"Right now!?" Marker asked with a chuckle, looking over at Cylus
English
-
"Well you know, no time like the present!" he says with a laughs. He leans back in the chair and meets Marker's gaze. "You set a time and a place."
-
He reached his forearm up and pressed on a pad with his opposite hand. "Any dropship pilots currently available come in please." "This is Beck Artfulie. What can I for you, Lieutenant Colonel?" "Need an extraction from the dojo. Courtyard A1." "Be there in ten minutes, sir." Marker set his hands down to his sides, glancing at the doorway "Shall we?" He asked, walking towards the exit

Edited by BondyMilk: 7/10/2017 12:23:38 AM"We shall." Cylus says, heading towards the exit. As they headed towards the courtyard, they passed by Cylus' armory. "Give me a moment." he says before heading in through the door. A familiar sensation ran over Marker and Cylus emerged mere seconds later wearing his current suit. Full gear and all. "Now that I'm out of that old bag, let's go." he nods.
-
"I didn't stop walking, bud." Marker said with a wave, nearly half way down the street
-
Cylus raised a brow and trotted to catch up. "Smart man." he comments.
-
"Hehe, thanks." Marker said, as they approached the dojo gates The gates opened and the two stepped in, looking at a Militia dropship sitting several feet from the main gates
-
As they approached it, Cylus watched as the ramp lowered itself. "After you pal," Cylus says, gesturing dramatically with his arm.
-
"Why thank you, good sir!" Marker exclaimed, stepping onto the Ramp and into the ship
-
Chuckling, Cylus climbs the ramp and turns to stand beside Marker. "This'll be my ... [i]fifth[/i] trip into space I believe. Still fascinating to me."
-
"Just you wait. I'll get you some free time up there. It's amazing to just.... Float around and look." Marker said as the dropship lifted off
-
Edited by BondyMilk: 7/10/2017 12:57:48 AM"I might just take you up on that offer." Cylus notes.
-
"Not today. We've got things to do!" The dropship landed in a Militia ship in orbit of the planet The ship lurched forward, entering faster than light almost instantly
-
"Of course!" Cylus says as the ship lurches forward. He adjusts his footing and maintains his position. "Still have to get used to that one though." he says with a grin
-
"You never really do if I'm being honest. You never really do." Marker stepped off the dropship into the hangar Bay of the [i]Militia's Paragon,[/i] where Cylus had been to visit the UNSC forces in uncharted space. "Should take a few minutes. So… go play Pac-Man or something."
-
"Will do." Cylus walks over to the nearest bench and props himself down. Turning on his wrist console, he begins playing. [quote]*Why do you insist on always playing such an old game?* Q asks[/quote] "Because it's fun and I'm too lazy to get another." [quote]*That checks out.*[/quote]
-
After a few minutes, the ship lurched once more as it exited FTL and floated towards Station Seven.
-
Cylus looked around and turned off his game, ready to move. He sat their patiently until the ship had fully boarded Station Seven, as it did the last time he came with Carly.
-
He could hear the large mechanical like arms bringing the ship into a docking position with the station. Marker rose up to his feet from a bench besides Cylus, motioning for Cylus to follow as he started walking
-
Cylus gets up and hurries to Marker's side. "I hope they've gotten the stuff prepared for our visit. I can hardly wait to see it!"
-
"I contacted Carly, she wants you to be the first to try out the prototype Arc rifle." Marker commented as they walked, heading towards the connector between the station and the ship
-
"That'll be something. I'm just glad to be here." Cylus replies
-
"Oh?" Marker asked, glancing over at Cylus
-
"I've been away from my project for too long, I'm mainly excited to see how it's progressed and developed. Well that and the transdimensional communicators that are in the works." Cylus says. "But also it's pretty cool to just be surrounded by all this technology I wouldn't have even dreamed of back on Earth."
-
"You really never thought any of this would be possible? I mean you would have to have at least some idea of what [i]could have been [/i]."
-
"Well definitely not in my lifetime. Like you said, on your earth you were already colonizing other planets. Back on mine, we couldn't even get to Mars." Cylus says "This is the stuff of Science Fiction. Video Games. Mere dreams where I come from. It'd take a hell of a long time for the people back there to even start to think about making this stuff a reality."
