A Rebirth

*i guess it is then*

*Meanwhile Aequitas' squad arrives back after several days of intense fighting. The first thing he does is go see if Anna is okay.*

*skip to the scans being done?*

Anna's in a hospital bed i guess

*The data from the scans is complied and studied...and they learn the skitarii are wearing helmets. Which is a problem, cause they haven't allocated food for them yet.*
_________________________________________________

*Aequitas talks with the doctors to make sure she's awake.*

*rightyo....wat happens to the prisoner then*

she is

*A surgeon and engineer approach her and begin to examine her helmet.*
________________________________________________

*He goes over to her.*

Aequitas: Hey...How are you feeling?

she tries to pull away, scared

she smiles
"better than expected. good to see you"

*The restraints prevent that. They don't seem to be trying to hurt her.*
_________________________________________

Aequitas: It's good to see you as well....And it's good to hear that you weren't hurt that badly.

"wh-what are you..."

"thanks. glad I could keep them from skewering you"

*They seem to be trying to remove her helmet without hurting her.*
__________________________________________________

Aequitas: That....That was very brave of you. Thanks...

"...don't ignore me...."

"I'd do it again a thousand times"

Engineer: Trying to remove your helmet.
_____________________________________________________

Aequitas: Let's hope that won't be necessary. *Slight smile.*

"....you can just...pull it off"

she smiles back
and a doctor walks in

*They do so.*
________________________________________

*He looks at the doctor.*

Aequitas: So, how long until she's back on her feet?

outwardly she looks pretty human. eyeballs are cybernetic. rest is all internal. she's also got marks from where she were crying when they cut her open

Doctor: should only be a week at most...but there is another thing

Engineer: Fuck....We were way off....
_____________________________________________

Aequitas: What other thing?

"you....think?"

"....its.....bad news"

Engineer: Hey, from what we knew of the AdMech we didn't know you were a person.
____________________________________

Aequitas: Um....Is this something where doctor-patient confidentiality is in effect? If so, I'll leave if you need me to.

"....rub it in...why don't you"

"you can stay if she wants you to"
Anna:...yeah i'd like that

Meanwile the chaos forces have spread far and wide creating small cells in each planet sending information back to the main force and slowly building their numbers as people are swayed over to a true cause

Surgeon: Ignore him. Yutegans are blunter than a dull scalpel.
_________________________________________________

Aequitas: Um...Alright. What's the matter?

"oh..."

"...the blade had some kind of sonic ability which allowed it to pass through your armour so easily. this combined with the location of the stab...your reproductive organs are irreversibly damaged. I'm sorry but it is now impossible for you to become pregnant"
Anna:....I....

*The doctor examines, making sure she's fine physically.*
___________________________________

Aequitas:..........That...There has to be a way to fix that. We can grow new organs for people!

she is

"i'm afraid its not that simple in this case, a womb is simply too complex an organ to regrow and have it work perfectly. It could risk both her life and the lives of any children she has"

*Eventually, she is released from the restraints, given a prisoners jumpsuit to cover herself, and is taken to a cell.*
_________________________________________________

Aequitas:..........................

OOC dark magic tk the rescue

she stays quiet
its obvious she's still scared at least a little

"i'm sorry"
Anna:...thankyou for...telling me this...

*Eventually, a trio of powered armored soldiers come to her cell and open it.*

Trooper: Out of the cell.
_______________________________________________

Aequitas: Just...*Sighs* Well, it could have been much, much worse.

"why? where are you taking me?"

Anna: hey. look at me.

*They don't answer her.*
___________________________________________

*He does so.*

"....um..." *she edges away nervously*

she puts a hand on his shoulder "*quietly* It was worth it to save you"

Trooper: Get out of the cell. Now. We're authorized to use force if needed.
_________________________________________________

Aequitas:.........*He clearly doesn't know how to respond to that.*

"where are you taking me?"

she smiles, trying to put on a brave face

Trooper: Get. Out. Of. The. Cell.
__________________________________________

*Surprisingly, he hugs her.*

"...don't hurt me"

she hugs back, although she's admittedly shocked

Trooper: If you don't want us to hurt you, get out of the cell.
________________________________________

Aequitas: I'm just glad you're alive.

she slowly, timidly approaches

"and i'm glad you are"

*They wait until she's out of the cell, and then take up a formation that would prevent her from escaping. They then start to lead her...somewhere.*
__________________________________

Aequitas: Thanks....By the way, Riggs got you the money he owed you. Just thought you may want to know. *chuckles*

she reluctantly follows, quite scared of this whole situation

"finally"

*They eventually take her to what is undoubtedly a questioning room.*
__________________________________________

Aequitas: Yeah...Kind of wondering who he scammed to get it though.

she reluctantly enters...rubbing her arm nervously

she laughs at that

*There's a chair and a table, with the chair facing the door.*
__________________________________________

Aequitas: You need me to get you anything?

she looks to see if the guards are there...and is surprised she isnt handcuffed right now

"i'll be fine. just...dont die out there before i can get out"

*They are there...which is probably why she isn't handcuffed. They're in powered armor. She's no threat to them. They take up positions in the corners of the room.*
__________________________________________________

Aequitas: I'll be fine, don't worry about me.

she stands there....trembling a little

she nods

*A little while later, the Yutegan commander from earlier arrives.*
__________________________________________

Aequitas: Get well soon, Anna. The entire squad is missing you.

"oh....hello" *she sits*

"Will do"

Commander: You are a skitarii alpha, correct?
____________________________________________

*He gives her a quick hug before getting up to leave.*

Dargoth:perhaps there is a way (a strange doctor walks in after her friend leaves)(looks like a doctor)

"yeah...the one they tried to cut open"

Anna:...pardon?

Dargoth: you see unlike most doctors i have a way to make it like nothing ever happend. would you like that?
