Six
(Disclaimer: I do not own any characters or alien races in this story but it would be so cool if I did. They belong to Pittacus Lore or James Frey and Jobie Hughes)
A/N: I am soooo sorry that I haven't updated sooner. My laptop crashed and I couldn't use anybody else's and then when I got it fixed I broke my laptop and I had to get a new one. That took a while and I finally got this one started up. Please don't hate me. I swear technology hates me.
Sarah turned her head around so fast I was surprised it didn't snap off.
"Where?" she asked.
"In West Virginia, the Mogs have a base there." I said.
"How do you know?" Sam asked curiously.
"I've been there. When I was thirteen the Mogs kidnapped me and Katarina in Texas and held us there. That's where I developed my invisibility legacy and where they killed Katarina. If we don't find John soon he's going to die. I don't know why they kept him alive this long. It makes no sense." I said, my voice shaking.
"It makes sense actually." Sam said and I shot him a questioning look.
"Well, each time they kill one of you they have to start from scratch, but if they keep John alive they can question him for the location of the others." Sam said.
"We should go find John." Sarah interjected and Sam slammed down on the gas pedal. We sped towards West Virginia as I laid down in the back with a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach.

John
When I woke up I was back in my cell. I sat up and groaned. I had a huge headache and I was sore all over. I stood up slowly and staggered over to my bed. I had just sat down when the electronic lock whirred open and a pair of hands roughly lift me up and throw me out of the room. I landed on the ground roughly and the Mog kicked me in the side.
"Good morning sunshine." The Mog said with a sardonic tone oozing over his lips and a malevolent smile on his face. He grabbed the collar of my shirt and dragged me through the halls. He pushed me through a door. I looked around and noticed it wasn't the same room as before. The Mog strapped me down to a chair despite my struggling and then left me there. A few minutes later another Mog came in pushing a table filled with assorted weapons and syringes. Over the course of the day the Mogs kept torturing me for information. After the first hour or so I slipped out of reality and kept having these twisted images of Henri being killed. After who knows how long I felt myself being thrown into my cell. That became normal over the next two weeks and each day I returned with my mind more muddled. I was starting to lose my memories of Six. All I remembered was her face and even that was slipping away slowly. I had no name to put to it and I felt like I was still in love with Sarah. I had given up hope on Sarah ever finding me or of me getting out of this forsaken place.
I sat in my cell leaning against the wall of my cell one day shining my Lumen around the cell when a flash of bright light arced across my hand. I stood staring at my hand wondering if I had just developed a new Legacy. Then another flash of bright light shot out of my hand arching across the floor. The room smelled like ozone and then it hit me like a bolt of lightning, I could control lightning, or electricity. I walked towards the door and rested my hand against the lock. I knew I couldn't control my Legacy yet but I thought I would try escaping a try. I focused on the lock and willed it to open. I waited for a while but nothing happened. I stood there, dejected and sat down on the floor. Then my temper flared and I sent a huge bolt of lightning at the door and blasted it apart. The Mog standing guard was freaking out and I sent a lightning bolt at him. He dodged out of the way and managed to pull the alarm. I incinerated him short after but Mogs were already pouring in. I sent giant bolts of lightning at them frying them to crisps. The remaining Mogs rushed out of the way as I sprinted past them. I ran down the endless maze of hallways until I crashed head on into Sétrakus Ra. I tried to back away but he grabbed me by the throat and lifted me up. I tried to pry his hands off of me but his grip was like steel. I could see black spots dancing across my vision.
I heard footsteps rushing across the hall and I heard shoes squeak to a stop.
"John!" I heard someone yell. I would recognized that voice anywhere. Sarah. My vision was turning red so I lifted my hand up to Sétrakus Ra's face and shined my Lumen in his face. Shining it as bright as I could. He dropped me to the ground and roared in pain. I laid on the ground coughing like mad as the red in my vision slowly faded away. When I looked up I saw the blast from a Mog cannon flying towards me. I rolled out of the way and it blasted apart the cells behind me. I tried to roll away from the flying debris but on giant piece of concrete landed on my right leg. I saw Sétrakus Ra aiming his canon at me and fired. I felt the pain rack through my body and that was all I remembered before I blacked out.

I woke up in the back of Sam's truck stretched out as much as I could across the back seat with my head in someone's lap. There was also a boy squished in what little room there was between the seats. He looked up at me and noticed that I was awake.
"Thank goodness you're awake. Sit up and give me some room." He said.
"Who are you?" I asked. He looked at me with fake shock.
"You don't know who I am?! I am none other than the one and only number Nine." He said.
"Are you always so irritating?" I asked.
"Yes he is." Sam answered from the driver's seat.
"Great. Of course we get stuck with the irritating number." I complained jokingly.
"Well I'm glad you're awake. Six has been worried sick about you. It's a good thing she's sleeping." Sam said. I sat there confused. I had no idea who Six was.
"Who's Six?" I asked. Whatever Sam was expecting to hear, it certainly wasn't that. He was so in shock that he nearly drove the car off of a cliff.
"Dude, you're kidding right?" Sam asked.
"No. Who is Six? And why would she be worried sick about me." I asked.
"Six is your girlfriend." He told me.
"WHAT! No Sarah is my girlfriend. I've never met anyone named Six." I said.
"Sarah, I think you'd better wake up Six." Sam said solemnly. Sarah leaned back and tried to shake a girl with raven hair awake. She groaned and slapped away Sarah's hand.
"Six, John's awake." Sarah said and the raven haired girl, who I assumed was Six woke up. She looked around and then her eyes locked with mine.
"John…" She said and cupped my face with her hand. Then she leaned in as if she were about to kiss me. I pushed her away and asked "What are you doing?" Six stared at me and rolled her eyes.
"Well I was going to kiss you." She said. As if that wasn't obvious.
"Why? I don't even know you. I have never seen you before a few minutes ago." I said. Six rolled her eyes.
"John stop it. You've never had much of a sense of humor, but this isn't funny." She said.
"I don't know you. Who are you?" I asked her. She shot a look at Sam.
"Six, this is real. He has no idea who you are. I think all of his memories of you have either been wiped or melted away. He's still in love with Sarah." Sam said. A look of pain crossed Six's face.
"No, he has to remember." She said, her voice singing with desperation.
"He doesn't. Not one thing." Sarah said.
"Sam, stop the car." Six said.
"What? Are you insane?" Sam asked.
"STOP THE CAR!" Six yelled and Sam slammed the brakes down. Six opened the door and ran outside. Then she disappeared into thin air.
"Good job buddy!" Nine sarcastically exclaimed.
"I don't know what I did wrong." I said.
"We'll explain it to you later. Right now we need to find Six." Same said and pulled over to the side of the road. Everyone climbed out and we started combing through the country side looking for and invisible girl.
A/N: Six just can't catch a break can she? I hope you liked it. I will update more often now that I have a proper laptop. Once again I am so sorry that it took me this long to update. I hope you can forgive me. And please review and read my other stories if you haven't read them already. I just put up a new one this month. ~Despedida~
