| Seifer watched as Holly went to lay down and quickly made his way towards the steps, where he could be heard clamboring about. Eventually, a loud crash could be heard, followed by a lapse of silence before the sound of his feet stirred once more. He quickly scampered back down, with a plethora of pillows and blankets in his arms and on his shoulders.
"Here, I used to keep supplies in case emergency visitors came and needed my help." He quickly distributed the pillows and blankets, leaving nothing for himself. But he cared naught. Since he mutilated his bedroom the day he left this, he was perfectly fine with being uncomfortable. He plopped down somewhat near to Holly, but far enough way so it wasn't uncomfortable for her, and closed his eyes. The gripping claws of fatigue had been clawing at the edge of his eyes, and soon he would be out of it. But for now, he was concious. "Enjoy your sleep, everybody. Tommorow's another day." |

| Holly was snapped out of her semi-conscious state when she heard the noise coming from the upstairs. She sat upright, taking her weight off of the couch that she was leaning on and saw Seifer coming down the stairs. She smiled and nodded a 'thank you' as she received a blanket and a pillow. She glanced about the room one more time to see if anyone else had fallen asleep yet. When her eyes fell upon Seifer, she raised an eyebrow. Without saying a word, she dropped the pillow he had just given her on his head. She flashed him a grin as she went back to her original spot. She fluffed up the blanket so that it could act as a pillow and within seconds, she was out cold. | |||

| Leon tossed in his sleep, images flashing across his mind. The horrific things he had read about Josiah for the brief period he had seemed to haunt him.
The tale of Josiah's betrayal appeared before him. Alden, slumped in the corner, his stomach and chest cut open, a pool of his own blood flowing around him. Jeremy, hanging on the wall, held up by several shards of shrapnel through his shoulder and leg. Eric's arm could be seen hanging limply from a pile of rubble. Josiah stood, his back turned, staring out towards the horizon through the large opening in the walls and ceiling. He slowly turned around and reached towards Leon. Leon shot up, his blanket falling onto the floor. He touched his forehead, and felt a cold sweat. He looked around, it was still late, and everyone else was asleep. He fell back onto the couch without reaching for the blanket. He eventually fell back asleep. Jeremy awoke to the sound of clanging in the kitchen. He stood and drowsily put on his jacket and approached the noise. As he stood in the doorway, he had to quickly step to the side to avoid being trampled by Eric, who was carrying a large pan filled with eggs in one hand, and a stack of dishes in the other. "Out of my way, hot food coming through." (Last edited by The Mighty Colossus on 01-26-07 08:14 PM) |

| Leon awoke abruptly almost an hour before there was another soul awake in this house. The dream still fresh in his mind, Alden had been beaten that badly, same with Jeremy and Eric? Surprising. Leon once thought them tougher, but now no more. Leon knew that his fight against Josiah had not gone too great either, but at least his defeat was in a one on one situation, three on one and losing that poorly was pathetic. slinging on a tight black t-shirt and walking out the door in his dark blue jeans, Leon was determined to not allow something like that to happen again. He pulled his sword from it's sheath, and detached the shard, hanging it around his neck. He pun it in his hand, the sword feeling light to him. At once he spotted a rather large tree. His bare feet patted across the grass, making little sound. The weather was cool and the air was brisk and satisfying. Taking the sword in both hands he swung once, striking the tree at eye level. He shook his head, and began assaulting the tree from every angle for a good hour. He was zoned in on his target, Josiah must die. The tree, having taken a severe beating looked rather pathetic, about to fall over, slice marks all across it and going deeply in. He removed the shard from his neck and attached it once more to his sword, the shard's properties kicking in, and he lightly swung at the base of the tree, separating the molecules and splitting the tree in two with almost no effort. Leon deactivated the shard and as the tree gingerly began to topple over, he sent a powerful jump kick into the front of it, knocking it backwards and sending it tumbling down a gentle incline.
Hair and clothing covered in sweat, he returned to the house. He pulled his shirt off as he entered, being able to stay warm in such a place, his muscular chest and jeggeed scarring showing. Many other scars were visible, located almost sporadically placed each having a different tale. "Holly, you want to be trained now, or you wanna sleep forever." |

| Seifer slowly opened his eyes, looking around at the room. Activity was beginning once more, and it seemed as though the time to rest was over. He felt cured, the wounds in his chest gone. He slowly rose up and stood in between Leon and the sleeping Holly.
"Leon..." Seifer yawned as his hand ran through the scruffy hair atop his head, "chill out. Breakfast, then chores, then training. Holly, later in the day be sure to buy steak and potatoes. I'll make my specialty for dinner tonight." |

