just more innane thougths rattling....

This was all inspired from an image I made
up on a whim using Photoshop, and it's
still nagging me now.

Leon stared out the window, frowning.  The view was ruined
by Genom tower.

"So, what brings you back here after a ten year absense?"
he asked.

"I... just needed to come back," I said.

"You know, times are rougher now," said Leon.  "Things are crazy
out there.  And certain organizations are more untouchable than
ever.  You understand me?"

"Leon, what the hell are you talking about?"

"It's been ten years since anyone's last seen the Knight Sabers,"
said Leon.  "Things have changed around here.  If... IF they come
back, it could get ugly for everyone involved."

I sighed.  "You think I want to start that up again?  Dammit,
Leon, we all swore we'd quit after... after..."

Damn it all, I needed a drink.  Something was stuck in my throat.

...

The thunder howls in my ears, the rain pelts against my armor, 
and I'm baptised in the fire of battle again.  I'm not 35, I'm
20 again, forever young.  I'm racing across the rooftops in
pursuit of that damned boomer, pushing this old suit and these
worn legs as far as it can go.

It jumps across an incredible gap between buildings.

I jump after it.

I know I'm going to feel bad in the morning, but I don't care.

The boomer, not expecting me to follow, slowed down.  Bad mistake.
I land behind it, and before it can respond I take its head off
with a solid hit from a rocket kick.

There's a surge of adrenaline, a rush that just can't
be compared to anything at all.

This is where I belong.

This is what I am.
