Earth (Second timeline)
-
-Termes saw a sign and he said, “We’re to retreat to the hundred yards mark. Stay on the high road. Move quick.” He started a crouched run to the new position. Eriess and Antige followed swiftly. When they would reach the mark, Termes would turn and watch the battle carefully with his eye. Eriess and Antige sat on the edge and let their feet hang down as they looked at the pre-retreated Dersians.-
-
Casi followed swiftly, taking her ammo with her by stuffing it in her pockets. The girl sat down by them,after testing to make sure the ledge was safe to sit on, she tucked her feet comfortably under herself,ready to spring up in a moments notice.
-
-Eriess looked over at Casi and said, “How you holding up?” Antige was concerned as well and said, “Yeah, you are the newbie to our ranks. How many kills you get?” Termes was concerned and listening but also watching for the retreat. Instead he saw for one to come back. Termes said, “He wants me to return to the battle, I will be back.” Termes ran back to the prior position. Antige sighed, a bit worried.-
-
Casi blinked,”I’m good, you guys chill?” The girl looked at her guns,”I wasn’t really counting, but with my low bullets before I filled these babies, I think 20ish? I’m not very sure.” She glanced at the other trolls,”How about you two?”
-
-Eriess smiled and said, “Well, I got maybe thirty, but our numbers won’t even put a dent into the thousands of prospitians though.” Antige said, “Fifty nine, on the dot. My bow and arrow are fast and efficient.” Eriess giggled and said, “No kidding. Plus you are in competition. He’s getting ahead by going back.” “So?” Antige smirked, “He won’t stay in the lead for long. What do you think?” She looked at Casi.-
-
Casi shrugged,”But it makes a small difference,less threats.” Casi absently took apart her gun and swiped it down and put it back together,repeating the process with the other hand gun. “I have a much bigger gun in my Modus,but I’m afraid to use it.” Casi reloaded her twin pistols and clicked on their safety.
-
-Eriess looked at her and said, “Like a bazookakind?” Antige smiled and said, “We’re going to be in a lot of battles. You girls can keep talking, I am napping.” Antige curled up and started sleeping. Eriess rolled her eyes and said, “Casi, if you ever need a nap, you can do so.” Eriess was more than willing to keep track of their surroundings.-
-
Casi shook her head no,”More like a machine gun, but I’m fine,thank you.” She twirled her guns absently in her hands, but she was careful not to drop them. She looked through the crowd of retreaded trolls and others trying to spot Armane, it proved to be useless as the throng hid his messy hair and horns.
-
-Eriess noticed her continually looking in the retreated crowd. “You looking for Armane? He’s still on the battle front. They’ll be on the retreat soon.” She turned to look for Termes and saw he was coming back. “Looks like sooner than I thought.”-
-
Casi hummed in agreement,a small and sweet sound,”I guess so.” She stopped twirling her guns and set them to rest in her lap, she started to fittle with her fingers, tapping out a quiet rhythm on her knee. The raven head sent a small wave and smile to Termes as he approached,”So they’re coming back?”
-
-Eriess said, “Probably.” Termes got back and was panting. “Damn…” He caught his breath and said, “They are retreating in one minute…” He sat down and was sweating. It was obvious he was running around a lot. He even laid down. “That was a damn good work out..” “Termes,” Eriess said, “If you sleep, I will wake you at the next battle.” Termes nodded and just conked out, his eye powering down. Eriess looked back at Casi and said, “Sounds like Armane will be back soon.”-
-
Casi gave a small grin and looked up at the sky, there was just clouds by the girl found a strange beauty in it. She then glanced at the robot troll,if she can call him that,”I don’t think it’s a very good idea for him to just lay down after running a lot..” The girl shrugged,”But what can I do about it?”
-
-Eriess smiled and said, “He will need it. I can push myself with my hope powers, stay up for sweeps on end without it effecting me because I firmly believe it. Just like I believe he will be alright.” Eriess turned and saw he had gotten a hit on him that didn’t heal. She believed it wasn’t open and it scarred up on him. It was on his arm and it seemed an arrow had nicked him. She then looked back to Casi and said, “Soon everyone will be meeting up, I should keep a watch.” She stood up and took out her rifle to watch through the scope. “They are coming back, slowly.”-
-
Casi tilted her head, “If it was a retreat, wouldn’t you try to get away fast?” She turned slightly saw the mass of trolls and other creatures coming back, it wasn’t a very clear view, but she could still see them. She started to fittle with her guns once more,taking one apart and putting it back together.
-
-Eriess put her rifle down and said, “Yeah… They are coming faster than I thought though. Prospit seems to be setting camp. This war is in our hands.” The grouping gathered where the dersians retreated, the trolls, felt, and Carolus all coming up to join the snipers. Temahn laid next to Termes, cuddling up to his sweaty body. Crowbar hugged onto Eriess and kissed her. Armane and Fenrie went right to Casi and said, “Are you alright?” Dremon was holding onto Kroman, seeping his rage as they approached, them curling up near Antige, Dremon holding onto Antige. The others all settled and laid themselves down except the queen of Derse, who was just arriving, and Carolus. Carolus appeared to be attending to pulling arrows out of himself. Fenrie looked over and went to check on Carolus, as was the queen of derse. Armane stayed with Casi to assure if she was alright.-
