“I hate this part.”339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUUM4OJx5u
“Aw come on Deena;” said the one assigned to go first, “it is as I always say.339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOE6IGb2310
Sometimes there is nothing you can do. You just have to accept it as it is.”339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe00hsbA7Og
“Rhim!”339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc7UN4Lax99
“Hope all of you brought your raincoats...” he added before taking that first jump.339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuA5CSHibUT
“Captain, I will be waiting at the extraction point by sunrise...” a small pause and a339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRlu57NeN2
bit of silence from that box, not even the slightest static. “See yous’ all there.”339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNP5oJy2Pe
“See you there...” the captain jumped off last, he dived straight into that storm much339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pbzvmVwjn
like the four before him and one by one Sheiska saw them disappear into those thick339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFUzuNjiUw
clouds, all of them impressively connected by rumbling thunder...339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ8BLnVokm
Sepia like clouds as massive as anyone can ever hope to find that always carry339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItBj45ji2j
with them this constant anger, this hatred towards something that they always admit339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctUmoUqMhL
with unceasing displays of energy. Constant and even more impressive discharges of339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA53kOIXq2R
lightning and rain that knows no drought! Standing against all this, are now five339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSErZ4UY9LK
minuscule and darkened figures freefalling with only the closest lightning flash now339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sVYAqkGXd
and then being capable of revealing more of them. Despite it all, they seem calm, even339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8THmcDyO4
gracious at times, as they keep on descending, their bodies swinging and dodging any339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtwhiIALp6
danger heading their way. Their masks protect them from any outside sound and the339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZQ5C1xxnI
technology within them, albeit struggling, is enough to get the word around.339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKcYlRJIRW
“Alright... wait for my mark...” the captain speaks to all of them “Any minute now...”339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmO5DEyRHeU
All five of them are now dropping like they did so many times before and their339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO00zlkVBAy
leader looks back to get a quick glimpse at the Bolt Lander one last time. He stared339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM9EeDz95t7
at it for a moment, only the fibered veil of his mask standing between his eye and that339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHY8WvturUJ
ticket home. It too would quickly disappear into the clouds above and he then turned339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgqxLm5Rg2
his attention to the others below him, to their bodies swinging either to the left or to339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT39GaTS7F
the right as they dodged the white flashes of lightning, and all this while freefalling339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoLVofW6xA
between all the rain and the storm that births it. Something that would repeat itself339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUlzWEjQhv
for quite a while, and these manoeuvres that are not without grace are also owners of339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtxsjWVZZVJ
a silence of their very own. Then the first sightings of land were bestowed upon all the339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVo2X0wB8J
eyes behind those masks. All that thunder and fury might have begun to let them go339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIDThWJWer
but the rain will still escort them for a long time.339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvUk9pdSDp
“Ready to deploy on my mark...” the captain’s voice cuddles their ears once more,339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEpQY4KDGU
“In three... two... one... Mark!”339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfoWa2gxZAR
Their diving formation then assumed a more aggressive stance for a moment, one339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BGG6mZgZe
that always precedes the relief that is about to come and is meant to gain more distance339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55Pe76x5XA
between all of them. One at a time their suits began to reveal linear glows throughout.339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbVFVcDtGh
Some kind of purple and red patterns of an almost neon nature covered the majority339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwuMYXB8vl3
of their armoured bodies and then, after producing some sort of electrical field around339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1c0xFPfLUK
each one of them that is actually the reason for their spreading, some slick and339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUfWizHzef
silk-like red elongated cloths sprouted from each one of their backs and arms.339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s9pFkaHoX
Six stripes, three on each side and all coloured in dark reds jump from where their339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZB9BrBeStj
shoulder blades should be behind all that armour and their elbows only to attach339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlp8H7fBBll
themselves quickly to their calves. Each one of the falling bodies immediately slows339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kns6ifN9z
once these sorts of one colour rainbows are fully deployed. Their descent became339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DQAAnxwHv
gentler and even, if only for a short while, allowed some personal time to breathe339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q1ITbrUp6
before getting right back into it. Such peace lasted about a minute, possibly slightly339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsr5M7NNxG
more and then impact was finally made...339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LCsw7b4hS
One at a time their feet arrived and finally contacted Brosse’s soil more gently than339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs2gxQmX9u
one would ever expect. Landfall was made quietly as it usually is, but the weather of339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vDNutOENK
this region has brought them no closer than what they were expecting. They found339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMy6gCdrrm2
themselves separated but not by much; one landed here and the next just over there.339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnCRURmq30
It was dark and muddy all around them and the storm above the entire region has339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbWNye2rc0
them soaked already, but none of this is of any concern to them. Each of them had to339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezZvOwlGGt
walk a very hard long road to get to the position they now occupy, and it didn’t get any339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpaNETKrc8
easier after doing so. That was when their real training began and continues to this339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPaFVrgm2w
very day. Neither storm nor mist, not even the unruly howls in the darker corners of339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUANreETWja
this haunted town will make a dent in their determination.

“And as our hearts sing and dance at the immoral rhythm of life,339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhq1Yzgtj7
we play its tune with each of our wrongful deeds.”339Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZR5Emno1Sc
