You hear your alarm go off. You open your eyes slowly and see the back of your husband's neck. Still somewhat tired from the long work shift last night, and the two muggers that you ambushed in an alleyway last night, you realize that you'll have to force yourself up if you don't want to be late for work. Your husband seems to sleep through the alarm, not paying much heed to it at all. |

I groan as I wake up, slowly. Damnit... Oh well. I hit the off button on the alarm, as I get out of this crappy bed. I went to the kitchen to get my breakfast. Soon enough, they will pay for what they did to me... |

Halfway through eating breakfast, your husband arrives and joins you. "Got work today, babe?" He asks.
(A few things. First, I'll let you name your character's husband. Second, I have absolutely no idea how to flirt, so the speech up above probably looks really really forced. Third, even though we just started, I'm off to bed.) |

(Thanks for letting me know.)
"Yes. The repetitively usual." After saying that, I continue eating. Tastes a bit weird, but oh well. |

(Oh yeah, and her husband's name is Derrick.) |

"That's a shame."
(I am really awful at this, do you want to timeskip through the entire day and straight to nighttime?) |

(Timeskip until she arrives at work or timeskip once she arrives at work?)
(Also, your turn to post in-character) |

(Timeskip to once she arrives at work.)
After I get dressed in my work clothes, I skate to my car, which is in a bit in terrible condition. Worst place in the world, indeed. |

(That's just more confusing. Timeskip to or until, not both.) |

There's bound to be worse places than your car, but it's not in the best condition ever - And it's far from the best car ever, being nothing but a Toyota. |

Hm. Oh well. I look back at my husband, or my only surviving friend from elementary, before looking back at my Toyota. I then get inside and start driving. It's a bit awkward driving in skates, but I can manage that. |

After about a half hour of sitting in traffic, you finally arrive at your workplace.
Timeskip for the rest of the eight hour shift plus four hour overtime you need to work in order to afford rent...
You finish work at approximately eight at night, just as the sun is going down. You figure that you ought to get ready for a night of vigilantism... |

I know I'm keeping my work clothes on. I skate to where my bat is, pick it up, and head out into the streets to find some no-good doers... |

(What, no mask? Aren't you concerned about the authorities?)
After about fifteen minutes of skating, you find a young, probably twenty-something woman being attacked by two large men, both for her wallet and for 'pleasure', apparently. You can't see them very well due to the darkness, but you do know that one of them is bald and the other one has a crew-cut, with the bald one sporting a goatee. "You want to join in?" The bold one asks, withdrawing from his pleasure-seeking with his victim and eyeing you aggressively, seemingly not noticing the bat. |

"Join in to what? Getting a beating?"
I charge at the man, preparing to knock him unconscious.
(And yes, she will be eventually getting a mask.) |

Upon seeing the bat, the man quickly realizes that you intend to fight him, and as such quickly does up his zipper, and takes out a knife of his own. His compatriot does likewise, but it's the bald/bearded man who gets knocked in the skull rather than the haired/unbearded man. The man who was knocked in the skull collapses to the ground, most likely dead from head trauma, and the one with the crew-cut quickly gets into a defensive position. The woman who was being attacked ran, and attempted to cover up her parts and stop the bleeding for long enough to get to a hospital. |

I try to bash the bat onto that man's hand, where he holds his knife. That criminal better not stab me to death. |

He ducks, and tries to make a stab at you. He's clearly a street thug and not a professional, by the way, so it would be easy-ish to dodge if you feel inclined to do so. |

I leap, dodging the knife. After that, I would try to make a blow on his head. Better get a mask after this... |

His knife grazes you slightly, but not really that noticeably, and your baseball bat falls a little low, hitting him in the throat. I shall spare you the gory details and simply say that he's very visibly dead. |

I then look for some place where I can hide their bodies in. I must be feeling smart doing this. |

You see some bushes, although, in all honesty, a couple of thugs found dead is nothing new for the police. They probably won't really care. |
