Chapter 4: Exodus part 2

(He shakes his head)
@Ash
Ice, so cold.
Everything destroyed.
Computers randomly turning on.

It wasn't in good shape when we jumped... Everyone was so confused...

=She sighs=
We were lost... Captain kept his cool like usual, he told everyone to get in cryo... He said that they would all be safe...


=She looks to Draco=
What about you..?

=She looks back up at the sky=
Tell me about you...

=I step away from Marcus and head to the mess hall=

Well deserved food.

alright I've had enough of this i'm sending a distress signal...

*This is Tar-Tun Stenzier of Earth defense, I'm currently stranded on the Azure Comet, requesting some form of assistance. Requesting any nearby craft to respond.*

god I hope this works...


~Everyone is equal... in death. War is just Karma's way of pruning the weeds.

- Tar-Tun's Squadron captain's Speech, short but, truthful.

=Voutan heads into the Solun Spirit after speaking with quill. He heads to the bridge where he gets a distress signal from a farmilliar voice, but the comm is cracked=

Comm- This i... St... Earth def...se, I'm ...rently st...randed on the ...zure ...met, req...sting some form of assi...tance...

Voutan- This is Voutan Reist. Your signal is weak. Send me your coordinates and ill come as soon as i can.

=Voutan starts up the ship and calls Immer to the bridge=

....!

A signal YES!

*Repeat im on the Azure comet, please respond again, who is this?

~ ..........
-Tar-Tun

=I hear a slight static in my helmet, I drop my fork and pick it up=

Hello?

=I wake up again= What the hell is going on with my sleep pattern?

=I get up and go to the sparring room, I start practicing on the dummy=

=The Solun Spirit fires up, kicking up dust as it does so. It lifts off and starts to head off towards the Azure Comet, based off of a signal trace from Immer=

=I gear up and head out toward the signal in a Warthog=

Well, let's see who we can kill today.

what no reply?

*Repeat, who responded please identify yourself*

damn...

David flails as the ship he's leaning on vibrates, starting up. He looks over to it, walking away briskly. He decides to go to the sparring room to get something productive done.

Voutan- This is SHI Squad aboard the Solun Spirit. We are on our way. ETA 5 minutes.

(He looks up at the sky)
(He shrugs)
@Ash
Not really much to tell.

(He looks at her)

* I need a rendezvous point please clarify pick up point*

~comms suck sometimes
- a lot of people

=I stop the Warthog and repeat the signal, putting in on the Warthog's sensors=

There you are.

Voutan- We will run a quick scan of the ship to determine a pickup point. Where are you currently in the ship?

=She smiles and turns to him=
Really..? There's nothing you want to tell me..? Nothing you want to share..?

(He smiles)
@Ash
What do you wanna know.

*i'm by the armory, I'm being trailed please make haste*

ugh... mother funker

=The Spirit comes over a hill, and the massive ship comes into view. He does a quick scan of it=

Voutan- It appears that the closest exit point to you would be the Secondary Hanger Bay. Get there, and i'll swing in and pick you up.

=I see David enter the sparring room. I wave= Hey! How's things?

shit

*got it i'll be there in about 5*

...

*how will i get on the ship?*

~ Paranoia deep destroyer!
-Destroyer by, The Kinks

I don't know..? Why don't you tell me..?

=She sits down on a nearby rock and looks up to the sky=
What's you home like..?

Keep talking..

=I arrive at the crashed ship and patrol the outer perimeter=

David nods, struggling to smirk, "Hey Dormii. Just walking around, trying to find out what I can do in this state. Yourself?" He looks around, noticing the many dummies.

@Ash
hmm. New Alexandria. So beautiful. That is how I remember it.

(He smiles)

Whenever I felt afraid or put down, I would just think of the beauty of N.A.
I said goodbye to it.
Neverbeen back since that day.

(He looks at her)

Been better.

=I look around= Hey, wanna spar? You know, if you are up for it. =I motion to his shoulder and face=

Voutan- Okay, We're here.Let us know when you get to the hanger and we'll pull in.

=The Spirit hovers next to the Comet's Secondary Hanger Bay awaiting the signal from the person inside=

David nods, "What the hell. I mean, you're in an even worse condition than I am. Sure."

(He shakes his head)
@Ash
I dont really know if it did.
I just bid my farewell to everything.

=I chuckle and say jokingly, as I walk to the sparring ring= Yea, well, at least I can get a date. =I smile, letting him know it was a joke=

Standard rules?

=I see a ship floating in the air, I decide to take a shot at it=

Just like shooting clay pigeons.

David chuckles, "True...Remind me, what are your standard rules?" He smirks, giving off the impression he had zero rules for spars.

*be there in...5-7 minuets*

...wait

=snatches Jet pack from armory=

There!

*I'm entering the hanger, be ready, also, are there any guards patrolling the area?*

@Ash
I do.
But the people.
Did not understand my problem.
Growing up never really had a friend
The kids kept thier distance.
One person though did not.

=She holds his hand=
Who was it..?

=I wait for him to enter the circle, then smile, part menacing part joking= I have one rule, no killing.

=I blur forwards and trip his legs from the side. I use my hand to shove him faster towards the ground=

(He looks at her)
@Ash
Lynn.
She was the one person. back then, who did not back away from me.

(He sighs)

David grins as he sees Dormii moving, letting Dormii take him to the ground, the grin still on his face. He wraps his legs around Dormii's back, rolling so that David is on top, while also squishing him with his weight via the roll. He sends a fist to Dormii's chest, for good measure, before standing up and moving back quickly.

=I grunt when the punch connects. I stand up and send a hammerfist at his gut, but I change it into headbutt before it connects=

(He shakes his head)
@Ash
No.
Seeing her again wont help.
She is still with ONI.

David holds his face in pain as he's rising, walking over to the wall to seemingly get something to balance on, groaning.

=I walk over= You ok? I didn't think I hit you that hard.

=A thought hits me=

@Ash
I dont want to leave her behind

(He looks away)

But what choice do I have

David gasps as if in pain, reaching out and grabbing Dormii's head, slamming it into the wall a moment later, "Felt kinda like that." He smirks, backing away.
