Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 2

=i keep kissing her, my one hand pulling her closer, the other still playing in it's area=

In me now.

I keep kissing, each getting more urgent.

=i go in, slowly, using my hands to hold her close and to run along her spine. i slowly get faster, going deeper and deeper. i can hear a moan or two leave her, as well as myself. my tongue chases her's and vice versa. i feel her peak and i get close. my hands go lower and pull her closer, letting me go in as far as i can before i reach my peak. i look into her eyes and speak=

Need. Want. Have. You I love. You...love...I...love you. I love you. Get it out. Need. Can't stop. Need. I love you.

=i hold her close, breathing in her scent and feeling her body. tasting her tongue and lips, and hearing her breath. My eyes meet hers, and I can see myself splintering in the refletion=

Need. Get it out. Must. Help. I love you. Have. Help get it out. Can't.

=Ash opens her eye's her head still spinning she speaks quietly=
Ugh.. Where..?

=She try's moving=
What...? I can't remember what happened..? Wait...

=She thinks back remembering the alley and being attacked, her heart begins to race again=

(He opens his eyes)
(Unabale to sleep)
(The image)
(Burned into his head)
(His photographic memory cursing him with that image)
(He hears Ash)
(He squeezes her hand)

@Ash
Hey, hey.
Its okay

Draco..?

=She looks over to Draco=
What happened..? How did I get here..?

=Her nausea even worse then before=

@Ash
Hope and Andrea brought you up to a more stable condition
Hope brought you back here.

(The image continuing to haunt him)
(The blood)
(He himself begins to feel nauseous)

=She looks at him confused, before touching the mark the knife left on her neck=
You where there..? Where did he go..?

@Ash
I wasnt there, there.
Hope had tended to you.
I could only see what she saw.
He had escaped.

Hope...?

=She continues to look confused, her memories still difficult to recall=
The man... He... Knew us..?

@Ash
Im not sure.
But there was this other man.

(His nausea increasing)

Voutan was here.
Things got. Ugly.

The man. Not sure if it was the same man that had done this to you.
Had made a bet with Voutan.
The bet was that Voutan would kill us for money.
If he failed he would have to pay with his life.
I tried to stop them.

(His nausea increasing ever more)
The man that I had dealt with. His name is Jack.
I tried to stop them.
Jack had. Severed Voutans head.
I tried to stop them. I tried.

Wait what!?

=Draco's words mostly passing in Ash's confusion=
When did Voutan get here?

=She drops her hand from the mark on her neck=

(He squeezes her hand)
@Ash
I dont know.

(The image still burning)

=She thinks about what Draco said in silence=
Jack..? He could of been the man..? What happened..?

=She thinks of the image Draco talked about=
Voutan...

=She feels her nausea get worse, she drops one of her hands to her stomach=
I feel like I'm going to be sick...

=She looks back to Draco=
What happened to me..? Was I drugged...?

@Ash
Were you feeling nauseous yesterday?
It could have been from the sewers.

(Fighting his own nausea)

Andrea said nothing of drugs

=She shakes her head, sitting up slowly=
I don't know if it was the sewers... This... Feels different

=She drops her head still feeling dizzy and confused=

(He rubs her back)
@Ash
How so.

=She sighs, still trying to recover all her memories=
I... Don't know... I doesn't feel like the drugs... I've never felt this before...

=She looks back to Draco, her nausea still making her uncomfortable=
I'm sorry... I didn't mean any of this to happen...

(He looks into her eyes)
@Ash
Hey, it is not your fault.
Not your fault at all.

=She turns away from him=
It is... I shouldn't have gone out knowing people are after us..

Ugh... Now I feel even worse...

=She sighs to herself, running her hands though her hair=
The man.. Who attacked me... He said there was bounties on our heads.. He knew all about us...

(His anger begins to rise towards the attacker)
(He keeps the anger out of his voice)
@Ash
It isnt your fault. Stop thinking it is.

