[glow=red,2,300]the reason is that these reavers are not identical to those in serenity, they just have the same name. [/glow] I never said they were Identical but its contradicting the story.

Well everything upto the point when the door is broke down says they ravers don't use guns and that reavers were locked outside the citidel. Now when ceri says that the people are reavers by the door holding guns contradicts whats happened before.

Well, the Reavers don't have to use guns, we can modify that part. And I believe the Reavers are still locked outside...these ones were inside the whole time. Stanic, can you go back and change the fact that the Reavers have guns to swords or whatever it is that they use please? Then maybe we can get on with the role-play...

Riiiiighty I've modified the post above so Flak is shot in the shoulder, not the chest. Take it away, Stanic, with the magically revived Flak who never died at all...... hehehe

The problem I have is that I would have said reavers if thats where I was hoping for the story to go that way. I said people, reavers are not people.

The twins looked doomed, Flak was still firing with his good arm but there were too many reavers. Flak's gun clicked empty and a nearby reaver charged at them, sword raised high. "This is it." he said painfully. suddenly the reaver collapsed down dead, a knife through his back. Flak and Captain looked up to see Rico and Sendae carving their way through the horde, Rico crouched down and removed his blade from the reaver's spine, he nodded to the twins. "COME ON GUYS. WE GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE, NOW!!" shouted Julius from the entrance, Captain helped Flak to his feet and put his arm around her shoulders. "RICO, SENDAE, GRAB AHELOS SO WE CAN GO!!" shouted Feln. Rico sheathed his swords, scooped up Ahelos and ran towards the which was closing. They made it under the door, Flak pulled a large Solidox bomb from his back pocket lit the fuse and threw it under the door as it closed. there was a huge explosion which shook the door, the group relaxed until they heard scratching and screeching from behind the weakened door, they scurried towards the horde chamber. just as they reached the top os the large staircase the door finally gave way releasing the (slightly charred) remaining reavers, including the leader.

I like to confuse Captain, Flak, Ahelos, Julius, Feln, Rico and Sendae ran as fast as they could down the corridor, around the corner, up the stairs. Julius glanced behind: several running, shouting figures were closing in behind them. As the others ran on he pulled out his gun again, shooting down the nearest two. The others leapt over the dead and carried on running. "There has to be an exit somewhere," Flak groaned, one hand clamped firmly over his injured shoulder. "There's a door up ahead," Rico shouted. "Come on!" Sendae threw her whole weight on the door, throwing it open; the five of them ran through and Sendae followed; Julius dived through the doorway as Sendae slammed it shut. She and Rico set about barricading it. Captain turned her attention to her injured brother and Sendae turned to Ahelos. "Are you okay?" Not too confused, are you, Ahelos?

"I'll live." said Flak clearly in pain "..although i think you're the one we should be worried about." he pointed to the teeth marks on Captain's neck. "Hey don't worry about that." Captain replied smiling "There's something i have to say, it's about Ahelos." Flak said slowly Captain gave him a quizzical look "..When she jumped at you, i didn't mean to shoot her in the arm. I was aiming for her head." Captain looked at him in shock "..you're my sister, my only family were would i be if you got killed."
Meanwile on the other side of the corridor Sendae was talking to Ahelos.
"Ahelos," Asked Sendae "..Why did you attack Captain like that?" "I...I have no idea." Ahelos replied confused "..It just kind of.. happened." Sendae looked at Ahelos in a way that suggested she didn't want to get to close, for fear of deja vu. "Okay we gotta go." said Julius eventually ".. let's get back to the ship. the group stood up and trudged on, to the plane.

Captain couldn't stop thinking about what Flak had said. I was aiming for her head. She loved her brother more than anything else in the world, and she understood that he would want to protect her. But the thought of him killing Ahelos was scary. Flak may have been a fighter but he wasn't bloodthirsty. I was aiming for her head. Why had Ahelos attacked her like that? Not with weapons, not even with hands...With teeth. I was aiming for her head. Was Ahelos was blood drinker? She had told Captain, when they'd first met, that she couldn't remember anything about her past. Maybe she was a Vampire, or part Vampire. I was aiming for her head. Captain shook her head sharply, trying to drive out the thoughts. Ahelos was walking some distance ahead, avoiding her eyes. Captain decided not to bring it up until they were on the ship, safe away. Still, the memory remained. I didn't mean to shoot her in the arm. I was aiming for her head.

