Peace. Out of everything he missed during his time in captivity, he missed peace the most. His job made it nearly impossible, especially with the Chaos war in its 6th year.
As people walked by, they could see the purple skinned Sorris Icatokk(known as [url=http://orig02.deviantart.net/f3ca/f/2013/169/3/6/bubba_jett_by_hokunin-d69jnn5.jpg]Venator[/url] to most who knew him) watch them all pass by, with unexpected calm look in his eyes. He watched as parents and their children ran around together, neither having to see the other go off to a bloody war and never come back. He watched as couples made small talk, not having to worry about their world being glassed. He watched as people, completely ordinary people, went about their day without knowing about the multigalctic war just outside their Galaxy. He watched them, and he felt happy for them.
However, this happiness only blinded him from noticing he was being watched. Not by a civilian or a fellow escapee, but a an in [url=https://www.starwarsnewsnet.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/6.jpg]white armor[/url] with a red marking on his shoulder, just outside of Sorris' view. And he had no idea that this man was coming towards him, a knife concealed in his hand...
[spoiler]Open. Go to whichever one of the two you wish(preferably Venator, but I'm flexible). I'm going to try and make an interesting mini arc soon, and this will be its first chapter. [/spoiler]

[b]Amber, though distraught, noticed the stalker. She predicted his path, and made sure to stand in a spot that would put the stalker at the worst position. Once there, she tapped Venator on the shoulder and spoke.[/b] "They're all so... strikingly [i]normal[/i], huh?"
-
*Venator glanced over his shoulder, looking over at Amber. He seemed confused, not recognizing the person at first "I'm sorry: Who are you? Were you on the...?"-Venator *after a few moments, he saw the man in white coming over, squinting to try and analyze him more
-
"-on the ship? From the prison? Yeah, actually I was, but I don't believe we've met. I, am Amber Lockhart." [b]She stepped back took a pronounced bow, bumping into the man in white. Maybe it was intentional, but she made it look accidental.[/b] "Oh, sorry sir. Just introducing myself. Guess I should tone it down in crowded spaces like these." [b]She quickly stated to the man in white before moving back to Venator.[/b]

Edited by SilverPulse620: 5/15/2017 9:58:14 PM*the man in white simply glared at her for a bit before continuing to go towards Venator. Now seeing the man as a threat, Venator got up and turned to face Amber "Nice to meet you. Say, could you do me a favor and duck?"-Venator *the man started to come closer, taking out his knife and coming at Venator
-
Edited by Murph Tha Smurf: 5/15/2017 10:11:43 PM[b]She put her hand on her sidearm, a brutally crafted double barrel, sawed-off shotgun, drawing it and concealing it from the civilians around, but clearly pointing at the man in white. She didn't duck.[/b] "Not here." "You wanna shiv him? Find an alleyway."
-
*quickly, the man grabbed his sidearm on his belt, still holding his knife in his other hand [i]Analysis: Humanoid with heavy scarring and nerve damage and class 2 projectile weapon. Threat level: Moderate Solutio...[/i] *before the man could finish, the man could feel Venator placing the barrel of his plasma pistol against the man's spine, concealed to the local cameras and people but could be seen by Amber "I would stand down if I were you."-Venator
-
[b]She nods, knowing she could have fired long before he could've pulled the weapon, but she obviously preferred keeping a low profile.[/b]
-
*the man slowly turned to face Venator, scanning him [i]Analysis: Class 3 carbyne and titanium armor with a type 34b Krogstand plasma pistol. Moderate nerve damage and heavy scarring. Threat level: High. Solution:...[/i] *he slowly lowers his weapons, bolstering both of them. Venator slowly walks him over to the bench he was on, gun still on the man's spine. He soon noticed the symbol on his shoulder, seeming to recognize it "You one of Golden's men?"-Venator [i]Statement: Classified.[/i] *he pushes the gun harder on his spine [i]Statement: Yes.[/i] "Why did he send you?"-Venator [i]Statement: To make sure you didn't defect to the Alliance. [/i] "Does he really distrust me that much?"-Venator [i]Analysis: He trusts very few besides himself.[/i]
-
"What the hell is this about?" [b]Amber asked, holstering her weapon.[/b]
-
*Venator turns back to face Amber "This man was sent by a former employer, who just so happens to be a paranoid sociopath. He thinks I defected to an enemy faction, so he sent this guy after me."-Venator [i]Query: Who is this woman with you? Why did she mention a prison?[/i] "Oh. It just so happens that when Golden kicked me off his ship, I was captured by a xenophobic race who likes to work slaves to death. They were called the J'Jaro, and me and some others barely escaped. She was one such prisoner."-Venator [i]Analysis: This race does not match any name on record.[/i] "Yeah, well they are quite real."-Venator [i]Statement: You didn't answer my question before.[/i]
-
"He said [i]former[/i] employer," [b]She said to the white dressed man.[/b] "You don't have jurisdiction over his actions, nor the right to invade his privacy. If he were to join an enemy faction, it wouldn't even be considered defecting!"
