Chaotic Heights
Location: Tricell research plant Alpha, Classified pinpoint, room 427
My eyes sleepily opened to metallic grey colors. Its mostly the color that I see every day since I was a little child. Lazily, I check on the time in the alarm clock on my end table. I groan. It was about 20 mins. Until 5 am. I was always a morning person but I wasn't keen on waking up very early. I try to close my eyes again for some extra time of sleep. As soon as I close them, I heard a door slide open and footsteps approach inside my room. I groan even more and tried to keep my eyes shut hard. I knew it meant wake up call for me but I wished it was just a dream.
"Mackie…time to wake up dear" A gentle female voice cooed
"1 hour more please…" I sleepily replied.
"Now Mackie you need to wake up and prepare for your daily routines. You know how it is with the higher ops when we disobey or even skip even a minute on our daily schedules" The female voice said to me, while nudging me to wake up
"….fine" I growled. I sat up and got rid of the sand in my eyes. I tried to adjust my blurry vision to be cleared from the drowsiness. I stared at my dull looking room that was just the right size. It only consisted of a bed, couple of shelves for books, a desk with some papers scattered and a simple, white colored laptop as well as a dresser on one side of the room that has all my minimal clothes. It's a very boring sight to wake up to and not exactly motivating.
"Did I ever tell you how much I hate waking up in a room that kind of looks like a prison?" I said to my visitor. She had a fair skin tone that matches with her long blonde hair and almond shaped eyes that were colored with the rich brown color of hazel
"I think it's just fine for you. Kind of suits your snarky personality. Besides, it doesn't look like a prison" She replied putting her finger in her lips, examining the room with mock enthusiasm
"Ha. Ha. You know you could just cut the crap about the room Noelle and as a matter of fact, a room being locked during sleep hours is close to a prison for me" I sternly stated. She laughed at my response.
"Oh shush. I just want to at least cheer your morning up. I am aware after all that you're really cranky when you wake up. Besides, it's for your safety my dear Mackie on why we lock the doors every sleep hours. We can't have you children running about the institution opening doors and going inside restricted sites" Noelle said as she went for my dresser and grabbed some clothes for me. I hated it when I get treated like a child
"Oh come on. I'm a good girl. I just want to explore someplace new. Being cramped up to limited places doesn't really give me any motivation for the day you know" I said to Noelle while I stretched off all the chinks of the evening sleep. It was always the same places for me. I have spent most of my days here in the Tricell research institution. Let me correct that, most of my life is spent here and I almost have no freedom here in the institution due to a certain program I'm in. Its always routine this, routine that. Its surprising how I'm not insane yet because of all the boredom.
Noelle comes back to me and handed me some clothes she got from the drawer. I scowl at her
"I can get them myself you know. I'm not a kid anymore" I growled. She just gave a smile. God her smile was so annoying yet so disarming.
"You still act like one though plus, we all know how lazy you can be at times" Noelle said
"Oh don't start that shit with me Noelle. I'm already 15 years old. That's technically womanhood at this age in time"
"Oh don't remind me Mackie! I remember when I handled you back when you were just a little girl. You grow up really fast. Now you're sort of tomboyish now with a big mouth full of shit. You should more lady like" Noelle sighed as she tried to stroke my cheek with her palm.
