Chapter 6
Entering the station Delta saw Sinclair in the booth, the Alpha daddy knew the man was just being cautious but locking himself in the booth may have been going a little overboard.
"Hey sport, I see you two took care of Lambs goons, it's good to see you're okay" Sinclair spoke nervously, as if the slightest misstep in his words would result in a beating. Concerned for the aging conman Delta stepped forward, Sinclair was looking over his shoulder, it didn't take an idiot to know who he was looking at.
Tapping on the glass to get his attention Delta moaned in a concerned fashion, after all if he was going to get Eleanor back he'd need the man; he had to show him the armoured adolescent behind him wasn't a threat, and he had an idea on how to do it.
In response to Delta's moan Sinclair gave an obviously false smile "Me? I'm fine, don't you worry, it's just… your 'friend' over there, I don't want to have lived this long in this hellhole to be cut down by some kid in a suit".
Sighing mentally Delta turned and beckoned for the object of Sinclair's fears to come closer, giving a curious hum as she approached the Sisters eye was caught by the frightened businessman behind the reinforced glass of the booth.
Giving a grunt aimed at Sinclair Delta tried to grease the wheels of this conversation, to his surprise Sinclair quickly got the idea.
"Um… hello" Sinclair began, rather timidly "M-my names Sinclair, what's yours?" Realizing his mistake Sinclair mentally chastised himself for his thoughtless question. "Oh, I'm terribly sorry for that I wasn't thin-"he was cut off in his apology as the silent Sister raised her hand.
Head tilting slightly to the side the Sister seemed deep in thought, "is she remembering something?" Delta found himself thinking.
"My name…" the Sister thought, "I didn't need a name in the family, they were fine with calling me Sister, or Big sis, but now that I've been asked, I can remember something…" The Sister was mentally wracking her brain, trying to remember something that had long ago been lost.
"My name was, eve… no, there was more than that, my name was, IS, Evelyn"
Head snapping up in sudden remembrance she hummed lightly at the thought, "I have a name now" But now that she remembered how could she let the two men before her know? Curse whoever thought to take away my voice!
Hum turning to growl in what would appear to be record time the grating sound startled Sinclair, who immediately backed away from the glass. "I'm, uh… sorry if I made you remember something you didn't want to jus-"Cut off as the Sister turned and ran, Delta made to follow shortly after.
She ran into the booth opposite the one Sinclair, it was a dilapidated room, but in this city what wasn't.
He found her rummaging through the filing cabinet there, pulling up papers giving them a once over before tossing them aside "What is she doing?" Delta thought curiously as more and more paper was scattered across the floor.
Stopping as she appeared to finally find what she was looking for, she held up the page to the slightly confused Daddy.
The page was a report of evening traffic along the train line and seemed to be of little importance, voicing his confusion the only way he knew how she pointed out letters, which he read as she did so.
The first three letters of evening, so… Eve, then she chose the second set of three, which were the first three letters of line, "Evelin?" the daddy found himself thinking, "That doesn't seem right" Delta thought of names that were closely similar to what she'd pointed out, all the while the Sister looked at him hopefully, of course it was more of a feeling rather than an obvious emotion, after all he couldn't see her face.
"Maybe… Evelyn, that's it!" Delta thought triumphantly, Delta found himself thinking "Her name is Evelyn, what a nice name". Delta nodded in confirmation of his realisation and she gave happy sound before wrapping her arms around his thick midsection.
"What's goin' on over there?" Sinclair shouted from the opposite booth, in response Evelyn let go and looked through the dirty glass at him. Moving back towards him Delta shared her name using the same process she had with him.
"Well, it's great to meet you Evelyn, but I need more proof to trust you…" Sinclair still seemed to not trust her, Delta guessed it was time to take a drastic step and moved towards the door, pulling a brass key from his satchel. "Delta, what're you…" Sinclair began, before suddenly exclaiming "No! Don't open the-" With a hiss the door opened and Delta stepped in.
Giving a grunt and jerking his thumb over his shoulder, his orders were clear, 'get out there or I'll make you'.
"Okay, okay big man just calm down…" Sinclair said as he walked through the open door, eyes never leaving the armoured girl who stood less than three feet away.
"Well hello… Evelyn, it's nice to meet you" Sinclair stated having to look up ever so slightly to meet her gaze. Raising his hand Sinclair gave her the tiniest of waves, before turning back to Delta "There you happy!" he stated, slightly annoyed at the Alpha Daddy's methods of forcing social interaction.
Giving a nod Delta ducked back into the booth to insert the key he'd taken from Gracie earlier, the train tunnel that led to the next section of the city opened, but as it did so Delta heard a loud yell from outside the booth.
Fearing the worst he quickly leapt from within, ready to attack any and all who threatened his comrades, only to find Sinclair trapped within the arms of Evelyn who'd thought now a good time as any to give the charismatic businessman a hug.
Sighing in relief before giving the area a once over just to be sure of the groups safety he gave a loud groan as to announce their departure. This noise had the desired effect as the hugging pair parted, Evelyn staying where she was and Sinclair having a slight pause before giving an unsure chuckle.
"I suppose she's okay after all, I'll be waiting in the train" The old southerner stated, giving Delta a wink part way through "don't keep me waiting you two…" he finished entering the Train through the side doors.
Looking to the Armour clad teen Delta moved to enter the Train but was stopped when the Sister fell in step beside him. Looking at her now, he could only imagine what she looked like beneath the helmet, hell, he wondered what he looked like.
He knew from this point he and her were bound on this journey.
And he would be damned if he didn't see it through.
A/N: This chapter was fun to write, however hard it was. I'm actually glad i got this Monday off so i could publish this.
Anyway, the reimaging thing didn't happen because most of my friends were have troubles with the laptops they got back, hell even one of their accounts were deleted off the system so he couldn't even log on!
Anyway, i found out what reimaging was (lazy troubleshooting) and seeing as there is absolutely nothing wrong with my laptop i decided to keep it the way it was.
Alright, notes aside please feel free to read and review, it's really important i get feedback on the chapters, not saying i'm going to stop if i don't get X amount of reviews i'm just curious of what you guys think thus far.
Anyway, till next time ~Biohazard888~
