[Police Academy Squad] Apocalypse Rule Horror Stories

The only romantic pairings are canon ones. The members of the Police Academy group are platonic.

No original major characters.

Major character deaths.

Comedy and tragedy can coexist. Non-typical bad ending warning.

Before the apocalypse begins: the five of them joke around and bicker.

Hagiwara Kenji: He died at 22. What's it like to come back to life one day and find all your classmates older than you?

Matsuda Jinpei: Four years later, he followed his childhood friend to the grave. He did it for the greater good!

Morofushi Hiromitsu: He followed his classmate's lead and floored it. A month later, he died in the line of duty, all to leave Zero with a lasting memory.

Date Wataru: He died at 28, in the most undeserved way. This teaches us that it's not enough to obey the law yourself. You must always watch out for people around you breaking it and putting you in danger.

Furuya Rei: He's been barely clinging to life without dying, and now he's completely baffled by this other world he's ended up in.

After the apocalypse begins, they look at the survival rules in their minds: no way to laugh.jpg

Apocalypse Survival Rules:

Phase One (30 days):

0. Some ordinary people awaken special abilities.

1. Do not trust strangers you meet after the apocalypse begins. Even if they are friends of people you know, do not speak to them if you didn't know them before the apocalypse.

2. Do not casually eat plants or animals offered by strangers. Any consequences are your responsibility.

3. Before drinking any liquid, make sure there is no water-element ability user within five meters.

4. At night, never look directly at the moon with your naked eyes. You may observe it by other means.

5. At night, everyone except fire-element and mental-element ability users must be asleep by 10 p.m. Every night from midnight to 1 a.m., all mental-element ability users must observe the moon indirectly to block the hunters. In rainy weather, everyone must find an enclosed space and protect themselves.

6. Keep as far away as possible from mental-element ability users who fail to observe the moon on time. Keep as far away as possible from non-mental-element ability users who look directly at the moon.

7. If you hear beasts howling, ignore it. If you hear sharp laughter, close your eyes and move away from the sound.

Phase Two (30 days):

1. Pathogens appear.

2. Only mutated plants and animals are edible.

3. Ability crystals can be seized, and can be obtained from the brain stems of pathogens.

4. Water created by water-element ability users is safe to drink.

5. Do everything in your power to protect yourself, and do your best to protect every teammate. Fighting alone is not a good strategy.

6. After being infected by a pathogen, ability users will randomly develop weakness, a high fever, mania, or bloodlust within 24 hours. They will die within 48 hours and become infected. A very small number may awaken a second ability.

Phase Three (7 days):

Disasters such as tsunamis, blizzards, and earthquakes occur. Day and night are reversed, and Cthulhu Mythos creatures invade.

No food is needed.

Good luck.

Phase Four (60 minutes):

The number of survivors is tallied, and rewards are given according to ability level. All humans are returned to their original world.

Theme: Only those willing to persevere can make all their wishes come true.
