Rebellious

Chapter Four - A Past Filled Dream

A female of six years ran across the field where various flowers blossomed. Her long blonde hair was tied into a pony tail that floated behind her as she ran. Her ruby red eyes held warmness, gentleness, friendliness and innocence within. A smile that was bright and warm as the sun was set upon her features. Her clothing was of a bright pink dress that fell all the way to her knees. She could feel the soft ground; which was covered with lush green grass, beneath her feet since she was barefooted.

Holding her hand was another female of six years of age. Her smile was above the equality of an angel and it also possessed much more innocence than any would have believed. Her eyes were of a deep sapphire blue that sparkled with more intensity than stars do within the night sky. Her hair equalled the moon in colour; but her hair was much longer than the other female, since hers reached to her ankles. The lighting of the sun made her white hair glitter immensely. Her hair was set loose and it fluttered behind her as she also ran through the field. Her clothing was of a white dress that fell all the way to her knees; and she too was barefooted, which allowed her to feel the softness of the ground beneath her.

They both came to the top of the hill where the entire hill top was covered in various colours of roses. The roses stretched out far in the distance which seemed like it was perfectly flattened against the earth. The blonde female sat down and started to caress the flower's petals gently. The other inspected a strange rose that was amongst a group of red roses. Its petals were white but the very tips a golden colour. She knelt down to the strangely coloured rose and sniffed its aroma. An astonished smile made its way on her features as she discovered that this strange flower had an outstandingly sweet scent.

"Maybe we should go back. I mean; who knows what would happen to you if they fount out you've snuck out without permission" the blonde female spoke with cautiousness within her voice.

The white haired female looked to the blonde instantly. She sat up on her knees before looking to the ground with sadness within her eyes. The blonde turned to look at the other female that was now saddened. The blonde stood up from her position and walked over to the other before sitting down beside her. Her look showed she was concerned for the saddened female entirely. There were many things that the white haired female knew that the blonde one did not.

"Elisi; I don't want to go back" the white haired female spoke with depression.

"Don't want to go back? But Aleera… what if you… what if you got into trouble? I mean; I'm sure you'll be grounded for a few weeks for it" Elisi replied with concern.

Aleera's eyes were shadowed by her fringe. Elisi couldn't tell if this was out of depression; or something else. Silence came between them both and the wind blew slightly more viciously than before. Aleera looked to the sky with a new emotion that Elisi had never seen from her before. Neither depression nor sadness was there; it was anger and hatred that burnt through her eyes, but the eyes were no longer the deep sapphire blue any longer; they were a deep sinister purple that looked like a very dark amethyst colour. Elisi grew terrified immediately since it was her first time seeing Aleera completely different than before.

"They've never grounded me before Elisi. I'm not a child to them; I don't even seem human to them, I'm just their experiment… their test subject. An experiment that they can torture physically and mentally; no matter how much it hurts, or how deep the wounds are… to them I'm just their experiment that they anticipate will oblige to their every whim" Aleera spoke as tears slid down her cheeks.

Aleera had never cried before; well not in front of people, and especially not in front of Elisi. She wanted to show Elisi that she was strong; hardly breakable, someone that can withstand pain and torture. But now; it appears that maybe Aleera wasn't as strong as she intended to be. Elisi's fear was replaced with uncertainty as her eyes shook with disbelief. The guardians of Aleera; she had always thought they were caring and kind, but nothing to do with what Aleera had said.

Uncertainty struck Elisi's mind as she grew unsure on what to think. Elisi had seen a truly shocking emotion from Aleera that she never expected to see from her before; and not only that, but the changing of her eyes made things more complicated upon her. Then there was Aleera shedding tears; Elisi was always set to believe that Aleera would never cry because she was strong, but she had seen her cry… actual real tears had fallen from Aleera's eyes. What could Elisi think of Aleera now? Even though Aleera had never lied to Elisi before; what made it so sure that she wasn't actually lying to her now? Aleera had hidden a few secrets from her; could she just think that it was ok and just continue as if nothing was revealed?

"Supposedly you're thinking that I could actually be lying to you right now? You can't trust me can you?" Aleera questioned as she turned her gaze to her.

Elisi shrunk under the gaze as fear now welled inside her immediately. She felt so small and powerless against the gaze of her deep amethyst eyes that looked sinister. Aleera took her eyes away from Elisi as she focused onto looking at the strange flower from before. Elisi let out a sigh of relief as part of her fear diminished. However; Elisi didn't dare move just in case that Aleera somehow attacked her; also because of the fear that was forcing her to stay put.

The sound of people running towards them alerted Aleera; but Elisi hadn't heard anything. Aleera stood quickly and turned her gaze to the direction that she and Elisi came up. Elisi gave a puzzled towards Aleera; but Aleera seemed to not have noticed since her eyes were glaring deadly daggers to the direction that they came from. Men in white coats and some in regular clothing came running up the hill. The white coats were called 'lab-coats'; whilst the others were just regular people, but extremely strong and very muscular.

