Chapter 6: Complications

(He looks up to the sky)
(He shakes his head)

It will come. At a later time

(He sighs)

It will happen

=i wake up in the hospital. bandages on all of my cuts and bullet holes. i wave off a doctor and limp my way along until i find myself on the roof. Draco is here=

Hey Draco.

(He doesnt look away from the sky)

@Dormii
Hey

=i lie flat on my back on the roof=
How's things? Ash okay? You okay?

(He closes his eyes)

@Dormii
I dont know

=i stay silent for a moment=
I don't know what to say. We did get two more people. Tar-tun and an Elite, Senox.

(He sighs)

@Dormii
Thats good....i guess...

Yea....also, I got pelted with rocks and shot a few times on my way here. Same for Zeru, minus the rocks.

(He shrugs)

@Dormii
We cant go anywhere can we.
Without constant attacks.

I guess we can't. We can stay, be somewhat safe from the UNSC. the other option is to leave and keep wandering, never staying in one place, never getting to know anybody...I'm not sure that's the life anyone wants, though.

(He sighs)
(Silent)

Yea, I know. Great choices. Stay here and be attacked all the time, or leave and be alone forever.

=She lifts her head looking at the box next to her=
I... I'm sorry...

=She turns around sitting up and reaching over to Draco's bag which lied on the bed=
There...

=She pulls out the data chip holding it up to the light before securing in the box=
I... Haven't looked inside...

=She looks in at the disorganised files and photos reaching down for one sitting back at the desk=

=i get up, slowly, painfully=
Well, I'm going to go try and find Ash, see if she is okay. I'll comm you if I need you.

=i start walking down into the hospital looking for Ash=
Hey, Ash? You in here somewhere?

=She finishes reading the file dropping back in the box=
I can't believe it...

=She drops her head looking over to a piece of paper, she reaches for it=
I have to... Its the only way...

=She pulls out a pen and begins writing a note=

=i continue walking through the hospital until I see Ash in a room with a box of stuff. i walk over and knock on the open door=
Hey, Ash. What's going on?

=She looks up from the note tears in her eyes, she wipes them away folding the note away=
Nothing... I'm just... Thinking...

Anything you want to talk about?

=i try to look as non judgmental as possible, noticing the tears she is wiping away=

No...

=She looks back at the folded note quickly=
Really I'm fine...

Whatever it is, I'll try to help, as much as I can. I won't tell anyone if you don't want me too. That is, if you want to tell me.

=i point at the note. i stand waiting at the door=

=I sit on the cargo door of the Pelican, take out a Ration and begin eating=

At least I have an escape plane if things go sour

=She pushes the note away=
Really... Its nothing... I've got to do something...

=She looks at the door waiting for Dromii to leave=

Okay, okay, I understand.

=i put up my hands=

Just tell me one thing, should I tell Draco? This looks like something important, something that affects both of you.

=i put my hands behind my back and notice a few cuts bleeding through the bandages. i mutter=
Ah, crap...

=Tar and I walk through the hall=

Tar: do you know where everyone is Kurbis?

no, not at the moment, not with this hangover killing me....

=She shakes her head unable to look Dormii in the eyes=
No... You don't tell anyone... Any... One...

=i walk over and put my hands on her shoulders=
It's okay. They will accept it. Don't worry. When do you leave?

=I walk back outside as Tar-Tun is with 'Scythe. A human young pelts a rock at my head, I 'ROAR' at him and go to pull out my Curveblade. He runs away. With a brown sludge on the back of his pants.=

These people are like Brutes... Dumb, smelly and need a haircut...

=As I goto walk back into the Hospital, a mob of angry, smelly Humans surrond me. One of them drops his ration... It looks alot like...=

@The Mob: BROCCOLI!!

=tar sees the Broccoli of doom=

@sen, Senox Run!

=She shakes her head pulling away from him=
I told you... I'm not doing anything... Now will you please... Please just leave...

