I thought I've seen everything.

[Rising (DayZ) 99]

So i've been playing for a good while now, even before bothering to look at the forums, and I thought nothing would surprise me. I've been betrayed, I've been lied to, Ive been tortured. I've seen it all...... or so I thought.

So after a day's journey, which in itself is another big thread, I was left with the unfortunate situation of near death and hounded by damn zombies. I spotted a survivor near the coast, he was hunting around the farms. I desperately needed a blood transfusion, because I'm not sure if i could survive more Matrix-inspired zombies. They are pretty damn good target practice I'll tell you that. Anyways I made sure the guy was unarmed, and then I approached him, or her rather, now that i remember I think the character looked slender. I had my gun up, I was unafraid. I walked up to her, steadying my crosshairs the entire way. I had control of the situation (Editors Note: What is it with you trigger happy kids these days, slaughtering unarmed civilians? Even if they have a hatchet, when you have a firearm, you should be in control. Sometimes there are more creative things to do than just shooting anything that move.) When she spotted me, she freaked out and booked it. I chased after her, texting "halt". Eventually she ran into a barn, I followed her. She ran into a small room, and I stood in the doorway. "I need a blood transfusion" I typed, and i once again made sure she was unarmed, and no sidearm at her hip, don't want no sneaky surprises now. Then I pull up my gear, and drop the blood pack near the doorway. "hurry up" I txted. I waited for almost a minute, no response, and all this time I had my gun trained on her. "Give me a blood transfusion, im dying" I typed again. I was blocking the doorway, there was no where to go, but I suddenly realized that maybe she was a newb and didn't know how.. so I explained in detail this time, how to pick up the blood pack, how to scroll the mouse to give me the transfusion. Ten seconds later, she slowly walked forward, and started to comply! Smart and friendly. Even if it was under a trained assault rifle, I felt a sudden joy of happiness, of hope, that in this world, people still helped each other!

My world colorful again, as did my mood. I thanked her gratefully in the chat, and told her to wait a sec while I rummaged through my bag to drop her some suppiles. I had food, drinks, and medical supplies in my bag. And then, in the next five seconds I still don't know what the fuck exactly happened. I didn't even realize there was a large door to my left. I was standing in a doorway of a small room in a large barn, but I didn't realize the there was a closed big door just behind me, and while I was looking through my bag, the door suddenly opened, and a zombie was there. I closed my bag and turned to shoot the zombie, thinking to myself "wtf? zombies can open doors now?" I don't remember if I fired, everything is still a blur. I remember hearing a loud BANG! and the player in front of me dropped dead. Head shot. My mouth also dropped, and I just stood there stunned for two seconds, before I saw the death message and realized there was a killer out there. I quickly ran and hid in a corner, still shaking in disbelief. I realized later that he was probably either walking by, or had camped there for awhile, saw the newbie rummaging around for loot, then saw me while an AK follow her inside the barn. How that door suddenly opened I still do not know, perhaps we aggro'd the zombie and it finally reached us, but the moment was freaky. I eventually snuck out the back door, and managed to circle around to reach the tree line that was between the coast and the farm, and chased the sniper away. I have seen cruelty, but not like this.

Damn you Rocket! I cursed in real life. Damn you for removing server chat! i felt helpless. I patrolled the southern coast once, hoping maybe she'd respawned and might be in the area, I could still give her the supplies and explain that it wasn't me that shot her in cold blood after her benedictory act. But there was no sign of her. That pretty much depressed me for the day.

Tap that before the mortis sets in, son. If'n ya get that dryhole, feel free to use her blood for lube before coagulation occurs.

So edgy and cool!

oh yeah I forgot that I passed out twice in front of her. Credit to her for not helping herself to my bag, or looking around for a hatchet to end me. I was in pretty bad shape, otherwise I would have hunted for sheep, literally.

i would say you shot her in the head.

.. or of course some random guy shot her whilst she was unarmed with no supplies leaving you as an armed and dangerous person with goodies in your bag to just walk out into rainbows an sunshine and a chance to get payback on him .. which is more believable ?

Had something similar happen to me once. Was all smug to the group I ran with--that finding people who weren't actually just KOS or backstabbers could happen. Rolled with the guy for a couple hours until he just dropped dead in front of me. Wrenched my heart. I stood there like a deer in the headlights for a second and then self preservation kicked back in and I ran out of town as fast as possible--no need for there to be two casualties that day. I just wish I could have reassured him that it wasn't me who shot him...
