After Marcus's long absence, a hand appeared over the edge of the floating bases's eastern wall. Marcus, having no wings, was forced to climb back up the rope. Needless to say, decending with a rope is much easier than climbing a rope. He pulled himself over the ledge, looked around, and groaned. "Damn it...where'd everyone go!?"

Eventually, Sydney found her way outside where the rope to the ground could be found. Attempting to stretch one more, Syd was interrupted at the sound of someone climbing up the rope. Looking over, she noticed Marcus. 'Oh great... The one person I want to see right now...' she thought to herself sarcastically. Being who he was as a womanizer, Sydney constantly found Marcus to be annoying.

Seeing yet another beautiful girl, Marcus went into "player mode". Living the more formative years of your life Hell warped a kid. "Hey there cutie...wanna go get a drink?"

Trying to keep herself from smacking Marcus over the head, Sydney heaved a sigh. Closing her eyes, she placed a hand on her forehead to steady her rising annoyance. She hadn't even spent five minutes with Marcus and already she wanted to kill him. "Let me see... How about... No." Syd finally answered in her blunt way of turning Marcus down.

Ouch, shot down...ah well. He sighed a little. "Damn, well where'd the others go then? It's boring as hell up here"

"How would I know?" Sydney replied. She was honestly relieved that Marcus wasn't going to keep pestering her, but didn't let it show. "I've been in my room for the past couple of days, Marcus." She rolled her eyes at Marcus. Honestly, he could be so stupid sometimes. Sydney wandered over to the edge where the rope to the ground was. Looking down she contemplated actually just going out on her own for a bit.

(( Alrighty then. Since I am the only one active in this thread, I'll post again and have Syd wander off on her own. sweatdrop ))
Without a second thought, Sydney decided she might as well go out. Mostly because it was boring with no one around right now. But also because she had been forced to stay in her room for three days. Summoning her wings to her back, Sydney soon began hovering over the edge of the base. Then, she slowly dropped down to the ground below, slowing her decent to a safe landing by using her extended wings. Once her feet touched the ground though, the Cambion's wings were gone from sight. Syd figured she might as well walk given that she wasn't capable of flying as long as a regular Angel was.

Why was it that she always got left to do the boring stuff? And especially with a guy like Marcus who was probably only interested in her because of how she looked anyway. But that was besides the point. Being left behind was not something that Syd particularly liked. Was it because everyone else was older than her and they thought she would just get in the way if she were any where near a mission that was important? If that was so, then that was a stupid reason!

Sin rocketed through the portal. His body had materialized while he was switching realms. He fell onto his stomach, and wept for a quite a bit. He curled up and gripped at his sides. They were on fire. He had lost control. Memories of his past started to flood his mind. He gripped at his head, shaking it. No...No. His mind screamed. Make this go away!

Indrid emerged through the portal. Landing on sin. He looked down at the man, he was visibly disturbed. "Oh crap. Hang on." he assured him and went to find Sydney. He found her wandering around. What was she doing? He dismissed it. "Syd, you got to take a look at Sin, he's freaking out!"

J'valia came tumbling through the portal, and steadied herself quickly. She saw Sin on the ground. She rushed forward and leaned in the snow.
Closing her eyes, she concentrated. The snow faded out, and grass took its place. At least this way he wouldn't feeze. "Sin... Sin... Ignore it sin, ignore it. The horde screws with us... plays with our mind. Makes us hate ourselves......" She paused, looking for a reaction. "... That doesn't mean anything about who you are now Sin... And now is all that matters."

The entire time she was thinking to herself, Sydney hardly noticed how far she had gotten from the base by now. But she wouldn't realize it for a while because she heard a familiar voice call out her name. She turned towards the voice and found it to be Indrid. "Indrid! Where the heck did you disappear to?" she asked, but in mid-sentence stopped as the nephillim explained about Sin's condition. "What!?" Syd demanded, "Take me to where he is." Sometimes, Syd hated the fact that she was the only one among their side who was a healer at any level.

Sin looked up and saw J'valia's face. His eyes softened and returned to their gray hue as he saw her caring face. But he felt vulnerable...ashamed...monstrous even. He got up and walked a few steps away. "It's not the horde that worries me. Nor should it be what worries you." He pulled the hood up on his cloak and abruptly disappeared. His form appeared quite a ways away then disappeared again. He teleported all the way back to the base. At the base gates, a guard had approached him, and put a hand on his shoulder. Sin pushed him off and walked inside. Then, he teleported to the Server Room. He closed the door, went around a huge main server and found his small nook of a room where he slept. He climbed in his cot and lay staring at the ceiling. Then, he realized his door was open, and slammed it shut. He didn't want anyone to see him like this...to see him this vulnerable...this monstrous abomination.
