Light Your Face With A Smile
Chapter 7
Beloved
It seemed strange at first...
Mizu walked down the hall rather hurriedly...trying her best not to let anyone see her...she froze suddenly, her information telling her that two life forms were approaching to her current location. She quickly went into hiding and peeked out, seeing as how she was correct. Two male guards had been chatting away as one of them seemed to be pushing some sort of big cart towards the elevator. It couldn't be made out as to what they were saying, for the whole scene seemed to be on mute...
She eyed the cart suspiciously, about to analyze it, but then froze as her eyes widened. An arm had fallen out of the cart, catching one of the guards attention. He seemed to sigh and then picked it up. The two began to talk again as the guard waved the arm around. Mizu thought on how rude it was to do such a thing. But what really scared her, was the revelation on that it was a realian arm. The two guards had walked ahead of her and she slowly walked out of her hiding place, seeing what else was in the cart.
More realian parts...every part imaginable was in their.
A head, female head...her dull gold eyes looking straight at Mizu, causing her to gasp. One of the guards heard it and quickly turned around, only to find nothing behind them. Mizu hid back and covered her mouth.
" So, anyway..." The guard paused as he turned back to the other. " Realians are so dumb, they take whatever orders we give them."
" Not really, their programmed to remember?"
" Yeah...but by taking orders, they end up like these machines right here!" The guard pointed to the cart as they both began to laugh and walk away. Mizu sunk to the floor and propped her hands on her knees. She suddenly began to think...
" Will I end up that way...?"
Bang!
Huh?
What's going on?
........................................
The occupant in the room stirred silently. His eyebrow twitching as he began to open his eyes...
Blurry...
Strange...what was he sitting on?
He moved around a bit as he proceeded to focus on his vision. He wanted to see where he was. The atmosphere was different...more calming. He closed his eyes and moved his arm a bit.
They felt so stiff...
His body felt so stiff, how long was he like this?
After regaining some function in his arms, he rubbed his eyes with his hands and then stretched his arms out...only to let a soft grumble escape him as he hit something while stretching. He rubbed both of his knuckles and began to scratch one of his arms, to find that a soft type of cloth stood in his way. He opened his eyes once more and began to blink a few times, only to find himself starring at a white ceiling.
His vision became more clear by the second.
Soon enough, he noticed a small fan attached to the ceiling. The light had been turned off, but the rays from the sun became it's substitute, showing threw the open window. A slight breeze came in, causing him to shiver and realize that he had no shirt on.
Ok...where was his clothing?
He had come to realize that he was lying down on a bed. Soft but yet firm at the same time. Baby blue sheets covered his body, soft and light they were...
He proceeded in taking a sitting position carefully and look at his surroundings.
Confused he was...for he had never seen this room before.
For one thing, it was filled with books. Shelves sat on the opposite wall while a desk sat under it. Papers laid scattered along the desk with pens, pencils, and a hand held computer. A communication device also sat on the desk. A small screen TV stood across the room in front of the wooden bed that was now occupied. The room's walls a dull blue with wooden flooring. A dresser stood next to the bed...The room seemed a bit messy, but fairly organized. The occupant on the bed had noticed his clothing sitting on a navy chair while his weapons rested on top of it. The blue covers slide off his chest as they sat in front of him. He looked over to his arm to find it bandaged. It didn't seem to hurt...
He touched his messy red hair and noticed that a bandage laid rapped around his head.
How did he get injured?
His blue eyes stayed with their questioning expression as the male pulled back the rest of the covers and let his legs dangle on the side of the bed. He looked at his surroundings one more time as he stood up, feeling the cool floor with his bare feet. He looked down and sighed. At least he was wearing pants...baggy navy pants. He again stretched his arms and worked out his body a bit, seeing as how he had been lying down for awhile, which brought him back to the question...
What had happened and what was he doing here?
Bang...
