Weird thing was that they had pretty much no weapons whereas we had assault rifles, shotguns and handguns. But they outnumbered us by far and I found myself being carried away by 5 of them. Managed to kick one in the head with my boot and they all dropped me and in a second a couple of my squad members were on them. I grabbed the person I kicked, jumped on him, knocked him down and sat on his chest, holding him by his neck. I was pretty sure he was one of those we were to bring back alive, been obvious by his smug and then said he's not telling anything. It was chaos around me and I was getting pretty darn anxious to get the hell out of there so I met my fist with his face. Strangely, after that, I couldn't stop myself anymore and I was aware that if I go on, I'll kill him in minutes but the rage I felt...Which isn't really like me. Then he said something like "You might as well kill me, I'm not saying anything." and I had this instant, utterly vicious idea and I stopped punching him, looked at his bloody face, grinned and said "No...you know what? I'm gonna drag you to the doctor and she's gonna patch you up and you'll live. And then you're mine again." And I got up, grabbed his wrists and dragged him away from the field towards out base.

...sorry this was so long

Was you playing Halo or something before you went to Bed by any chance?

[Odessa-086]

I play Halo every day for the past...3 months Helps ease the tension caused by people. And Halo books help too. But I did have quite a few Halo inspired dreams before, this was different, this was in present, all weapons are from around this time. And although I would always choose Halo dreams over something like this, I have it say...it was pretty cool Not to mention frighteningly real, especially the beating...

[Aerilon]

I think you need to see someone.

[Odessa-086]

Undoubtedly! But hey, it works if I vent in my dreams, instead of on real people.

[Aerilon]

I suppose, when you look at it like that, you have a point. But surely that means there is some very dangerous anger within you somewhere? Either that, or you are taking Halo whey too seriously.

[Odessa-086]

Halo is a game, and that's all it's ever going to be, I'm not the one to easily confuse reality with illusion Frustration is my bet, but I never turn volatile in real life when I'm angry. I just turn stone cold and impossible to have a conversation with.

[Aerilon]

Glad to hear it. As long as you don't turn into one of them nutters who decide to play Manhunt or GTA in Reality, we are all safe..

Even if you have posed with pictures of swords...

[Odessa-086]

Swords and guns are hobbies, I know better than to end up in prison. And it's incredibly difficult to get hold of firearms in UK so all is safe

[Aerilon]

How could I forget about the Guns. My mistake!! It is Ryette with only the Knives / Swords (I know they're called something else, but I can't remember, and haven't got the motivation to go scrolling back through the thread).

But yes, Safe Hobbies I shall take your word for it.

[Odessa-086]

Ryette has a pair of sai, whereas I have a katana, a ninja sword, several combat knives, a rifle and a couple of handguns
