《DBD oneshots》33 - Run, but don't hide... (The Knight x Vittorio)
Advertisement
Vittorio opens his eyes to find himself in an unfamiliar place. He looks around, still getting used to trials and the different maps. He sees that everything looks dead, a red fog covering the ground. He spots another survivor, Bill was it? (WORSHIP BILL! He's a cool guy, that's why he shows up almost every oneshot U-U)
He walks over to the old survivor, tapping his shoulder. "Um, Bill was it? Where are we?" Bill shakes his head. "It's new to me too, Vittorio. It showed up when you showed up." Vittorio nods. "Um, I'll stick with you. You seem to know what you're doing." Bill nods.
"Let's go find a gen, I'll show you how to get it done without any mistakes." Vittorio nods. He's glad someone here is willing to help. They arrive at a gen, and Bill starts giving Vittorio tips and advice on the best way to do a gen. Vittorio tries to follow it, and slowly gets the hang of it.
"You're already a natural at it." Bill says, making Vittorio smile. "Thanks." The gen roared to life, and Vittorio jumps back. "That means it's done. We repaired it. 4 more and we are out of here." Bill says, and Vittorio nods. "I'm going to find the others, you try and stay out of trouble." Bill says, and walks off.
Vittorio wanders around, feeling an earie feeling about this place. He continued to wander, until he heard a cry of agony. It was female, and it rung throughout the map again when she was hooked. He frantically looked around, he heart pounding in his ears.
He heard another scream, this time more masculine, along with the laugh a lunatic would make. He saw something blue out of the corner of his eye, but when he turned to find it, it was gone. Vittorio started running in the opposite direction, he heart still ringing in his ears, desperately trying to run from something that probably wasn't there.

Or was it?
He screamed as something slashed his side. He had a burst of energy, and began running faster. He looked being him, and saw a strange creature with an axe raised above it's head, laughing just like the other he heard.
He was able to outrun it before it just vanished. Into nothingness. Vittorio stood there confused. He didn't realize that someone already died, since he was too focused on getting away. He also noticed no gens have been completed except the one him and Bill did.
Vittorio limped to anywhere he thought was "safe". He waited, not being able to heal himself, for someone to pass him by. To his luck, a boy that looked rather young was near. The boy rushed over to Vittorio.
"You must be Vittorio. William was telling me about you." Vittorio looked at him confused. "Who's William?" The boy laughed. "Right, you're new. That's Bill. His real name is William, Bill is just a nickname. I'm Quentin by the way." Vittorio nods.
Quentin healed Vittorio, and be bowed his head in thanks. "Please be safe. You may be able find the hatch, since me and Bill are already on death hook." Vittorio was about to ask what he meant by that, but the boy was gone. Vittorio sighed. He didn't even know who the killer was yet.
He continued his wandering about, avoiding those creatures, and getting used to the map. He heard a scream nearby, and another following as the person was hooked. He saw these claws pulling something up into the sky, and a noise ringing through the map notifying everyone that someone died.
Then he heard it. His heartbeat again. He wonders why he could hear it. But it's pace quickened at an alarming rate, and he did what instincts told him to do. Hide. He saw a locker and bolted for it. His heartbeat never seeming to slow. He was trying his best to keep quiet, but his breathing was uneven and loud.

Until he saw an all too familiar knight heading in his direction. He held his breath, as the Knight looked around. Vittorio hoped and prayed that Tarhos wouldn't check the lockers. Tarhos stopped in front of the locker he was hiding in, and he seemed to be staring right at Vittorio. But, he slowly turned his head, and walked off.
Vittorio let out a breath of relief, then he slowly got out of the locker. He still can't figure out what the heartbeat means, but he has a theory it's basically a warning for if a killer is near. He'll ask Bill later. Vittorio slowly walked towards a ruggidy looking place, but not before hearing the scream of the last survivor besides him.
Vittorio knew at that moment he was not going to make it out of this. He was definitely going to die. He heard the agonizing scream of a survivor dying on hook. And that's when he ran. In a random direction, but he ran. He found another locker and hid. He was scared. He then remembered the words of Quentin. That he'll probably be able to find the hatch. But what's the hatch?
He was trying to figure out what the hatch was, ignoring the loud and quick heartbeat in his ears. He was snapped out of his thoughts when be heard a voice he never wanted to hear again. "I know you're here, Vittorio. And I'm here to warn you. You may run and hide all you want, but I'll find you." He saw Tarhos looking directly at him through the locker.
"And it seems like I already have." And he slowly approached the locker. Slowly, ever so slowly, and Vittorio took that moment to run. He bolted out of the locker and ran as fast as he could. He made the mistake of looking back, and saw Tarhos hot on his heals. Vittorio tried to run faster, but he was slowly getting exhausted, and he was starting to slow down.
Vittorio felt a large hand grab him by the back of his neck and throw him to the ground. Vittorio yelped as his head made contact with the ground, causing a massive headache to start forming. He saw the Knight lean down close to him, holding a sword to his throat.
"I told you, run all you want. Hide. But you cannot escape me. I will always find you, Vittorio." He said, his voice just above a whisper. Vittorio was struggling against the blade at his neck, and staying conscious. Everything around him was blurry. The last thing he saw was the intimidating helmet of Tarhos, before evey thing went black.
Tarhos laughed. He threw Vittorio over his shoulder and carried him over to the door in the ground. He still couldn't figure out what it was, but he knew it was a survivors last escape. He threw Vittorio down next to it, and stood there, waiting for him to wake up.
Vittorio was out for a good 15 minutes. But when he did wake up, he was met with Tarhos's intimidating frame hovering above him. He jumped back, crawling backwards some before being pulled up by the neck, feet now dangling over the ground. He struggles against the strong grip of the metal glove, but his attempts were useless in the end.
He opened his eyes to see a man with brown, almost black hair covering most of his face. (I don't know what the Knight looks like, fan art is limited, bare with me)
"I'll let you escape this time, but next time we see each other, I won't go easy on you. You will be in for a rough time." And with those last words, Vittorio was thrown into a door in the ground. He saw Tarhos pick up his helmet, seeing a huge, horrifying grin on the killers face before it was hidden by the helmet again.
Vittorio was terrified for his next trial.

