Chapter 4: Exodus Part 4

=I cough and start to talk=

I already.. told you.

=I scramble to his hand as I start to lose oxygen=

What's with this guy..?

=She moves her leg, so he will look at her=
Who are you..? Do you know me..? Its just...

=Ash speaks nervously=
The way you look at me.. Its like you know me..?

(His hand grips tighter)
@Snow
That is not the reason.
You know it

(His grip loosens, so Snow can breath)

=I take a large breath, trying to stay conscious=

I.. don't know.. what to.. tell you!

=I try to reach for my pistol=

(He grabs Snow's pistol from its holster with his free hand)
(He tosses it)
@Snow
You are pathetic

(He drops Snow)
(He slugs him in the face)

You couldnt shoot me back on that ship.
In yet you could shoot Ash.

= I smile, and look up at her, meeting her gaze=

you could say that.....

=I put a bandage over the nearly healed wound, then get up and look around the room, I walk over to the cabinet and retrieve some crutches=

I want you to take a few steps, using the crutches as, well, a crutch.

=i lean the crutches up against the bed and remove the IV from her arm.=

ready?

You don't think I won't shoot you? I will fucking shoot you now!

=I take my DMR from the one point sling and aim it at Draco=

I WILL BLOW YOUR FUCKING HEAD OFF!

@Snow
You are a coward
You were a coward then
And you are a coward now

(He stands his ground)

=He reaches from his equipment belt and retrieves a grenade=

Ok.. let's play catch.

=I pull the pin and toss it into his hands=

(He catches it and quickly throws it behind him)
(He smiles)
@Snow
Let it cook.

(The grenade lands a good distance away and explodes)

=I raise my DMR backup to eye level and fire a couple shots into his exoskeleton and fall back behind the building=

=I retrieve another grenade=

Make it count

(Before the shots could hit)
(He activates the Jackel Shield the bullets ping off)
(He notices Snow go behind the building)
@Snow
Run.
Helljumper.
I will stand and fight, like the Spartan I am

=I cook the grenade and count to 3 and throw it in his direction=

I would too if I had 2 tons of steel protecting me!

=I fall back to my pillbox and ready the Machine Gun=

David awoke looking over to Ash.to a ringing bell, lookimg back at A
sh, "Morning."

(He jumps before the grenade could explode)
(He does a flip, unholsters his Handcannon and fires at the grenade)
(The bullet makes contact and explodes)
(He lands)
(He continues to stand his ground)

=I fire the machine gun at the hulking metal man=

Come on you hunk of steel, show me what you got!

(He hears the gunfire)
(He shoots off into the gunfire)
(Using his shield to deflect most of the bullets)
(He grabs a cryo bomb and tosses it in front of the Gun)
(It goes off and freezes the Gun)
(He stops)

=I quickly release my hands from the frozen weapon=

=I stand my ground and continue to fire round after round at Draco=

(He raises the shield up once more)
Increased Power.

(He smiles as the bullets ping off)

@Snow
Cmon, Helljumper
You have to be better than that

=My DMR runs out of ammo and I throw it to the ground=

Well.. this decides it

=I take out my knife and rush at Draco=
=One stab depletes part of his shield=

(He smiles)
(He deactivates all shields)

@Snow
Cmon then.
Hand to Hand.
No shielding.

(He awaits the first move)

=I grip my knife in a better position=

Your move.. I have taken too many

=I stand ready=

(He tilts his head)
@Snow
No one has ever given me the first move

(He smiles)
Should be fun.

(He runs at Snow)
(Slamming his Robotic Fist into the side of Snow's face)
(He knees Snow in the stomach)

=My ears ring at the piece of metal hits my face=
=I move out of the way of the knee and hack at the weak around his stomach=

(He feels the blade)
(He lets the pain in)
@Snow
That felt good

(He round house kicks Snow in the ribs)
(The sound of bones breaking is heard)

=I fly back onto the ground from the pain of ribs being smashed=

=I try to get up, but the pain is too great=

Alright.. you got me.. I can't move.

(He stands over him)
(He resembles a giant blocking the sun)
(He laughs)
@Snow
That was fun.
It has been awhile since I could fight
Next time you see Ash.
Apologize to her.

(He walks off)

=I flip the knife to my fingers and point the blade at him=

Wait! I am not done!

=I throw the knife at him, but the handle hits him in the heel... it has no effect=

(He grabs the knife and keeps it)
@Snow
Thank you for the knife
And it looks like you are pretty much done to me.
Unless you want me to crush your windpipe.

GET THE HELL BACK HERE, I WILL FIGHT YOU WITH MY FISTS!

=I wobbley get up, trying to ignore pain and throw up my hands in a semi boxer stance=

(He looks at Snow)
@Snow
Live with your pain
For all eternity.
Let the darkness consume you
Feel the way I do.
When you die.
Requiescat en pace.

(He walks off once more)

=I try to follow Draco, the pain is non stop and I collapse=

Get! Back... here...

=I start to cough=

@Snow
Let the pain enter your dreams.
Fall into the abyss.
Never return.
Pain, suffering, misery
I cast this upon thee.
Sleep for all eternity.
Requiescat en pace.

(He continues to walk)

=Ash nods at Nikolaus, and takes the crutch=
Your really good at avoiding questions you know... But thanks, for the patch up I mean...

=She turns back and spots David getting up=
How did you find this place..? To you two know each other..?

Thank you

=I look at David=

David shook his head, "Don't think so. I'm not going to let an ONI spook operate on a friend of mind alone." He smirked.

Friend..? I thought you hated me after what I said...

=She turns back to Nikolaus=
So you are Oni..? Then what are you doing here..? I can't go back to that cell...

"Of course not." He looked to Nikolaus. "You're not."

=irritated=
hmmmmmmmmm

=to David=

Dammit it david, I was doing so well with avoiding her questions

=to Ashlie Cole=

I am occasionally with ONI, I was discharged, or Fired, i guess., but they still give me missions and suggestions as to what to research and such. But for the most part I'm independent, and do charity work as a doctor, treating people and such.

=I pause for a moment then continue=

I saw that, you in a cell I mean. I was in orbit ready to come down when I received a new mission and had to leave...

(He continues on)
(Going around)
(He heads off to the messhall)
(He takes a seat)

"Sorry Doc, but until I know your motives, I dunno what to think of you."

= I look at david=
understandable, if I were in your position I would do the same.

(He takes off his helmet and looks around)
(He places his head on the table)

=Her eyes meet his=
What?! You saw me in the cell..?

=Her eyes widen=
Are you going to tell me what you know? This is to weird...

How much does this guy know about me..?

=My eyes lock with hers=

Yes. What I know? about what, Specifically?

What you know about me..? The way you were looking at me...

=She begins to act more nervous, her eyes move away from his=
Why would you be watching my cell..?

=noticing her nervousness=

I wasn't watching, I noticed. They have hidden cameras in the cells. I saw one of the feeds. I don't know what I know about you....

=to David=

How long ago did you go AWOL?

"A few years, why?" He looked to Nilolaus.

Isn't it a bit odd to be watching random cells..?

=She looks around the room, and clutches her arm=
This is just to weird... This hidden bunker... Everything he knows about Dormii.. Why won't he tell me the truth...?

hmmmmm..... thats about the same time Lazarus was scrapped.... you wouldn't have had anything to do with that, would you?

=I look at David knowingly, not hearing what Ashlie Cole said=
