"I just need more places to run."
-
"Well, I have some pretty fast ships."
-
"Those could be useful, if I could fly."
-
"Can't your AI fly?"
-
[i]Nope, have not been coded into something to fly planes.[/i] "Yeah, what he said."
-
"Well, what do you want from me then?"

Edited by Jäger: 1/15/2017 10:20:04 PM"I'll take the ship, just tell me the controls, I'll figure it out." [i]Rook, I'm picking up some heat signatures. Three guys, 133 meters away. I think they found us.[/i]
-
"Ok, the ship is right over there. It works almost like a video game, except faster and more explosive." [b]Fortis pointed to a larger than normal fighter, with a strange triangular node jutting out of the bottom.[/b]
-
"Sounds good." [i]I would run, now. One of them is equipped with a machine gun, another a rocket launcher, last with a shotgun. All heavily armored. They've spotted us. [/i] "Ok." [b]Rook starts running for the ship. Firing a few shots at the three men.[/b]
-
[b]Fortis lunges at one, using his wings' thrusters to gain extra speed, and throws him at the other two.[/b]
-
[b]The three quickly get up. One aiming his machine gun at Fortis. The other's aiming for Rook.[/b] [b][i]"We're not here to kill you. Only to kill the traitor."[/i][/b] [u][i]"Sir, I've got a clear shot."[/i][/u] [b][i]"Take it."[/i][/b]
-
"No one kills Rook without my consent. Why don't you three put your big boy pants on and talk about this like intelligent adults?"
-
[b]One of the soldiers takes a shot at Rook, hitting him in the leg. Rook falls to the ground.[/b] "Holy shit how are you THAT bad at shooting!" [b][i]"Listen, before Rook came to the dojo he commited a number of crimes. Illegal gun dealing to terrorists, theft of a drop ship, stealing and giving top secret info to our enemy, countless murders, illegally skipping mental health evaluations, and many counts of military property theft."[/i][/b]
-
"Words don't mean anything. If you have proof, then I will be glad to listen to you. But for the time being, you just shot a friend of mine and have given me no credible explanation for doing so. If you don't get that evidence, I will personally kill you."
-
[b]One of them hands you a file. Inside are photos of Rook caught commiting each crime listed.[/b] [b][i]"Now, does this clear our case?"[/i][/b]
-
"Well, this is interesting. Rook, why did you do this?"
-
"Hey man, nothing much to do in that shitty army, losing war anyway, did you all a favor, please, don't let them take me back." [b][i]"Don't listen to him. His mind is unstable. We'll make sure he makes it back in one piece."[/i][/b]
-
"So, you were bored and this led you to kill someone. Got it." [b]Fortis said to Rook. He then turned to the mercenaries.[/b] "I don't trust that you will do that. After all, you just shot the man."
-
"In all fairness the only people I killed were gun dealers." [b][i]"Listen, we're not going to kill him. We just want to make sure he pays for his crimes."[/i][/b] [b]A voice can be heard on one of the mercenaries comm channels out loud.[/b] [b][u]"Hey, have you captured Rook yet? I didn't hire you to waste time!"[/u][/b] [b]He quickly scrambles to turn off the comms.[/b]
-
"Well, why did you kill the gun dealers Rook?"
-
"He got pissed off at me for failing to deliver a stash of weapons. I drew first and shot him."
-
"Well, that sounds like it was in self defense. Is he being charged with manslaughter?" [b]Fortis asked the mercenaries.[/b]
-
[u][i]"Life in prison or the death sentance, depending on what the judge decides."[/i][/u]
-
"Well, is there any way he could be granted a pardon?"
-
"Fortis, they're not here for justice, they're only here to kill me and collect a paycheck. Please, help me, I can help you in return." [b]One of the mercenaries aims his rifle at Rook's head. Ready to silence him.[/b]
