Chapter 6:
Our Secret
(Ambary's POV)
Then later they left me and Solomon came to watch me.
- Come.- he say which I listen and I went behind him. - Something most have ate it. I found this place by accident, really it found me. I felt through the roof, almost dying I try to find a way out through this caves. There's only one. No ones has found it on their own sends I did. I keep this place as my own, I think throw without it we might be gone, right Ambary.- say Solomon while we walk and everyone was looking at me but, then we were in a tunnel and I stop went he say my name.
- The sound in this caves goes on. Your name is a long one, might if I short it? Real short and especially right now. Might if I call you… Amber?- with that make me be happy because even if Ambary was my name right now… Amber is the one I like because that was the name that my sister always call me. I smile at him and we keep moving. - We get our power from the sun, earth any place we can. It's actually an extinct volcano. Not quiet extinct.- I look at the hot river and where it look like a hole. - Watch yourself! You fall in, your not coming back!- then we see aunt Tea with her daughter Mana. They look at me and then pass us.
- Have a good afternoon everyone! It's all yours!- he say while he hand me some clothes for me to wear sends mine was already dirty. The water was very relaxing and make fly. My last planet was fill with water but even so… I still like the water and specially the hot ones. I wash myself and make myself feel free in there. Inside the water I swim fast around there and making me feel in every part of my body that I was feeling the water. I didn't notice that I was under the water for almost haft an hour and that I make the water be crystalline. So I unlock another of my powers. Then I put the blanket on and got the water off me so I will put on my dry clothes. I was wearing brown shorts, a light blue blouse sends is so hot in some of the caves. I put on a light brown jacket and some light brown shoes that match the jacket. Then I went out drying my long hair, how did Kisara stand this kind of long hair?
- Makes you feel a human again, aren't ya.- say Solomon which I got it like if he really consider me as human in the first place. - Bad joke.- I only smile at him and then we keep our journey through the caves. Then for some reason I start to feel something… something was definitely wrong.
"I don't like this at all."- I say to Kisara.
'What do you mean?'- she ask me.
"Is like if… my own specie is nearby."- I say to her.
'You mean that… she's looking for us? Right now?'- she ask me very panicking.
"Don't worry she wouldn't find us. I'll make sure of that."- I say to her.
'You? What can you do to her? She might have an army right now!'- she scream at me.
"Just believe. I wouldn't let anything happen to them."- I say to her and then Solomon keep talking to us.
- You most have seem a lot but nothing like this.- say Solomon which he was right. The room that we just enter was full of light and in front of me was a golden field of grain. It was huge and I was more amaze than ever. I have never see nothing like this in my entire life.
- That's it. How?- I ask him.
- The same way the magicians do it. Mirrors.- he say and then I look up at the bright hole and now I notice the mirrors.
'And everyone said that Solomon is crazy. How many crazy people could pull this off?'- say Kisara.
- Is almost ready to harvest. And even now we much need the grain.- say Solomon went he took a piece of the grain. - Everyone in here things that your going to betray us to the Seekers. Makes sense… why else would you be here? What I can't get away from my head is, what kind of a plan was that? Walking into the desert with no backup and no way to get yourself back. So it seems to me that you weren't coming for the Seekers then, why were you doing? Then I start to thinking, when they put one of you in our heads do we still exist? Trap in there? If our memories still alive so are we? We have to believe that some people wouldn't go without a fight. Oh, and I know I wouldn't be quiet and I have never seen fighting like in Kisa but she will fight for more than anything is for the people she loves. I wonder… if a love like that might play with someone's mind… heart. I might guess somebody do something what other ordinary would do. Maybe you're here 'cause you do care about Seto and the kid. You… Amber.- say Solomon.
"He sees everything. His not crazy, his a genius."- I say.
'I think his both.'- say Kisara.
- Yeah, I wonder about a lot of things, and I'm not the only one. Care to join us Mokuba?- say Solomon and I search for him until he show up behind the golden grass.
