Have you ever wondered about those who never open up to you? Well maybe it's because they're hiding something, and they don't want to scare, or hurt you. Lots of people or like that, but most times they aren't acknowledge for their problems unless they have too.

The place we're visiting is a lockdown center. Yes, I know it's weird, but that's where we meet those who are, different.

This specific lockdown center is what separates those who don't belong, and to keep them safe. They hold angles, goblins, trolls, and other creatures, but true fact they're all people who just chose the power in them.

This power is their self-spirit, and it's what makes them different from those who can't unlock that power.

A normal day at work for a 20 year old boy named Fo at the lockdown center. He usually was in charge of the power, and cameras.

"Why can't I do anything different," Fo asked himself as he was listening to music till someone stormed in. "What's up Dave?"

"One of those things tried to burn me," Dave answered upset.

"What cell are they in," Fo asked.

"They're not like the others," Dave answered looking at Fo. "She has a different cell in the courtyard."

"I didn't even know there was such a person out there," Fo said shocked.

"Yeah, and she tried to burn me again," Dave said looking at his hand upset. "I'm gonna ask the boss if I can switch jobs."

"You think he'll let you," Fo asked.

"Yeah, he just keeps switching out people, and I'll be the next one out," Dave answered leaning against a wall.

"Fo, can you come to my office," the boss asked in Fo's ear piece.

"I'm on my way," Fo said back. "Can you take my job for a bit, I've got to go to the bosses office."

"Yeah," Dave said taking Fo's seat as he left

Fo heads to the bosses office, which was on the top floor of the building, and knocks on the door, "I'm here sir."

"Come in," the boss said sitting in his chair.

"So, why did you call me up," Fo asked.

"Dave just quit his feeding job, so I was wondering if you would like to take it," the boss asked looking at Fo.

"But why me," Fo asked.

"Cause no one else wants to do it," the boss answered. "And you always look bored in your station, so this little girl might change that."

"Well I don't know," Fo said rubbing his head. "Everyone keeps saying she's dangerous."

"That's cause they're not her," the boss answered. "But you might relate to her more then anyone else here."

"Alright, I'll do it," Fo said determined.

"Splendid," the boss said smiling as he stood up, and walks to the window. "Now she's just over there in the courtyard."

"In that small black box," Fo asked looking through the window.

"It may look small, but it can hold two grown adults, but it's just only her in there, so it's pretty roomy," the boss stated. "Now go to the cafeteria, and ask for the meal of CY, the chef should give it to you. After that, give it to the girl, and if everything goes well, I'll give you a raise."

"Alright," Fo said walking out the door and heads to the cafeteria. "Um, I need the meal for CY."

"Didn't someone else take that," a woman asked behind the counter.

"I believe so, but the boss told me I'm taking their job now," Fo answered rubbing his head.

"Alright," the woman said handing Fo the food.

"Good luck with her," someone said.

"Yeah, she's pretty scary," someone else said.

"Not to mention, worse then any other creature here," someone else said.

'Why do they have to be so mean to her,' Fo thought as he left the cafeteria, and heads to the courtyard.

When he got there, he saw there was no one guarding her, and the food that Dave was supposed to bring her, was on the ground. He walks closer to the box looking cell, and lifts the top.

"Hello," Fo said looking in the box. "I'm here to bring you your food."

As Fo said that, a face began to appear, along with the body's and hair of a small girl.

"Who are you," the girl asked scared.

"I'm Fo," Fo answered. "What about you?"

"Coco," Coco answered.

"Sorry about Dave," Fo said setting the food in the box.

"It's fine," Coco said holding her knees. "They're all the same, and you'll leave me too."

"Why would I do that," Fo asked.

"Cause I hurt people," Coco answered sadly. "And I might hurt you."

Fo looks at Coco as she began to cry, but then suddenly climbs into the box with Coco.

"What are you doing," Coco asked with Fo hugging her.

"I won't leave you," Fo said holding Coco. "I promise."

"Really," Coco asked shocked.

"Really," Fo answered letting Coco go.

"Your really nice, you know that," Coco said smiling.

"I don't get that a lot," Fo said rubbing his head. "I'm usually cold, unless I don't have anything to say."

"I don't see why people think your cold, you have a warm heart," Coco said looking at her food and begins to eat it.

"And I don't get why people say the same about you," Fo said.

