TOUR OF DEATH
Welcome to the rock concert for the DAMNED and the DOOMED!
Joining a Campaign game.
Starring: Smitty, Jake, Dusty, Ox
Jake: Alright, I think I just came up with a strategy that'll help us survive. It's simple, we get out there, find anything or anyone that'll help us reach the military, get back here, and drive further into the city if we don't find something.
Smitty: Sounds good, let's go.
[Tour Bus door opens]
First place to look is the streets of Brooklyn. If the apartments, restaurants and stores ahead will be empty, then the next move will be to get back to the tour bus, which will now be the Tour Bus safe house, and drive further into New York City.
[Glock Pistol fire]
Jake: Try to shoot 'em in the head. That'll usually do the trick.
[Glock Pistol fire]
Dusty: Argh! How th— Who the hell just shot me?!
Ox: Oh, sorry, my bad! Man, I knew I should've listened to my dad's firearms courses he gave to my sisters and cousins back then.
Despite the crash course given to them by Anthony, all members of the Midnight Riders have little to no weapons and combat experience. So they hold all firearms improperly (with just one hand and firing from the hip) regardless of their designated roles.
But Melee Weapons are something they know well, so they will hold them properly. However, they still handle the first few stragglers and their first kills decently.
So far, they amateurishly breach and clear the apartments and stores. Just as they start moving on to the restaurants, they encounter their first Special Infected.
[Hunter Growls]
Smitty: What is that, a rabbid dog?
Jake: Check high and light up the shadows.
[Hunter Voice]
Dusty: Ahhh! Is he trying to rip me apart?!
[Guitar hit]
[Hunter Death]
Jake: You okay, Dusty?
Dusty: Yeah, just a few scratches. Could've gotten worse if he stayed alive longer, I guess.
Ox: Well, at least we know these unusual ones die like the others.
After surviving the Hunter, Jake, Smitty, Dusty and Ox proceed to the restaurants. With all of them having no useful item or survivor, they decide to head back to the Tour Bus.
But not before checking out a flaming gas station and facing their first Jockey first.
Smitty: Woah, look at that gas station.
Dusty: There could be survivors nearby. That fire looks recent.
Jake: Maybe, but the pumps could go off at any moment. Perhaps we should wait.
[Jockey Voice]
Ox: What the hell was that, Joker's unwanted kid?
[Jockey Voice]
Smitty: Ah! What the f— Get it off, it hurts!
Dusty: It's taking him to the gas station!
[Glock Pistol fire]
[Jockey Death]
Jake: Got it.
Ox: Damn, you really took Anthony's lessons seriously.
Dusty: Smitty! Back, back, back!
[explosion]
[Left 4 Dead 3 horde screeching]
Smitty: That can't be good.
Jake: I think the zombies are coming!
[gunfire]
[Tour of Death Horde Theme plays]
Jake: We need to get back to the Tour Bus!
After getting a taste of their first Panic Event, the survivors run and fight back to the Tour Bus safe house.
[Guitar hit]
Jake: Everybody inside!
[Tour Bus door closes]
Smitty: Punch it, Jake!
We're safe... for now.
