The Second Book: Chapter 2

Mission Briefing

(The second book of Trilogy opens to a random page) Character and Epoch were stunned that the robots would strike back so soon. It was a small force, easily handled, but they had just saved the valley only a week ago. Where were these robots coming from? The big city? It seemed like a good place to start.

  • Turn to the next page of chapter 2 in the second book.

As Character and Epoch made their way into the big city, they realized that there were no people around, only robots milling about. What happened here? Where did the people go. They needed answers and they needed them fast, but had no one to ask. Character was about to speak when they heard a man's voice bellow out over on another block. Epoch and Character bolted off in the direction of sounds, in search of more answers.

Epoch
Briefing

'It was quite a shock to see those robots strike back so soon,' said Epoch. 'If we act quickly we should be able to stop them with less effort this time.'

  • He / She agreed, but in he / she mind they knew it couldn't be that easy.
Epoch could tell that Character had reservations. He would have to discuss the matter further when things were calmer.
  • He / She said, 'I am kind of getting addicted to the excitement.'
Epoch frowned at Character. 'One should not crave danger and excitement. You may get what you wished for, but in spades.'

  • Epoch (Companion Boss)
Briefing

The man caught his breath. 'Thank you, kindly sir / ma'am. I've been busting robots for a couple months now.' He looked the pair up and down and realized something, 'You wouldn't perchance happen to be the ones who shut them down for the past month or so, would ya?'

  • 'That was us,' he / she said proudly. It was weird to be recognized.
'I am Character, and my mentor here is Epoch. What was your name?'
'It's an honor to meet you, sir / ma'am,' said the stranger as he extended a hand in thanks. 'You too, Mr. Epoch,' and he shook that hand as well. 'Folks call me Mercenary. I am usually a gun for hire, but taking out these robots is a job I do for free.'
  • Mercenary looked at both of them and admitted, 'I'll be honest. It's been tough taking out th...
And so the story continued. The duo was now a trio, and Infinity and his robots would have even more to be on the watch for.
  • He / She smiled. 'I bet if we had a third person in our group we could take out the robots even faster.'

  • 'You must have us confused with someone else,' he / she said.
He / She wasn't one to brag about his / her exploits. 'You have a name? I am Character and this here is Epoch.
'Well that's no matter if you are or aren't, you saved my skin and now I owe you one,' the man began. 'Name's Mercenary. I usually sell my services to the highest bidder, but the robots... those I take out for free.'
  • Mercenary looked at both of them and admitted, 'I'll be honest. It's been tough taking out th...

Clue
Mercenary's Story

The cowboy known as Mercenary seemed to have as big a grudge against the robots as Character and Epoch. He would be a great asset to the duo in the coming days.

Debriefing

And so Character and Epoch were joined by the rough-around-the-edges Mercenary. Mercenary's reasons for joining them seemed obvious, but in reality he was holding back a key piece of information. One that could possibly be the key to destroying Infinity and the robots once and for all.
