Welcome to Gaia! ::

He stared in horror as the truck flipped. "AKO!!!" he yelled, turning back, in fury to the woman. "Die!!!" he yelled, ignoring the buck knife. He dropped his gun and began kicking wildly at her, first at her legs, and then at her torso.

Ako's fists clenched until blood flowed where his nails dug into the skin. A glint of light caught his eye. It was the scope of his father's rifle, the only thing he had to remember his parents by. He gently set his brother down and went to the gun, picking it out from under the junk piled on top of it. With out thinking, he raised the gun to his shoulder and knelt to one knee. He took aim at the figure on the pile and saw that it was a woman. "b***h." He muttered as he chambered a round. He wanted her to pay. He took aim at her leg, held his breath, and fired. One of the few bullets they still had left the barrel, it's course from the lovingly maintained gun straight and true.

Ryu laughed, not seeing the knife. "Oh come on-" he began, falling limp as she hit him. "Dammit!!" he yelled, writhing from the shock slightly.

Ako chambered another round, but decided not to waste the bullet. He slung the rifle onto his back and turned back to his little brother. The small body laid lifeless in the dust, the wind still ruffling his hair. Tears filled Ako's eyes as he walked past his brother back to the truck. He used the strength of his anger to push the truck onto it's side, where the weight of the motor and batteries set low on it's frame did the rest of the work and set it back on it's three remaining wheels.

He brought his brother back to the truck and set him gently in the passenger seat, which was now permanently reclined, it's hinges broken. The shattered solar panel on the roof still blocked the boy from the sun, and the over-sized goggles still protected his eyes from the grit blown in the sand.

Ako turned away and started walking towards the pile and the woman, forgetting in the moment that he'd seen her fighting with another Outcast. He picked up his hunting knife and opened the bonesaw blade, intent on slitting the woman's throat. He was sure that she had killed his brother, and knew that she had intended to kill them both.

Ryu coughed, flipping the Scorpion the bird. "Screw you, b***h!" he groaned, standing slowly. He was still shaken up from the blow, so he couldn't really hurt her. He felt pathetic.

Her body stiffens slightly at the sudden feel of cold metal against her throat but after a bit she merely smirks in a nervous manner before looking back at him a slightly. "Im a Scorpian, its my job to kill or be killed by my kind so get used to it, Outcast boy."

"If your going to kill me then you better hurry it up." Her tone wasnt one of fear but one of annoyance. As a Scorpian she was taught to kill or be killed by yur own kind for being to weak or die in a battle. She didnt understand why he was hesitiating and thought he was trying to phsyc her out.

The young girl stumbled a steps, more blood oozing from her leg as she pulled herself up to stand straight and lifts her goggles from her face and places them on her head. Now that her eyes werent covered anymore she turned her head to look back at the man that held the knife to herself, her green eyes boring into him. "Psh, you Outcasts are all the same." With that she pulled her goggles back down over her eyes and proceeded to limp away.
