(Alrighty folks. I won’t be really active until Sunday evening. I’m going to be out of town. See you then!
If I don’t fall asleep when I return that is.
Later! :3)

Sabrina nodded, “I understand, Mr. Wolf. I can find somewhere else, since I don’t have anything but my clothes to take with me.” She shrugged, it wouldn’t be that big of a deal to move from one peaceful area to the other.
She blinked and thought for a moment. “I think I’m 18…” She wasn’t sure how long she had been unconscious or how long she lived before waking up in the cemetery. All she knew was that it had been quite a while since the last time someone threw a birthday party for her.
“…”
She doesn’t know her own age precisely? The poor girl must have been really been through a lot and then some to forget something as vital as her own age. Then again, most of Lone Wolf’s biological information was kept under tabs. There were times when he would almost forget his birth date as he was never to discuss anything to describe his person. In this sense, he could understand. Rather than question Sabrina on it, he would just take her word for it.
“Alright then, just make sure you can get out as soon as possible.” The pilot stepped to the side to look at the headstones. “Excuse me, I just need to do this really quick.”
He walked a couple of paces keeping his eyes on the engravings of the slabs of slate.
Not this one, no…His grave should be here.
He halted when he recognized the correct headstone.
Found it.
He dug into one of the pocket compartments of the vest that he wore and pulled out a set of dog tags.
“Rest easy kid…” He simply said under his breath as he laid the dog tags down gently. Lone Wolf took the time to kneel beside the grave and meditate for a minute.
He wasn’t a spiritual person but he was still thankful to be alive. The thoughts to himself then began to ponder, when would his time come to an end? Working with Umbrella was just asking for his life to be significantly cut short yet it didn’t faze him that much up until recently. This is exactly why he didn’t fancy staying in cemeteries for too long. Thoughts of death and dying would creep up on him, scaring him even. He’d never admit it publicly though.
The pilot rose up from the particular plot and began to walk back towards the young lady. “I don’t know why but for me, there is some a calm after the storm when I visit here. I guess I can see the reason for wanting to stay here. Although, I couldn’t do it for more than a couple of hours at best.”
(Oogh… :/ Remind me to not over exert myself when it comes to manual labor. Sorry I haven’t been active yesterday. I’m still feeling the headache from some heavy work. I’ll be on but I’m not as active. I know I’m finishing up my response to Sabrina but is there any one else I owe? Let me know. :3)
She shrugged, “To each their own, I guess.”
She blinked and thought about his question for a minute or two. “I honestly don’t see why I should want to be anywhere else, actually.” She was puzzled by her own comfort zone, but she mentally shrugged it off.
“Hmmm…I don’t mean to be overbearing Miss Sabrina.” Clearly it was her preference to be here but Lone Wolf still was concerned. “It’s just that HQ is not too far from here. With the research the higher-ups tend to plan and your preference of locale, it’s like you don’t mind staying in the lion’s den. It’s not safe to stay here. I’m not trying to fault you for picking a cemetery but I think it would be best if you picked another one. One further away from Umbrella.”
Again, he found himself acting on his fatherly tendencies. It was quite humorous as he never would have imagined himself consoling with a child. Or at least to him she was a child.
“Pardon if this is really intrusive Miss Sabrina but how old are you?”
“I-I’m Sabrina,” she smiled a little, trying to distract herself from the depressing conversation. “It’s nice to meet you, Lone Wolf.” He seemed nice enough, even if his voice lacked emotion. She thought that he must’ve dealt with her father at least once, even if it was just a simple bump into each other in the halls.
“The pleasure’s all mine Miss Sabrina.” He nodded towards her. “I find it interesting that you take comfort in being here. It’s quite the opposite for me. Especially with those that I’ve lost. I’d rather just pay my respects and be on my way.”
He was curious though. Did she only take some sort of relief in only this little cemetery? “How about you? Isn’t there somewhere else you’d rather be?”
A ghostly smile graced her lips once more, “so far, yes.” Answering him, her thumb smooths across his as they take in each other’s presence as well as the warm weather. There was something that lingered in the air, something that sparked her curiosity and caused her attention to be drawn towards him.
