[b]Quality of Mercy[/b] [i] The drop ship shattered against the fierce winds of the Martian desert. The light above my fireteam flickered on, turning red. The drop would commence in ten seconds. Out of my little window i saw the faint outline of a city. One both buried and destroyed by this sand. The light transitioned to yellow, 5 seconds. I made my way to the end of the drop ship just as the ramp began to fall. I checked to make sure i was ready to drop, I never finished. Everything behind me was suddenly engulfed in flames and i was thrown out of the poor little ship. I caught once last glance at the thing before it suddenly erupted again and was no more. I used tried using bit of space magic to slow my perilous decent into the city below. But i hit the ground hard and everything around me seemed to fade. I woke up sometime later. My shoulder was throbbing and my vision was blurred. The space magic worked, sort of. I was still alive, and now i needed to find a way out of here. The objective no longer mattered, I was all alone. And the jungle does not treat the lone wolf well. As i got up i noticed the sand was whipping around the city, and more importantly around something standing in the street. I walked through a courtyard towards the figure. Whatever it was, it turned towards me, beckoning me forward. And i listened. Just before i reached the figure, my legs gave out, I collapsed into the sand. I heard a voice, it simply said "Rest guardian, you are in the care of friends." I was more than happy to oblige the voice. And she was more than happy to help me rest...[/i] Exactly 299 words. anyways i hope you guys enjoyed my short story.