"It cause I'm different," Coco said eating. "You want some?"

"I shouldn't, it's yours after all," Fo answered declining Coco's offer.

"I know I don't get much to eat, but I want to give my friend some," Coco said holding it out to Fo.

"What do you mean this is all you get," Fo asked.

"I'm usually given just this for a full day, then I wait for tomorrow's food," Coco answered.

"Then I can't take your food," Fo said. "I don't want to be guilty if you get hungry."

"If fine, I've eaten less before," Coco stated still holding it out to Fo.

"I'm not doing it," Fo replied looking away from Coco.

"But I want you to have it," Coco said.

"Nope," Fo said still denying Coco's offer.

"Fine," Coco said in defeat as she finished her food. "So, will you visit me tomorrow."

"I have to bring you food, don't I," Fo answered smiling as he opened the box. "Well, see you later."

"Bye," Coco said smiling.

Fo shuts the box, and walks back to the door to see someone standing in the doorway.

"So how was the little girl," a guard asked.

"She was fine," Fo answered.

"That's what everyone thinks, then she loses it," the guard said. "So you'll just be like the rest of us who quit that job."

"No I won't," Fo said annoyed.

"You may think your tough, but your nothing to that little girl who has those powers," the guard said. "So just quit already."

Fo glares at the guard as he turns to walks away, "You mean, your nothing to her power?"

"What," the guard asked as he turned back to Fo.

"You heard me," Fo answered annoyed. "And I'm not gonna give up on her."

"Sure you won't," the guard said about to walk away.

"Say what you want, but I'm not as pathetic as you," Fo said annoyed. "And I'll prove it."

"We'll see," the guard said walking away.

"Wow, Fo you have some guts to talk to one of the higher guards like that," Dave said shocked.

"Why should I care about labels, he's just weak, and self absorbed," Fo asked walking back to the computer room.

"Cause he can tell the boss anything, and you'll be the one getting in trouble," Dave answered.

"I don't care," Fo said sitting in his seat. "I just care if he shows some respect."

"You know he'll never do that," Dave said.

"Then I won't care what rank he is," Fo said putting his earphones on again. "Well, I should get back to work, along with you."

"Right," Dave said leaving. "Well, see you later."

"Same to you," Fo said as he listened to his music, and did his job till his break. "Finally."

Fo gets up from his seat, and heads to the cafeteria.

"Fo," Dave said waving his hand.

"Hey Dave," Fo said walking over to Dave, and sits next to him. "So what's up?"

"Nothing," Dave answered. "You know, I feel bad for you, your always stuck in that computer room."

"I'd feel bad for myself too, but you get used to it," Fo said getting up. "I'll be right back."

"Ok," Dave said.

Fo buys some sweets, but instead of heading back to sit with Dave, he heads to the courtyard.

"Coco," Fo said lifting the lid to the box. "I'm back."

"Fo," Coco said happily as she reappeared. "Wait, why are you back?"

"Cause I wanted to give you something," Fo answered getting into the box, and puts the sweets in Coco's hands.

"What are these," Coco asked.

"They're sweets," Fo answered.

"I've never had one," Coco stated. "Are they good?"

"Depends on your taste," Fo answered. "But most of them are good."

Coco looks at the sweets, and opens a wrapped one. She then puts it in her mouth, as she did her eyes grew larger.

"I've never had anything so good, and sweet before," Coco said happily.

"So you like it," Fo asked.

"I love it," Coco answered.

"I'm glad," Fo said smiling.

"Why are you the only one who treats me like I'm a person," Coco asked sadly.

"You may look a bit different, but you're still a person," Fo answered.

Coco looks at Fo, and puts her hand on his heart, "Your special, like me."

"Yeah," Fo said looking away.

"But why do you not look like me," Coco asked.

"Cause I got something else from it," Fo answered.

"Can I see," Coco asked.

"Maybe on a different day," Fo answered. "Well, I've got to go."

"Ok, and thank you for the candy," Coco said smiling as Fo left.

Fo heads back to the cafeteria, and back to Dave, "Sorry, I had to do something."

"What were you doing," Dave asked confused.

"Can I tell you in the computer room," Fo asked.

"Yeah," Dave answered as he was pulled to his feet, and heads to the computer room with Fo.

"So I went to go see Coco," Fo answered.

"Who," Dave asked.

"The little girl in the courtyard, her names Coco," Fo answered.

