Chapter 7 War, War never changes part 9

(Rain)

=Not noticing the change=

Right.

(Mali)
Talfie likes both you and Dormii. And Dormii likes both her and Jay. Both of them need to decide who they like more before anything happens.

='Revar and Uni stand on the bridge of the Sin of Wrath=

Zan- You must realize the severity of this... mistake.

Uni- I- if its any help... I st- still have the one i brouth with me....

=Uni pulls out the uprgraded shielding module, and holds it out with his shaking hands=

Zan- Take it down to engineering. Tell them we need more of them. Try not to fuck it up this time.

Uni- Y- Yes, sir!

=The grunt waddles off to Engineering=

(Rain)

And I say once more.
Right.

=I stare off=

(Mali)
You don't seem overjoyed or curious as to this turn of events.

(Rain)

=I shake my head=

Probably because.
When yall get this stuff sorted out.
Yall will get back together.

=I sigh=

There isnt a point to becoming overjoyed.

(Mali)
I won't be getting back together with her, Dormii will. But even then, they may not. Dormii's love is here on the ship, and Talfie is sad because you are sad.

(Rain)

=I finally notice the change when he says that=

Wait.
What?
You are Dormii...

=I shake my head=

(Mali)
No, I am Mali. Dormii's subconscious.

(Rain)

=I shake my head=

Dont want to know.

=I return to the previous statement=

I am not sad.
I am her friend.
I can be nothing more.

=Doubt creeping all throughout what I had said=

=I find some interesting stuff=

Hmm.. this could be useful.

=I look at my wrist watch=

(Mali)
I doubt that. You may be more than friends, as the conscious mind calls it. Yet it is up to her. She feels bad because you feel bad.

(Rain)

I told her.
I am..happy..for them.

I just wants what makes her happy.
If he makes her happy.
I cant get in the way of that.

=I stand and head off to the pool=

(Jason)
=I had been in the control room for a few hours, browsing through files, when the equivalent of alarms sounded. An image of Haven popped up, with a group of ships in orbit. The Trophaeum was there, in addition to a few other ships=

Okay, so they're here. And, it looks like they brought company.

=I sent a signal to the Trophaeum=

Hey, whoever's listening, follow this route. It will lead you to the entrance to this world. When you get there, I must ask that you relinquish control of your ship, so that the systems here can guide you safely to a landing zone.

(Mali)
=i sigh and get up. i head to Dormii's room=

(Jason)
Okay, Silver, transport me to the landing zone of the ship. You have control for now; when the ship reaches the entrance, take control of their systems. I mean, check first to see if they allowed it. If not, then take control anyway. Don't do anything drastic, simply guide the ship safely to the landing zone.

(Silver Light)
Very well. Sending you to the landing zone now.

(Jason)
=the instant he finished, I was transported across Haven=

(Mali)
=i put his armor on the stand and sit on the bed. i let him take over again=

(Dormii)
=i lay back on the bed and try to let my thoughts go=
She has to be...I know that face...

=has elyon seal off the part of the hangar the herac are in to prevent trouble=

(Dormii)
=i fall asleep on top of the bed=

=pilots the ship to the coords=

(Jason)
=I arrived at the landing pad, which was huge by the way. Considering the type of ship that was coming though, I guess it had to be big=

Okay, where do I go?

(Silver Light)
=I contacted him over his suits comm unit=

Might I suggest you get off the landing pad? It would after all, be most tragic if your friends destroyed you when they landed.

(Jason)
=I immediately started to head for a small tower that was off the landing pad=

Thank you, Silver. You know, you could have sent me somewhere not on the landing pad.

(Silver Light)
I could have. But this seemed a little funny.

(Jason)
Great, he has a sense of humor.

=the Duo feel the ship move=

"wonder what's going on."

(Dormii)
=i start dreaming again. I see Jay and Shelby, standing next to each other, but not. They look like two different people, but they look like one person. It's Jay, then Shelby, then Jay again, going back and forth, but not changing=
Who are you?! What do you want from me?!

(Jason)
=I got off the landing pad, and was now at the tower. To be honest, it wasn't really big. I mean, compared to the Forerunner structures, this was small. Granted, it was six stories tall, but still=

Okay Silver, I'm at the tower. Is there anything I need to do?

(Silver Light)
No. Simply wait there, and your friends will be there soon.

=starts arriving=


we're almost there

(Jason)
=I see on the tower's holo that the ship is approaching=

Okay, I see you on the sensors. Just stay on course, and I'll see you soon. Oh and, maybe wake some people up, because they are gonna want to see all this.

