The World Falls Away
Chapter 3: Pranks and Punishment
Jen "The Stampede" Motou
"KIRA YAMATO GET BACK HERE!"
"LIKE HELL!" I shouted back as I continued to run through the corridors of the Archangel. –Note to Self never agree to help Tolle play a trick on Fllay and Mirallia ever again- The girls were pissed and well chasing me. Why not Tolle you ask? The dirty bastard faked innocence and blamed it on me. I highly doubt I would have ever thought to "borrow" flour and sugar from the kitchen, mix it in a bag, then get it wet, and rig it up so when Fllay and Mirallia returned to their quarters they'd get doused. I'd never think of something like that. –Granted it was funny though-
"KIRA!" I heard my name screamed again, but unfortunately noticed it coming from the front after Miralla appeared in front of me and tackled me to the ground. "You as SO dead." She growled. "HAVE MERCY! I'M HEALING!" I pleaded. She only grin-glared at me "DON'T' give me that CRAP! It's been FOUR months! BABY!" She yelled, which from the tone of her voice caused me to gulp. She put a hand on her short once brown locks, and rung the gooey substance into her hand. "Have some Kira, it's fun." She growled again flinging it into my face. "urgh…" I groaned as it collided with my eyes and mouth. "Un-hand him foul demon!" I hear a joking voice, come from behind Miri. "Help!" I chirped, and saw Tolle come running in. He picked Miralla up off of me and grinned. "Ya know Miri, that's a good look for you." The dumb fool – sealed his grave- She let out a repulsed noise and slapped him. "Why I never!" She stormed off in a fuss. "Nice." I smiled to him, and he helped me up. Once on my feet, I shocked him in the shoulder. "Hey! What was that for?" "WHAT FOR! For Abandoning me! I'm not taking the fall for you! It was your Idea!" He laughed…"But the look on your place was priceless." I glared….then paused realizing something…"Hey...where's Fllay?" "Uh-Oh…." We chimed in unison.
"Ensign Yamato, Cadet Koenig would you please report to bridge immediately!"
Looking at each other we gulped, worry in both our eyes after hearing the Commander's 'calm' voice. Walking there I wrapped my arm around Tolle's Shoulder as he did mine. We both hung our heads and sighed. "We're dead man. Dead. It's been nice knowing ya." He sighed in agreement. "Kira buddy, I'll miss you." The doors parted and we entered the room. We reported to Commander Ramius, saluting. "At Ease. You see that boys?" She said calmly as we turned looking out the main window, seeing one of the PLANTS. "That, at least for you Mr. Yamato, is where you're going to spend the day. Welcome to L2." She smiled, almost menacingly. I mean I knew I had been a pain as of late, -Tolle and I pulling pranks, Slacking off on the Strike, and Sleeping more than normal- but was that reason to kick me off the ship! "Yes Ma'am." I saluted. "As for you Koenig, we need to talk." She hissed. "Ensign Yamato you're dismissed. Be on your way. You're on leave now." I left as ordered, changed my clothes back in my quarters and headed off of the ship. I stepped into the colony and took in a deep breath. It was nice to get some fresh air. Why she booted me off was beyond me, but this was going to be quite a day.
To Be continued….
