1N T1M3 (In Time movie based RP)

[Corrupted keyblade 64]

This is based off of the movie In Time

 

Currency is your time

Your life is your time

Time, is all you have

 

Your life truly starts at 25, after that you stop aging physically, the rich can live to be 100 but they will always look 25. Your clock has a year on it when you are born but you can't use it until you are 25, and if you are in the ghetto that year goes by pretty fast

 

If you want to buy something you have to use time, what happens when your clock hits zero? You die, no way around it. There are different ways to get money, gambling, working and fighting.

 

Fighting is when you and another competitor practically arm wrestle except you grab onto the forearm and try to have your arm on top the others arm. But fighting is really a fight to the death you try to drain your opponents time while they try to drain yours as well.

 

Your time is a glowing green tattoo like thing that shows the time you have. It has a 13 digit limit which goes from Years, months, days, hours, and seconds. Now just because you only have room for 9999-99-9-99-99-99 doesn't mean you can't have more. There are little devices to where you can put it against your wrist and it'll store your time till you need it later

 

Mainly only the rich survive, they have all the time in the world while the poor have no time to spare.

 

There are minutemen who are basically a big gang that resides in the ghetto and steals the poor people's time.

 

Then there are Time Keepers who are the cops of the world and when they see a huge amount of time getting added to one person in the population, they have to investigate

 

Then there are the Rich and the civilians of the Ghetto,

 

Rich can have tons of years on their clocks letting them practically live together unless they do something foolish while the Ghetto civilians could have a week on their clock, if they are lucky.

Everyone is accepted so lets start.

 

(I am going to change one thing from the movie, fighting is illegal and Time Keepers can come to the ghetto to stop a fight)

 

Allen was in the middle of a fight like always. He was losing pretty bad, his opponent had a month but Allen was dropping past his last 24 hours. His hand was down on the table which meant that his time was being drained. He was struggling to pull his arm up. Seconds passed and he was already at 4 minutes. Then he got to 10 seconds and watched his opponent lose focus and watched Allen's time. Allen smiled as he then twisted his arm and slammed the other guys arm on the table the guy was caught off guard and was in shock that he was losing. Allen had his arm pinned against the other guy. The guy then dropped to one day when he could here time keeper sirens go off. Allen got distracted and his arm was flipped back over Allen pinned his arm back around and then drained all of the time but one day. He then backed away from his opponent and was apart of the crowd to watch the Time Keepers

[Pandora2721 46]

Eri was a few feet away from this fight. He leaned agenst a wall of a building watching. He had a smile on his face.

"and this is why you avoid people..."

He thought to himself and then hurd the sirens go off. He put his hands into his pockets and started to walk away.

"its definetly not safe now...i have things to do any way...like get more time...."

He sighed and glansed back.

[echo 69]

Skye looked at the fighters arm, " There is one day left." She told one of them then looked around for the winner. It''l be someone with time. She thought looking at their arms. Skye spotted a man blending in the crowd. She let it go and noticed someone walking away. She pushed through the crowd following him. She learned that if you walk your guilty, down here everyone runs. Skye followed from a distance letting the other keepers take care of the loser.

[Pandora2721 46]

Eri had a strange feeling that someone was following him. He started to walk faster and then walked deep into the city and into a small run down builging. He slamed the door.

"i sware if i get blamed for something im going to kill someone...."

He locked the door.

[Corrupted keyblade 64]

Allen sighed in relief when someone took the blame but his conscience go the best of him he couldn't let some other guy take the blame for something he did, but he wasn't going to allow himself to get caught as well. Allen stood in the crowd and yelled "HE IS STEALING MY TIME" Everyone around them ran off. He was hoping that time keeper would follow after. Allen ducked behind a table that was knocked over due to another fight and waited to see if that time keeper would walk and leave that guy alone.

[frenchfrey 5]

Today John was scheduled to fight against one of the fellow fighters, but something at home made him late. As he begins to arrive to the place where most fights are hosted at in the Ghetto, he could see Time Keepers all around the grounds, and is deciding to high tail it out of there. He noticed a guy running towards a building and a Time Keeper tailing him, and another hiding behind a table. Knowing that trying to help any of these people would get himself caught and lose his well earned time. Before anyone noticed him, he turned around, put his hood over his head and walked away.

