Trace started to cry. "is he gone?" he asked one of the relatives.

The year 2200
Pelen regarded the two.
"My husband may tolerate you but I will not. Our people will care for him the as we always have. I won't have you sully his body any more then you already have Brigand."
Turrin quickly interrupted.
"Thats enough Pelen!, Kael saw fit to let these men in and we will not question his actions. Especially while he lay vulnerable." He turned to Trace "He lives yet though barely, That mutant wounded him worse than we had thought. Fear not. He has vowed to live, I've never known him to go back on his word."
Peled simply glared.
"Stay away from my family murderer."
"As you wish. I wasn't expecting you to say yes. I'll leave you alone now. I'll even leave this place forever if you want me to. I won't deny I have killed. But I will not stay where I am not wanted. Kael was the only one keeping me here. If he goes, I'll go. I'll search for my own path. One without killing, one with peace and tranquility. But allow me to warn you. This planet is doomed. In five year's time, something the size of the moon will crash into this planet. I have been reading the charts of the before people, ever since I noticed a star that seemed to be growing bigger. All their charts point to only that one thing."
They regarded Trace for a moment before Pelen's face softened and she nodded.
She took Trace by the arm and guided him into the tent. Inside Kael was laid upon the grass facing towards the open top of the shelter. They could see the night sky through the canopy of fruit trees. Kael was surrounded by a circle of his family members and torches were set in the corners. A few faces turned to regard them as they came in but most continued to watch, tend, eat, and wait.
Kael's weak voice wavered in the air suddenly. "Jayce, bring him here."
-…. ya do relize i was fightig cojo right……-
* notices that keal is dying and pulls out 3 clear lollypop's (<stops time) gives one to xu who put's it in her mouth and stick one in my own mouth *
Dead Carl: *time warp echo* xu we shall see if this man values his life like to live…
Xu: how brother?
* grins *
Dead Carl: we offer him a deal not a bad one but one so we do not have to hide in the shadows i do not want that for you my sister… we shall ask him for a place call our home… and we shall protect the city from not only others but… jayce as well…
* walks to kaels tent and eneters family members and trace is inside kael is lying on ground i walk up and sets a lollypop in his mouth allowing him to be in the same time warp as we are so we may speak alone *
Dead Carl: kael do not panic you are in a time warp at the moment…we have to discuss some things kael…
Xu: it's very important.
Dead Carl: you are temorarily healed for your injuries cannot affect you until time begins again in other words while like this you are invincible… xu tell him…
Xu: you wish to live do you not kael? we offer a deal for you…
Kael looked around suddenly clearheaded. There was a piece of candy in his mouth. It tasted terrible. His injuries no longer hurt. For a moment he thought he was dead until he saw the vampires and heard what they said.
"Why should I trust you mutant? What kind of deal would be worth betraying my values?"
* eyes turn red *
Dead Carl: i am no mutant! i am one of few left of my race! we have been around longer than humans if anyone is a mutant it would be human's!…
Xu: brother i am human…
Dead Carl: sry my dear sister
Xu: we have been protecting this town for over a year and the one you call jayce is still filled with hatred for grounder's…. an old man had stolen a single apple from a vendor and was prepared to kill the man. my brother paralyzed him with the kind of lollypop that only a vampire can make we have millions of lollypop's each with it's own power. but my brother here he is how you say gifted… he is only half vampire and he is half human he has psycic powers. but he refuses to use them because of our father…
* looks at dead carl*
Dead Carl: listen the point is beleive it or not we are on your side kael if we wanted we could take this city apart but we have not we have kept it safe. we have been living in this city for a long time we have helped you when you needed it you just don't relize it…
*pause*
Dead Carl: i have somthing that will heal your injoures in a matter of seconds and all we wish from you is a house not a hut a house for i cannot be upside down from
-DM NOTE: Feel free to introduce your own elements guys but don't push it. Vampires are fine, elder gods appearing from the earth and demanding fealty whilst Mr.t Rises from the dead to find hitler's hidden robot army isn't-
"What proof can you give me of your honesty? How do I know that I bring no monster in to destroy my kin?"
-DM NOTE: The houses in KaelTown are huge and subdivided into apartments for each family from the shelters. There are currently three with plans to erect a fourth in the New Settlers area. see map for details-
"Fine we have a deal, you'll have to settle for a cabin until the new house is finished. You can 'hang' from the rafters there… Unless you want to share an apartment with someone for a half season that is."
Kael regarded the pair
"Will you keep your presence a secret? I've no idea how I'd explain you two. It will be bad enough reversing my order to kill you on site."
with that they sealed their deal and Kael took the candy out of his mouth.
* as kael took the candy out of his mouth dead carl pulls out the healing lollypop *
Dead Carl: well xu it's done… we got it
Xu: yea ya think he will keep his word?
