sssoooo i had two hours of watching a freaking screen today so in my fit of bordem i wrote this story on sly (boss was walking around so forgive spelling mistakes, complete and utter lack of grammer) just seeing if people hear like it might post it main forum
Short story to practise English
GÇ£Please remember suicide in public places is strictly forbiddenGÇ¥ spoke a small cold womanly voice across the tannoy system.
David gave out a sigh, pondering to himself that death was now something so mundane clearly people found it faster than taking the tram.
GÇ£Due to scheduled maintenance Station management would like to apologies that the station tram service is currently unavailable we apologies for the inconvenience this may causeGÇ¥ again spoke voice sounding as bored as he was.
GÇ£AhGÇ¥ David thought to himself that explains the suicide into the war room problem though it would be nice if the rest of them hurried up the battle started 10 seconds ago David quickly decided to go over his new diary of life as an immortal as he clearly had a few moments to spare.
****************************
The rather sudden invention of the ability to transfer one mind into a new body had leading to creation of immortal soldiers had led to some rather interesting developments as of late. Of course the capsulers had this tech for quite a while now changing landscape of the universe for ever. But they were ship bound, admittedly no one was going to argue with an immortal man who could control a titian with his mind alone, but if by some chance you managed to shoot one of them in face that was it game over.
Then out of nowhere the State approaches me and ask if I want to new breed of soldier, so of course I agreed and after going under some enhancements I find a note next to gun which simple stated, GÇ£shoot you self in headGǪ you have 3 daysGÇ¥ sadly im not sure of overly trusting or just really really really dum but I didnGÇÖt bother to check if the gun was loaded with live rounds thinking the state would not go to this much trouble just to have me shoot myself.
And thatGÇÖs how I died the first time
Now kids just remember when they say you will live forever, what they really mean is only a mortal can die once. To count iv died 954 times which means either IGÇÖm the worse person ever at being immortal or they need to change the definition of it.
Signed 514
*********************************************************
David had decided to sign off most his entries with those numbers as they had been route cause of deaths 100 to 956 and it was one most interesting things David had noted. He had quickly learned that nearly every major player in the Universe had all suddenly got the tech at the same time and at some point a small nations worth of these GÇ£clonesGÇ¥ had suddenly shown up in the same system for no explainable reason other than nearly everybody agreed they all felt GÇ£compelledGÇ¥ to head to the legions territory on seeing/hearing/dreaming the numbers 5.1.4.
*a few months earlier*
Now David could not speak for other the bunnies around the place but what really stood out to him about the events of last few months you know apparent from Caldari state making him immortal killing god was on after arriving in legion space, for no explainable reason other than he really really had too. Was the fact the moment he arrived he was directed to a station, next on landing he was directed to a rather acceptable if a bit small living quarter (the bed left much to be desired) swiftly followed by what felt a gut shot of was labelled capsular blood a bowl and picture of Ammaren mother. Swiftly backing away he turned to find on the floor an info sheet of describing 50 units of what looked to be Ammar heavy amour, forge launchers and a bunch of modules with a loving pic of his Caldaria Prime born father, greening like a school boy next to wreaked GAL tank.
GÇ£Ah, if my records are correct, you father took that pic after your people took back your home planetGÇ¥ spoke a very calm if deep male voice
David spun around his hart racing
GÇ£Just what the hell is going on hereGÇ¥ stammered out David
GÇ£Your test subject in test program for immortal clone troops. Before you ask you will be paid per contract you completed based on your successes and efforts, you may buy higher quality gear from the market place, and it says here as a sign of good faith, in this event the legion will overlook your GÇ£beliefsGÇ¥ and you parents will be relocated to safe planet in legion space to protect them from the ammar inquisition. The Trail begins on Thursday at this current point in time you may only contact people within our employment or other subjects as required on the field. Lastly we now control you clones and you mind has been linked into our systems so for now we cover the costs of new clone bodyGÇÖsGǪ. Any further questionsGÇ¥ the tall featureless man stood stock still awaiting David Reponses
David stood motionless for a few seconds before speaking Gǣjust oneGǪ.
GǪ.Can I get a bigger bedGǥ
GÇ£NoGÇ¥ spoke the Man a little more bluntly that David would have liked the exchange over and the figure promptly left. |

David crashed down on the sofa and pounded to himself GÇ£now mega corps could easily get all of this arranged, but why the hell has concord not swaggered up to this place and blow the -ú%GÇ¥$ out of it, I mean if a pod pilot stars to hard at another ship those guys come crashing down and here we are a pirate faction with a god dam immortal army and all they do post up a few wanted postersGÇ¥
GÇ£DAVID WERE LATEGÇ¥
David snapped back into the cold metallic room overlooking a planet looking to his left he saw what might as well passed as a scoreboard more than a roster and an out of date hologram table.
GÇ£Man the big boys must have to move planet fast they not even bothered to give us new intel mapsGÇ¥ spoke a rather energised scout
GÇ£zippy, shut it look the battle started 30 seconds ago but a bunch of us apparently got stuck in some buffer and not made it to their bodys so were are the replacement for squad 2GÇ¥ shouted a tall figure covered in latest model of logistics suit.
GÇ£David scrubs down there are reporting some guy apparently kitted out a tank and is forcing to be stuck in the red line zone so bring the forgeGÇ¥
GÇ£Mal, youGÇÖre are point man simple job once we touch down find the tank and cover David while me and zippy here setup a small foothold at the back of the base for rest of team to arrive inGÇ¥
Suddenly the man in what David thought was a rather shiny assault dropsuit spun around GÇ£hold up sparks. you have idea how much this stuff costs IGÇÖm not going playing bait for some tank, just so Brick here can get some kicks out dancing with a tankGÇ¥ spoke the guy people lovingly called twinkles
GÇ£I guess I could tell bosses about the girl from guitarist lot, you had rather steamy encounter with on the filed last weekGÇ¥ spoke sparks in rather flat tone
GÇ£SSOOOO these new drop uplinks huh I hear some of the boys are carrying them todayGÇ¥ spoke twinkles suddenly loading up the map looking for drop point.
Suddenly a voice blared out over in helmet comms
GÇ£This Alpha 1-3 iv got a D U placed behind the first tower next to BravoGÇ¥
GÇ£about time we linked in with the commsGÇ¥ spoke zippy loading in a fresh clip
GÇ£Good thing itGÇÖs the right side this time, twinkles youGÇÖre up make sure the drop zone is safe and david we be next in 20 secondsGÇ¥ Sparks slammed on his helmet and push the assault into forming wormhole
GÇ£uuhhh will this hurtGÇ¥ spoke Twinkles starting to see the countdown on his display
GÇ£na man itGÇÖs like a gentile breeze on a hot summers day GÇ¥ spoke David standing next in line
GÇ£oh thank god, see you other side brickGÇ¥ and with a flash he was gone, David quickly pulled out a nanite injector and stabbed himself in leg, suddenly removing his ability to feel pain.
GÇ£Brick what are you doingGÇ¥ spoke zippy looking confused
GǣOh thisGǪ I lied it hurts like nothing you can imageGǪyou guys should really read the manual on the toys you useGǥ and in flash David was looking at what he could only image was very pissed off Twinkie
End of part 1
i did this in an hour with hiding it from my boss be gentile, will be correcting the awful gammer and spelling mistakes later on in the week :P |