From behind her darkly tinted glasses, she gazed at him for quite some time, trying to read him. She always found it rather hard trying reading off him, although she wasn’t surprised at all by that notion but it did make it difficult to know how he was feeling most of the time.
“Is everything alright? You seem..troubled in a way.” Not really knowing the exact word to place on how he looked, she tried her best at describing his expression.
He cut her a look of concern as he turned fully towards her way.
Am I really that obvious Beautiful?
Adrian traced her hand with his fingertips “Y-yeah…everything’s a-ok. I don’t mean to come off like that it’s just there’s been a lot on my mind these past few days.”
Adrian sat completely upright looking at the waves this time around. Seeing some beach goers frolic in the water without a care in the world made his expression soften up.
“Never mind that though. I just want this day to be peaceful. Me moping around won’t necessarily contribute to that.”
He then took off the tank top that fitted him quite snug and set it on the opposite side of where they both were laying. “Say, let’s see how the water’s feeling.” He immediately got up from the ground and dusted the light sand that managed to stick to his leg.
He outstretched a hand towards her. “Come on Beautiful. We should take advantage of the most integral part of a beach. It’ll be fun!”
Sabrina blinked and looked at her sweatshirt. “O-Oh, my dad gave it to me. He was a scientist for Umbrella, until he was killed…” She didn’t want to mention her father dying at the hands, or claws in that case, of one of the BOW experiments he was assigned to test.
So the girl lost her father due to his work. A typical case heard far too often with Lone Wolf. Many of the scientists did have families they needed to go home to. It was disheartening to see when their loved ones would catch on.
“Sorry to hear that.” He actually did try to sound genuine for the young lady but the delivery lacked any emotion. Something he would have to work on.
“What’s your name by the way? I’m Lone Wolf.”
(I was gonna get hype for the new Killer Instinct for the Xbox One but it’s kinda sorta lookin’ like Super Street Fighter IV Arcade Edition. :/ Not sure if want. Gotta see more and make judgement.)
/I own KI for one of the older systems, I’ll have to…
/I think mine is the SNES port, kinda makes me want to find my SNES and play it again\
There is a problem here. You thought about buying the Xbox One?!?!?!?
Oh GOD no, Worse case scenario I will buy the PS4 and the add on for back wards compatibility.
I meant usslonewolf…have I failed in my mission to inform the world of the Xbox One’s massive list of failures?
(Despite the camera which bothers me to no end, I made myself ignorant in the flaws, (And in fact, both systems in general. I’ve been a busy bee and haven’t had the chance to read an article recently about all the specs.) I think I’ll read up on that as well. I’ve seen a couple of blogs that stated why the Xbox One will tank or something along those lines. So ehhh, not getting my hopes up for the system but…still…Killer Instinct.)
*laughs* Figures. I can also say that I don’t think you’re alone when it comes to trying the civilian role.
I, too, am trying to go down this path but I take the occasional side job. *smiles* I can’t help it either.

(LOL Am I bad for thinking about buying the Xbox One? I mean, it’s Killer Instinct though. :/
But I’m very curious about the Backwards Compatibility Add On for the PS4. Hmmmm…*googles it*)
When I was playing Heroes mode like two nights ago.
I was LONE WOLF, I derped and was like WHO THE FUCK AM I?
until I saw the bright ass orange and went It all makes sense now……
Bright ass Orange + flight suit= Lone Wolf/Night Hawk.
ILU, LONE WOLF-MUN!!
(don’t hit meeeee~!!!!)
(>:U Wat? How dare you forget the awesome helicopter pilot! There shall be punishment.
Okay no, I’m kidding. XD It’s all good hon. He was shoehorned in the last second so it was predestined that people are going to forget him.
*cuddles* Lav you too! :3)

/I own KI for one of the older systems, I’ll have to find it and see which one.\
(Yeah, I loved both of them. I had the first port on SNES and the N64 sequel. I even used to go to the arcades quite a drive from my house to play it whenever the family wanted to go on an outing.
So many quarters wasted. XD)
Have you now? I find that interesting. I thought you’d be doing some dirty work when it came to your profession. Knowing your love for torture and stuff.
I take it you’re now just living the life of a civilian?
