Metropolis: Like a bullet straight to the heart

Chapter 1: Leaving Childhood behind

'' Sensuka...''

Sensuka turned around and saw the little black haired girl who just entered the room. She smiled at her.

'' Hey Tzia. What's up? ''

Tzia sighed and sat on the bed, next to the young girl. Sensuka immediately noticed that she looked worried... And she knew exactly why.

'' I ... I heard that you were leaving... Is that true? ''

Sensuka bit her lips and stared at her. Tzia, who had come to the orphanage 3 years ago, was the closer she had of a sister and also the only one she could call 'a friend '. After all these years of trust and friendship, she was so ashamed to leave her.

'' Yes, Tzia... ''

The little girl looked down .

'' I'm really sorry ... But, they don't want me here anymore, and you know i never liked this place anyway. '' Sensuka said slowly.

'' But ... Where are you going? '' Tzia asked, with sadness in her voice.

'' Metropolis. ''

She said, kind of proudly, pulling a travelling bag out from under the bed. Tzia starred at her, her look filled with admiration.

'' So you ... You're doing it? You'll become a Marduck! ''

'' I'll try at least ... ''

'' What d'ya mean? ''

Sensuka smirked, walked to her closet, took some clothes and put them in her bag. She was tall, skinny, had light brown hair and green eyes. And that was exactly why it would be difficult for her to be a Marduck, She was a girl!

'' Just look at me. ''

'' I don't understand . . . ''

Sensuka smiled gently to her and sat back on the bed. She was so young, innocent ... but engaging. It was precisely why she was so protective with her. Some tough boy around here enjoyed tricking her and being mean with her. But since Sensuka had a … 'Talk' with them, they strangely turned into some kind of angels! And Tzia never had to deal with them again.

'' Tzia ... I'm a girl! Have you ever heard of a woman in the Marduck party? ''

'' No ... Tzia answered after a little time of hesitation. But it doesn't mean a thing! ''

Sensuka laughed quietly and said

'' I certainly hope so! ''

And she got up once again to take the last things she had left in her closet. But Tzia jumped up and grabbed her by the arm.

'' Take me with you! ''

'' What? ''

'' To Metropolis! I want to come with you! ''

'' Tzia ... It's not what you want. ''

'' Yes it is! ''

She yelled, with tears in her eyes. Sensuka squatted down to the little girl and put a hand on her cheeks to wash her tears away.

'' Tzia, listen to me ... You remember, that night we talked about our dreams? ''

'' Ye...Yes. '' She answered, still in tears.

'' And what did i say that night? '' Sensuka asked her friends seriously.

Tzia stared at her, remembering slowly that night Sensuka told her about her childhood dream. This was the night their strong friendship came to life.

'' You... You told me you wanted to become a Marduck...To take your revenge on Robots. ''

'' Yes. And you told me that the only thing you wanted was being adopted by a kind family ... And lived peacefully. ''

The little girl looked down, her shoulders trembling and tears starting to drown her hazel eyes. Sensuka sighed sadly and hugged her tightly.

'' The day has come for our paths to take a different road. The life that you want to live is far different from mine, Tzia. ''

Sensuka said slowly, clearing her throat. The tears were making their way to her eyes, but she didn't let them flow ... She kept every single tear inside , she was a sensitive girl, but yet to proud to show it.

'' I'm so sorry. '' She whispered.

Tzia was almost done crying when they separated from each other. Sensuka brushed once again her hands on Tzia's cheeks and smiled softly.

'' I'll write you, Okay? ''

Tzia nodded and tried to smile back to her, but failed. They stared at each other for what seemed an eternity. When they finally stood up, Sensuka put her hands on Tzia's shoulders and kissed her on the forehead.

'' I already miss you. ''

Tzia didn't know what to say or do. She just stood there, watching Sensuka taking her bag, and leave the room forever. Meanwhile she was sure that , for the first time , she saw a tear running down Sensuka's cheeck.

To be continued…
