Chapter 6: Complications part 4

you've got one hell of a body, i'll tell you that.

(General Sapper) : This is General Sapper. What do you need?

=Comms back=

We will be docking for fuel. We need some engineers to come refuel it.

(General Sapper) : Sure. They will be waiting

=Comms his friend, Grey. An engineer on the "Niner"=

Grey. It's Justin. Get to the hanger. I'll need you and a few others. Bring a few blueprints.

(Grey) : Whats going on?

(Justin) : Don't worry. Just be prepared to get on my ship

(Lana)
=I laugh, making him bounce some more. I was about to respond when the guard showed up. I sigh=
Shall we?

Shall we what?

(Lana)
=I gesture to the guard=
We are requested to go see someone. Shall we go, or stay and enjoy the floor?

frankly, i prefer the floor and my pillow... who do we need to see?

(Lana)
And I prefer the floor and my blanket, but the man did say Officer's Meeting Room. It may be important.

but we're not officers, we're only to be treated as such...

(Lana)
Like I said, the man said we were requested.

=i shrug and wiggle a bit=
It's up to you, I'm comfortable right here with you.

Let's stay...

(Lana)
=i look at the guard=
Then I guess we are staying. Thank you for telling us though.

=i look back to Scythe=
Now, where were we?

I had just told you, you have one hell of a body... that's where we were.

(Lana)
=i smile=
Now I remember. And I was going to tell you, I hope so, the way you look at it...

(Ward) : E.T.A 2 Minutes.

(Justin) : Get ready.

=Loads his weapon=

=They land in the hanger and refuel=

(Grey) : Here are the blueprints. I brought a few engineers too. Are we leaving?

(Justin) : Yeah. We need your help.

=Grey and seven engineers get on board=

I'm pretty sure I don't look at it, as much as I stare at it.

=I chuckle=

(Lana)
=jokingly=
Aha! So you admit it!

=i point a finger at him=

I do admit it...

Do you look at my body?



~that last line felt weird writing...

(Lana)
=i chuckle=
How could I not?

=i put my hand down=

And you admit it too!

=I chuckle=

(Lana)
=i mock shock=
Oh no! My secret is out! What shall I ever do?

=i laugh and continue running my hand through his hair=


(Dormii)
=i continue wandering the halls, helping those I find. i can't help but feel like I'm going to meet Jay in one of these groups, that she somehow managed to get aboard the Trophaeum. i know it isn't true but the feeling stays there=

... So I'm your blanket?

=I try to hold in laughter after saying that=

(Sergeant) : General, Sir. They are leaving with those engineers.

(General Sapper) : Don't let them escape.

=Soldiers move in the hanger, Shooting at the Pelican as it leaves=

(General Sapper) : Shoot at them! Don't let them get away!

(Sergeant) : Uhh. Sir. Grey was on that Pelican. He had the blueprints.

(General Sapper) : Send Pelicans after that ship!

=Soldiers get in Pelicans as Justin and his crew leaves=

(Sergeant) : Sir. We have Pelicans going after them

(General Sapper) : Good. Kill them.

=We almost enter slipspace then get shot by a nearby Pelican=

@Ward : Don't get shot! Get away!

(Ward) : I'm trying! I can't enter slipspace until we get far enough. If we go now those pelicans will follow us!

=Ward does some manuvers trying to get away=

@Ward : Use Slipspace thing now!

(Ward) : I'll try!

=They enter slipspace. Leaving the Pelicans behind=

(Sergeant) : Sir. They got away

(General Sapper) : Can you track them?

(Sergeant) : No sir. But i'll try.

(Lana)
Why, do you not want to be? You could always be my pillow, you know...

=I give her a "what do you think look"=

I prefer you my pillow to anything else... I will always be your blanket

=Comms Dormii=

We got eight engineers. We barely made it. We will be there in about twenty minutes. We got a few blueprints. Our Pelican is damaged pretty bad. Get some engineers to fix it. There isn't alot left on this ship. Save what we have.

(Lana)
=i chuckle=
That's good, otherwise I might get cold in the night. Wouldn't want that now would we?

(Dormii)
=i receive the comm=
Okay, I'll meet you in the hanger.

=i quickly run to the hanger to meet them=

=We land in the hanger, Pelican on fire.=

@Dormii : We made it. This is Grey. We trained together when we first joined the marines. Best engineer on that ship.

No we do not want you to get cold, And we don't want me to get a stiff neck without my Pillow!

(Dormii)
=i extend my hand to Grey=
Nice to meet you. Name's Dormii Fortuni, if he didn't already tell you.

=i fidget with my helmet, attached to my hip=

(Lana)
Oh, can't let that happen now can we?

i need my Pillow!

=I begin to laugh=

=Grey Shakes Dormii's hand=

They call me Grey. Anyways. Justin tells me about this base you need?

(Lana)
=i laugh as well=
I need my blanket!

=i put my arms around him, as best I can=

(Dormii)
=i nod=
Yup. Once we get to wherever it is we are going, we'll need a base built, assuming there isn't one we can use.

(Grey)
@Dormii : Yeah. I assume so. Anyways. We will be in here. Working.

you having trouble puuting your arms around me?

=I grin=

(Dormii)
=i nod again=
Okay, if you need anything, comm me. I'm here to help.

=i give him a friendly smile and turn to walk off=

(Lana)
Well, you know, there is a purple haired person in the way. As well as a floor.

=I laugh=

really? Is that purple haired person cute?

(Grey) Okay Justin. Were taking apart this Pelican and making it into a vulture.

=Points to the blue prints.

@Grey : Do whatever. How many people does it hold?

(Grey) : Alot.

=Grey and his engineers start working on the Blueprint labeled "VULTURE"

(Lana)
=i smile back=
Maaaaybe. Why? You getting ideas?

Maybe...

=I re-fluff my "pillow"=

Sorry, I keep sinking...

(Lana)
Well, come up here and maybe you won't sink as much...

=I place one of my arms on the groung to help me turn over, My arm slips on the Candy wrapper from earlier, And I end up face down in the "pillow"=

=I tilt my head up=

oops.

=I smile at her=

(He steps out of the Pelican)
(He nods at the crew and heads off to his room)
(After some time he arrives)
(He takes off the armor and lays down, facing the ceiling)
(A vision of Ash appears next to him)

I will always have my mind on you

(Lana)
=i smile and shake my head, chuckling slightly=
Up, not down.

=i shake my head again, laughing=

"So....find a use of these A.Is?" I asked, looking at the technician working on it.
"It's basically a smaller, but smarter, version of a ship A.I. Can't control a ship.....but maybe we could field test?"

Actually... This is pretty cofortable... and I can see your face now.

(Lana)
=i pull him up to me=
But this is much better.

=i kiss him=

=Grey and his engineers use Pelican parts to form the "Vulture."=

=Grey Comms Justin=

@Justin : The Vulture is about 85% Done.

I can't tell which I prefer...

=I kiss her=

deffinetly this.

(Lana)
=i hook my arms behind his back=
Mmm, I can tell.

=i kiss him again=
I can definitely tell...

Maybe we should get the pillow and blanket back on the bed...
