As Things Turn

Fei stared disbelievingly at Jaocubi but kept quiet. Citan just accepted the fact, but walked over to a table staring at a diagram of the mutations that had occurred. Elly was still unconscious, but started to stir a little more often.

Rico watched everyone with threatening eyes, almost like him making dares for someone to move.

Jaocubi followed Citan around, and Fei kept his eyes on full alert on Elly.

"So" Citan started. "Joacubi, what are you really" He looked at Jaocubi, who returned a smile. Citan continued. "Or are you just an Element as they call it" The way Citan spoke made Jaocubi think. "He's not a regular surface dwelling –lamb-" He thought.

"Well….are you going to answer me, Jaocubi" The way Citan asked made it seem like it was a challenge.

This answer caused Citan to smirk. "Ok"

"So you were raised on Solaris?" Citan asked getting a skeptical glare from Jaocubi. "Why do you ask?" Jaocubi retorted. "This" He handed the paper to the silver eyed boy.

Jaocubi stared at the paper his eyes turning watery, but he recovered quickly. "I…I was kidnapped" Citan showed signs of sympathy in his eyes, but kept them low.

"So your file" Citan walked closer to Jaocubi. "It's interesting….there's a lot you haven't told us."

"Like what?" Jaocubi said sarcastically.

"Oh, like being created biogenetically"

Rico got up from the wall, his eyes glaring menacingly, his knuckles cracking from him clenching his hands together.

Jaocubi just smiled. "I left that out, huh"