As for that man. I dont know.
How could he know about us?
Bounty Hunter?
I dont know

=Her memories of the attack coming back clearer now=
I couldn't believe it.. He had a picture..? Whoever he is he has a lot of information...

=She touches the mark left on her neck again=
How..? It all seems so unreal now..

@Ash
What was the picture of?
What kind of information?

The picture...

=She thinks to herself for a little while before replying to Draco=
Just our names... But I felt like he knew more then he was telling me..

(He sighs)
@Ash
What is with these people and knowing us.

=She tilts her head towards Draco=
There's a lot of money on out heads... It pays to know these things...

=She looks back around the room, her head still hazy=
The thing I'm worried about... Is if were wanted alive.... Or... Dead....

(He sighs)
@Ash
They would get more money if we were alive.
They would kill for bragging rights.
I dont know.

=I wake up and stretch and look at Voutan's bed=

Early bird..

=I put on my armour and retrieve my weapons=

Eh.. he can pay for the room...

How can value be put on someone's life..?

=She looks at Draco, watching him=
What are we going to do..?

@Ash
Running has not worked.
They always find us.
Always.

(He sighs)

I dont know.

=I walk out the hotel door and stand on the balcony=

We can't fight them all?! Saying in a place like this isn't going to help us.. Who knows who's watching us...

=She glances to the window watching the sky=
God... I need some air... Maybe this sickness will just go away...?

@Ash
I know.
I know we cant stay here.

(He looks out the window)

=She looks away from the window, talking quietly=
We need to find the others... Get back to the ship.. Its not safe here...

(He looks back at her)
@Ash
I agree with you.

(He kisses her cheek)
(He stands up from the bed and goes to his armor)

=She watches him walk over to his armour=
If I had mine... Could I have fought them off..?

=She looks down at her hands, before looking back to the window=
Why did he drug me..? Just so he could escape..? Why come back..?

(He puts the suit on)
(Attaching and holstering his weapons)
(He walks back to Ash)
@Ash
Whenever you are ready. My dear.

=She looks up to him from the bed=
Where are we going..?

@Ash
The ship.
We need to get out of here.
Unless you still want to talk to Nikolaus.

=She shakes her head=
I wouldn't know where to start looking..

=Her eyes meet Draco's=
How are we going to get back..? We don't even know where we are...

Darn it.

@Ash
I really need to start thinking these things through.
Perhaps Andrea can ping the location?

(He sits down next to her)

=She looks at him next to her=
We could still go out..? Maybe there's a map somewhere...

=She sighs wishing she brought her tac-pad=
Is there anyway you can contact them..?

=Jack wakes up and goes into the room's kitchen. He grabs a Jaffa Cake and a cup of tea and heads out onto the balcony after grabbing his things. He sees an ODST on the adjacent balcony. He waves=

Jack- Good mornin, soldier.

(He sighs)
@Ash
I could try.
I just dont know anymore.

(He looks at her again)

=I look at the man and nervously wave at him and continue to look off the balcony=

=She laughs, still feeling nauseous=
Your telling me you have an AI in your head and you can't do anything..?

=She smiles=

=I look up at the mirror. sigh, and dress myself. I open the door to my room, and enter the hallway. The rooms of the others are floors below mine. I attache all my Equipment and go sit on the roof. it begins to rain. lightly. the air feels like trouble. like trouble started and trouble finished. everyday. something new. people enter. people leave. Death. Life. War never changes....=

Memories.....

=He finishes his Tea and his Jaffa Cake and heads back into his room. He gathers the rest of his things and writes a note. He goes out into the hall and tacks the note to Draco's door. He knocks on the door and then heads down the hall=

Note- Two rooms down towared the lobby, Room 274. Something for you there.

(He laughs)
@Ash
I have many people in my head.
Alright, Ill try.

(He puts on his helmet)
Andrea.
Try and get a signal out to the base.
Try and contact them.

*Yes, my brother. Locating signal. May take awhile*

(He hears a knock but ignores it)

=I walk out of the Hotel room and catch a glimpse of the man leaving=

Suspicious.
