Chapter 4: Exodus Part 5

=She looks at Muroin sadly that her mouse is now gone=

=I go and put my arm around her. I gesture that Snow is nuts. I point at him and spin my finger next to my ear=

=She looks at him do so. She twiddles her ear around her finger in the same way=

Dormii!

=I shake my head no=

Jeez, next are you going to teach her to rip out my throat?!

=I try to make it simpler, I point to snow, then my head, then I make a scrambled gesture=

=She sticks her tounge out at Muroin=

Muroin. Muroin. Muroin.

=She giggles and throws the ball at him. It bounces off his helmet. She giggles again=

(He sees Ash nodding off)
(wanting sleep)
(He smiles and lays her down)
(Kissing her forehead)

May sweet dreams come to you.

(He stands and goes to the corner of the room)
(He sits down)
(He decides to comm Dormii)
(Comms)

@Dormii
Hey everything good down there?

=I sit still, trying to keep calm=

So, this oxygen? You say it kills her?

=I laugh harder, and pat Aura on the back, giving a large grin. I gesture to sit down=

=comm to Draco= Everythings good. We made a friend, even if we can't talk to each other. Wanna see?

=I open an external video feed to Draco=

Now, obviously, we can't use hand signals to try to communicate with her forever.

=I lay my head back on the pillow=

Someone needs to teach her english.

(he sees a video feed pop up with the new Spartan)
@Dormii
Sweet!
Whats her name.

=He goes over to Diorrmy and notices a change in his visor. She pokes it a few times=

(He sees her start tapping the screen)

Whoa.
Curious I see.

=i clear my visor and give a shush gesture. To Draco= Her name is Aurafell. Oh, and Snow is now Moron.

Who let this reject into the Spartan program

=I chuckle a bit and pick up the ball=

@Dormii
Aura huh?
Interesting.

=She goes over to the bed and pushes Muroin out and makes a motion as if she wants to sleep=

=I drop the ball and hit the flood with a thud and grab my arm in pain=

AARRGHH! YOU SON OF A...

=I pull a knife from my belt=

|I begin to wander around looking for people. I've left my armour in my room along with my comm unit

Hello? Anyone?

Hmm.......

@Dormii
Snow is now Moron.
I like it.
Suits him well.

(He looks up at Ash on the bed)

=I nod and gesture if we should leave. I pick up Snow= Hey, let it be. She doesn't know.

=She spreads the blanket back out on the bed, gets undressed, and climbs in before dozing off after a long day=

=I poke her slightly, to ask if she wants us to leave=

Schiess!!

=I put my hand on my visor=

Have some decent manners...

=She sits up in bed before realizing that in order for them to leave the room, they would have to unseal the door. She goes over to her armor and brings it back over to the bed. She sets it's filtration systems on so it keeps a steady supply of gas in the room before climbing back under the blanket and into bed=

Well, why doesn't anyone do that when I want them to?

=I turn around while I laugh and I run into Dormii, knocking my helmet off=

No...

(He cuts off the comms and looks back up at Ash)
(Peaceful)
(Beautiful)
(He smiles and sighs)
(He stands and walks to the bed)
(He takes off his armor and helps her take off hers)

Cant be comfortable sleepin in that stuff

(He lays down next to her)
(He sleeps)
(No dreams come to him)

=I look away as she does that, to Snow= Hey, Moron, I think we are leaving.

=I head to the door and open it, quickly leaving and pulling Snow with me. to Snow= You ok?

=I fall down in front of Dormii, choking to death=

Not.. the way I wanted to die..

=He pulls me out and I fall unconscious, it is all black.. almost like it seemed before..=

Moron, you sure are a moron. =I pick him up and carry him to the medbay. I pass the messhall and see Jay= Hey, give me a hand?

=She sees Tar still in the corner. She goes into her backpack and pulls out a blanket. She covers him up before going to bed=

=to Jay= I'll be right back. Please don't wreck the table, completely, okay?

=i quickly rush Snow to the medbay and lay him down on a table. i run back and join Jay at the table= Okay, sorry. Life in possible danger.

You ok?

(A dream begins to form)
(He tries to block it away)
(Knowing)
(Just knowing it is pain)
(He hears Hope's voice)

Hope-Let it through.

Dante-Why, its going to be a painful one. I know it.

Hope-Trust me

(He lets it through)
(He sees his parents)
(Andrea)
(Tears begin to form in his closed eyes)
(They are fine)
(Alive)

=i move to sit next to her= Hey, you there? You ok?

=i hesitantly reach out to her arm=

=worry shows up on my face as i take of my helmet= Hey, just me. I didn't mean to startle you.

I shake my head slightly, snapping out of the daydream. My hands drop to my side and i give a little smile

Hey

What have you been up to? I got a story to tell you, but it can wait.

Nothing just..... Nothing

I'm not going to ask, but if you ever want to tell me, I'm here.

Want to hear my story? It involves a new person, Snow's almost death, and making a new friend, but i think you would prefer the near death of Snow, right? =i smile jokingly=

I shake my head with a displeased look on my face

New person. That isn't good.

Well, let me tell you what i know.

First, Draco and Tar were talking with her in the courtyard, then she went into the brig to sleep. Snow and Zeru decided to go inside. Problem though, is that the new person can only breathe a toxin, no oxygen. Snow almost killed her by opening the door, and i almost killed him for it. Anyway, the new person can't talk very well, or understand us. She understands hand gestures just well, but nothing beyond that. Her name is Aurafell. I think i have a recording of her on my helmet if you want to see.

=wakes up=

ah jeez I'm still in...

=notices the blanket on him, then turns to Aura=

she's sleeping...where did moron and dormii go?

=sees the pile of clothes on the floor=

She's Naked!?

=face turns a shade of red behind his helmet=

=She wakes up and sits on the edge of the bed rubbing her eyes. She looks up and sees Teirtun in the corner. She smiles and waves at him=

jeez puts some clothes on! (insert nosebleed here)

... why is the inside of my helmet wet... Damn, i'v been drooling...

=go's to take helmet off=

Wait that's right... I'll die...

=waves back=

=I watch Jay think, about what I don't know. I stand up and give her a kiss= Look, whatever it is, I'll try to help, whenever you want me to.

=I gather my things and go outside to train. I head around to the back of the base for some peace and quiet=

=She gets up and puts some clothes on. She gets a gas mask out of her bag and sets it up. 3 days worth of gas before a refill is needed. She opens the door and heads into the courtyard. Her stomach rumbles and she heads into the forest=