(Miranda)
=I had felt the Trophaeum move, then enter slip-space=

What the hell is happening?

=I went up to the Serenity's bridge=

Argo, what's happening?

(Argo)
It seems we have moved with the Trophaeum. One moment.

=I brought up sensors=

According to my scans, we are near the galactic core.

(Dormii)
=i keep dreaming, Jay and Shelby mixing, but staying different=
Who are you?! Why can't I see you clearly?!

=i jerk upright, in a cold sweat=
Just...just a dream...just... a dream...

=i lie down again, and think, trying to fall asleep again=

(Miranda)
Okay, this is new.

Argo, I'm going to get suited up. Want to join?

(Argo)
Sure. I'll join you when you're ready.

(Miranda)
=I left the bridge, and headed down to the cargo deck. I found the armor that Jason had got for me: a marine's armor. Wasn't really much, but it helped. I got the suit on, then grabbed my smg from the weapons room=

Okay Argo, I'm set. Care to join me?

(Argo)
Actually, I can't. I can't fit into the armor's computer's. Sorry Miranda, you're on your own.

(Miranda)
Great.

=comms dormi=


bridge now

(Dormii)
=i grab my helmet and reply=
Sleep now.

(Miranda)
=I exited the ship=

(Jason)
=I saw the ship hover over the landing pad. I should have known they couldn't really land the ship there=

Hey zeru, feel free to lower a grav lift.

@jason got it


@dormi guess you don't wanna say hi to jason


=activates the lift=

(Jason)
=I watched as the lift was lowered to the ground. I began to walk out of the tower=

(Miranda)
=I arrived in the grav lift room. It was already being lowered=

Well, I guess this means I get to be the first one down.

=the Duo are trying to find someone to talk about what happened to about a mile of ship=

(Dormii)
=i set it to an open comm=
Hi Jason, I'm asleep right now.

=i turn off my helmet and fall asleep again=

Dormii wrote:

Hi Jason, I'm asleep right now

(Jason)
=Okay, I felt a little insulted=

Hell of a way to treat a ghost man.

=arrives at the lift=


he's gonna be in trouble

(Miranda)
=I rode the lift down once it had finished being lowered. On the way down, I saw an unbelievable site: I was inside, a planet, and the horizon curved, up=

What the hell did I just do?

=I saw where I was being lowered: the base of a tower. Right outside the tower, was a figure, clad in some type of silver armor=

(Jason)
=I saw someone being lowered down the lift. I wondered who it was. When they got to the bottom, I was shocked: Miranda=

Oh, shit. This is not going to end well.

(Miranda)
=I got to the bottom, and walked off the platform, towards the silver figure=

Hello, my name is Mira--

(Jason)
=I cut her off=

Miranda Kate Moreau. It's been a long time.

=heads down the lift=

(Miranda)
=I raised my gun at the figure=

How do you know my name? Who are you?

(Jason)
=I depolarized my helmets visor, and showed her my face=

Hey Miri.

(Miranda)
=I was shocked. Stunned. Hell, whatever term you could think of involving your dead fiancee coming back from the dead, I was experiencing it=

Ja--Jason? Your alive?

(Jason)
=I tried to smile a little=

I guess it's not time for me to die yet.

(Miranda)
=One second, I was stunned, overjoyed at his return. However, the next, I was reminded that he had knocked me out, left me behind so he could commit suicide, and even left a message=

Jason, you son of a bitch!

=I took my smg and, while I had no intention of killeng him, I shot at Jason's feet=

(Jason)
SON OF A BITCH! Miri, stop shooting at me!

(Miranda)
=I stopped, but only because I ran out of ammo=

(Jason)
Okay, thanks.

=I turned to zeru=

Zeru, glad you came. What's this request?

[u] ok let me see ok unsc tried capturing obsidian wolf delta snapped and assumed they were gonna just kill everyone which fromm what i can tell is a lie so now he's gone a a genocidal campaign killing and enslaving every planet he can find so we have to get back now[u]

=heads into the lift=

(Jason)
Wait, genocide? He's going to commit, genocide?

(Miranda)
=When I heard the words genocide, my anger at Jason was, for the moment, gone=

yes he's killing entire worlds and enlaving those he doesn't kill


=heads the the bridge and falls aleep in the captains chair=

=He heads off to the messhall=

(Dormii)
=i wake up and decide to go get some food. I gt up, put on a change of clothes and go to the messhall=

=gets up and heads to the mess=

note to self add a blanket to the bridge

I finally sigh and take my helmet off, running my fingers through my short spikey hair.

Shame....I wonder if the captain would let me install a few modifications to the system....