I gave her a stern look with that remark. I always found being sassy or 'lady like' as Noelle always put it is too girly for me. Some of the girls in the institution always tease me about it but it's not my fault I was exposed and grew a love for things that boys are usually associated with
"People grow up however they like and I'm fine as I am. As for my mouth, well its always dirty thanks to some of the things being done to me here" I replied
"I'm just afraid you might grow up a lesbian. Perhaps some mouthwash and hand soap should do the trick with your potty mouthing" Noelle said with a laugh
"Hey! At least I know I'm still a girl and still act like it at times. Also, you were the reason for my potty mouthing" I said with a laugh of my own
"You were always very curious and sneaky in listening. You should get dressed now. It's almost time for your check ups and exercise. Get dressed and let's have some breakfast" Noelle said
I grabbed the clothes she gave me. It was your usual clothing. Plain, grey sweats and a black tank top for training and workouts, a black long sleeved, form fitting jumpsuit with white highlights and lining that just ends below my knees for my daily clothes, and of course, my underwear. I got dressed in my training wear. I noticed Noelle looking at me intently as I got dressed
"Your tits are getting bigger Mackie. I should request for a bigger cup size for your bra" She said with a sly smile. I felt my face go red and instinctually cover up my chest
"Mind your own tits will you?! I'm still getting used to all this hormonal and puberty shit!" I growled at her. She just laughed even more and I just proceeded to finish off getting dressed. I grabbed my bra and hooked it up but I had a hard time in doing so. Every time I hook it, my breasts get squeezed hard. Noelle laughed even more as I struggled
"Told you dear Mackie. Maybe I can get you some new ones with bigger cup sizes later on" She sang
"Can we just go already and start the day?! Talking about my fat sack isn't exactly my type of way to start a day" I replied as I firmly hook the bra in place and then put on my tank top. I packed my other clothes for later in a small knapsack and carried it
"Let me hold out your bag for you" Noelle insisted
"No thanks. I can take care of it" I replied
"Come on Mackie, you know the institution rules…"
I sighed. It was probably one of the most stupid rules I have ever heard in my life in this places
"All pupils are not to have any excess physical strain in their bodies" I stated in a deadpan tone
"Good so let me just grab that…"
"But I just don't get it. It's not like the bag has concrete on them to make us tired of carrying it. You know how much I hate being treated like a little kid" I reasoned
"You know how it is in this places. They're a little paranoid about things, especially to you kids and on what you do here. In my opinion, I want to follow them as well so that you won't experience too much stress during your sessions" She replied with a concerned look in her eyes. I gave in and gave the very light bag to her and made our way. The metallic, grey door slid open automatically and made our way outside the corridors. The corridor was wide and had doors the same as my room arranged in an orderly fashion. Above us, pipes that contain who knows what gas or liquid hung. I wonder what will really come out of them if they crack. Each door has lights on them above the doorframe. My light was lit up red, meaning that no one was inside and it would light up green when someone was occupying the room. This was the institution's way of tracking us if we were sneaking off somewhere in the institution. As if there was any other place they can go to other than the deep inside of the institution. The lights were still green. It was understandable considering I woke up minutes earlier than them. The usual wakeup call was 5 am.
"Are you kidding me? Don't tell me you woke me up earlier than the call time again" I said with a scowl as I looked at her
"Early bird always gets the worm! Besides, it's easier for us to use the training facilities with less people. Plus, it would mean we get to finish earlier" She reasoned with her oh so sweet smile
"But won't that make you get in trouble? You also know the rules for waking us up to early or too late" I said, concern now plastered in my face. The rules in the institution are always strictly followed and severe punishments are to be given to those who will always disobey it. One such rule was about waking us institution pupils at the right time. Not too early, and not too late. There was a set time for us to wake up and waking up even for just a minute late can lead to certain consequences for either the pupil or the handler or even both.
"I can manage what they give me. I have been here for a long time after all. Besides, it's not a crime if you're not caught" She said cheerily. I laughed at that remarked and smiled at her. Despite being annoying sometimes, I can't bring to completely hate her. Every pupil of the institution has their own handlers: guides on daily activities. They serve as our mentor for certain things and to keep us in check on everything, including out of trouble. Noelle had been my handler since I can remember stuff. She was the type of person that was ditzy at times and had a love for comic books and anime. She can be childish sometimes despite her being in her 20's already. She treats me with extra care all the time much to my and some peoples annoyance but she was always loving to everyone around her, especially me and secretly shares her comic book and anime collection to me in secret, which was considered contraband in the institution which sole focus for its pupils was their training and studies. I'm not her only pupil though. There are times that the pupil population was just growing too big and thus, multiple pupils have to be handled by a single handler in controlled numbers of course
We walk through the end of the corridor and came across an elevator that has a glass door. The elevator chamber was circular and was black colored. We slid off inside and went down as Noelle pushed a button marked with the initials, TG. It stood for training grounds.
