna work on me, I know what the fuck you're up to. You think I'm gonna let you distract me and let you grab my pistol while we're fucking? Not fucking likely!"


Nina attempts to continue with her tactic and gets next to you again.


"No, I'm serious. I want your protection. I wouldn't try to betray you…"

"Oh, okay. You're serious eh? We'll see."


You pull Nina in the room and lock the door. You then take your pistol, unload it, and then put it on the far side of the room. Nina's face looks little less "in the mood" now.


"Alright, let's go then." You say.

"Uh…"

"What's the matter? Plan backfire? Too late for regrets now, now we can either do this voluntarily or INvoluntarily…and on the path I've been going lately I think you know that I'm fully capable of doing it. Pfft. I don't need a gun for you. So, what's it gonna be Nina?"


Nina looks around, probably looking for something to throw at you, but she realizes that it would probably be in vain. She's obviously scared, but still tries to maintain some bravery in this hopeless situation that you've put her in.


"Alright…but don't hurt me."


Your increasingly chaotic personality changes again and you go up to Nina in a "loving" fashion.


"Aw baby, I won't hurt you. Just know your place and I'll take care of you, I promise."


You fuck Nina eight ways from doomsday that night. You can't speak for Nina, but you know YOU enjoyed yourself. The only absolute positive for Nina is that she IS now under your protection and nobody dares to do anything to her now.


A few months pass and you keep expecting her to try to do something to betray you, but nothing happens. Either she's resigned herself to being "yours" or she's content on taking her aggression out on others. Her time with you doesn't make her any more compassionate to others, if anything she's gotten worse. She doesn't threaten people with exile anymore, now she just threatens them with you.


Meanwhile you begin to slowly descend into a sociopathic personality. The only thing that prevents you from shooting everyone is the fact that you're getting off on their fear a lot more than if you killed them. You keep the computer room locked so only you may access it.


You and her are pretty much running the place now.


Five more years pass…


The shelter is a living nightmare to most people. They live in constant fear that you or Nina will do something to them. Nina has developed a twisted sort of love for you, and while you have a certain fondness for her, you don't really give a shit about anything anymore, you barely even keep the computer working right anymore, now you just make sure your room is running properly. Nina is a permanent fixture at your place, so you don't even need to look after her room even if you were inclined to do so.


While the people were living in fear of you, initially you were at least somewhat looking after their welfare, but now you aren't even doing that. Now the fear turns into hatred and resentment. The cowering worms have evolved to grow spines. They begin devising a plan.


One day Nina gets into a cat fight with another woman, Greta. She beats her pretty badly, until her husband Fred steps in and begins beating the hell out of her. As is typical Nina runs off to tell you, at which point you come out of the computer room ready to shoot someone. Fred stands up to you, and says Nina was the one who started it and he was just protecting his wife as if his explanation means anything to you.


"Duly noted. And I understand your view, but as you must be able to see I have a view of things as well…that's a nice kid you got there."


You shoot Fred and Greta's son right before their eyes. Greta screams and Fred lunges at you, causing you to shoot him as well, but not before he tackles you to the floor. Seeing this as the perfect opportunity, a few other bystanders take advantage of the situation, your sole means of power and intimidation is taken from you, as you are kicked and beaten repeatedly. Nina is treated the same way. Suddenly the beatings stop and as you attempt to get up you feel the barrel against your head. You spit a glob of blood before continuing.


 

"Ha ha, go ahead shit eater. Pop me and they'll be nobody to run the computer the right way."

"We'll get by." a voice says.


You then are shot twice in the back of the head. Nina's fate follows soon after. Your remaining ammo is used to shoot both of your dead bloody bodies until it's all gone.
