Andia: The Revolution

[Leyyuce]

"The demon that's been-" Peter paused as Hremai began to spin the revolver's cylinder iin preparation to raise the weapon.

"Hremai," Peter again stated her name, his doing so becoming rather redundant. "You don't really want to end your life. I don't want you to. Come on."

[JVElEven]

"Prove it. I challenge you! Find anyone that can prove that it would be worthwhile NPT to fire this gun, and I'll consider it."

[Leyyuce]

"Look at me, Hremai," Peter stated plainly, attempting to distract the girl. "You have plenty to live for. You're young, you're bright- when this war is over, you'll have more than enough time to start over again. You could do anything! Just look at Aarys and Valentin- you could end up just like them, if you'd try a bit harder! My God, you looked beautiful when Lyra cleaned you up the other day!"

[JVElEven]

"And look what good that did me. You've got fifteen minutes. I'd run if I were you."

[Leyyuce]

"Hremai," Peter again pleaded, "I can't just leave you sitting here." He stepped a bit closer as he spoke, still a good five feet from Hremai's position.

[JVElEven]

"I see what you're getting at, smart guy, but if you go any closer, I swear I'll pull the trigger!" Hremai shrieked, getting up on her feet.

"I'm perfectly fine. Just go searching. Clock's ticking."

[Leyyuce]

Peter gritted his teeth and departed from the area, first locating Valentin as Aarys as they were seated beside a fire relatively near to Hremai's location.

"You need to get over her," Peter began dramatically, "Hremai is threatening to end her life unless someone convinces her it has meaning. I know it's ridiculous! Just come over here!"

[Eltee]

"She... Hremai? No... Hremai?!?" Aarys exclaimed, jumping up. "Where? Oh, god! Where?"

[King Acunasti]

"I know of something we can do!" Valentin said.

[Leyyuce]

"Come on!" Peter insisted, leading the pair past a group of tents and into the tree-surrounded clearing where Hremai had positioned herself. He had by this point retrieved his pistol from its holster, holding it tightly in his dominant hand; he now revealed his reasoning for doing so.

"I'm going to head into the trees, in case Hremai really does try something drastic. Don't worry- I won't act unless entirely necessary."

[King Acunasti]

"Sh*t!" Valentin whispered. "My plan involved Peter!"

[Eltee]

"She's not gonna shoot us, I am sure of it." Aarys said. She approached the place where Hremai was standing. "Hremai?" She said tentatively.

Spoiler:

Sh*t. Now we have to wait for JV.

[Eltee]

Spoiler:

Yup. Maybe if you hadn't knocked your dumb head in Ballarwood, we could RP, but noooo...

[King Acunasti]

Spoiler:

Sh*t. I thought my dumb ass cousin would be around to post more often.

[Eltee]

Spoiler:

Go kick his Italian arse, for god's sake!

[King Acunasti]

Spoiler:

If only...

There must be something we could do.

[Eltee]

Spoiler:

RP general?

[Leyyuce]

Peter, once having processed the man's comment, returned his weapon to his side and approached Valentin as Aarys began to communicate with Hremai.

"What's your plan?" He asked quietly, remaining attentive as to Hremai's position.

[King Acunasti]

"You're not gonna like this plan." Valentin whispered back.

[Leyyuce]

"This isn't the time for messing around," Peter bluntly replied. "Just- tell me the plan."

[King Acunasti]

Valentin shrugged. He cupped his hands around Peter's ear so that Hremai could not hear or read what he was saying. "Kiss her." he whispered.

Spoiler:

Popcorn time.

[Leyyuce]

Peter suddenly recoiled; not out of disgust at the thought of offering a kiss to Hremai, but simply in surprise as to the suggestion.

"I don't believe that she's attracted to me," he responded in an equally discreet manner, his thin lips barely seperating as the words slipped free.

[Eltee]

Spoiler:

Either would I. Ashtray mouth.

[King Acunasti]

Spoiler:

"So what?" Valentin responded.
