Chapter 2: Judgement part 2

@Ash
I love you
(He releases her)
(He looks away)
(To himself)
Be strong, Be strong

=Ash pulls him closer=
I'm sorry Draco... I hope you can understand.

=She kisses him, and tries to sound cheery hiding her tears=
Do you want to help me with preparing?

=to Draco= She has made her choice. All we can do know is support her.

=to Ash= Would you still like me to give Draco the note? Or should I throw it away?

@Ash
Yes.

=She looks over at Dormii=
No I will, later..

=She heads to the hanger bay while holding Draco's hand=
I hope he will be O'k, I will miss him... I wish I didn't have to do this..

(before they go to the hanger bay)

=I hand Ash the note= Good luck, and remember, I'll make sure Draco finds you. Otherwise, life here would be boring.

=to both= If either of you need me, I'll be beating the crap out of a punching bag, because Jay hasn't woken up, and I need something to do.

=After sleeping without the opposition knowing, I see that the Colonel Draco has left=

Me: Hmm..

=I fiddle with my Medical Bag for a while=

=X No Giga comes out of slipspace aboard the Azure Comet over Deimos. He lands the ship and enter the military base through the hanger. He enters a medium sized room with a small window off to one side, and to the other was another room with a small staircase leading to an observation deck. In front of him is a hallway, which he goes down. He passes through another room where people are working with computors on all sides. He goes through and into the next room, which has a long window that reveals a courtyard in the center. He crosses a small bridge over the lower level where engineers are fighting against a flood of green-colored fuel. He proceeds into the next room, which is small and has gates on either side. He takes the eleveator on the opposite end and heads into the military base below=

=after beating the punching bag to near pulp, I check on Jay. No change, I'd worry, but I find worrying tends to make whatever bad thing you are worrying about, happen. So I head down to the cells. Taking my own advice, I let them out=

=to Juli and Snow= Do. Not. Try. To. Escape. To reinforce that, =i turn to Juli= you don't get your armor. =I turn to Snow= and you don't get your helmet. =i take both=

You have near free access to the ship. But I will be watching. One wrong move and your ears will be shattered, and your insides will have a large melted razor inside them. Don't make me regret this decision. I'll be in the rec room if you need me.

=The helmet was the best part..=

Me: Aww.. my helmet made me look cool. Now that you took it, I will probably take a lucky blow to the head!

=to Snow= Don't tempt me. Move, before I change my mind. Oh, before I forget.

=i mark each one on the forehead and on back of the hands= Don't think you can fool anyone into believing that you are part of the crew.

=Slipspace rupture detected=

"what? Sophia, what was that?"

"A slipspace rupture"

"I know that, what came through it?"

=sophia scans the area around the rupture=

"a covenant ship."

"oh.... has it noticed us?"

=slipspace rupture detected=

"yes, but it left."

"that....can't be good....."

"it probably isn't."

"oh gee, your such a confidence booster."

"hahaha"

=the doctor shakes his head and looks back at some data=

Me: Great now I look like an idiot.. wait a minute..

=I head to the heads=

It will not come off, and yes you do. The only way for you to remove it would be to dye your skin back to the normal color, or to remove the first five layers of skin. Your choice.

=i leave and go back to beating the punching bag in the rec room, memories surfacing=

=I try to fight them down, I think of Jay, I use my earlier techniques, I think of anything but my past, but nothing works. They surface, dragging me back down to my darkest part. I begin screaming and sobbing, unaware of my surroundings. My eyes have lost focus, thought, reason=

EMILY! LEE! CHRISTINA! WHY?! Why, why, why, why, why, why?

=i take my knife out and begin to stab, cut, tear, rend the punching bag, all in my attempt to escape my past=

I WILL KILL YOU! YOU KILLED THEM! YOU KILLED THEM ALL! DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE, DIE!

=i continue to beat and tear the bag for a long time, all sense of time twisting and turning=

=is in the rec room playing air hockey with syaa=

Me: I can't walk around looking like this

=I pull out my medical bag and grab some bandages=
=I wrap it around the eye sore on my head and tie a knot then head to the rec center=

Me: Who is winning?

Me: Yeah, I know, but I don't like the look of it. Sorry for trying to improve my personal appearance.