-
[i]Correction: His actions are my concern. If he were to join the enemy, the information he could give would cost billions of innocent lives....[/i] "Like I said, I would never join the Alliance. They lost that chance when they killed my family."-Venator [i]Confirmation: Understood.[/i] "You going to try and kill me again?"-Venator [i]Analysis: Doing so would be a tactical error. [/i] *Venator glared at the man, then slowly took his gun off the man's back and put it in his holster "You have a name?"-Venator [i]Statement: That information is classif... Statement: You may call me ApolloX Mutata, or just ApolloX.[/i] "You a super soldier?"-Venator [i]Statement: Yes. [/i] "Figured. Only a super soldier program would give someone such a stupid name."-Venator
-
"Seriously? If I hadn't stepped in he'd have a knife in your throat before you even knew, and now your asking his name? You should go straight to the ministry of Doctrine in the Seat! We can't just have stabbings in the middle of the day here! The Concordat is already having a hard time keeping panic down with the J'Jaro threat, the last thing they would've needed was an unexplained terrorist attack."
-
Edited by SilverPulse620: 5/16/2017 1:16:42 AM*Venator turns to face her "Calm down. He knows that if he tries to kill me, he will only get himself arrested and cause Golden to be mad with him. And we don't want to anger Golden, do we now?"-Venator(mostly to ApolloX) [i]Analysis: Correct. [/i] *he turned to face the woman, his thin visor reflecting her glaring eyes [i]Query: Who are you? I doubt you are just some random prisoner. If you were, Venator would have left you behind in the breakout.[/i] "You have a messed up vision of me."-Venator
-
Edited by Murph Tha Smurf: 5/16/2017 1:20:37 AM[b]She reattains her cool, quite easily.[/b] "Left me behind? I pilote- well, was going to pilot the escape vessel. I would've been the only one leaving anyone."
-
[i]Analysis: I doubt it.[/i] "No, she is right about this. I owe her and Luck my life. You mess with them, you mess with me."-Venator *ApolloX simply stared at Venator, confused [i]Query: Why the sudden change of heart? I thought you didn't owe favors to anyone?[/i] "Wrong. I only never owe favors to Golden. However, you don't get on my nerves again, and I may let you live."-Venator
-
[b]Amber looked around, hoping no one was noticing the commotion, and waiting for the two to finish up.[/b]
-
*there was no one who took notices, or at least no one left. As she turned back to face the two of them, she could see them discussing something [i]Statement: There is actually another reason I am here.[/i] "Yeah? What?" [i]Query: Remember Zeta?[/i] "Golden's bodyguard? Yeah, he got me off Amoridia. Why? Are you tracking his killers?" [i]Statement: He wasn't killed. He is missing.[/i] "And you want my help?" [i]Analysis: You are one of the most qualified for an operation like this.[/i] *he walked over to the bench and sat down "Sorry. I'm retired." [i]Rebuttal: You can't be serious.[/i] "Oh, but I am."
-
"I don't know about you guys, but, uhm... I'm hungry. Can we finish this over some coffee and food at a café? They aren't too far." [b]She may have been fronting a comedic personality, but her expression was evidence enough that she was paying attention to the situation between the two.[/b]
-
"But we don't have any money."-Venator [i]Correction: I do. [/i] "How the hell..?"-Venator [i]Statement: Entropy has their ways. Follow me.[/i] *he starts to lead them out of the lights,Venator cautiously behind him
-
[b]She stayed wary of the "super soldier", but followed, probably happy to get free food.[/b]
-
*he continued to lead them to the 'Social,' an area with many restaurants and stores in it. He turned back to face the two of them [i]Query: What kind of food do you two want?[/i] "I'm good with almost anything."-Venator *Venator turned back to face Amber "Amy preferences?"-Venator
-
"Hm... it's been a while since I've had fine caviar..." [b]She said, jokingly.[/b] "Find a burger joint, that'll do just fine."
-
Edited by SilverPulse620: 5/16/2017 1:26:33 PM[i]Confirmation: I know a place.[/i] *he continued to lead them down the street. As he did so, Venator slowed down a bit so that he could walk alongside Amber "He definitely wants something from us. I'm just not sure if it for me to take the job or he wants to kill us."-Venator
-
"Well, in assuming he won't get very far either way. I'll stick with you, just in case. He's unlikely to try anything fishy with me around. On that note, if he wants to take you back... would you go? Do you have something against this 'golden'?"
