Alone in a walkway Sindel sat with her head resting on her knees and slowly wept. How could this be possible? What had made her hold such a deep resentment for him? Life couldn't have been that bad with him could it? So many questions so many feelings ran through her mind. Hearing the sound of footsteps she grabbed one of her daggers and simply held still. Appearing from around the corner a figure in black approached her.
When he saw her all he saw was a frightened and saddened girl, the site of her triggered something in his mind causing him to react differently. He almost felt pity for her. He just looked at her for a bit, taking in all that was around him. He hadn't taken notice yet that she was looking at him with a weapon in full view.
"I do not mean any harm you can put your weapon away."
"Yeah that's what you say, but remember what you taught me never trust your enemy." She replied glaring at him.
"So you managed to remember what you've been taught."
"How could I forget, you practically drilled it into me."
"If my memories serve me right I don't every recall you hating me," he said as he slid down next to her. Sindel merely looked at him in shock as he sat next to her. With him doing this she calmed a bit as she remembered him when she was little.
The little girl sat in one of the many rooms of the ship crying. She had been forced to leave her home and her family. How could Aidan let this happen? What did she ever do to have this done to her? The door opened and a man walked in. The child looked with fear in her eyes as the man walked up to her. He looked just like Aidan! Was this him?
She quickly got up and ran to the man hold her arms up. He just looked at her and picked her up. Holding her to his chest he could feel her small heart beating. He stroked her long black hair as she calmed down. Walking to the bed in the room he gently sat her down. She looked at him. Sindel knew this wasn't Aidan and she started to whimper again, this wasn't her nurse yet he had the same mark on his face as Aidan did. He might be the same tribe as Aidan she thought. Yet she still continue to whimper until she could feel her tears welling up in her eyes.
"Ssshh, hush child you'll weaken yourself." He softly told her. He sat on the bed and held her to him again stroking her hair as he did the first time. Again she quieted down but she still continues to whimper a bit. For a moment Kai sat there holding her, forgetting for that moment that he was supposed to be a emotionless being. How could he with such a small child sitting there not knowing why she was there. He had been taught to withhold his emotions and not show them. Yet no one was there to say anything so he let them be. Back on his home planet of Brunnis 2 the children there were always held and shown love. And a child as small as her should not be frightened of him but should feel comfortable around him. Looking down at her he studied her small sleeping face. Her ebony hair that was pulled up around her head and the small curls falling every which way. Pleased that she had quieted he remained with her for sometime.
