Rath
walked us down another hallway. I had a
lot of thinking to do. Could it be that
all this time I had thought of Kivar as a ruthless killer he was really just a
king was suffering from the loss of his sister. I don't know. There was
something wrong with this story. Something that just didn't add up right. And I was going to find out what. Could Max and the others really be the bad guys? I looked at Rath. Could Michael be a bad guy?
"Rath," I asked him. "Is it true? What my
father said back there?"
"Yah."
"You
wouldn't lie to me would you, Rath?" I
said in my sugar coated voice.
"Youse
want the truth."
"Yes." He seemed to think about it for a
moment. There was conflict in his
face. I put my hand on his arm. He looked at me and then at Angel.
"Okay
come on." He led both Angel and I down
the hall and into a gray room.
"Okay
the real deal. He's big time
lying. He's just wants to use youse to
get the granolith."
"WHAT!" Rath covered my mouth with his hand.
"Shhhh. Dos youse want them to find us, Ria."
"I'm
in a sci-fi movie. Aliens, hybrids, kings, and what the hell is a
granolith?" Angel said.
Rath
took his hand away. "It is a big rock
that has alien powers," I answered her. "Why are you helping them?" I
asked Rath.
"'Cause
Lonnie said that this is the only way that we'll get off this poor excuse of a
planet and go home."
"Why
do you want to go home so badly?" Angel
asked.
"Because
there's nothing here for me. I mean I
grew up in a sewer. I use to be a
general. I use to be this important
guy. The other guys. The duplicates. Theys don't remember, but we
do. And Lonnie and me. We do anything to go back."
He
sounded just like Michael did. Rath
isn't really a bad guy, just someone who wants to go home.
"What
really happened to me?" Angel asked him.
"Kiver
killed youse. He wanted Antar for
himself. He and Nevik tried to convince
youse that youse should invade Antar but youse refused."
"Because
I couldn't do that to Zan. He was my
best friend." Rath and I looked at
her. She answered, "I'm starting to remember bits and pieces as
Rath tells me." She looked at Rath. "Continue."
"He
stole one of the kings arrows and killed youse himself. Youse see the royal arrows have powers and
Kivar and Nevik wanted his people to think that Zan did it, so theys would go
along with him on the invasion of Antar. The scientist that created us also created youse. Theys had some of your DNA stored away. Don't ask me why, but they did."
We
heard a noise outside. Rath looked
out. "Come on. I gots to get youse two to your room."
We
walked into the hallway and followed Rath to the room.
Author's Note: Thanks for the feedback. Am I getting Rath's accent right? I'll have the next part soon. I hope. Next part will be Angel and Maria talking in the room. Sorry it's short
