Mulling it over I take you aside.
"I do want to know more about the... being an Immortal thing. I wasn't born as one, but he was and yet somehow we are similar. I suppose it's more curiosity than anything, but I feel like I need to know. Juggernaut want me to go."
I chuckle mentioning Juggernaut.
"But will you all be ok if I do go?"

-
I sigh deeply as my fingers latch together. "Yes? Juggernaut mentioned a way to travel infinitely faster and seek other Immortals. You have to have 2 Immortals though to make it work... or be extremely powerful which neither of us is. I know Zorr isn't exactly the quote on quote best travel partner... definitely lacking in social skills, but we are both after the same thing." I take a breath, rather nervous now. "And Jams, I don't want to get anyone else in trouble or hurt because of me. I think becoming stronger means learning who I now am. There is only so much Juggernaut can teach me."
-
*I rub my forehead for a minute or so* You are serious. ... I... Guess you're right. You need to learn yourself. I can teach you... But you don't need a teacher. You need to learn. *I hold both of your shoulders tightly* You are certain this is what you want to do? I can't stop you... *I throw my hands up* I can even go with you. I just... I'm apprehensive...
-
"I understand. We've come a long way together and I've come to depend on you and the others for quite a lot." Pausing my gaze seems to be distant. "I don't know what I'll be like without you. I'm strong and confident with you all here. I only hope to be so when I'm alone as well." "It is rather frightening. I'm not sure how I'll fly from the nest though if I don't start now. Although this is a rather scary scenario. Zorr was just our enemy. I can't stop this feeling that draws me to leave." "Jams... I know I'm rather set in my mind, but... Well knowing you are at least a little ok with this would make me feel much better."
-
*I stare into the distance for a moment* You're supposed to rely on us... That's why we're here... *I look straight into your eyes, with a stern look on my face* If I tell you it's fine to go, you are going to promise me, swear on your life, you will stay safe.
-
I nod and smile. "I promise. I will come back to you no matter what it takes. No matter how long it takes." I hug you quickly then leave to set my affairs in order. Zorr waits across the way and General Grant is still checking out the ship even though his fleet is continually asking for updates, he tells them to bug off.

She's actually leaving. *I sit down, in obvious shock* *I bury my face underneath my hands, and fight the urge to scream and stomp about similarly to a child* *After a few minutes I calm down, collect myself, and head over to Zorr*

Edited by blackwolf619: 4/9/2015 7:09:50 AMIn her room Zara writes 3 letters and transfers "guardianship" of DelFino Corp to Jams and Phantom in her absence. She takes a couple of things and longingly takes one last look at her room before turning off the light. Back with Jams, Zorr can see that he is visibly upset. His blank demeanor though is unchanged as he watches the man.

