(Ooh, I like the idea of borders...)

Crysia dragged along her illegal luggage (it had a sword in it) as she walked towards the plane. Her mother was crying behind her, praying that the flight would be easy. Her mother refused to come on the plane because she was waiting for Crysia's father. Dad isn't coming back. He never will. Crysia thought as she turned away and rolled her luggage up the plane. A bunch of children and women followed along behind her. Adriane was one of them. Crysia's only friend was Adriane and a stray cat in an alley, but sadly the Novas didn't allow the cat. Venom is on the plane, too. She glanced at the messy brown hair in the aisle beside her and knew it was him. He didn't look at her. Crysia sighed quietly and took a seat by the window. Nobody was sitting beside her for now.

---

adriane taylor waved to her mother and tear's started streaming.
she had her gun hidden in her backpack and went into the plane.
but before she even turned she spotted a black dot moving through the crowd.
what the... oh lord, he's actually risking this stunt..?! adriane thought.

dexter moved through the crowd and made sure to not run into anyone.
he kept his hood down so he was not seen easily, yet just enough to where he can keep focused on the plane.

Venom stared out of the window. He had a terrible feeling about the plane and all his thoughts were negative. He wasn't worried about anyone, though, because there was nobody that he cared about. The Luxes have nobody else they can take from me. Venom sighed, longing to take out his bow and arrows or his spike brass knuckles, but it would risk him being imprisoned in some Nova camp for the teenage law-breakers--and he'd be under guidance. [iIs that worse then where I'm going, though? Would I rather do that then have absolutely no freedom?[/i]

A blaring siren sounded in his ears. He turned in alarm, his fingers grabbing for his suitcase. Venom's heartbeat pounded wildly against his sternum. He looked up, violet eyes wide, and saw that it was simply a baby crying. He relaxed a bit, and let his suitcase fall to the ground. A woman stroked the baby's head and looked up at Venom. "I'm so sorry..." The woman apologized. Venom chuckled lightly. "It's okay." He said, and dug in his suitcase. He found an old rag doll and handed it to the baby. The young one took it in its arms and the wailing stopped. "Thank you." The woman sighed. Venom nodded and glanced away.

---

adriane went into the plane and sat near the very back in an empty seat on the left side.
once dexter got up onto the plane he put his hood down and ran one of his hand's through his hair.
his mix-matched eye's scanned through the plane till he found adriane and went to the back to sit down with her.
''hey dexter...'' she muttered.
'hey'' he said, sitting down in the seat next to her.

Crysia watched her mother frantically chase after the moving plane until the boardwalk ended. She knew well enough that the woman who was practically a stranger wasn't chasing after the plane that carried her; her mother was only crying over the only thing that was left of Crysia's father. Crysia's father was the only joy in her mother's world. Crysia possessed none of the traits her father had as she had surpassed his extraordinary sword skills. Her fingers wrapped around her arms as she tried to warm herself. Yeesh. You people go crazy with the air conditioning. Crysia thought as she glanced at a flight attendant. Her eyes glimpsed at Venom, but she quickly turned away. Crysia looked out of the window and at the poor city below them, longing to get as far away as she could.

---

adriane looked out the window and sighed, rubbing her eye's as tear's started streaming.
''i hope i'll be able to see my mom again...'' she mumbled quietly.
dexter leaned back in his seat and crossed his arm's.
''you'll see her again... i'm sure you will..'' he assured, smiling a little.
she smiled and hugged him, laying her head onto his shoulder.
he looked down at her and blushed faintly, putting one arm over her shoulder's.
adriane's eye's slowly closed and she was fast asleep, still hugging him.
dexter sighed and gently stroked her hair, looking outside of the window now.
this war is insane... too many people are getting killed while fighting to keep their families safe.. this war has to stop he thought.

Slightly later...
Venom felt a sharp prod in his shoulder. In surprise, he let out an embarrassing squeak and propped himself up in his seat, to see the dark-haired girl with blue eyes that had been in the aisle next to him. Her large eyes were firm and urgent. Venom rubbed his shoulder and scowled at her. "What the heck was that for?" He hissed, quite ready to punch her in the jaw. "Plane's crashing. Evacuate. Get up." She said quickly, and before he could react she had grabbed his hand and dragged him up on his feet.
He yanked his hand out of her firm grip. "Wait, my luggage!" He hissed at her. She glared back. "What's so important about it?" The girl snapped. "You have yours! Besides, I... There's something important in it." He answered, referring to his `illegal` weapons. Her large blue eyes rolled as he grabbed his briefcase and bounded towards the exit.