There it was again...and it sounded like someone had hit something...so the male decided to investigate. As he began to walk, his legs protested as the male felt a pain shot up through his leg. He winced and bent down, rolled up his pant leg and noticed another bandage in place. How messed up was he? He began to ignore the coming pain as he headed for the door. This must have been an old house, seeing as wood substituted for machinery.
Jr. gripped the handle and starred at it for a few seconds, trying to remember what had happened last. A throbbing pain made itself known as Jr. held his head with his free hand. The dream he just had...the girl...he let his grip on the doorknob fall as he began to remember...
The headaches...the facility...crimson trails...Luca...the sound of shooting...him laughing...Mizu...screaming...and bright lights...
" MOMO..." He whispered out as he looked back at his gear. Seeing it at a closer view, he noticed MOMO'S bracelet sitting on top of his attire. He quickly walked over to it and picked it up. He remembered how he had just sat there...not doing anything about the gun being pointed at him...why did he just sit there?...if he had done something...Muzi...wouldn't have...
He smiled weakly...it always came back to him...it was his on fault for it...
He gave the bracelet one last look as he slipped it on his wrist and gave it a glance. He eyed the bullet before heading to the door. He had to limp a bit, due to the short pain he was getting from his leg...
...........................
" Agh!!!! Allen! I'm going to KILL you for this!!" Shion yelled at the monitor before her, showing Allen looking somewhat distressed and scared.
" I'm so sorry Chief!!! Really, I am!!! I couldn't stop her! She knocked me out before I could do anything!!!" Allen began explain as Shion crossed her arms.
" You are such a fool! I leave KOS-MOS in your care for awhile and look what I find out...SHE'S MISSING!!" Shion screamed out as chaos only sighed. He had been watching the whole spectacle before him, and he was quite upset at the news...but he wasn't intending on showing it. KOS-MOS missing? Where had she gone? It seemed odd as to how she left on her own without a word, without even orders.
" Cheif please! Calm down! I could have got killed you know!" Allen pleaded as Shion seemed to ignore his new comment.
" Unbelievable..." Shion sighed. Now there were more things to worry about. MOMO gone and now KOS-MOS makes a disappearing act? Was there a malfunction spreading among the realians or something??
As Shion began to yell at Allen some more, chaos leaned on the wall and looked skywards. This was getting worse...
creek...
chaos's head suddenly snapped towards the open door as he heard footsteps. He stood up straight and took a step for the doorway. A shadow could now be seen as chaos narrowed his eyes.
" Ugh..." A sound came from the hallway as chaos stopped. That sounded like...
A hand was placed on the door frame as Jr. made his presence known. He stood in the door way now, looking around. Jr. noticed chaos starring at him and Shion yelling at a computer.
" c-chaos?" Jr. questioned as Shion suddenly stopped yelling and quickly turned around. Jr. noticed that their attire had changed as well. chaos wearing a black shirt and baggy blue jeans as Shion wore a pink shirt with a yellow hoodie over it. She also wore jeans. Shion's eyes grew wide as she stood up from her seat.
" Chief? Uh...Chief?"
" Jr.!" Shion happily exclaimed as she gave him a light hug. chaos walked over to the monitor.
" We'll contact you later." chaos replied and quickly turned the screen off, ignoring Allen's protests. Shion placed her hands on both Jr.'s shoulders and looked him over.
" Jr...I'm so glad that your okay!! You haven't woken up in a week!! How are you feeling!?"
" A week!?" Jr. thought incredulously as he shrugged of Shion's grip. Had he been out that long?
" Don't worry Jr." chaos intervened as he looked over at Jr.
" What happened? Where are we!? Where's MOMO!?" Jr. blurted out as Shion looked surprisingly at him. Full of energy already and just woken up? Sheesh...
" Were at my house..." Shion spoke softly. " And as for what happened..."
" You should sit down Jr..." chaos asked as Jr. looked over to chaos confusingly. He gave a weak nod as they left the room.
