[Azrael]

A lil poem i wrote BEFORE sept.11 but it has NOTHING to do with it. This was all fs and fs2 related but i have been told this can also be used for the terrorist attack. I wrote this during my times in the 79th Tango Squadron. If any of you have read the 79th's lil fan fic i wrote the too:P (a lil pimping of my own). Well without further ado here it is..any feedback is welcome...


I Was There
By Alan “Azrael” Meddley


I was there when the Demons came to consume us
I was there when we had new friends
I was there when the Demons were pushed back
I was there…

I was there through the torment and anguish
I was there when your back was against the wall
I was there when we were about to fall
I was there…

I was there when that sun died
I was there when millions of people cried
I was there with the heroes we lost
I was there when we remembered the cost
I was there…

I was there when you didn’t make it back home
I was there, but not all alone
I was there sad and proud
I was there when we knew we won
I was there.


Dedicated to Hawk, and many others who I can’t name specifically because I would need about 20 pages to write them (you know who you are). I love you all, and thanks for the support and inspiration you have given me.

You know Alan, I really dont like the screenname you chose, that is the same as a transport from freespace 1 which made absolutly no sense in the story... I mean you were capturing a Cain cruiser at the time... then it blows up... then suddenly "plunk", wasted cinimatic in the middle of nowhere!! What were you thinking?

[Azrael]

no that is just coincidence...im actually using the name 'Azrael' from the Azrael from teh batman comics...i was using that long time before i played fs1... but i thought it was nice :V: used my name in the game:P:P

Why not simply name your self after the original Azrael and be done with it?

Considering the meaning of the name I`m suprised that didn`t use it for something a little more scary than a troop transport.

[Solatar]

Shivan troop transports are scary as hell if you are on a capital ship. Can you imagine a troop transport docked with your destroyer, deploying loads of Shivans?

[karajorma]

True and I suppose in those conditions The Angel of Death would be a good name for troop transport except for one thing. I can`t think of a single occassion when the shivans boarded something in FS1 or 2 when they weren`t invited.
