Forgotten Memory
Chapter One: Uninvited Guest
Karigan had settled in her room, and was now looking through an old diary from two years ago.
Dear Diary, May, 6
I met up with Jake after school again today. I helped him paint the spare bedroom at his house black and orange, his favorite colors of course. I expected him to be a little late today, considering he had his self-defense class to attend. But I was running a little late myself, and when i got to his house, i found him sitting on the front steps drawing some new way to make his robots. And yet again, his black hair was hanging in front of his right eye, completely blocking it from view. We were painting the spare room so he could actually have a place to design and build his robots and such. While we painted, we talked. About anything and everything really. Mostly i just listened to him. His voice was so silky and seductive; and yet, I'm guessing his voice could also tick people off at the ever-present calmness to it. what is really weird is that i don't even like him! I mean I like him, but just as a friend. I know a lot of girls are really rushing on him...but oh well. I wonder if he likes me? That's food for later thoughts.
Karigan
Karigan snorted out loud. Being 13 did funny things to your mind. Well, in about a month, I'll be wondering what the hell happened. She continued to flip through the pages until she found the entry she was looking for.
Dear Diary, June, 12
I have been violated by my closest friend. And we are friends no longer. I went over to Jake's house to help him with his robot drawings and stuff; but that wasn't what he had in mind. When I got there, he was carrying in a big box of metal scraps and such. He asked me if I could go get another box from the closet in his room. I went, and looked, but couldn't find another box; so I yelled back to him that there wasn't another box in here. Then i heard his bedroom door shut, and him reply with, "I know." I asked him what he was doing. He didn't answer, but approached me and swept me into his arms and a passionate kiss at that. I didn't object at first, I was too shocked. But then he made a big mistake. To my disadvantage, I was directly in front of his bed, and he pushed me down on top of it; with him on top of me. I tried to push him off, but considering I'm small for my age, and that he was three years older than me, that didn't work. Then he quickly tried to unbutton my shirt while I still silently protested. Finally, I had had enough. I rammed my knee into his balls and slid out from under him. I then kicked him onto the bed, gathered my things, and ran straight home. I told my mom, and she forbid me to ever see or talk to him again. I assured her I wouldn't even think about him. But now I'm not so sure that is as easy as it sounds.
Karigan
As it turned out, keeping Jake away was harder. One day, he even had the nerve to come up and whisper into Karigan's ear, "I want you, and I will stop at nothing to get what I want." Finally, Karigan's mother was tired of seeing her daughter in pain, so the two moved to Jump City. (Karigan's father had skipped town shortly after she was born. And her mother coped and became extremely independent, and passed that gene onto her daughter.) Karigan shut the diary and placed it back into the box she had found it in. "And till this very day. we have lived happy, peaceful lives." the raven haired girl said aloud.
BOOM! Karigan wheeled around, "What the--?" Another boom. Her mother screaming. Karigan ran downstairs to find a huge smoldering hole in the living room wall, and her mother half buried under drywall, bricks and the couch. Karigan ran toward her mom, "Oh shit." she said out loud. She felt for a pulse. None. The rubble's just blocking her air, that's all. But I've got to get her to the hospital, and fast! The 15-year-old pulled out her cell and dialed 9-1-1 while trying to move some of the debris. She explained the situation, "Yes, please hurry. I live at 211 West 10th Street!" she gasped into the phone. Damn, I never knew all of this crap could be so heavy! Karigan hung up the phone, (While the nurse on the other line protested) and felt for her mom's pulse again. Faint, but definitely there. Inside, Karigan was celebrating.
Then she heard a crash coming from the kitchen. 'Who's there?" Nothing. The teenager slowly made her way towards the kitchen. "Hello?" She looked around; still nothing. The raven haired girl crept quietly towards the back door, which was off its hinges. Then a tall, dark shadow loomed above her. Karigan whirled around only to be met by a seven-foot-tall robot with some kind of stun gun aimed squarely at her chest. "Oh, shit." The robot fired at the very same time Karigan tried to dodge it; and it ended up hitting her in the right shoulder and blasting her through the doorway where she landed sprawled on the cold, wet ground. Karigan got to her hands and knees and attempted to shake the stars from her vision. Then a large metal hand reached down, grabbed her shirt, and hoisted her off of the ground. Karigan's eyes widened as her feet failed to find safe ground. Then the moving machine spoke, "You are to come with me." Now Karigan was pissed. No one ordered her around without a good explanation. "Screw you, metal head." she spat. The hunk of junk showed no emotion, so Karigan tried kicking it. "Let--me--go!" She kicked it again. Damn that hurts. But instead of letting her go, the machine just slung her over its shoulder and started walking away from the house. Karigan felt extremely frustrated, and a little worried about her mother. Where the hell are the paramedics?
One little good thing that came from being friends with Jake was that you learned how to de-wire (AN: is that even a word? oh well...) almost anything with wires; and that with every robot, there always is a main system on the back of front where the robot can be shut down. Karigan looked at the things back, and to her luck, found a small button and pushed it. Two doors slid apart on the shiny, gray back. "Score." She whispered. "Ok, lets see, blue; no, red, yellow; no. Green, right on the money." Then she looked up, Damn, this things moves fast.
"Where are we going?" Karigan asked innocently.
"To my master." It replied.
"Wrong." And that very second, Karigan pushed the button to shut the two doors. She had been holding the green wire in the way so the sharp edges word splice right through it. The robots power system failed, and it stopped, dead, in its tracks. "We are going nowhere." Karigan told the dead droid, while jumping down from its shoulder. Then she kicked it over and pried the face plate off, just in case. Karigan then made a bee-line for her house, wondering the whole way what had become of her mom.
When Karigan arrived at her house, it turned out the paramedics had come. She went up to the nearest police officer and demanded to she her mother.
"I'm awfully sorry, darlin', but you just missed them. The ambulance took her to Jump City Medical Hospital. All I know was that she wasn't doin' so good. I can give you a ride there if ya'd like." The man offered.
"Thanks, but no." She replied, while running into the house. Screw that, I'll just drive. After all, I did get a permit for something like that. She quickly ran upstairs and grabbed the keys. The practically flew to the car, and drove maniacally to the hospital.
According to the gatekeeper, her mom was in room 214. Karigan tried to wait for the elevator, but being as impatient as she is, took the stairs at a flat out run. When she came to room 214, the doctor assessing her mother was just stepping out. He held up a hand that meant for her to halt.
"Your mother is alive, but barely," he explained, "She has slipped into a coma I'm not sure she'll be able to live through. But right now, all she needs is some peace and quiet. You should go home and get some rest, you look positively exhausted. If her condition changes, I'll notify at home."
"I--I won't be at home, but here is my cell number." Karigan replied numbly. A coma. Shit, that's serious. Karigan slowly made her way back to the car, and then back home, thinking all the way. That robot looked disturbingly familiar, and I know just the people who would know who sent it.
