In reply to: Glenn 's message, "Over already?" on 23:28:46 04/30/01 Mon

Solace struggled more as the jumper held her arms together, lowering down twords it's jaws to consume her and *which she would be unaware of* vanish into nothingness like with Virgil and Lyn.

But before the jumper got a chance to, a loud crack sounded to Solace's right, and suddenly she felt herself fall to the ground below. She heard Glenn's voice beside her and she turned to him with a smirk on her face ready to spill her usual 'thank-you-for-saving-my-ass-in-not-so-many-words' routine again.

But when she turned to face Glenn she noticed the movement of the shadow behind him a split seconed to late.
"Wha...SHIT GLENN! BEHIND YOU!!!"

Solace reached forward, grabbing Glenn by the cuff of his sleeve. But the jumper had to much of a grip on him, and in a the blink of an eye they both were gone, leaving Solace alone in the middle of the dark alley way with a torn bit of Glenn's sleeve in her fist, drops of his own blood on the ground below.

Solace only stared at where Glenn had been a few moments before, then she glanced down at the peice of fabric in her hand. She blinked a couple of times, a look of confusion and shock on her face.
He....he died...for me? What a fucking...what a dumb...mother fucking...why? Why would he...why?

Solace dropped to her knees, still gazing at the fabric inher hand with a lost look. This was the first time Solace ever experienced such an act, especially when she was on the receiving end.
I...didnt even know him....I treated him like such shit..and he gave up his life for...why do I feel so angered? He was such...such a dip shit...and yet...I feel...bad?...why?

Solace took in a deep breath, then rose to her feet. After another moment of stairing at the cloth in her hand, she dropped it to the ground and reholstered her guns, not giving it a seconed look.
It doesnt matter...just stupid emotions...they mean nothing, I dont need to start getting soft....the fuckers dead, not like anyone is going to cry over it....

With that, Solace took up her position back by the edge of the alley, glancing at the docking bay doors every so often, waiting for something to happen or the mechs to move. She felt a large explosion nearby, which caused the ground to shake slightly, and out of the corner of her eye she noticed one of the buildings near her began to collapse.
Looks like the others are having some fun....they keep this up and every damned soldier in this station is gonna know where we are....what idiots...
