Chapter 4: Exodus part 2

.........who are you? i-i-i want to thank you for being here...
=the necklace around Tar's neck seems to dull in colour, no longer appearing bright and vivid, as it used to but, now as grey as his eyes=


~Ich sehen in diene kalten Augen, Und weiB das sie noch spricht.
~I look in your cold eyes, and know she still speaks.
- Die bestie, by Unheilig

I'm so sorry... My name is Ashlie... I wish there was more I could do for her...

=She briefly hugs him=
She's in a better place now...

... *sob* thank you...

=heads outside and talks to himself=

did i make the right choice choosing to save delta over immer

Its okay... I understand...

=She looks back down at Immer=
I've lost as well...

By the way I'm Tar-Tun, experimental armor tester... and i'm sorry for your loss as well

=She smiles and him=
Its okay... Is there somewhere we can take her..?

yeah... cremation, is there a lake nearby? to scatter her ashes? so she can be one with wind and water? We need to find Voutan first.

There's a beach... Not to far from here, its very quiet...

=She tries to lie her down respectfully,=
My we wish her mind at peace...

Thank you again... Do you think you could go get Voutan Reist?

=Voutan, now inside the Solun Spirit, training with his sword in the Rec Room=

This is the blade
the blade that broke so many hearts
and now will cut out the one who caused it.
Sayeth thine final words,
my dearest one,
and be forever with the goddess.

Evsi Revierohv Sai-ano Laus

=She stands up=
Of course... I'll find him.. Where should I tell him to meet you...?

right here, i don't want to move her.

Of course, I'll go get him... Keep strong...

=She runs of to find Voutan=
He must be in his ship...

=She begins to head for the Solun Spirit=

... Immer i'm sorry I couldn't of helped you...

~A girl saw a little rose, It bloomed there in bright heights, She asked her sweetheart, if he could fetch it for her,
She wants it and that's fine, So it was and so it will always be, She wants it and that's the custom, Whatever she wants she gets.
-Rosenrot , Rammstein

=She reached the Solun Spiri and headed on board=
Where could he be...?

=She wonders round the ship=
Vouton! Vouton! Are you here!

....Immer, i'll be there with you eventually, I'll live for all of us...You, Lapis, for anyone who's died.



~Deep wells must be dug,
if you want clear water,
Rose-red, oh, Rose-red,
deep waters don't run still

-Rosenrot (continued)

Dam... I thought he was here..

=She continues to search the ship=
Vouton!? Anyone..?

=Immer lies on the ground, nearly dead. She is concious, but paralized. She cannot move, she cannot speak. She can only watch as the people around her mourn her death. As Ash walks away, she sees only Tar-Tun remaining. She forces herself with all her remaining energy to tell him something=

Immer- Tar...get my brother...i just want to see him again...please...dont let me die like this...

...ask Zeru...why couldent he help me...?
=her vision fades to black, her hearing and all sense of feeling slowly vanish away. Her skin grows pale, and one single tear runs down her face as she dies in Tar-Tun's arms=


=Voutan hears calls=
Voutan- Ashlie! I'm up here, in the Rec Room!
=He deactivates his sword and heads down to the lower deck to meet her=
You were sent to retreive me?

=She looks at Vouton=
Something terrible has happened... You have to come with me right away...

=She sighs=
I'm so sorry...

............ I'll kill you Delta, if your dead, i'll kill your men, if there dead, well, that'll because i killed them.


~Ich tu' dir weh.
Tut mir nicht Leid!
Das tut dir gut.
Hör wie es schreit!
-Rammstien

=He looks into Ash's eyes=
Voutan- I Know... How is Tar-Tun doing?

=Her eyes widen in shock=
You know..? How..? You knew and you didn't do anything?!

=His tone becomes a little bit louder and angrier=
Voutan. I'm Sorry, i was a little bit busy stabbing the living fuck out of that Delta character. I'm Vengence, nice to meet you.

=She takes a step back=
I didn't mean to offend... This is about me anyway, its about Tar-Tun and Immer... Are you going to find him..?

Voutan- Take me to them.

=She nods=
This way he's waiting for you...

=They leave the ship and begin to return to Tar-Tun=

.........................hahahahahahhaahaaa! yeah, he'll die!

~I'm not insane, I'm mentally hilarious!
-Tar

=Voutan stands over Tar-Tun and Immer. He is deeply sorrowed inside, but appears cold and steinhearted on the outside. His Solun teachings have always told him to let go of that which you fear to lose. That attachment can only ever lead to pain. He composes his emotions quickly, and speaks with Tar=

Voutan- You must be deeply saddened by all this. I'm sorry you had to go through it.
=He extends his hand to help Tar up=

=the Dream ends, but it's different. I no longer smash the woman, now i speak= Dormii Mali, you are one evil bastard. That's why I like you. Thank you, me.

=i snap back to the present, but I forget what happened= Oh, thank gods. I'm not sure I could've handled another run through it.

=i get up, after my armor unlocks and my visor goes back to normal. i go back to the base and wander around=

=Ash stands behind Vouton not wishing to intrude=
I hope he can see past the rage...

I turn the corner and walk right into Dormii

Yay, there you are

I smile at him and take his hand, trying to pull him to the window

(Btw things written in bold are my thoughts only)

=doesn't respond to voutan's hand=
.......................Hey Vout, I'm gonna kill him. *starts laughing hysterically* What about you, what are you gonna do?!



~you can't spell slaughter without laughter.
- heard it somewhere...

=i take my helmet off and hug her, as she tries to pull me along. i lift her up off the floor, i try not to hug too tightly, knowing the effects of my armor= Hey, how's the vents?

=He smiles and hands him a dagger=
Voutan- Channel your passion.

Your anger gives you your focus.
Your passion, Your strength.
Your Rage gives you your courage.
And with it, you become a deadly weapon to those whe dare invoke it.

Come, i know what to do here.
=He heads back to the Spirit nd comes back with a stretcher and a long thin burlap sack strapped to his back=
C'mon. help me with her.

=She sighs and shakes her head=
Anger brings you nothing...

=She heads back to her pelican=

Ohh, shiny...

=i smile and kiss her= Still don't want to talk?

bye Ashlie... i hope to see you again.
=picks up stretcher and helps vout.=

=i allow myself to be pulled= What?

=He and Tar take Immer's body and put it the back of a transport Hog. Voutan climbs into the dirver's seat and takes them up to the nearby plateu=

We're still going to spread her ashes by the lake still, right?
=looks at Vout worried=

I'm a storm? You like me and rain? =jokingly= Lightning is fun? 'Cause, I have to say, lightning isn't all that fun.

=i put my arms around Jay, a smile on my face= I don't know what you are trying to say, meo amo. I'm sorry.

There's a storm in my heart?