They ran down the corridor. Ahelos was covering the rear and constantly looking behind her. A group of reavers came charging down the corridor. Ahelos stopped. Sendae Looked behind her and spotted Ahelos standing still infront of three reavers. "Ahelos! What are you doing?" She screamed. A reaver charged at her, she still stood still. Sendae stared in horror, then Ahelos moved.
Ahelos swung her foot into the reavers stomach, it crouched down where Ahelos quickly kicked it over and then lept on its chest and punched its face in. Julius came running upto Sendae and then looked at Ahelos and was shocked. The reavers face was now a bloody mess, she stopped and looked up, both of the reavers were now running at her, one with her sword. She stood. "Ahelos, stop being a hero!" Julius shouted. Ahelos wasn't listening.
The reaver with out the sword reached her first. It lept at her going for Ahelos's neck. Ahelos grabbed its head and moved it out of the way and bit its neck. The reaver tried to get out of her grip but she was getting stronger the longer she drank its blood. Julius and Sendae had never seen anything like it before. Ahelos stopped and threw the almost dead reaver onto the sword the other one was carrying. The reaver dropped the sword and tried to fight. She grabbed its and smashed is head on the wall. Blood and brains now painted the wall. She stood still barely out of breath and walked over to her sword and picked it up and walked over the Julius and Sendae who were still stunned. "Aren't we leaving?" Ahelos asked, oblivious to how amazed they were at what she just did.

Around the corner the others were waiting for them. Captain couldn't help but look away when Ahelos reappeared, blood trickling from her mouth. She felt very sick by this time, whether from bloodloss or the mere thought of what was going on, she didn't know. "Come on, sis..." Flak tugged on her arm gently. "You okay? You look pale." "I'll be fine." "We need to get to the ship, now," Flak said firmly to the others. "There should be an exit somewhere round here," Sendae said. Sure enough, when they rounded the corner, they found themselves facing a great glass window. The drop from here to the ground was at least fifteen feet. From here they could see the ship. "Great," Rico said. "What's the plan?"

Post by Aulius on Mar 15, 2006 19:14:52 GMT
"The plan is..." Captain thought for a moment "I don't have a plan" "Great" Julius moaned. More reavers appeared behind them. Ahelos went to deal with them on her own while everyone tried to think of a way to get out. Ahelos no armed with her sword was having the best time of her life with it.
"Do we still have any explosives?" Captain asked "I have one left...what do you intend to do?" Sendae asked "Well if we blow up the floor near the window we can jump onto the wall thats exposed making it less of a leap but it would still be quite far. I was hoping for some more explosives" Feln being oddly quiet spoke up "We can't get out this way" "Do you know a way out?" "Yes I do actually" Everyones except for Ahelos's head turned and looked at Feln. "I used to live here for a month, If you hadn't forgotten I was running around before the reavers showed up, I'm just over forty and the reavers have been around for twentyfive years. When I came here it was just before the reavers appeared and my family had been invited to stay here by one of my fathers friends. It was boring here so I looked around, theres quite a few secret passage ways" "Why didn't you tell us this? and don't say we never asked!" Rico said "Hey that does explain your slightly posh accent though" "Well I want to live so follow me for a way out" Feln said and walked away "Ahelos" She shouted back "Stop poking the reavers with that and follow us now or else we will leave with out you!" She continued walking and Ahelos soon appeared with most of her clothing covered in blood.

"Hungry were you." said Flak so only Ahelos could here, she scowled at him and then barred her teeth, Flak began moving slightly quicker. Captain still couldn't look Ahelos in the eye, there were so many thoughts running through her head. what if Flak had shot Ahelos in the head? What if he hadn't shot at all? Would she still be here? she began to feel dizzy and disorientated, everything slowly began to turn black. she was concious just long enough to feel her legs give way as she collapsed to the floor.

Flak knelt down next to Captain and shook her. Captain didn't stir. Ahelos moved over to captain and pushed Flak over supprisingly hard but to her very gently. Flak fumbled for his gun and pointed it at Ahelos. Ahelos looked at him in the eye, his hand shaked a little. "Put your gun away, I've satisfied my urge with reaver blood" Ahelos said sternly. Flak didn't move. Ahelos picked up captain and put her over her shoulder. "Get up" Flak stood and continued to follow Feln.
They reached a door. It was old and looked like it was about to fall off. It had no handle and no visable means to open it. Feln stood in front of it then moved to one side and Julius tried to kick it in. Instead of the door falling over, Julius cried in pain and held his foot. "I didn't tell you to kick it in" Feln said, she moved over next to the door and pushed the three different bricks. The door moved back and slid sideways. It became obvious why it hurt Julius. The door had a foot thick steel door behind the wooden one. Feln walked in.

