Encroaching Companions
13 October 2009
Sum: With the enemy at their back, on Terran soil, the Silver Alliance had only one choice, to help their once allies, now fallen from grace. Something they'd promised never to do.
AN: So I know I promised to work on other stories, ones that had been gaining dust forever, but I just felt like I needed to write this. I love silver millennium, it's not as well documented as most others in the manga. However it is well documented in my own stories and on the web, but I hope to change things just a bit again. It might sound similar to one that I may or may not have uploaded, but it is different. This time they're not on the Moon fighting Serenity's sister.... probably haven't uploaded that one at all.... oh well, that's a good story too, in its own right, but it has a different feel and a different story line and characterizations to a point. The only thing similar is the camps, in a way. Anyways.... I have learned from past mistakes and will be drawing on things that I have already established with others stories to create this one, so as not to argue with my great chain of being. ;P I also learned to write a truly good story you have to spend a lot of time working on it. While I do that, I also put out like 5 stories a year... whereas my favorite authors are lucky to finish one in five years. I don't think I've learned from that lesson, which you can take either as a good or bad thing, either way, it gets you another chapter to read, even if it isn't the one you wanted to the story you started with.
AN2: I'm not going to try to get preachy or political, but with stories of any war, it is difficult to make promises or stick to them. So I won't make the promise, but I'll make the effort, but definitely not anything modern days.
Prologue
She'd be in big trouble if they knew, but they wouldn't. They thought her peacefully resting on Venus's banks, soaking in the sun, trying to gain some color, an impossible task, and enjoying the surf.
They thought her safe there.
They thought she would stay there.
They all thought wrong and when they left her side, forgoing their oath to fulfill another side of it, that was when she made her escape. She could not let them have all the fun, now could she?
Yet now, she was in a lot of danger. Some of which she had not been adequately trained for, and some of which, even with training, could not offer her the protection, had she been one of them truly, and thus, she had been kept in the dark about a lot of things.
But she would not return, she would rather be in danger than sitting it out.
Even her mother would be involved and had insisted that her daughter go run off to the seas of Venus alone without any companions to keep her company, occupied or assured of presence in the relative safety away from the major battle grounds.
She wanted to be a part of it, was tired of being a good little girl looked upon as worthless and nothing more than to take her mother's place when she too left this world. She hated fighting, hated death and destruction, but something called her to this planet like none other, and so her guilt was temporarily aboded.
Besides, they would never know, not as long as there wasn't any threat against Venus that required them to return to her side. She didn't even have normal guards placed on her, thinking she so well hidden in the middle of nowhere, not to even fear a capture or injury upon her person. That was how isolated she was from everything.
Frankly, she was bored too.
So with a flick of the wrist she went into the forbidden and entered into the fray. She would not learn to regret it.
