The Irkens led them down a long hall until they reached a large room. The ceiling was around twenty feet high, and was made of glass and metal. Looking around, Gaz noticed that all of the walls were lined with cell-like cages. Many of them were already filled with humans. Gaz began looking for Dib, or anyone else she recognized. As the Irkens started to lead them to separate cages, Gaz kept a protective hand on Tia's shoulder. The Irkens who were obviously put in charge of them, glanced at their boss before looking at Gaz, who gave him a look that said, 'Try it and there'll be hell to pay.' The Irkens then walked them to an open cage and motioned them in.
"Cage Close." The alien said pushing a couple buttons on a panel, after they'd gone inside. The cage whirred and slid close, locking with a click. Satisfied, the Irken walked away, glaring at Gaz, now that she was a safe distance away, and locked up.
"Jerk off." Gaz hissed menacingly, making the Irken jump and walk faster. Looking around the room she still couldn't see her brother.
"DIB!!!" Gaz shouted loudly, making several humans and Irkens look at her. Ignoring them she yelled for her brother again, but didn't get a response. Sighing, she turned around, facing the inside of her cage. Tia was still standing where Gaz had left her and was staring at nothing. In the cell a small cot was present, along with a water basin and tiny stall in the back corner, obviously a toilet.
"Tia?" Gaz said quietly, as she sat down on the cot. The girl didn't react, and Gaz repeated herself getting the same reaction. Heaving a sigh, she tapped the younger girl's shoulder expecting the same response and was taken by surprise when the girl let out a terrified scream. Slapping, at Gaz's hand, she turned away from her and curled up into a ball, making small sobbing noises. Gaz slid on the floor and sat next her.
"Tia, you need to calm down." Gaz said, trying to keep her famous temper controlled.
"Just go away." Her voice was shaking and it sounded muffled because her face was pressed into her jeans.
"Tia, I know how hard this must be on you, but you need to snap out of it. Crying is not going to help you here, and now that your brother is gone, you need to learn to fend for yourself." Gaz said knowing that she sounded harsh and cruel, but she knew that Tia would need to toughen up if she didn't want to have a nervous breakdown or become a schizophrenic. Not to mention the way the Irken's would treat her if she didn't listen to them.
"How can you know how hard this is?" Tia snapped, looking up. Her eyes and cheeks were red and puffy, from crying making streaks down her dirt-covered face. "You can't know, you've never had this kind of thing happen to you!" Tia whipped away from the stricken Gaz as thoughts raced through her head.
* 'How dare she say that! She has no idea what-' one angry voice said,
'Exactly she has no idea, as in she doesn't know what happened, so she-" a calmer, more reasonable voice interrupted, and was interrupted by a fiercer, younger sounding voice.
'Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!' *
"Shut up!" Gaz said, realizing to late that her thoughts had gotten to her and she'd spoken aloud. Sighing with frustration she stood up and walked toward Tia, whose arms were crossed as she stared out the cell at the Irkens. Gaz watched them too, trying to quell her temper, they were all bustling about, apparently busy, but busy doing what she didn't know.
"I'm sorry this happened to you, I'm sorry you had to see what you did, and I'm sorry that I didn't help or stop them before what happened, happened. But it did happen and I can't change that, and neither can you. The only thing you can do is live long enough to make them pay for what they did, got it?" Gaz said, glaring at the Irken's as they passed. The grief-stricken girl raised her eyes to Gaz and managed a weak smile.
"You're so predictable sometimes." Tia said in a hoarse voice. Gaz managed a grin back, glad that Tia wouldn't succumb to the Irken's easily.