[echo 69]

Skye hesitated at the exclaimation but ignored it. She stood infront of the door then continued to kick it open and walk inside. She grabbed the man's arm and looked at the time. " Three weeks.... Where did you get this time?" She asked her eyes as cold as ice. She looked over the man, he was definatly poor, poor enough to fight. He fits the profile.

[Pandora2721 46]

He glared at her.

"get your hands off of me!"

Eri puled his arm back. He looked at her with a pretty pissed off look on his face.

"you dont need to know where i got this!"

He backed up a little.

"if you think i started that fight....your wrong....."

Eri crosed his arms.

"your one of thes rich people that dont care about anyone but themselvs......"

Eri said straight out to her.

[Junko 2,815]

Yami sighed and looked around. everyone was hearding in all directions, some guy was behind a table and one just pulled a hoodie up to his head and walking away. Might as well approach the one plaing hide-and-seek, she thought and started walking towards him. i wonder how much time that guy had left, 3 weeks? 3 days?, she thought as she came closer

[Corrupted keyblade 64]

Allen saw Yami and stood up. He noticed she was walking towards him and he rolled down his sleeves covering up his clock. Allen dusted off his pants that were covered with dirt from his work day digging ditches for various companies. "May I help you?" Allen asked the girl walking up to him. He slid his hands into his pockets and waited for her to reply

[echo 69]

Skye punched him in the stomach. " You will tell me where you got the money." She said flatly standing her ground. She had delt with people like this before, they were just too proud for their own good. " If you admit to the fight I'll cut you a deal alright?" Wondering if she could convince him to confess or if she would have to take him in. " However if you refuse i could just take your time right now...." She threatened.

Edited April 2, 2012 by echo

[Pandora2721 46]

Eri's eyes widend a little and held his stomach.

"a deal....?"

He thought to himself.

"what if i said i did....what would you give me....?"

He baked up a little when she said she would take his time away.

"so.....you would kill me......whouldent that make you the bad guy then....."

[echo 69]

" I would just be ridding the streets of another rat, nobody would miss ya, am i right?" Skye looked at his face and dropped the topic. " Anyway the deal, by the time we time keepers get to the seen of a fight, everyone is already gone, i need someone on the inside to find the fights. Just to find them nothing else, simple enoguh for ya?" She asked knowing he couldn't refuse. " You wouldn't have to worry about time again, you would always have enough to live."

[Pandora2721 46]

"she needs to shut her big mouth!"

Eri crosed his arms.

"so you want me to spy for you guys....?

He glansed around a little.

"and if i do this....you will give me free time?"

He was a little intrested. He only had 3 weeks left and if she was really going to go through with her deal he wouldent have to worrie any longer.

[echo 69]

Skye nodded. " An hour a day, if youuse it wisely, you could get out of here." She said now certain he wasn't the fighter, but he was involved in something else. " All i need you to do is call me with this whenever you see a fight." She said holding out a cell phone, "Just dial 1, never use this for anything else." Skye turned and walked out of the building. " Yami." She called her fellow time keeper, " Has the fighter been discovered?" She looked at the man that Yami seemed to have been talking to. She looked him over noticing his clock was covered. How convenient... She thought.

[Pandora2721 46]

Eri noded and then took the phone and looked at it.

"ok...."

He said and watched her walk out. A smile came accross his face.

"haha.....i dont have to worrie any more......everything is going to be fine!"

He put the phone into his pocket. He walked out of his hide out and walked down the street.

[Junko 2,815]

he sounds so casual, she thought, as if nothing happened. She raised her eyebrow. "Out of curiosity, you're hiding behind that table because..." she asked. She glanced at his arm where the clock was suppose to be. Is there a minute man around here, she thought as she still can remember everyone running off. If so, where could he be? Yami just stared at Allen to see if he knows anything

[frenchfrey 5]

John continued getting away from the big ordeal that just occurred. Then, he noticed someone that he recognized, it was the same person he saw running away. So, he decides to follow the guy, something in John's instincts troubled him, and whenever he gets this way, he always has to see it through. He keeps his distance from the guy, making sure not to make himself known.

[Pandora2721 46]

Eri kept tight hold of the phone in his pocket as he walked down the street. He would glans around every once in a while.

"......now....i just have to wait ans see what happend......but i swar if that girl was lying about anythng she said.....shes not going to be living very much longer."

He thought to himself and continued to walk. He looked at the clock on his arms.