You may be wondering who am I and what I'm talking about. Well my name is Mackenzie Adams but people from around here refer to me as Mackie because a lot of people refer to Mackenzie as a mouthful. My whole life had begun here in the Tricell Research Plant Alpha or to be specific, the Tricell Institution for the Specially Gifted or the TISG. For us however, we refer to it to just the institution for convenience. Tricell is a pharmaceutical company that focuses on biological and technological advances. It aims to prosper extreme evolution for all of mankind. What was this institution focused on and its relation to Tricell's goals? Well it focuses on youths born with special gifts. By special gifts, I mean kids and teens with supernatural powers. None of us are born here as having super powers already. The institution simply finds that we have what they call the Eximius Gene. According to the institution, certain people around the world are born with it and if tampered properly, can give out extraordinary abilities to whoever have them. Whatever ability that will appear is random. You can't choose the ability you will get. The institution claims that they only take pupils who are orphans or abandoned by the parents by birth. Noelle told me that I was here ever since I was only on the wee age of two. That I was orphaned at the very young age because my parents died because of an accident and the institution found that I had the Eximius gene. I really don't recall however. I was in fact, was just a kid back then so I don't remember much. If it wasn't obvious already, yes I have the Eximius gene and the good ol' doctors of the institution have already tampered with it.
It took no time for us to reach the floor for the training grounds. Back when I was young, the high speed elevator always made me nauseous and at times, made me vomit out whatever dinner we had but now with the training I had over the years, my gut was made stronger as were my other bodily functions. The training grounds floor was a large cavern like corridor that was located deep underground. The temperature here was hot and the air smelled of talc and disinfectant. I wouldn't be surprised because the training ground was built close in the sanitation furnace and sewage system, which is a very idiotic placement to begin with. We proceeded to the door on the far right. The door was labeled 'training ground 3'. The door opened automatically as we neared a certain distance in front of the door. Inside, various equipment for every form of exercise were present such as treadmills, weights, stretch machines as well as some practice weapons for various forms of martial arts of our choice. I usually use all of them since I opted to try every martial arts lesson available much to the astonishment of the instructors here. I'm the type of person that is not satisfied with learning just one thing only. I wanted to learn everything that there is and that includes different ways on how to fight. Every attack after is countered by different measures after all. I also wanted to learn a lot for a certain reason as well. We weren't alone inside. There were already four individuals already warming up for their training routines. I smiled at them but at the next moment, scowled at Noelle
"You also woke them up early?" I asked with a raised eyebrow
Noelle just shrugged and gave her usual cheery smile
"They are in my care now like you are. So why not include them in our fun hm?" Noelle said. Well she does have a point. It's better to train along with other people especially if your closest friends are the ones you have to be with. They waved for me to come over to them and I did. These four are my best friends. We've known each other since we were kids and raised in the institution together. It took no time for us to be friends. They were Liana, Sadie, Jared, and Lucas.
Liana was the raven haired, pale skinned girl who was always outgoing and optimistic, maybe even more optimistic than Noelle at times and was thrill seeking nut or thrill nut as she claims. Sadie on the other hand, was the opposite. She was a bit timid and is easily startled at times but given if you become close and gain her trust, she's probably the sweetest thing to anyone. She's also the youngest in our group, only in the tender age of ten and she also has the weird feature of having greenish blonde hair. Jared is Sadie's older brother. He's the kind of guy who has over the top confidence, especially on himself. Perhaps it came from his fascination and interests with anything classed as nerdy. At least for most of the pupils. I found his nerdy tendencies interesting. Lucas was the mysterious one of the bunch. He's usually silent and meditates on one corner. This was because of his zen practice but when with us, he's no stranger in making some noise but the Hispanic boy was still, mostly quite
"Morning guys!" I said to them as I gave them a group hug
"Top of the mornin' to yah Macks!" Liana said in her weird quirky tone.
"Morning to you too Mackie…" Sadie said sheepishly as she took in a deep breath and yawned. It's obvious she was woken up against her will by the ever ditzy Noelle
"Wow Sadie, you look like you haven't slept in days and you Liana, are the complete opposite" I said to them
" Well what can I say? I'm positivity powered! But I am worried about dear Sadie here. Have the…."
"Nope. Just couldn't sleep. I'm fine regardless. I'll be fine" Sadie replied quickly. I have to speak to her more about it. It may have something to do with 'certain things'
"Hey what about us? Aren't you going to ask if we slept well?" Jared said in an exasperated tone
"Oh please! We're used to you looking like shit in the morning. We know what to expect" I said and that got a laugh from both girls.
