Areni frowned, thinking back to that time. She vaguely recalled someone who matched Rua's appearance during that time.
"I am sorry, my memories are vague. I have seen a lot of guys with similar appearances like you, Rua, so I am sorry if I cannot remember you clearly."

Rua shrugged, then looked about at all the glass dust in here. "So what the hell happened in here? Glass sculptures before that Gan roared?" he asked.

"Not quite." James said, and took a couple steps toward Rua. "They once held seasnakes, and if I am not mistaken they were drawing the beast to this ship." He said. "So, your buddy there" he said as he pointed to Adam, "released them, and let them go into the sea." He explained bluntly.

"And judging from the fact that we've got a roomful of angry guards here," Rua continued, "And that the ceiling is wide open, I'd surmise you used the top hatch to get them out, right?"
"Yeah," Adam said.
"Good," Rua said, "At least one of you isn't brainless."

Lt. Bridges looked at Rua with a somewhat angry expression. "Just what are you implying, kid?" He asked with a hint of aggression. He had a feeling he knew the answer to his own question, and there was no way he'd let the punk get away with it. He didn't take that kind of crap from Privates, even Corporals no older than Rua, so there was no way in Heaven or Hades he would let him get away with it.

"Well, that depends," Rua said calmly, "Did you guys and Adam have conflicting plans on what to do with the seasnakes?

"Well..." James started as he looked back on the most recent events. "There was more than one idea brought up before one plan was chosen." He replied.

"Adam's plan, as he explained it to us," Areni said, "was to carry the seasnakes out of here and feed them to the Gan. What I had in mind when I came here was to simply lower them, whilst inside their containers, into the water." She shrugged. "That way, at least, nobody would've been harmed. Plus, it'd have been a lot more simple."

Rua sighed and shook his head. "I'd have thought you of all people would know. Guess I was mistaken," he said. "The main form of attack that a Gan uses when it hunts is to rise up from underneath. So if you had lowered them into the water from beneath the ship, the Gan would've probably bitten the 'snakes and the ship in half."
Adam blinked.
"So yeah, Adam had the right idea in luring them up above so they'd go over the side and out a ways."

"What is he that you are making him looks so great? Your son? Your lover?" Areni said, slightly agitated.

Rua gave Areni a flat look, while Adam glared at the woman openly. "I never said he was. He just knew what he was doing," Rua said. Then Adam blew up.
"What the hell is your problem!?" he shouted at Areni, "All you've been doing lately is bitch about me!"

"MY problem is YOU!" Areni shouted back with equal, if not more force. "First, you nearly have my bloody remains smeared against a rock wall in your hasty escape to get away from a TINY explosion. Then, you constantly criticise me, and THIRD, without even THINKING, you just rush in and free the seasnakes. If it weren't for all the luck in the world, they could've wreaked the ship and eaten us all! NOT that anyone would miss you."

"Yeah, but it did work," Adam snarled back, "And that's all that really matters in the end. I knew what I was doing."
Rua remained silent and merely shook his head as Adam and Areni started in on another round of bickering.
Please return soon, Alli, he thought exasperatedly.

"Oh, please! A retarded person with zero brain cells is smarter than you!" Areni shot back. "It was pure luck and some help from the Gan that made your so-called plan work out, mister."

"Knock it off!" Rua suddenly snarled, cutting off both from speaking. "You're both acting like children!"
Rua turned his gaze. "I know you keep attracting unwanted attention from girls, but please, try to keep things to a minimum."
Adam glowered at Rua, but said nothing. Rua then turned on Areni.
"And you! You of all people should know better than this!" he shouted, "You're the daughter of Gahm, start acting like you're a grown woman, not a spoiled little girl!"
Rua closed his eyes and shook his head in frustration. "Considering the fact that you're the leader of the Daughters of Light, you need to act like you're a leader," he said, looking at Areni again, "And getting into a fight with someone who's most likely only trying to help is merely showing you're not fit for it. So knock it off."