| Holly slowly opened her eyes. The first thing she heard was Leon's voice. It took a few moments, but once her dark blue eyes managed to focus themselves, they widened slightly. All those scars... she thought for a moment before her memory kicked in. She had seen some of them before just after Leon's fight with Josiah.
"Merh..." She grumbled as she tried getting to her feet. That didn't work out so well. Somehow, during the course of the night, Holly had managed to entangle herself in the blanket and was now tripping over it as she tried to get up. She looked up at Leon and smiled sheepishly, as she removed the blanket from her and stood up. Almost everyone else had begun to stir, if not already awake. She was brushing the wrinkles out of her clothes when she realized that she had fallen asleep with her boots on. Not like I haven't done that before... she thought to herself as she now moved on to combing through her long, straight black hair with her fingers. She then glanced over at Seifer as he spoke and nodded. "Steak and potatoes...got it." She announced as she caught sight of Eric and walked over to him. "Let me help with that." She says, as she takes the plates off of him, holding then with both hands. "What are we going to do about Henry, anyway?" |

| "And don't forget to get some rice and beans," Eric said as he scooped large portions or eggs onto the plates, "the perfect staple of a military diet. A perfect blend of carbs and protein to keep you running at maximum efficiency."
He finished serving the eggs and took the pan into the kitchen. "And maybe we should wait for Henry to wake up before we talk about him as if he aint here?" |

| "A perfect blend of carbs and protein to keep you running at maximum efficiency." Holly mouthed those words along with Eric, as he spoke them. She rolled her eyes and tilted her head so that she was looking up at him.
"Same old shit I been hearin for years..." she says, adding almost a southern drawl to her accent. "Anyway...Henry has been out cold for quite some time now. It's not like I was talking about him in a bad way..." Her voice trailed off. She didn't want to admit that his well-being was on the top of her mind. "Steak...potatoes...rice...beans...where exactly am I going anyway? And how do we get all of this stuff?" |

| Brad woke up, and his situation crashed onto him. No longer E'shyum, but at least he was able to eat eggs. Eggs were good, they tasted great with a bit of salt, and were good when trying to fill yourself up.
He stood up, now fully awake. His hair was a mess, but that was the least of his worries right now. Now he had to help work, eat eggs, and maybe later, duel with Leon or Seifer. He pulled his loaded gun out from under his pillow, and returned it to his holster. "According to Seifer," Brad answered Holly, "if we just work on his house the depot will just give it to us. It doesn't benefit them in the least, but it's work, so they'll be fine with it." |

| She walked over to the coffee table and set the plates down.
"So, we work on the house, then I make my run? Or will I be able to do it right after breakfast, and then work on the house?" She shrugged as she ran her hands over her hair once more, making sure she had flattened all of the tangles out of it. Luckily for her, since her hair was so straight, Holly really didn't need to brush it all the time. |

| Seifer was now stretching slightly as he was listening to everyone talk.
"Holly, you're not helping with the house. Your only job is to get the supplies. You can go get them sometime after breakfast. Go to the depot, meet everyone, find Old Derrick, and tell him everything that's happened. Then tell him where we are and that we need supplies. Everyone else, get ready then we're working on the house." |

| Holly tilted her head to the side as she listened to Seifer. She nodded when he finished speaking.
"Well, if there is still work to be done by the time I get back, then I will help you boys with that." She says, standing up straight and placing her hands on her hips. "That way we can get all of this done with as quickly as possible and spend the rest of the time resting or training." (Last edited by Katana on 01-31-07 03:42 AM) |

| Eric took the pan and spatula from Holly.
"You should probably get going soon, so we can get done with our work. I'm gonna go clean up the kitchen from breakfast." Jeremy picked up a plate and took a few bites, slowly mulling them around. He put the plate back down, he wasn't in the mood to eat. "I'll eat later." He walked towards the basement and grabbed his utility tool. "I'm going to get started on fixing the circuit breaker." He stopped next to Holly and gave her a small black device. "Here's my sat phone. Call Eric's if you get into any trouble." |

