Living In Shadow and Void

[Donald Morton]

"That was the plan all along, Kolov just didn't count on an ancient evil reawakening and spreading throuought the land... Did he ever tell you about Operation Forager?"

[Linda ~ Death's Symphony]

"S-So thats it?" I asked him. Tars rolled down my cheeks. "You just leave me after being loyal to you for so long. What did I ever do to you!" I said crying now. The cable of my micropohne extracts I then whip him on the back with the cable whip. I glared at him my face full of tears.

[Faust]

"Well...I guess I'll have a chocolate sunday, please." He smiled at Eliza and sat back down.

[Hope98]

"Linda, if you wish you can stay and watch quietly." I tell her. I try to be nice to people, unlike Peter who seems to have little patience.

"Yes, I was wondering about that. These movements seem abstract and I was not sure how they applied to fighting, or if when fighting someone, I would even remember such things, such as...the spacing between my feet or the angle of my hips."

My hip positions are interesting since it reminds me once again of ballet. It is unnatural feeling, but seems to be better for balance.

[Noe "Ghost" Carlson]

"Your fine doing what you are Cass. You have freedom to do as you like. If you need work than you can always do some checking up on the FRA. I understand their trying to build up their strength again."

[Hera]

"No, but I would love for you to tell me all about it, Donald."

I lean towards his desk, eager to hear about this operation.

[Linda ~ Death's Symphony]

I try to dry my tears. I walk over by Hope. "Your Hope right? i am sorry you have to see me like this. But I am sure you probably loved someone and they just throw you aside. Has that ever happened to you?" I asked her.

[Cassinda "The Dove"]

Cassinda nods and stands up. She straps the rest of her weapons onto her body and puts a jacket to cover them. She starts to walk past Noe but pauses.
Um... She hesitates. I... I would also like to ask another favor from you, por favor? I think I have some serious psychological(sp?) problems. I mean everything I been through in my life and losing everyone I have... I think I need help, you know?

[Peter "The Owl"]

Peter's hand snaps back and catches the whip. "You are not doing much to make me want to have you around, Linda."

Peter releases the cord whip and speaks to Hope, "That is why one practices. With time, it becomes second nature to you. Your body must work without your mind having to think about what it wants to do."

[Linda ~ Death's Symphony]

I glare at him. I let my glare down and start having a sad face. I sigh. I glance at Hope to see if she was to answer my question. *How dare he ignore me.* I thought

[Donald Morton]

I look around the room quickly, still unconvinced that it is bug free. "You do know that Kolov could have both of us electrocuted for this... Here." I slip her a photocopy of a document. At first it looks like nothing, a brief if not entirely correct history of the 20th Century from 1915 to 2000... However the date on the top of the page is 1913!

[Hope98]

"I have lost, but I have never been tossed aside. I am..not the kind of person that is easy to throw away." I reply to her as I continue to practice.

"Why....are you infatuated with Peter here?"

I look at Peter and try to concentrate on what I am doing. I think it will take a lot of practice to get these movements both precise and automatic.

[Noe "Ghost" Carlson]

"I see. Well, you'd probably be better off discussing those problems with one of the psycological staff than me but if you want to talk sometime, I'll be around."

[Linda ~ Death's Symphony]

I pull Hope aside. "Well, I "had feelings for him. I wanted to stick with him. But now he dioesn't need me naymore. Just thinks i am useless. He didn't used to be like this..." I said.

[Hera]

I look at the file in complete shock. I become pale as I read even the first few pages.

"All of this. All of this was a plan? But why?"

I know the answers though. So much can be gained from war and conflict....
