Chapter 7 War, War never changes part 6

(Rain)

=I continue meditating listening to the two=

=He chuckles.=

They ain't going to find it. Okay, new deal.

=He looks around.=

All past crimes are... Forgotten, and I get to stay out of my cell. If I commit another crime, then you can throw me back in my cell.

(Dormii)
=i walk over to the pool=
You aren't a play thing, you are a person. A very beautiful person, but a person nonetheless.

=i dive into the pool and start doing laps=

meh, time for human food. Great.

= begins his walk to the mess hall=

(Artyom)

Wait... What? Are you accepting the deal or not?

=gets some food and sits down.=

*sigh* i wonder what master senox is doing. probably still fighting in the arena.

c'mon, i'm always flirting with you two, i am a plaything.

=i take my skirt and shirt off, my detached sleeves still on. i slip into the pool=

(Dormii)
So? That's just how you are. That doesn't make you a plaything.

(Artyom)

Well... The Pelican is on that Covenant ship... Dante's... I think.

(Rain)

You arent...

=I shake my head, opening my eyes to her=

You are not a plaything...

=i heat the water up=

...

(Dormii)
=i lean back when the water heats up=
Ahh...

(Rain)

=I slip into the pool. Feeling the water=

You have a way of making things warm....
its just perfect...

=I sit back=

=finishes his food and begins to wander aimlessly=

what to do. what to do. should I return to master senox? nah all he does is make me search contestants. train? no, not prepared enough. who else is on this ship? hmmm. and what do they do in their spare time?

(Artyom)

I have a giant hole in my leg! How the hell do you expect me to get there in twelve minutes?!

thanks... sometimes things can be hard for me (that's what she said) it ain't always easy being me...

=i lean against the pool edge=

*sigh* it's nice knowing you two...

(Dormii)
=i smile=
It's nice knowing you as well.

=i float on the surface=

(Rain)

Its a pleasure knowing you.

=I swim over to her=
=Leaning against the edge next to her=

*sigh*

=i relax, my chest puffed out=

...

(brb, dishes)

=The Comet finally gets out of the Magnetic field, and jumps into slipspace towards the Obsidian Wolf. Meanwhile, in the ship's armory, Xazhi meets up with Mark to try to make an 808th armor variant small enough for the kid=

Mark- It shoudnt be too difficult to make... But my main concern would be weather or not the kid can handle it.

Xaz- Well, he does already wear armor. So it shouldnt be too big of a jump, right?

Mark- Xazhi, he wears armor similar to that of an ODST. 808th armor is more similar to MJOLNIR. He would need to undergo intense physical training. Possibly even some sort of physical augmentations, like yours.

Xaz- No. I wont put him through Project LIFE. Think of some other alternative.

Mark- I guess the only other option would be obscene amounts of training. Thats all i can think of...

=Xazhi sighs=

Xaz- Alright. You work on something, and ill train him.

Mark- Alright.

=Xazhi leaves the room to go get the kid. They head up to the bridge=

(Rain)

=I try not to look=

Hmm...
Very....distracting...
Just like this morning...

=I smile=

=begins walking around in search of something to do=

looking is a compliment, *giggle*

(still away)

(Rain)

=I laugh and watch her=

Hmm...

(Dormii)
=i laugh=
Sorry, still not used to someone saying that.

*giggle* i'm so kinky aren't i?

(Dormii)
=i look at her, dunking my hair into the water=
Yup, and it's fun. Although, just being with you is fun.

(Artyom)

Fucking dick...

=He begins to hop away.=

(Rain)

=I smile=

Very.
But its alright.

*giggle*

=i heat the water more=

ahh...

(Dormii)
Ah...thank you Tal-

=my eyes lock looking up and my body goes still=

(Rain)

=I watch Dormii=

Dormii.
Man. You okay?

(Dormii)
=the phantoms start to show up=
No...gods no...not now...

=continues to try to find something to do=

*yells* What is there on this ship?!?!?!

=Xazhi and the kid head to the gym room, and begin to train intensely. Delta continues work from the bridge. He decides to head up-ship to the forward observation deck=

*giggle*

gues the water is too nice...

(Rain)

=I put my arm in front of Talfie=
=Watching Dormii=

What is going on

(Dormii)
=i barely manage to speak as the phantoms press closer=
Run...lock the door. Don't...turn back.

=i go over to dor and throw my arms around him=

are you okay!?

(Rain)

=I nod and get out of the pool=
=I motion for Talfie to follow=

Talfie. I think we need to go.

=After a while of hopping, he falls to the floor.=

Wait... There is no lock on the Pelican... Well... Whatever...

(Dormii)
Talfie...it's not safe...run, please. Can't...their coming...

=my eyes widen=

Young Nicholas has been in the pool for the past several hours.

=Still Swimming strong, After several brakes and some food of course=

= begins to walk to the hanger.=


i never really looked at the ships. well that gives me something to do.

(Rain)

=I yell out to her=

Talfie, We should leave.

=I can see his eyes widen=

Please. Cmon

=i kiss him on the cheek=

=i grab my clothes and run out the room=
