Gemini, Part I: Kobayashi Maru
Title: Gemini, part I: Kobayashi Maru
Location: Stacy; The Pod Chamber
Notes/Warnings: Things may get a little bit gritty here. Strong possibility of PG-13 rating.
There was a reason why he never spoke about his family line.
There was a reason why he didn't tell Goliath or Arha or Jamie...or even Billy much about his line. There were simply things that families kept beneath the cover of night. Skeletons in the closet, as the Human saying went. Renne knew he had a closet and plenty of skeletons to fill it and that was why he ran, and why he didn't stop.
He crawled for hours.
Renne crawled from the pod caverns to the Observation Deck, to the Sensoriums and up into the City itself. He went into Angkor Wat and consciously tried to re-immerse back into a life he had known for years. Survival. Like an animal. Where there was only nature's law and it was simply what it was.
When that failed him, Renne began to run.
He didn't bother to think that the minutes of blacking out in mid-run were the manifestations of the flaw he'd kept quiet on all this time. He just kept running.
When Renne made it down to the caverns, he didn't even stop.
Shaking, drenched in sweat and tears he refused to acknowledge, he whispered into the dark.
"Rrrr-enne thin-k Rrrr-enne wahn-t go ba-ck, s-leep."
