Chapter 4: Exodus Part 4

=my tongue follows hers, teasing and playing. my one hand starts to open he clothes while the othet simply holds her close. i start grinding slowly=

=watching snow from the office computers=

I wonder how long it will take him to realize he's not in the real world

=i look over at snow's unconscious form in Simulator=

At least this way we'll learn his true intentions, and why he overreacts to so much....

=I look out into the hallway and see and Elite peer at me=

Uh.. Hello?

=He waves back at me and continue on=

=I am dumbfound what just happened=

(As he wakes up he sighs)
(He looks up at the ceiling)
(The music still goin)

Hope she got that.

=I chamber a round in my pistol and go on the search for Ash=

Ok, where are you...

(He goes for comms again)
(Comms)
Ash.
I have some information.
I need your coords.

=I look at a direction board=

She will most likely be in her room

=I head for the housing areas=

~Dead on the inside,
Dead on the inside.
We don't wanna know,
Dead on the inside.
We don't want to know a secret,
We don't think it bears repeating.
We don't want to know what's really going on...

-Superdrag

=I wake up, Jay sleeping next to me. I watch her sleep for a few minutes before carefully getting up and getting dressed. I make sure she is still asleep before I leave the room and wander around. I end up in the sparring room, staring at what my madness wrote on the wall. It feels like a lifetime ago that I did that, but it was only a few hours ago. I lost track of time while I stood there=

=I begin to knock on doors=

Hello? Ash?

(He gets up from the bed)
(The music still goin)
(He exits the room)
(He goes outside)
(In the far distance he can see smoke)

Frick

(He goes into a run)
(He stumbles upon a crater with a drop pod in the middle)

Even more frick

(He hops down the crater)
(Noticing the drop pod face-down)
(He sighs)
(He grasps the pod, trying to get it free a bit)
(He manages to get the pod loose, fixating it up)
(He glares into the pod)
(He sees a figure)

=sees draco run past him=

Hey! where you go- and he's gone...

(Noticing the figure is passed out)
(He sighs)

Looks like you had a rough landing

(He chuckles)

=gets up and heads toward draco, notices him in the crater=

What's that you found!?

=I finally reach the room with Ash in it=

Oh, Ash, thank god...

=An Elite starts to pull me out=

Hey! Let me go you freak!

=He continues to pull me out and I catch the last glimpse of Ash=

LET ME GO!

=I fire a shot into the Elites skull, he falls to the ground with half a head=

(He grasps the sides of the pod)
(Trying to get the face off)

@Tar
A person

(The face begins to break off)

Cmon you

(The other side begins to break off)

Good thing I am a Juggernaut

(He rips the face off and throws it behind him)

Cool! anything i can do to help!?

(He sees a Spartan in the pod)
You dont belong in an ODST pod

(He takes the passed out Spartan out and walks out of the crater)
@Tar
Nope, not really

(He walks back to the base)

=Elites come to help their fallen comrades as I try to defend my self=

Just like old times..

=My pistol runs out of ammo and one picks me up by the neck and stabs their energy sword in my stomach=

=He stares me in the eye and I stare at his=

awwww.... well I'm gonna follow, I'm really bored at this point.

=follows draco=

(They reach the base)

@Tar
Do you know Jay.
Or Dormii?
Just curious cause we need to tell them.
If you do, por favor, find them.

=I catch the last sight of Ash, in pain..=
=I close my eyes and scilence.. cold.. scilence.=

Death at last...

i don't know of their whereabouts I'll keep an eye on this person if you don't mind...

=I wake up on a table=

FUCK!

=I look around and see Nikolaus, I charge out of the chair and punch him in the face=

Leave. Me. Alone.

(They enter the medbay)
@Tar
Ok, but we need to figure out if this Spartan has any injuries from the drop.
Or previous injuries.

(He inspects the armor)

Wow, upgraded...........

(He turns to Tar)
Im going to step out.
Keep an eye on him or her

You got it!

=stands in a guard-ish way=

=As Ash the Elite and David reach her room, she hears Draco's message repeat on her comms=
Excuse me...

=She turns away from the others and turns on her comms=
Draco?! You there? I got you message..? Hello?

(He steps out of the Medbay)
(He hears a voice)
(Comms)
@Ash
Hey, glad you got my message.

=I throw Nikolaus to the ground and collect my armour on the way out=

I need to get off this ship

=looks at the new spartan=

tuh! my armor's better.

=She smiles her tone lightens as she hears Draco's voice=
So did the mission go okay!? No one got hurt right..?

(He smiles and leans on the wall)
@Ash
Nope, no one got hurt
Jay gave me the chip.
We have an idea where to start.

=I look at the direction board and head for the hangers=

Ok, that is most likely where the Phantoms are... whoa.. Deja vu..

=She leans against a wall still keeping her back from the others=
Thank you Draco... You don't know what this means to me...

=I reach the hanger and push an Elite out of the way=

I will be commendieering this.

=I push a button, starting it up=

Lucky guess? Ok, now lets try getting out with out dying

=I start to slowly get out of the hanger, retreating baack to the planet=

@Ash
Its okay
I would do anything for you.

(He chuckles)

=She laughs to herself=
Thank you... If Jay is there... Thank her for me too...

=She glances back at the others briefly=
Do you need my cords?

I break on Ash and Draco's comm.

More like i'd do anything for you guys. Ash, it was no problem honestly. Sorry to hijack the comm. I'll go now.

I grin and relax back on the bed.

(He hears Jay break through)
(He laughs)
@Ash
Yeah.
I would like to see you again.

=She nods to herself, and grins=
If your still their Jay thanks, for everything..

=She stares down at her tac-pad=
I want to see you too... I'll send my cords to Andrea, when you get here I'll come find you in the hanger...

(He smiles)
@Ash
Alright.
Ill see you there.
I love you.

(He turns off the comms and heads back to the medbay)
(Tar is still standing over the new Spartan)

=She sighs turns off her comms and turns to David=
That was Draco... He's on his way up... Could... You help me to the Hanger..?

=She looks away=
I'm just not good with directions....

=She wakes up on a table, not knowing where she is or what events took place prior to her arrival. She sits up and takes off her helmet. She gasps for breath. She puts her helmet back on and takes a reading of chemicals in the air. Mainly Oxygen. Her armor takes in some oxygen and converts it to (poisonous gas). The gasfills her armor and she looks around=

hey your awake!

=looks at the spartan=

(He notcies the spartan awaken)
(He sticks out his hand)

Hello, my name is Draco
This is Tar-Tun
Your name is?

=gives draco a glare=

i'm completely capable of introducing myself...

David nods, smirking, "Of course. How would you like my help?"

=She looks at the two people before her and listens to them speak in a way she does not undestand, although she feels like she could. She gets up off the table and almost falls to the ground, not used to the difference in gravity=

uhh... you ok?

(He helps the Spartan)

Hey.
No need to leave just yet
