[Nithera]

Seth frowned a little, suddenly feeling a strange sense of fear in the pit of his belly--making the hair on the back of his neck stand up. He blinked and rolled his shoulders once or twice as he watched the soldiers milling away toward the chopper after their leader. It was strange...

Saya watched the men move in cold silence, her eyes piercing and chilling.

Fullen waited until the workers had left before slowly standing upright again and turning slightly."When it comes to the threat of death, we are all selfish." he muttered bitterly, still not looking at her."My boss told me to do this, or be fired. If they fire me before I am old enough to retire, they will have me killed to avoid me giving out any government secrets." he said, sitting down in a chair and leaning over to rest his elbows on his knees and his face in his hands. It was obvious he was stressed and ashamed... He sighed--exhausted."I'm not going to let you die, however. I dont believe you deserve it." he mumbled, knowing she could hear him.

[Patch.]

Max swoops down as the chopper takes off. He shifts, frowning at Seth. "What's the matter?"

I swallow thickly. I could list so many things worse than death.

[Nithera]

Seth's brow furrowed and he shook his head slowly."I dont know... Just... Feel funny..."he said, a hand on his flat stomach.

Saya frowned and looked at Seth, a little concerned.

Fullen ran a hand through his hair."Just because you're not human doesnt make you anything less." he muttered, sighing heavily. "That's the problem with us humans."he said quietly."If something is different, we destroy it. People do horrible things out of fear. It's shameful and embarrassing." he grumbled.

[Patch.]

Max eyes widen with fear. "She's...she's not." He's stammering. Sammy couldn't be dying. They just needed to follow the chopper...

I watch him. I couldn't decide if he was a genius or utterly insane.

[Nithera]

Seth swallowed thickly then took a breath and shook his head."No..." he said steadily."...She afraid..."

Saya's eyes narrowed."And she's scared for a reason, then. We need to get going."

"You think Im a nutcase." Fullen murmured, leaning back in the chair."That's okay. I'm not of the norm, I know. I was born with a mental illness. I forget what it is called..." he grumbled. He looked at the door. The sniper wasnt there yet. He was probably dressing down for the job.

[Patch.]

"Let's go." Max darts after the chopper.

My legs shake, but I stare him down. All I could think of was Seth: his eyes, his touch, his voice... My heart breaks. I didn't trust this guy not to kill me...

[Nithera]

Saya nodded and launched herself from the tree after Max.

Seth tensed to go after them, but paused when something caught his eye.... A glint of silver... Seth landed silently in the snow and picked it up. He smirked slightly and shoved it in his pocket before taking off after Saya and Max--catching up in a second or two.

Fullen stood slowly."Thirty two years of hell."he muttered. After that, he was silent for a long time before he slowly stood up straight. He didnt look at Sammy though."Shiki." he murmured quietly."Remember the word... It'll do you good... Sooner than you think..." he looked over as the door opened...

[Patch.]

Max glances back at Seth. Why had he stopped?

"Shiki?" I repeat blankly.

[Nithera]

Fullen murmured; Password. Fullen turned his head slightly to look at Sammy sideways, his eyes intense. Slowly, he put a finger to his lips in a gesture to be quiet.
He looked back forward as a woman walked into the room, dressed in her uniform. She saluted to Fullen and the thin man nodded to her. He smiled."Morning."

Saya shot Seth a questioning glance too.

Seth met both their gazes once but didnt break stride.Found a new toy. he said simply, his eyes narrowing slightly. One of the soldiers had dropped a weapon on the ground--something Seth knew how to use.

[Patch.]

I tremble and stay quiet. I swallow and hang limp.

Max smirks and slaps Seth on the back. "Not bad."