"Why must you be so mean to me? Come on Lucas, defend me on this pal" Jared said looking on to Lucas who just smiled
"What's to defend my dear friend? Its true anyway" Lucas replied with a smile and that made us laugh even more. Jared gave us each a scowl
"No Justice whatsoever!" Jared exclaimed
"How about you Lucas, slept well today?" Liana asked with her beaming smile
"Yes. Quite well and peacefully" Lucas calmly replied. Lucas had dark fair skin and curly hair as well as big muscular arms. You would mistake him for a brute at first glance but when you get to know him, he is quite peaceful and calm.
"Really?! You guys really skip me?!" Jared said. We really love to tease him that much
"We'll talk to you more when you shut up more. You're a blabber mouth sometimes" Liana retorted. Sadie smiled warily at her brother who was now seething.
"Um guys? You do realize we have a schedule here?"
Noelle approached us and gave us a stern look with a smirk mixed with it. She really tends to have an effect of making people quite
"Now, if you're done with blabbering about how you guys slept well, can we proceed with our daily workout? If we start now, we get to have a lot of free time" Noelle chimed
All of us agreed on that because more free time means more time for each other. Life in the institution is very boring but being with people who you can feel comfortable with can really make the boring ambience be worthwhile. It's one of the only few happiness that I have in this boring life
"I'm still surprised that you took us in Noelle. After all, it is hard to handle more than one pupil in the institution" Jared said with concern
"Yeah. Considering how we can be a mess together, you might age faster and that's saying somethin'" Liana added. She always did admire how she looks young even when she was really old
"Oh that's more than fine for me! I'm strong and I can handle little rascals like you guys plus, I can't leave little old Sadie now can I?" Noelle said as she brushed Sadie's head lightly, which made Sadie giggle
"But still, this might make you get tired more" Liana stated
"Oh shush! Mackie here is already a nutcase I have to worry about and I survived. What can 4 other nutcases be any harm?" Noelle replied as I gave her a scowl. That got some laughs from the others though except for Jared who only had a poker face to show.
Noelle started out with only me as her pupil. Back then, the others had their own handlers. Sadie and Jared however, shared a handler because they were siblings. But due to some increasing workload with other projects, an increase of staff had to be involved and their handlers were put in to action and had to abandon them. They were going to be put with other handlers but Noelle volunteered to take them in along with me, much to the worry of the higher ops. She did this because she always wanted me to have friends and when I did made friends with the four of them, Noelle learned to love them as much as she loved me. Plus, she wanted me to be with company from time to time. I was a big loner back then.
"Let's get all settled now shall we? You guys know your programs already. Come on now get starting. You know how hard it is to have a workout when the training grounds are packed" Noelle said and so we proceeded with our daily exercise. Liana and Sadie did jogs with 20 laps around the training grounds, Jared did some weight lifting exercises, and Lucas went for the punching bag. As for me, I started off with my jump rope exercises. I don't like it that much since I think its too girly but beggars can't be choosers. Doctor's orders
Half an hour later, the other pupils had arrived for their own workout programs. Most were surprised to see us already inside and doing our work. The other handlers looked disapprovingly at Noelle. They don't like it whenever Noelle did this to us because they see it as breaking the rules and possibly endangering the health of the pupils. She just gave them her usual smile and proceeded on in coaching us. She's so used to this that the mean looks are nothing to her now. I looked over them and they looked away. Good. I have built a reputation here in the institution over the years. This was mostly due to my Eximius abilities. Basically, my ability was that I can take on the attributes, abilities, and features of everything I touch, may they be living or non-living. Its kind of complicated. Its like for example, I touch let's say a snake. When I touch it, I gain its super flexible abilities or get super agility and jump higher when I touch a monkey or shoot electricity from my hands when I touch something with electricity, can turn my hand solid as a rock, and so on. Basically, I call myself an adapter or a universal everything in the words of Liana. Some respected me for that, some feared me, and some also resent me for it. I remembered back then when I first showed to everyone my powers. A lot got scared and hated me because of it. I'm just glad that people like my friends learned to really know me. They sort of gravitated towards me to
Liana herself has telekinetic powers. She can lift up objects with her mind and can also read other minds and detect emotions from others. Because of her powers, you really can't tell a lie on her and she will know what you really feel no matter how hard you try it. Plus, she always pulls pranks on the other kids with her powers; us included
