[b]"... Feelings, strange dreams, odd figures? Particularly in the shadows?"[/b] [indent]The beat in Hoshi's chest stuttered a second. A subtle redness returned to her face; she tried to hide it by lowering her face. She threw Alias a side-eye, hoping that he would speak before her. Her thoughts veered back to the dream she had woken from that very morning, and the feeling that Tsu had somehow been reaching out to her. She wondered if now was a good time to say something. [i]No. Not now.[/i] If she were alone with Alias she might have opened up. But not with Zac and Taivias nearby. [color=6ecff6]"I--"[/color] she cut herself off as Alias started. He seemed to be having a go at Zac. Her eyes widened as a flash of light errupted in and vanished from her friend's hand. For a second she could have sworn she saw something in the shape of a sword outlined faintly through the flare. [color=6ecff6]"Alias!"[/color] She threw a stern glare at him. [color=6ecff6]"It's ok,"[/color] she said, more calmly. [color=6ecff6]"I don't think Zac is belittling us."[/color] She lowered her head again, thinking for momemt. [color=6ecff6]"I've had strange feelings too."[/color] She looked up at Zac. [color=6ecff6]"I have been for a few days now. Like something is trying to draw me away from home."[/color] She patted her chest with an open palm. [color=6ecff6]"It kind of peaked this morning. And then he appeared,"[/color] she pointed her thumb to Taivias, [color=6ecff6]"and then you crashed here. I reckon I might have just had some wierd premonition or something."[/color] She shrugged. She took another long look at the ship. Damaged as it was, Zac seemed confident he could get it into the sky once more. [color=6ecff6]"So, your ship,"[/color] Hoshi shifted the conversation. [color=6ecff6]"Does it have room for passengers? Could... could you take us with you when you leave?"[/color][/indent]
