A Massacre of Mercs

[The Red of Sinner]

Jerrick laughed, "I have been in one before, the answer is right under....your nose...damn it, we gotta get back to the palace." Jerrcik rushed back to the yoke of the BlacKStar, and kicked in the drives, speeding away from the planet and kicking in the hyperdrive minutes later. "We'll be there in s few." he spoke. It was a bit intense what he was feeling. The need to protect the Palace. "Ive never been one for team playing, but theres a lot of innocent of people."

Rolland went to the co pilot seat and sat down next to @[member="JerrickShado"] "What was life like before the program?" Rolland asked kindly then looked at the black emptiness that was space. Rolland didn't remember anything before that day, none of the torture, none of the pain or anguish all he had was him waking up on an operating table a monstrous version of what he once was. It was all so different yet it felt right, the power, the armor, all of it just felt like this was where he should stand "What about you though?"

Jerrick looked at Rolland as he sent the cordinates to the capital. "Life for me...it has many adventures. I was a Mandalorian, I had a small merc band..still do actually. I had help protect the imperial capital from the fringies. It was...chaotic, and random. I did this for the Mandalorians..but I was rejected." He stopped and watch the ship take of into space, and then shortly after jump into hyperspace. "A few hours well be home. Honestly...I'm glad I'm here...but sometimes...the chaos was reassuring something would always happen. I'm only 20. I had a girl. Left her and all that, just to become something great. Maybe she hates me. Maybe not, I don't know. I know I have this..force you have, but I never payed it attention. I'm a orphan." He stopped to try and remember the raid on his home. He smiled, not a single flame appeared. Not a shot, scream, just the image of his mando mother. Then he frowned, had he did her wrong. Abandoned her? "I try to keep a good outlook on life. Sometimes I cry, sometimes I laugh. Sometimes I don't feel anything but anger, and hatred." He stopped again he was babbling about stuff that didn't matter to him anymore, things that couldn't be changed. "I know it doesn't matter to you, but we will get you memory back. My gift to you, as my brother, and friend." He promised @[member="Rolland CZ M1 002"]

Rolland nodded at everything @[member="JerrickShado"] had just said trying to understand his pain, the thing that confused him the most though were females. He saw them as nothing more than an ally or enemy, a simple means to an end. "Girl?" he said in more of a question like time "How does one have a girl?" his younger brother asked Jerrick he had no idea what relationships were or the liking of such. He felt no pain or empathy towards the loss that Jerrick had gone through, the man could say he was sorry but it would be a lie. But he did his best on trying to comfort his only friend by patting him on the back

"Zero One, sometimes I think about what it would be like to have my memory back. I sometimes think its a bad idea, no one has come looking for me. I don't think they want to find me" he said in his normal cold tone. The thought of wanting to know who he truly was always danced in the man's mind. But it was his problem and he wouldn't ask Jerrick to help him with it

Jerrick joked laughing at his bigger little brother. Well he had to answer it. "Depends on who you are. Lust could be involved, or a mutual benefit. Love. Many things @[member="Rolland CZ M1 002"] its complicated sure." He turned to the entrance of the cockpit. Pondering on what was next he motioned his brother to be attentive. "You arnt at your best, if you don't know who you are. I'm sure you a great person, probably, if not who cares. Your memories are your own, and of all the things that can be taken from you, they have no rights, ever, to take that from you. Who ever they maybe. Its distrustful." He leaned back again.

 

[Commander Lusk]

"Love?" he said in another curious tone, @[member="JerrickShado"] wasn't making any sense. Rolland was told nothing about it and when it came to females he was told to not care or see them as what they were. All this talk about love and lust was really starting to confuse him "So love sounds like a weakness right? It's comprising?" he said again in a curious tone. Sitting in the co pilot chair Rolland's mind span from this talk about who he was or memories of the past he just wanted to get back out there for the hunt.

"So this girl, did you love her?" he asked Jerrick trying to understand him better. Truth was Rolland would gladly die in a heartbeat not just for the empire but for Jerrick as well. They were trained to work as a team and always put the team ahead of themselves. Rolland knew almost nothing of Jerrick outside his limited file so this was a good time to know his older brother better

 

[The Red of Sinner]

Jerrick crooked his head in thought. Was it a weakness? "Yes and no. It can be a strenght, but the enemy can use it against you. No no no. I don't love her. It could have been serious, but this got my attention." He spoke to his brother. "Don't let someone tell you how to feel. Find out for yourself. Emotions are there cause they make you human."

"I hardly feel human, not that I knew what it meant in the first place" Rolland said sighing afterwards, there was a lot of things left to do. They had to get back to port drop the criminal off at the medbay and then get out and start looking for this terrorist cell. They had their work cut out for them not to mention they had been called to assist in a a planetary invasion. @[member="JerrickShado"] and Rolland had their work cut out for them. Though being the augmented super beings that they were it was just another day at work. "Love sounds weak of you ask me." Rolland said in his normal tone, maybe because he had yet to understand it

 

[The Red of Sinner]

"All depends brother. Can't knock till you try it." He said after the coming out of hyperspace. Astrial or whatever, he never payed attention to names, came into view. "Well time to get down to business...oh I could just break into song.." he stopped and grinned at @[member="Rolland CZ M1 002"]

 

[Commander Lusk]

Stopping at one of the space stations outside of Atrisia Rolland pulled the ship into the hanger and landed it swiftly. They had to move fast and get mobilized again. Their jobs were never done. "Wait here, I will take out the trash." moving to the back of the ship rolland opened the storage closet to see their prisoner "Hello" he almost smiled as he wrapped an electrical cord around him then booted him off the ramp with a note that read "Arrest me please" on it.

Walking back over to @[member="JerrickShado"] he looked at him with the skull plastered onto his helmet he shook it and almost face palmed "You ever start breaking out into song and I will punch you in the sternum" he said firing up the ships engines. They had an invasion to get to and it was going to be a blast

 

[The Red of Sinner]

Jerrick died laughing almost falling out of his pilot seat. "I would like to see you punch my ball skin." He contiued laughing. "We should break into song together!" He revelated @[member="Rolland CZ M1 002"]

 

[Commander Lusk]

"If you had any I would." Rolland said in his cold tone, that was the first joke he had ever made. It felt good, he was slowly gaining his humanity back through his brother and it felt good to be around his brother and joke with him. He would never admit it but he was growing attached to the man. He was his friend and brother and in the short time they had been together they had been through a lot "Yeah that's never going to happen the singing thing. I don't do happy" he said roaring the ships engine.

Taking off they slipped back out into space, they had to go all the way over to Csilla to join the garrison force that would join the invasion of O'reen. It was going to be a long flight and they had to get there quickly luckily the ship was pretty fast and they would get there in a timely manner @[member="JerrickShado"] had a pretty nice ride as far as Rolland knew
