| (Sam) "God, I was never angry at you Hibiki. I was angry at him. For never even considering it, after everything we had been through. But I never took it out on Eve, not really. All that happened with her was me trying to find comfort, but I never planned on finding love, especially from her."
(James) "There was something else: it seems the Shepherds have been holding out on us. They had a chopper, headed south." =That certainly grabbed their attention=
*Clarissa* "A helicopter? You're sure?"
(James) "Without a doubt." | |

| Hibiki was right in front of her, hands gripping Sam's collar. "Not really? Especially from her? You better clarify what you mean. Because right now Sam, it sounds like you just used a girl who lost everything just to mame yourself feel better. A girl who barely is beginning to get her mother back. Who has thought for so long now she found love. So you clarify right now, or God so help me Sam. God so help me." | |

| (Sam) "I love her Hibiki, I do. But like I already told her, I just don't know what kind of love I have for her. She's my friend. And the fact that I hurt her sickens me."
*Clarissa* "If they had a copter, they could have simply circumvented our defenses."
(James) "I can only guess the reason they didn't was because they didn't have the fuel. That and there were no weapons for it." | |

| Hibiki softens, letting Sam go. "Figure it out Sam. If not you, for her. Because right now, only you can fix her broken heart." Hibiki crossed her arms. "Anything else?" | |

| (Sam) "Not really....just, sorry. For everything. I didn't want to put you in this position." =And then I walked away=
*Cooper* "That's probably why they didn't use it, but the fact they have it is bad enough. Why was it going south though?"
(James) "The map showed that south has a high concentration of Shepherd bases. Maybe it was heading home?"
*Cooper* "Probably." | |

| (Sam) =I kinda planned on doing that. But I wasn't sure how much time I should actually give her=
*Clarissa* "Regardless, we'll deal with it when the time comes. In the meantime, we have other issues besides Shepherds."
*Cooper* "She's right. We still have other people to deal with. We're going back to the base tomorrow, but you can stay here James. We're going to search for any supplies we can salvage."
*Clarissa* "And, there are other groups who would like to see us dead. The raiding group over in the junkyard has been as much a harassment as the Shepherds." | |

| After finally gathering up all of my remaining ba- courage I head to Hotel. I was heading back to Jen, to tell her I'm sorry. But, in the lobby I trip over a chair, a wheelchair to be exact. I was being all too occupied to look or think correcty. Once I regain my senses from my little tumble, I look up to see what I had tripped over. And... well. It was Andrew. The guy who openly expressed how he wanted to harm me. Not that I can blame him of course... but still. | |

| =I look at the person who had tripped on my wheelchair and interrupted my thoughts. Tyler...the kid who had left us earlier, and who I nearly throttled. Those issues we had between each other were long behind us. And besides...I was in no condition to fight much less bawl out the kid for some past transgression. Nonetheless, I still let out a bit of a curse as I felt a spike of pain run up my back=
Dammit...!
=I then bit back the curse, more annoyed than angry that my nap was disturbed. I just settled for something simple, silently thanking him from pulling me back from the abyss=
Oh...it's you.

*Clarissa* "Take some time to rest James, you've earned it. Besides, we can't attack these bandits yet, not so soon after the Shepherd base."
(James) "Thanks Clarissa, I appreciate it." =With the rest of the discussion over, I was free to leave, and head back downstairs= | |

| Hibiki was standing outside their room, leaning against the wall. She was troubled and didn't want to go in yet. Meant she'd probably sit down. She really didn't want to sit down, or lay down. | |

| (Sam) =I sat alone in the room, save for the cat. I wasn't sure what to do really, other than the obvious. But I had already apologized to Eve, and she had forgiven me. That wasn't enough to make up for everything though. I sifted through my thoughts, trying to concentrate on a solution, if there was one. I wanted Eve to be happy, to be alive. But I didn't want my loving her, especially that way, to be the main reason she was happy in the first place. To me, that seemed a poor way to live for both sides: I'd be her crutch, and if anything happened to me she'd be crippled. Something told me that was no longer the case anymore, but it was still a fear that kept me from doing anything=
(James) =When I got back down to the hallway, I saw Hibiki, leaning against the wall outside the room. She had a pensive look on her face, and it told me that something was up. Walking up to her, I gave her a quick kiss on the cheek, leaning back a little= "Something on your mind?" | |

| "Sam came to talk to me. Please talk me out ot beheading her like she's some bandt in Skyrim James." Hibiki said sadly.
Eve climbed down from her tree, not n othring to wipe away lingering tears, and headed for the room toget her stuff. | |

| (James) =I sighed. So it's like that then= "I had a feeling this was going to happen. Eve ran into me, crying....and I had to mediate the discussion between her and Sam."
=Leaning against the wall beside her, I stared at the opposite wall= "Look.....with Sam right now, she's conflicted. She loves Eve, I know that much. But she's trying to figure out just what type of love it is she has for her. I know her too well Hibiki, she would never do this out of malice. It's all just....as foreign to her as it is to Eve." | |

Eve was heading to get her stuff. | |

| Hibiki nodded. "Can't wait for our son to get to that age...can we put one of those chastity belts on his or something? " she asked slightly hopefully.
Eve arrived at the door finally...she was about to knock. But she was afraid. Afraid Sam wouldn't say anything to her. Nothing at all. Ever again..
Eve took a deep breath. "Take risks..." Eve knocked. | |

(James) =I chuckled= "Doubt it. Besides, with us as parents, he'd hardly stand for it. Probably kill us or try and get it off." | |

| Eve went in and gathered her things Sam wouldn't say anything. Eve just knew. So, the girl gathered her things, slung her bow, and looked at Sammy. The cat stretched and made a leap onto Eve's shoulder. The girl and her cat headed for the door
Hibiki smiled. "As long as you don't let him see Rambo..." | |

| If you'll excuse me...I'll be off.
=And with that, I rolled back to my room, feeling a bit more well rested. That is, until I felt my stomach rumble=
Well...I did work up a bit of an appetite...
=I then wheeled to the cafeteria, hoping to get a good lunch=
First comes food...resting up can wait...
=I smile, feeling much better than I did yesterday=

| Eve loved being wrong. So she stopped and half turned to Sam. "I'm sorry too. Because my love, nor anyones, has an off switch that is instantaneous. " she sighed. "I forgave you Sam. I am upset and hurt. But I'll be fine..." She closed her eyes. "Start forgiving yourself for your own fuckups...like I have." She didn't move still. Should she offer an olive branch? Or just leave her? Relationships were confusing. But hey. Rather find a lifeline she could hold on with Ll her strength, right? Eve waited for Sam's response quietly. | |

| Eve's eyes teared up. She walked back to put her stuff on the table before sitting on her bed. Sammy jumped onto her lap and splayed out. "Hello. I am Eve. I'm your roommate." She said diplomatically. | |

| Eve smiled...then got up, walked to Sam, and flicked her forehead. "That's my payback...so clean slate." She said with full seriousness befoe returning to he bed. Eve was naive...and finally felt she could express the feelings that she had thought been repressed for so long by her father, her situation...everything.
Hibiki grinned. "How do you want to choose celebrate?" | |