- Uncle Solomon. Who did you know I was here?- he ask him. But then we hear a helicopter and then my sense was correct. She's getting closer.
'Not here again!'- scream Kisara.
"I don't you that my six sense was correct."- I say to her.
'What does she even want?'- she say.
"I don't know. But I have to do something."- I say.
- Mirrors. Mirrors! Mirrors!- scream Solomon. He and Mokuba where moving some wheels to hide the mirrors but then I have a better idea. I close my eyes and focus on the outside and then I let the wind be strong. With my ears I start to hear that the wind was violent outside. - Amber, help him.- he eye me and I only focus until I open my eyes and went running toward Mokuba and I still keep focus in the wind. Until everything was in darkness. I notice that Atem was looking at me which later I look at Solomon but, the most strange part was that everyone was looking at me.
- Amber.- say Mokuba and then I look at my arms, they were shinning like diamonds in the darkness. But I also notice in Mokuba's eyes that mine have another shape. Then I remember the wind, I look up and make my hand pass me like I was pulling something in the air and my hand shine even more, then the sound of the violent wind stop. Then the sound of the helicopter was over, did I really send her away? But then the sound was far away.
- Thank you. They're gone.- say Solomon but I could see that he want to question about what I just did and then I check my arms again, the shinning was over and maybe my eyes also.
- Gone for now. Seto and the others are still out.- say Tea and now I could see that she wasn't angry with me. For some reason she want to be grateful but she didn't know how.
- Mokuba why don't you take the guard duty for us?- ask Solomon giving him the gun. Mokuba took it.
- What do I do?- he ask him.
- Just keep an eye on her and you will figure it out.- say Solomon.
- This way.- say Mokuba to me and I follow him. I was questioning Solomon for giving him the gun until I hear it.
- You can't give a boy a loaded gun.- say Tea.
- That's why I didn't.- say Solomon. Even if I couldn't see them I could still hear them. And that only make me smile. I notice that everything was dark and that probably it was night time.
'Where is he taking us?'- ask Kisara once we notice that we were passing the way toward our sell.
- Aren't you taking me to my sell?- I ask him. We stop and he look at me.
- I miss the outdoors. And… I start to think that you miss it too.- say Mokuba and now that he mention it, I really did. Then in a door he make me close my eyes and he grab my hand to guide me. - Be real quiet. Ok, sit here. You can open your eyes now.- and then I see it.
- What stars are these? I have never see this constellation before.- I ask him.
- They aren't stars, their glow worms. You have to be quiet or they get scare and stop shinning.- say in a whisper and then he clap his hands together which make the glow worms be in total darkness. Then one by one they begin to shine again. - When I miss the sky I come here.
- It's beautiful.- I say.
- Amber. I heard what Solomon was saying. He thinks that… Kisara might still be alive. Inside of you I mean.- say Mokuba.
'Mokuba.'- say Kisara.
- Can that happen? Does it Amber? Amber why don't you answer me. Is Kisara still alive? Amber please.- say Mokuba already crying and that make me feel bad because he remind me of Sam.
'Forget what I said. Tell him.'- say Kisara and I under stock that, it was my turn to make someone happy instead of making him suffer.
- She promise you that she'll come back.- I say to him.
- Yes.- say in a whisper while he cry.
- Has Kisara ever broken a promise to you?- I ask him and this time his face was full of life. His face show happiness and then he hug me.
- I love you both.- say Mokuba.
- She loves you too. She's so happy that your safe.- I say to him while he pull away a little.
- Does everybody stay?- he ask me.
- No, not like Kisara. She's special. She's very strong, she want to keep her promise.- I say to him.
- She couldn't have keep her promise, if you didn't help her keep it.- say Mokuba and with that we hug again.
'Thank you, Amber.'- say Kisara.
- It's our secret, ok?- I whisper to him, which he only nod as a response.
