[FFRP] Kidaroc Myths: A Fighting Chance

[Sailor Ganymede]

"Good Night!" Alana says back as she falls asleep.

(Okay, I was just making sure. Thanks for the heads up.)

[Knight Errant]

He sighs. "Just checking if I was stumbling across some 'restricted' frequency. Not even the airwaves are free anymore..."

"So who are you hoping to catch? Or maybe I should ask... what kind of who's are you hoping to catch."

[Mystic Mina]

(At what rate is the virus affecting my character? I know it's slow, but will it be noticeable to him?)

Ashton nods at Ken's answer, then walks out into the hallway of the base. There didn't seem to be many people around.... Then again, by the look of things, it was nighttime. They aren't going to have much luck finding people at this time.

[Haylie]

"Well, they can give the 'surrender' order all they want, I'm not going down without a fight. I have a score of my own to settle."

[Brnin8r]

((Your transformation isn't immediately noticeable. Like you can't watch your hair grow by the inch...it's more of a passive check that reveals your frame changing more, like "Oh crap." you say as you realize your hair is another half inch longer, or that your nails are longer, or something odd like that. About every hour, you'll be able to find something to complain about lol))

Ashton would find the hallways empty for the most part, the random marine going along their own agenda, or a stressed out looking medic who had been consulting the injured all night.

The radio laughed a little, "Catch? Who said anything about catching? I can only assume you're a boy...or a girl with a tenor voice...but since you haven't been asking me imperative questions, I'll assume the former. I'm only defending what I have...and what you know will certainly keep you out of danger."

Alana falls asleep. As she does, her mind wanders into the nether of dreams. While her usual dreams may have caused her to have nightmares of her parents dying or the war starting, there is now a very definite change. Her arm is back and she's in cute summer clothing. (Just a sort of filler until we can time skip to the next morning. You can explore your nether while the boys are plotting lol)

[muffinstud]

Dan nods. "Whatever keeps the fire in your bones. Me, I just don't want to see the end of the human race. You know that'll happen if the girls get their way." He stretches his arms and yawns. "My name's Dan. What's yours?"

[Sailor Ganymede]

(lol! That's cool.)

Alana gets up to explore what she thinks is the real deal. She notices what she is wearing and sighs.

"This outfit looks so cute on me. Oh wow." Alana says as she stared into a mirror.

Alana looks herself over and notices that her arm is back.

"Huh? I thought my arm was gone. Yay! I can practice my Sword moves now!" Alana says as she leaves the full-length mirror. She then finds an empty room and works with her long sword, then sheaths it and removes her short sword. She then removes her swords and proceeds to practic her Karate, Kobudo and Japanese sword as well as some of her Judo Moves.

"This is so relaxing." Alana says as she continues to work out in her dream world though she doesn't know she is dreaming.

(Thanks N8! Much appreciated.)

[Haylie]

"Private Shawn Brown, engineer. Pleasure."

Shawn sits down on the truck beside Dan.

"So. Uh... how many battles have you been in so far?"

[muffinstud]

"Only one other. I was driving in a convoy when it got ambushed by a bunch of girls on those bikes we saw today. They hit us with a couple RPGs. I was driving a humvee, so I turned around and tried to get some of our boys up but..." Dan shakes his head and squeezes a tube of grape jelly into his mouth. "There were too many of 'em. We had to keep on driving, leave our injured there. Hardest decision of my life."

[Knight Errant]

"Yeah, I am a boy. A sniper in the boys army, actually. And really I was just messing around with this radio because I couldnt sleep."

[Mendi-chan]

"Yes..." Max said rather solemnly to the medic,"But until then I suppose we need to keep on going to keep any semblance of hope alive."

[Brnin8r]

The radio seemed to shrug "All the same. You don't seem hostile. I mean, you don't know who I am, but I don't usually talk to people."

***
A sole figure walks into the training room. "Welcome Alana, to your dreamscape."

[Sailor Ganymede]

Alana looks over to the figure stops practicing and sighs.

"If this is my dreamscape, how come it is so peaceful and serene? I am a bit confused here. Shouldn't I be having nightmares? About my parents dying and the war starting?

"Or is this the way I wish for it to be. I know my arm was blown off, but in this dreamscape I have both my arms so I can practice my Karate, Kobudo, Japanese Sword, and Judo. I like how peaceful it is in here. Please don't make me go back to the battlefield not just yet. I really want to practice some more. When I was in the boys army, they didn't give me anytime at all to practice any of my Martial Arts. They also left me for dead on the battlefield. That's why I want to get back at the boys army. They left me for dead." Alana said as her eye began to twitch in resentment and anger toward the boys army for abandoning her. The girls army saved her life. She has to be loyal to them.

[Haylie]

Shawn shakes his head, as if trying to clear something from his head.

"I'm... not sure I'd be able to do that. I'd probably stay and try to help them if I could. I don't know why. My dad's off on another war somewhere in Asia, my mom's who-knows-where, and my sister's trying to make me like her, so maybe I'm just hoping for a family or something."

[Shadowmaster]

Ken, also seeing that the hallway is pretty empty, turns to Ashton. "So...what now?" he asks.
