Unfortunately

Oh yea, orders. =i look at him and roll my eyes= Why can't you make your own decision?

Because if I don't, it is my head on the chop block. I can't believe you hadn't figured that out yet.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 04:34 am

=i walk out of the room with Snow, noticing Jay is playing chess=
I did, but why do they get to decide things for you?

Beats me.

=I shrug=

To keep order is my guess.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 04:36 am

And if you received an order to kill everything you found?

=i raise an eyebrow=

=i chuckle, slightly=
But where is the order in that? Killing everything you find?

Well I am sure it was for a good reason.

=I smile and peer into Jay's room=

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 04:49 am

And if it was because there was a suspected runaway in that area?

Depends on what kind of runaway.

=I step into Jay's room, intrigued by the chess game=

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 04:52 am

=I smile and shake my head. I follow after him, leaning on the wall to watch. I stay as quiet as I can so she doesn't lose concentration=

=i stand there, watching Jay play chess, i start to remember my team again, my old team. i don't know that when i do, all my sense effectively freeze, my motions repeat, my eyes lose focus, my breathing stays the same etc. I don't react to my surroundings changing=

Quote :: =we are on a ridge overlooking an Innie base. Karl marks targets with his sniper scope, putting little arrows above our targets' heads. He scans the whole base, he marks 74 targets=

Me-Stay sharp though, there could be more where we cant see them.

=they all turn on their Acknowledge light and clap their guns twice, a small joke we made a long time ago in training. we set off towards the perimeter=

Me-Ice, shotgun time, but keep the sniper loaded, just in case.

Karl-Affirmative.

Me-Rebel, Purple, Ice, up and over. Mattman, with me, same thing just a few meters down.

All-understood

=i watch as Lana, Mat, and Karl all vault the wall in silence. Matt and I run down a ways and do the same=

=the memory fades, and i am back to watching Jay play chess. i remain quiet=

You guys can make as much noise as you want. I've lost anyway

Code:: She has. In fact after next move it's checkmate

I knock the king down as a surrender

I don't know why i bother playing that with you Night.

Code:: Because you enjoy it

True.

You don't know the half of it.

Code:: I'll leave you in peace

You do that Night.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 06:09 am

=i watch as Snow leaves, mumbling something about sleep and "he's yours now." i turn back to Jay and smile=
How are you holding up?

I. Am fine. I think the question is, hows things down there?

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 06:14 am

=i raise an eyebrow jokingly=
I'm assuming you meant in the cells. Well, I found out that Ash got her wits scared out of her by someone, Draco may or may not have had another love in his life, and I'm perfectly fine, relatively.

Hm Ash.

I turn back to my desk and start writing on the notepad

Night. I need those results any time.

Code:: Yes Jay, they're already available for you if you look

Well print them out or something. I want them on paper.

Code:: Your in a good mood again. They're already printed and waiting for you in your tray.

Of course they are.

I mutter to myself quietly

I hate having an AI who knows whats yet to come.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 06:21 am

=i walk over to her desk, careful not to look at any important files=
Need any help with anything?

=i rest my hand on hers=

Nothing.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 06:30 am

=i look at her worried=Nothing? Nothing at all? You seem stressed, Jay. I just want to help.

Im fine. Night, get him an escort back to the cells.

Code:: It's already waiting outside

Of course.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 06:35 am

Okay, okay, I'll take the hint.

=i go to leave, i put my arm around her and rub her arm= I don't care what it is, but I am here to help.

=i let go and start leaving with the Marines turning to follow=

The Marines surround Dormii and escort him to his cell. The Marine, Nikolas Oehlberg, is among them.

Relax, your life is short, we're all going to die. Some are already dead, they just don't know it yet.

=i sigh as we reach the cell. i quickly go through the open one and through the hole in the wall to my cell=

I scan through the results of the testing.

Hmm so this is the...

Code:: Increased brainwave and cognitive functions. Yes. As you can see with the high fluctuations, they were being pushed nicely and their brains were adapting.

So what your saying is....

Code:: If we keep up the treatment, they'll come around. Yes. Or well at least enough to fool ONI that they are tame.

Good. And yo....

Code:: Installed the code word, ran it through them one hundred times in each test. Made sure it got into their subconscious. Yes.

Will you stop...

Code:: Finishing your sentences?

Dammit Night.

David sighed, not getting a reply on the comms-device and decided to lay back down, contemplating where everyone was. He didn't see them at the hotel, or anywhere nearby for that matter. Oh well, he was sure he'd see them soon enough. Maybe they were on Nikolaus' ship?

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 07:17 am

=i take out the energy scalpel, not caring if the Marines see it or not. i start twirling it in my fingers, absent-minded, hypnotized=

Code:: You seem angry. Is this because Ash was mentioned.

Yes. yes it was Night, okay?

Code:: No it isn't okay.

Rhetorical Night....

Code:: You can't let that get to you so much. You need to earn Ash's trust back.

I tried that okay. Didn't go so well. i tried letting them in on the plan. I tried being friendly. All rejected by her.

Code:: Well you did spy on them and become that which they hated.

Your so helpful and supportive at times.

Code:: I didn't think i was being

You should turn on your sarcasm filters more often.

Code:: Oh

So what about him then. Any news on where the ship is.

Code:: Actually yes, i've found some reports recently of a few sightings. Apparently a phantom was seen descending onto a planet in the Datura system. The ship must be close by to there.

Yeah great. Now we just have to search an entire system for a ship that's black and can only be seen while its in space. I'm sure this won't take long at all.

Code:: That was sarcasm

I clap sarcastically

Your getting there.

Code:: That was definitely sarcasm

I sigh

I could just get out, leave, forget all of this. But I can't leave Jay. I can't leave the others, not like this. I have to stay, help them get through this...

No chance.

I hug him back and stand up

Just thought you might appreciate some time out of that cell.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 07:39 am

I do appreciate it. I appreciate it a lot. It gets, well, kinda boring in there.

=i hug her tighter and give her a kiss=

What, to bore me into submission? I have to say, it's working.

Possibly. I didn't come up with your treatments. I just enforce them.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 07:49 am

Well, that makes it that much easier to endure, having you round.

=i mock fear= Oh, wait, I mean, oh so much harder because i thought you loved me!

=i smile and kiss her again= Just in case they are listening.

Code:: Right on it

The door shuts and locks and all cameras and audio devices are disabled.

No-ones listening now.

Subject: Re: Chapter 5 Revelations of the Past Part 4 09/07/11, 07:52 am

So, what did you have in mind?