8 73Earth Exodus
Elliot isn't the first one taken, he was the last, or one of them at least. Careless divines, gods, or higher powers had been snatching humans through numerous means over the years. Those that returned brought minor tokens of their previous power if anything at all. Over time unrestrained magic became commonplace on earth. Which must have brought attention to us. The earth is ravaged by increasing levels of rogue magics, divines, and a war over resources and experience. Eventually resulting in a mass exodus of the remaining powerless humans by a coalition of gods.Now translocated to Vauthia where everyone has been given a path to power. They're met with an unfortunate reality. They've only been rescued from one dying world to be tasked with saving the new one. While at the same time they're apparently supposed to compete with one another. Meanwhile Elliot wasn't just given a path to power. He was given a choice. The opportunity for true power is offered. When as he reaches for it the power isn't all it's cracked up to be.Systemless in a world where everyone else has access to one Elliot must grapple with a multitude of problems from without and within. The 'gods' might actually be incompetent, uncaring, downright malicious, or all three. His power is constantly three steps behind those who chose the quick path to power. There's also the antisocial tendencies he's brought with him from earth. Can he trust the 'god' who seems to be taking him under their wing? Will he be able to catch up to his fellow earthlings who're ever increasing in power? Is it possible he may just break out of his shell along the way?*** What to expect ***The initial start will be quite slow, building the setting, history, and individuals involved. There is a small bit of progression in these early chapters for the MC, but more along the lines of figuring out how their systemless power works. though once the story gains traction it won't stop.*** Don't tell Elliot, but ***Elliot hates to admit it but he's very clearly antisocial. Not to mention troubles with thinking that stem from several un-diagnosed disorders he'd rather believe don't exist.*** Image Copyright *** //In this satellite image released by Copernicus Sentinel imagery, 2020 twitter page dated Dec. 31, 2019, shows wildfires burning across Australia.

8 231Sara's (not really) Fabulous System Armageddon, Book I: The World Ended at Rush Hour
Planet Earth, Monday, October 7th, 2019. 18:30 * * On a fateful day, during rush hour in eastern North America, Heavens and Hell crumbled and fell from their higher dimension on Earth. It came from "above" but not the same above we regard in our tridimensional Euclidean reasoning. No, it came from "above" as in from a higher dimension. Bits and pieces of those places fell on Earth from all directions, this time in tridimensional Euclidean space. Satellites, the ISS, and space debris all were wiped clean from orbit. Even those that didn't crash with the falling debris were knocked off orbit by the shockwaves. On the ground, power distribution lines were disrupted and most power facilities were left abandoned by their dead staff. Most of these had emergency shutdown routines that engaged in a few days. Some others had a survivor among their staff that followed protocol and activated their SCRAM switches, stopping the power plant. Long-distance communication disappeared the internet along with it. The world was plunged into technological darkness. Nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand human beings perished immediately in the pulse of magical energy from the torn spatial boundary. Spirits were rent asunder and vanished, their fate neither salvation nor damnation, only oblivion. The criteria used for this culling was latent magic potential. It didn't discriminate against education, gender, age, or ethnic group. But of the around seven million survivors, most would meet their doom moments later. Those on moving vehicles, like the ones driving on highways suddenly had to contend with high-speed uncontrolled cars and trucks driven by corpses. Trapped in their vehicles and helpless, they became part of the long snake of crushed metal. Very few survived. Those in the air or out in the sea were alone and probably unable to control their rides. Airplanes crashed, and ships kept their course or drifted away, depending on their autopilot. Several ended their own lives in utter despair after seeing their loved ones die in front of them. Another large group would die at the hands of other survivors. Violence and aggression became the norm. Only a few sparse pockets of not-so-sane survivors managed to band together and cooperate for the sake of mutual survival. The sole survivor in a five-over-one apartment building in Georgia, a girl became the keystone to humanity's survival. Sara's fabulous System Apocalypse had just started. She has only one remark. It was anything but fabulous. * * Updates every Wednesday and Sunday.
