OK. Well, sorry for all the misspellings. I hope you can get around that.
Rain12- Yes, yes it is.
Also, sorry for the rocky start. It gets better I promise. Just remember Kira's shy so there will be a lot of awkward moments.
The 'plane' was big. It didn't even look like a plane as far as Kira could tell. Then again, Kira had never been in an airplane and she had only seen a handful on planes passing over the jungle. So with it's bedrooms, fight areanas, hostpital ward, control room, and who knows how much more this place was huge!
Doc and Drew led her to the hostpital wing and Zak walked right beside her.
"Do you have any belongings?" Zak asked. Really, he was trying to feel out the delacate question of how her parents died.
"A few. Not many," Kira replied staring at the ground. Zak finally noticed what she was wearing. She had on a brown dress. It wasn't like a party dress, it seemed more of a tribal dress. The kind Indians wore.
"Are you a part of a tribe?" Zak asked. He was pushing it a little with that question, but decided to try anyway. Besides, she doesn't have to answer.
"I was," Kira replied. Seeing the curious look on Zak's face she added, "They were all killed when the whites, the city people as I call them because I am mostly white, attacked our village. I was the only one left so I ran into the jungle. I gathered some blankets and extra clothes and my home is that bush you woke up by." That was the most the Saturdays had gotten out of her since they had found her.
"So your parents were killed in the attack?" Zak asked. He felt it was appropriate to ask now that she had basicly said the answer.
"No," Kira said, "I don't have any parents. I never did. I was adopted by the tribe I come from, but I don't really come from them. My real parents are somewhere. I just don't know where. They could be dead, but I hope they're alive."
Doc and Drew had been silently listening to this conversation. Drew panicked and said, "Don't worry. I know that cut must be hurting you a lot, but here we are." She paused at a bug double door. She touched her finger to the pad and allowed the scanner to read her finger print. There was a click and the door opened.
Kira went over to the big chair and sat down while Drew cleaned and dressed her leg. As she was doing that, she saw a string on Kira's neck. It was worn and had been padded many times to keep from breaking.
Doc and Zak stood back watching Drew. Zak wanted to talk to his parents, but Drew was busy and Doc was being unnaturally silent. There's something strange about this girl, Zak thought.
After Drew was done they went to the kitchen to have some ice cream. Ice cream was good comfort food and they would need a lot of that once the secret got out. Kira had never had ice cream before and got brain freeze. At first she thought she was dying, but Zak explained what it really was. The two seemed to click nicely. It was strange because it would have seemed that the two had known each other for a long time.
Drew looked at Doc who nodded. "Um... Zak?" Drew said cautiously.
"Ya mom?" Zak replied.
"Zak. There's something we need to tell you. And you too Kira," Doc chipped in.
Kira looked up at them with wide eyes. She knew what was going to be said before Drew opened her mouth again.
"Zak, Kira isn't just some Indian girl. She is our daughter. And your twin sister."
