James-Hey! Stop ignoring us!

=I begin to get angry=

Rain-Get your hand off of me.

(Dormii)

(Draco and Lynn)

=She places a hand on his shoulder=

Lynn-Ive known ya forever. I understand.

Draco-I know you do...Why cant they?

Lynn(hugs him)-I dunno.

(Rain)

=I swing the blade as I turn=

Rain-I told you. I dont wanna talk.

Sharon(raises her hands)-Rain, Rain, Rain. Calm down.

Rain(staring at James)-Go. Please.

=They walk off=

(Dormii)
Let's enjoy the walk first, okay? It's a nice ship, even if empty a lot.

=i hold his hand=

(Rain)

=Edward gets up and walks up to me=

Edward-Dude, man. What the hell.

=I swing my blade at him=

Rain-Back. Away.

=Edward dodges the blade=

Edward-Like hell I am.

(Draco and Lynn)

=They sat there hugging each other until the bell rang=
=They stood and walked off to class=
=The other kids murmuring=

=He looks around the memory realm=
=She looks around. Remembering many things=

(Dormii)
=i squeeze her hand in mine. We continue walking=

(Rain)

=I shake my head=

Youre not worth it.

=I turn around and resume the training=
=Edward looks at me=

Edward-You threaten me. Then you back off.

Rain-Youre not worth it.

(Draco and Lynn)

=They see each other within the dream=
=Each thinking it is just the dream=

Both-What...

(Dormii)
So...what else is there we can do?

(Rain)

Edward-Fuck you too

=I stay there=
=He walks off=

(Draco and Lynn)

=They walk up to each other=
=The changes over time showing=

Lynn-Dr..Draco...

Draco-Lynn...

=The memory stops. Returning them both to the real world=

not sure...

(Dormii)
Well, we can keep walking like this. We could...go sit in the hanger and enjoy the view...we could...I dunno. We could go talkto Rain, wherever he is.

could you carry me back to my room... I'm really tired...

(Dormii)
=i smile=
I don't know...let's find out.

=i put my arm around her waist and pick her up, holding her under my arm=
That work?

*nyaa....

(night)

(Dormii)
=i carry her to her room and gently lay her down on her bed. I give her a quick kiss on the cheek and then leave, turning off the lights and closing the door behind me. i head to the hanger bay so i can start the training again=

(Rain)

=I head off to the hanger=

Better training there.
At least there I can set up scenarios

=I sigh=

(Dormii)
=i get to the hanger and start up a pelican=

(Rain)

=I enter the hanger=
=Seeing a Pelican started=

Hmm...

=I shake my head and head to another one=

(Dormii)
=i take off and head towards the Repent. I use auto-pilot for most of the way=

(Rain)

=I lift off and follow the first Pelican=

=I think of things=

(Draco)

=As he is pulled from the memory he looks around=

That...wasnt apart of the memory...

(Lynn)

That couldnt have been...

(Dormii)
=i put my helmet back on and land on the Repent. i walk out and head to the training room, sending a ship-wide comm to the recruits for training=

(Rain)

=I head off to Transcending Soul instead=

He'll be there..
Dont really want to speak...
or see him..

=I sigh=
=Landing in the hanger=
=I head off to the training room=

(Dormii)
=i wait in an empty training room for the recruits. They all arrive and stand at attention. The bruises from a few days ago were still there, but everything else looked okay=

Today's lesson is going to be about teamwork. You can't rely on yourself, but can you rely on your team? You are going to find out. Each of you will be given a weapon that needs to be used at some point during the test. If one of you fails, you all fail and will have to start from the beginning with a randomized course. I will be watching at all times. And just so you know, every obstacle can be beaten.

(Dante)

=He stands and puts on his armor=
=He heads off to the hanger to go to Repent=

She was too real to be apart of the memory

(Lynn and Grace)

=Lynn and collapsed=
=Grace next to her trying to wake her up=

Lynn-No way...

