Python watches as a ship drops off the ammunition he had purchased recently. He picks one up and moves it to the armory. He picks up the next one....
[spoiler]Intro time....[/spoiler]
English
-
[b]A shotgun is pointed out of the crate into his face.[/b]
-
He nods as if he saw this coming. Python sets the crate down and grabs the barrel of the shotgun. He pushes it to the other side of the crate, knocking the top off as he pulls his pistol and aims down into the crate.
-
[b]Sola attempts to jump out of the way as soon as the top comes off, but trips with her feet still inside of the crate.[/b] "Ow..."
-
"You gonna try something?" His deep voice boomed throughout the hangar. Soldiers had looked up and started walking over. Python waived them off and they returned to their duties.
-
"I w-was...."
-
"Are you going to now?" He pulls the shotgun from her grip and sets it next to him, turning on the safety.
-
[b]She whimpers, feeling scared and hopeless.[/b] "N-N-No...."
-
He holsters his pistol and picks up the shotgun. He offers her his hand. "Come on out, then."
-
[b]She grabs his hand, and looks around.[/b]
-
He helps her out of the ammo crate and walks with her in no particular direction. He holds her shotgun in his left hand, she's on his right side. "What's your name?"
-
"S-S-Sola..." [b]She looks away from him.[/b]
-
"Sola, I'm Python." He notices her look away. "Are you alright?"
-
[b]She shakes nervously [/b] "I-I'm fine..."
-
"What? Are you nervous or scared or something?"
-
"I'm fine.....I'm fine..."
-
"Alright. Well, not much we can do with you besides give you food, shelter and people to hang out with. You're on the team if you want." He offers her the shotgun.
-
"Team? What? Where am I exactly?" [b]She looks around nervously.[/b]
-
"You're on a ship called the Axion. We're a mercenary team."
-
[b]She stares for a few seconds, then grabs the rusty old shotgun.[/b] "I really don't have a choice do I...?"
-
"Well, we could put you in an escape pod and shoot you down to Manalice but, I don't think you'll last a week down there. It's cold, snowy, no hunting, no farming." He nods. "So, yeah you're kinda stuck here."
-
"What exactly does your team do...?"
-
"We take missions and get cash, right now we're kinda on a personal mission. Rescuing a friend and avenging another."
-
[b]The shotgun splits in half.[/b] "I'm not exactly sure if I'm that useful..."
-
He eyes the shotgun as it splits in half. "Trust me, we'll find a used for you. Until then, find an empty room with a bed and and take it."
