The Captain nods. "Your shuttle leaves for the Victory in 24 soldier. You're on leave until then. Say your goodbyes - it'll be at least 6 months before you're dirtside again."
(Balus and Krystal)
You arrive at the Walkir's apartment, the security system acknowledges Balus and lets him in. The door to the home proper simply requires a knock.

Krystal waiting for Balus to either knock or open the door goes over her coveralls one more time to ensure she is neat and perfect. To make sure she pulls out a wet wipe and quickly goes over her face and hands. When she is done she takes a really deep breath and stops breathing altogether in anticipation.

" Relax, you look great." Balus said without thinking as he pushed the door open. " Mom? Dad? anyone home?" He called out as he entered, beckoning Krystal to follow. " He hoped they weren't watching the news.

Krystal follows behind Balus entering into the house which is probably bigger then anything she had having always followed Richol who worked on the ship or had a small flat big enough for the two of them. She has probably not even seen a place this big to live in having never really made friends other then mechanics or children where Richol was stationed. And even then it was usually far between.

Upho nods, "ok sir, thank you sir."
He waits for the Captain to leave before heading back on his way again.

You are given a 24 hour leave - you can go wherever you wish.
(Balus and Krystal)
The door opens and Balus' parents are there. His mother looks over his bruises. "What happened?" Krystal, they seem not to even notice you yet.

Krystal stands behind Balus having not been introduced yet. She does glance around the lace while smiling at the seemingly she imagines motherly thing that his mother is doing. She is actually mildly jealous as well, her never knowing her mother but that passes quickly. Specially because Richol did such a good job as both and if he did not the mechanics under his command did.

" It's okay, mom. No big deal." Balus blushed at his mother's fussing. " Mom, Dad, I brought someone I'd like you to meet. " He stepped out of the way," This is Krystal. she's part of the maitenance crew aboard the Victory."

Krystal realizing that Balus just stepped out of the way and introduced her almost seems to snap to a more rigid form realizing this meeting made her more nervous then she thought. "Good Afternoon Mr. and Mrs. Walkir. It is a pleasure to meet you?" She smiles while offering her hand out to the two of them.

After getting changed into civilian clothing, Upho is walking outside the base, when an unfortunately familiar black aircar pulls up beside you, the tinted window rolling down.
"Hey Uppie - still making the folks proud?" It's Nardan Krell, one of your old "Buddies" from basic training. He washed out at the advanced level and left the service, probably because he was as corrupt as you could imagine - smuggling drugs and helping to stir "purebred" fanaticism among the normal troops. You haven't much about him since he left, but what you had heard was not good - his own drug ring, possible connections to The Burning Scythe, starting up his own "Pure Seeron" branches. You didn't know what to believe.
(Krystal and Balus)
Balus' mother tries to get him to sit on the couch so she can more properly treat his bruises. Balus' father looks to Krystal. "Pleasure to met you, ma'am. Please come in."

Upho cringes as her hears the nickname, he came to hate in basic. He looks at the car and says, "hey Krell, what brings you here, thought you said you didn't want to have anything to do with the military anymore."

"Why thank-you." As she enters into the house of Balus. She takes all of it in looking around to see how it is set up. She is still self concious as everyone here is dressed so nicely...well nicely compared to her. She takes that moment to straighten out her clothes because where the father did not notice or care the mother probably will.

"Mom," Balus half whined at his mother's fussing even as he sat as he was directed to," cut it out. You know I heal fast. Look, the cut on my lip is already closed. Tell her, Krystal. It looks alot better now, right?" He looked at her for help to escape the mothering.

Krystal is not sure if coming to his defence is the best thing to do as it probably would provide some amusement to this uncomfortable situation. "Mrs. Walkir, far be it for me to disagree but does heal fast. Almost as fast as I can. And he was doing good when he received that..." She trails off not knowing if she should have said anything or not so she tries to change the subject, "This is a beautiful house you have here!"

Balus gave Krystal a look, but then smirked," You're alot of help. Oww!" He shirked away from his mother, half laughing. " Stop it mom, would you? I might not be able to get hurt easy, but when I do it's the same as anyone else. Look, I'm a soldier now, remember? I'm going to get hurt every now and again."
