Abstract gently puts a bookmark in his book and looks at the person coming onto the bus.

Benny:
 Benny looks around him and looks for a place to hole up in. A cheap motel, maybe.

Sarah smiled slightly, almost feeling at peace.
You know what? Fuck it. She'd go to the park.

After a quick moment to get dressed, she stepped out the door, locking it behind her.
The weight of her laptop in its bag rested lightly on her shoulders.
She had everything she needed - keys, laptop, wallet, pepper-spray (can never be too careful, etc, etc.).

There, she headed to the bus stop.

TURN 3

A 6 is rolled.

Sarah arrived at the bus stop significantly earlier than expected. Now she'll have to wait for a few minutes. Darn.

-----

A 1 is rolled.

Xantherus, looking out the window, realizes that this bus is on the part of its route where it has already passed the university. Crap. But, while looking out the window, he notices

A 3 is rolled.

Charles, who is trying to catch the bus, but much to his dismay- it's driving away without him.

-----

A 6 is rolled.

Stan manages to notice an opening between the two officers, and books it out of the alley. But, as he does, the officers draw their weapons and open fire. This is bad. As you break free of the mouth of the alley, you crash into...

A 1 is rolled.

Benny, who is looking for a place to spend the night. Both of you are knocked to the ground in the collision. Benny hears the sound of gunshots, notices the officers, and is reminded that he is a wanted criminal.

((When I started this game, if you had told me that by the third turn, most of the plot would revolve around the fickle schedule of a bus, I wouldn't have believed you, but here we are.))

Grab the guy I just crashed into, hurl him back into the alley in the hopes of stalling the police, then book it out of there.

((Well, hopefully something plotwise will happen soon.))

Hmm. Figures she'd get here early.
She plopped her butt on a bench and waited for the bus

TURN 4

A 6 is rolled.

Abstract, you troll around on a website called Pier13. You discover that in a corner of the site, there are forum games, including one that has been running a significant amount of time- Newtonian Happenstance.

You make an innocent-seeming character, and survive a few missions, leveling up your character enough before you then proceed to slaughter the other characters en masse through a series of unexpectedly successful rolls, becoming the series' main villain and generally being an arse about it, both IC and OOC. So when your character is eventually killed off in a deliberately gruesome and humiliating fashion, the game's GM, partsmart, not wanting to have to put up with such nonsense a second time around, refuses all your subsequent character sheets.

You have made a new enemy.

A 2 is rolled.

Xantherus gets off at the next stop (Sarah's stop), but exiting the bus, trips and falls onto the pavement in a painful fashion, being rendered unconscious.

A 4 is rolled.

With determination and patience, finally, the bus arrives at Sarah's stop. She watches an old man fall out of the bus. He is probably dead, from the looks of it.

-----

A 5 is rolled.

A 2 is rolled.

Stan grabbed Benny, and intensely hurled him into the alley. Stan books it away safely, but Benny is helped by the cops, who begin offering to take him to the hospital.

-----

Charles misses the bus. He's fired from his new job on the first day. Oh, well.

"Nah, nah, I'm fine. Bye."
Walk off into the distance as fast as humanely possible without alerting the coppers to my identity.

I run after the bus but misses it, I guess.
"Damn"
I try to stop a cab.
"Taxi, stop!"