Dead Carl: yes he will…
* with this dead carl writes a note and sticks it on lollypop it read *
Kael,

Carl Hellinou A.K.A. Dead Carl
* i place it inside of kael shirt and fled the area and removed lollypops*
-New character. Name is Wolf, and that date is correct.
A lone person Enters KaelTown. He is wearing a brown Robe that has a hood. Man, I'm hungry… Thought the Hooded man. He then put down his hood. His wolf-like ear showed for a second, but he put them down to match his hair. He then want up to a meat seller and puts a gun on the counter. "I'll trade you this for some meat!" Said the silver haired man. "I'll give you ten pieces of meat for it." Said the vendor. They traded and the man left with his meat. He found a cabin and sat against it. (It's trace's cabin) He then began eating his meat. He could no longer stop his ears from going back to the way they where. "Wow! I have not had Meat like this scents 1964!" said the man.
-again enough mutants, please keep any new characters as human-
Mutants, vampires, Brigands, cannibals, trade agreements. I should really just kick everybody out and go back to the way things were Kael fumed from as he snaked his way out the main gate. He made his way halfway to the old highway before a snapped branch alerted him to the Vampire's presence.
"I've come what have you to say Carl?"
-again enough mutants, please keep any new characters as human-
-Wolf is not a mutant. He's more of a race of Wolf-humens that was around at the date 500 BC. Cause of radionion, He can't go back to human from or become a wolf. He is the last of his kind cause they where all killed at the year 220. In his time line, he is about 25.-
A man was walking towards Kaeltown. This man had fiery read hair, styled up, that made his head look like it was on fire. His black robe was blowing gently in the wind. With the breeze, his hair looked like it was on fire even more. He was a lone man, but he seemed to be a nomad, as he had no weapons on him. It was a mystery to all how he had no weapons, traveled alone, and yet, had no scratches from the voracious and feral animals that usually attacked lone stragglers for an evening meal. This man's name was Lyle the hunter. Noone knew how he got the name Hunter, or even what he hunted. It was even a mystery to himself. This man never got any sleep, but he never had a memory of anything that happened at night. This time he knew what he was hunting though. A little voice in his head said if he killed Jayce the assassin, he would finally get some much needed sleep. He thought he must be going psycho, to be hearing voices, but he did want to sleep. If it were the only way, then he would kill this "Jayce".
* dead Carl is alone xu is asleep *
Dead carl: there is 2 things i must tell you
* hangs upsidedown from the tree i was standin ontop of *
Dead Carl: 1 there is a crazed man that is coming to town he will kill many people unless i do somthing sbout it… i have to seek him out… i wish for you kael to care for my sister… 2 use this as a way to enter the village without hiding…
"Restrain him if you can. I seem to making a habit of adopting killers lately. I'm amazed it hasn't turned against me yet. I already instructed the guardsmen to let you pass freely within the outer compound." Kael inquired curiously though mildly disconcerted the fact that Carl was using his feet to cling to the tree.
"Should things ever go poorly for you I'll care for Xu as though she were family. You have my word on that."
I finally found Kael. I walked up to him. "Kael" I said. "I'm sorry. For the way I was acting. You're right. I shouldn't kill."
—————————————————————————————
Lyle was in the city now. The crowd was large. He had been able to get in by saying he was a travelling doctor. He didn't like to kill if he could help it. Hopefully, this "Jayce" would be his last victim. He would not kill anyone else, even if they got in the way of his mission. He started asking around for the man. A kind old gentleman looked at him strangely. "Jayce tha Assassin? Neva heard a 'im. On'y Jayce Ah know is our worka an' police chief. 'E intraduces 'imself as Jayce tha Worka, not'in' more." The response was the same for everyone else he asked. Only, they were more understandable. Lyle was beginning to think this assassin wasn't hear. "No" the voice in his head told him. "Thissss Jaycccce they are talking about and the one you are looking for are the ssssame persssson. Do not be deccccieved. Thesssse people do not know hissss true nature. He issss a murderer, and assss ssssuch, he musssst be punisshhed. You will be able to ssssleep oncccce again when he issss dead! That issss what you want, issss it not?" Lyle thought for a minute. "Yes, I wish to be able to sleep again. I am ever so tired. (yawns)"
Kael turned to look back over his shoulder. The vampire was gone. He then turned back to Jayce.
"You may not want to kill but like you once to me 'somebody will always want to kill you' Be warned Jayce, you made enemies with your ways. I'm not sure your newfound heart will convince them to think of you lightly. For my part I tell those I can to spare you."
With that they started walking back to the inner compound. Once inside the second wall Kael noticed a strange man leaning against Trace's cabin. Hooded and eating meat. Raw.
"Jayce, we really should start posting guards on the inner gates too."
