I rubbed my hands as I finished with making the soap. It was true, now that they had both Sunny and myself we could go out and get the supplies the caves needed but Sunny was still anxious being away from Kyle too much and Ian still didn't like me going out for the sake of the others. I didn't mind of course but I hated arguing...or any sort of confrontation.
"Wanda?" Jamie's voice echoed through the room.
I smiled, "Yes, Jamie?"
"We need to go on a raid soon; Jared and Mel were wondering if you're up for it?" Jamie's voice was way too cheerful which instantly made me suspicious.
"You're going too?"
"Yep,"
"Who else?"
"Erm, well, you if you decide to come along, Ian, Brandt and Trudy," he said in a rushed voice due to his excitement. There was something else.
I frowned, "And from the other cells?"
"Oh! Yeah! Burns and Nate, just,"
Strangely this had the opposite effect on me. It had been a few months since we met Burns and the rest...or rather, been ambushed by them. Burns was from the Fire World and was very kind and gentle though extremely tall unlike myself who was extremely short. I still wasn't very used to this body. The long blonde hair, the grey eyes, the vertical challenge and just how overly small I was. It was just so innocent. Sometimes too innocent.
We'd been in contact a few times and I spent most of those talking to Burns about the different worlds out there and whether he'd been to any others apart from the Fire World and Earth. He was a very interesting soul to me. And I still liked how he phrased our...absence. Gone native. It made the betrayal I felt to our kind, easier.
"Wanda?"
"Hmm? Oh, sorry." I snapped out of my thoughts and smiled up at him, "I think I'll sit this one out,"
Jamie's face fell a bit and I instantly felt guilty. Maybe I should go with them.
"Okay, I'll go tell the others. I think they're planning on leaving as soon as the sun sets," Jamie bounded out of the cave.
I stood there and stared at the entrance, feeling the conflicting emotions inside of me. No matter how long I'd live on this planet, I know I'd never get used to the emotions.
Okay! Well, having seen the trailer for The Host and having read it I don't know how many times, I've decided to do a fic for it =)
I have read all of Stephenie Meyer's works and The Host is by far the best one and the one I will forever love. To me, the Twilight series holds no torch to it and many other series and it never will. Ever.
You have your opinions and I have mine, if you don't agree, that's fine.
Hope you enjoy the very short intro to this fic, it's not much but at least I could write something.
