Kro-Steele-Down
The Guardian
But not an angle
But not an angle
What I want, I will work for
What I need, I will fight for
What I love, I will die for

Kro contemplated on answering Cael's ceaseless questioning, but eventually decided it best to ignore him entirely. It was turning into a Little Shop of Horrors really quickly. It took a great amount of strength to keep his mouth shut when the boy asked what the Marine Corps was. That was almost an offensive question to an egotistical Marine such as himself. As he was biting his tongue he heard an ever approaching noise turn into the hallway he was currently in. With out a second thought he set the boy down and quickly pulled the ka-barr out of its sheath, standing in a boxing style stance between the boy and the noise.
His heart beat fast as he tried to asses the situation. Had he really just survived a space shuttle crash just to be killed by one of the animals that had accompanied them aboard the arch? As the sound grew louder he readied himself for the worst ,but just as began to make his first strike the animal stopped and stared. He would have referred to the phenomenon as a deer in the head lights, but it literally was a fawn but instead of lights, it gazed briefly at the marine and his padawan before quickly turning its tail and fleeing back into the darkness of the ship.
Kro breathed out heavily, his heart trying to settle back in his chest. "Stupid mother f-.." he mumbled to himself, catching his words before they could escape his mouth. It was in this brief moment of rebuilding composer that the sounds of gunshots resonated in the halls of the ship. "God damn it kid, we gotta get a move on," Kro said sliding the knife into his belt, tightening it around his waist as he did. He knelt down,picked the child up once more, and started really moving in the direction of the cargo hold.
