Who| Matt & Steve | Matt, Jet, & Albert
What| Exploring post-power outage | Matt's death thread
Where| Just off town square | The Lake
When| During the Hell Arena power outage | Week Four
Warnings/Notes| Character death & violence during the thread w/ Jet & Albert
I. Steve Rogers, Non-Hell Arena
Matt couldn't see the dark, but he could feel the crackle of electricity in the air and sense the tension building up all around him. The air felt so thick, he was sure he was going to be smothered by it. The whole world seemed to catch fire for the briefest of moments before the cresciendo of sound and senses swelled around him and then released. He felt like he should get inside, take cover before lightning struck him dead on the spot. Instead, however, he found himself in an eery place of calm and comfort. The world seemed peaceful, almost serene. He even heard what sounded like crickets chirping. The mist was gone from his lungs and he could almost breathe easy again. But something told him not to relax just yet. They were still deep in the heart of the war zone.
II. Jet & Albert, The Lake
He'd been right about that calm. It was beautiful and righteous, but it was over quickly and it left a strange sense of loss in its wake. Matt was mournful of that fleeting peace. Gone was the chance to start anew. It was back to the murder business now that the fog had rolled back in.
Somehow, he'd found the lake. He didn't dare drink the water, though he'd knelt before it just long enough to splash his face and clean himself up. Four weeks in a dead town and a man started to smell ripe. It got especially bad for him with his enhanced senses and all. His own smell was strong enough that he wasn't paying full attention to his own surroundings. He was a prime target for anyone who might happen along.
