Resa: hehe... I guess yeah it was kinda dark... well I hope you like it anyway!
Ciara awoke to the sound of an argument. She blinked a few times, seeing a boy with brown hair and a blurry face clench his fists as he spoke sternly to a drastically taller, purple man who kept trying to reason with the boy.
She kept hearing her name repeated, and she finally was able to adjust her eyes. The one boy was Thomas… and the other was…
Who in the universe was that?
She adjusted herself, forgetting about her injuries, and she yelped in shock when pain surged through her side. Her eyes shot open when she felt a hand- her own hand- reach down to clutch her ribs at lightning speeds.
Oh gosh... they hurt...
She hoped nothing was broken... maybe just some bruises, but her consciousness told her not to set her heart on it. She groaned as she sat up, immediately feeling a presence near her. Ciara cracked an eye, her yellow irises scanning the area to find the body.
They finally landed on a shaggy brunette boy crouching next to her, his eyes full of concern. "You okay?"
Ciara stared at him a moment, huffing in reply as a light red dusted her features. Thomas seemed oblivious to the blush, though, instead only nodding and standing up to approach the mystery man at the cell 'door'.
She heard Thomas shoo him off, but the man at the door disagreed, and they ended up in another bickering session. Ciara rolled her eyes, sighing in annoyance as they continued to argue. Finally, she decided to say something.
"Shaggy, who are you yelling at?" Ciara asked, her big ears folded back against her head.
The dispute was put at a halt, both males suddenly quieting as Thomas turned around to face the other Galran. "What did you just call me?" He didn't seem angry, more or less confused.
"Shaggy. Now answer my question. Or I'll start calling you Doggy." Ciara felt a sudden surge of mischief flow over her, her frown turning into a terrible smirk. Thomas cocked his head at her odd expression.
"How do you know about dogs?" He asked, his blue orbs filled with a mix of confusion and suspicion.
A concerned expression flashed over Ciara, memories playing in her mind. She remembered her mother, and how they had danced on the hills of earth, the breeze was warm and the sunset made everything seem more wonderful. The orange and pink sky lit up the white daisies, creating a beautiful array of colors. And she remembered their dog- Akira, who would bound beside them in the grass, his shaggy fur flying everywhere.
But instead of telling the truth, Ciara replied, "What's a dog?"
Thomas felt a pang of annoyance shoot through him as the purple girl stared at him, puzzled. He couldn't tell whether it was fake or not. Be he swore she said 'dog'. And he hadnt seen a single dog, or anything resembling a dog- anything even called a dog in his time here.
He shrugged it off, making a mental note to ask again later. He turned to the guard who was still standing in the doorway. "See? She's fine. Now. Leave."
The guard nodded, then walked off after closing the door. The human boy let out a sigh of relief, sliding down the wall and landing firmly on his butt. "I hate that guy."
Ciara was really, truthfully puzzled now. "Why do you hate someone for checking up on me?"
"I hate those guys. Those stupid Galran guards are always making a fit over nothing... Like someone they don't even know being okay or not. Like they care." Thomas huffed. He was glaring at the ground, trying to hide the red dusting his cheeks.
Ciara nodded, not knowing what else to do. The pain in her side started to subside, so she decided to just go back to sleep.