.....................
" The only thing I remember was everything turning white...after Mizu..." Jr trailed of as Shion shook her head.
" It's ok Jr...we know how you feel..."
" How would you know...it wasn't your fault that she got shot at..." Jr. mumbled bitterly as chaos frowned.
" Jr., were not placing the blame on you...things happen...we didn't know it would happen, neither did you...so you have to stop blaming yourself for things repeatedly..." chaos informed as they were now seated in what was the living room. Jr. sighed and cupped his chin in both hands.
" You blacked out suddenly after the light faded..." Shion began to explain.
" Well, my theory is that after what happened to Mizu..." chaos paused. " You must have unleashed some type of suppressed powers..."
" What?"
" Yes...it makes sense...if you think about it..." chaos trailed off as Jr. went into deep thought. This sounded just like a repeat of the Miltian Conflict...all those U.R.T.V.'S...
" The power you unleashed spread to a very wide range...you..." chaos was stopped by a disapproving look by Shion.
" What? Tell me!" Jr. snapped as they both looked at him, a hint of pass shock. " What??"
" We were watching the news...the reporter side no suspects have been found...what's worse...the light was emitted from you...it spread and killed about half of the people in the building..." Shion quietly spoke as it was Jr.'s turn to be surprised.
Half?...Jr. buried his face in his hands, suddenly remembering his killing spree.
" What the hell was I doing....what came over me? I didn't have to go that far...was...it...because I couldn't control...my...fear?" He thought as chaos leaned into the couch.
" Jr...we've been doing all we can on finding the whereabouts of MOMO...but we haven't found much...It's been hard, seeing as we now have to keep low for awhile, we got a few people looking for us." chaos continued as Jr. frowned.
" What have I done?" Jr. whispered as Shion frowned. She got up from her seat and sat down by Jr.
" I'm so sorry Jr...I...never will be able to understand what your going through right now...but we have to be strong..." Shion said in a comforting tone, causing Jr. to gaze at her. She never saw Jr.'s eyes like that...only the time when he looked over Mizu...such despair...the sorrow swallowing him in. Jr. then looked back at the table sitting in front of the couch. A silence had set in, everyone thinking on the pasts events. chaos couldn't take it...and decided to break it.
" We only have a few clues as to who captured MOMO."
" Although it could be anyone..." Jr. whispered as the front door suddenly opened. Everyone glanced over and noticed a man walking in. He seemed to have long dark hair and eyes as he wore a long dark navy kimono. A sword resting it his side.
" Back from the dojo..." The man said as he set the weapon aside. Shion then stood up and walked towards him.
" Welcome back." She said as the man before her only nodded. He looked over her shoulder and smiled.
" Ah, I see you have finally awakened." The man said as chaos and Jr. stood up.
" Jr., this is my brother Jin." Shion said as Jin held his hand out. Jr. slowly took it as they both shook hands. Jin let go and looked around.
" Did I come at a bad time?" Jin questioned.
" No! No...we were just filling Jr. in, he just woke up. Say Jr.? Are you hungry?" Shion questioned him as he gave her an annoyed look.
" I guess so..."
Shion nodded and began to walk past him.
" I'll start cooking dinner then...my good for nothing brother will help me to!...we'll talk more later ok?" Shion reassured him as he only nodded. He saw Jin pout as Shion dragged him over to the kitchen. Jr. then walked past chaos and into the room he had been held in before. chaos's eyes soften. Poor Jr...Although, he was getting annoyed about the way Jr. was taking things...
.....................
Jr. threw himself on the bed and buried his face in the pillow. he had been out for a week and they couldn't find anything at all?
" Dammit..." Jr. mumbled into the pillow as he squeezed it tightly. Why did his life have to suck so bad? He lifted himself off the pillow and examined the bracelet. The stains on it before seemed to have been cleaned off. A rush of feelings came to him as an image of MOMO appeared in his head.
