As Jacob walked away, Drexler called after him "And Jacob? The award ceremony will be held once the american pilots are back and rested.. be ready for it..." Jacob nodded and turned, walking through the blank corridor towards the infirmary. He had a slightly dazed look on his face. He walked into the military hospital, walking down along it untill he saw a familiar green haired woman. Juliane had the curtain drawn around it and was inside, throwing a ball against the wall. Jacob walked in and said "So how is the blind bat?" She turned, suprised and said "Jacob! Great to see you! and im fine thank you very much, not blind for that matter" She finished with gestureing towards her eyes. He chuckled and said "Then what the hell are you doing in here?" As he did so, he dragged a stool forewards, sitting down. She said in a hushed voice "I'm staying here as long as I can. Drexler is going to cut me in ribbions when I get out... One of the engineers examineine my plane found that I had taken my sun goggles off, as I always do when the main battle is over. Standard procedure is to have them on from take off to landing. So the whole thing is regarded as pilot error and im gona have to pay for it..." Jacob cringed and said "Nasty... Well, I would love to say I just came down here to say hi, but no. I need help. Serious help." She frowned and said catiously "What with?" Jacob scratched the back of his head and continued quietly "It's Drexler... Well... I think he is losing it.... he is so damned determined to actually fully destroy the dragons and get rid of them for good. But he wants it done now. You know how he regards me and the others on my team as the best... I have a feeling he is going to send me after The Earth King once we have recovered." Juliane let her mouth drop and she said "The ancient?" Jacob nodded gravely, not needing to explain his predickerment. She thought for a moment and said "Well... you hurt Inferno that time, remember?" Jacob shook his head and said "We killed his mate, not Inferno himself. The only reason we were able to hurt him was that he was irrationally attacking us. Add to that he was hit with Gridfire, as you should know, you fired it." Juliane nodded, biteing her lip... She wouldnt put it past Drexler to actually send him after either of the two Ancients, both of them being suicide to go near. She said "Doesn't he understand what these things are? I mean, on estimate, there is probably only like, 7 dragons this powerful in the entire world. We have two of them here and most likely another in Ireland." Jacob replied gravely "I think he knows exactly what it is. We can't even HURT them not to mind KILL them..."
Juliane rubbed her temples muttering "This is completely fu**ed.... You sure you have nothing that cant pound him?" Jacob shook his head and said "Nope... No new equipment since we lost the Irish research station..." Juliane snapped her fingers and exclaimed "Thats it! I heard a rumour from one of the officers in here, they saw that the communications tower got a coded message they think might have come from the Phoenix. That thing has never truely landed here so if they get it in, there might be some weapons on board that could help you out." Jacobs face brightened, he said "You really think so?" She said blankly "No, My guess is that its going to be completely useless and thrashed, but its worth a shot." He chuckled releaseing the tention built up inside his chest. He stood up saying "Alright then, see you around Julie" He lightly punched her fist and she said "I'll get out of here today some time and I'll make a note to get my hand on the Phoenix's report once it gets in. Cya around Jacob." He waved her off and walked away out of the Infirmary, passing men and women with horrible burns and gouldy wounds. It was a crime to have people like Juliane in here with nothing wrong with them when there was others on the verge of death there aswell...
