Tron: Grid Games (2/10)
Chapter 2
I sped down the old, bumpy road toward Tron City on my light cycle. Kevin Flynn had asked me to gather some of his things from his hideout he used when Clu ruled the grid. Just as I turned the corner which would've brought Tron City into my view another light cycle appeared beside me. Beneath the helmet I saw a boys face and he had striking green eyes that contrasted with his black suit and blue lights.
He sped up so he was beside me then lifted his hand to point at me. Then he swerved in front of me. I crashed onto the gravel as he dived in front of me, my back tire slid out from under my bike and it fell to the side. As my light cycle hit the ground there was a metallic scrape on the gravel. Before my light cycle hit I launched myself from the seat and landed on my feet but unfortunately my momentum kept me going forward. I tucked into a roll but I collided with a rock and ripped part of my skin tight white suit. As I stopped rolling I jumped to my feet and reached over my shoulder to grab my disc. Ready for anything the boy was going to do.
The boy drove up beside me and took hold of the handlebars of his light cycle and tugged hard. The light cycle then derezzed and disappeared back into the stick. As his light cycle derezzed his helmet came off his head showing his dark brown helmet hair. "Program, what is your business here? And who sent you?"
"First of all, I'm not a program, I'm an ISO. Second, Kevin Flynn sent me to gather some of his belongings," I reply to him coldly. Still on the defensive as he came closer, examining my wounds. I knew from his tone that he was a program, possibly a security program for this area. Maybe that's why he looked like a rouge. His black suit was torn and his face looked like he had seen alot, just by his expression.
"Okay, ISO, I am Aaron, the security program for this area of the grid. I am sorry for making you crash your light cycle. Would you like for me to give you a ride back?" he asked me quietly.
"Hello Aaron, I am Solera. And yes, please give me a ride back because you made me crash, and I'm not too happy about that," I reply kind of angrily. Realizing that Aaron is not a threat I reach back and restore my disc to it's original position. He then pulls apart his light cycle bar and his cycle appears. Then he motions for me to get on behind him. So I do, I climb onto the light cycle behind Aaron and wrap my arms around his waist for security. As he begins to speed off toward Tron City he says to me that he is truly sorry for making me crash. I could feel that he was and that he is a morally good person. So I forgave him.
We finally turned that corner and saw Tron City. The lights everywhere filled our vision and spotlights shot up from where the arena is. Aaron then laid on the gas and sped to Kevin Flynn's place near the center of Tron City. He sped to Flynn's place and at the last second he turned the handlebars and skidded to the side of the road. The tires smoked as he stopped before we fell, I jumped off the bike and yelled, "ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME?"
"No, I'm trying to have fun m'lady," he replied in a mocking tone. He swung his leg over the side of his bike. His stance was confident and very odd for someone who had just given someone a ride home. Then he reached into his backpack and took out one of the things Flynn told me to retrieve. The orange spike/bit that represented Clu. My eyes got wide and he laughed.
"How in the world did you get that? That was in my backpack the whole time!" I almost yelled at him
