| Kara couldn't help but blush. She always did have some sort of inferiority complex when it came to men and had lost her temper. She didn't make any eye contact with Spartan as she leaned foreward to retrieve her laptop.
"Sorry." She said softly as she leaned back in her seat. OOC: Dork. :p BIC: Kara looked over at Caine and smiled. "I think we could figure out some sort of way to combine the plans then. And in case you haven't noticed...there's only five of us....against them...we're all bait practically." She paused and looked around to the rest of the helicopter's passengers. "Two things in my opinion we need not to have destroyed. Above all, the hostages...then the subway...so we can't go blowing ourselves into the vacinity..." She sighed. Her mind was racing. None of them could all agree on the same plan. "Alright, look." She sat herself upright in her seat and glanced around again. "I still say that we need to get some one in there to disarm the enemy somehow. I can control the entire place with this thing." She says, giving her laptop case a tap. "However, suddenly turning the lights off on them may give them a bit of a scare and they'll start firing...If we can manage to get someone in there to disarm then, that's when I kill lights and start running the train. I'll have you all on my screen, so as long as you keep in contact with me, I can tell you exactly where to go. Otherwise, none of you will be able to see a damned thing. You load the hostages on the train and I'll take them from there." She paused, took a deep breath, held it, and then released it. "Then, I give you guys your lights back and let you do everything you need to, to handle them. I'll be in contact with Incognito, telling him the location of the hostages, and I'm sure they'll be taken care of by NYC's police force." Yet again she paused. She could feel her cheeks growing read suddenly, and didn't know why. Her plan wasn't much like what Caine and Zhao had come up with, but it was something at least. "And...if you must, then don't worry so much about keeping that subway intact. Just be careful." EDIT: OOC: I'll be away 'til Friday...so...can we keep this slow 'til then? **makes a puppydog face.** Pwease? (Last edited by Katana on 07-11-06 09:47 PM) |