Edited by SonacyOfTheHams: 4/9/2015 7:11:28 AM[spoiler]About what? :O[/spoiler][spoiler]Nevermind.[/spoiler] *As I approache Zorr, a multitude of emotions run through me* *Predominantly negative ones* *I walk up to him* Zorr... A moment. I won't bother you for long.
-
Zorr follows. "Yes? What is it you wish to discuss?" [spoiler]accidently hit the post button. Edited now[/spoiler]
-
Edited by SonacyOfTheHams: 4/9/2015 7:19:17 AMAlright... *I can barely look him in the eyes* So... Zara is going with you. Wherever the hell you're going. And... *I look coldly into his eyes momentarily* Keep Zara out of harms way. I don't care about any rites of passage. If I hear she is hurt, I will personally- *I shake my head, then sigh* Make sure she comes back. And make sure it's Zara who comes back. Not a different girl. *I look at the ground* That's it. I wish you luck. [spoiler]She better have brought the picture![/spoiler] [spoiler]Lots of effort went into writing that![/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]She has the picture. There are several mini dimensions she can store items in and just by thinking they will appear in her hand. Precious items like the picture and the gown and jewelry Kurai gave her are stored in the personal dimension. [/spoiler] [spoiler]i swear I have Zorr in my head as Keanu Reeves :P [/spoiler] Zorr is motionless and emotionless as usual. "I promise that I will do my best. As I understand Immortals, females are highly valued. Those Immortals that are more powerful others are subservient to. It is my belief that Zara will be immediately accepted and hopefully will make a way for me to meet other Immortals. She is also more powerful than I. She just has not fully realized her power. Therefore, I am subservient to her. I understand that this will not quell the emotions that writhe within you, but... They should help ease some of the pain." It's like talking to a computer, Zorr pauses and thinks before continuing. "I'm not sure how long it could take to find Lady Heather or other Immortals. It could takes months if not decades or possibly centuries. If it takes more than 5 years though.... I will send her back to you. You have my word."
-
[spoiler]Lol.[/spoiler] *My jaw nearly drops to the floor* Fi-five years? *I am overcome with anger, despair, and sadness* *I sooth myself momentarily, careful to avoid making any hasty mistakes* I guess that's all I can ask. If she comes back sooner... then I'll be happy. If not... well... *Thinks to self* *I shake my head and dismiss my thoughts* I won't keep you any longer. Bring her back. *I give a slight nod, then walk away* [spoiler]Are you up for the General?[/spoiler] [spoiler]Not sure if it's late for you or not.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]We can play around with the General tomorrow. I have enough posts left in me to finish Zara's story. [/spoiler] Zara sprints back nearly leaps at Jams and hugs him. "Thank you so much! I'm so nervous and excited all at the same time. Oh Oh! Here is a letter authorizing you and Phantom to run DelFinoCorp in my absence. Please feel free to change the name...." Her voice trails off and then she solemnly says. "I won't get a chance to say goodbye to everyone. The sooner I leave though the faster I can return, right?" She smiles sadly. "I am worried about Ginger, Exo, and Lethal though. They are too much of a pain to burden anyone with, but please make sure they don't kill each other." I hand you the company documents and 3 letters on top of that each addressed to a different person. "You can... Um, feel free to give those out at your discretion. The letters I mean. They are a little personal." I look away slightly embarrassed.

Edited by SonacyOfTheHams: 4/9/2015 8:16:18 AM*I almost jump with joy as I see you running back* *The squeeze you harder than I should've* I thought you- Nevermind, that! *I take the documents and the letters* I'll make sure Phantom has a look at the documents. Thank you for trusting us. *I smile back at you* I'll make sure they play nice. They won't rip each other apart.. Probably. *I study the letters* Personal? I can only imagine... I'll make sure they get to them. *I carry the letters and documents in hand* *I stare at you, distraught* So. This is it. For now.
-
I hug you back just as tight. "Thank you so much. Yes I do trust you and Phantom with the company. Honestly it runs itself with the board and all. Makes nine figures quarterly so it's not doing too bad." "Oh and your picture. Do you want it back now? Before I go?"
-
*I smile and shake my head* How else will you remember me while you're gone? Keep it.
-
Emotions rise to my face and I try desperately to hold them in check. Hugging you one last time I thank you again. My voice is going as I walk over to Zorr. I turn to you one more time. "Please tell Vex and Bardex that when I get Back I look forward to sparring. They better be ready. I want Cj's tacos too when I get back. Lethal needs to keep you guys alive while I'm gone. Do pet Minerva for me and say bye to Murph. He was so sweet and helpful. Python... Please remind him to take it easy with his God complex. Ah Phantom, tell him thank you for everything and I am proud to be even half as outstanding as you Jams." My smile lights up the room as I stand next to Zorr. Raising a hand a gold door appears and we walk through. Only for a second does the door remain before disappearing. With that our little darling is gone.

*salutes as you walk through the door*

*A single tear rolls down my cheek* ... *I say nothing, rather walking over to where I last saw Zara and sob uncontrollably* [spoiler]I cry every time.[/spoiler]