Sadie can blend in on her surroundings. She's basically a human chameleon and she can be hard to find when she uses it. It kind of suits her actually. She's so timid and shy that she always gets picked on by the other kids, especially the mean ones. There are times she hides within us for support but whenever she's alone, she runs of to some place and turns invisible and it really doesn't take us a hard time to find her. You just have to follow the sobs. If it wasn't for the institution rules, I have beaten up the mean kids in retaliation
Jared shares my sentiments with this. Now he has technokinesis. He can control any electronics device and even create his own devices if given certain parts. Now he is always keen in using his powers. He would try to hack security panels to enter restricted sites or just get some extra snacks in the pantry, in which he was always caught and gets punished which were usually latrine duty in some facilities but there were times he got some severe punishments that got him to shaken and made Sadie even more paranoid
Lucas had the power of teleportation. He can move instantly from one place to another but he can only do that within a certain radius. Because of this, he was given a bio suppressor that he wears like a bracelet that limits his powers so he won't go teleporting anywhere in the institution or worse, go outside. For me, I thought it was unfair but Lucas insisted that it was okay and if it is needed, he will embrace it. He was always the nice guy of the bunch. Always following and accepting rules but we kind of try to seduce him in going to our excursions from time to time
As we finish up our last sets in our workout, we signaled Noelle that were done and bided us to come to her
"Alright guys! Base on your performances, I think you're all very fit and got tired less. That was a great improvement from last time
"Are you kidding me? Jared still can't keep up with all the pressure" I said smirking in Jared's direction
"Why does it have to be a lot of movement involved? I'm a thinker not a puncher!" Jared retorted between breaths
"Well you really need to suffer once in a while to achieve the goals that you have" Lucas calmly stated
"Well that's nothing for you. I mean, look at your muscles!" Jared replied
"What about them? They are already big as long as I remember" Lucas said with a grin
"Lighten will you Jared? You have big muscles too" Liana said. Both of them have muscular bodies for their young age and this was due to their training and exercise over the years but Lucas had bigger muscles to begin with even when we first met him.
"I just don't get it. Big muscles means bigger endurance right? That's what I've read at least" Jared said
"Big muscles just make you bulkier and maybe perhaps give you extra lifting power but it has nothing to do with your endurance. You have to have proper cardio to have good endurance – like your sister" I said looking over at Sadie who was beaming shyly. For a ten year old, she was fit for her age and she was the fastest out of all of us. Liana and I is a good second. When it comes to endurance
"Mackie's right. We have to have balance of cardio and body mass for our bodies. Tipping one of these scales can cause imbalance in your fitness" Noelle stated
"Well I have no problems with that, especially Mackie" Lucas said with a smug grin to Jared
"Now that you mentioned balance, Mackie does show that exact balance" Noelle said with a curious look at me
"Oh come on! There's nothing special about my body fitness" I said with a stern look
"You kind of do Mackie…you are very fast and strong in lifting heavy stuff" Sadie said timidly
"I'm actually envious of it sometimes on how she maintains such a body" Jared said looking down at me from head to toe
"What do you envy? Her perfect curves? Her big tits? Or both? Liana said with her goofy smile and that got everyone laughing except me
"Liana! Why include my tits on this?! Mind your own!" I said with a scowl and they just laughed even more. Aside from these annoying fat sacks that seem to mysteriously grow bigger every second, I have what doctors and handlers say, a perfect level of fitness. Sure I had a good amount of muscle mass but not that many. Too much muscle mass can slow you down and I want to be fast and strong built as well like my heroine –
"If I recall, training grounds are for trainings and workouts and not for messing around"
I scowled. We looked on to the direction of where the voice came from.
"Oh hello there Dana. What do you want?" I said in an annoyed tone. Dana Stilton is probably the most prideful person I have ever met. She always boasts of what she can do and how she always sees to it to make everyone feel that she's better than all of us. She, along with several of her Posse are complete bullies too. I had some trouble with her but I made sure to always fight back. She has long blonde hair that was tied up to a bun, prominent cheekbones that surprisingly frames her face perfectly. What really stands out to her was her arms. They were so bulky and huge for a girl. There were even some veins visible from there.
