Chapter 3-A: Calm before the Storm Part 2

Sorry Its a bad time to bring that sort of thing up..

=She lets go of Draco=
I need to get some sleep.. I didn't get any..

=She kisses him on the cheek=
I will see you later...

=She smiles and walks away=

But think, I killed an entire ship of Marines, I watched my team die while I just burned Plasma Rifles, I MAY HAVE BURNED AN ENTIRE PLANET! Nothing but evil causes that. I blamed it on my training, but what if it was a choice? What if I chose to let my team die, and to kill that ship's crew?

And then I met you, and Torres, and Ash, and Draco, and Jay. My life was better. I wasn't trying to kill anyone, I wasn't looking for war, I was simply living.

(He looks as she walks away)
(He shakes his head)
(He smiles and goes off to his room)

but will I stop him? or will I let him do it? I don't know...

=I walk into the bridge=

Anyone in here that would kill me?

Then apologize. Send a message to the UNSC for Spartan Grace. She'll get it.

Guess not

=I sit in a command chair, comfy. I put my legs up on the table=

=sends an huge apology for grace to the unsc using a method to prevent it being able to be traced back to the trophaeum=

syaa:get out of that chair and feet down please

=i get up, slide off the Longsword, and go to the crane controls, putting the Dream back to normal, launch-wise= Either way, resolve this. I have enough problems without adding this whole thing to my life.

=i hop in= Go have fun with Syaa, run combat training, do something. Celebrate this life you live, at least yours is constant. I mean it, go to Syaa, hold her in your arms and celebrate that you found someone. I'm not sure I can anymore.

=i launch, leaving Zeru behind and returning to the frigate. I land, relatively easily in the hanger, and try to walk the ship=

WHOA! Shit.. you scared me...

=I put my feet down and look at her=

Sooo.. how is that bullet wound...

=I nervously smirk under my helmet=

syaa: my shields took the blow

Hmm... this.. is.. awkward.

=I turn back around, looking out into space=

syaa: relax i'm not used to to dealing with other people but i'm learning little by little to open up

Oh really?

=I turn back around=

Open up, how?

syaa: socially if u spent almost no time around others u become withdrawn

Aaannd.. your point would be?

=I cross my fingers together=

syya: nvm figures u don't understand

=I stand to my feet=

What do you mean.. I don't understand...?

=I take a step closer=

Hmm.. useless..

=I walk past Syaa out of the bridge. I walk to the recreation room=

Hello...

(As he walks into the room, the scent of Ash fills him)
(He grabs his Hydra and Handcannon)
(He hides the Angel Maker)
(He leaves to do some exploring)

David would be warming up on the punching bag, hitting it low with several quick jabs, following up with a high elbow strike, altering the process a few times.

I guess I wouldn't want to be at the business end of that...

=I walk more into the rec room and sit down=

David stops, noticing Snow and waving a little, "Hey. How're you feeling?" He smirked, walking over to sit next to him. "Would you like a go at the bag?"

Heh.. in my condition, no..

=I pick up a deck of cards in the middle of the table=

Would you like to play?

David paused, looking at the deck, "Um, I'm not too good with cards, but sure. I'll give it a go."

What do you want to play?

=I shuffle the cards and flopping them on the table=

I will play anything.

(He passes by the rec room and decides to go in)
(He sees David and Snow playing cards)
@David
Hey........David was it?

David looks up to the Draco, nodding, "Mmhm. Why do you ask?" He looks back to the deck, confusedly.

(He takes a seat)
@David
Just sayin Hi
Anyway. Tell me about yourself.

David looks around, and tell Draco, kind of quietly so, "Well, for one, I'm an operator for ONI. Not a spook, More or less a mercenary."

@David
Right.

(He brings out his Hydra and begins to polish it)

David whistles a little, impressed. "Nice. I prefer to be subtle, however." David draws his handgun, it is a pattern of tan and black and appears to have an integrated suppressor. "I can field strip it in a matter of seconds, too."

(He looks at the pistol)
@David
nice

David nods, chuckling a bit, "Mmmhm. So, where's Dormii?"

@David
Tell you the truth man
I have no clue

=i walk the ship, the question not really answered, but more of settled. my bad leg still gives me problems as i walk, but i manage to lean on the walls for support=

David pondered for a moment, trying to think where Dormii -a man who looked like he needed to be alone- would go. He suddenly got an idea, "Hey, that frigate next to us, is that ours too? If so, he may be there." He paused to look at his handgun one last time, "If not, we should go explore it anyways. You down for it?"

(he shrugs)
@David
Why not

David grinned, grabbing his pistol and cocking it, "Do you have a Sabre or any way of transport? I'm not qualified to fly."

(He looks at David)
@David
No, but Im sure we can find one

David nods, looking at a directory of the super-carrier on the wall, pointing to the hangar. "I bet there's one there, let's go." David stood, nodding to Snow as he started a light jog to the hangar.

(He holsters the Hydra and runs after David)

(They soon find the hanger and began to look around)

David points out a seemingly functional Sabre, running over to it. "This looks like it'll work. You CAN drive this, right?" He chuckles.

@David
Well Project Juggernaut taught me just about everything about weapons and vehicles

(He hops into the pilots seat)
(He presses some buttons)
(The Sabre Roars to life)

Hop in

David hops in, fastening his seat-belt before giving a thumbs-up to Draco, "All good back here." After the ride over to the frigate, David hopped out with Draco as they both made their way around the frigate aimlessly, David's pistol drawn. They notice Dormii and wave, "Hey, Dormii." David holsters his handgun, walking over to him.

Hey, welcome to whatever-this-is-called. We don't have a name for it yet, and we can't find anything on the records. So, it's the whatever-it-is.

=i spread my arms open at the empty hallway= Welcome aboard.

David stroked his chin, trying to think of a name. "I have one, but I'm trying to save it for something special. Anyway, what're you doing?"
