Things Change
Odilio: No one. [Sadd: Plans]
Everyone seems to be pairing up around here. I don't need anyone. No one at all. I was always the odd one out in my family. Blonde hair and green eyes. So out of the norm from brown everything. Rome was a nice place but I couldn't stay when I was left one my own. Bandits are dangerous.
That girl who is talking to everyone. She seems excited for the games. Am I the only one who knows the truth? I have traveled very far. And I have heard of these games. I don't care if I die but winning would be nice.
The girl who is with her. She is a beautiful looking girl. Yes so is the other girl but I can't get my eyes off her. I hear her name. Aelita. Beautiful. We have the same eyes too! I doubt I have a chance though. Aelita…
I move onto a station about how to find water compared to your terrain. I wish I had this a long time ago. Could have been useful. I was interested to find that if there are mountains, between them would most likely have water.
There was a tap on my back. "I saw you staring over at the ladies." It was the annoying eastern guy. "You see the one walking around? Stay away. I plan to make her mine."
"Uh, didn't she diss you and tell you she had a bf on the train?" news spread quickly.
"Oh, she's playing hard to get." He had a glint in his crazy eyes. I think he thought I was looking at the girl he likes. Ha. No way.
"Um dude. What do you want?"
"An alliance." I looked at me creepy. I don't want an alliance. Especially not with this creep.
"I work on my own. Sorry." I turned back to my work. There is also water on downhill slops. That's good. Don't drink water without purifying it. Good info here. I turned back to look at every one. The eastern guy was coming back.
"I forgot to introduce myself, I am so sorry. My name is Sadd." His scheming eyes had a plan.
"My names Odilio."
"If you change your mind. Don't be afraid to ask."
Sadd:
Lilas. She totally wants me. I know she does. She must ramble off nonstop about Gervais to make me want he with me even more.
My father is the one who brought us together. The only Pakistani member on the council. He doesn't care much for me. Only my dead mother and sister. I don't care though. Back in Pakistan I learned to use a gun. I got quite good at it but wasn't in need when we came to France. I saw a station that would fit my needs. I pick up the deadly projectile. Ah. Beautiful. The harpoon was a meter long and the edge would cut you just by sliding your finger ever so carefully down its edge.
I wonder what all these weapons are for. I hope Odilio changes his mind. I have already spoken to Povera. She has agreed. That kid is so skinny! She told me about herpast. She has 6 other siblings and thinks she can win and give her family luxury. Got to love those Greeks.
I see Odilio sneaking a glance at Lilas again. I will teach him soon enough in the games not to mess with me. If he sides with me I will probably still turn on him. Yes that sound great. Julie is a nice girl and all too. If I can't have Lilas she is my next choice.
