(ooc: Finally)

Vita wondered around the forest, wondering where to go. His heart was thundering. He could hear the sligs running after him. He couldn't stop. He started running, took several urnings and found himself running ot f the forest. He jumped over the destroyed wasteland. Running for his life. As he began to jump over a break in the land. Something pulled himself into an alley way.

The head Slig was the fastest. They ran after Vita. Running, never stopping. He split up he troops. He knew Vita was there. Running away from the alley, he headed for Vykkers labs.

Vita was knocked out cold. He stared at his saviour. Noone was there. He kept still as the Head slig ran to Vyykkers labs. Vita saw something running away in the horizan. It wasn't a slig. He ran after him.

"CAPTAIN!" shouted a booming voice, causing Vita to jump up and hide back into the alley and the leader to slide to a stop.
"Oh shit." said the leader to himself.
"Captain Kairus... I am dissapointed." said a masked voice with an old texas accent (ooc: texas obviously isn't in oddworld, but the accent is (as many sligs in the game speak in a texas accent

)).

The captain turned to face what was only seen as an approaching shadow to Vita.
"Sir..." responded the captain, acknowledging the commanding officer's presence and standing as tall as he could.

From Vita's eyes, the shadow neared towards the captain until the person was visible. It was a larger than normal slig (not a huge blitz packer) with slightly withered skin (from what is visible) tattoed with scars here and there. Clothed in black padded looking armour, cyclops slig mask and equipped with holstered weapons and strange looking slig pants, he approached the captain further until he was looking slightly down at his face.

"Lets get one thing clear." he said "I am NOT a sir. I am a sergeant major. And lets get another thing clear, YOU ARE A FAILIURE! You were ordered to do one simple hunting task, the target was perfectly visible and gave chase...and you lost him! YOU LOST HIM! I'm warning you... one more slip up and you'll be a new meat product in Rupture Farms before you can say 'Sergeant Major', which I hope you will remember to call me instead of 'sir'. DO YOU UNDERSTAND!?"

"Yes s-... uh, Sergeant Major!" responded the captain with fear rushing around his nervous system and top speed. The Sergeant Major brings his face even closer to the captain's.
"Now get out of my sight and do your god damned job." he ordered with a quiet but fear inflicting voice.

The captain rushes off to his men at the vykkers labs. Vita backs off into the shadows by a step, but accidently rubs a loose stone from the wall. It hits the ground, triggering a noise that the Sergeant Major is alerted to.
"Hmmm. Might somebody be there?" said the Sergeant Major out loud with intention of the person to hear.

He slowly approached the alley way, where Vita hid in the shadows.

Vita backed up to the wall. The slig came nearer and earer. His legs cranking every second. Vita closed his eyesand hoped for another miracle. Hisheat startd thumping more loudly than eve. He thought the slig had hear his heart beat. The slig suddenly stopped.....

(ooc: Oops! Sorry Rex! Is it ok to censore out words? Like s***!?)

"You do know that I'm equipped with Night Vision, don't you son?" informed the Sergeant Major in a slightly taunting tone. Vita's eyes widened as he heard this. "But I have bigger Gabbits to fry, I have no time for the likes of you. You could say that I could just raise my gun and pop you one in the head... and you'd be right in saying that. But call me old fashioned... I like a chase. I wanna hunt you down rather than kill you whilst you're backed up against a wall, quivering."

The SgtMaj backs off a few steps and eases his weapon.

"We'll meet again... perhaps very soon, perhaps in a long time. Just depends on your actions really."

The Sgt Maj walks off towards a slig soldier, standing to attention.

(ooc: Nice one man!!!)

Ic: Vita sighd. He watched the slg walk away. He kept quite still incase he wasn't talking to himself. He silently ran off towardsthe little sand storm far off. That was hopefully his saviour.

It was some weeks now....Vita was tired and weary! He wascut and bleeding, brused and battered. He gve up his search! No one came to help him! He limped across the barron land hoping to come across some type of species, even ligs. Even if it was to end his misrable life. He had no power to morph. He wanted t lie in the dust and die. Be still forever. He walked on...truding...every step was more difficult then the one before. Vita ws in immense pain. Everything blacked out......he was....happy. He was with...a...a...thing. A hing they were laughing. He was praised. Sligs followed him, every where. But they were protecting him. Another thing apearead...a paramite he thought it was. They were having fun. Everything lightened and he opened his eyes. Fighting himself to keep in his heaven. He had to open his eyes. The paramite thing..it as looking over him....he blacked out again.......

Di stared at Vita with concern.He had found him in a shaded area underneath a cliff face near a small town full of winding backstreets. Di dropped a dead fleech he had just hunted near vita's feet. He didn't even knowwhy he was bothering; he had seen things in this state before and just left them to die. This one was strange though. He had seen sligs following it earlier, but the sight of his mutilated, twisted body had seemed to scare them off, at least temporarily. Di yet again stared at him, examing the various bruises and cuts along vita's body. A large leaf rustled nearby and gave Di an idea. He tore it apart with his needle like fangs into little strips; these would be his bandages.
di didn't know much of technology, he was illitarate and in any case deeply mistrusted indusrials ever since the vykers had captured him and experimented on him. He did know however, freom many years in the wild how to bandage things, so after wrapping up vita's cuts as best as he could, he went to get some water from somewhere. He had found a leather bottle somewhere, and now he filled it up and trickled the water in to vita's mouth. It may have just been his imagination, but he thought he had seen Vita's eyelids flutter slightly.....
