Meaning of life, hitchhiking, and urban fantasy.
Had I rolled 175 for science at the end I could have just copied Douglas Adams work XD
He continued to run with all his might, although he was sure no one had seen him. How he managed to escape unnoticed was beyond him. However, he knew he didn't have long, and he had to act quickly. People had to know about this. He had is laptop in bag, and a list of e-mails for people who had subscribed to his recent scientific newsletter. But first, he had to get as far away from that facility as possible. They would already be scouring the area looking for him. As he made it to the nearest road, he saw a car driving around the corner, and quickly jutted out his thumb as he had seen hitchhikers do in several movies. With a sigh a relief, he watched as the vehicle began to decelerate and eventually come to a stop. The driver rolled down the automatic window and smiled warmly at him "where too buddy? I'm heading to new York city". He looked at the driver. New York city seemed as fine as anywhere. "What a coincidence, That's exactly where I'm headed" trying to remain as calm as he possibly could. With a final look over his shoulder, he hopped into the mans car. As the vehicle began to move, he pulled his laptop out. Using the wireless internet card, he typed up and sent four e-mails from names he'd picked of the list from an alternate, secrete e-mail. The people where ones he decided where curious enough, and capable enough to use this information. And four people, who where localized in New York City, where he had held many conferences in the past. "This is Dr. Edward Thomas. I don't have much time. Even now powerful men have begun a search for me. I will not live to see the end of the week. Please listen, tomorrow at 2p.m. I need you meet me at (*random location*), it is urgent. Nothing we know is true. I have discovered something that changes our very existence. Our very meaning. I need your help desperately.".
The 4 characters arrive at the mentioned location only to find the Dr. dead. Appearances suggest a mugging attempt that went wrong, but after the E-mail they had received, the characters are skeptical. After a little sleuthing before calling the cops, they discover a flash drive that appeared to be thrown during a chase. After speaking with the cops, they eventually search the contents of the flash drive and discover research on a secret company, but are quickly ambushed by a man with supernatural strength. The course of the game consist of the 4 characters trying to unravel the mystery that the late doctor had uncovered, while running for their lives from some shadowy organization that somehow defies the laws of reality. An organization that has a secrete so large, it may just tie into the very meaning of life itself.
.....you know, I don't really have any experience writing my own stories, but I think this may have potential. It was fun either way :)
