Quill 5 act 2 leaving
"So, why did you ask me to come?" Roxane asked. Cyrano fingered his jacket collar, "I have to tell you something." He said. Roxane waited. Well. I'm not sure if you know this but, I'm in the military."
"That's not a problem." Roxane said.
"Well I learned that I have a short mission and I'll be away for a few weeks."
"Will you come back?" Roxane's questioning eyes searched Cyrara's.
"Definitely," he nodded spying a far-off figure, "I'll be ok because-" The clock struck. "-I have to go. I'll write to you." Cyrara gave Roxane a quick hug and hurried off to the figure. "Let's go. Put on your anti-barrier." Bretete said in greeting. Cyrara glanced back and Roxane waved.
"Right. The space ship is near the invading squad's house so we'll have to use our hover crafts."
"Welcome Cyrara. This is of short notice but you're the only active member near planet arras."
Cyrara spoke through the communicator, "It's not a problem sir. 'Just need to go in and destroy the vipers."
"That's basically it. Bretete did the briefing well. You should be arriving soon. Your company should arrive when you two get there. Good luck!"
The communicator cut off.
"So, did you tell her?" Bretete glanced over at Cyrara.
"Well, I'm sure she understood where I was going…Cyrara replied."
"I thought you said what you wanted to say! I mean, you hugged her and all."
Cyrara turned around. "…We've got to develop a strategy. Let's pull out some maps."
The next day Cyrara woke up to a shock to see the stars and planets zooming past. "Why are we- right! We got sent on a mission…. Bretete, we're approaching in an hour." He said. Bretete rolled over, "Not now…"
"He loves sleep as much as a desert spade-foot toad." Cyrara sighed. He took out a paper and pen. He wrote for a while and folded it up. Seeing that Bretete was still asleep, Cyrara threw some water on him. "Hey!" Bretete jumped out of bed.
Cyrara sealed the letter and dropped it in the slot on-board. "Awake now?"
"You bet. How much time till we get to Arras?"
"About fifteen minutes till- woah!"
Cyrara grabbed hold of a nearby handhold and grabbed on to Bretete. The ship rocked back and forth from the force of the impact.
Cyrara ran over to the window, "What the- a ship! Bretete, lets use a diversionary tactic!" Bretete and Cyrara rushed to their stations.
"Ok I have it in sight," Bretete typed away, "Firing launchers one, two and…three!" Three flashes of red light shot out at the enemy ship. The ship dodged the beams. "It'll take more than your poor aim foolish keronians!" A viper's voice taunted. Split seconds later, the viper ship blew up.
"Nice Cyrara!" Bretete cheered.
"That worked well. I'm going to come on again." Cyrara replied. Bretete opened the door and Cyrara walked in. "Now we have to expect Vipers knowing that we're there so an ambush is off." He said.
"I know." Bretete acknowledged.
"I've been thinking," Cyrara said, "When the rest of the company comes, we can divide into two groups for more flexibility."
"Sounds like a good idea! Awesome job on the viper ship by the way." A voice said.
