Hi, proud cahill here! This is first fanfic so please review! WARNING: I am terrible speller, so ignore the spelling mistakes if any. Enjoy!
Ryan's POV
I woke up in an uncomfortable helicopter seat, along with a rather nasty headache. I quickly observed the inside of the passenger area, trying to ignore the nagging pain in my head. The only thing I could really get answers from was a girl sitting in another seat, about a meter from my own. She looked up at me with rather cat-like eyes as soon as I had awoken. She glared at me, even though I had done nothing apart from looking around.
'Do you know what we're doing here?' she demanded. I couldn't really form an answer, because I couldn't help but notice that she was, well, beautiful. Short, spiky, golden brown hair surrounded a smooth, slightly tanned oval face. I couldn't see any spots and, of course, there were her yellowy-green eyes, hard as stone, glaring at me. 'Well?'
I answered with a very sophisticated, 'Um…no?'
She sighed and went back to what she was doing. Trying to pick the seatbelt's lock. I couldn't help but admire the way her long, smooth fingers bent paper clips this way, and that, until there was a small click! and she was free. She stood up and turned to me. She seemed to relax slightly, being unlocked.
'Do you want me to unlock you?' She asked me, in a bit more of a softer tone than before. I nodded. My mouth didn't seem to work at the moment. As she bent down to pick my lock, I noted that she smelt of cinnamon. In a matter of moments, I was free.
'Thanks,' I said, as I uncertainly stood up.
'Name.'
'Huh?'
She looked at me like I was a complete idiot. Well, to be fair, I was really confused. 'What is your name?' she asked really slowly, as if I was two. I could feel my cheeks growing slightly hot.
'Oh, Ryan. Yours?' I replied.
'Kate.' There was a small pause.
How are you feeling?' Kate asked slightly concerned.
'Major headache. Completely confused. But other than that totally normal.'
Kate nodded. 'Don't worry about the headache. It will pass.'
She strode pass me in rather stomping steps, but that was probably thanks to her combat boots, to look out a big window that went from top to bottom of the copter. Kate looked slightly surprised to see a smallish island with a volcano coming into view.
'That's the first sight of land I've seen since I woke up,' she informed me. 'And we seem to be heading straight towards it.' Kate was right. The nose of the copter was turning straight towards it, until we couldn't see the island at all. In a few minutes, there was a soft bump as the copter landed. Several men in a black uniform grabbed our arms, and pulled us to a small area with kids around my age, thirteen. Kate gave me a slightly scared look as if saying what's going on in here? before there was a bright spotlight on a man on a platform. His black hair was streaked with silver and he was dressed in a black suit with a red cravat, arms open in a voila! position. 'Welcome,' he announced with a slightly evil smile. 'To H.I.V.E.'