Elisi looked in the same direction as Elisi and saw the men running up the hill to their location. Seriousness strained their facial expressions entirely and Elisi gasped at the sight. However; the men in white had a dangerous look in their eyes, which sent chills running down Elisi's spine. The men in regular clothing seemed to have guilt in their eyes; but it was barely seen as seriousness was the emotion currently presented. They soon reached the location of Aleera and Elisi.

"Elisi Linette; please step away from Aleera Mai Rosalyn" the front leading man of the people in white spoke.

His voice was filled entirely with seriousness. Elisi only knew the man as a non-serious man since he only showed her his false side. Her eyes completely confused as to why everything was changing. Her eyes were focused upon the red headed man that was only in his early twenties. His hair used to be scruffy; like bed hair, now it was all slick back with only a single hair piece dangling in front of him. His green piercing eyes made Elisi more uncomfortable around him.

"W- What's going on; Dr. Rafael?" Elisi questioned with her voice quaking slightly.

"It is for the best that you do not know Elisi" Dr. Rafael replied.

Aleera had her gaze upon him; instead of looking into his eyes, she looked right through them. Rafael turned his gaze directly to her eyes and knew immediately that she was seeing right through him. Elisi looked to Rafael before looking at Aleera; she noticed both of them were not taking their gaze of each other; and yet both of their eyes were filled with hatred of the other.

"You didn't care to tell her about what you are Aleera?" Rafael spoke to her as if in mockery.

"What you indicated me as is not what I am. I do not need to tell her such false accusations Dr. Rafael" her voice cut through the air as if a blade sliced through fresh meat.

The others felt the hatred in her voice that was directed at the Dr. when she spoke his name. All the men that weren't wearing white lad-coats were feeling entirely remorseful for something they had committed; and with what they are doing now. Aleera didn't care if they felt guilty for their actions; she also didn't care if they asked for atonement, all she cared about was that they gave her up without a fight first.

"It doesn't matter what I've indicated you as Aleera. It was never a false accusation; you just led yourself to believe that it is a false accusation. You are nothing more than a demon Aleera; you are the destructor of this world. We won't allow you to live no longer; if your existence is still upon this planet, you will doom it. You are nothing but misfortune; the bringer of all evil, and the one that should perish in the pits of hell" the Dr. spoke as if he was righteous.

Elisi turned to Aleera as if she believed every word that he had spoken. Aleera met Elisi's fearful eyes with her own eyes that were sending pleading signs that she shouldn't believe it. Elisi meant the world to Aleera; she wouldn't allow Elisi to get hurt, not in the slightest. But now; she could do nothing to cure Elisi's pain and fear. However; the one to suffer the greatest amounts of damage through this whole charade, was Aleera herself.

Elisi backed away from her in fright. It was true; Elisi had believed every word that he said. Aleera's eyes turned back to the normal deep sapphire blue eyes that originally were. Elisi had abandoned her completely. Pain surged through her entire being which left an ache every where it reached. The pain was much worse than the previous pains that Aleera had felt recently. A liquid substance was present in her eyes and it slowly fell down her fair skinned cheeks. The liquid had a warm touch against her skin; but it felt strange to her.

The moisture landed onto her bottom lip which tickled it slightly; so as an immediate reaction, she licked it up. The liquid was still warm; but there was total strangeness to its taste. The liquid was salty; but it mainly tasted of sadness and betrayal. Aleera's heart felt like it was being plunged with blades that were constantly moving in and out. Also it felt as if her heart had also shattered like fragile glass already cracked; but was ready to shatter with the slightest thing. The life that shone brightly in her eyes dimmed to the point it seemed like nothing was left.

Her eyes glazed over as the burning flames of life extinguished from her deep blue eyes. The emotional impact was far too great to contain; in so all of her caring emotions blew away with the wind. Dr. Rafael gestured for the other men in white to take Aleera into their custody again. Unlike before; she gave in without as much as a fight, since she allowed them to bind her arms behind her back.

"Aleera Mai Rosalyn; as of now it would be significant to listen to us without rebellious resistance, either that or we'll just decide to send you to your demise" Dr. Rafael spoke with firmness in his voice as if threatening her.

Sapphire shot up with sweat slightly on her forehead. Her breathing was heavy and her chest heaved up and down. Her black tank top stuck close to her body from the dampness. Mai lifted her head from the soft bed that was laid on the floor. Her emerald green eyes were soft and filled with concern for its master. A soft concerned growl emitted from the female gold organoid that was curled up besides the human's bed.

"Just a nightmare Mai… just a nightmare" she said reassuring to the organoid.

The gold organoid let out another soft growl before placing her head back onto her bed; which covered the hard ground beneath. Sapphire looked to her alarm clock and groaned as she saw that it was three in the morning. Without caring that her body was damp from the nightmare; she grabbed her covers and pulled them over her head as she sank down into the covers. She placed her head comfortably on her pillow before closing her eyes to return back to her slumber.