| "Right." She says, graciously accepting the phone. She picked up one of the plates and took a few bites. She then made her way to the kitchen, taking bites here and there until she got to the sink, where she set her nearly finished plate of eggs.
She then returned to the livingroom. "Thanks Eric." Once more, she straightenes everything out. She ran a finger through her hair and twisted her shirt around to the way it was supposed to fit. She looked up at Seifer. "Old Derrick. Explain everything...wherabouts...supplies. Got it." She places her hands to the side of her forehead and casually gives him something resembling a salute. "If anything happens, you boys better get a hold of me too, okay?" She says, as she backs into the screen door to open it and heads out. The last sound that could be heard from her was the sound of her boots clicking on the wooden porch. Then it was silent. |

| Holly began to walk down the small dirt road leading from Seifer's cabin. She reached a point where the small path merged with a larger road, although it didn't seem to lead anywhere up hill. She turned right and started down the road. As she headed down the road more paths could be seen connecting to it. The farther downhill she got the wider the road was, until it could fit one, and then two cars. As she neared the foothills, she even encountered some foot, and bicycle traffic.
She entered the outskirts of the town, the traffic increased. The town was full of buildings, some wooden cabins, the rest semi-modern buildings with the architecture of the 70's and 80's. She noticed out of the corner of her eye, a small shack with a large tree firmly embedded in the side. There was a group of children huddled around it, some sitting on top, looking up the track in the dirt that it had followed, leading up towards Seifer's cabin. "I hear the place is haunted." She overheard one of the children tell the others. "Yeah, right. That's just an old wives tale." "No, it's true. Last night I saw lights up there. And there were shapes moving around up there." "Just like you said your dad has a shard." "He does have a shard. He keeps it locked in his night-stand drawer." "Then why don't you bring it..." The voices trailed off as Holly continued on to look for Old Derrick. ((That's not supposed to happen yet :-P)) (Last edited by The Mighty Colossus on 02-02-07 01:17 AM) |

(OOC: I guess I'm taking over Isha now.  This charrie gets around! XD)
Isha blinked a few times as the man helped her up. Her lips parted as though she wanted to speak, but no words came out. Her eyes scanned the area surrounding her for a moment, before she locked eyes with the strange man. "I'm waiting for that explanation." (OOC Again: Tell us about the freaking origin!!! XD) ---------------------------------- Holly placed a hand to her mouth and giggled as she passed the children. "Haunted?" She says softly to herself. Hmmm...maybe I should tell them about this...they mentioned having a shard... She sighed as she continued through the town, running her fingers through her long, straight black hair. |

| "Come, follow me, I will answer all of your questions."
The Watcher guided Isha out of the room and into a long stone hallway. He began to walk beside her. "Much has happened since your... departure. While for you it may seem like a few mere hours, on Earth nearly an entire day has passed." As they walked they passed massive looming wooden doors. Were they in some sort of castle? "Edgar is with the Marinae, mourning your death, and your friend Leon is with a considerably larger group, hiding. And once again, Josiah has evaded me, with Alden in tow." They reached a door at the end of the hall, which The Watcher held open for Isha. "You see, I have been watching your battles carefully. Your, war of the shards." Holly noticed that most of the commotion in the town had stopped, and everyone seemed to be looking at her with what could only be interpreted as hostility. |

| Isha gazed at their surroundings in awe. Everything had a strange feeling to it. She glanced at the man out of the corner of her eye. She was a bit hesitant to trust him, but at the moment, she had no other choice.
"I don't understand...Edgar is safe then, I presume...but what is going to happen? When can I go back to Edgar?" -------------------------------------- As Holly walked through the town, she couldn't help but get the feeling that she was not welcome. With her head lowered, and a blush spread across her cheeks, she continued walking. However, after a few moments, she began to feel lost. She stopped and looked around. She spotted a street vendor just feet away from her and decided that he was best to ask. If he sells stuff, then he should be used to people... she thought as she strolled on over to him. "Um...excuse me sir." She says softly. "I am here looking for a man called Old Derrick...it is imperitive that I find him as soon as possible...so if you could please..." She sighed. She didn't realize how awkward this little adventure would be. |

| "Yes, Edgar is perfectly safe. In fact, I can show him to you."
The Watcher sat down at a large bank of computers. The screen was filled with interconnecting symbols that seemed, oddly familiar. He entered a few keystrokes and a map appeared on the screen, with the same symbols going down the left side. The screen zoomed in and showed Edgar, sitting on the edge of his bed. The vendor turned towards Holly. "He left, girlie. And maybe you should take his cue and run along. Your kind aren't welcome here." |

| Isha let out a long sigh of relief. Though he appeared to be distraught, he wasn't physically harmed.
"So...what now?" -------------------------------------------- Holly took a few small steps back and looked up at the vendor. "Please...sir. I mean no harm. But...where did he run off to?" |
