part 8 Techno
"Are you sure your ready to start fighting again Shadow?" BayaDane questioned Shadow, his hand scratching his head. Today Shadow had fully recovered, it was good timing too for BayaDane was needed in another location, a fort at city Sisaro. "Yes father... er...sir. Yes sir." "There's no need to call me sir if I'm talking about you. No matter when or where."
The small group walked, the scenery changed from thick, lush forest to dagger sharp rocks and patches of sticky molten lava. The sun's rays burned and scorched land. The sound of gunfire and grenades slowly faded in in the distance. Female medics ran around like mad men, dragging and carrying any wounded soldier they find to a safe spot away form the war. "BayaDane," Shadow spoke, avoiding the grasp of a crawling imperial soldier, "why are all the medics women?" "Most of them are because women have more strength in their legs then men. It allows them to run faster and longer which they can then bring any wounded away from battle. And with that being said and it being your first day out of bed, you're going to help with the wounded."
Shadow sighed and walked to a medic struggling with carrying a soldier. She lifted the soldiers arm and put it around her neck, Shadow pushed the medic with her other free hand to the ground. Fearful of Shadow the medic quickly scurried away to help someone else.
The scorching red sun fell and a pale full moon rised. Shadow sat down leaning her back against a slanted rock. She watched as two Soldiers fought each other. As she was distracted an imperial Soldier picked up his blade and started running towards her. Finally a fight, Shadow stood up and stared him dead in the eyes. As the Imperial with a mid scream a gun shot, the bulet went straight through his head. Shadow sighed in disappointment it was her fight... The man that shot the gun sat next to her, she didn't look at him. "Might want to be careful next time and grab a weapon before leaving the bunkers." "The only weapon I need are paws and claws, it's fun feeling the arteries pump their last ounce of blood." "Ah! You're part Domnae too."
Shadow looked at him, finally interested in the guys small talk. His hair was short and black, his eyes a dazzling, foggy sky blue. His left arm was titanium and Black, vein like wires poked from dented metal plates, his arm was broken past his elbow. "Who are you?" "I call myself Techno." "Call yourself?" "Yea well... I probably wouldn't have been allowed in the Army if BayaDane knew my real name. My parents were Imperial soldiers whether they liked it or not. They died early on in the war and I was left to fend for myself till two guys took me to BayaDane." "Wait you met my father? I don't remember ever seeing you." "Well... I remember seeing you... Shadow right? I remember seeing you, you were sitting outside on a night like this right by blue roses. I'll never forget seeing your blue eyes dance with slivers from the moon."
Shadow turned her face away and blushed, what's wrong with me, I've heard way more prettier things from others. How does he make me blush... oh god no! Techno turned his head, he put his hand on Shadow's cheek and made her face him. "As a matter of fact that wasn't the frist time I saw you, that was the last. Up in till those final moments I thought of you as a sister. I guess I had much more feeling than that for you and... and leaving you made me realise that."
He pulled her closer, Shadow began to shake, her heart was racing. How could she forget him, forget Techno! BayaDane brought him to her home the day after she got her blessing and curse. Ever since that day everyone thought they were brother and sister. "Shadow... I know this sounds crazy after being away from each other and now just remeeting but... Will you... Will you be my girlfriend..."
Shadow leaned closer and kissed him, her heart melted, his lips were so soft... she just... fell for him. Techno looked at her astonished he didnt expect her to accept. Shadow looked at his eyes one more time, "Come on. We should take you to the medical bay and get you a new arm."
Completely wordless, techno walked with Shadow, they held hands and walked to the medical bay.
