Honeymoon

*Jonathan and fire have been married for two weeks. Jonathan is surprising Fire with a trip to the gardens for their honeymoon.

The "gateway" to the gardens has opened, and tickets are being sold fairly cheap to newly-weds.

Jonathan buys two tickets. They get packed, and go to the gardens. Shortly after ariving...the "gateway" closes. They are "stuck" in the gardens for five months.*

"Well, here we are." Jonathan said, as he hugged Fire. "Welcome to the gardens. Most beautiful place on Meeriad."
"Thank you so much. I love you." Fire said, and gave Jonathan a kiss.
"I love you too." Jonathan said, and they walked towards a cave, hand in hand.

They layed their sleeping bags down on the sandy floor of the cave. Jonathan went outside and got a few logs and brought them back. After a short time, he had a fire going. The cave had a natural chimney going out the top. The smoke went out of there, instead of staying the cave, and making it hard to breath.

The two love-birds layed down on one of the sleeping bags, and soaked in the warmth of the fire.

A couple hours later, they woke up and went outside. The gigantic bubble around them was almost completely blackish-blue. They could see flashes of silvery-light as fish swam by. Lightning bugs flew by them, lighting up small areas at a time. Most of the light though, came from the Chiknia (Sh-ick-nee-ah) bugs flying everywhere, giving off a soft blue glow.

Jonathan heard Fire give a small gasp as she took in the beauty of the gardens at night. He put his arm around her waist and gave her a slight squeez.

"It's..." Fire drifted off, staring at everything.
"Beautiful?" Jonathan said, looking around also.
"...Yes..." Fire whispered.

They walked around the gardens, admiring almost everything they saw, for a long while. Finally, they went back to their cave.

"Thank you, Jonathan." Fire said, laying her head down next to his.
"You're welcome. I'm glad you like it." Jonathan said in reply.

***


The next morning, Fire woke up to the smell of breakfast cooking on the fire. She slowly woke up, streching her wings and arms as she did.
Jonathan came over to her, with a small plate camping plate, that had eggs and some sort of meat on it. He handed it to her, and kissed her on the cheek.

"Good morning, sleepy head." Jonathan chuckled.
"Mmm. Brat..." Fire sleepily said, as she took a bite of her breakfast. "Where did you find the eggs and sausage?" Fire asked.
"Well, I raided a birds nest for the eggs, and the sausage is from a coney that was running around. I have no idea how the animals got here. Apparentally the gardens are taken care of on a regular baisis by someone. Remember those floating orbs of like that were dimming as we get here yesterday?" Jonathan said.
"Yeah. What about them?" Fire asked.
"They are giving off fake sunlight. Someone has put a lot of effort into this place. The pathways everywhere are well kept. It's very nice out." Jonathan explained.
"Hmm. I can't believe you let me sleep, and went out walking and exploring without me." Fire said, giving Jonathan a "look".
"You looked so peacefull, I didn't want to disturb you." Jonathan replied, smiling.
"Mmm-hmm. Sounds good." Fire said, forcing to keep a straight face.
"Well, at least now, I know all the good places...So I can take you to see them." Jonathan smiled.
Fire laughed and finished eating her breakfast.

A couple weeks later.

Jonathan and Fire are sitting on a hill, a waterfall is right next to them. The floating lights are turned down really low, and the Chiknia are floating around lighting everything in a soft blue.

RE: Honeymoon

Outside the garden bubble about one hundred fifty feet away, an unpowered casket-like submersible is traveling at 17 knots. It finally enters the garden's "low pressure zone" at a speed of 3 knots. The canopy blows out, and a person in a black wet suit and SCUBA gear swims out, toting an air-tight bag behind him. He swims toward the garden bubble. After observing the area, he passes through and lands on the ground. He unzips his tote bag and removes an MP5K-A4 sporting a side-folding stock and three thirty-round magazines clamped together on it. He sets it on the ground at his feet and proceeds to remove the diving gear. Afterward, he slings the MP5K by its three-point sling. He places his wetsuit into a sealable nylon bag and stashes it along with the SCUBA gear into a crevice behind a large rock formation. He covers it with brush. He shoulders the tote-bag and proceeds cautiously away from the bubble in search of his target, Jack Tortilini, a man who assassinated a government high-up in Callice a few months ago. Tortilini fled to the gardens to escape the wrath of the Callice government at least for a little while. The man here for Jack was a mercenary, Tom Fender, hired by the Callice government to track down Jack and bring him back to Callice for prosecution.

Tom heads up a hill toward a large waterfall after catching a glimpse of Jonathan and Fire sitting up there. He gets half way up the hill when Jonathan spots him. He signals to Fire about someone coming. They don their cloaks. Tom makes it to the top of the hill and greets them.

"Howdy," he says, extending his hand, "I'm Tom Fender." Jonathan takes no interest in shaking his hand; Fire does however. "I'm looking for someone--" He is cut off by Jonathan.

"We have seen no one," he reports.
"Oh," Tom looks at the ground then back up, "I guess you can't help me then."
