Re: Chapter 02: Ra the Immortal
Samuel doesn't take his eyes off the robots still pursuing the group, but the look on his face changes slightly as some of Katy's words do hit home, as he replies, "It doesn't matter if we don't survive this situation, then discussing long-term anything becomes moot. If I want to vent, then let me vent. Or would you rather me keep my anger all bottled up till it explodes and I do something 'rash'?" As Samuel continues to try to slow down the forces pursing the group and if possible taking out of a few of the robots in the process.
With Samuel's wife coming from a family with a long history of having jobs in both the Space Forces and in Law Enforcement, Samuel is rather used to hearing comments similar to 'fight smarter, not harder' as well as other sayings. Not that Samuel has ever paid much attention to those sayings as they aren't credos he lives by. 'She's right, I'm letting my hatred get the better of me. While I know anger can be used as a focus, if it becomes blind hatred, it only becomes a tool for one's opponent. I'm lucky that these SWATBots are too stupid to take advantage of that tool or I'd probably already be dead. I don't even want to think about what Alexis' father would say if he saw me fighting and ranting like this... Or if he hears about it later... He scares me more than anything Robotnik could ever do. I guess Katy's right that I'm going to have to do things differently... but how...bah, I'll think about that later, right now I better focus on the fight before something goes wrong.'
