Sabre entered the clearing and stepped on to the beach, as usual he was wearing his jogging pants with sleeveless hoodie, but instead of the white tank top undershirt he usually wore, he was wearing a black tank top. He found a spot and laid out his towel and slipped out of his jogging pants and hoodie, so he was ready to swim with his swimtrunks and tank top on.
It had been several days since he had been anywhere where he might run into somebody. He wasn't really sure if he wanted company at this point, but he had decided to have some company would be better than sitting in the woods alone for another night.
He waded out until he would be chest deep in the water if he sat down, and then turned back towards the shore and sat down, just letting to cool water ease the burn of what his tank top hid from the world.

He looked to the foot prints in the sand and decided to track them down to see who it was. When he finaly came to Sabre to coming out of the water. he walked to him slowly he knew that his only friend in this town had had a horrid few weeks. He didnt want to say much as he watched him sit down in the sand. He approached him slowly he didnt know what Sabre's mind frame might be and he was not willing to be on the short end of it so quickly. He came close enough to be noticed though he was sure he was noticed long ago. He decided to sit down next to him a foot or so away. As he sat shoeless his cuffs pulled up over his ancles. He smiled abit and looked to Sabre.

Reply by Jeremy Castro on August 16, 2009 at 8:19pm Delete Sabre sits in the water a little longer before deciding he would get out. He hoped there wouldn't be questions about where he'd been and what had happened to him. He walked to his towel and took a seat on it and just nodded to both Lazarus and Otto.
Reply by Zachary S. on August 16, 2009 at 11:12pm Delete He looks to Otto and says politely"Hey man"
He looks back to Sabre and places a hand on his sholder for a moment.
"I have learned in that in my ages, not that i have been around that long, that one does not ask his friends where they have been or where they are truely going. One just accepts the path that a friend has taken and goes his way with him. Sabre you are the first person in his miserable little town that helped me adjust. For that I am in your debt. If you chose to go right i will follow you, If you chose to go left i will do the same."
He then slaped his back like a man would slap another mans back in a sign of admeration.
"you are one of the few who deserve to be called a friend and one of the even fewer who are not afraid of being the man some of us are not willing to be."
With that he looked out to the water and didnt say anything else. Only took a deep unneeded sigh watching the moon reflect off the water
I
Reply by Bob on August 16, 2009 at 11:23pm Delete Otto seems to be impressed by Laz's words towards Sabre "High praise, no doubt about it.... though I admit to having some questions... " he says in Sabe's direction "Only one that is pertinant though is if we should say we had talked to you to theres or not. Either way though,it's good to see you up and around. If you two have catching up I can wait...I got some business to talk but don't want to get in the way"
Reply by Jeremy Castro on August 17, 2009 at 11:05am Delete Sabre nods to Lazarus in acknowledgement of what he had said. It was nice to know there were still others around that had his back despite his impossible situation. He only said two words in response, "Thank you."
As Otto asked his question he shrugs and said, "I've been let go and am aware of the conditions so it makes no difference if you've seen me or not. What is your business?"

She swirled around in all black tonight, except for a red mask. She began singing, wondering if there would be company to go and visit after she finished.
Reply by Bob on August 17, 2009 at 7:52pm Delete Otto looks to the two of you "Just lookin' to see if eithe of you had any more dreams.. My sleep has been normal, though I know something pivatol will be happening soon"
Reply by Jeremy Castro on August 18, 2009 at 2:50am Delete Sabre hears the singing off in the distance and stands up and just says to Bob and Lazarus, "Excuse me." He then takes off in a hurry towards the source of the singing. As he gets closer he can see Tsuritsa and he slows his approach. He walks over to a tree and leans against it, waiting for her to acknowledge his arrival.