Flak, Rico and Sendae followed Feln in. It was a tunnel, leading, apparently, under the ground where their ship was. Feln explained as they started into the tunnel: "It leads into the woods behind where the plane is parked. We'll be able to come out there and get onto the ship without being seen." Flak was following behind Ahelos, keeping his eye on Captain at all times. Her face was pale, her forehead burning; occasionally she stirred and moaned, but her eyes remained closed. Flak remembered Captain falling ill like this as a child, and didn't bear to think that she could be sick again. The tunnel seemed to stretch forever with no sign of an exit. Sendae and Rico, life-long friends of the twins, both looked worried as well. For Flak, they couldn't get back to the plane fast enough.

The group followed Feln silently with the occasional groan from Flak because of his injurey. Feln stopped and looked around. The tunnel split in two. She thought for a moment. "This way" The continued to follow her down a tunnel and in the distance they could see sun light. They started to run down the tunnel, and out they came into the sunlight and were blinded for a moment. Thier eyes started to adjust to the light, they could see the planes where they had left them still in the same state. "Quick get the planes started" Shouted Rico as he ran to his fighter. Sendae ran to her fighter while everyone else ran to Felns baby.
Feln got to the cockpit first and was already starting the engines. She put on her headset. "Rico, Sendae fire what weapons you have at the citidel while we bomb it!" "Roger that" they replied.
Rico was taxing down the runway with Sendae not to far behind. Feln got the engines started and quickly positioned the plane. A group of reavers had massed infront of them. "As if that will stop us!" The plane lurched forward as Feln put the throttle right forward. The reavers were either missed, killed or knocked over. They were airbourne.
From the window next to her, Ahelos could see one of the fighters fire its missiles at the centre of the citidel. Feln brought the plane in line with the citidel. "Ahelos, get down and drop the bombs!" Feln shouted "But I don't know how!" "It's simple look down the scope and when the X is on the citidel press the button. Don't worry about the doors I've opened them!" Ahelos opened the hatch by her feet and climbed down a short ladder. She layed down and looked through her scope and looking up occasionally to check how far they were away. The citidel was close. She flicked open the button cover and looked down. The X was dead on centre and she quickly dropped the bombs. She heard them whistle down. "Bombs dropped!" She shouted down the microphone of a nearby headset. "Excellent get back up here" Julius replied. Ahelos climbed back up. They heard several explosions and they sighed in relief. "Where to now?" Rico asked over the radio "Back to Tote. Captain and Flak need medical attention. We need new weapons and another load of bombs" Feln said. Flak sat there and wondered what Monroe would have to say about their findings.

Post by Ceri on Mar 16, 2006 21:41:34 GMT
Ahelos and Flak made their way to the small medical bay on the plane, which consisted of two camp beds and a first aid box. Ahelos laid Captain on one of the camp beds and Flak sat on the other, letting Sendae bind his wound without paying much attention. "What's wrong with Captain?" Rico asked nervously. "I don't know," Ahelos said, one hand on her arm. Flak shook Sendae's hand away. "You get away from her," he spat at Ahelos. Ahelos obediently stood up and backed away as Flak knelt at his sister's side. "What did you do to her?" he demanded, touching Captain's burning forehead. "I...I don't..." Ahelos didn't know what to say. She didn't know what was wrong with Captain, but it was more than likely related to her actions. "Has this ever happened before?" Sendae asked, trying to get close enough to Flak to bind his arm again. "Not since she was a kid...and that was natural...nothing like this..." Flak was beginning to panic. Captain could have been killed out there--both of them could have been--and it didn't bear thinking about if anything happened to them now. He turned to Ahelos. "What can we do?" he demanded. "I don't..." Ahelos tried to compose herself. "There's something I think I could do..." "What? Will it help her?" "Probably," Ahelos said nervously. "Then for God's sake, do it," Flak said, standing up. Ahelos was dimly aware of how much taller he was than her. "Now!" he cried. "O-Okay," she stammered. "Leave me with her. I'll give it a go. Leave me." Flak started to protest but Rico and Sendae took his arms and led him out of the room back to Julius and Feln. Ahelos waited till they were gone before turning back to Captain. She had just began to stir, her eyes flickering. "Captain?...Kerry? Can you hear me?" Captain blinked vaguely, her eyes glazed. "Flak...?" "It's me, Ahelos. Captain, I think I can help you." Captain's eyes opened slowly as Ahelos reached for her knife. She hesitated, looking Captain in the eyes. "Do you trust me?" Captain's mind was working slowly and she couldnt work out what was going on. This last sentence slowly sank in. "Yes." Ahelos nodded. She raised the knife and drew the blade across the palm of her hand. Blood splashed onto the blade immediatly. Ahelos's plan was risky and not based on anything strongly. There was a theory that one bitten by a blooddrinker could be restored by the blood of the biter...it was worth a try, if only for the sake of Flak. "Open your mouth, Captain." Captain did as she was told, and Ahelos dripped her own blood between her lips. Captain coughed gently, barely aware of herself. Ahelos's hands were shaking as she let the blood drip, before bringing her hand back and tearing a strip of her green dress free to tie around her hand. Captain shook her head gently, her eyes looking around nervously, more aware than before. "How do you feel, Captain?" Captain hesitate. "...Okay," she said quietly at length. Ahelos smiled nervously. "Rest now," she said. "I'll be back later." Captain's eyes had already drifted closed.

