(Closed. Elijah has left.)

-
I walk past you drinking from a flask "What's up Wiz Kid?"
-
[b]Elijah looks away from Phantom.[/b] "You.... Not much.... Thanks for that piece of help yesterday..."
-
"I certainly try." I continue walking towards the food linr
-
[b]I scowl, and then turn back towards Phantom.[/b]
-
[b]I enter the Mess Hall grab a tray of food I sit at the same table as you and begin eating[/b]
-
[b]Elijah looks up from the newspaper.[/b] "Hello. Name's Elijah. I'm new around here."
-
Where did you get a newspaper? Nevermind. Welcome to the Team. I'm Phantom.
-
*ahem* I posted...

-
I do a lot of things. Perform maintenance, pilot the Ship, Team Leader....
-
"Whats the team? I thought this was just a ship carrier."
-
What? Why did you board then? This is a team of mercenaries. And the ship name is the Exalin Carrier. Never heard of it?
-
"I boarded because i saw a job opening as a ship engineer.... Its complicated. Anyways. If we are a single team, then that confuses me. This is too big of a team.... This a mercenary company. But what about the crews here? I keep hearing about everyone's different crews. This is a ship carrier, and all the crews that land here form a team of mercenaries? It just doesnt make sense to me you know?"
-
People come if they want to join. Sometimes their Pirates, other time Captains. If you think you can survive with us, the welcome aboard. It was formed to save Me, Ginger, and the other Genesis from a MegaCorp.
-
"Wait.... You're Genesis?" [b]Elijah twitches a bit. Angry. Kind of like he is remembering something...[/b]
-
Yes, that and the creator of the operation. I thought this was common knowledge.
-
"No actually.... You gave up, dishonored really, the name of the human race, to become a superhuman mercenary! You are a mutation of a great being. And if you had ANY dignity you wouldnt have gone through with that cursed operation!"
-
What? What in the hell are you talking about?
-
"Your genesis super soldier program! The thing that makes people, innocent people mind you, unless they WERENT innocent, in which case you are STILL screwing the world, into advanced super soldiers, mutations, monsters, people who are just shadows. Shadows in metal carcasses."
-
First, everyone volunteers for it. Second, do you think we look like robots? Could you even tell I was Genesis? No, correct? I don't know where you got you're info from, but we hardly go in rampages through cities.
-
"I didnt say anything about rampages! I said you dishonored humanities name! You threw your humanity away! It wasnt good enough! You needed to be better! And i didnt say that they were captives or something! I said they threw away their dignity, or they just did it to betray you all and become villains!"
-
You know, being a bigot isn't very charming. I'm not guessing your popular with the ladies. [b]I smirk[/b] Nothing good will come of yelling at me about losing humanity. I'd keep that to yourself.
-
"No! But you god damn better know what you're doing to people! You think they understand what they are doing to themselves??? And since when do i give a shit about love or that crap!" [b]Elijah is standing now.[/b]
-
I would think so, seeing as how I warn them before I go through with it, and give them several chances to opt out. [b]I continue eating[/b] I don't really see your argument.

He is angry, and then his hand goes back to an open palm. His expression weakens. He is remembering something...[/b] [spoiler]sorry, had to go to Junior High picture taking.[/spoiler]