=Smiling=

=I walk past the punching bag to see that there in just a pile of fluff on the ground=

=I stroll around it, trying to be aware of the surroundings=

=i hear movement behind me, i spin around and hold my knife to the neck of the source. he seems familiar, i hold my knife from cutting his throat=

Me:=nervous= He.. Hey bud...

=Nearly swallowing my tongue=

=i hear him speak but his voice is unknown to me, yet familiar. i struggle to remember where he came from, where i am, what i am doing, what i was doing; all i can see is my team being slaughtered, and me unable to help. My eyes flicker with emotion, reason, logic, focus=

yells dormi snap out of it before i make u snap out of it

=I put my finger on the knife of the blade, push it down slowly=

Me: No need to kill an unarmed prisoner..

=I take one step slowly backwards=

=i see another person, familiar, yet strange. I know him, but I can't tell from where. I drop my knife, the sight of my teammates dying getting louder, clearer, more in focus. I try to fight it, but it keeps growing. My eyes tear up, but the emotion is not there, no thought, no reason. I scream, clawing at my eyes to make the visions stop=

=Startled by his actions I sit down=

Me: =Jokingly with a nervous smile= Anyone want to play cards

=I hold up the deck of playing cards=

=sees dormi going carzy again so he walks over and slams him face first into a soft matt i said snap out of it

=as i'm slammed, i see the Elite that killed Emily break her arms and legs. I cry harder, trying to break out of the flashback= No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

=I get up and struggle to keep him down to help Zeru=

Me: I hope this doesn't happen often.

=i start to win, I start to surface, gasping for clarity= Never again, never again, never again, never again....

=i rush out of the past and into the present. I see Zeru and Snow trying to keep me down= I'm back, I'm back. I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I thought all that was gone, locked away in a corner somewhere. I thought I learned to stop it, to fight it. I'm sorry.

=Exausted=

Me: Man, your tougher than you look.

=Smile and about to leave the room=

Me: Oh wait, can I sleep now..?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I though it had it under control. Just.....don't give me a weapon unless we are under attack. At least then I know I won't hurt any of you. Take my knife, my shotgun, everything. Just leave me with my armor.

=X No Giga has a meeting in the War room of the Deimos military base. They talk of how Operation Notanemil must go on as planed despite the loss of 2/5 of the Commanding XNNOs. They vote to continue the operation, and place Giga as the successor of Delta in his absence. Giga leaves the base with the Comet, and Heads back to the Obsidian Wolf=

Me: Well, I will help. I may be a Combat Medic, but I still save lives. That is if Dormii give me permission...

=I look at Dormii awaiting his approval=

=looks at snow= trust me this isn't something u can surgically heal

=breathless= I need...I need this gone. But I don't know if I can survive with less skills. Training will bring them back, yes, but if we are attacked, I....I don't know. Give me some time to think ok? Lock me in my quarters, a cell, something, so I don't hurt anyone. I...I just need time to think is all.

=to Snow= If I allow this, whatever it is, I better stay alive. I'm not letting Em......Jay down again.


Just....let me think for a while, ok?

Me: =Laughing= You want to be put in the cell with Juli, I can have that arranged.
Sorry, this is a serious matter take all the time you need.

This whole thing with Jay and her almost dead, it.....I'm tense. I don't want to lose anymore people, anymore friends. I....I don't want to lose another love in my life. I don't want to lose another family.

(To Dormii) I know how you feel, about nearly losing one of your own. I've never talked about what happened to me, what happened at Jericho VII.

(Sadly)I've never been able to cleanse myself of that guilt...the shame...and the trauma... of leaving my own comrades to die.

Never again, never again will I hesitate. Never again

=I look over and see Marcus= Oh, hey. Hope you're having a better time than I am.

=to Zeru and Snow= I don't trust myself right now, put me in a cell. I need to think about what to do. Just let me keep my armor, it's about the only thing in my life that has always been there.

(I may not be on when you respond, just say that you took me to the cells)

(To Dormii) I know about living in the armor.

(To Zeru and Snow) C'mon. Lets get him there, he needs the space more than the three of us.

(btw u guys have never seen my face at all have u)

(nope, not yet)

=Ash sets her equipment up so she's ready to leave=
I think I'm ready... I still don't want to leave but I have to

=She looks over at Draco=
I think I'm ready to leave now...
