Okay everyone, time for some fun and creativity! Today I had an idea for our humble site while looking at the Universe of Metro 2033 series. This whole thing combined with the fact that our members are from all over the world made me think...why not write short stories set in our respective countries? Here's the idea: each member will write a short story set in the Metro universe. The story will take place in their country. Don't worry! You don't need to live in a big city with a metro system! Each story must be posted in the writing section of the site (which is still empty!). Don't worry, this isn't a contest. There will be no winners or losers. It will all be about having fun and reading some great stories.

I'm pretty sure any country with a military would be able to rustle up enough guns for the post-apocalypse xD

True, but in my city the source of guns would be very inconvenient. We could only find them in one place, the military base which is miles away from the heart of the city and the subway stations near it are above-ground.

Perhaps some brave souls were able to travel there and grab a few guns? In my city we only have one army base that's been semi-abandoned since the 1990s and some Navy installations. Other than that I'm pretty sure there's a few illegal arms floating around.

I've got the introduction portion of my story done! Woo!
Figured out ways to make it work in South Dakota despite us not having metros of any kind. Luckily weapons are extremely common heh.

Well, I can't boast a great metro in my city (it's only one line of 6-7 stations) but for the sake of the RP I'll adjust the reality to my liking slightly. Weapons shouldn't be a problem because, well, it's Russia. There's a military base in most even slightly large cities.

I know that this was posted like a year ago. But with me living in Texas, it would be easy for me to find weapons.