Alrighty...I didn't go back and spell check anything. I kinda just went with the flow. So as far as grammar and spelling is concerned, I know there are mistakes.  I'm just concerned with style here. I don't show people my written work often, but I decided to swallow the anxiety and try it for once.
____________________________________ Chapter One "Anna. Become a girl." She read the words over and over again, before finally giving her cousin a strange look. Sitting on Anna's bed, Fallon was swinging her legs over the side and grinning. She took her shoulder length, chestnut brown hair and pulled it all over to the side, twirling it in her fingertips. Looking back at Anna, through glasses that were placed over her beautiful, dark brown eyes, Fallon giggled. "Well, you said yourself that you've decided you were done with the whole 'Tomboy' thing." Fallon shrugged as Anna stared back at her, bewildered. "But I didn't expect you to write that in the cover of a book Fall." Anna grumbled as she flipped through the pages of the paperback that was just given to her. "The Agony of Alice" by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Anna stared down at the cover and read the title over a few times and the illustration on the cover. The illustration showed a miserable looking girl, wearing a pair of jeans that were obviously too big for her. She was grateful for the book...well at least the intention that was behind it. Anna loved to read. It was, in fact, one of her favorite things to do. However, for some strange reason, this particular book didn't appeal to her. Even after reading the back of the book, the story just didn't catch her eye. She looked up to see what her cousin was doing, only to find her sprawled across her bed, staring up at the ceiling. With Fallon not paying any attention, Anna tossed the book aside and rose from her crouched position on the floor by her window, to her feet. She let out a loud groan as she reached her arms out and stretched and then began to survey her all too familiar surroundings. Her bedroom was painted white, and her rug was an odd purple-ish color. The rug itself has seen more years than Anna did. All four walls were covered in Star Wars paraphonalia as well as a few of her own drawings. The room was square, with two windows on the wall directly across from the door. At one corner, beside the window on the right, was an old nightstand that was now being used as a desk. Leaning up against the wall between the windows was a large mirror with a table and chair in front of it. This Anna had used as a vanity, with a towel draped over the table. Directly under the left window was an old wooden toy chest she's had since she was a baby. It was filled with all sorts of little trinkets from her early childhood that she still, to this day, held so dear to her. Against the wall, to the left of the toy chest, was her entertainment system. This consisted of a television set, a sterio, play station, nintendo-64, a game or two, a VCR, and doors that opened up. These doors lead to a compartment that contained her many movies, most of which were Disney. The head of Anna's large, queen-sized bed was against the wall to the right of the window on the right. It jetted out to the center of the room. To the left of the bed was a small brown lounge chair that was given to her as a baby from her mom-mom, and to the right of the bed was a small night table, with yet another towel draped over it. Suddenly, Anna broke free of her thoughts at the sound of a loud sigh of boredom. "Ann, are you excited about school starting up again next month?" "Huh?" Anna thought for a moment, glancing out her window and catching a glimpse of the sunset. She flopped down in the chair in front of her desk. Leaning her head up against the glass, she struggled to see more of the sky, but unfortunately, her cousin's house, next door, was blocking her view. "Anna, are you listening to me?!" Fallon was now sitting upright on the bed, legs still and arms crossed, sounding annoyed. "Oh....sorry." Was all Anna could mutter as she turned her attention back to her younger cousin. "I guess I'm excited." Anna replied. "I mean...I hate that school to begin with..." She paused and took a deep breath. "...then again, who knows?" Again, Anna rose to her feet, and this time with a shrug, rather than a stretch. "Its sixth grade...maybe something will happen this year?" Fallon coughed. "You say that every year Ann. I give you a day before you come home saying how much you hate it...and besides...you're getting Sister Marybeth, I hear she's a real witch." She said, waving her hand casually in the air. Anna cringed. The last nun she had was a bit of a nutcase...but by the end of the year she grew to love the woman. Sister Abigail ended up taking care of her and helping Anna through a very tough portion of her life at the time. Slowly, a sly grin crept across her lips as she spoke to Fallon. "I may be getting Sister Marybeth...but you know you fourth graders will be getting Sister Catherine." Fallon opened her mouth to retort, but ended up simply sticking her tongue out at Anna. "Fallon! Anna!" Anna turned, the shout had come from behind her. She glanced out the window to see her aunt calling up to them. Both girls lived next door to one another, and before that, when they were very small, right across the street from the other. Since all of the homes in the neighborhood were rowhomes, they weren't extremely big. However, the homes on Anna's block were stores many years ago, and therefore, bigger than the average rowhome of the area. Their back yard was also lager than the others on the block. However, that was because they had taken down the fence that separated Anna's backyard from Fallon's. Since they were all family, they decided to work on the yard, years ago, when Anna was about three years old. They took down the sheds to make the yard bigger. Then, they put a fence in halfway from the house to the wall that ended their yard. There, they had a large pool of five feet deep, thirteen feet by twenty-four feet. At least, that's what the pool was like up until last year. That year, Anna's grandparents thought they were going to be moving, so they took care of the pool first, practically cutting it in half, leaving half on Fallon's side and a mound of dirt on Anna's. Then, just before they were going to separate the rest of the yard again, they decided they weren't going to move. The area that didn't have the pool was all concrete, with a patio set directly in the middle. Fallon sprang up from the bed and scurried over to the window. She pushed her forehead up against it and lifted her pointer finger up, signaling to her mother that they would be down in a moment. "Anna, I think it's dinner time. You're still comming over, right?" Fallon paused. Her pretty little face screwed up in an expression that made her look as though she were deep in thought. "Um...I think my dad made ribs on the grill for dinner..." She looked over at Anna as though she were trying to judge whether Anna had been impressed or not by the announcement. Anna simply shrugged. "Shall we find out?" Anna asked, as she leaned over to the window and opened it up. A gust of heat blew in her face, but Anna didn't mind. She liked the heat actually. Both Anna and Fallon leaned up against the screen and inhailed through their noses. "Yup...I smell something on the grill at least..." Anna announced, pulling herself away from the window. Fallon took in another breath and stood back. "Yup...I'll ask my dad to put extra barbeque sauce in your's for you, okay?" With that, Fallon turned sharply and jogged out of Anna's bedroom, closing the door behind her. As Anna pulled her window down to close it, she could hear Fallon practically triping down the stairs. Shaking her head, Anna couldn't help but giggle. Fallon was an odd one. She could be extremely graceful for a girl her age, and at others, almost as awkward as Anna herself. As Anna turned to exit the room, she hada sudden change of mind. She had made it to her door, but once her hand touched the doorknob, she made a nintey degree turn toward her "vanity". She yanked back the brown folding chair and plopped down into it. As she sat there, Anna found herself staring at a girl with extremely dark brown eyes, nearly identical to Fallon's. Brown freckles dotted her nose, but the rest of her was pale, even though it was the beginning of August and she was outside much of the time. Her hair was long and poker straight. It was dark brown and fell to her waist. Being as she was only eleven years old, the girl did not wear any make-up. Anna stared back at herself with a look of disgust. She hated it. Everything about it. It depressed her to see it. Yet she never left the house without checking. Hoping, each time that there was a possibility of there being something better to look at. She lifted a piece of her hair in her fingers and stared at it, long and hard. Right now, it was dark brown. She never, not in her entire life, had one simple hair color. The Irish in her made it chestnut brown from time to time, while the Italian in her made it such a dark brown that it could easily be mistaken for black sometimes. Yet it wasn't like normal people, she thought. Usually, if someone's hair color changed, it was because the sun made it lighter in the summer and it should grow darker during the winter...if it changed at all that is...Yet Anna's hair. It seemed as though it was completely spontaneous. It could go chestnut during the winter and "black" during the summer for all she knew, but for now, it was simply just dark. The brown was still obvious, but it wouldn't be considered light either. Slowly, Anna stood from her seat and took a few steps back, enough that she could see herself entirely in the mirror. Though once white, her sneakers were plain and her white socks didn't add any flavor to them. Her shorts were a dark denim, while her T-shirt was plain and light blue. That expression of disgust began to resurface upon Anna's pale face. My legs are too fat...I have too much of a gut... Anna thought long and hard as she evaluated herself. Her thighs were too big she thought, but she assured herself that it was because of her sport and she had simply gained a lot of muscle. Her "gut" however, she could not think of any reason for it and hated herself for it. "Oh well..." She mumbled to herself as she turned and made her way to the yard, where her aunt, uncle, and cousins had been waiting for her. (Last edited by Katana on 07-11-06 07:07 PM) |

