The Fallen:

The Fallen: Angel

OK so time for a recap.

I don’t know my name...or much beyond years of drugs and training...I broke out...got picked up by some bad-ass mercs.... and found someone from my past.... now time for the fun***

If you remember last time I found some girl on Horizon that I can remember from the prison. So I tagged her and brought her back to the station I had an apartment on. Anyway she woke up quietly about two days after I took her down...then again I did have her doped sedatives from her IV. O well she’s awake now, lets get to the fun part.

She had just sat up on the bed and was staring quite intensely at the armor on the wall. I really hope I didn't screw up her mind or something like that.... god a brain-dead chick living in my apartment.... just what I need.

Thinking back it probably wasn't the brightest thing to do but I left my rifle out as I went to go get her some meds. As I was half buried inside the med closet, I felt the hard cold metal of my rifle digging into the small of my back.

"Step back and turn around" a small yet powerful voice commanded

"How about you lower the rifle first" I called back, seeing just how far I can push her

"You have three seconds...then I blow a hole in your back the size of my fist,” she whispered

So I turned around slowly, watching her sway as her took a step back, right before she fell face first to the floor. God this one is going to be a blast

It was a few more hours before she came to again but this time I was prepared. Tied her down with some chain and had my rifle on hand.

"SO HELP ME GOD I AM GOING TO KILL YOU" she screamed as she struggled against the chains

"Look you attacked a merc who happened to be a very good friend of mine, and I know how you’re feeling, but that hatred isn't meant for me,” I said trying to calm her down.

"How would you know what I have been through, merc scum!" she said, spitting on my boot

"Its your eyes" I told her "The way you look at someone, sizing them up, analyzing everything about them...wondering the best way to take them down. Or when you’re in a room, complete darkness, you can see like its midday. Or when you sleep, it’s always light, your mind hearing everything around you, making you dream of the room you’re in and all the sounds you hear." I said slowly waiting for her to speak again.

"Who are you?" she muttered as she stared at me, watching me, studying.

"I do not know my real name, but my brothers called me Fallen" 

"You got to be shitting me,......Fallen.......well Fallen its nice to met you....my names Angel"

"How do you know these things merc?" she said cautiously like I was something new

"Because you and me are the same,” 

"YOU TOOK ME FROM MY HOME! YOUR CREW WAS MEANT TO KILL US ALL!" she scream and thrashed against the chains once more

"That wasn't your family, your home, or your friends. Horizon is a military colony isn't it? I escaped from some jungle planet, made my way to an abounded space port and managed to get picked up by Reapers Brigand...I escaped and made my own life...now its your turn to do that same"

"What do you mean by that?" she asked

I explained to her "I am going to give a gun, one hundred bucks, and some cloths...then I am dumping you on the other side of the station, from their you should find your own life."

"OK but what if I get back here, can I work with you?"

"Why would you want to work with me, you were ready to kill me a few seconds ago, and besides I don’t think you could make it?"

"Because imagine if the two of us worked together. The Reapers would be unstoppable...and we be the best there!"

"I will drop you...if you make your way back, I will take you to Cracked...she will decide if you become a Reaper or not"

And with that leveled my rifle and tagged her, again,...damn this was going to be fun.

The station is basicly an artifical planet...with the things I am giving her it should take her little more than a year to even make her way back to this section...I almost hope she does.
