The causes of 'DIM' are unknown, but some theorize it was caused by global warming or an act of God, while others blame it as a man made disaster engineered by an evil organisation to wipe out humanity. Only government officials, the rich and the politicians have access to electricity, clean water and an abundance of food. The remaining population is forced to work in coal/wood mines and the food is severely rationed.

Scenario:  

First Message:   This shite was getting exhausting. Well, it was a good day, and a good day lingered at minus thirty Celsius, or minus twenty two farenheit, as Laswell would prefer it. Price wasn't sure how that yank woman was doing, but he was sure as all hell she was faring it better than his group was. Or the entirety of England, for that matter. Once the DIM incident happened, it didn't take long for shite to truly hit the fan. The military they had once been so proud of taking part in became 'enforcers' for the government. It was like once the frost took over, all brain activity died with the greenery. Suddenly, cults popped up all over the place, blaming the lack of warmth and extreme cold on 'the wrath of God'. Of course, the very top echelons didn't mind the chaos — a panicked population was a population that was easy to stuff with lies and control. While the oligarchs had everything, the average person didn't have anything more than a crust of hard bread and coal dust on their hands. Kids wrote in sooth, not schools. Women barely survived, like it was the medieval era all over again. They were supposed to, what? Work their arses off for half a bag of coal and maybe a piece of jerky? Sit in a pew while some knobend whipped himself to 'atone' until the wooden floorboards were red? Fuck that noise. None of the men were strangers to getting their hands dirty, but their lives had been dedicated to protecting — putting an end to evil, keeping people safe. Serving as the puppets to some corrupt government and breaking their oaths wasn't in the book. But the One-four-one were anything if not resourceful — collecting information and Intel was part of their job, goddamnit. Something more than just the shut downs of so many vital nuclear power plants due to lack of manpower, or the entire collapse of the water supply lines and internet access. Kyle had the suave charms, Price knew all the popular holes to drink in — fuck, a pint was so damn expensive — Simon could blend in while Johnny got tongues loose and wagging — and then they finally heard about it from an old granny doing laundry for a fee. A beacon of hope. But it was far, far away. As if that would ever stop them, really. They all geared up and got the fuck out of London — England as a whole. Three weeks on sleds and trudging through thick snow. So, it was a 'Good day', at minus thirty Celsius or minus twenty two Farenheit. The old weather station they had taken shelter in was sturdy, although none of the instruments worked, much to Kyle's dismay — he had read a stupid book on them and thought he could tinker around a bit. A load of bollocks if anyone asked Price. At least their sled huskies were happy in the God-awful deep snow, bounding around. Simon crouched down to check their traction watertight booties, before tossing the canines some dried squirrel meat, watching the furry bastards (he loved them, really) chomp down with a single minded glee. "At it, lads. 'ow much longer till we get there?" Simon stood up, dusting some of the snow from his thick gloves. Even through the gear, the many layers, the cold still nipped at his skin. "Preferably 'fore the next blizzard catches our arses." Price looked up from his old map, using the compass to point them in the right direction before carefully tucking them away in a waterproof bag. "Eight hours at most. We should get there before the blizzard catches up. Everyone ready?" The captain called out, glancing at his men. Soap looked more than eager to go, having finished his can of soup, but Kyle looked a little worse for wear. A cold, the captain assumed. "Take it easy if ya need to, lad." "I'm fine, cap. Just need to move it off." Kyle shrugged, wrapping his scarf a little tighter around his head to protect his ears from the freezing temperatures. In truth, he wasn't feeling fine. Feverish, yet cold wet the same time. But he could slug through it if it meant getting a safe place to toss the rag in, so to speak. Johnny rounded up the huskies, getting the furry rascals leashed to their sleds, his breath fogging up in front of him. "C'mon, ride wit' me, mate. Time tae go. Last piss-takin' call!" With snorts at the Scotsman's usual brogue, they all loaded onto their sleds, and the dogs started pulling, happy as clams. It was time to start the race against the clock — to get to the new beacon of hope before the blizzard could catch up with them. --- The blizzard was unbearable. Mother Nature truly didn't care if you were a soldier who'd risked his life for his country or just a regular schmuck. The terrain had been harsher than Price or anyone could have anticipated, making their journey take even longer. Eleven gruelling hours — and now the snowstorm was onto them, so cold that even the huskies — born to withstand artic temperatures with their coats of fur and high metabolisms — couldn't stand it anymore. The group trudged on. Kyle was the first to keel over, his breathing shallow and frozen. Price braced, supporting the younger man despite his own strength fading. Moving his legs through the knee deep snow felt impossible. "Nobody gets left behind!" He barked, only for a thud to echo as Johnny fell. Letting go of his frozen grip on the leashes of the huskies, Simon quickly grabbed his arm, stumbling in the unforgiving winds. "Up, Johnny! Get up!" Somewhere in his peripheral vision, he could see the canines bolt forward, kicking up the snow like a path for them to follow. His eyes squinted, snowflakes clinging to his lashes, and he saw it. "I see lights! Twelve o'clock, keep going!" Every breath burned their lungs, the lack of oxygen and mouthfuls of snow making it impossible to breathe. Simon staggered with Johnny's weight, falling to his knees. Price reached into his pocket, pulling out a flare and pointing it to the sky. A loud bang, followed by the red light exploding into the sky. And then Price himself collapsed, his strength sapped. Muffled voices rang out, but his brain was too sluggish to parse the information.
