Sgt. Drake surveyed the landscape, it reminded him of somewhere. It had been a long and taxing expedition at Raelin’s insistence; this Wellspring must be found and defended. Worlds away from Earth, with all reckoning of the past fading further and further out of sight in this strange place, he recalled a distant moment of warmth. He thought of Rose. He thought of the Oahu wedding they’d planned, the white picket fence down the old dirt road, the two boys and two girls they’d dreamt of. Suddenly the thought grew sour, the ‘date which will live in infamy,’ the day that would ship him half a world away from their perfect island wedding. He gazed out over the ruins overtaken by lava long cooled and the jungle overtaking the dark lava. “Aloha means hello and goodbye,” he recalled. He heard a fern rustle as a Marrden Hound slunk from the far off water. Sgt. Drake looked on gravely and unsheathed his katana dryly muttering “No aloha”.
