“I hate this part.”365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgg3TzRB9y
“Aw come on Deena;” said the one assigned to go first, “it is as I always say.365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5RYgedlci
Sometimes there is nothing you can do. You just have to accept it as it is.”365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMzwnR8tz9
“Rhim!”365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwxqNuBa89
“Hope all of you brought your raincoats...” he added before taking that first jump.365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5E5oFOJv2g
“Captain, I will be waiting at the extraction point by sunrise...” a small pause and a365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmVxKRNyIy
bit of silence from that box, not even the slightest static. “See yous’ all there.”365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxoIl3XqETk
“See you there...” the captain jumped off last, he dived straight into that storm much365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWYvbDvBIQX
like the four before him and one by one Sheiska saw them disappear into those thick365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzqsdIoN8b
clouds, all of them impressively connected by rumbling thunder...365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnGqmPncmp
Sepia like clouds as massive as anyone can ever hope to find that always carry365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAZKQMk1PF
with them this constant anger, this hatred towards something that they always admit365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡICxfyKc7VD
with unceasing displays of energy. Constant and even more impressive discharges of365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk33HWRaZM4
lightning and rain that knows no drought! Standing against all this, are now five365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR5G5spEOS
minuscule and darkened figures freefalling with only the closest lightning flash now365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jkg4vLpH6
and then being capable of revealing more of them. Despite it all, they seem calm, even365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpx6u0w2vs
gracious at times, as they keep on descending, their bodies swinging and dodging any365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5BgLLpVVMi
danger heading their way. Their masks protect them from any outside sound and the365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDSfDv5wNSa
technology within them, albeit struggling, is enough to get the word around.365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcLonMZlrQ
“Alright... wait for my mark...” the captain speaks to all of them “Any minute now...”365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5SvIzMR4H
All five of them are now dropping like they did so many times before and their365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeDJLOubeOL
leader looks back to get a quick glimpse at the Bolt Lander one last time. He stared365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcMi4w9q0W
at it for a moment, only the fibered veil of his mask standing between his eye and that365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDLDRKScvg
ticket home. It too would quickly disappear into the clouds above and he then turned365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1jWQDteju
his attention to the others below him, to their bodies swinging either to the left or to365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzPZvvmOKKj
the right as they dodged the white flashes of lightning, and all this while freefalling365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUl2ViJHvFf
between all the rain and the storm that births it. Something that would repeat itself365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuVyqriZeSe
for quite a while, and these manoeuvres that are not without grace are also owners of365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sT5TMw9Lw
a silence of their very own. Then the first sightings of land were bestowed upon all the365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp7qwHslQNv
eyes behind those masks. All that thunder and fury might have begun to let them go365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dTmLTWr3A
but the rain will still escort them for a long time.365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Lk5ZIEOe1
“Ready to deploy on my mark...” the captain’s voice cuddles their ears once more,365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02yCr8hqVJ
“In three... two... one... Mark!”365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7JIlvxg7G
Their diving formation then assumed a more aggressive stance for a moment, one365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxEqZ6P24q
that always precedes the relief that is about to come and is meant to gain more distance365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvwUdsF7oO
between all of them. One at a time their suits began to reveal linear glows throughout.365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiw10Xby4m
Some kind of purple and red patterns of an almost neon nature covered the majority365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqeMw5YmaF
of their armoured bodies and then, after producing some sort of electrical field around365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpMqRSG9NQ
each one of them that is actually the reason for their spreading, some slick and365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPuSYNAx4X
silk-like red elongated cloths sprouted from each one of their backs and arms.365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxqOFwILVC
Six stripes, three on each side and all coloured in dark reds jump from where their365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUz9dtmoH3
shoulder blades should be behind all that armour and their elbows only to attach365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQzcXh6qFyv
themselves quickly to their calves. Each one of the falling bodies immediately slows365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwXUpeuse8
once these sorts of one colour rainbows are fully deployed. Their descent became365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPU3DNRCiJ2
gentler and even, if only for a short while, allowed some personal time to breathe365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBiKknv87w
before getting right back into it. Such peace lasted about a minute, possibly slightly365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeQbGnFpPv
more and then impact was finally made...365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKoQXsIdkw
One at a time their feet arrived and finally contacted Brosse’s soil more gently than365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4656GZ6hD6
one would ever expect. Landfall was made quietly as it usually is, but the weather of365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjORCJwQIEI
this region has brought them no closer than what they were expecting. They found365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKhIyVu7Jb
themselves separated but not by much; one landed here and the next just over there.365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡapFiNjDkBT
It was dark and muddy all around them and the storm above the entire region has365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktlfxlrNC4
them soaked already, but none of this is of any concern to them. Each of them had to365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7siQBP9yq
walk a very hard long road to get to the position they now occupy, and it didn’t get any365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFi3V1Hh5O
easier after doing so. That was when their real training began and continues to this365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWt2H0DiacU
very day. Neither storm nor mist, not even the unruly howls in the darker corners of365Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJld1b0CV3H
this haunted town will make a dent in their determination.
