The medbay of the Arrowhead was deserted as usual. Alpha was usually unable to convince the rest of the Arrowhead to come and have their health checked
This time, that's what she wanted: solitude
The singular surgery bay was bristling with a thousand and one arms and machines, programmed and waiting.
They seemed to invite her into their embrace, and she felt it'd be damn impolite to say no.
So, she disrobed and laid on the bed.
A light trill of fear arced through her body as the machine activated....but even as the plexiglass windows of the surgery bay automatically dimmed to give her privacy, alarms rang out as power dropped in the ship's reactors. The surgery was so draining the reactors actually dropped in their output.....

[i]Takatai, Dojoville[/i]
A girl walked down the main Street, looking around. Her blonde hair seemed to cover her shoulders, which were themselves covered by a purple hoodie. Her blue jeans and boots were worn, but comfy-looking. Her left eye was missing, but that did little to detract from the effect her look had, with sharp blue eyes.
She sighed, smiling. It was a new lease on life ....

"I...I guess there's no reason not to." Silver shrugged. [spoiler]'aight. get the paint[/spoiler]

*Sapphire was walking down the opposite direction. Something about the girl caught her eye, and believe it or not it was the girl’s own single familiar blue eye. She stopped in her tracks and tilted her head, sniffing the air.*
-
"good evening Sapphire" The girl said, smiling. "How are you?" She said
-
*She just stared for a few seconds.* [u]How do you know my name... A-Are you...[/u] *She bent down and began to sniff her. Sure, it was awkward, but Sapphire didn’t seem to care. Her eyes suddenly widened and she pulled her head away quickly, seemingly in a mixture of surprise, confusion, and horror.* [u]ALPHA?! WHAT THE F@&$ HAPPENED TO YOU?!?!?![/u] *She didn’t seem to care whether the language turned heads or not, probably because she was too focused on what happened and if it might have been contagious.*
-
"Sapphire! Calm down!" She said, sighing "Yes, it's me. I'm guessing you noticed something different?"
-
[u]EVERYTHING IS DIFFERENT! YOU’VE BEEN TURNED INTO A HUMAN![/u] *Soon her expression turned to one of sympathy. Alpha hadn’t told her anything about her past, so as far as Sapphire knew she wasn’t supposed to look like this.* [u]Who did this to you? Where are they? What kind of weapons do they have? Is it magic or technology? Is it reversible?[/u]
-
"I USED to be human, thank you" She replied, slightly annoyed

The panic was gone and her tone had switched to one of respect and guilt, like that of someone who had just vilified a friend and then turned around to find said friend standing behind them.* [u]Y-You were? I didn’t know... This... It’s probably important to you isn’t it? Very important... Sorry for freaking out...[/u] *She was silent for a couple of seconds.* [u]So... Would you like to talk? Not in the middle of the sidewalk of course... And also...[/u] *She gave Alpha a hug before pulling away again.* [u]That’s for the hearing...[/u]
-
"It's nothing." She said shortly "I'm fine, we don't need to talk"
-
[u]I want to get to know my friend better...[/u] *She crosses her arms stubbornly as she said this and looked down at the new,(or maybe [i]old[/i] is a better term for it,) Alpha.* [u]I’ll tell you some about myself too, but after a life change like this I don’t think most friends just walk away immediately after seeing it.[/u]
-
"whatever floats your boat" She said as she sighed "Whatcha wanna talk about?"

Edited by Skatch142: 1/13/2018 7:37:16 PM[u]Well... I’m changing... Mentally... It started a long time ago but my girlfriend, Silver has caused it to happen more.[/u] *She was silent for a couple seconds, seemingly made uncomfortable by this.* [u]It’s not exactly bad... But could we go somewhere else to sit and talk?[/u]
