It was a little bit past midnight, yet I managed to sneak out and into the Field of Mars. I wasn't really one for much sleep, nor did I held any particular attachment to it tonight. For some odd reason I had that old dream still swirling, spinning and flashing in my head. I couldn't snap out of it much. So instead of making a mess and screaming like an idiot inside the Cohort I decided to just get dressed and walk up to the Field of Mars. I didn't really waste time getting into something fancy, just a comfortable pair of blue denim jeans that looked as if they had been absued for far-too many times, a v-neck t-shirt with my almost signature black leather jacket and some military black boots. Of course my dagger necklace still hanged from my sinewy neck. It was sacrilege for me to even think about removing my necklace. Especially now after remembering those faces.
I guessed I like some weird dude out in the night. I mean what kind of guy steps into the middle of a fighting field just to sit down and look up into he stars? Thought, if I had to be honest, I felt quite out of place. Ever since I returned to Camp this underlining sense of awkwardness began to afflict me. It wasn't however an overwhelming feeling, nor was it something that really bothered me. If anything it was just this sense of loss. I had seen most of these guys a long time ago when they were just probatios and now some even held my old rank or surpassed me. I felt particularly proud for some and I did have a heart full of the correct feelings. Even if it was a minuscule help, I still managed to aport something to those old probation who now became the Camp Superstars. Sadly, I just couldn't shake this feeling off. I still felt that I just abandoned all of them without any real reason. I mean sure I said I had to help my mom, but I knew that everybody perceived that it was a lie. Oh well, I guess this is the price of my cherished past freedom. I decided to not pay too much head to it and continued staring at the stars, thinking that maybe my friends, my old comrades would be up their like Orion or Zoe.
Much to my surprise and slight annoyance, I heard a sound erupt from behind me. My instincts didn't waste a second. I quickly snatched my necklace and smashed it, unleashing a dancing orb of flames that circled my hand until my Spatha erupted from the flames in a flash of pomp and circumstance. Since it was still dark and I couldn't really see much, I decided to activate the flames on my sword by swiping the shape sides against my palm. Soon afterward a mess of scorching flames outlined my sword and I proceeded to use the light provided by the flames to see if something had in fact arrived. At first I didn't see much, but after a closer inspection, I saw it clearly, a figure I had not seen in a long time that brought a small smile to my still, somewhat somnolent face.
