SPACE MARINE ENCAMPMENT 10:30

Kingo awoke first, getting up and putting on his priest robes and headed for the church inside the courters. He kneeled down and began the prayers to the chaptor god. Hikaru awoke and put his tech priest robes on. He walked by kingo praying. He scoffed and walked to him. "Honestly I don't know why you pray to what is called our chaptor's 'god'." Kingo stopped and glared at Hikaru. "Because...he protects us and saved us from extinction...maybe if you prayed we..." "Would have good fortune? come on Kingo! We have been having nothing but terrible fortunes! Don't you remember what happend to brother Onmi? Or sister Karlie? They are dead because of our mistakes! And what about our..." "DON'T! Don't you dare speak of her! She...you always speak as if she was something discraseful! Sure she...but it was to help us...we were poor and she had no choice..." "She had a choice! She was offered a chance to become a space marine but she rejected it...she could have been with us but no...she chose to stay a..." Kingo got up and grabbed Hikaru by the shoulders and shook him. "I said DON'T!" Hikaru got angry with every shake and pushed kingo to the marble floor. He grabbed Kingo by his robes and slapped him across the face. "Do you remember what mother said? To respect me? Huh?" Hikaru looked behind him and saw sister Gamma and brother Akimbo staring angrily at him. Hikaru let go of Kingo and he dropped to the ground, tears welling up in his eyes. Gamma walked past Hikaru and helped Kingo up, holding him close. Akimbo came to Hikaru, a finger in the middle of his chest, "You should be ashamed!" Gamma walked with Kingo and Akimbo to Gamma's room to comfort him. Hikaru welled up a fist and punched the wall, leaving a hole. He walked to his room and layed on his bed. "Why must this be so diffacult?" Hikaru growled angrily, baring his fangs. Inside Gamma's room she held Kingo, soothing him like his mother used to. Akimbo shook his head, "What has gotten into Hikaru lately?" "It has been the stress that is going over all of us like a tidal wave." Gamma said. She had a way of saying soothing things or giving very good advice. "It affects us all..." "But that was uncalled for...what he did..." Gamma stroked Kingo's hair, soothing the troubled soldier. It was not common for a space marine to cry or be bothered but Kingo was a more softer, kinder person who looked like he didn't belong in war or becoming a space marine. Although he was an experianced fighter, kingo was a soft kind hearted person.