A flight attendant stopped him and the girl from going out. "Women and younger children first, please." The flight attendant said calmly, but the girl just stared at her. "What the heck are you talking about? Your just going to let us die?" The girl yelled. "No, we're not." The flight attendant said sharply. "What's your name?" The flight attendant asked, looking at both Venom and the girl. "Crysia." The girl hissed, her eyes flaring in anger. From the back of the plane, Venom caught the glimpse of a sterling silver skull earring and spiky blue hair. He knew that boy from somewhere, but he couldn't say where.
Teens over the plane where either staring wide-eyed at the crashing plane, watching as the sea got closer, or were asleep. Except for Crysia. She was stubbornly complaining to the flight attendant. Venom sighed, and firmly put a hand on her shoulder. "Calm down." He hissed in her ear. To his surprise, Crysia shut up. He wasn't quite used to people listening to him. "Look, Crysia--we're going to survive. Okay?" He said. Her cheeks were slightly pink-tinged, but he supposed it was from all that yelling she had just done. She nodded, softly.
And then the plane slammed into the sea.

just before the plane hit the water dexter put his other arm around adriane and braced for the impact of the plane hitting the water.
adriane had instantly woke up as she felt the plane plummet out of the sky, suddenly now wide awake.
her foot snagged the back of her backpack's arm strap so it wouldn't get lost.

as the plane started to fill with water, dexter seen that half of the people in the plane were scrambling to get out, but also seeing that some weren't moving.
crap, we all need to get out of here he thought in horror.
he looked down seeing that adriane was still awake and alive.
adriane was holding onto dexter for dear life, shaking from fear.
she looked over to where crysia and venom were then hid her face into dexter's shoulder.
dexter looked over and called to them.
''follow me, we have to get out'' over to them.
he got up and got his backpack, then helped adriane by grabbing her backpack.
then sprinted to the front of the plane.

Crysia nodded, and ran over to Dexter and Adriane. She was too baffled to print the memory of Adriane and Dexter close together. Mist sprawled over right above the ocean, making it hard to see. The fog clouds shrouded over the air. The cold temperature bit at Crysia's skin, making goosebumps rapidly form over her skin. For a moment, Venom's deep violet eyes stared into hers and caused her to blush. She turned away quickly and back to Adriane and Dexter.
From the corner of her eye, she saw a clump of white land... Land! She thought desperately, hoping her eyes weren't playing tricks. "Adriane!" She called, not bothering to talk to Dexter because she didn't know him too well. "We've got to swim! I think I saw land near the west!" She said quickly. Venom was staring at her. Crysia spun around and glared at him, although she was still blushing.
"What?" She hissed. His gaze uncomfortably shifted to the side. "I... uh... I can't swim." He muttered, his voice flat. Seriously? Crysia thought with a tint of annoyance. "Um... Just kick your legs and I'll support you." She said, scraping the edges of the barrel of thoughts.

---

dexter sighed and grabbed a hold of venom's arm, dragging him out of the plane's door and into the water, both dexter's and adriane's backpack's over his shoulder.
''well, time for you to learn numb skull, unless ya want to drown'' he said in irritation.
adriane blinked and watched as venom got pulled out of the plane by dexter.
''well that's one way to get someone out of a sinking plane...'' she grumbled, then grabbed the other luggage, then used her free hand to grab crysia by the wrist, pulling her out of the plane as well.

dexter used one arm to swim as well as kicking his leg's, hoping venom did the same.
adriane used venom's luggage as a floating device to hold onto while she swam, helping crysia over so she could use the make shift floating thing to keep her head above water.
''i hope your right about this crysia...'' she mumbled.

