Sorry about the short chapters I wrote this during the summer so I'm
actually finished I just have to type it up.
Chapter Eleven
Later that day Siria sat at a table with Jay and Lex. Earlier things had been explained (Siria was a fellow prisoner who helped Jay.) and Lex was a lot nicer to Siria. Jay and Lex were talking about the going on of the city.
Siria found her attention was soon drawn from the conversation by a short brown skinned girl with blonde braids. She was talking to Siva and when she finished the girl walked to her room. Siria recognized the girl's braids as those belonging to the second rider on Slade's bike. She got up from her seat and went to the door were the girl had disappeared into. When she knocked on the door the girl opened it. There was a look of annoyance on her face that scared Siria in her recognition of who it was.
"Eb. I hate to be a bother but do you know a guy named Slade?" Siria's voice faltered several times throughout the sentence. The girl looked Siria over before rolling her eyes and pushing the door all the way open.
Sited on the twin bed was a pale guy with tangled black hair. He was putting on his boots when he looked up at the door. "Siria!"
"Slade!" The word was hardly spoken before they were in a friendly embrace. Siria could hardly speak and kept looker at the girl who now seemed interested in her nails. Slade introduced her, his face a complete smile.
"Siria, this is Ebony."
"I know, she's that leader of the locust the one who is supposedly crazy.believes in Zoot or something.
Ebony looked at her "I've been known for better things then that."
Before Siria could react Jay came up to her. "Siria, I need you to do some- Ebony!" there was a look of astonishment on his face.
"Hello Jay." her lips curled into a seductive smile.
"Jay is there something you need?" Siria had a look of hope on her face that Jay would relieve her of this bad situation, but he was no help.
"No.. There's nothing." His eyes were locked on Ebony. Slade grabbed Siria's hand and headed towards a table.
"We have a lot of catching up to do." He smiled down on Siria. Sitting down She mumbled her thanks and looking back at the door Siria noticed it was closed. She turned back to Slade.
"Why are you with her?"
"What? I just saved her she was in trouble."
"Slade you know what she did."
"You can't really blame other's for the death of your brother." Siria sighed. "She's a good person. You remember when your mother told you never to play with matches so then they became a mystery. a power. That's Ebony."
Siria looked at Slade as if he were crazy. "A POWER! Oh that's a lovely piece of work."
Slade ignored her. "Besides there are worse people in the world then Ebony, you know Java?"
"Yeah."
"She's been brainwashing Ebony to believe in Zoot, and that's her own sister."
"Well then both of them are no good, and there is nothing you can say I WON'T TRUST HER." Siria was standing and most of the Saloon was looking at her.
"Siria you can, you're just going to have to let go."
"Seems easy enough, but Slade when you first played with matches didn't you burn yourself." With that Siria went to her room.
That night Siria lied in the bed and Jay was on the floor, but not to close to the bed." Jay you said there was something you wanted me to do, what is it?"
"Oh. Lex thought it would be a good idea for you to go to the Mall."
"In the City?"
"Well I can't go."
"I'm glad you realize that."
"And so I figured you could find some way in."
"Well. I'll have to think about it." With that she blew out the candle. Siria was half asleep when she heard rustling in the room. "Jay?"
"What?"
"What are you doing?"
"I can't sleep on that floor another night." Siria sighed and moved over."
"I can't believe you."
"What did I do this time?"
"I was practically asleep."
"I was trying not to wake you."
"Well it didn't work."
"Sorry."
After awhile Siria turned on to her back and look at the ceiling. "Jay."
"What." There was an irritated undertone to his voice.
"I'll leave tomorrow; I think Slade could give me a ride to the out skirts."
Jay turned over. "So you'll do it."
"Yeah." Siria sighed
"Siria, thanks."
"Whatever."Siria turned over and quickly played like she was asleep. She didn't want to go back to the city but Jay.needed her?
