KRIT POV

Damage Control

Part: Twelve

Author: Jacey

Rating: PG13 - R

Disclaimer: Krit, Syl, Max, Alec, and known characters belong to James Cameron, Chuck Eglee, and FOX. The names of Jondy and Zane also belong to them, but their personalities and characters belong to me. The story idea belongs to me, along with any additional ideas. I own, Lex, Ash, Rai, Trey and Bram. Tawny belongs to Kara.

A/N: I generally write M/L fics, (even though now I'm a total M/A shipper) but Lexie and Ash got me obsessed with Krit and Syl and I made myself obsessed with Jondy and Zane...The title of this fic, was allllll Lexie's idea :D.

Dedication: For Lexie and Ash who made me realise that there's more to DA than there seems, and that the other X5's are just as interesting, if not more so than the main characters. SO, for Lexie and Ash. May you both find your own Krit's. :) (btw - save me one ;) )

Characters: I modeled the character of Jondy, mainly off Lexie ;)

A/N 1: Every third part (i.e. Part's: 3, 6, 9, 12, etc..) will be a P.O.V chapter.

A/N 2: On recent info from Lexie, I take back any claims I made for Lexie, saying that she created TAWNY. Kara did. So, thanks Kara. He rocks! And I hope you don't mind that I put my own spin on him, and pretty much re- created him ;)

A/N 3: Yes, I am a New Zealander - I'm not making fun of my country in anyway - not meaning to anyway! I'm proud to be a Kiwi, and while I don't have a phobia of sheep, I don't exactly love 'em. I don't think that the rumor of NZ being full of sheep is true though... I've never even seen a sheep in real life... let alone touched one.

Also - I was a ballroom dancer - for all of 1 year! But I loved it, and I'm thinking about taking it up again! And for the record - Yes, this is the longest POV I've written yet. I'm writing them mainly as fillers, but I feel that it give's a little more insight into the character's that are taking us through this story.

Enjoy Chapter 12!

Krit POV

I've been around for a while, I guess. Twenty years in total. When you compare that to the amount of time that other people have been around for, it's not much.. but when you compare what I've seen in these twenty years, to what they have seen in their entire life times... Well, I've been around.

I've seen thing's that normal people don't even see in their nightmares.. I've been through things that I wouldn't wish on ANYONE... except maybe the people who created me. No. Not even them, because if they hadn't created me, then I wouldn't be living out here, in the life I want. well semi - want, and I wouldn't have the best friend, I could ever ask for. Cause if they hadn't created me, they wouldn't of created Syl either, and I don't know if I could live without her. Of course if we want to get all technical, I wouldn't be living, cause if they hadn't created me, then well, obviously I wouldn't be here, and neither would Syl, so none of this would make sense.. which is what it's starting to not do.. Make sense that is.

Syl says' I babble, when I'm nervous. Or happy. Or excited. Or scared.. actually I think what she was getting at was that I talk to much. But really, she's one to talk, cause I mean all she does IS talk... That's one of the many reason's why I think we get on sod damn well. We're so alike that it doesn't matter that we're alike. You know how when people are alike, they don't get on all that well, cause they argue all the time? Well we are SO alike that we're past that. I mean, yeah we argue. All the time, but because we're so alike, it's easy for us to resolve our differences.

Like I said before, I don't know what I'd do without Syl. Maybe live a normal life. With Syl I can't do that. I don't blame her for that or anything. Its just that I have to protect her, cause I can't let ANYTHING happen to her. I'd never forgive myself if something DID happen to her. If I was alone, I guess I'd only have to worry about my self, so I' thinking that I'd live a normal life.

But what is normal really? I mean, who's to say that we aren't normal? Who defines what is and what isn't?

That's what I don't get, with this whole phobia of transgenic's thing... Did they ever stop to think that we might be scared of them? That they are as much a threat to us and we are to them? That we are exactly like them?

Talking about phobia's though... what is with that sheep? I SWEAR it's stalking me! Everywhere I've looked over the past week, it's been there. I mean if it'd been a pig or something, yeah, I would have accepted the fact that it just happened to be there. But sheep are smarter than we all think. I'm SURE that they know more, see more, and hear more than we realise. WHY won't the damn sheep just STOP following me? Why can't it go back to New Zealand... I mean even after the Pulse that place is full of the damn things.

Those New Zealander's must be a special breed of people... To have all of those sheep around, and not get the hell out of the country as fast as possible. I couldn't live there. Hell, I couldn't even go there for a holiday (even if it was possible) I mean, all those sheep EVERYWHERE.. following me, watching me..talking to each other..conspiring against me...!

Hmmmmmm maybe all New Zealander's are like a special breed of transgencic... one's without the sheep fear gene. I'm thinking that the people in Australia missed out on that gene too... I mean, yeah they don't have as many sheep as New Zealand, but it's pretty damn close... hmmmmmm that would mean that Jondy missed out on the sheep fear gene too.. maybe she's really form NZ... I might bring this up with her next time we have a conversation.

I know that they all think I'm weird... BUT, I can tell you something weird about each of them. I know for a fact that Syl is cared of heights. I KNOW? What X5 is scared of heights? She hide's it pretty well, and I do my part to cover up for her, but she hates doing up too high. That's why I volunteered Jondy for the laser fetching mission.. I knew it'd involve heights... I wouldn't put Syl through anymore fear than I have too.

Zane, for example has a closet yo-yo addiction. I swear, he never let's anyone, except me see him with it; but as soon as he's alone, or no one else except me is there, he pull's out the yo-yo, and yo-yo's away. Last year he started crying cause the yo-yo string broke. Since then I've carried a spare one for him.

The person who confuses me the most is Jondy. She's always been one of the more sensible of us escapees. After Zack and Zane that is. She's never too hyper, never out of control. She's only needed to be rescued once, and has never done anything without asking Zack's permission. Except love Zane that is. But I know her biggest secret. I'm not the only one who know's it... Zane know's it too... But I can't tell it. You'll find out soon enough...

Lex, well, Lex, has an obsession with pajama's. Weird, I know. But that's our Lex. She's odd.. Weird, but she's Lex. She must be the only person I know who own's over a hundred pairs of pj's... and then there's the socks...

Then there's Tawny. Tawny's deepest secret is that for 4 years, he was a male stripper in Las Vegas. How do I know this you may ask... It's defiantly not because I was watching his show. I got a call one night, about 2 years ago, from Zack, asking me to head down to Las Vegas to help Tawny out of some trouble. And what do I find? Tawny being chased down by a crowd of screaming girls, who wanted him to take his clothes off. We left Las Vegas that night, and haven't been back since.

Rai, is a ballroom dancer. I bet you never knew that huh? I mean, no one would suspect her of being a ballroom dancer. Well, not just ballroom, Latin and rock'n roll as well. Her dad got her interested, and she's never told anyone before. The only reason I know, is because one of my girlfriends was a ballroom fanatic, and dragged me to a competition at a bar one night... and who did I see out there on the floor, but Rai. She's good though. She can Tango, Waltz, Cha Cha and Jive as well as any professional, probably better.

Trey, is one of the most secretive of our entire X5 squadron. It took me until last week to find anything secret about him. But I did. He keep's a diary... Shat? Don't look at me like that! I'm not going to tell you what it says... I'll just give you a hint.. it involves, Rai, chocolate sauce and honey.

I love my life the way it is. Despite the hatred towards us. Despite the state our country is in. Despite having to protect Syl. Despite being everyone's secret keeper. And even despite the sheep.. however creepy it is.