Venom kicked rapidly with his leg, the mist clearing out slowly until he saw the island that Crysia must of seen. The icy water seemed to sink through his skin like a block of severely cold ice being pressed onto him. I must get third degree frostbite with this, Venom thought, seeing the pained look in Crysia's face as she entered the water. The other teenagers hesitantly entered the water behind them. As his feet rested on the sand, he swiftly ripped himself away from Dexter and grabbed his luggage. Adriane and Crysia came shortly after. Venom closed his arms tightly to his chest, trying to keep the little warmth that he still had.
Crysia walked up to him, her dark hair soaking wet. Most teenage girls, Venom thought, would be complaining their mouths off. Instead, she took out a jacket that seemed too small for him. "Here. Yoou seem cold." She pushed it towards him. He looked as she quickly closed her suitcase, and acknowledged something glinting before she closed it. Venom shook his head, feeling like he'd look like a wimp if he took her jacket. "No thanks." He grumbled. Crysia shrugged. "Suit yourself." She shrugged.

Venom looked up, and thought he saw the flash of human skin. A man in a dark suit was suddenly in front of them. He had a clear, mischievous grin--and the sign of an 'L' with two red streaks across it. A Lux. Venom thought, and grabbed for his suitcase. A few of the other teens shrieked, and one tried to punch the Lux in the jaw. The teen's fist simply went through the Lux.
"Hello, Nova children." The Lux said calmly. Venom wanted to strangle the man in the spot, but he was a hologram, so that wasn't an option. "Welcome to our camp. Here you'll have to kill each other and it'll be broadcasted on television." He said. This dude obviously is bad at speeches. Venom thought. "What if we don't want to?" A boy asked.
"Then we'll track down everyone you love and torture them, right in front of you." The Lux grinned. The boy's eyes widened and he stepped back. "You won't be provided with weapons, or food. Good luck." A gas filled the area, and everyone fainted and was transported to parts of the forest.

---

adriane moaned and rubbed her head, aching all over from the cold water from earlier.
she opened her eye's and noticed she was somewhere in a forest, and that instantly made her wake up.
she scrambled to her feet and looked around, hoping to see that one of her friend's were with her, yet seeing no one.
''venom! crysia! dexter!?'' she called out, frantically looking around.
oh no... my gun!!! dexter still has my backpack! she thought in complete horror, knowing she was pretty much defenseless.

once dexter was up he made sure he still had both his and adriane's backpack's and started looking for the other's.
if the luxes find out i used to be one of them i'll be tortured for life with being a lux rebel he thought, a small stabbing pain of worry.
he put his hood up and ran through the forest to try and find the rest of his friend's.

Crysia woke up, scattered on a tree. She was hugging her luggage tightly to her chest, and her eyes opened. Sunlight blared in her eyes, making her groan and turn to the side to avoid it. The Luxes... The Island... She remembered, and jerked up into a sitting position. They're out to kill me. She dug frantically through her bag, and jerked out her sword. Crysia dug through her luggage again, but as all it carried was jewels and things she was supposed to sell for money, she decided that the luggage wasn't worth carrying and it would only slow her down. She put it under the roots of the tree after she jumped off.
Crysia clutched her sword in her hands firmly, and looked around for someone who wouldn't kill her. Let's see here. Good things, good things... She walked through the forest, searching for her acquaintances. Adriane won't kill me, I hope... She walked on. Venom... I hope he won't kill me, either. She wasn't sure about Dexter and so she didn't think about him.

Crysia looked around. To her surprise, she saw a hooded figure running and dodging the trees, and when she saw the glint of a silver skull and blue hair she realized it was Dexter. Crysia quickly ducked under a bush, not trusting Dexter and choosing to stay alive instead. She suddenly felt pressure on her side and was knocked to the ground. "Oh, crap!" Hissed the voice of a boy. Crysia slipped out from under him, although she somehow had a scratch on her arm. Blindly she punched, and felt the hard bones of a jaw collide with her fist. She swiftly grabbed her sword and stepped back, ready for combat.
The boy looked up, his dark, dark hair brushed in his face. "Venom!" She exclaimed, seeing his dark violet eyes. He wiped the blood off from his mouth, but to her surprise he was grinning at her. "Heh. I haven't met a girl that could land a good punch until now." He said, amused.

His fists clenched and Crysia saw the spikes of his brass knuckles sticking out and realized that it was those that had scratched her. His fist punched forward, but she ducked and it barely missed her neck. Swiftly Crysia whipped behind him, and with her left hand she wrapped his arms to his side and the blade lightly touched his neck. "Give me one good reason why I should let you live." She said firmly, ignoring the blush that crept up her cheeks. "Because I'll do use to you as an ally." Venom said calmly. Crysia hesitated, and then said, "Prove it."
Venom leaned to the side, making her clench tighter. He fell backwards, and Crysia found herself squished against a tree. Quick thinker. Crysia acknowledged in her head, gasping for air. "Fine." She managed to say, and he got off her, grinning. "Then it's a deal."

