and now....a brief interlude...
* * *
We said nothing for a bit. Then Benny broke the silence.
“Do you know why I go out on scavenger missions?”
“No. Is it for the fun and adventure?”
“No. Its because I want to see the sun.”
I looked at her. At her glassy green eyes. She nodded.
“Yup. Something as simple and as selfish as that. I'm sick and tired of being stuck in the darkness. I want to see a clear colony day again. I want to see Blue skies and white clouds. But I can’t do that by myself. I can’t fix the mirrors. I can’t power the generators. We need to be free of the HCA and get this colony fixed. Or we need to be able to move out. But we cant do that stuck here. We need people like you willing to fight on behalf of us. To fight for peace.”
I thought of the orphans at Eden, and the Solar Swashbucklers, fighting so that others didn’t have to. Fighting so that we could experience a lazy peaceful day again. There was nothing wrong with that was there? Some might even have called it a noble cause.
“If I had a suit like this, I’d probably use it to fight. I might get killed, or I might put this colony at risk.” She looked off into the distance “But if at the end of it, I could spend one day here in the sun, then I’d put it all on the line. For something as selfish as that.”
I took a long hard look at her. This girl, about the same age as I, more willing to go out to fight for a simple thing such as daylight, than I was willing to risk my life for peace in the whole Earth Sphere because I was scared of getting hurt again.
“But…” She said, looking back at me. “I don’t have a suit. I don’t have a means to fight. I just have to do the best I can.”
I knew she wanted to ask me if I could fight for her, for her colony, for her dream. But she didn’t. She just stared off into the night sky, a shell of the confidant tomboy I had met hours earlier.
“I’d do anything just to see the blue sky again. Maybe all you can do is fight. But sometimes, that’s all that is needed.
Someone willing to fight. And something worth fighting for.”
We sat in silence for a long time.
“You’re awfully strong Benny.” I said eventually. When I did not receive a reply, I turned to look at her. Her head was drooping. Eventually she fell, her head hitting my shoulder. I sighed and pulled the towel around her shoulders.
“Perhaps I should be stronger too.”

Got a day off today. im going to see if i have been paid (for the first time since June) and then i might go x-mas shopping. ^^
Im also going to this thing this afternoon where i go back to my old school and pick up the certificates for te examination, and might see my old friends again. which could be cool.
and Tonight i have cadets. I have to help plan and set up the cadet xmas party which is on Monday. I aint gonna go to the party tho, cuz its normally 5H17 and boring. Even when we do plan fun stuff, it normally turns out L4M3.
