The end is near! ...so how will you go into the night?

[Megajoule]

When Virtue crashed hard with one hour to go, two friends and I resolved to run the final mission of SSA2 on Beta.  One last Nemesis plot to foil, one last heroic, desperate battle to fight.  We blasted our way through the hordes of empowered hibachis Jaegers, beat down a few (dozen) Warhulks, and took on the giant steampunk robot threatening Blyde Square... and won.  A final victory with friends at my side.

And then Virtue came back up, briefly.  I was able to get back into Atlas and take a quick demo of everyone on the steps before it stuttered and crashed again.  Back into the queue.  Never give up.  Back in.  Just me and a couple of others now.  I lifted off...

Months ago, during the first Unity Rally, I said that as this was the first game I found that let me fly, I would, right up to the end.  And that's how it happened, with my first hero streaking through the skies over Atlas Park, where it all began for her.  And for me.

I was on Virtue at Echo: Galaxy City with some of the roleplayers I hadn't seen in ages.  But the server crashed minutes before midnight.  I decided to log into Pinnacle with a character I had there and lit a torch at Atlas when CoH finally ended for real.

I spent my last few min. in Atlas Park. I destroyed some of the little villians hanging around the parking lot and made my way to the steps. When I got there my eyes welled with tears as I saw all the Freedomites on the steps with lit torches. So I changed into my SG costume (The Angelic special from the wedding pack) and as a mutant I unhid my wings and Halo. I am the Leader of the Neon Angels so I thought in best to represent. There I turned and looked up at the flag and flew up to it and landed. I then turned to Atlas with tears in my eyes and said "This is where I began, So this is where I will end." a few seconds latter the server disconected. I then grabed my ipod and looked for the right song for my mood. But all I could think of was What am I doin' hangin round by the monkees. And for some odd reason the song fit.

All my best, to all of you. Shandi

I did my last TPN itrial, spent some time in the Shadow Shard, pouncing on the Rularuu and went to AP33 to fight spawned AVs and said goodbye to the world.

My last few minutes were spent in AP2 on Infinity, on my first level 50.  I was with my brother (we had just gotten his first level 50 on Maria's arc, "A Hero's Epic").  I lost it when they called five minutes.  I have no regrets about my final hours, but I will sorely miss everything I never got to do :(

I ended logged into Guardian after being dumped from Virtue like four times. It wasn't how I wanted to go. I knew no one on Guardian. I wanted to be on Virtue login as my name sake.
