Sniper got home late and brought the dead ghost to the speaker. She went the towers medic and got her wounds soder up and patched up, left for her apartment and opened her door and threw her stuff on one of her chairs and went to the shower her back ached after her fight with all those hive. She hated them the most they stunk they were like walking rotting corpses with how thin they were and that they fed off stuff from the ground.

She stood in the shower for a while to the point the timer went off and the water was turned off even if she was a guardian they all had to share the water supply. She sighed and got out when she heard her door bell ring.

"I'll be right there." She shouted down the hallway. She threw on her underwear, one of her overly large hoodies so long that it was at her knees, a pair of blue and black striped leggings, and walked to her door. She reached it and opened the door to see aria standing there.

Sniper wasn't in the mood even if she did like aria.

"What do you want aria I'm tired."

Aria cleared her throat it sounded like a metallic rasp.

"Hello Mrs. Sniper mind if I come in?"

"You can just call me sniper and yea you can, but like I said im tired so if I fall asleep on you then sorry."

"Very well."

Sniper walked toward her couch and flopped down on to it. Aria hung up her coat on one oh her coat hangers, aria was wearing a black tank top with baggy then sat on one of sniper chairs, with one of her free arms she tried to find the remote to her TV, she flipped it on and tossed it to aria.

"here you can watch what you like I'm guna try to get the kinks out of my body."

"Are you in pain sniper?"

Sniper moaned loudly as if to answer.

"yes I am one o those wizards picked me up and threw me around the room, so I shot it with my golden gun. I think it messed up my back it hurts aria"

Aria sighed and looked over at her friend. She got up and sat on sniper.

"THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING ARIA GET OFF ME!"

"do you want the pain to go away cuz if you do lie still."

Sniper stopped squirming and complied.

"now you must tell me where the pain is greatest."

"well its mainly in the middle of my back to the thighs."

"all right ill start with the back."

Sniper was in bliss. Aria was like a planet of marshmallows ready for her to eat her hands pushed on all of her sore spots and just relaxing like this was so comfterble.

"How's that feel sniper?" aria quipped.

"Oh my god you're like a goddess with those hands, how are you so good aria?"

"Thank you for the complement, and I've had a lot of practice and many years to perfect my technique. I've been awakened for about 200 years now. I've only recently became a guardian."

Sniper turned her head a bit to look at aria, the grey painted exo had a slight smile on her face it was like she was lost in a memory ,for some reason this made sniper feel slightly guilty and angry.

"are you alright aria? You look like your guna burst into tears."

Aria snapped back to reality. "Oh yeah I'm fine was just thinking of someone very dear to me, I'm actually looking for them I hope I find them soon."

"who are they I can help you find them."

"oh no you don't have to- AHH!"

Sniper bolted up from her spot on the couch nearly flipping aria over the edge.

"NO! I want to help you I want to see you smile and bring the special someone back to you and I will do every think in my power to help you find them were ever they are."

Aria was stunned, but she smiled and started to ball her eyes out and she flung herself onto sniper. Shocked by this she just held her as she cried. After a few minutes she regained herself a bit, her grey face went red with embarrassment.

"Sorry I shouldn't have done that, ill go."

Aria got up to leave when sniper stopped her.

"hey its fine I'm a nice girl, why don't you stay at my place tonight ill pop in a movie and we can something like a sleep over what do you say?"

Sniper had a huge grin on her sapphire painted face, her azure eyes waited for an answer. Aria just smiled back and agreed.

"Let me go get my things I'll be right back." With that aria went to her own apartment to gather whatever she needed. Sniper in the mean time just started to jump up and down wit joy she was so happy she could die. Aria returned after a bit she had a pillow and was in a pair of grey shorts and her black tank top. Sniper ran to her couch and pulled a lever an the bottom of the couch flipped into a bed.

"So when you're ready to sleep my couch dose this."

The two were in front of the TV watching an action movie; both looked with anticipation as the large muscular human went toe to toe with an alien with a large amount of dred locks, after that they watched one about a research team found an abandon ship and were figuring out what was going on.. then came the last movie for the night the two were growing tired with each passing moment, sniper decided to shut her TV off as she looked at the time, it was 3 am she had at least one day off so she let it slide.

She got up and stretched her limbs and went to the fridge and grabbed a bottle of water and chugged it down. Then went back to the couch grabbed arias things and put them on another chair in her living room, she was going to go to her room when something gold caught her eye. It was a golden locket that must have fallen out of arias robes she picked it up and thought about opening it to see what may be inside but it felt wrong. She couldn't place it but ever time she's near aria everything she wants to do feels off. Sniper put the locket on top of the robes and made her way to her room when she heard aria mutter something. Sniper listened for a second.

"Please don't go, come back, I don't want to be all alone, why didn't you take me with you" aria muttered in her sleep.

Her blue eyes it up the area around aria, she was tossing and turning that's when it struck her she was having a nightmare. Sniper felt a pit forming in her stomach she couldn't stand seeing her scared or in pain so she did the thing that felt right, she climbed into the bed with her and just held her. Aria rolled over and nestled into sniper still stuck in the nightmare, sniper just held her and spoke softly telling her that everything will be fine. Eventually aria stopped shacking and sniper hoped her dreams were good ones. Despite what her mind was saying to stay up her body didn't want to compile she drifted off into slumber with aria still in her arms.

Aria opened her emerald eyes and sleepily looked around and saw sniper holding her close, she didn't say anything she just smiled and drifted off into slumber thinking.

I've found you once again.