"So you went to go see her," Dave asked.

"I also brought her some sweets," Fo answered.

"Are you allowed to do that," Dave asked shocked. "And what if someone else finds out you did that?"

"I know," Fo said. "But she isn't bad like everyone says."

"Not to be on everyone else's side, but how do you know," Dave asked.

"Cause I talked with her," Fo answered.

"You talked with her," Dave asked.

"Yeah," Fo answered.

"Well you have more guts then I do," Dave said. "I'm glad I quit that then."

"Wait, why," Fo asked.

"Cause your doing something then sitting in a room alone," Dave answered. "And your not making her alone anymore."

"I guess I have you to thank then," Fo said smiling, but hears the bell ring. "Back to work it seems."

"See you at closing," Dave said leaving.

"Same," Fo said getting back to work till closing.

When work was over, Fo headed out with Dave, but took their separate ways when going home.

"Hi Fo," someone said.

"Hi Veronica," Fo said shutting the front door. "So where's Cathie?"

"She's sleeping," Veronica answered.

"Then why are you still up," Fo asked.

"To tell you that foods on the counter," Veronica answered opening a soda.

"Thanks," Fo said taking the food.

"So, how was work," Veronica asked.

"It was good," Fo answered. "I'm finally doing something more then sitting in that computer room now."

"Really," Veronica asked. "What is it?"

"I'm feeding this little girl named Coco," Fo answered. "No one else wants to cause they think she's dangerous, but she's really sweet."

"Do you know what she is," Veronica asked.

"I'm not sure, but she put her hand on my heart, and told me I'm like her," Fo answered. "So I think she's like me."

"Look, now you have someone to relate to," Veronica said drinking her soda. "Unlike Cathie and me who are the angel and devil."

"Yeah, yeah, but when are you going to ask her out," Fo asked.

"Shut up," Veronica said throwing her empty can at Fo's head, but he catches it.

"I was just asking," Fo said finish eating and puts his plate in the sink.

Veronica looks away blushing, "I just haven't found the time."

"You will," Fo said walking to his room. "Well, night."

"Night," Veronica said watching TV.

Fo falls asleep, and dreams up a nightmare.

His heart burns to where Coco touched his chest, but her hand print was glowing blue.

"Your special, like me," Coco's voice said as fire surround Fo.

"I know I am," Fo said placing his hand on his heart.

"Look at that thing, isn't it disgusting," another voice said in Fo's head.

"Creatures like them shouldn't even be alive," another voice said.

Fo holds his heart, but then sees Coco holding herself on the ground with people pointing, and making fun of her.

"Freak," a voice said.

"Get lost," another voice said.

"Leave her alone," Fo said rushing to Coco, and holds her. "You aren't a freak."

"Then why does everyone hate me," Coco asked sadly.

"Cause they're stupid," Fo answered looking up, and sees someone holding a gun, then fires it at them.

Just before it made an impact, Fo shot up out of bed, covered in sweat, and wide eyes.

"Why did I dream of such a thing," Fo asked himself as he got out of bed to take a shower, and gets ready for work.

"Hey Fo," Cathie said cooking pancakes, and waffles. "So how did you sleep."

"Had a nightmare, but I should be fine," Fo answered taking several pancakes, and waffles, and puts them in a container. "Well, I'm off to work."

"But your going an hour early," Cathie said confused.

"I just want to get there early, that's all," Fo said leaving.

Fo heads to work, but goes to the courtyard, and goes to see Coco.

"Coco, you awake," Fo asked as he lifted the lid.

"Yeah," Coco answered as she sat up still tired. "Wait, why are you here so early."

"I came to eat breakfast with you," Fo answered getting into the box.

"Really, what did you bring," Coco asked.

"Pancakes, and waffles," Fo answered taking out the container holding them. "Here."

Coco takes a pancake out, and starts munching on it, "It's so soft, and tasty."

"You'll have to thank my roommate Cathie for making them," Fo said eating a pancake himself.

"Well, tell her thank you for me," Coco said continuing to eat the pancake. "Can I tell you something?"

"Of course," Fo answered.

"It was about the dream I had," Coco answered. "You were in it, and you saved me from these people who were making fun of me, but then there was this person with a gun."

Fo smiles, "Call me crazy, but I had that exact same dream."

"You did," Coco asked shocked.