**sigh** You know, considering all the sisters that I have, I'm the only one who could be considered a "Carpender's Dream"....and since siblings jump on every chance they get to make fun of each other...There is a lot of "boob" talk in my house. Mainly because I have none and they do...so they tease me. |
And Leon? Dude...you're like my big brother...I don't ever wanna see you talk like that again. **cringes** Anywho...maybe it's because I am of the female species myself, but I don't see why there'd be a big deal about them. **shrugs**

Maybe it's because I really haven't seen "The Ring" but in my sincere opinion, I thought she had beautiful eyes. Grant it, it's the summer time. Therefore, I don't have the attention span to look at it for longer than a few minutes...but I dunno. I didn't read the text first because my computer loaded the image rather quickly and I saw them gorgeous eyes right away.
|
So anyway...I was looking and looking and like I dunno. Am I odd in saying that I got a positive vibe from the painting? *shrugs* Maybe that's just because I'm actually really into art actually, and I was enthralled by the awesomeness of the artwork? **shrugs**

But speaking of Samara, and I know this is a bit off topic, but Chaos Boy, you've seen my Samara Picys, haven't you? **giggles** Back on topic though...so I guess it's just one of those things that you have to see "The Ring" for? Cuz to tell you guys the truth, I'm easily scared and stuff...so it's not like I'm trying to act all macho or anything, saying that it isn't scary...**Thinks of "The Grudge" and then shudders** Fucking scary shit...**cough** Anywho...I dunno...but I really do like the painting. It doesn't seem blurry to me or anything. Maybe that's cuz my contacts are shot though? **shrugs** (restricted) | (restricted) | (restricted) |

Kara was nearly holding her breath, glancing between Zhao and Caine, after she made her remarks before. None of them answered however and it was Icav's question that pulled her from her trance.
|
"Well, we're all going to need to keep in contact. I'll be separated from you boys being as I need to get to a location in which I can control everything." She smiled as she made her statement, surveying the rest of her team. Maybe I can take their silence as some sort of compromise between the pair of them. She thought to herself as her eyes passed by Cain and Zhao in particular. "I'm still thinking that finding a way to get the hostages on one of the trains so I can take them to saftey would be a good idea...so I suggest we enter any way that we can without A) Going detected, and B)Causing any kind of rukus before taking care of the hostages." She crosses her right leg over her left as she made her comments and smothed out her skirt while waiting for responses.

So that takes care of that...and...maybe it's just a personal thing with me, but I think that the world underestimates the countries in Asia. I really do. I mean, you've heard in the news N. Korea being mentioned...so...the media is NOW mentioning something from Asia? **shrugs** Y'all can tell me if I'm wrong or not, just back up what you say with facts please, because I'm here to learn on this one, not chose sides in a debate.

Kara couldn't supress her giggle. "Will you guys stop harping on the negotiations. The word was used as a bit of sarcasm. I'm sure Zhao didn't mean for two people to try and communicate with them by offering them tea and biscuits while talking to them about the situation at hand."
|
She paused and let out a deep sigh. "Again, I repeat myself. What was meant by that was to basically scare them. Not to fire your weapons because it would startle them and someone innocent could be hurt. But to show them your guns. Let them know you boys mean business..." She then looked back over at Spartan and flashed hima grin. "I promise, I'll do my very best not to crash the train into you." She replies matter-of-factly.

Haha...Dorks. :p Shaddow, you have improved with like every thing you put up. **nods** |
I love it!
I've actually got Francine and Shine done...just don't have access to my scanner. 
Elara's will prolly be the next to be done, because she gave me a lot to go by to.
Sparda's may be next. As for everyone else, I am working on them. But I'm not liking them, so I keep crumbling the paper up, throwing it away, and starting over.
