Hi, well here is my next chapter. Hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. ^-^
Isis felt trapped. She knew this was going to happen. This meeting between them was bound to happen since she first saw him at the infirmary. She had just hoped it never came. Alec could see she wasn't going to respond to him. He walked inside the room and then closed the door. Alec turned back to stare at Isis. He didn't know what to say to her. It's been nearly three years since he last saw or spoken to her. He wasn't sure how to talk to her or what to say.
"Are you feeling better?" he asked.
Isis nodded. Alec expected that. She hadn't said a single word to him since they had found her.
"Isis…" Alec said taking a step closer towards Isis.
"Alec," she said.
Alec stopped. Hearing her say his name made his heart jump. Isis walked towards Alec. Alec just stood there frozen to his spot. Isis was right in front of Alec now. He stared down into her eyes, as she looked up into his. Green eyes searching hazel eyes for a reaction. For an emotion of some sort, to show what it was she was feeling. What happened next wasn't what Alec had expected from Isis. She had pulled her hand back and then slapped Alec. Alec turned his face to face her again. He could see the anger in her eyes, the hate. His cheek burned, but nothing he couldn't take.
"I guess I deserve that," Alec said.
"Get out," Isis said.
"Isis, you got to listen to me. I need to explain to you why…"
"Why? What? Why you did what you did to me back at Manticore. Do you have any idea what you caused me?" Isis said getting angrier.
"I know that what I did was wrong, but I did it to protect you." Alec said trying to get her to understand.
"Protect me? You caused them to take me, to run more tests that they had given up on a long time ago. Ever since they put me down with the Anomalies, they left me alone. But after…after that day…. They came, Alec. They came and they didn't stop till they found what they were looking for." Isis said with angry tears forming in her eyes.
"What?" Alec was confused.
"What do you mean they came for you?" Alec said.
"It doesn't matter now," Isis said turning away from Alec.
"The hell it doesn't," Alec said turning her to face him again.
Alec could see Isis was breathing heavy. Her cheeks were flushed a little. They always did when she got mad. Alec looked down to her lips and then back to her eyes. Isis didn't want to fall again. She didn't want history to repeat itself. She suffered enough for it to happen again.
"Alec, just go. Please…." She whispered.
Alec could see she was hurting. Not just physically, but emotionally too. Alec let go of her arm and nodded.
"Fine," Alec said turning away and walking out of the room, leaving Isis alone to cry.
Alec reached the bottom of the stairs and he held on to the rail of the staircase. He regretted with all his heart what he did to her.
~~~Flash Back to Manticore two years ago 2019~~~
Alec arrived to his Director's office. He stood tall and looked straight ahead. He waited for her to arrive. Just then he heard the door open. Just then Renfro arrived.
"At easy soldier." She said going to stand by her desk.
She turned to face 494 whom stood in front of her desk.
"494, I have been informed of your excellent accomplishments in your last assignment."
"I tend to do the best, ma'am" 494 responded.
"But, I have come to learn something more interesting. Something that concerns me," Renfro said walking towards 494.
"I have heard of your visits down to the lower headquarters," she said walking around him.
494 tried to hide his worry on the subject.
"I've also been informed that you have been coming close with one of the Anomalies," she said standing in front of him, trying to see his reaction.
494 didn't budge. He didn't like that she called Isis an Anomalie. He didn't consider that at all.
"I just want to inform you, that for the sack of x6-949, that you stay away. You are not to come into contact and she is not to come into contact with anyone else."
494 was starting to get worried. When Renfro said for the sack of Isis, he didn't like that.
"I like you 494. I see you as my number one unit leader to the rest of the platoon. I will give you the chance to make this little curricular activity of yours end. I wouldn't like for my number one soldier to get too attached to someone, just like you did with Berrisford's daughter."
At the mention of Berrisford, 494 thought about Rachel. But that's what scared him. Why bring that up, unless Renfro was planning on hurting Isis the same way they had Rachel. Take her out of the picture to keep him their number one soldier.
"You are not to come into contact with 949, nor are you to go to those headquarters again. We wouldn't want to take drastic measures to see that it does, 494."
"You have until tonight midnight 494. End it. Or we will." She said and dismissed him.
It was 11: 45pm when 494 met up with Isis 'downstairs'.
"494, you're early today," Isis said running towards 494, happy to see him.
494 stared at her and knew what he was about to due would hurt her. But he needed to protect her from Renfro. He didn't want to lose her like he had lost Rachel.
"I felt like coming to see you sooner tonight. I hope that's no problem?" he said walking around her.
"It's okay. So what do you want to talk about today?" she asked.
