A/N : okay okay, hold your horses, eventually Sky will head back to
Seattle, but I've got some nasty stuff coming up that some of you might
hate me for, but hey, I just can't help myself.
Thanks for the reviews
.now, lets get back to this story.New York, here we come!
Chapter 46
There were two cities in New York city, there was the normal one, the one were people saw the light of the sun and the dark of the night and then there was the underground city; where no one ever saw the son.ever, unless of course, if they came up out of the old abandoned 20th century subway system. Sky chose the later and Liam followed, because frankly, he had no choice.
The first time Liam saw the grimy underground world he was shocked but he quickly got used to it.he always adjusted quickly. Sky found them an abandoned subway car where they set camp and would live for the next two years. Living there was dangerous; there wasn't a day that went by that either Sky or Liam ran into some kind of trouble.sometimes, Sky would disappear for a couple of days and then come back, but he never told Liam where he was going. So, Liam being hard headed and all, decided to do the same, thing was, he didn't come home.
For the first few days, Sky didn't worry.Much. But then days turned into weeks and then weeks turned into months.
Oh, he looked, but the kid was gone. Disappeared, Vanished.and for once in his whole life, he had no idea what to do and for the first time he actually got the urge to call his father and ask him for help, but he quickly trough that idea out the window.
So, instead he started to play Liam's game; and so he waited and observed, but he made himself invisible, so when Liam came waltzing seven and a half months after he had left with his head held high and a look of pure defiance on his face which was quickly shattered when he found the subway car deserted and which looked to have been unlived for months.
Fear.Liam felt fear. He had been abandoned by the one person he thought would never leave him, but he took it as a man and replaced his hurt and scared look with one of no emotion.
Sky, who looked from far, felt a sense of relief to see his kid brother return. But now was the time for the games to truly begin.
Liam headed for the uperground city.Sky followed like a ghost in the night.
Liam was ambushed by a bunch of tugs and Sky watched from a far as his brother.now a man, fought and won the fight.
And so the game went on.for months and in no time, a year had gone bye. ***
"Hey, Liam!" a voice yelled.
Twelve year old Liam turned around and faced his one and only true friend, Billy.
Liam went to him and shook his hand, "How's it hanging, Billy?"
"Not bad, not bad, so what ya up too?" Billy asked casually as they walked side by side down the busy streets of New York.
"Getting myself some doe." Liam suddenly turned around and looked, god damn it, why did he always feel like someone was following him?
"What's up?" Billy asked, looking around to try and see what Liam was looking at.
Liam shrugged it off, "Nothing, never mind."
They went to one of the main hang out spots for people their age and sat down with people they knew. Billy looked at his young friend whom he truly didn't know, but trusted with his life. "Liam?"
"Ya?' Liam asked with out meeting his gaze.
"What are you doing here?"
Liam looked at him, confused, "What do ya mean?"
"I mean, you ain't from the big apple, dude, you're sharp and you're always on your guard, Christ, I don't even know how old you are, but sometimes I feel like your 17 and then sometimes, I could swear you're only eleven or twelve. You freak me out. I've known you for seven months and you've never mentioned family or anything, yet you look the type.you know, the family type. I don't know if you know, but I'm a transgenic descendent, I don't know if you know what that is, but sometimes I feel like you're tougher and stronger then any transgenic I know. My parents were killed when I was ten, I have no family. What did you do that could be so bad for you to come to this god forsaken town?"
Liam frowned and cocked an eyebrow at the same time and didn't answer immediately.
"You're a transgenic?" Liam finally asked.
"You got a problem with that?" Billy asked defensively.
"If I did I'd be going against my own kind, I'm pure transgenic blood; my parents were X5s." Liam told him.
"No shit?" "No shit." Liam assured. "I sort of ran away three and a half years ago with my older brother who I'd never met. Anyway, to make a long story short, I kind of played the little rebel and like, left him with out telling him where I was going, when I went back, he was gone.he left with out me.something I truly thought he would never do. Oh, and by the way, I'm twelve."
Billy's eyes went wide, "Twelve?"
Liam nodded; Billy gulped.
"So, hum.how old is your brother and why the hell didn't you know him?"
"Like I said, it's a damn long story, but my brother's 21.I think. I sometimes hate him for leaving me here, I feel abandoned."
"Why don't you call your parents or something, hell, you're just a kid." Billy said truthfully.
Liam glared at him.
And then the world went up into blaze. The club was bombarded by gun fire and both Liam and Billy trough themselves on the floor. Sector cops soon swarmed the area. Both boys knew they were illegal human beings and so they were trapped because the cops had guns and they had nothing.
Sky watched as the police gathered twenty some teens and hustled them into a bus; among them was Liam and his friend Billy and so the games were over. When it came to life and death, Sky always chose life.
Sky followed the bus to the precinct and watched as they unloaded the young offenders.
When it was dark outside, Sky knocked some cop unconscious and stole his uniform and badge, not to mention his gun.
Sky entered the precinct without a problem. He headed to the holding cells and had no trouble getting in. He asked one of the deputies to gag and mask two of the young offenders. And so when Liam and Billy came out of the holding cells struggling, they could not see who grabbed their arm and led them out of the building and into a stolen squad car. Both boys could only imagine what was happening; both had a strong and wild imagination. So when Sky pulled into an alley and took the boys out of the car, he placed them against the brick wall, took out his gun and cocked it. He could practically hear the fear radiating of the young teens.
Sky fired the gun twice in the air and simultaneously, both boys fell to the ground, thinking they had been shot.
Sky went to them and took his knife out. He cut Billy's bindings first and then he went to go to Liam to cut his bindings, but Billy jumped on him, trying to fight him off. Billy was surprised when he found himself pined against the wall and meeting the same coloured eyes as his best friend.and then he knew.
Sky let him go and went to Liam and cut the bindings and took off the blind fold. Fear was the first thing he saw in his baby brothers eyes, but then recognition and then joy. Liam launched himself into his brothers arms, saying he was sorry over and over again.
Billy watched the pair; one a man and the other still a child. Both care deeply for the other. They were brothers in blood and in spirit.
