"Nope, never met her."
-
"Well shit, its about time you did!" [b]he smiles[/b]
-
"Probably." Python smiles.
-
"And... I'm gonna have Twins. I really, really can't wait." [b]he smiles even more[/b]
-
"Congratulations man."
-
"Thanks. You know, in all my life, for all the things I've done, I finally feel like I've [i]done[/i] something. Like I've accomplished something."
-
"She sounds like a very nice person."
-
"She really is. Can't wait for you to meet her. I'm really, really lucky."
-
"Can't wait either. After the war?"
-
"Probably. I hope it'd be sooner, but we want the peace and quiet. Although... man, I'm kind of Scared... what if I don't come back...? What if I get killed out there...? I don't want to make my kids grow up without a dad..."
-
"Relax, dude. I take bullets so you guys don't have to. Kinda my job."
-
"Yeah, but you can't always be there."
-
"True. When I am there though, just get to cover. I'll handle the rest." He smiles.
-
"Can't let you have all the fun." [b]he smirks.[/b]
-
"But you got a family to go home to. Something to lose. I don't. I'll have most of the fun."
-
"I do have a family to come home to. And that's why I'll fight to my last breath for them. To protect them from whatever evil hides out there. And they're hiding from me." [b]he smiles, hus confidence returned to him.[/b]
-
"And my job is to keep everyone alive. My old drill sergeant always used to say You lay down your life for your brothers and sisters in arms. They come first. As a machine gunner, you can't be afraid of Death. If you die, you die with honor and strength. He was a hell of a soldier."
-
"Sounds like he was."
-
"Yeah. Taught me pretty much everything I know."
-
"Don't forget his teachings next time you feel like rampaging."
-
Python smiles. "He didn't train me for that."
-
"Someone's gonna have to teach you about it then."
-
"I doubt any else is like this."
-
"In the crazy world we live in? Someone's gonna fit the profile. I'm sure."
-
"There were....." He thinks a bit. "8 total? Something like that. We called ourselves Genesis. Anyways, we were all built for a certain fighting style. You know, to form the ultimate squad kinda thing. I played the tank and berserker roll. Most of us are dead. Chances are: the rest are captured or in hiding or something."
