Nameless

[kaidance]

She had the smell of love. Love and passion. It was, and always would be my favorite smell, her hair
as it trailed up my back, her breath when she whispered in my ear. I listened without comprehension,
so lost in her reveries that nothing mattered any more. She had me and she new it, she played it.

"Do you love me?" she asked softly.
"Yes."
"Do you need me?" again, sensual, scented with venom.
"Yes"
"Will you do it? For me?"
I turned at that, her eyes, so green, like an ocean of emeralds, stealing the life from me,
the will from my soul.
"So... many will die" I said, tears running down my face, knowing my words may drive her away.
I began to shake.
Her arms closed around me, holding me, calming my sorrow wracked body.
"It is as it should be, my love. Their time is upon them. They must be made to understand."
"I don't know if I can, I am nameless and alone, only in your arms do I feel whole."
She kissed me then, soft and firm, my body responded immediately, and she released me.
"Do this. Do this for me and you will be with me. Always."

Rome Blue Basic had it's usual chaotic murmur. People old and young, noobs and veterans alike, milling about like ants
with no mother to guide them. They were lost and only she could see it, and through me would release them.
I stood amongst them, an island of grief and pain without end, ready to share with them torrent of fire in my soul.

I stood tall and raised my hands, spinning slowly, taking them in.

"IT IS FOR LOVE, AND LOVE ALONE THAT I DO THIS." I shouted.
"ONLY IN GREIF DO YOU REMEBER WHAT LOVE TRUELY IS."

Some one shouted back.
"YA, I GOT SOME LOVE FOR YA RI........"
That was all he was able to say as the anti-matter blast consumed him, and over 4000 others.


The fires raged on the view screen as she watched, she smile and hugged herself.
"Terrorist, makes me sick" is all Imodale could say.
"The news said the the bomber was saying something about love. Love is a powerful motivator it seems"
Her voice soft, a hint of pain it it.
"What ever, just another mindless killer and it means I'm gonna be busy for the next couple of days."
He reached over, switched off the view screen and took her into his arms.
"I think we better make the best of the time we have eh" a smile crossing his face.
As he began kissing her neck she caressed the back of his neck.
"Yes Imodale, we better." was her only reply.

((Cool story))

She walked unimpeded through the carnage that was RBB. The walls, pavement, statues all burned and brackish,
like a log in a fire after it has gone to charcoal. She brushed the souls that remained after the bodies had
been incinerated, they screamed at her, assailed her on all sides and she only smiled. The pain they felt would
last an eternity and she new it was how it should be. It has been a long time, years endless, since she felt
such pain and sorrow and she was strengthened from it.

A news paper blew by in in wind like an arrant memory, flittering just out of reach. It didn't concern her because
she new what it said. Omni blamed the Clans and the Clans, of course, denied any involvement. It didn't matter
who did it to these people, all that mattered is that there was someone to blame, and blame was easy enough to
place here.

Her hand brushed the statue that had once stood so prominent on the Store promenade, melted and scorched, perhaps
no truer representation of the Rubi-ka soul existed. It would be rebuilt, she new, but it didn't matter. The damage
was done and death of this magnitude was not so easily forgotten.

"HEY, WHO ARE YOU?"
An Omni-pol soldier trotted up to her. "You shouldn't be here, this area is still off limits until the investigation
has been concluded."
"My apologies, I felt the need to come and morn those we lost." her voice quiet yet filling his head. She looked into
his eyes.
He stammered an apology
"I'm sorry for the gruffness of my approach, We are all feeling the loss. Let me escort you from this place."
"That would be appreciated, my legs seem heavy some how." again, here voice silky, her eyes still locked on his.

He put his arm around her and led her away. As they walked, they passed the remains of a doll, the lower
section of its body gone, burned away. It's face scorched and melted.
She looked down at it, turning her head away from her new escort, and smiled.

Standing a half block away, Kaidence stared. She was frozen; frozen with fear and indecision as
she watched the woman being slowly led away by the Omni-Pol guard.

She had come to witness the carnage first hand and to offer her medical skills to those in need. It was her penance
for the loss of Danell, but that was a different story. She just new that those in need, would receive her help, but
she was unprepared for what she saw. The sheer destruction was appalling and the callous disregard for the lives of
those destroyed shook the foundations of her soul.

Death happened daily of Rubi-ka but if you had insurance, death was only a short stop. But this, this was different.
The insurance policies had failed. Everyone who died here is dead. Everyone who was injured can't just walk off and die
because their insurance policies had also been deleted. No one knew why or how for that matter, but it's rumored that
some high uppers in the Omni bureaucracy were scared witless.

And now her.