=She looks down at the note=
How...? How does he know...?

@Tar: Not today Tar-Tun. The 'Broccoli' has been attacking for too long. We shall run no more. This. Is. War.

=I grab the human with the 'Broccoli' and put my curveblade by his neck.=

@'Broccoli' Human: You have allied yourself with the 'Broccoli' you must pay.

=As I go to finish him off, the rest of the Mob try pulling me down. I smash one humans head against the ground, while bending anothers arm back far enough to hear a 'crack.'=

=i start walking away=
Okay, okay. And if you are wondering how? Leaving a note instead of telling people means you don't want to be stopped, not even from Draco. Crying means it's something significant, possibly life changing, and the hiding of them further enforces that you don't want people to know. I may be a monster, but I know people. You are a good person Ashlie Cole, whatever you are looking for, I hope you find it, or them.

goddammit Senox!

me: What's going on...?

=Tar runs up to sen trying to restrain him=

Dude!, Calm down!

=I fling Tar off of me as more people join the brawl against me. I elbow another in the face, puch the smalles human in the browl four times in the gut. I 'ROAR' again.=

@The Mob: You are allies of the 'Broccoli' you must be stopped!

=I rip anothers ear off.=

=She tries to ignore his words her arms covering the note, tears in her eyes=
Didn't I tell you to get out!

=She doesn't look at him, her eyes trained on the note beneath her=

Tar: Kurbis go get the others!


=I run in the Building=

Dormii!!! Draco!!! Ash!!! Weneed your help!!! It's an EMERGENCY!

(He opens his eyes)
(Glazed)
(He falls onto his back and begins to shake)
(His pill bottle comes out of his pocket)

@The Mob: You are PATHETIC!

=I smash two of the mob members heads together, causing them to bleed and as one goes to punch me in the face I bite his arm, tearing a piece off.=

All this battle... It...

=i call from the hallway= I am out!

=i see Scythe running up=
Scythe, what's going on?

(He begins to feel cold)
(The shaking continues)
(Pain shoots through his body)
(Tears begin to fall)

@ Dormii: Senox is on a... killing spree! (<---to be said like in the game)

That voice, really not necessary. C'mon, where is he?

=She sighs looking back to her note, darkness fills the room=
I know... How can you forgive me for this... I can't even tell you...

=She folds the letter up placing in inside a small envelope signing Draco's name on the front=
Goodbye... I'm sorry...

=She picks up the box again the data inside, she sighs as she walks to the door closing it behind her=
I have to do this.. Only then.. Only...

=She looks back once stopping in her tracks, a smile forms on her face as she remembers all her moments with Draco=
Goodbye... My love...

=She fades into the crowd leaving without a trace=

=I 'ROAR!' once again as I break another Humans jaw. One incredibly bad smelling human goes to stab me, I twist his arm grab the blade and thrust it up his mouth (So it goes from underneath the jaw.) I smash anothers head onto the floor, with full force. He doen't get back up.=

(He begins to feel warm)
(He tries to think of the time)
(He focuses on Ash)
(The shaking begins to slowly stop)

=i hear Senox roar again. i hurry down to where it came from=
Senox! What the hell are you doing?!

=I grab hold of a human and throw him into two others, then I punch another in the face.=

@Dormii: I am destroying the allies of the 'Broccoli'!

=I punch another in the chest six times.=

Well, will you freaking stop for a second? Now everyone hates it!

=i grab his curveblade and step away from him=
Are you going to stop now?

=I look up from my food and see Ash in the crowd, I look back down to retreive my food. I look back up and she was gone=

=I see a beast wrestling with the local population and I pick up my rifle and run to it=

=I look at Dormii, while holding another member of the Mobs head in my hand.=

@Dormii: Hand me my blade Dormii Fortuni...

=I point to my Energy Sword.=

@Dormii: Or more blood will be spilt.

=I walk to Dormii=

Yo Senox... Calm down,..hmm... Hey Senox want to see some magic!?
