Chapter 6: Complications part 3

=I lose myself again=

shit man, the other day you were killing mass murderers, and gambling and betting your life, now you are just well, pathetic...

@Jason : Yeah, I'll be right back.

=Goes to get his drink=

Just Coke? What is he drunk?

=Brings back a case of Coke

@Jason : Here. Take the pack.

A whole, pack? I'd have settled for a glass.

=I take the pack=

Gee, thanks.

Well, there goes my diet.

(Dormii)
Ah sweet! Anything new done to it?

=i put my weapons down and start putting it on=

(Lana)
Hey, what's on your mind?

(I walk around)*Ah, there it is...*

(I holster all my weapons)

(I take a deep breath)

Lets see if anything has changed for the better

(I open the mess hall doors)

(I take a seat at the nearest open chair)

Well, looks like a typical scene that I can recall...

=I stand up=

I have a feeling.. you don't want to know.

@Jason : It would have been hard stealing one, So i stole the whole thing. I don't know if it was free...

other then the memory system's updates no

=puts on his crimson armor=

and i remembered more of my past

huh? well, It's weird... I'm used to killing and betting my life just for money, and now well, yeah... love. It's really strange turn for me... I need to rewind a bit.

=I pull out my grenades=

=I take out one of the cokes, and open it=

Ahh, these drinks are addicting.

=I take a sip, and savor the taste=

=I take the grenades=

No juggling on the first date.

(Dormii)
Yeah, what now?

=i put my armor all the way on, checking the programs and things=

(Lana)
=to Snow=
I can guess as well.

=i look at Scythe again, an eyebrow raised=
Grenades. Really?

well on the count that Snow just took my grenades... Now i can't juggle! It takes my mind off of things...

@Jason : Uggh. I have a huge headache. I don't even know why. Maybe i'm just stressed. Started with twelve people. now i'm down to three. I keep waking up in the medbay also.

Don't be rude, Pumpkin. Just talk to her.

=I laugh=

(Lana)
=jokingly=
And why would you want to keep your mind off of things?

I feel like I'm losing my usualy out put on things... being a jokester, being my usual gutsy self... Being a jerk when i feel like it.

(Lana)
Hey, it's okay. Just be yourself. I won't mind.

=He has another flashback=

Quote :

=They stand in the trench, staring at the Imp fortress. The order is given to charge. The all rush forwards at once and scramble for cover as they are hailed with plasma fire. There is yelling and artillary everywhere=

Mark- Wir müssen nach oben! Wir können nicht wieder zurück!

=A soldier gets hit=

Jean- Gabriel est en panne! Obtenir un médecin!

Vitali- Входящие призрак! Ложись!

Xazhi- Erasi John?

John- Over here! We're pinned down!

Jean- Je vais vous!

=Jean is instantly cut down by a hail of plasma bolts=

Mark- Wo sind sie alle her?

John- I dont see them!

Vitali- Бьянки!

Xazhi- Ima noti!

=A rocket flies up and strickes the banshee. It falls to the ground and scatters in the mud. They rush forwards again and up to the large ravine that seperated them from the fortress=

=The flashback fades. He continues walking untill he comes to the Messhall=

=I say as a matter of factly=

Yes you will!

well when syaa went missing i pretty much went on a rampage trying to find her which given the fact my eyes were glowing bright crimson red and the blood which stained my then armor earned me the nickname the crimson nightmare it was the only time i know of i lost control

=gets done with the armor=

it's a name i won't ever be rid of

@ Marcus- hey, what's your name?

but to do that i need my grenades... or...

=I activate my scythe=

whach this!

=I twirl my scythe and throw it in the air it almost hitting the ceiling, it comes back down and i catch it=

=I step back not to get hit=

Well.. you are not getting your grenades back.

=Sits and watches the new guy=

When did he get here? I've never seen him before. Well, i haven't seen half the people here but still.

(Dormii)
You'll only be rid of it, if you choose to let it go.

=i start heading out to the messhall, my helmet off=
Well, if you want to talk to me, comm me. I'm always here to help.

(Lana)
Not bad. Just try not to kill anyone with that okay? I don't want my first date to be marked with a death.
=i smile, jokingly=

@ Marcus- hey, what's your name?

(I talk) Marcus Murand, formerly MsSgt Murand of the 54th ODST.

(I cock an eyebrow) Could you tell me yours?

= I get confidence=

c'mon Snow pass me my grenades!

@ Marcus- My name's Jason, Jason Shepard.

=I extend my hand=

Spartan II, spec warfare, and let's leave it at that.

This headache is killing me, I'm going to see if the medbay has the medicine Jason told me to get

=Walks to the medbay=

@Doctor : Got any medicine for a headache?

(Doctor) : Yeah, Here you go.

=The doctor hands Justin a little thing of pills=

@Doctor : Thanks.

=Justin takes two and heads back to the Mess hall, observing the new guy=

(Lana)
Yeah, c'mon Snow. Let's see what happens. I promise not let him kill you, deal?

=Lori wakes up as well. She gets her stuff and heads to the messhall. Xazhi walks in before she gets there=

X- My mind is going...

=He looks for a certain type of food. The name he cant remember=

X- Fuck...

=I toss the grenades up in the air one at a time=

Don't hurt yourself.

=I begin to walk out=

Don't get killed on your first date, boy.

I only say leave it at that because I'm not entirely comfortable talking about what I did.

=I catch them=

boy? how old are you?

=I juggle both of them in my left hand =

I usualy have about 8 with me but Snow took the others and used them...

(I shake it)

(I take off my helmet and smile) Agreed. (To no one in particular) Now, could someone tell me what's going on?

(Lana)
Well, can you blame him? They are grenades after all. But what did he use them for?

@ Jason- well, let's see: Justin gave me a box of soda, Dormii got a call, and I think someone tripped.

=As I talk, I wave a hand around the room=

blowing stuff up...

= I grin=

=The Squad wake up in the medbay, all treated , They walk to their room and stay there=

*Meanwhile *

=Justin makes some tea=

I can't even go an hour without something to drink.

@ Marcus- Oh, and I saved Justin and his squad's asses after they crashed on a rebel planet.

=Walks over to Jason=

I bet we could have survived!

I doubt it...

(Lana)
=i grin back=
Here, let me try something.

=i grab a grenade in mid-air and set some music playing. i start bouncing the grenade on my foot and elbows and such=

(hackysack)

=I look at Justin like he's crazy=

You bet you could have survived? They were using mortors and artillerey, for christ's sake!!

@Jason : Who's the new guy? I also was gliding like a fuckin' ninja!

well no use juggling one grenade...

Not bad!

=heads to the messhall=

now this is a suprise so many people in one place

@ Marcus- I assume he means you?

=I motion at Justin=

(Lana)
=i start bouncing the grenade to the music=
C'mon! You try!

=i bounce the grenade over to him=