(yeah dexter ain't hard to spot with his blue hair and skull earring, lol)

dexter stopped running and looked over his shoulder, hearing voice's from where he had come from.
god this is not going to be easy.. he mentally grumbled, hoping he still had his double sword nearby.
he reached into a hole in the base of a tree and pulled out a good sized looking sword.
''heh.. still here'' he said in amazement.
he made it split into two and stalked back the way he had come, keeping his hood down enough so his hair wasn't easily recognized.

once he was close enough, he jumped around the tree and held both crysia and venom at sword point.
he blinked and lowered both sword's.
''have either of you seen adriane?'' he asked, pulling his hood back down, looking at them with his mix matched eye's.
he still had his sword's wielded till he knew they wouldn't attack, but backed up as well.
''i've still got her backpack, and i'm pretty sure it's got something she need's inside'' he said, pointing to the backpack over his shoulder with his backpack.

(Imagine somebody not seeing him X3.... The young girl saw a flash of blue and silver as she was running. "Oh, that's such a strange plant! It looks like Dexter!" XDD)

Crysia's eyes narrowed, and she grasped her sword firmly in front of her. It was a motion that basic sword-users did not use, but Crysia was far beyond that point and she was skilled with the sword. Venom was pointing his bow and arrows towards Dexter's neck. He's either right-handed or left-handed. Venom thought.
That means one of us has a chance of not dying if he strikes. Crysia's sword moved slightly, but Venom grabbed her wrist and she stopped. "No, we haven't." He growled, and quickly let go of Crysia's wrist and put his fingers on the string of the bow.

Venom felt Crysia's fingers lace with his and looked at her in confusion. Her blue eyes were solemn. Before he questioned her, she dug her fingernails onto his knuckles (he had stored his brass knuckles away) and pried his hand off of the bow. What the heck are you doing? He wanted to say, but his look already did.
Run. She mouthed, and forced his bow to sling over his shoulder. Not wanting to leave his ally, Venom hooked their arms together so they couldn't really go different ways, and they ran. He glanced back and didn't see the silver glint of Dexter's ear.

---

(XD lol! i can actually imagine that)

dexter lowered both sword's and put both of them back into one whole sword.
his grip tightened as anger swelled up inside of him, then he swung his sword into the tree yelling.
both of his eye's were completely rage filled.
''curse you luxes... curse you all..'' he growled, pulling his sword out of the tree.
he didn't care if he betrayed his own people, he only cared about the war ending, and not wanting to get killed.

adriane ran around to try and find her friend's, hoping to also find her backpack in the process.
oh come on... please be somewhere! she thought in complete fear.
tear's streaked her face as she kept running, careful not to trip on anything.

When Crysia and Venom couldn't see Dexter anymore, they collapsed by a tree that had a rather wide trunk. Crysia gasped for air, and as Venom was uncomfortable with touch, he slipped his had out of her grip. She was blushing madly and slumped onto the trunk of the tree to shadow it, but her shoulder didn't feel the bark of it. Instead, she fell backwards. There was a hole through the large tree and it was hollow inside. Shelter. She thought, still tired, and crawled into it. She watched as Venom caught his breath and opened his eyes. "Crysia?" He muttered. She groaned, and he came towards the noise and was in the other side of the wide tree trunk. Crysia put her sword behind her and dozed off into a sleep.

---

dexter looked around as he slowly calmed back down.
''i swear, once i find whoever caused this they are dead...'' he grumbled.
he looked at the blade of his sword and ran his hand across the broad side of the double sword.
dexter heard footstep's and crying coming from the west and he turned around.
''adriane...'' he mumbled, dashing in the direction she was running from.

adriane kept looking around as she ran, hoping no one would surprise her and attack.
but before she could look ahead of her, she rammed into someone who kept themselves from falling over.
'''let me-!'' she started to say but was silenced when she felt hand's clasp her cheek's and pull her head up.
she seen it was dexter and tear's started to stream.
she hugged him tightly and started to cry, shaking from fear of what's happened.
he hugged her back and sighed.