"Just reminding you that you should all be training and not goofing off" Dana said with a scowl on her face. The others looked on to her with contempt except for Sadie. She looked on with fear in her eyes. Dana was one of her major bullies in the institution
"Well for your information Da-numb! We're just about done unlike you. You shouldn't be slacking off you know" I said with a smirk. That got her as she made an irritated groan in her mouth. I really loved winding the bitch off
"I would have finished immediately if it weren't for you guys. There is just no day that you guys annoy me" Dana seethed
"Same goes for us Dana. The sight of you is just so freakish I could puke" I replied
"We even wish we can just unsee you" Liana added which made me chuckle
"Are you asking for a fight Mackenzie? I could cream you and your friends right here right now" Dana said she strode forward, closing the space between us. Everyone close to us got some apprehensive looks. They showed worry that a fight would start and that might just happen. Good thing that its just us having trouble here. The other pupils are too busy with their programs to notice us. I don't want any extra attention
"Hey knock it off Dana. You know how we don't condone that kind of behavior here" Noelle said interrupting us
"Oh please! As if you haven't broke some house rules Noelle. Don't attempt to be a saint here" Dana retorted and that got Noelle taken aback. She's getting on my nerves now
"Leave us alone Dana or I'll take action and you know it" I said to her with menace in my tone. This isn't the first we have face offs with Dana like this. I want to avoid trouble but if it can't be really be avoided, I won't run from it. Her Eximium abilities is supernatural strength. Once in a demonstration class, she lifted three full grown cows as if they were pillows. She also has a belief that with bigger arms, her strength would increase more hence, the monstrous biceps. She's the kind of person who thinks power is everything and those types of people are always bad news. I'm not scared of her strength though. She only knows how to punch hard. I know how to do different styles of combat
"Dana, we don't want any trouble. Stand down" Lucas said slowly as he looks at her with a stern face: a warning.
"Ever get sick of being in trouble?" Jared said but received a glare from Dana followed by flexing her arm, readying a punch at any moment
"Freak arms!" Sadie shouted
Dana heard this and it ticked her off more. She looked from me to Sadie and I don't like then glare she gives her
"Freak arms pipsqeak? Maybe you want to be served fist breakfast first then" Dana said as she cracks her knuckles in front of Sadie. The little kid in turn, became invisible. She could have stayed invisible completely had it not been for her clothes. They don't go along turning invisible with her
"Hurt her and you face me head on" I say to her
"Count me in!" Liana said as she strode forward
"I don't condone this but oh well" Lucas said going forward as well
"Guys! Be sensible! Let's not start a problem here!" Jared exclaimed. He always did worry about being in trouble especially involving me and Dana. I feel Sadie cling to me even harder and Noelle had a worried expression on her face. I look back at Dana and it looks like she's about to make a move. I admit, I want to punch her as well but I want to avoid it more.
"Dana Stilton! What is the meaning of this?!" A voice boomed from our side
A tall with dark fair skinned woman approached us. She had eyelashes that were quite long and has ash blonde hair that made it look like its shining when you aim some lights on it. She had a very pointed nose and tits that seemed way too big for a woman to have
"Hello Maryse…" Noelle said with a stern voice. Maryse is Dana's handler as well as several others who were as mean as her. While Dana looked more masculine for a woman, Maryse is a very feminine and really showed it off. She wears her standard handler jumpsuit uniform but had altered it to be very form fitting. I looked over the boys and I could see Jared having his mouth gaping at the sight of Maryse in contrast to Lucas who was not affected by the sexy figure. I found that kind of body form very weak
She ignored Noelle and proceeded to give Dana a disapproving look
"Now Dana, what did I told you about picking on people?" Dana inquired
Dana gave me another scowl but unclenched her fists
"Don't pick on anyone unless they're worthy of my fists" Dana replied still looking at me
"And are these….people worthy even of your presence?" Maryse inquired
"No….not at all" Dana said with venom in her tone
"Good to know you remember what I said. Save your strength for those who are with class" Maryse said looking at us now with a rather creepy and annoying smile
"You know Maryse, I expect you to be in control of your pupils with your caliber and whatnot" Noelle said in a slight cheery tone but I can detect that she had it mixed with contempt
"I am in control of them Noelle. How about you? You handle these kids as if they're uncivilized"
"Uncivilized?! Dana was the savage a while ago!" I replied
"Atatat…you are not to speak unless allowed to. I am only talking to your handler comprende?" Maryse said. That got my blood boiling. If there was one person who I hate other than Dana, it was Maryse. I unconsciously lifted my hand but two hands reached out to stop my hand. It was Liana. She shook her head, indicating that I should keep my cool. I also felt that Sadie was holding on to me even more.
