A scar that will never go away
Chapter 2 : The never ending dream.
Alita had grieved for 2 months over the loss of her family and was staying with her best friend. Alita was going into a deep depression, she dropped out of most of the activities she was engaged in and her marks dropped like a rock in the ocean. She wanted to disappear, let the pain just fade away. Alita knew if she was going to be sad like this she didn't want to bring any of her friend down with her, she knew she would have to just vanish and never come back. Alita was just sitting in class staring into space when the bell rang, she was pulled out of her trance by her friend shaking her slightly to wake her up.
"Are you ok Alita you've been acting really weird since....well since the accident" her best friend said with concern.
"I'm fine I just haven't found a reason to be happy"Alita said staring straight ahead like she could look through walls. But she didn't blink.
At that moment a blue warm light came crashing down on Alita, she screamed but it only came out as a whisper.
A little while later Alita woke up with the worst head ache that she has ever experienced.
"ouch" Alita felt a warm liquid flow down her right cheek. She raised her left hand to the unknown substance and pulled her hand away so her eyes could focus to see what it was. It was blood, it flowed freely from her head and she was becoming dizzy, she knew she had to get help fast or she would...die... Wait isn't that what she always wanted, just to fade away, after Alita thought for a minute, she didn't want to go this way but before she could get up she saw her home, the Earth hung up in the sky like a star shining great light. She passed out.
The next time she woke up was in a very large bed, and she was covered by a very heavy blanket. She opened her eyes slowly letting them adjust to the light and then looked around the room. She started from the left and worked her way to the right. Alita saw the door and immediately looked at the handle to see if there was a lock on it, it was a code lock no problem. One of Alita's activities showed her how to get out of a room if you being held captive. Then she saw a fire place, and a desk. When she was turning her head she caught sight of something silver. When she went back she saw a boy around her age sleeping in a chair in the corner. Alita knew instantly why he had chosen the corner. Just in case it was night and she was to wake up he would be in the shadows. Alita looked at the sleeping boy, he was dressed in black and red armor and had the most beautiful hair she has ever seen. Then Alita saw the intriguing sword that was sitting on the table. The hilt was black and red just like his armor and the thin yet strong metal shone like the morning sun. Alita took the sword off the table and hid it under her pillow, and then grabbed a blanket off the bed and slowly slipped it over the young soldier. When she turned to go back to the bed a hand grasped her wrist. Her heart instantly stopped, she thought he may have seen her take the sword and hide it and he wanted it back.
"Why did you put this on me" He wondered
" I didn't want you to be cold, and I assume your the one that brought me here" Alita said while noticing his blood red eyes.
"well don't ever touch me again, you'll do well to remember that" Dilandau said with a harsh voice. After that was said Dilandau left the room mumbling under his breath so that no one could hear him.
Alita was so relieved that he forgot about his sword, but what she couldn't understand was why he was carrying it. Alita was determined to find out where she was and why they carried swords. Alita didn't remember how she got here, but she remembered falling and them waking up here. Alita thought until her head hurt with frustration, then she laid back down on the soft pillow and fell asleep. When Alita woke up she noticed that day light had gone and night had descended upon the dreary planet. As she fully awoke she remembered the young soldier and instantly put up her guard. Her gaze slowly made its way over to the chair that this power driven boy was once sleeping in. When she finally turned to look at the chair she seen a glimmer of light and new it was the boys eyes. She turned and acted like she didn't notice him. Alita laid down and stared at the ceiling for awhile hoping that the boy would either leave or make his presence known. After about an hour Dilandau got fed up with waiting for the girl to notice him so he decided to start clicking his dagger against the chair and make her notice him. Well Alita almost forgot he was there and jumped when the light clicking surrounded the room. Dilandau seemed satisfied with the little scare he had made of the new guest. Alita was a little mad that she had let him scare her but after thinking about it, the slight jump added to her plan. Alita started thinking while she was waiting for the boy to speak or some thing and came up with a plan just in case she needed it. She was thinking of messing with the minds of who ever brought her here. She was going to act like she was a helpless woman and need to be protected. Well her plan was set in motion and she was glad it was. Well after Alita settled Dilandau just stared at her, boring a hole right through her. She just sat there like a statue waiting for him to move his gaze, she felt like he was reading her mind. Then Dilandau got up and in on simple movement he was right in her face right at eye level. They sat there centimeters apart staring into each others eyes. Dilandau sat there just looking for something, he didn't know what but he was looking for something specific. When Alita looked into his eyes all she saw was blood, red staining his large eyes, but they remained unchanged. They both sat there not blinking like they were in a staring contest. When Dilandau looked right into her eyes he saw them change color. Dilandau was taken by surprise with the sight, and he slid back.
"what is your name girl!" He said with a small side glance.
"Alita, and what is your?" She asked wondering is she should have said nothing.
"Dilandau, I'm general of the dragon slayers" While he said that he left Alita sitting there confused
' What are the dragon slayers?' Alita wondered to herself. But before she could start thinking again she wanted to get a head start in her plan.
