Damian smiled, "I'm a musician, and Cassia is a moocher." He said, laughing. What he said was slightly true, Cassis didn't have a job well at least not one that he knew of. Cassie looked at him from the corner of her eye and slugged him. "I'm not a moocher, I just make money a different way." She said and smiled slightly. She had been mooching off of Damian since she was ten and he got his first job. She would probably mooch off of him the rest of her life.

Tao laughed. " Ah...so how do you get your money then? " he asked smiling at her.
" Maybe she steals stuff..." Nicky said and narrowed his eyes. " Maybe I should check she hasn't stolen anything of ours? "
Tao stared at his friend in shock and hit him. " What the hell!!! First grumpy and not perverted?!" he said.

Cassie blushed and looked away. She never thought this conversation would turn into him wanting to frisk her. "I promise you I didn't take anything of yours." She said quietly. She didn't know what else to say. I guy had never touched her before besides Damian and they were only friends.

Damian glared at the two but couldn't hold back a smile. "You guys made her feel all awkward." he said jokingly. These two seemed fun to be around, complete opposites of each other.

Tao rubbed his fore head in embaressment. " I'm not surprised! He just said he should grope her! Seriously! What the hell Nicky?! " he then sighed. " Your really weird you know that?"
Nicky rolled his eyes. " So what? A man can't have a little fun? "

Cassie had a small urge to hit him but instead laughed it off. she didn't want to cause anymore problems or Damian might call her a child. "I would break your hands." She said jokingly but in the deepest part of her mind she wasn't joking. She was serious about breaking his hand.

Nicky smiled cheekily and looked at Damian. " Oh he's just upset because in high school he never asked out this girl..." he lied, just wanting to embaress his friend.
Tao glared at him. " Ugh! You still going on about that?! It was years ago! " he said angrily...

Cassie was surprised that Nicky could fine someone he actually liked. he seemed like an uptight guy with high expectations. She flt the coolness right before they entered into the shade of the trees. She loved it in here, all the nature. There was moss growing on trees, and long vine like leaves hanging from the trees. The grass was a darker color and was fuller looking then the grass outside of the woods. It always smelled better.

Damian sucked in a breath of air and smiled. "So why did you guys join the fight?" He asked, wandering what would make anyone fight to the death. It was cruel and war shouldn't be apart of everyones day life. It was twisted and it all started with religion. He wasn't hating on religion but people shouldn't go as far as killing people for it. It was complete murder.

Tao and Nicky looked at Damian. " Well..." Tao said. " I only joined to stop mr.crazy here getting killed...he's my friend and I don't want friends dying..." he said sadly.
Nicky then nodded. " I joined because I just...I was in trouble with housing and all that...was kicked out of my last home for 'letting my dog bite people'...I didn't even have a dog! " he said angrily. " Plus there are bonuses with being in the fighting...free home...free meal...respect..." he shrugged.

Damian grimaced, he hated sad stories they always made him feel dirty for living a good life. "That's terrible. Where are you staying right now?" he asked, wondering if they provided him housing even if he wasn't serving at the moment. He didn't know really anything about the army and all that but these two seemed to enjoy shooting people heads off so he wasn't going to question that part. That was the part that kinda scared him about these two. They had killed people and seemed perfectly find. No traumatic effect whatsoever.

Cassie stared up at Damian like he had just asked the stupidest question in the world. They already offended this guy once, a second time didn't seem all that smart in her opinion.

Both of the boys laughed. " The country gives us a place to stay! Near the army base..." Nicky said, laughing gently afterwards. " Do you guys know anything about the army at all? " he said before laughing once again.
Tao smiled. " I had the option to move out of my home...but I didn't fancy staying in one of those cramped houses that have several people in them..."
