(My Point of View)

MAY 20 | 6:02 A.M.

My eyes slowly opened up. I look to my right, Cell wasn't there. 'He must be getting me something to eat.' Out of nowhere, a bright light flashed to my eyes. I shut my eyes and then a screech came to my ears. Many other doors was closed and footsteps came closer and closer. "Good, he's not here." A heavy male voice which sounded familiar. I was picked up, my eyes was still closed, due for the fact that I'm exhausted.

"Are you sure that he won't find us?" Another male voice came around, his tone was quiet.

"Yes, we'll go far away from here. To keep her safe."

I was set down on this comfy-like chair. I could feel movements around me like if I am in a ride. Beeping and closed doors was heard. And then I hear a growl, a harsh one. I opened my eyes and found myself in a car. Marshall was sitting next to me driving.

"Why… am I here?" I spoke slowly, drowsiness within it.

"We are leaving here. I can't deal with you and that monster. You need to be safe." He glanced at me and then looked away, frowning.

My eyebrows knitted, "What do you mean "safe"? I already told you I'm fine."

He exhaled, "Tatum, can't you see? He's a monster; who is a killer. Listen, I just want you to be okay."

I glared at him, "I am. I know you want me safe but I'm happy. He did done some awful things to our lives, but that doesn't mean he's a monster. In the end of the day, he's still a person."

"You mean an android."

I sighed, and gazed through the window. "Marshall, how did you know that?"

"I can't say." His voice grown solemnly.

I reached for the door handle, suddenly a hand grasped my shoulder.

"Tatum, I've locked the doors. Trust me, you need to stay here." He let go of me and set his hand to the wheel. I glanced at him, "What if I want to leave?"

He kept silent. I turned and continued to gaze through the window. Many minutes went by ten, twenty, even thirty minutes I was in that car.

"So, what will we do when we get there?" The soft male voice approached to my ears again. I turned around and it was the blue haired boy, Blake. He gave me a look to calm down though I felt otherwise.

"We rest there. Then we will continue on the trip," Marshall informed.

I stared at Marshall worrisome, "Where?"

"A motel. It will be a long trip to get your house."

My eyes lowered, "I know you want me safe but I'm okay. Why keep on doing this?"

"Because I don't want anyone to mess with you." He spoke quickly, blushing. "I'm sorry, but I can't stand her making rumors about you."

My eyes widened, "Her?"

There was this silence in the car. He turned on the radio.

"?: Welcome back to Linda everybody! I'm Linda Goodwin with pop diva Sofia Flores! Nice to meet you Sofia!

Sofia: Nice to see you!

Linda: You have such a lovely dress!

Sofia: Thank you!

Linda: You're welcome!

Sofia: What do we have here on Linda today?

Linda: Okay, this is an interesting story! A girl named Marcy tweeted us these kind of photos to us! It is a young girl hanging out what appears to be Cell!

Sofia: A young girl?

Linda: Yes, her name is Tatum. Here are the pictures!

Sofia: Wow!

Linda: Unbelievable, isn't it?

Sofia: It is!

Linda: When I saw these photos, I was shocked. I was speechless. I-I didn't know what to think anymore. How can anyone be with a monster? What does this mean to you?

Sofia: Well, it surprises me, I know that for sure. But I can tell she is special. If she is with Cell, she must be worth something. So Tatum, if you are listening to this, you are amazing. None of us can even talk to him like that in person. Continue to amaze me and others, thank you.

Linda: How sweet! Coming up next is—"

He turned off the radio.

"Don't you understand? Everyone knows about your secret." He stated. "This is why I want you to stay here, so Marcy won't take anymore pictures of you."

"I understand. But what if I don't want to leave? What if I want to be with Cell?" My voice raised up, leaving this strict tone.

He glared at me, "Tatum! I—"

I quickly glanced at the windshield and a person was standing on the middle of the road, "Watch out!"

Marshall looked over and began to spin the wheel, the car was spinning and spinning. It felt like it never stopped. Screams, yelling, and the screeches from the car was all I heard. It reminded me when the bus crashed, the screams, everything, was out of control. Then suddenly, the car became to an immediate stop. Everything and everyone calmed down.

I saw a dark shadow appeared to be moving outside my window. I squinted, trying to see who it is through the window. I got out of the car, I couldn't see where it is. The car has no damages whatsoever. I explored around and we appeared to stop at the woods. Suddenly, I bumped into someone tall, and it looked like its whole body was in green armor. I yelped and raised my head up.

"Miss?" It spoke in a calm tone. It was a voice that I knew, a voice I will always remember, Cell.

I gently smiled and hugged him tightly, "I missed you."

He hugged me back, "You don't have to worry about a thing."

I hear car doors being closed. I let go and turned around, seeing that Marshall and Blake are walking towards us.

"So Tatum," Blake paused. "We didn't see anything underneath, so—"

Blake left off his sentence. Blake raised his head up, staring at us though shaking while Marshall in the other hand was crossing his arms, looking not pleased.

"Why do you always find us?" Marshall irked.

Cell chuckled, "I can sense other lifeforms' ki, allowing me to able to locate them. For what reason you've been trying urge her to leave?"

"To get away from you," He stated.

Cell raised a brow, "And you think that is going to work? I'm sorry, but that is impossible to do so."

Marshall grunted, "I'm going to get her back."

I raised my hand, "Actually, I'm fine."

Cell chuckled some more and then he frowned, "Tell me Marshall, are you?" Blake darted away, who knows where he went.

"Are you going to kill me now or what?" Marshall growled.

I turned to Cell, my eyebrows drew together. He glanced at me with a wink, like if everything is going to be alright. My eyes lit up, I softly smiled.

Cell grinned, "You're making everything boring now if you ask me to end your life. Your doom must await—" He picked me up. "Farewell."

Cell took a step and took off to the sky, leaving Marshall angry and annoyed.

I exhaled in relief, closing my eyes though smiling. "I'm glad you came, he seemed a little too paranoid."

"Isn't he not pleasing to your eye?" He teased.

My eyes opened, "W-What?"

He smirked, "Oh come on Tatum, I know you like him."

I look away, blushing, "W-Well, yeah. But there is something off about him that doesn't sit right. He didn't even listen to what I said, he just seemed… forceful."

"I told you," Cell chuckled.

I glanced at him, beaming. "I know…" I sing-songed.

I look back and realized that everyone knows about my secret. The happiness in my face turned into a sulky look. My eyebrows lowered, the corners of my mouth drooped. Sadness overtook my features. I took in a sharp breath, "Everyone knows about us."

His eyes narrowed at me suspiciously, "What do you mean everyone?"

"You know that girl that was in the basement with me in Marshall's house? She somehow took photos of us and leaked them to the Internet, leaving everyone in the world knowing."

My voice grown solemn, "The people in this world are harsh, they might even send the government for a visit. Everyone is going to think that I'm trapped or weird. No offense. I wish they understand how I feel for a change. My parents, my friends, they are all going to worry about me. I don't know how—"

Cell smirked, "Tatum, don't let them get into your head. You are intelligent than the majority, therefore, they are a waste of your time."

My eyes widened, smiling. I then made my cheeks raised down, making a curious expression. "So what should we do?"

He hesitated for a second, he glanced at me, "Until then, we wait."

There was a silence, "Did you know there were people around?" I asked him.

"Of course, I have the ability to sense other lifeforms' ki. Surely you haven't forgot."

I blinked, chuckling. "Silly of me to ask you that." I gazed at Cell, "So where were you? When I woke up, you was gone."

He grinned, "I'll show you."