Hours had passed and everyone was on edge. They had barely anything to defend themselves with if any reaver had hid on board.
Ahelos was sitting in the bombadier compartment. It was small and cramped with enough room for two people to sit in, and one person to lie down in. The hatch opened and Julius climbed down and struggled to sit down. He had to much muscle, or so he claimed.
"You alright?" He asked "I...I don't know" Ahelos stammered "As long as Captain survives then you can survive with us, if she doesn't Flak may try to kill you...again" he said delicatly "What do you mean again?" "He wasn't aiming for your shoulder" "If he had killed me, there may not have been a chance of Captain not becoming a blood sucker like me!" "Well, don't beat yourself up about it. We're almost back to Tote. Monroe won't be that pleased about losing most of our weapons" Ahelos had forgotten completely about Monroe. Hopefully he would let them stay on Tote for awhile. Ahelos had enough of reavers for now. "Well, just remember to watch your back sometimes" With that he crawled over to the ladder and through the hatch.
Ahelos rolled onto her belly and watched the world go by.

Flak was sitting behind the pilot's chair, drumming his fingers irritably on the floor, his gun resting on his knees. Julius came back and sat down beside him. "Well?" Flak said. "What's the vampire done to my sister?" "There's no proof that Ahelos is a vampire," Julius said thoughtfully. "She could be any kind of blooddrinker." "I don't care what she is," snapped Flak. "Is Captain okay?" "Seems to be. She's unconscious still but she looks better than before." Flak sat back again, still worried. "How long will it be before we get back?" "Not long. You'll probably have to address Monroe if Captain isn't well enough." Flak had forgotten about Monroe as well. "He may not be pleased with the outcome of this trip." "What about it? We found the source and destroyed it. Well, we tried to, anyway." "Well, we lost rather a lot of weaponry. Ahelos could potentially be our enemy--you know Monroe's views on these things. And Captain could be more badly injured than we know. Could be," he added quickly as Flak sat up. "She'll be fine, I'll bet. But Monroe may not be happy, that's all I'm saying." Flak glanced out of the window where Rico and Sendae was flying alongside. The only one he'd loved as much as Captain was Sendae. A vision flashed into his eyes, of their plane crashing in flames; he shook his head quickly to loose it. He was being paranoid. If anything happened to Sendae he'd never forgive himself.

The vision wouldn't leave him, he couldn't make it go away. then it switched between that and Captain trying to bite his neck. Was he going insane? was he about to lose it? all these thoughts made no sense to him. Finally he relaxed slightly and pulled a joint from his pocket. He placed it between his lips and lit it. Julius turned around and saw him light it. "Hey Flak, what is that?!" he asked worridely. as Flak exhaled the smoke he looked at Julius and said. "Freedom." "Don't be funny with me" said Julius knocking the joint out of Flak's hand. Flak watched it land then turned to Julius. "You mother**..." He said and punched Julius in the face.

"Flak!" Feln cried. "What was that about?" Flak barely heard: he was staring at Julius, who was staring back, one hand held against his cheek where Flak had struck him. For a moment they held eye contact, neither of them speaking. Feln watched them nervously. Then Flak turned on his heels and strode away from Julius. Julius didn't move for a moment, then returned to his seat, rubbing his face, staring after Flak. Flak passed where Ahelos was crouched and entered the medical bay again, dropping to his knees at Captain's side again. He sat there in silence beside his unconscious sister, for how long he didn't know, the visions repeatedly flashing in front of his eyes.

oh dear Chris! While Ahelos was staring down at the world below her she started to feel very sleepy. After a while she fell asleep... "I'm sorry Sir, but she's going to die" said a voice. "I can't loose Ahelos, not after i've only just found her again. Isn't there anything you can do?" said a pain stricken voice that she reconised. "There is one thing, but she must never be allowed back here, your father wouldn't let it. We would have to erase her memory of everything then leave her somewhere where the humans can find her..." said the first voice again "But...i love her...i can't loose her" there was a long silence "okay" the man said again
Suddenly Ahelos was woken by a sudden jolt of the aircraft landing. Whose voice was that? Was that a flash from the...past?
