Chapter 7 War, War never changes part 7

(Dormii)
I'm going to go check up on the sign-up sheets.

=i get up=
If you need help, comm me.

=i nod to both of them and head out to the hanger=

(Rain)

=I nod=

Aight

=I look at Talfie=
=I smile=

=I put my head down=

Night notices me staring at her.

Code:

What?

Don't undermine me like that!

Code:

I am the commanding AI aboard this ship and may i remind you without me, you'd be dead.

I stand up and walk away from her, muttering

Commanding is right....

(Lynn and Grace)

=They round a corner=
=Lights out=
=Lynn turns her light on and they carry through=

Lynn-Hmm...

=Their footsteps echo through the empty halls=

Code:

And just where do you think you're going?

With Lynn and Grace.

Code:

Shelby. Your systems are damaged. To expose yourself to a low atmosphere environment could rip you apart.

And?

Code:

Stop being a silly, little girl.

I begin suiting up, ignoring Night's protests.

(Lynn and Grace)

=She hears something and turns around quickly=
=She scans the area=

Lynn-Nothing..

=She shakes her head and turns around=
=Going further with Grace=
=They pass the messhall=

I step to the airlock and switch Night off of my external comms. I take a deep breath.

Here goes.

I pass from one ship to the other without an issue.

(Lynn and Grace)

=They walk in and look around=

Lynn-Spotless...

Grace-Anything else?

Lynn-Hmm...

(Artyom)

=He falls asleep.=

(Dormii)
=i arrive on the Repent. i head off to the locker rooms to check up on the sign up tabs=

(Dante)

=He had been watching the trainees in the observation room=
=Occaisonally going out to be a variable=
=He is currently in the observation room, sending in the next groups of trainees=

Hmm

That last one. The trainees did well

(Dormii)
=i check the sign up sheets. 2-3 people on this one. i head to the next=

=A medic enters the room=

Medic-Sir, how are your wounds

=He looks at his left arm. Bandaged, some blood showing=

Dante-It is doing well. Thank you.

Medic-Alright, How are you, Sir.

Dante-I am fine, You.

Medic-Oh.... Our captain would never ask us that... =she smiles= I am doing well. Thank you.

=He nods and she leaves=

(Dormii)
=i check the others. Each one as 2-4 names on them. i head up to the observation deck, passing a medic on the way. i nod to her and keep going=
Hey, how are things?

=He nods=

Well.

=He smirks=

They managed to get me.

(Dormii)
=my eyebrows shoot up=
Oh, really? A trainee nicked a Spartan? I gotta hear this story.

=starts walking around=

=He smirks=

It is quite the tale.
Full of danger.

=He laughs=

I popped out of my cover too early.

=He shrugs=

Greatest story ever.

(Dormii)
=i laugh as well=
I'll never understand why you insist on live rounds. So, what was the scenario?

The scenario was four versus four, team "deathmatch".

=He smirks=

I was out there all on my lonesome.
My objective was to "secure""secrets".
There objective was to fight the other team and prevent me from my objective.

(Dormii)
=i chuckle=
Well, at least they got some bonus points, huh?

=He nods=

Yeah.
How are the sign-ups going.

=His eyes leaving the screens=
=The Medic from before enters giving him some pills=

Medic-Every four hours. No exceptions.

=He nods=

Dante-Of course. Thank you.

=She smiles and heads off, nodding to Dormii=

Medic-Hello, Sir.

=She walks off=

(Dormii)
Hello.

=to Draco=
I got some good numbers. I was thinking of letting them hang for another day or two before calling them up for training.

=He nods=

Right

=He thinks for a moment=

It seems I have forgotten your sparring match with Rain.
My apologies, my mind has not been there for me recently

=Hope appears=

Hope-Im sorry, Draco...Just...been trying to clear some things.

Dante-I understand. It was a joke

Hope-Oh...I should have known that...

=She shakes her head=

Hope-Im sorry...

Dante-It is fine

=He comms Rain=

Dante-Cousin, it is time.

Rain(waking up)-What? Oh! Dang it.....

=A day passes. The rebels are gone. The Marines went through the tunnel. Nolan and Aces are stuck on the cliff. Lance and the Vulture + Alpha are trying to find Nolan and Aces, They are now trying to comm them. The rebels are planning an air attack. Christopher finds his way back to the base.=

Nolan - We are going to die in the storm if no one finds us.

Joseph - What about Christopher?

Nolan - I don't... I don't know.

Pilot - Got a flare?

Gunner - One is in the tool box.

Pilot - Okay. Shoot it.

=They shoot a flare. Alpha team sees the flare and tells Ward to go towards it.


Rebels*

Rebel - Get the hornets ready.

Rebel - Yes sir.

Rebel - How many should I get ready?

Rebel - 12.


Alpha&Lance ***

Alpha - Get to the flare!

Ward - Already heading there.

=The rebels hornets take off=

Marines ****

Marine - Get all the marines to the pelicans. Lets get the engineers to safety.

Marine - Yes sir.

(Dormii)
=i shake my head=
I'm not sure we should. He was badly beat up earlier.

=He looks at him=

What do you mean.
What did he do this time.

=Somewhat of concern pushing through his voice=

(Dormii)
=i shrug=
He told me he got into a fight with someone. His arm was kinda busted up among other things.

=He shakes his head=
=Comming again=

Change of plans.
You are sparring with Dormii tomorrow
Do not get into another fight.
Do you understand me.

Rain-Yeh....

=I sigh and lay my head back down=

(Dormii)
So, now that I suddenly have some free time, wanna go find the new armor and take a look?

=He nods=
=Speaking into the microphone=

Well done.
Sessions finished.

=He stands up=

That would be very nice.
Lead the way.

=i fell asleep kind of, but i'm a little awake=

=starts heading to the bridge=

(Rain)

=I lift up my head=
=Looking around=

Huh...

(Dormii)
=i nod=
Away we go.

=we head off looking=


(Lana)
=we sit down under a tree. i rest my head against his shoulder=

=i finally drift into sleep=

=I head out the door to my room, closing her door=

(Dormii)