" I cleaned the bracelet for you." chaos said as he leaned on the door frame while a startled Jr. looked over to him.
" Oh..." Jr. only muttered as chaos walked over to the bed and sat at the end of it.
" Jr..."
" Hmm..."
" We will find her." chaos said as Jr. leaned against the wall. He played with the bullet as a silence set it in...
" I miss her..."
" I know." chaos said as he looked over to Jr. He also looked down at the bracelet. Jr. felt awkward suddenly, not sure what else to say.
" I...always heard these cries at night whenever I tried to sleep..." Jr. began. " In a way, I knew it was MOMO...but I ignored them...I then tried to find out if I was right...only to have things screw up right in front of my face...I let her down..."
" You went to save her...didn't you?"
" Well, she doesn't know that...I'm such an ass...I want to apologize to her...although...I don't want her to forgive me..."
" Once you see her, everything will get straightened out. It'll take time though."
" Truthfully, I don't want to see her..." Jr. whispered as chaos raised a brow. " I'm scared to see her...I don't know what I'd say to her...no excuses could replace the pain she must be feeling right now. And here I am...sitting here doing nothing about it."
" Well, your only human Jr., you can't be pushing yourself..."
" U.R.T.V. you mean..."
" So, your still human...we all need to rest...if we didn't, would we go as far to save a loved one?" chaos questioned as Jr. sighed. He suddenly smiled slightly.
" Guess so..."
" Look Jr...there something else I want to talk to you about." chaos said in a more serious tone.
" You need to control yourself."
" Hm?"
" Your powers...along with your temper. I don't want to be rude really, but your letting that temper get the best of you, your letting it get other people hurt."
" And you think I like that!?" Jr. gripped his hands in a fist.
" No."
" Then it's my fault!? Thanks for pointing out the obvious!"
" You see, this is what I mean. You can get angry so easily, it can cost you big one day."
" And you think I don't know that!? Besides...it's already cost me to much..."
" Stop it Jr.!" chaos yelled, surprising said male. He never heard chaos yell before.
" You have to learn to contain yourself and your powers in a situation that is out of your control. Things happen and we have to learn to deal with it. Your not the only one having problems. Your also not alone when it comes to them. You have to realize that were here to help. You don't have to carry the burden alone."
" There my problems!"
" And we choose to get into them." chaos said as he stood up. " We choose to because we care. Everything happens depending on what choices we make Jr. Our choices are what changes the future. Besides, you can't ignore us forever, were your friends."
Jr. looked over to chaos irritably. A tense silence stood in. chaos at first was a strange person to try and get to know. Answering questions with questions sometimes...we all have are reasons for doing things...
And we choose to keep those reasons hidden until the time comes to reveal them.
Jr. stood up in front of chaos. They both seemed annoyed with each other...
" Sorry..."
" Don't apologize Jr. I can understand a little of what you are going through, I hope you just remember that your not alone ok?" chaos said with a tinge of annoyance as he extended his hand out. Jr. held it firmly.
" Thanks...I feel better now...somewhat..." Jr. said as chaos nodded.
" Dinner will be ready around 20 minutes!!" Shion called out as chaos turned his head.
" Look, you go take a nap...I'll wake you up to eat. We'll finish this later..."
" But I slept for a week..."
" You were unconscious for a week." chaos corrected as Jr. only shrugged. " Go, you need it."
" Fine...but before I do...how did I get these injuries?" Jr. pointed out as chaos shook his head.
" We'll talk about it later. Everything will be explained." chaos said as Jr. nodded. chaos left the room and shut the door behind him, leaving Jr. to sit on the bed and gaze outside the window. chaos sighed and crossed his arms. He felt like he didn't get through to Jr. enough...
" I guess I do need some friends right now..." Jr. paused and frowned. " Although, I still feel like it's my fault..."
With that, Jr. closed his eyes and tried to fall back to sleep...but it didn't come easy...
