Re: Cruel Times

Sauda: "So what's the plan for today?" I asked whoever was actually listening.

[OpenTheDoor]

Violet: "I ain't in charge..." I shrugged.

[Ziva :)]

"Training starts in about an hour,"

[OpenTheDoor]

Violet: "Does that include me? Because if not all I'm doing is wandering around the shadows to see if I can get some gossip..." I shrugged, "It's useless but now I know what to do with left over wool." I winked.

[Ziva :)]

"It includes everyone nineteen oy younger,"

[OpenTheDoor]

Violet: "Great..." no more wool tips...

(gtg)

[Ziva :)]

((Adios))

[Kanon-San]

((Bye))

Sauda: "I guess that would include me, but I've got other plans." I stood up, turned on my heel, and started for outside.

[Ziva :)]

Leo:

"Okay..."

[Kanon-San]

Sauda: I stopped. "You do know that Empire troops are passing by near here to deliver supplies, right?"

[Ziva :)]

"Yes, our forces are already lying in wait,"

[Kanon-San]

Sauda: I shook my head. "They already know they're there. They won't be going that way."

[Ziva :)]

"Come on," I've gotta tell dad.

[Kanon-San]

Sauda: "And where exactly am I going?" I asked, not moving.

[Ziva :)]

"To tell my dad, of course,"

[in~the~clouds]

Kiara: The centaure meat was good. Enough. I was finally able to walk. Finally. A few more days, maybe I could actually go somewhere. But where? Neither side would want me, and I would be stuck wandering through forest and desert until Rebel or Empire killed me. I cut the meat into strips and began building a small fire.

[Kanon-San]

"To tell my dad, of course,"

Sauda: I couldn't help but laugh. "Definitely not. I'm takin' them out myself. You can watch if you like," I added half-joking before I started walking again.

[Ziva :)]

I shrugged, "Okay, then," I whistled loud and high pitched, ignoring the glances from the people around me. My tiger, Garnet, came bounding up. "Let's go kick some Empire butt,"

[Kanon-San]

Sauda: "Leave the tiger behind," I said. "We're not attacking from the ground."

[Ziva :)]

"Where are we attacking from?"

[Kanon-San]

Sauda: "The trees," I said, pointing to the woods behind us. A smile played at the corner of my mouth just like it always did when I was looking forward to a kill.

[Ziva :)]

"Garnet climbs. Let's get going,"

[Kanon-San]

Sauda: I shrugged. "Just keep him quiet and try to keep up with me." I took off in a full sprint towards the woods. I could hear the tiger, Garnet, close behind me. Good, I thought. At least I won't have to worry about them falling behind.

[Ziva :)]

"She'll be as quiet as a lamb," I said, and quickly caught up with her, matching herstride for stride.

[Kanon-San]

Sauda: "Whatever. All I'm asking for is silence so they won't know we're there." We were just coming up to the line of the forest. I put forth all my extra strength and jumped up, landing on a random tree branch. "Keep up," I said, winking and continuing to jump from branch to branch, tree to tree.

[Ziva :)]

I leapt up behind her, loving the exhileration. I lived in the forest all my life, but this never gets old.
