Forever And Whenever
Chapter One - The Blind Side
> > > > > > > > > > > > >
Juay P.O.V-
Snow was drifting softly around the town as it settled into a thin blanket covering the ground. A man stood atop a nearby hill as he watched the snow fall. It would seem like a normal person enjoying the snowfall, how it laid itself across the countryside, making the land look so pure.
"I wonder how snow looks like." he muttered.
He was blind, caused by a freak accident of shattering glass. A couple of shards had embedded itself into his eyes. Now he was blind, fortunatly. His messygreen hair plastered against his head, standing at about 5'7, his eyes were covered by a blindfold.
Picking up my stick, I strode back to the town, dragging my feet along the ground. ' I leave a imprint in the lives of people I met, yet like snow, imprints get covered up by more snow.' Fortunatly I couldn't see the things happening around me. I heard stories from the people at the bar, sounded like the royal army had thrown in more effort into stopping this "resistance". I don't think I could take the sight of people dying so rapidly around me. I stretched out my fingers and let the snow gather in my palm.
"Even still, I still wish I could see snow, colour, I wonder what white looks like?"

Bastian P.O.V-
Slinging his shopping over his shoulder, he glanced quickly at the sky.
"Snowstorm coming up, better make it quick." muttered Bastian.
Trudging through the light snow, Bastian made his way towards his apartment, only stopping to check if the groceries had caught any snow. Putting his palm on the scanner infront of his apartment, he punched in his passcode and threw open the door, only to find...
"Bassy-dear!" (A/N: Corny nickname...don't even ask, I couldn't come up with something better.)
A girl with deep red waist length hair launched herself at Bastian, causing him to stagger backwards, dropping the groceries. Looking deep into her azure eyes, he gave her a quick peck to her lips and settled her down back to the floor.
"Let me get this in hon, cause I smell something great back there"he smirked.
"I cook you know" Slapping him on the arm playfully, she pouted.
"Awww, ain't that cute."
"I'll be waiting here, go put those groceries away dear."
"Can't wait to taste the food hon."
Giving her another quick peck, he headed to the kitchen to unload the groceries.

Kiara P.O.V-
"Looks like the snowstorm is picking up guys." said Kiara as he slid another drink across the bartop.
"Doesn't matter, we'll just rent a room from upstairs." grunted a customer.
"Suit yourself." as he busied himself washing another mug.
Kiara worked at the NeonNights Bar, one of the most popular hangout places in the entire city of Aromic City, people from all walks of life entered here to forget, to enjoy themselves. As Kiara wiped the glass clean, he stared at his reflection in the glass. His hair had always been a mystery to himself, it was white, he kept it in a center part, some told him he looked scary. Odd.
"Hey bartender! Hit me with a Gragen Bull!" shouted a customer from one end of the bar.
'This is going to be a long night.' As he prepared the drink.

Shaun (Jigibut), James (Azure) and Leander (Nifty)P.O.V- (A/N:Heavy armor squad team, explained in later chapters.)
"Hey guys its getting late lets head in, I don't think they'll attempt an assault in this snowstorm." as Leanders voiced broke the silence over the intercom.
"Roger that Nifty, heading for base." James said.
"Roger that, heading out." Shaun's voice came through the headset.
Turning their assault bots around, Shaun took lead by starting up his afterburners and heading to base.
"Relax Jigibut, enjoy the easy ride home."
A sigh came through the intercom as Jigibut's bot visibly slowed down.
"What's the rush man." droned James's voice came through the intercom
"Nothing..."
"All right chill out."
"Ok team we're there, I'll be taking slot 05"
"07"
"12"
"See ya at the debrief room"
Groans came through the intercom
"Fine fine, I'll see you guys on the next patrol then."
"Roger that sir."
"Cut that... never mind."
"Yes sir." As laughing could be heard through the intercom.
"Arrrgh." As Leander switched off the intercom.
"Well at least that was something"
Guiding his bot into slot 12, he landed his machine and guided it towards slot 12, it was silent as he only could hear the heavy steps of his bots foot. (A/N: Think Gundam! Copyright that.) Guiding his bot into the repair frame, he took the bots lift down to the ground and into the locker room.
"Hey Shaun! Going anywhere tonight?" shouted James as he entered the locker room.
"Not really, what's up?" shouted Shaun back from the other end of the locker room.
"Nothing, wadcha say we head over to NeonNights?"
"Sounds allright to me."
"Perk up man, ain't the end of the world mate."
"Yeah..."

Ryan P.O.V
'This snow is really getting to me...'A man with blond hair trudged through the snow.
Pushing the doors open, he scanned the bar quickly.
'Viberant night life, true to the word.'
Watching people bouncing and gyrating to the music, he pushed his way past the music happy dancers and headed towards the bar.
"Hey Kiara, how's it going man."
"Wha? Have I... wait, Ryan?"
"One and only pal."
"What are you doing all the way east man? Weren't youassigned to base west?"
"Hit me with the usual will you."
"What? Fruity fruity?"
"Okay, okay, you better tell me what's going on man, don't like the look of that face." as Kiara started mixing the drink.
"Its Raptor Punch if you forgot."
"Never did."

Juay P.O.V
Making my way back to the NeonNights bar, I pushed open the doors as I heard the familar pounding of music and wild screams. Making my way around the crowd I stopped at the bar.
"Hey Kiara, your off man."
"Early today Juay?"
"Doesn't matter."
"Hey, why do you always have that blindfold on anyway. Its not like your blind or anything."
"Doesn't matter."
"Hmm..."
Picking up an apron, I started working my way around the bar, checking the taps and bottles left.
"Hey Juay, that apron doesn't really suit you does it."
"What?"
"Its Jessica's... you know."
"...Doesn't matter does it."
"Never mind."
I quickly swapped my apron for another.. True I could feel my way around, hear my way around, but when it came tocolours or patterns, I was still blind after all.
"Right I'll be heading out now Juay, enjoy the rest of the night."

Blake P.O.V
"Wonder if Ryan made it there..."
"I doubt he would be intercepted, after all the message was between Ryan, you and me."
"Mind readers, you know."
"He's cautious."
"That's why I sent him didn't I Hiro."
"Lets just hope he makes it quick, time is something we cannot spare now." as Hiro turned his attention back to the computer.
"Hope we shall."
