Chapter 7 War, War never changes part 6

=gets a comm from medbay and opens it=

jason that you

*Doctor*

I don't want to scare you, but it almost sounds like ALS. I'd like to run some tests, just to be sure.


(Jason)
=I agreed to the tests, and I subjected to MRI scans, blood work, and other tests. When they were done, I was lying on the bed, Miri by my side. The doctor walked over, a data pad in his hand=

*Doctor*

Well, I'm sorry to tell you this. While I have no idea what disease it is, you seem to be degenerating. It seems to be some type of, metabolic instability, though I have no idea what kind. I can tell you this: you are dying. Your body seems to be, falling apart, a cellular level.

(Dormii)
=i watch the screens=
Good plan. So, are there going to be an surprises in my fight with Rain? I mean like =i gesture to the screens= these.

(Jason)
=While the doc was giving me my death sentence, I got commed by zeru=

zeru wrote:

jason that you

=I held up a hand to stop the doc, and replied=

Uh, zeru, this is a bad time. I'm getting some bad news here.

=He shrugs=

I do not know.

=His eyes locked on the screens=

(Rain)

=I lean in and kiss her cheek=
=She had fallen asleep=
=I take her in my arms and lead her off to her room=
=I open her door, walk to the bed, and lay her down=
=Placing the cover on her=
=I flick the light off and look at her for a second=

Hmm...

=I head off to my room=

(Jason)

Well I.....look, just get down here as soon as you can. I don't really want to have to do this over the comms.

=I turned back to the doc=

So, what do you suggest I do?

*Doctor*

To be honest, there is no cure, at least for this. By my estimates though, you have only two months left to live. I'm....I'm sorry.


(Miranda)
=I broke down, sobbing into Jason's shoulder=

=heads back=


such a pain

(Jason)
=I felt empty. No anger, fear, sorrow.......just a void=

Two months? And you're sure there is no cure?

*Doctor*

I ran the tests, and they have concluded that, there is no cure. The most we can do is slow it down, but that won't really stop it.

(Jason)

Then let's try that.

=walks in=

put is this way to injection is going into the main artery in your neck jason

(Dormii)
=i watch the screens with Draco. After a bit he ends them and we go back to the Trophaeum. Once there, he wanders off, and I go to the messhall. I sit down and think about things. About Jay, Talfie, the UNSC, the war, the planet etc=

(Jason)

Great, when do we get started?

now i'll go get it


=walks into the office and comes out with injection=


i should warn you this will hurt not as much as the augments but still

(Jason)
=I got up=

I have endured worse pain.

well then hold still


=starts injecting with the autoinjector=

(Jason)
=While he injected, my hands clenched the bed. It hurt, but like I said, I was accustomed to pain=

=gets done and hands him some small auto boosters=


these you can inject your self prefferably in the leg

(Jason)
=I took the boosters, with a nod=

Thanks. You know what's happening to me then? That I'm dying?

(Jason)
=I took the news with no emotion. How was I supposed to respond?=

Look, I hate to ask this. But if I'm dying, then I want to get some business taken care of before I go. Would you guys be willing to help?

(Miranda)
=I was drying my eyes while Jason talked=

(Jason)
=I grinned a little, and I felt the fight in me giving new life=

Soon. I have a plan for ti, and i know where to go. Get everyone together. I want to lay it all out for them, and I don't want to do it twice.

(Dormii)
=i head to my room to get my armor on. i don't know why, but i feel the need to put it on=

(Jason)

For now, I need to get some food. Mull things over. When you get them all ready, can you have them meet me on my ship? The data is there anyway.

(Dormii)
=i get to my room and start putting my armor on. i stop, take off what i have on and climb into bed, falling asleep=

(Jason)
=Miri and I walked out of the med bay, and headed for the mess. Granted, Miri wasn't as calm as I was=

(Miranda)
=I was angry=

So, you're just going to ignore this? You're going to pretend, like nothing is wrong?

(Jason)
=I spun abruptly, and faced Miri, and my face was, for the first time in my relationship with her, cold stone=

What exactly do you expect me to do? I'm dying in less than two months. If that's the case, then I intend to make the best of my remaining time. And if that means assaulting Vigil's base, and taking them down with me, then so be it!

=I was angry. I was so full of rage. But there was sadness there, and a sea of sorrow. I wanted to marry Miranda, live the rest of my life with her. And my life got shortened to two months=

(Artyom)

=He had walked to the Hanger. Once there he climbed into Rebels Blight, throwing the crutches away. He goes over to the Med Storage, grabbing some painkillers.=

Code:

They aren't going to work...

Shut up Robin, not now...

=He takes them, and falls asleep in the pilots seat.=

(Senox)

=I was on the planet with the Zealots, we all had our 'Custom' made armour, which Zeru had made, on.=

(Jason)
=We walked into the mess hall, and got some food. While we ate, we talked=

Look, I'm sorry, for what I said, and how I said it. And I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner about my hand not working. I just didn't want to worry you.

(Miranda)

Yeah? Well, that plan went up in smoke. You should have told me Jason. I thought you trusted me.

(Jason)
=I banged a fist on the table, and it drew some eyes=

Of course I trust you. It's just, I had hoped, that what I saw was......... I don't know. I just didn't want to see you scared.

(Miranda)

Well, I'm scared. God, we were going to get married.

=He climbs out of the Pelican, armour on.=

I wonder who'll shoot me today... Or nearly disslocate my arm... Or...

Code:

Shut up.

(Jason)
=A lump formed in my throat=

You think I don't know that? You think, I haven't realized, that everything I had hoped, for a future with you, is now destroyed? Becuase believe me, that was the first thing that hit me, when the doc said I was dying.

=He had been wandering the halls when he collapsed=
=He had an episode=
=This particular episode reaching until the next day=
=The episode has just now subsided=
=He is laying on the ground. Still partially shaking=

That.........was.........a...long......one......

=He stays there until his vision returns=

=starts prepping the pods=

this gonna be intersting

(Miranda)

That doesn't mean you should be alone.

=I laid a hand on his=

If you are going to die, then let me be with you, till the end.

=As his vision slowly returns he stands up=
=He heads off to the messhall=
=Staggering as he walks=

(Dormii)
=i wake up and get my armor on. i head off to the messhall for some grub=

(Artyom)

=He begins to head to the Messhall.=

=He enters the messhall and staggers to a table=

Gods.......

=He sighs, sitting down=

(Jason)

Well, I'm sorry to say this. But I can't let you come with me. If anyone is going to die on this suicide mission, then it's going to be me. I'm the one, that carried out everything they did, so I should be the one to end it all.

(Dormii)
=i walk in, grab a salad with ranch dressing and go sit at the table with Draco=
Hey, you okay? You don't look so good.

=He enters the Messhall, walking over to the counter.=
