[color=92278f]"I learned a few new things"[/color], Sev said, [color=92278f]"Or rather I remembered a few things that I had forgotten about"[/color]. She flexed a pinky finger on either hand and foot long, curved serrated blades shot out of her forearms. Myrn jumped at the sudden unsheathing blades. [color=92278f]"Not bad huh? There's other stuff t-"[/color]. [color=ed1c24]"Nessa needs a break"[/color], Myrn cut in, [color=ed1c24]"Nessa needs a break and so do you, Sev"[/color]. The android retracted the blades with a jarring metal on metal sound. [color=92278f]"But the ship"[/color], Sev started, [color=92278f]"We have to get that thing in shape as soon as possible so-"[/color]. [color=ed1c24]"So what"[/color], Myrn was puffing out her chest now and standing her ground, [color=ed1c24]"So you can run off and get the both of you killed on some backwater planet? I'll start prepping for the ship maintenance in a second but for now you need to take a break. If you keep going at this rate then you'll just run Nessa into the ground and I'm not letting you do that. We're not fighting a war anymore Seven and she's not Amanzi"[/color]. Myrn stopped herself immediately after the name left her lips, placing a hand over her mouth as if to take it back. Sev furrowed her brows and a look of frustration formed on her elegant face, [color=92278f]"Don't"[/color], she said with a cracking voice. [color=ed1c24]"I'm sorry"[/color], Myrn uttered as she brushed past Sev to leave the bedroom and vanished into the cavern. Without another word Sev planted herself on the plush seat that Myrn was sitting in across from Nessa. She sat there with her face in her hands attempting to hide the artificial tears that were burning down the sides of her cheeks already. It was rare for Myrn to vocalize herself like that to Sev but whenever she did she always knew what buttons to push and what nerves to hit. In a way the girl was right and that's what hurt Sev the most. After a moment or two of awkward silence Sev lifted her head and wiped her tears with the back of her hand. With a sniffle she turned to Nessa, [color=92278f]"She's right and I'm sorry. I'm not real so I don't have a lot of the same feelings that you get and I'm realizing now that I've been pushing you pretty hard for these last couple of days. Between trying to keep you safe and seeing my sister again I've been a little inconsiderate and selfish. Just know that I have the best intentions for the both of us. We'll get your name cleared and I'll go back to doing my stuff. Promise"[/color]. Sev reached out and offered Nessa a pinky finger, hoping that the notion of a pinky promise wasn't lost on a Star-Born. Six admired the captain's bravery in speaking to her in the way that he did. It was almost refreshing considering that most Elites never spoke back or either avoided her completely because of her reputation. [color=f26522]"You're right captain, I don't care"[/color], Six crossed the room and sat in one of the chairs and crossed her legs, [color=f26522]"But if it means that much to you I'll give you a summary of what happened. We tracked the Star-Born and her accomplice to the ship depot. We'd split up beforehand and I was to distract the android that she was with while Feya here took on the Star Hopper herself. As you know things went left for the both of us and the targets got away. The next time I saw Feya she was beaten within an inch of her life and practically foaming at the mouth. It was pretty disgusting honestly. If you need anymore details I'd be happy to send you the report that I already filed. How's that"[/color]?
