Killing the Pain

[Hera]

"I will get on this right away. Thank you Peter...for...having faith in me."

I bow and leave Peter. I go to my room and gather a few things. The most important item: my schimitars. I am not sure where the dragons are right now, so I click on the news. Then I see him: Aries.

That is the dragon I want.

I look at him hatefully.
Looks like I am going to America.

I take the on base teleporter and go to Pheonix, Arizona. Louhi and her dragon minions are not far from here.

[Peter "The Owl"]

Peter Travels after Hera, following close behind but with enough distance to insure that he will not effect her test. She had to do it. She had to.

[Hope98]

"I uh...don't know. I never thought these things were possible, so they were never priorities. My priority in life is to over throw Red Infinity. I guess I never thought much of those other things."

I drink my coffee and think.

"Sure, I don't want to be alone. No one does. I just never really thought of it, since so many things must happen. Red Infinity must first fall. Even then, I am a machine. That lifestyle is beyond my reach."

[Trish]

Trish grabs Virgils hand and walks behind him.

"Shh be quiet Virg if someone hears us i might not be able to get my clothes back. Or maybe they want to play with us. Oh Virg its been so long since we got to fight....Promise me we can soon."

She continues to follow him. She had been so d'amn bored up until now. She wanted to do something.

[Helene]

I have a slightly confused look on my face but I understand too.
-Your right... completly right...-
I roll off of Deetric onto the floor and pick up his mask.
-Here. We should get dressed and go back to the base.
I hold his mask out to him with a smile on my face.

[Runic Shimmerskin]

Runic shakes his head, "Ms. Dayspring, I have been around a long time. I have seem many things change in my lifetime but there have always been families.

"At one time or another, all the people of this world thought themselves too different to be included, to have a family. I'm sure it's possible. After all, once we topple Infinity, we will both have to find new meaning in our lives. I can't go back to my library, it's gone. And you have nothing. You should build something before you tear down this system. Just my opinion of course."

[Hope98]

"That is interesting. You are right. I dedicate my life to destroying, but what do I create? I have my friendships, and those are important. But there should be more to this life."

I wonder why Calithin and I have never discussed these things. I guess we are both so busy that we just don;t have time to chat about life. I wish we did. I may be afraid to. I would feel strange suggesting anything about having a future together. I would scare him off I think.

[Virgil- The Prophet]

Virgil hugs her, "I promise we're gonna go about and find ourselves the biggest dragon they got out there, kill it, split it open, and shower in it's blood. Now come on," he takes her hand and keeps walking, "I think I found... your cloths." He sees them, one leg of the pants hanging out of a dumpster. "Oh man, they throw them out? Those b'astards threw them out with the trash!?

[Deetric Proudmore]

Deetric puts his mask back on, calming his breathing slowly. "It's just... to fast. I love you Helene, I really do, but I don't want to rush into anything. And, there's your son to consider."

[Antero Black]

My attacks hurt Lilith, but the attacks of others did not. Why me? I am weak and only a human. Then I think about it. I am half Finnish. Could that be something?

I do not reply to Lilith since I can not reply.

I use my enhanced physical abillies to jump up onto a building near her.

I pull out more bombs, and throw them at her.

"..Ie!!"

[Helene]

I hold up my hand and smile a little wider.
-I understand. No need to explain. But I do need to go to the base. Winter has had Lysander for 5 days. Its a little to long, no?-
I turn and walk into my closet.

[Runic Shimmerskin]

"So, tell me about your boyfriend. Forgive me but from the way you talk I find it hard to believe that you have a boyfriend as I understand them. Do you ever talk about the future? Go on dates?"

[Deetric Proudmore]

Deetric sighs and begins to put his cloths back on. This had been a crazy day. He was worried about Helene's son. The child was growing fast and if the boy found out that Deetric was dating his mother when his own father was still around it might be complex.

[Hikari]

I smile at Riku and plop down on the floor. I couldn't think of anything to do.. absolutely nothing. I just knew I needed some fresh air.
I glanced at the other two and blinked with a small smile. I sighed and sprawled on the floor.
"Do we seriously have no ideas whatsoever?" I asked incredously.
I stand up and pick up some clean clothes as i headed to the bathroom to change. Once I dressed and walked out the bathroom I told Lady Violet I was off and left the house.
I relaxed as soon as the air hit me. I breathed in lightly and stared up at the morning sky. I smiled warmly and started walking down the sidewalk, just walking aimlessly...

[Hope98]

"I am sorry, oh no..no...I don't want you to get the wrong impression. Let's see. I adore him. He is smart and challenging. He is very brave and noble. Sometimes he is arrogant...well, most of the time actually. No, we have never once gone out on a date. We have been together for a few months. I think I kissed him on the lips about..oh twice...and one time I almost got to sleep next to him, but then he had to go to a fight. Hmm...well, we both are warriors so we each have to fight a lot. We hardly get to see each other. It is very hard on me."

I sound like a complete sap, but it is hard. So hard. I wish I could kiss him or hold him more than I have. Yet, we are always doomed to be seperated.