"Nothing," he responded.
"Nothing? Then what do you want to do?" Isis asked turning to face 494.
She looked up into his green eyes and she saw something in them she never saw before. Just then 494 grabbed her and pulled her into a brutal kiss. Isis tried pushing him away. 494 then let her ago. Isis was shocked at what he had done. That had been the first time 494 and her had ever kissed. She had dreamt about it but she never imagined her first kiss would be painful. Nor that 494 would have been so rough with her.
"What's wrong with you?" she demanded him.
"I'm tired of coming here and never getting anything from you," 494 said.
Isis was stunned at what she was hearing.
"Wha….what are you talking about?" Isis said.
"Come on, you have to know why I would come 'here', to see you," 494 said moving his arms out to point out the place. He was trying to make it sound harsh.
"494…why are you saying this to me?" she asked with tears forming in her eyes.
494 got closer to her and he looked at her with such hate, with such disgust.
"I don't know why I bothered. You're nothing more than one of them. An Anomilie. That's all you are."
Isis covered her mouth. He had never called her that.
"You know, I never considered you my friend. I don't even know the meaning of it. All I wanted was to get closer to you….." Alec said moving closer to her, causing Isis to back up into a corner.
"so that I could fuck you," Alec said.
That was all it took for Isis to let the tears fall. He had never considered her a friend. All he cared about was getting her to sleep with him. She had fallen for him and he had just crushed her with what he was confessing to her. Isis was shaking her head. 494 had never used profanity towards her. Never had he said anything like that to her before.
"No…no…" she repeated.
"Yes, yes, yes. You think I didn't know about your little crush on me? Come on 949,"
More tears fell down her eyes. He called her by her designation. He had never done that. He knew how she hated that.
"Did you really think I could ever like someone like you? Or did you think I would fall in love and not care what you were? What you are?" 494 said.
Isis pushed 494 away from her. She was hurt and angry at what he was telling her.
"Get away from me," she shouted.
"I will. This is the last time you'll see of me 949. I can't believe I spent all this time just to get you to summit to me. You would have been nothing but a good fuck to me. Nothing more. I hate you. I despise you and what you are. You're no soldier. You're one of them. An Anomalie."
"You're nothing more than a filthy Human Hybrid!," 494 shouted.
Isis stopped pushing 494. She went to slap him but he grabbed her hand. He pulled her close to him, knowing he would probably leave bruises on her wrist. He looked into her eyes. He then kissed her again, but this time it was different. It was slower than the first, less rough and forced. It was almost a goodbye kiss for 494. He knew he had hurt her. He let her go and look down at her confused hazel eyes.
"I hate you. I would have never loved you," he said pushing away from him and started walking away.
Isis just stood there thinking about what just happened. Just then she slowly fell to the floor and cried from the pain she was feeling inside. He had just broken her heart and stepped on it. 494 stood not far looking at her. His yes softened at the image before him. He then turned away and proceeded to his sleeping courter. When he arrived, he noticed two guards were waiting for him. He walked in and Renfro stood inside.
"Status?" she simply asked.
"Accomplished, X6-949 will no longer expect me to see her again. I made sure of it, ma'am." 494 responded with no emotion.
Renfro smiled and walked towards him.
"Well, done. Gets some rest solider. You got a long day tomorrow," she said walking out of the cell and leaving 494 alone.
494 waited for them to be far away before he started breathing again. He had been holding his breath to keep from letting what was happening to him. 494 felt the tears falling down his face. All he could think about was how he had hurt Isis. The things he said. The image of her face in pain for what he had told her. He had been rough with her. Something he would have never done.
"I'm sorry, Isis. I'm so sorry," he said falling down on his knees and crying.
He had fallen for her and now… he had made sure she never got near him ever again.
~~~End of flashback ~~~
Alec felt the pain in his heart. Just then he turned and rammed his fist into the wall causing a dent in the wall and the wood to brake. Joshua came to see what had happened. He saw Alec and he knew his friend was hurting. Alec turned to look at Joshua looking at him.
"I…I gotta go," he said and left.
Joshua walked towards the stairs and looked at the dent in the wall. He then looked up and saw Isis looking down at him. She had seen Alec's reaction. Everything was messed up. Isis walked back inside her room and closed the door. She slowly slid down the door till she reach the bottom.
"494…..Alec…." she whispered as she cried.
(Runs to hide under bed) okay, so the who talking didn't go as planned. But it leading to something. There will be a scene where they confined in each other what they want to say to each other. It's just....lets say...in a different moment then this one. (waves white flag) stay tune. Let me know what you guys think. :)
