Log Entry #9: Nezun Skyfire
Several days had passed since my last log entry. I didn't have anything noteworthy to record up until today.
The training had been going well without too much trouble. Dar'keth had been holding the group together, even to the point that he'd been taking the group into training and hunting without me. I've begun to think he's trying to muscle me out of the group, or at least take over the leader's role.
"If this had been me in my juvy years, I would have his neck wrung up by now." I told myself. But I was above that, for the time being. I tried to calm myself down by the time the evening had rolled around, Mira had said she would come by to ask me something important. She seemed rather nervous when she asked. I had hoped nothing bad happened to her. "But why?" I asked myself, perhaps these feelings for her are more than I had thought.
Nine o'clock had rolled by. Ten o'clock. I begun to think she wouldn't show up. Just as I got ready for bed, a knock on the door. It was Mira. I ushered her inside.
There isn't much to be seen in my room. An aged desk for which I write notes and various doodles when I'm bored. The other refugees had insisted that I have a 'queen' size bed as I've taken up the mantle of leader, so I needed to feel like one. Something about being the reason they're alive. All I had done was rallied them to fight back, I didn't think too much of it. "It's too big for me. I'm tiny compared to all of you," I told the others as they brought in the bed and furnished it with furs from various hunts.
The walls where adorned with various rifles and trophies from hunts that we had made plus what was present when we had taken over. A single shelf with several books I had not bothered to read. The floor had been covered with a large brown pelt.
Several small candles that had been burning on the desk was the only source of light when Mira knocked. We sat at the edge of my bed and talked for a while. Mira gushed to me about several things, most noteworthy being about her past.
She told me that she had no recollection of her past. Mira had awakened inside a facility on a nearby planet. She went on the explain all of the event leading up to being captured by the Glitch and the months of slavery up to when I arrived on the planet. "Life sure is strange." I told her.
A moment of silence passed. Mira had fidgeted a few times before she mumbled something, I could barely pick out what she said. What she said made me blush rather brightly. She wrapped her arms around me, and said it again. My heart begun to race, I couldn't bring the words out of my mouth. They were, but failed to come out. I leaned up to her, god it I hate being short in a moment like this, I thought. Our lips met momentarily, then several times. Minutes seem to fade away as the night went on. I… I can't really explain what happened after. But with that event, I knew that our feelings for each other were real.