"Yeah," Fo answered. "I guess I couldn't stop thinking about you, and what you told me."

"I'm surprised you still want to see me," Coco said. "Most people don't."

"And that's why I'm here, to give you what you've been missing all this time," Fo said rubbing Coco's head. "And like I said, I'll always be here, no matter what."

"Those words always bring a smile on my face," Coco said happily.

"I bet they do," Fo said handing Coco the container of pancakes and waffles. "Well, I've got to get to work, see ya."

"Bye," Coco said as she watched Fo lift the lid, and shut it.

Fo heads to the computer room, and gets straight to work like normal. Later, it was time for him to feed Coco.

"I'm here for CY's meal," Fo said happily at the chef.

"Here you go," the woman said handing Fo, Coco's food. "Why are you so cheerful?"

"This is just my favorite part of my job now," Fo answered smiling as he left, but heads to change his clothes.

He quickly gets out of his uniform, gets into his normal clothes, and rushes to the courtyard. He lifts the lid, and goes in.

"Fo," Coco said happily. "I'm so glad your back."

"Me too," Fo said handing Coco her food. "Works been boring lately."

"What do you do," Coco asked.

"I stare at a computer screen to check the power, and camera's," Fo answered.

"I can see how that would become boring," Coco said eating. "Oh, I saved some of the pancakes, and waffles for you."

"Really, thanks," Fo said taking one, and munches down on it. "Coco, what do you do when I'm not here?"

"I sleep, or talk to myself," Coco answered. "But that's it."

"Then I should bring you some things to do," Fo stated.

"Thank you, but you don't have to," Coco replied blushing. "Really, I don't want to be a bother."

"You won't be a bother," Fo said. "I just want you to have a little fun, like the rest of us."

"I'm glad I got to meet you," Coco said happily.

"Same here," Fo said lifting the lid open. "I'll be right back, ok."

"Ok," Coco said as Fo ran off to the computer room, and grabs a few things.

He runs back to the courtyard, and opens the lid, "Alright, so I brought you my headset so you can listen to music, a clipboard, some paper, pens, and pencils to draw. Tomorrow I'll bring more stuff, but this is all I've got for now."

"Thank you," Coco said taking the stuff.

"It was nothing," Fo said shutting the lid. "See you during my break."

Coco smiles as Fo shut the lid, and walks back indoors.

He heads to change back into his uniform, and goes back to work.

"Hope she likes the stuff," Fo said looking at the computers till his break.

"Yes," Fo said happily, but heard his boss call him up. "Oh, come on."

Fo goes up to his bosses office, and goes in.

"What is it," Fo asked.

"I've been watching you since yesterday, and I can tell your very found of her," the boss answered.

"Well, yeah, I'm stuck in that small room," Fo stated. "She actually brings me some joy in this job."

"I can tell, but I've also been noticing that you get into her cell," the boss replied.

"I know I shouldn't, but we have this connection with each other," Fo said. "And I just want to see her smile."

"I see," the boss said standing up. "Then continue what your doing, and you also have yourself a raise."

"I do," Fo asked shocked.

"Yes, your the only one who never ran from her, showed you'll continue this journey with her," the boss answered patting Fo on the back. "And that's what I'm looking for in a guard here."

"Thank you sir," Fo said bowing his head. "But I must be going, and check on Coco."

"Coco," the boss asked.

"It's her name," Fo answered heading to the door. "Well, bye."

Fo heads down stairs, but as he did the bell rang for their break to be up.

"Dang it," Fo said upset, but heads to the computer room, and back to work.

Through the rest of the day, he sat in his seat bored, and waited for work to end.

When it finally ended, Fo walked to the courtyard, and checked on Coco.

She was fast asleep, and was drawing something. It looked like her, and him smiling together.

Fo smiles, and covers her with a spare blanket he had brought, "Sleep tight."

"Fo," Coco said in her sleep.

Fo smiles as he shut the lid, and walks home to get some rest himself.

This continued for about several months, and every moment Coco and Fo were together, they got slightly closer.

"You must really like her," Dave said.

"She's fun to hang out with," Fo said. "I wish you would come with me once to at least say hi."

"I can't, I've got work to do," Dave said rubbing his head.

"I know, but like I said, she isn't bad, she just needs emotional support," Fo said walking to change. "Well, I've got to go and feed her now."

"Alright," Dave said watching Fo walk off.