Kaidence couldn't take her eyes off this woman because the last time she saw her, she almost died like
these people did.

Seven Months Earlier in Schoel....


Kaidence stood on a small hill overlooking the brink and watched in horror as the small group of adventures waided
into battle against the beasts. There were to many, Horrors and Hecklers, at least thirty of them. She had never seen them
work together, never new them to be anything but brainless killers. But this was co-ordinated, this was planned.

The tank, a monstrous Atrox, was doing his best to bring down the beasts that circled him, smashing his armor and body
with impunity. Two fixers stood back, firing their rifles on the Vorascious Horror that the Atrox has currently attacking
with complete disregard for themselves or their surroundings. They didn't see the four Hecklers coming in behind them, and
Kaidence new they would be smashed beyond recognition.

Then their doctor went down just as the two fixers were engaged and felled by the four hecklers. Kaidence screamed,
lost in memories of past teams who had shared similar fates, and ran forward. Just before the Atrox was about to
succumb to his injuries, she hit him with a Complete heal.

It was as if time stood still, as all the hecklers and Horrors stopped hitting the tank and turned to look at her.
The atrox, for what its worth, new his job. He continued smashing the heckler in front of him, mongod and hit again,
and again. A particularly monstrous Horror simply picked him up and flung him over the brink into the abyss below,
but before he disappeared from site, Kaidence felt the essence of behemath flowing through her body.

She new that her only course of action was to run, but she stood her ground, as if rooted to the spot. The beasts
parted to reveal a woman strolling through their ranks, those that she walked by clumsily bowed before her showing
reverence reserved for seers and whores. She was beyond beautiful, a lith form cloaked in a
white dress that seemed to be alive, flowing around her, wrapping her protectively. She was tall, well over 6 feet but
proportioned perfectly. Her hair was reddish brown, the color of the flowers that bloomed on the western slopes of
elysiam's mountain ranges or that of dried blood, cut to shoulder length. Her nose was small and centered above full
lips, that seemed to be in a perpetual smirk, like she always would know more then you. And eyes of green, eyes that
could open you and read you like a book.

She walked as if floating six inches above the ground, effortless, and with an air of absolute superiority.

"Why would you feel the need to interrupt their playtime?"
Her voice battered me with power.
"I..I.... I couldn't just let them die, I cou..."
She interrupted Kaidence with a wave of her hand.
"All things die, it has always been the way, and it always will be. Except for here, of course. You people seem to
have beat the system, so to speak, with your insurance teminals. Denying the natural order, always has consequences.
You are a doctor, you of all people should know this."

"I heal, It is what I do." Kaidence rasped.

"Ha! You delay the inevitable. That is what you do. That, and nothing else." her lips shaped into a snear.

"I have to heal..." again, she interrupted Kaidence.

"For your penance? Kaidence, I see into your soul, I know you and I know that you are lost to your true potential.
I can help you."

Kaidence stepped back as if she had just been slapped. Her mind reeled with what she was seeing and hearing.
She blurted through a dry mouth.
"I don't think I could hang out with a bunch of Hecklers, just not my style."

The woman looked at a heckler bowed beside her. "You speak of these?" pointing now.
"Effective soldiers, don't you think? But easily removed."
She waved her hand and the Heckler beside her erupted in a shower of dust.

As the dust began to settle and visibility had been reduced to blocky shadows, Kaidence acted.
Nanobots erupted from her hands engulfing the woman and affecting her with Uncontrollable Body Tremors, she then turned,
pulling a speed stim from her pocket and jammed it in her leg, and ran.

"KILL THAT BITCH, KILL HER!" was her reply to the nano attack, along with a rumble as about thirty giant killing
machines began their pursuit. She headed towards the brink edge, believing it was her only salvation, running, knowing that
it was likely to far. A giant rock sailed over her head, another clipped her shoulder, crushing it. She stumbled
but ran on as her continuos healing nano stitched her together. The edge was five meters away when she felt the
bolder smash into her back, sending her over the edge. Her body was numb, she felt no pain as she tumbled through the air
, and as blackness engulfed her all she heard was the nameless woman screaming in anger.

She woke up on the desert sands of Tir now knowing what it was like to have had a bolder smash into her body.
She new it was her continuos healing nano and the essence from the Enforcer that had saved her,
and also new that she was very lucky.

It took her almost a month to find the Enforcer from the brink that day. He was in a bar in Bori, completely
and utterly drunk. She quized him about what had happened and he just repeated, over and over.
"They are dead, all dead. Gone......"

And now today,as Kaidence ran from the woman in Rome Blue, fear gripping her heart, she new that pennace was the least of her worries.
