Mafia #26: Roadside Picnic the Game

The hover cycle floats just high enough to see over some strange looking blue-green bushes at the edge of the Zone. Not much activity can be seen from this point of view, but with all the noise last night, there has to be something big going on in there. Big Daddy decides to cruise the perimeter and see if anything can be found to trade. Or, maybe a short incursion in and back out...while it is daylight...
 
Half hidden behind cheap bed sheet turned curtains, she watches a trio of soldiers march down the street. Final scenes from the alien movie marathon on tv muted, Grace tries to draw as little attention to her home, to her living room as possible. Everybody is afraid of the operatives in the area. When nobody can tell stalker from human, it's easy for the strong to take advantage of the weak and claim mistaken identity later. After the bodies were burned. Nobody questions an Operative, not even another Operative and certainly never a Scientist and Stalkers... Stalkers just run.
 
Stalker from human... She catches that thought and shakes her head. It's so hard to believe Stalkers are still human, it's just the technology they use that is alien. But she supposes, when you begin to mimic invasive alien warfare, you lose whatever it is that makes you, you. Can a person fail at being human?
 
Yes..just ask any of our always mafia scum players...
 
Knowing tht darkness soon approaches Beth slowly ventures out, into the streets hearing the slight roar of a hover cycle she ducks into the shadows as Big Daddy goes overhead. Not knowing if he is a stalker or not she wishes to remain undetected. As he passes by she notices the Military operatives talking in groups near an old warehouse. Movement out of the corner of her eye, she sees shadows slink into the alley across form the warehouse. She decides its not worth it and quietly returns to her house.

a black market has formed, based on the trade of alien technology recovered from the Zone. Smugglers are called Stalkers,

Is that why you need to take a quick ride into the Zone?

What do you have to hide Grace? Why would a human/Civilian scientist be afraid of the military operatives?

Nope...looking for parts to make a water purifier....I hear someone wants to pay bucks to make their own water....
 
Quick note and I'm sure the other votes are just play (but just in case and for future reference) they won't count as they aren't in the proper format

You must vote each Day to lynch a suspected Stalker. You do so by typing IN BOLD, I vote to toss XXXXXX into the Zone.
