LBT Fanfiction / Darwin's Soldiers Drabbles
« on: September 12, 2009, 10:26:05 PM »
These are various Darwin's Soldiers drabbles I will be putting together for my creative writing class. I may decide to expand on some of them but I am not sure about that yet. Note that these are not canon unless I state that they are canon.
For those who have not heard of the Darwin's Soldiers universe here is a summary (thanks to LettuceBacon&Tomato):
In the first RP, Pelvanida Base (a secret military research facility in the Nevadan desert) was attacked by terrorists.
One of the terrorists, Hans Donitz, switched to Pelvanida's side and helped defeat them, but not before they built an Einstein-Rosen Bridge, a device capable of transporting one through space and time.
In the second RP, James and a large team of ex-personnel from Pelvanida Base discovered an unethical and illegal underground project called Dragonstorm. They invaded the base with intentions to shut the project down.
----------------------------------------
The first one is below.
It is set during Darwin's Soldiers II. It expands on the alternate plan for how our heroes enter Pelvanida.
-----------------------------------------
Entrance
It was a hot night, typical of Nevadan summers. Below the clear sky, the moon and stars shone on an infinite sea of rocky desert slashed by a single highway. The highway below was as empty as the vast expanse of desert that surrounded it. There were no cars on this desolate stretch of highway. Except for two.
The first car, a large SUV, sped along the empty highway, its powerful high beams penetrating the darkness. The driver, an anthropomorphic Clydesdale horse, turned off the radio, which was softly playing Mars: The Bringer of War by Gustav Holst.
“You guys okay back there?” he asked.
“We’re trying to sleep.” A groggy female voice replied.
“Sorry.” The Clydesdale sighed and noticed a sign in the distance. It read “Route 140”.
A large pickup truck followed the SUV. The pickup truck’s high beams were nowhere as powerful as those of the SUV but they were adequate. The driver, an anthropomorphic bison, was blasting Kenny Loggins’s Danger Zone through his truck’s speaker system.
For several hours, the two vehicles drove through the empty desert. When the SUV finally stopped, it was near what seemed to be an abandoned gas station. The pickup truck soon followed and the driver disembarked.
The Clydesdale turned off the engine and opened all the doors. “Okay guys, time to rise and shine.”
The first person to exit the SUV was a skinny, somewhat scraggly haired man. He groaned a few times as he stretched.
“Zachary,” the man looked at his watch, “it’s 3:30, in the morning!”
“I know James, but this is the only way in without getting ourselves shot.” Zachary replied.
A young woman disembarked from the SUV followed by three other men, and an anthropomorphic hawk cyborg. They proceeded to stretch and walk around a bit before Zachary opened the trailer that his SUV was towing.
The trailer’s occupants, a man in a ninja outfit, an anthropomorphic chameleon, an anthropomorphic wolf who appeared to be cut in half and an anthropomorphic iguana disembarked. They two walked around to get their bearings and to revitalize their torpid limbs.
“An abandoned gas station?” the chameleon said, disgust evident in his voice.
“Quiet, Cale, there may be something here. Not is all as it seems.” The ninja replied.
“Yeah whatever, Kagetora.” Cale replied. He quickly struck a small electric arc between his thumb and forefinger to serve as a flashlight. He along with Kagetora began exploring the gas station.
Zachary headed for the back of the gas station and stopped by what seemed to be a bathroom except that the door was made of heavy steel not wood. He then quickly called everyone over to the “bathroom”.
“Well, this it, Pelvanida’s emergency exit.” Zachary replied.
“Let me guess, we enter through here.” Alfred replied.
James nodded. “Right you are.” He then tried the doorknob only to find out that it was merely a solid piece of steel. “And we’ll need your construction expertise.”

Aisha, Dr. Landon, Alfred, Dr. Zanasiu, Zachary, Werner, Hans, Kagetora, Cale, Neku, Slash and Hawkeye appear in this fic.
If you don't want a character used in these drabbles please tell me so as I need to use them in order to make these drabbles make sense.
