[COLOR=firebrick][SIZE=1][i]The wind rustled through his hair and the air smelled faintly of citrus, it was from the orange tree in front of the house. Brant grinned with another long thin piece of grass in his mouth, this time he was sitting on top of his pure white horse, he looked off towards the mountains and saw that a rain storm was coming, he was thankful for the rain, it would help the trees grow and give the cattle more food to eat.

As he turned his horse back towards the barn his son came galloping up on his black horse and fell into stride along Brant.[/i]

"Hey daddy, do you think we'll get a lot of rain tonight?" [i]His son asked inoccently, Brant grinned and ruffled his son's hair, he nodded quietly. Just as they got the horses into the stable part of the barn it began to pour down rain. Brant squatted down and his son leaped up onto his back and Brant piggybacked his son to the house as fast as he could run, Satell was sitting in her normal chair with a blanket that she was working on in her lap, she grinned and flicked a stand of her hair out of her face.[/i]

"You want me to start up supper?" [i]Brant asked, Satell nodded.[/i]

"First you two clean up and then Brant I'll help you with the dinner, but then after that you're going to do a lot of work around the house seeing as how every day you're out with the cattle, tomorrow I'm going out and working the cattle." [i]Brant blushed bright red and hurried into the house to clean up..

Suddenly Brant awoke to a small flicker of light, there was a coroner's team and Satell was standing over a dead body.[/i]

"What the hell's going on here?!" [i]Brant yelled, this obviously caught Satell's attention.[/i]

"Someone decided to pay us a visit with a few weapons."[/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]The two watched the bag quietly move out of the room, carried by the thoroughly disgusted coroners. Both of which were giving her a look that clearly stated "You are the embodiment of evil, I hate you, too bad you pay my salary...." Satell thanked them in a rather distracted voice and turned back to Brant.[/i]

"But we're fine now."

"Did you just leave a door open or something?"

"Apparently. Then again, this is a free floor, the doctor said anyone could visit. I suppose they took him literally."

".....you could've been shot."

"So could you. We were both asleep."

[i]Her voice was soothing, and he fell asleep once more, but before he did he grasped her hand and looked into her eyes.[/i]

"I had a dream about you. .....you were.... ...."

[i]Her eyes registered no comprihension, she couldn't read his mind.[/i]

"Very beautiful.... And we were..."

"Married?"

[i]Brant caught his breath and squeezed her hand. She smiled at him, the smile that lit up the room, and held his hands in hers. He was reassured, and closed his eyes, needing to say nothing else.[/i][/COLOR]

[COLOR=firebrick][SIZE=1][i]This time Brant was in the house in front of the fireplace with his son in his room and Satell reading him a story. Brant was laying on the couch just watching the fire crackle about on the wood and the rain drops pittering against the window, it was his home. He breathed in deeply and let out a long sigh, it was great to be in his cozy little house. It was great to be here.

As he looked around he saw photographs of him and Satell on their wedding day, standing right in front of this house, it was a beautiful day then, the sun was out, everyone they knew was there.

As Satell walked down the stairwell Brant breathed in again and sighed, it was good to be home, it was even better when Satell sat down next to him and he rested his head in her lap and they both fell asleep.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/i]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]And when he woke up, it was a dream partially come true. They were out of the hospital, in her room, the door closed, her eyes half shut as well. He looked up at her, and she smiled back at him, her earrings clinking against each other gently.[/i]

"Good evening."

"Where are we?"

"My flat. It's the safehouse....for me."

"What about the IV?"

"You mean this?"

[i]She leaned over and tapped the side of his arm. He didn't flinch, and she adjusted the wire connecting it to the fluids.[/i]

"I'm kinda...hungry."

"We anticipated that."[/COLOR]

[Domon]

[COLOR=firebrick][SIZE=1][i]Brant still looked up into Satell's caring eyes, she was tired, as was he. He yawned dully and sat up somewhat, he was still woozy, but he was back in his regular clothes, which had been cleaned, the blood no longer there, but the memories were.

The wild demon dog bounding up, grabbing Brant's arm in its mouth, biting down through muscle, nerve, etc.