=They Find themselves in the Mess Hall=

(Dormii)
=i gesture to the locker rooms=
There are helmets there for each of you. They will let you see the course. You stray from the course, you fail and have to start over again. Move!

=the recruits head out to the locker rooms. i head up to the observation room=

=Delta had continued on as he was doing for some time. Eventually, all his prisoners were dead. The other humans from the other camps had either been killed or sold as slaves to the Obsidian Wolf, or other places. Delta was now back aboard the Azure Comet, making preparations for their next attack=



=Xazhi, Lori, and the Kid has been wandering the town for some time. They had eventually comes to what appeared to be a Grav Lift. They take it, although the Heracs seem agitated by the weightless feeling. They arrive in a Hanger bay. Xazhi looks around=

Xaz- Wait... This is the Trophaeum's Hanger.... WE WERE ON OLYMPUS!!?!?

=gets a report and heads to the hangar bay=

=He lands in the hanger and heads off to the training rooms observation deck=

(Lynn and Grace)

=She finally comes to=
=She sits up=

Grace-Finally. Youve been out for awhile

=She looks at Grace. Still partially dazed=
=She stays silent, thinking=

I get up slowly, placing my hand on my helmet and removing it.

Never do that one again...

(Lynn and Grace)

=Lynn sits there a moment=
=Regaining all current knowledge=

Lynn-Hey

Grace-So she speaks

Lynn-Sorry...got loist in thought

Grcae-A normal person wouldnt have collapsed...

Lynn(laughs)-Im not normal

=Xazhi tries to send a Comm, but there is no reply=

=Xazhi looks down and sees Zeru. He gets off the herac=

Xaz- Zeru, thank god you're here. Listen, Delta has gone completely fucking insane. The UNSC attacked the Obsidian Wolf and now he's leading an Armageddon fleet across the UNSC controled colonies. The first attack killed millions. We have to do something!

Xaz- Good, at least we know they will be willing to help. Gods know what Delta is going to do next...

=Lori gets off the other Herac, and helps the kid down. They walk over to Xazhi and see Zeru=

Lor- Hey Zeru. Long time no see.

Xaz- My suggestion: Blow that fucker out of the sky before the death toll of innocent lives gets any higher.

Kid- But i thought the Comet and the Trophaeum could never kill eachother?

Kid- But werent the ships built to be un-killable?

Xaz- Alright. We crash-landed a few day's walk out, so we're a little roughed up. I need some sleep, personally.

=Xazhi, Lori, and the kid go into the ship and off to their old rooms. The kid goes with Lori. They fall asleep quickly=

(Dormii)
=i watch as the recruits move into the training area. The virtual arena appears. Each one of them has a different weapon. One has two magnums, one has a grenade launcher, one has throwing knives, one has a sniper rifle, one has a shotgun, one has a rocker launcher, One has digital representations of plasma grenades, and one has an all metal spear with rubber handles. i grab the intercomm=
There will be variables during this test. Keep an eye out for them.

=i hit the buzzer and relax, watching. The first obstacle is two alarm boxes on either side of a wall. They need to be disable at the same time for the recruits to be able to pass. they talk amongst themselves, trying to figure out what to do=
C'mon people, wasting time here. Think. What do you need to do?

'We need to open the gate.'

'There are two alarm boxes. We take out one, the other goes off.'

'Why not take out two at one time?'

'Two people can't do it. Only one at a time.'

'Okay then, I'll be right back.'

=one of the recruits. The one with the pistols, walks over to the gate and takes aim. He fires and misses both boxes. e adjusts his aim and fires again. He manages to hit and disable both. The gate opens and they continue through. He brings his pistols to his hips to simulate a reload=

(Dante)

=Watching the training of Dormii's recruits=

Hmm...

=His mind wandering. Stopping on the "memory"=

Before that...I could hear her...

=walks close to the herac but far enough he can avoid any attack=
