The morning is rather quiet. I sit and sip my coffie and try hard not to think about smoking. Mornings are the hardest for me. I have been trying to cut down to just one a day but its hard. About 6 I quietly head down and fix something to eat. I see Omega curlled up in the corner through kafka's eyes. Something about him reminds me so much of my own son that I start to cry a little. I shake it off. I dust off my bed roll and cover him then went to work on breakfast. If only I had some baking stuff I could make pancakes. Instead I do a basic eggs and tost and fix him a plate. I quickly finish my food and head out for my morning jog. He had a big day yesterday he should sleep in. At lest when he wakes up he'll have a good breakfast waiting for him.

I smile as I trot down the street with Kafka.

I stir slightly, then notice something covering me -- she must have done this. But why? I thought that she didn't trust me? I awaken fully, then look around the small place for her; she's gone.

But there is food... and unlike ration bars, this looks like it can't just sit around. I eat it; it's different, but not bad. Then I go clean up, and after that fold up the bedroll and wait on her.

I make it back to home base and make my way into the kitchen. Without thinking I change my cloths forgeting I had company.

"um.. Omega are you here?" I say as I put on a clean pair of pants. I take a rag and wipe the sweat from my forhead. "I am thinking of heading over to the village a few miles from here for suplies and a bath. Would you like to come?"

I was about to say something to her as she returned, when she started pulling off her shirt! Blushing furiously (though it would only be seen via IR sensors), I cover my eyes and turn away.

"...here..." I squeak, still turned away. "Bath? Not with me, right?!?"

“hu? No. Marie’s Bath House have separate baths for men and women. She’s kind of a prude about that sort of thing.” I pulled a clean shirt over my head. Then kneel down to get my pack stuff. “After the Legion building fell things went to the stone age here. Many do not have the proper resources to maintain a sonic shower so I helped Marie set up a bath house for the community.” I called Kafka over and fitted him with his doggy pack. “it’s a rather nice set up. They use the left over bath water to water the crops so it doesn’t take away from the town. But you have to use their specially made bath soaps and shampoo’s so as not to get toxin’s into the fields. It‘s an interesting and relaxing experienced. I get a discount because I helped set it up.” I went over to the table and found that he already cleaned up the plates. How nice.

“So what do you say. Up to doing a little sight seeing here on earth?”

"I... suppose, ma'am?" I clear my throat; that was no way to accept an order! "I mean -- yes, ma'am."

“There is no need for this yes, Ma’am stuff… Makes me feel old.” I said with a sigh walking out of the building, “ Call me Rosa, or Sight Jack if we are in costume. Well I guess you can shorten Sight Jack to just Jack. That’s what they use to call me in the good old days. You know when I first met Echo I called him Marry? Drove him up the wall.. Ha ha..” I smiled and gave a cough, “Well maybe I’ll tell you about that later. Um.. I think we head west.” turned my back from the heat of the sun and started walking then stopped. “Wait I almost forgot. You need to put the ring away. It would not be wise letting other people know you have one.”

"As you wish... Rosa." I reply. Then I frown. "As for the ring, it took enough effort for my children to let it past the first time that I can't keep putting it on and off."

"But... let us try something?" I concentrate, imaging what I want my crystal children to do. One of the larger ones on my finger expands and grows over the front of the ring, making it seem like a gold ring with a large dark blue stone. I look down at it, so that she can see it. "Will this do?"

I looked through his eyes and saw his little trick, “Yeah… that should do nicely. Some people blame the legion for some of the bad things that have happened. That and I didn’t really obtain these rings in a very honorable fashion. Hey look over there the path to the city.” I said trying quickly to change the subject. “Tis a bit of a ways, so you can regale me on the journey to find the Legion. And of your father. I would like to know if that sexy son of a bitch is still kickn.”

I figure she means she had to loot the rings back, considering the ruin that the Legion's headquarters had become. But there is a time to be pragmatic, rather than honorable, I suppose?

Her... description of my father, however, stops me in my tracks. "I, erm... if you mean he is alive and well? So far as I know, yes." I blink. "When did you acquire such an -- an interest in him?!"

“Yes well, there is a reason why Mano called me the lost soul and lets just leave it at that.” I said with a sigh. “If you want to know more about it you will have to ask him.”

((OOC: I am leaving it a bit ambiguous for now. I want to try and keep continuity with the Yahoo group. But if you want to make up some stuff about the history with Jack and Mano feel free. I’ll play along.))

“I would rather talk about you if you don’t mind. How you got here is probably an amazing story. It’s not an easy journey for anyone.”

"I'd thought it was because he related to your plight? He'd done... things, when he'd lashed out in pain, that he regrets even now." I tell her solemnly. "But please -- don't call him Mano? He hates that name."

"As for how I got here? Security's not so tight on some of those cargo ships -- especially the ones where they don't provide life support in the cargo sections. They figured that the trip would last longer than someone in a transuit could survive." I manage a small smile. "They didn't figure on us."

(OOC: From what I figured, Dal got deported cause Klirn offered the UP a good deal on trading rights or whatever. Then Seth had too much to do with saving Vartok to ever get back to her. Were you suggesting that Seth and Rosa had an affair?)

((OOC: Not necessarily an affair. Rose is sort of a flirty person, sometimes to the level of inappropriateness if she thinks it’s funny. Her relationship with Seth may have been one of friendship, casual alliance, or even enemies. You can even play it as her trying to mess with Omega’s mind and that she has never even met Seth in person. Where ever you want to take it is ok with me. I am ready to go along with most anything. Heck if you even want to play out some of this history in Yahoo group that would be even better but things go slow there so I don’t expect that happening anytime soon. Heck I am not even sure if Rosa will be a member of the Legion yet. Over all you can make stuff up or leave it Ambiguous and see where it goes. What ever happens we'll make it work. ))

I laugh, “You got very lucky. Very few cargo ships make it to this this planet without some confrontation with pirates.” I grew silent for a moment and the tension in the air choked the conversation. A few steps later I finally spoke. “I hate to bring this up…. But you didn’t give me a sold answer about never killing.” I turned my face away from him. And my heart sank a little afraid of how he would answer this time. “I need you to promise never to kill. It’s a requirement for the New Legion. Actually one of two. The willingness to help others and not kill. That is all a person needs to be in the New legion as of now.”

I could sensed he was about to answer me but I stopped him short. “You don’t have to answer right now… Think about it. It’s very important.” and by that I meant it was very important to me. Almost a pride thing. I needed as much help as possible to get the New Legion going and I could not afford to turn away good people such as Omega.

"If that is what the Legion requires, I'll hold back." I tell her solemnly. ~Even though I think we may end up losing more people because of that?~ I finish the thought in my head.

Still stubborn not giving me his full word. I don’t know what I was going to do with this boy. I gave a huff. I’ll bring up the subject later. We walked on myself saying nothing, until we hit the gates of Aftervill the small refuge village camp on the outskirts of what was once New Metropolis. It took only a few moments for the guards to open the gate and question us.

“State your purpose, ma’am,” Said one guard in a ho hum, I’ve got nothing better to do but bug all those trying to get into the camp.
“Do any of us know what our true purpose in life is?” I said snidely
“Miss. Garcia do you have to be like this every time?” He said familiar with my catty remarks.
“ Yeah its my purpose.” a slight smile came to my face.
“ Just get inside before I put a few holes in your wrinkly old butt.” he said as he moves to shoved me to the side.
