Pioneer, an open world Sci-Fi RP.

"Good point. Jess would want me to keep on living and not make her death be in vain." David told James "But what am i to do without her? She meant everything to me and without her, it feels like i have nothing." He said to James whilst looking at him.

[The-Shadow-One]

Alex looked at David. "She still lives." He muttered, and extended his hand, a finger, to poke at David's chest. "Here." the finger moved upward. "And here." Heart and head.

[The SheoDovah]

"Good point but i'll never hear her laugh again or see her perfect face again untill I'm dead. I just can't go on without her." David said to Alex. "If i had the photo, it would ease the pain a bit." He told Alex. "But it doesn't change the fact that i got her killed."

[The-Shadow-One]

"You can hear her and see her.. in your memories." Alex muttered. He turned. "What picture is this?" He sighed. He was going to get it.

[Musicman247]

"You have memories of her," James said at the same time as Alex. "She will laugh and smile whenever you want her to. I know it's not the same, but you don't have time to mourn her properly right now. Her or any of the dead."

[The SheoDovah]

"It's a picture of us together on the observation deck. We took it when it was empty a few days ago. I did put it behind some of my manuals due to regulations. Hopefully it is still there. I know i can still hear her and see her in my memories but that's all it will be, memories. She would have been very interested in meeting these aliens." David told Alex. David turned to James and said "I can't function properly if i can't mourn her. but the photo may be enough for me to delay mourning her."

[Musicman247]

James looked at David as if he was crazy. "But look at you right now! You're fine, and carrying on a normal conversation. I think you're stronger than you think you are."

[philfredobob]

Adam heard the conversations with David. good, thats what i like to see he thought to himself, glad to see people sticking together.

Adam saw Alex turn towards the door and ask for a description of the picture. wait, is he going to try and get it?

Adam walked up to him, and put his hand on his shoulder. ''slow down there.. that banshee thing is still out there, and you cant just be running around on your own, its not safe'' Adam warned him.

[The SheoDovah]

"But for how long? It's only a matter of time before i breakdown again. Jess was perfect. Because of me, she got killed in a painful manner." David told James.

[Musicman247]

"How did she die and you not?" James asked.

[The SheoDovah]

"One of those things grabbed her and..and.... I failed to save her. It ripped her chest apart and....and seemed intent on devouring her heart.She blew it up with a grenade. But i should have saved her. It's my fault she is dead." David said to James whilst fighting back his tears.

[Musicman247]

"So a grenade will kill them?" James asked.

[The SheoDovah]

"I think but i think she shoved it into it's eye." David told James grimly.

[Musicman247]

"So an RPG?" James asked. Without for an answer he turned to Cyril. "Do you have training on that kind of weapon?"

[The-Shadow-One]

Alex grinned. "Don't worry." He chuckled. "I'm quite speedy myself." he turned to Adam. "Omega positive."

[philfredobob]

Adam thought for a moment after hearing that. he then released Alex shoulder. ''heh. .. i guess we'd just be slowing you down'' Adam said, with a bit of a smile. Alex seemed to know what he was doing. Adam doubted he could have ever stopped him in the first place.

Adam sighed. ''Alright ... fine .. good luck'' Adam then said simply.

Cyril was still distracted by his relief in seeing Mesut had survived so he barely made out James' question. He turned to him trying to piece together a coherent answer to what he made out and said. "I've been trained to use almost anything you can find in this armoury. What did you have in mind?"

[Musicman247]

"David says his girl killed a banshee by shoving a grenade in its eye. I figured you might be able to do the same with a rocket propelled grenade launcher," James answered.

"Or we could move now," Kaleem said, "The Banshees are nocturnal and there's maybe two hours of daylight left, it takes an hour for us to get there and back if we move as fast as we can, there's four of us and we can possibly carry four of you each."

The Captain looked at Alex, already knowing the answer.
"You're a deserter?"

[The-Shadow-One]

Alex shrugged. "They killed my sibling." He muttered quietly.

[p-sto]

"Probably safer than getting up close to one. Sounds like a solid plan to me." Cyril replied. He then turned back to Mesut. They had been disagreeing a lot recently over Cyril's conduct and he had taken to avoiding him. After recent events he realized how important the man, who was like a brother to him, really was. He put a hand on Mesut's shoulder and said. "I'm glad we didn't lose you."

Turning back to James he said. "Let's see we can find ourselves some RPGs." He promptly wandered armoury to do precisely that.

Humans
Cyril found one of the larger, shoulder mounted Pulse Weapons, one of those specially modified to fire explosives.
"You're lucky we're not in Federation space," The Captain said, "Otherwise I'd have to detain you."

[p-sto]

Cyril smiled at the weapon and hefted it over his shoulder, though he hoped they wouldn't run into situation where it was required.

Aaro, hearing Yetty's concerns slowly opened her eyes. "Dreem, packed something last minute and put them on the ship when we were loading up." Aaro stated then yarned before flexing her arms and stretching. She wanted to be alert when they got to the planet controlled by O'Sekra. Taking a nap on Treemara, it was the most wonderful experience as she felt comforted by him, her forever mate.

[The-Shadow-One]

Alex looked at the captain. "They killed. My. Sibling." He said, producing the plasma pistol. "This is all I have left." He looked at the captain and put it away. He gave a small chuckle. "I'm not a deserter. I am one that's lost, they severed their ties to me and I to them."
