( MEMES ) TEST DRIVE >> 6

THE TEST DRIVE




Like it or not, you've been dragged from your world into 
the sanctum. It's a pretty nice city, all things considered--sci-fi, high-tech, glamourous.... Except, of course, for the giant dome encircling it, and the threat of glitching, contaminated zombies at your door. Looks like humanity's built itself a fortress that looks suspiciously like a cage, too. Toss in the odd memory blanks and the everpresent logo of Bifrons incorporated and it's enough to make someone paranoid.

The object of this meme is to get people familiar with the world of the Sanctum, and to try to see if their characters would fit in a sci-fi utopia such as this. Here are your options:

1. Intro: Waking Up. Make your intro post, folks. You wake up in a strange place, and get a strange transmission to go with it. There's a pair of glasses connected to some sort of communications network, but otherwise not much else in the room with you. What are you going to do? 

2. Environmental Glitching. You know the story of Noah? No? Now you're living it.  Sealed portions of the districts are overfilling with water, flooding streets, fields, and select city blocks. Do you climb up to get to safety, shut off the water, or find a way to break down the barrier to the next sector over? 

3. Genetic Altering. What it says on the tin. Except...it's not quite gone right, has it? Are you supposed to spit acid when you hiccup?  Are your insides acid resistant? No? Oh dear.  Warped experiments gone wrong, your augmentation has twisted around on you for horrific or hilarious results.

4. Memory Glitch. No one knows your face. You don't exist on the network. In fact...you're not all that certain you are who you think you are anyway. Haven't you always lived here?  

5. Military Training. Everyone's got to start somewhere. You're training the green folks, maybe you're one of the newcomers yourself. Maybe you haven't even touched a gun before in your life. Either way, you'd better start now.

6. Outside the Dome You're out and about without an armed escort, suited up against the atmosphere and dysthropes.  It's supposed to be a green sector in this run down shell of what used to be a suburb, right? Nothing could possibly go wrong

7. Wildcard. Choose your own adventure or create a cocktail from the presented options! The choice is YOURS.

The cyborg man frowned "Name's Marcus Wright." "I'm just as human as you are..." He tried to explain things as simple as possible "Listen, to put it straight somewhere in a different universe, there is going to be a war. He wasn't sure if this was going to keep THIS John Connor from shooting him.

Perhaps this Connor would have to find out for himself.

"What."

John just stares at him. He really, really wishes he had Ringer's gun right about now.

"No one claims to be human unless it's in question. So what the fuck are you?"

The rest? A different universe, a war? He could roll with that. Has been rolling with it.

Marcus crosses his arms "What am I?" "If I told you what I am, would you really believe it?

...
..

The man frowned, now cautious to what this John Connor would try to do to him now that he had to explain what he was.

I'm a Human... and that's what I want to be. "I'm a cyborg, half human, half terminator.

...
..

The man was very quiet...oddly quiet.

"Fuck. Fuck."

Okay this was...not good. A terminator? Here?

"Why are you looking for me here? You're the only terminator! Skynet doesn't even exist here, it never has, and it probably never will. What about your situation makes you go, okay, I'm gonna go find THAT guy even if I'm not where I started? Do I want to know?

Fuck. Probably not."

The man remained quiet for a second and then spoke up again "Main reason is that you are probably the only relatively familiar face here even if you are a teenager..

Well everything seemed to be going just fine so far. Just then, John explained the whole "Skynet doesn't exist here." thing. This shocked him. This meant no Star, no Kyle Reese and no Blair..

Does this John even know what happened to Kyle during his future?

"But you're not familiar to me. Jesus fucking Christ." John brought up both hands and rubbed at his face. "Alright so now we know each other. Great. Welcome to weirdsville, population too fucking many. Do you even know where you're staying?"
