h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*Lumien rides Corela slowly along the road toward Imardin, partially because they are both very tired, partially because of Lumien's despondency. She is crying.*

I don't know why I'm even going back.

*Chandra hovers over Lumien's head.*

...

Well, they're just going to ask me to leave! I drew out an army for Pete's sake!

...

It's the way things always work for me. I wander around, I find someplace where I fit in, I stay there for a little while, and something happens where they drive me out or I have to leave for one reason or another. Why should the Guild be any different?

...

I don't want to talk about it right now. Just go to sleep, won't you?

~~~Wolf we need you desperatly, please return to Imardin~~~

*Wolf runs back to Imardin as fast as he can on two legs*

*Pesh and Lycan fly towards Kalsho*&

*fyrea runs down the road spreading its wings it takes flight in persuit*

*Ninian is flying towards Kalsho*

*suddenly, Elandra tugs on him, he automatically lands*

*she slips off his back, and curls up into a ball on the side of the road*

Oh, Ninian, what do I do? Duty dictates I...that I ignore it, that I stay behind and defend my country. And yet I am becoming something I despise...

I have truly lost myself, Ninian. I...I need to...*she shudders, and Ninian prods her to get on his back*

Take me back to Imardin, Ninian...I will make them regret this enough when they return. I'll find a way.

*he lifts back off, and goes back to Imardin*

*Pesh starts racing down the road*

*fyrea flys high over the road gaining on Pesh*

*Pesh pushes harder slowing fyrea's gain*
