Aerilyn glared at Shida, ignoring the others' words, and didn't bother looking at the girl who glowed. [i]Great, we have a glow worm and a plug-in for our electronics to stand up to the Void. I'm sad to say that we are the worst group of vigilantes to ever make an appearance on this earth...[/i] She then pushed some of her auburn hair away from her face before she clenches her hands into fists at her sides. How could they so easily lay down their lives for those that would easily takes theirs? It didn't make any sense to Aerilyn, not even the slightest. Despite the anger and frustration that she felt inside, swirling like a whirlwind, she looked rather meek and emotionless on the outside. Her face was a mask of indifference. Suddenly, she turned away from the fire and started towards the entrance. [b]"This blows."[/b] she muttered quietly before she started to climb back to the waste. [i]Maybe I should just take this chance to go away, saying that I'll head out to Atlanta and deal with it myself, when I'll just make a mad dash away from these madmen and their crazy notions of heroism.[/i]

Her heart dropped into the pits of her abdomen when she remembered how the world outside of the haven appeared. She didn't want to stay there or do what the old man had said. She may have been chosen as an Elemental, but that didn't mean that she had to follow this path. [i]I served a high class family as a bodyguard and passive servant for my entire life.[/i] She thought to herself as she sat down and breathed in the chemically embedded air. [i]I just want to live for myself, now.[/i] Yes, it was a selfish thought, but it was what she truly felt. She'd never been able to move or act as she pleased until she'd been framed for the death of the family's child. Taking on the mission that he had assigned would mean almost certain death alongside those goody-two-shoes who believed that there was actually a chance of winning this war. [i]I don't know what to do...[/i]
