“I hate this part.”224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9kGvzEH4M
“Aw come on Deena;” said the one assigned to go first, “it is as I always say.224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6Pw7FIcON
Sometimes there is nothing you can do. You just have to accept it as it is.”224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gUvnoWYsS
“Rhim!”224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡts4MUt6MTl
“Hope all of you brought your raincoats...” he added before taking that first jump.224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHou4qElVp
“Captain, I will be waiting at the extraction point by sunrise...” a small pause and a224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPyQa6FMKB
bit of silence from that box, not even the slightest static. “See yous’ all there.”224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDp7WNeCOy
“See you there...” the captain jumped off last, he dived straight into that storm much224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CtGZutGtO
like the four before him and one by one Sheiska saw them disappear into those thick224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJc59avLYN
clouds, all of them impressively connected by rumbling thunder...224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5GZMomP58
Sepia like clouds as massive as anyone can ever hope to find that always carry224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVPY89fjPC
with them this constant anger, this hatred towards something that they always admit224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdo2QNLP6nj
with unceasing displays of energy. Constant and even more impressive discharges of224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKx6IwOyAQ5
lightning and rain that knows no drought! Standing against all this, are now five224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs452dkcxYM
minuscule and darkened figures freefalling with only the closest lightning flash now224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZUVb3LVPa
and then being capable of revealing more of them. Despite it all, they seem calm, even224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfv9Oqldsqp
gracious at times, as they keep on descending, their bodies swinging and dodging any224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDwPTacyfQ
danger heading their way. Their masks protect them from any outside sound and the224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyWi7aINZ0T
technology within them, albeit struggling, is enough to get the word around.224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj4IYzbzTup
“Alright... wait for my mark...” the captain speaks to all of them “Any minute now...”224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnEmIVWb7Vq
All five of them are now dropping like they did so many times before and their224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVjgEbmMK0
leader looks back to get a quick glimpse at the Bolt Lander one last time. He stared224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRjKYajLTk
at it for a moment, only the fibered veil of his mask standing between his eye and that224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwTHcUqjcn
ticket home. It too would quickly disappear into the clouds above and he then turned224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW0UNWjWM2S
his attention to the others below him, to their bodies swinging either to the left or to224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviCcAjVuxx
the right as they dodged the white flashes of lightning, and all this while freefalling224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGbeyHLr15
between all the rain and the storm that births it. Something that would repeat itself224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU9ACpbENB0
for quite a while, and these manoeuvres that are not without grace are also owners of224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPydNSTo9HO
a silence of their very own. Then the first sightings of land were bestowed upon all the224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FbLqxJkkB
eyes behind those masks. All that thunder and fury might have begun to let them go224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yR7WyBdsZ
but the rain will still escort them for a long time.224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz2ovTFR2x
“Ready to deploy on my mark...” the captain’s voice cuddles their ears once more,224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdbDmodd04
“In three... two... one... Mark!”224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Zv43XGS6i
Their diving formation then assumed a more aggressive stance for a moment, one224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfW0osLoHQ
that always precedes the relief that is about to come and is meant to gain more distance224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiymXeBcnBa
between all of them. One at a time their suits began to reveal linear glows throughout.224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0mjVMp3JK
Some kind of purple and red patterns of an almost neon nature covered the majority224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTI5yBIPl3
of their armoured bodies and then, after producing some sort of electrical field around224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSXgM6WTGm
each one of them that is actually the reason for their spreading, some slick and224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3VnThpyIY
silk-like red elongated cloths sprouted from each one of their backs and arms.224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQhVmP1S83
Six stripes, three on each side and all coloured in dark reds jump from where their224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCfPqNA1Zz9
shoulder blades should be behind all that armour and their elbows only to attach224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgPCs7qmJv
themselves quickly to their calves. Each one of the falling bodies immediately slows224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Q20X2Y8oW
once these sorts of one colour rainbows are fully deployed. Their descent became224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqDIpcl4H2
gentler and even, if only for a short while, allowed some personal time to breathe224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaRjJRmP2N
before getting right back into it. Such peace lasted about a minute, possibly slightly224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWQmcF21um
more and then impact was finally made...224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxVtwIAzqz
One at a time their feet arrived and finally contacted Brosse’s soil more gently than224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3V2jip8j5
one would ever expect. Landfall was made quietly as it usually is, but the weather of224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bKoLsFAAX
this region has brought them no closer than what they were expecting. They found224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7g1N5bS1Ha
themselves separated but not by much; one landed here and the next just over there.224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw3ChOOjha
It was dark and muddy all around them and the storm above the entire region has224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlEo0KjWWS
them soaked already, but none of this is of any concern to them. Each of them had to224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKReJJSBUF
walk a very hard long road to get to the position they now occupy, and it didn’t get any224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ60ShSV10ju
easier after doing so. That was when their real training began and continues to this224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5vkZSoLLR7
very day. Neither storm nor mist, not even the unruly howls in the darker corners of224Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡravj6k2dKI
this haunted town will make a dent in their determination.
