Chapter 4: Exodus part 2

=He walks back through the ship, and eventually back into the hanger. He is carrying a blood-splattered body over his shoulder, a small bloody brown cloth sack on his side, and holds a head and spine by its hair in his other hand. He climbs back into the Spirit, and heads off to his room, passing by Tar-tun=

@Ash
Saving me.
I would not know.
Where, I would be without you.

(He hugs her tighter)

oh, hey- HOLY SHIT MAN WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU??!!
=eyes widend, and arms raised=

=He ignors the comment and heads off to his room=

Voutan- Take us back. I have work to do.

=He goes into his room and begins to work his magic on his newest prize=

=Her gaze is removed from Draco's=
I guess I know where I would be...

=She looks back up to him and forces a smile=
What now..? Will you still leave with me..?

=takes the Spirit pack to the compound=

.................I'm not hungry anymore....

=i laugh a little= Ok, you almost had me. An AI, in my suit. If there was an AI, it would've talked to me. Cmon, seriously, what'd you do?

(He nods)
@Ash
Yes.
Will you want me to go.

=She reaches for his hand and nods=
Of course! I mean what would you do with out me!

=She laughs to herself=

=He hangs the newly polished Skull and Spine on his trophy wall with his other most prized kills. He places the armor on a shelf beneath it. He takes the battered body back up on his shoulder and walks out into the rec room and sees Tar. He tosses him the small brown blood-drenched bag=

Voutan- That's for you.

=He walks down to the exit ramp and into the courtyard and looks for Zeru and Dormii=

=looks in bag handed to him=
you, can't-you uhgh
=runs out of the craft, nearly bumping into Vout=
oh god........
=throws up all over the ground=
damn

=He walks up to Zeru in the courtyard and drops the headless and mutilated body on the ground in front of Zeru=

Voutan- Fix it now, you fuck.

=He walks back to the Spirit and begins training with his sword=

=i look at him warily= Ok. You wait here. I'm going to get my armor.

=i go to collect my armor passing the Medbay on the way. i go and check on Jay=

(He laughs)
(Life returning to his eyes)
(He takes her hand and squeezes it)
@Ash
You know I love you.

=i crouch down next to Jay= You feeling any better?

=worry and concern are all over my face=

I ignore Dormii and touch my face, feeling the injuries.

Minor. Not....Nothing....Wrong.

You up for a walk? Zeru said that my armor has an AI in it. I was going to check it out. Wanna come?

=i am fully expecting a "no," but i keep my hopes up=

I do... You know I will always love you too right... No matter what happens?

=She kisses him longer this time=
No matter where we go... Or whatever happens, I will always feel better with you by my side

=She smiles=

(He smiles)
@Ash
I do.
What do you want to do now

what is wrong with that shit?! a god damn heart-in-a-bag?!

=begins feeling dizzy, running with no sense of where he's going=

where am i going?

=everything begins to go black=

someone...

=i nod when she shakes her head= Ok, I'll be right back. If you need me I'll be in the courtyard.

-i give her a kiss on her head, careful of her nose and lip. i go, put my armor on, and head back to Zeru=

=to Zeru= What was it I should say?

=i notice the body= Friend of yours?

=She sighs=
I don't know any more... We could leave, if you want to? Or see if the others are around...

=She brushes her hair behind her ear=
Looks like those are our options... Unless you have any ideas?

(He stands)
@Ash
You wanted to find Jay right.
I saw Dormii rush her into the base.

(He holds out his hand)

=He heads back out into the courtyard an sees Tar's passed out body=

Voutan- You are weak...

=He goes back into the ship. he closes the Entry ramp and goes into his room to read=

=She nods and takes Draco's hand=
If she wants to see me...

=She smiles=

=i mutter into my helmet when i put it on= Bellum et pax online.

Code:

 A.I. activated. Booting up...

=to Zeru= What do you suggest?

(They head to the base)
(They enter and traverse the hallways, looking for Jay)

(He looks down)
@Jay
Well hello there.

Looks like you finally left those vents?

=She laughs and holds out her hand to Jay=
I just came... To say sorry for the way I treated you...

=She retracts her hand from Jay=
Sorry... I just wanted to make things right before we left...

=She turns to Draco=
I guess we should go...

=to Zeru= I'm up for storming his ship, but Jay wo--