Brant shook the thought out of his mind as he went to stand up but he then slid back down to his knees, he was extremely hungry.[/i]

"What do you have to eat?" [i]Brant said a little meekly as he blushed. Satell grinned and got up from the bed and started to whip something up, after a few minutes she came back with a beef soup of some kind, it was great. After devouring most of the soup down Brant felt a little stronger, though he was still not in fighting condition, he propped his head back onto the pillow and fell asleep once again, this time he would dream of how he would finish the night with Satell.[/i][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]She smiled softly and cleaned up the dishes. As usual, she had inhaled her meal before he had woken up and spent the rest of the time dusting her already sterile room. There was no real reason to do it, nor was there a reason for her to sit on the now communal bed and start combing her hair. Using the olive wood brush she had been given years ago, she began to untangle the various kinks and knots created quite spectacularly by serious stress and hard work.

Within the hour she had it shinning and shimmering once more. Without a qualm she braided the majority of it up again in small braids, twisting them around to contour to the shape of her head smoothly. Her apperance was once more, hip. Acceptable in the eyes of others, her own style showing through quite perfeclty. She loved it. He was at peace once more, and that was good.

Nobody would attack her through the double reinforced doors. This was very good. Safety at last.[/i]

"The mighty three, our protection be. Encircling, thou art our King."[/COLOR]

[Domon]

[COLOR=firebrick][SIZE=1][i]He was back in the living room with her, his head still resting on her lap, he looked up again, she was sleeping quietly and the fire in the fireplace had died out to mere embers and the rain had slowed to a mere shower, the water now just pitter pattering against the glass of the windows and the slow majestic rumble of thunder made Brant feel more like he was home on Earth, but he knew he was on Mars. As he stood up he looked around some more, he picked up a soft warm quilt his grandmother had sent him and Satell for their first Christmas together, Brant had wanted to go back to earth and visit her but there had been a large scam with the cruise line starships at that point in time, all Brant could do was open up a live vid link with her and the three of them conversed, she'd died later on that year. That time Brant and Satell had taken a flight directly to Earth and made the arrangements to bury her.

He draped the quilt about Satell and he went into their room and got a cover blanket and curled up in the armchair they had sitting in the room, and he fell asleep again.

Brant snapped awake, but this time he was awake in Satell's flathouse, and she was already awake, that was established when he saw her clothes in a pile and the sound of a shower eminating from the direction of the bathroom. He stood up and started to walk around a little more, he wanted to bug the docter if he could get rid of the IV unit, he felt fine, he just needed to get out and do some target practice or physical therapy or something.[/i][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]She came out, drying her body off with the towel, rubbing vigoriously....it was a little cold. Brant looked over and his jaw slowly hit the floor. .... She looked fantastic, fresh out of the shower, dripping water onto the tile floor, her hair tied back so prettily in braids. Satell walked over to him and quietly undid the tape and drew out the needles with her own hands. She didn't flinch from the slight ammount of lbood and fluid welling up, but instead wiped it away with a cloth and bandaged his hand.[/i]

"There..."

"How did you know it was...what I wanted?"

"I'm a mind reader...so sue me."

[i]She smiled at him, while he stared at her naked body, then looked into her eyes once more. She grinned at him and drew on her panties and slipped into her nightdress for the first time in a month. Purple satin falling over her body...butterfly embroidery. He was in love.[/i][/COLOR]

[Domon]

[COLOR=firebrick][SIZE=1][i]Brant grinned, he was tired, but he needed to move around. Satell slid down onto her bed and started to drift off as Brant walked out the door, he knew that he shouldn't but it was the only thing he could think of doing.

As he stepped out into the main part of the town he looked up and saw the many moons of Mars, it may look like and feel like Earth but the moons gave this place away, he ran his left hand through his hair and walked out to a hill and sat on a rock that jutted out, this place was peaceful, but it was extremely violent, this place needed order instead of some sort of anarchy.

The sun rose quietly and the sky turned a beautiful pink, then purple, and then the very top of the sky that was not being kissed by the sun was a deep dark blue. It was wonderful, a soft wind wisped through and brushed against his skin and ruffled his hair, his eyes glistened as he found himself smiling. He stood back up and yawned, as he did so he treaded quietly back into the town.[/i][/SIZE][/COLOR]

[Raiha]

[COLOR=royalblue][i]She raised her hand up to turn out the lights, when a swift vision flashed through her brain.

The pounding in her ears was deafening, but she could barely breathe.

The dogs were surrounding her, Scendelon was down, struggling, but still down. She couldn't see Brant, blood was pouring in her eyes, clouding her vision, she knew she wasn't screaming. Her throat was constricted, she couldn't speak, she couldn't breathe, and finally she gasped out the words.[/i]

"Chi-Rho, aid me now!"

[i]The vision faded instantly and she was left shaken and panting.[/i]

"Damnit...."[/COLOR]
