Scenes on Barrier Gate [The aftermath]

[r3vange]

Halsey didn't quite understand what Samantha meant
[color=#FFCCCC][size=small]
"Got a sub-orb nearby?"


[font=Palatino Linotype][color=#CCCCCC]"Sure"

[color=#FFCCCC]"Care to give me a lift?"


"Anytime"


They barely spoke a word on the way to the suborbital car, once they got in Samantha just stared blankly
through the window as the car rose to 40 000 meters and started coasting

[color=#CCCCCC]"You alright Sam? You look a touch pale"


[color=#FFCCCC]"Yes, I'm fine a bit of C-poisoning"


"C-poisoning? How di..aaah right. So what now?"


[color=#FFCCCC]"What now? It's up to her really, run,hide,die whatever. And I don't even know what Sol did with the other
one. It's a win-win situation for me. Worst case scenario she dies, the high command is happy. Best case
scenario you gain a wingman...a hell of a wingman"


"Sam...You creep me out sometimes"


[color=#FFCCCC]"That's why you all love me"


In under 2 minutes the sub-orbital car covered the 100km from the Naval yard to the beach side where Villa
Marquez was.By now Anna's ships should have been delivered to the naval hangars. Fernando put the car
down right next to the front door.

"Wanna come in for a drink? I've got nothing to do anyway, I let the servants go for the weekend"


[color=#CCCCCC]"Sure, just don't get that rough stuff again ok?"