"Leave one of my protégées alone Noelle and keep your own kids in check. As for you Dana, we need to talk later. And Noelle…..you will get in trouble soon for violating wakeup call rules. It applies to everyone including your rejects. I'll take my leave. Au revoir"
Maryse turned away and I wanted to punch her and Dana so bad. I tried to charge but Noelle and my friends kept me restrained
"Forget it Mackie…keep it cool girl" Liana said
"I just can't stand it when she always does that! You all know how I feel when we get picked on"
"We do..we really do but getting into trouble will only give us more trouble than peace"
"Liana's right Mackie….I don't want fights to happen too…" Sadie said who was now visible again
"Calm your feelings. It's just your emotions overflowing" Lucas calmy stated
"I believe we can take them with our powers Mackie but sometimes it's the coward's way that's the best to take" Jared added
I calm myself down and let my anger subside. It wasn't really worth it to pick on fights especially this early in the morning
"Those two just gets on my nerves" Mackie said
"Anything just irritates you huh dear Mackie" Noelle said as she smiled.
"How can you handle that Maryse during your handler meetings? She has some sort of superiority complex" I asked
"Well that's my little secret. As for maryse, we just ignore her superiority rants" Noelle replied
"And how dare she says we're rejects! I'll show her!" I said. I noticed at the word reject, Sadie flinched. She always hated that word and how she was picked on because her powers were just for hiding
"No need for that. We all know who we are. Besides, our powers are waaaay cooler than theirs" Liana said
"But my powers…" Sadie started but I interrupted
"Are cool too Sadie. Even if it just turns you invisible" I interrupted. That made Sadie smile and perhaps got her hopes up again. No way will I make her, and any of my friends feel bad among themselves. Noelle and Liana gave me a nod of approval on what I said
"Don't forget our martial arts training as greater than theirs as well" Jared said
"I might reconsider yours though" Lucas said and that made us chuckle.
"Liana's right. We're rejects if we only think ourselves as rejects. Let's live our lives the way that shows the opposite of what they said" I say to them and they all voiced their approval and seemed to made them feel better. I don't want us to be let down by others. By my rules, we won't be shaken
We heard a beep and Noelle looked over her watch
"Oh my! Shush now kids. It's time for our early session with Dr. Shane"
We groaned. Dr. Shane is a very good and kind doctor but the tests that he and the other doctors do are quite tiring and painful to endure and we always do it 5 times a month
"Do we have to have checks? Its makes us tired quicker than usual" I said
"I hate stress tests with doctors!" Jared said
"But Dr. Shane makes it less painful for us" Sadie said
"Well you have a point on that. He does have ways to make it endurable" I say
"And fun at the same time! I mean, who gives out free food and secret stuff after every stress test" Liana said with the secret part being said quietly. Aside from Noelle, Dr. Shane was our main provider for contraband stuff and hidden treats
"Let's go now so we can be done early and I know you will be having fun with today's session" Noelle said
"How can you tell? Does he have some goodies for us again?" I whispered
"Better than that…he accessed some online videos again and we saved up videos of the outside world, including latest adventures of Fusion for you guys to watch" Noelle whispered
That got us excited. We tidied and showered ourselves and got dressed in our jumpsuits and went on with Noelle to go to Dr. Shane's lab. We get excited with the goods Noelle and Dr. Shane gives us but nothing excites us more than having us show us what its like in the outside world and of course, seeing our heroes in action: Fusion. I can't wait to see and try out the moves of each and every one of the Fusion members. Especially Hit Girl
