Chapter 7 War, War never changes part 6

(Miranda)

Yeah, but I'd have thought that you would have the courtesy to tell me that I was sleeping next to nukes. I mean hell, that's something a girl likes to to know.

(Jason)

Well yeah, but they're harmless without the codes. Until the codes are used, those nukes were nothing more than paperweights.

I'm pissed off at her and vise versa...

= i push my chest against him=

kinda cozy under here, huh? *giggle*

(Miranda)

=I raised my hands in submission. Granted, I knew that he was right about the nukes. I guess I was just pissed he never told me=

(Dormii)
=i smile and whisper=
It is kinda cozy. Why are you angry at each other?

(Sarah)

=She puts her head down on the table, thinking of her home=

Should I care...

=She sighs=

I should check up on them at least....see if Aaron has done any good....

i don't want to talk about it...

=i put my arms around him=

(Sarah)

=She sighs looking up=
=She stands and heads off to the hanger=

I need to see if things are okay.

=She thinks=

Let me see if I remember the co-ords...
Hmm....

(Dormii)
=i raise an eyebrow=
Why, too personal?

=a hand creeps up to behind her back=

=i push close against him=

too personal...

(Dormii)
=i smile=
I hope at some point you let me help fix it. I hate to see two people hate each other for just about no reason.

=my other hand starts to work it's way up her back=

(Dante)

=He sighs=
=Finishing off the last mine=
=He looks around. Seeing Sarah enter=
=He walks up to her. They hug=

Dante-Hey.

Sarah-Hey. Listen...I need to check up on things in Freemont...

=He looks at her, confused=

Sarah-I need to see if its all up and running. Knowing my brother its not.

=She shakes her head=

Sarah-Sorry...Ill......keep you posted....

=He sighs=

Dante-I understand. Do you remember the coordinates to it.

Sarah(nods)-I do.

=They hug again and she heads off into a Pelican=

Dante-Go to Heaven's Descent. Pick up a Phantom. Pin point slipspace exit.

=She nods waving goodbye. She takes off in a Pelican. making sure to not hit a mine. She goes to HD. Once there she takes a Phantom and heads off=

=He heads off to the messhall=

=He enters the messhall. Hearing Talfie=

Tch

=He shakes his head. Following the sounds=

(Dormii)
=i can't help but chuckle a bit and put my arms around her, holding her close=
I like to go slow, to make it last as long as possible. Can ya blame me?

=He arrives at the table. Talfie and Dormii underneath=
=He bangs on the table=

=i smile=

=He shakes his head=

She is gone.
She went back to Freemont.

=He crouches down to see the two=

I want an apology, Talfie.
For what you almost did.
What she clearly did not want.

=comms the others=

=i get out from under the table=

=He crosses his arms=

You wish for an apology.

FireTeam - New team

=The Anti-Air turret shoots, Hitting the Pelican=

Nolan - Keep it steady! Don't make the crash rough!

Christopher - I'll try! We are going down slow. Too many trees! We might hit one!

=The Pelican steadies a bit. They almost hit a few trees=

Nolan - Everyone! Hold on to something!

Joseph - Try not to get us killed!

=The Pelican hits the ground=

Nolan - Is anyone hurt?

Joseph - We are alright.

Allen - Yeah, My leg hurts, but i'm fine.

Christopher - I'm alright.

=They try to pry the door open=

Nolan - It won't budge. Use the Emergency Open.

Joseph - Yes sir.

=The door opens a little, Enough for them to gather their stuff and get out=

Joseph - Where do we go?

Nolan - I say that way.

(Whiskey Platoon)

=They get in low orbit at the rebel planet=

(FIRETEAM)

=The Fireteam sees a few Pelicans and a Vulture fly above them=

(Whiskey Platoon)

Soldier - We have movement under us Sir.

Lance - Ignore it. Focus on the hill.

Soldier - Yes sir.

= i look him in the eye=

(Jason)

=I decided to head on to the mess on the Trophaeum. Miri stayed onboard though=

(Dormii)
=i get up from under the table. I sit back at my original spot=
It was.

=i chuckle and take a bite of my food from earlier, watching=

(Jason)

=I walked into the mess. I grabbed a tray for some food and drink, and sat down at a table=

=He stares at her through the visor=

I do apologize for that.
It was wrong of me to try to respect your wishes.
When in her heart it said she had greater feelings for me.
I apologize.

=He hears a beeping=
=He answers it=

Dante-Yes.

Sarah-Dante...we have a problem...

=Her voice scared and frantic=

Dante-Sarah. Calm down. Tell me.

you are just a jerk.

(Dormii)
=i start to stand up. Warningly=
Talfie...

=i look back at Dor=

he deserved that! trying to make me feel worse than i already do!

(Dormii)
That may be so, but remember what I said. Ignore those that try to hurt you, look for the ones that won't.

=i sit bck down=
Come on, sit down, eat some food. Cool off.

=His head did not move=
=The slap doing nothing to his face=
=He taps the helmet=

A helmet. Your slap will cause nothing.
Now. Do you not have someone else to push your chest against.

=He goes off and leans against a wall=

Dante-Talk to me Sarah.

=The three men explain they are advisors to the late leader. A secret service if you will. They tell her of the attack and how they had tried to defend him. In his dying breath he wanted Her to become the new leader of Freemont. She tried to explain to them she does not understand much about politics. They said they would help her with both politics and finding the man responsible for assassinating her brother=

Sarah-Dante....

=Despair in her voice=

Sarah-Dante.....I dont know how to say this........we cant....see each other anymore.

Dante(shock)-What

Sarah-With my brother dead...he wanted me to assume the position of leader....I....cant shirk my duties....

Dante-The men who killed Aaron will come back and try to kill you...

Sarah-Im going to work on a defense...I need to do this....please....

Dante(shakes his head)-Gods........why...

=i turn back at Dante=

please...

=i tear up=

stop hurting me...

=i point my umbrella at him=

i'm sick of you being so mean! i don't understand how sarah could falll for someone so heartless!

=i walk towards dormii trying to suck back the tears=

=He shakes his head=

Learn what I have been through Talfie.
Witnessing my parents and my sisters murder.
Countless murders by these hands.
Witnessing my love continuously hurt.
Seeing her laying dead in the cold of space.
Never really getting a chance to say farewell to the person that cleared my mind of everything.

=He shakes his head again=

You will not understand my heartlessness.
I have no heart.

=He walks off=
=Comms=

Dante-I am coming to Freemont

Sarah-No. I wont allow that.

Dante-What do you mean.

Sarah-They believe it was UNSC. They dont know you. The people are on high alert. If you step foot here. Youre dead. I cant allow that...

Dante-Sarah. Please.

Sarah-Dante. I need to do this. I need to. Im sorry. =She cuts the comm=

(Dormii)
=i put my arm around her in a hug when she gets close enough=
It's okay. Just sit down, eat a bit, cool off. You're okay.

(Jason)

=I ate for a bit, and when I finished, I just sat there, deep in thought=

=After a long study, the Engineers realize that the previous plan would be impossible. Delta speaks with Exion again=

Code:

Sir, i have decided upon a much more logical course of action.

Del- Yes?

Code:

We can simply use our normal engines to leave the field, then jump when we are in a safe position.

Del- Wonderful. How long will that take?

Code:

Not long. Shall i initiate the engines?

Del- Go for it.

=The engines fire up, and the Comet begins to move away from Olympus=
