As an old friend told me "The Enemy of my enemy is my friend". It's all so much more simple than it seems... Betrayed by my old boss, mentor, and ... friend, Things have changed.

'Funny, that's the exact same phrase dragonfeatures used earlier. Although I wouldn't have called it a betrayal,' Nalini replied, speaking tentatively, aware she was dreading on dangerous territory. 'Unless there's still one or two things that I don't know.'

I gave all I had to that man... and when after all that, he not only refused my feelings, but continued to use my strength, and then fall for you... I was betrayed.

'...I guess you have a point. Not that he kept using your strength for long, though. And let me just say, I didn't do a damn thing to instigate his, uh...affections,' Nalini hastily added. 'Relationships at work? With the boss? Nice and uncomfortable!'

There was a war some years back, and he and I were thought to be the only survivors, at least, He was. As my life was slipping away, he whispered words of affection into my ear, before I lost my body... When I returned to the facility a year later, as the ghost I had become, i had developed an appreciation for all he'd done, and fell in love. It was my love that saved him, when Koth took to Terra, and nearly killed him as well.
It is only just recent, that I find it was all a lie... soft words to a dying friend...

Nalini lowered her eyes to the floor, unsure of what to do or say.
'I, uh...heh. I'm...sorry about all of that,' she uncomfortably mumbled.

You were not there, you have nothing to apologize for dear. And anything after me is not of my concern. All I care is that he pays for all he's done.
You and me, we need to stick together.

'That might be difficult, considering it looks like he might be dead,' Nalini blankly said. Hell, she told Koth, so why not fill Raven in as well?

She walks out of the shadows. "She yawns."

'You didn't see the damage to the portal in the gate room,' Nalini reminded her. 'How can you be so sure?'

Being dead already myself, I have very close ties to those who cross over. He felt very close a moment, and then... He wasn't. He is alive, somewhere.

'Somewhere...you mean he is trapped in MOTAS?' Nalini thought hard.

No... He would have released himself from there by now. Using his own powers, he would have been reborn as MOTAS stabilized, and he would have left. I am not sure where to though.
*Feeling nervous of the others around her, Raven put her mask back to her face*
