The Otmel Strangler

The first week after i started playing, I froze everytime I heard a helicopter pass by if I was outside.

Ah yes, the itch.

Haha, looking forward to seeing the results. If I wasn't in crazy hermit mode I would join.

Well, the first time was when me and a friend were playing toghether for the first time. We were both pretty new at the time and he was keen on seeing some action. We ran around and raided some villages, held standoffs in churches and stuff like that - against zombies of course at this point. In retrospect it's a damn wonder we didn't attract more attention than we did - i guess we were just half a step ahead of trouble all the time. We cleaned out Green Mountain and some Norwegian pops out of the bushes with only starting gear (Timmeh I believe he was called). In the beginning we just ignored his advances and decided to leave him. But since he kept drawing zombies all the time we shot them to help him out. Then my friend got the bloodlust and begged me if we could shoot the son of a bitch, which i accepted. Even though I didn't really fire any shots I gave the all clear, and it really felt as if we had crossed a big red line. We had a hearty laugh about it and left, even though we felt kinda bad. The next thing we knew my friend was shot in the back while holding on to my gear as i was checking a deer tower. I ran into the woods without my guns, and watched, traumatized and helpless, as the perps looted his body. Some time later I checked a deer tower and instinctively noticed a strange presence. I scanned the woods and noticed some guy hiding behind the tree. I shoot him dead despite my shitty, frantic aiming as he tried to hide and make himself even smaller behind the tree. Turns out he had a PDW - stashed in his BACKPACK. Oh well. And then there was the dumbass running around the corner holding his flashlight. But that was his fault for scaring me.
