Chapter 4: Exodus

=the music and the Screams start to work less effectively, i start to fall asleep. i lose my balance and fall off, but i'm too tired to care. i fall further into sleep, my limbs bent behind me, my head pushed backwards. i adjust slightly and fall flat to the ground, asleep=

=She takes Draco's hand=
I'm not going with the Hellsing's.. I need some answers, I'm not going to find them hiding here...

=finds a comm and tries to get someones attention=

is anyone out there this is zeru i have no clue where i am or what's going on and my back feels like it's on fire so any info

would be awesome

(I take a glance back at the Mongoose)

I haven't tried this

(I give the 'Goose a gentle kick)

Lets hope this actually works

(I start the engine)

Please don't stall

(The 'Goose's engine roars)*Hell yes*

(I climb on the 'Goose and roar off)

(I hear a faint noise)

Sounds like music, very faint music

(I head to the sound)

=running down hall=
*huff, huff*
jeez, i got to move fast

guard4: There he is!

crap!
=scanning doors he passes=
let's see nope, nope, nope...Yes! prototype testing room!

=swings door open, slides in, locks it=

hmm... There you are!

=guard hitting door=
guard4: your in a mess, pal open up and you'll die quickly!

I'd rather not die at all, thank you!

=switches armor=

now to get out...


~If your stuck between a rock and a hard place, remember, there are like, seven other directions you can go to get out, seriously, don't be retarded.
- Tar's war buddy, Lapis - R.I.P

(He looks through her helmet to her eyes)
@Ash
Okay.
I understand.
If you want, I shall come with you.

There's no point of you coming with me, you have a chance to be safe and get away with the Hellsing's... Why don't you take it?

=She looks outside the dark clouds clearing=

(He sighs)
@Ash
I dont need to go with them.
Wherever you go I shall follow.
Unless you do not want me to go.

=She looks back at Draco=
Its not like that... I love you, I just don't want to get you hurt...

=She hugs him=
I always seem to get people hurt...

(He smiles at her)
@Ash
It takes a lot to hurt me.
I love you too.

(He kisses her)

No one is immune to being hurt....

=She begins to walk back to the base with Draco=
I feel like I don't no how to live... I just wanted to find someone...

=She shakes her head=
Never mind, it doesn't matter.. What do you want to do next?

a way out?... damn this placed is sealed.

ventured and kept, hours gone by,
nothing shows up, not to my eye,
given to little, given to much,
I talk to myself, a mental crutch.
- found carved in prototype testing room floor.

*bang, bang*

=guard4,2,5,6,7,and 8 hitting door=

i'm stuck.


~A cat can't catch a mouse without getting scratched.
- philosophy

=gets up and heads outside barely standing to see what is going on=

I open my eyes, not realizing i'd fallen asleep. I reach and over and feel my clothes again

Good. Your dry.

I stand up and get dressed, warmth spreading around my body a little.

Alright, seeing as how i dont want to be wet again. Let's see where that cave goes.

I leap across to another embankment and begin walking into the cave

(He follows her)
@Ash
Who are you looking for.
Whoever it is.
We can find them if you want.
We have transport.

=i wake up to Zeru's voice in my ear= Zeru, I have no idea what is going on. Oh, where's my armor? Did you get it?

=i sit up and look around= Crap, please tell me I didn't miss anything important...

I don't think it would be that easy to find them... I looked once, I didn't find anything

=She sighs, as she enters the base=
I don't know what I would do if I did find them...

=She looks down at her leg=
What should I do about Jay..? She didn't deserve to be treated like that, its not her fault...

@Ash
Listen she knows you did not mean it
It was the heat of the moment.
Hopefully she just comes around and comes back.

=rage builds up, then dissipates as Zeru tells me what happened= Okay, I'm coming to you. Where are you anyway?

=i get up and start walking back to base=
Sorry, Jay. But he needs my help.

What if she doesn't? What if she gets herself hurt..?

=She looks back at Draco=
I don't want her to think I'm angry at her... I don't want her to get hurt.

(They enter thier room)
@Ash
Once again.
I dont know what to say.
We could try and find her again.
She would most likely run off again though.

=i start heading towards that location= I'm on my way.

=She drops onto the floor her back against the wall=
Why do I always have to mess it up..?

=She starts taking the armour on her arms off=

(He leans on the wall near the door)
@Ash
You did not mess anything up.
Do not beat yourself up for that.

Sorry... I know you have a lot of things on your mind..

=She drops her armour on the floor=
Do you want to talk about it..?

I hit a wall inside the cave and grumble to myself

Damn having no light.

I continue onwards until the passage begins to slop upwards.

Alright, lets see where your taking me.

(He looks at her)
@Ash
Nah.
My meds are helping a bit.
Keep the stuff down.

Oh... Sure, I'm glad it helps

=She sits down on the bed=
What's it like...? You don't have to tell me if you don't want to... I know what its like...

=waits for domrii=

(He takes off his armor and sits next to her)
@Ash
Whats what like?
Twenty-seven years of pain.
Never ending.

(He takes out his meds)

The only relief I get is when I take these.

=i come across an area like the one Zeru decribed. i all out= Zeru! You here, buddy?

=She looks at the meds=
Where do you get them..?

=i walk over to him= Sorry. Need a hand? =i stick my hand out=

sure i appreciate it

=accepts the help=

=i look at him= So, need help getting to the Medbay? Or do you think you can manage?

(He shakes his head)
@Ash
Ive had these forever.
Just decided to start taking them.
To protect my friends and......you.
I got them at the Hospital in New Alexandria.

=She looks into Draco's eyes=
Thank you Draco... I'm sorry I've been such a pain..

=She kisses him=
I'm glad your always here to pick me up when I fall...

.......................................................-

guard?: got the override key?

guard?: yeah. lets open this up.

=looks down at spiker=
.................................................might as well

=door slides open...=

=TCHTCHTCHTCHTCHTCHTCHTCHTCH!=(Thats what a spiker sounds like in text)

=bodies hit floor=

..............................got em'. I've stirred up enough lives i need to go.



~Just imagine them as mosquitoes, they're mindless and pesky, just kill em' all!
- Lapis's semi-comforting words to Tar during battle.

(He kisses her)
@Ash
You have not been a pain
I love you and I will continue to help you when you fall.

I glance around me and then upwards.

Okay, vent shaft. Not where i expected to come out.

Medbay, either way. Cmon, I'll help you there. =i help walk him to the Medbay=

I just hope I can do the same for you Draco...

=She kisses him again and hugs him=
I'm so sorry... I've never wanted to cause you pain..

=I stumble out of the Jungle, exausted and hungry=
=I take a seat in front of a barracks=

(He shakes his head)
@Ash
You relieve my pain.
The knowing of you being here, relieves my pain.
You dont cause it.
You heal it.

(He kisses her)

So what do you want to do.
We can go with the others.
or go on and find the people you asked me to find.

=when he gets to medbay=

i just remembered somthing not much but it's something i remember a part of my childhood it shows me and syaa having fun as children not much but it explains a little of my past
