Chapter 3
Reconstructed
"Hello, little boy. I do not have time to waste so come here." holding out his hand for the little guy.
Seiji just glared, "No, my dad told me not to go with strangers."
Cire just sighed in anger, "I'm on thin ice right now, so I won't waste any of my time!" He threw a smoke bomb at them and grabbed Seiji. He was already knocked out from too much smoke, so that made to easier to hold him.
Samantha looked in horror. "Seiji!" was her final word before collapsing. Too much smoke came in her lungs for her to breathe properly. Cire grabbed the little boy and climbed up the rope to the flying machine.
Cire looked at the driver. He was a very young soldier, maybe twelve or thirteen. But age didn't matter to Cire, who expects everyone can do the same as the other. To him, he thought humans were just ordinary creatures, nothing special.
"Ah man, kids are tough. Put him with the girl."
The driver stared at the child, "Sir, that boy looks just like that girl."
Cire stared at children, "Brother, and sister. Here is my order, to reconstruct them."
"Sir, but they're just kids. Why?"
"Because they're special. They're witches. Young and powerful. Here, reconstruct them." he walked to the door of his office closing the door before turning around, "Surely they will become powerful minions."
The soldier just stared at the kids, they were just too young. He couldn't reconstruct them, but he had to. He picked up the girl and set her on the table. The man grabbed a knife and started to cut her arm clean off completely. Then reached for the already built arm and did some work to connect the robotic arm and shoulder together. This fake arm was a cannon and an arm for her to use as a weapon.
Then he took her clothes off replacing them with the uniform they all wore; an orange shirt with their number and name printed on the back and a pair of gray sweatpants with little boots. Noticing that she would be knocked out, he placed a chip in her fake arm. She would have to follow every order and command. He grabbed her and set her down on the floor and picked Seiji up.
Now he cut off his leg and proceeded to place the fake leg on him. He did the same with Anna to Seiji; put him in uniform and chips. He picked up both children and walked to Cire's office. He tried to knock but failed, Cire accepted his answer, "Enter!"
"Cire, they have been reconstructed."
"Thank you, now set them in their room and have them stay there until night fall."
"Yes, my lord." he walk across the hallway to their rooms, and opened the door. "Well, I best be putting you to bed." setting them down on the bed, he left the room.
The next morning Cire went to go wake up the two brats for their first mission, "Maybe they'll listen this time." opening the door, he could not believe what he saw.
Holding Seiji tightly by the waist, they proceeded to fly gently down to the ground. They looked at their new body in awe, "I wonder what happened to us." she spoke softly no one in particular.
"You have an arm cannon and I have a leg rocket. We're nearby Family Village, let's just go home."
"Okay." They walked the trail to their hometown before a two faced bird flew towards them, they both dodged out of the way. The monster looked at the boy then grabbed Seiji by his shoulders and proceeded to fly upwards. "Nooo! Seiji!" she cried and aimed her arm hitting it square in the chest. The bird fell on the ground dead and Seiji came running towards her.
"That was so cool!"
Not realizing what she had done "Yeah, let's just go home and get this fixed." Many monsters interrupted their path making it longer to reach home. Most of the monsters were easy to slay, but some would take a lot to die. Anna looked at herself and noticed something, "Oh no!" she cried.
"What?" he asked wondering why she just screamed.
"My my my my… My memento! It's gone! Nooo!" she fell on her knees, almost to tears.
Seiji knelt down beside her, "Who?"
"Mom's shirt piece. I found it on the same tree great grandma died in. Now it's gone. All because of that stupid army!" she blew up a tree out of anger. Suddenly, Anna's pupils went from brown to red. She was angry and started to shoot everything in sight.
Seiji looked at Anna in shock; his pupils went from brown to blue. He was sad to see his sister angry and sad. Without thinking he walked up to her, "Anna, calm down." but she shot at a group of trees and an explosion happened.
This seems to snap them back to reality. "Huh? What happened?" she said.
"I don't know. Let's just go home."
They finally reached their house. Anna opened the door and both walked in the see their father sitting on the bed sadly. "What's wrong, dad?" Seiji was still mad at his dad, but he couldn't stay too angry at him.
Hearing that voice made Eric jump up and tightly hug them, "You're alive! You had me worried! But wait?" He saw the arm and leg. "What happened?"
"I don't know," answered Seiji, "We woke up like this."
Eric shook his head, "No matter what. I'm so glad to see you both safe, reconstructed or not. Here, let's tell everyone you're okay."
"What just happened?!" he roar, fuming with anger. Cire turned to his henchmen, "Who let them out?!"
The same soldier who reconstructed them spoke up, looking smug, "Well, sir. I believe there is a window in the room. They must've escaped."
Cire stared at him with suspicion, "You didn't let them out, did you?" his eyes turned red, "These are valuable kids. They are witches, with much power because they're young."
"I left them and went back to work, I mean. Every room has a window." he turned back to the wheel. His eyes did not escape the boss.
"You let them out, didn't you?" he knew he opened the window for them to escape. Cire turned to the rest of the members of the ROD, aka Ring of Destruction as written on their shirts. "Men and women. This is what happens when you have mercy, we lose. We are the Ring of Destruction! We do not lose!" He looked back to the driver, "Do not let this happen again. Or else!"
"Yes, my lord. It will never happen again."
"Good. Now let's find them before anything bad happens. Dismissed!" then he left the room. There was a long silence until minute by minute the soldiers left back to work. It was like nothing happened and there was no meeting.
The driver thought about how long he could keep this up, pretending to track them down. After all, he knew the children. But he would never tell Cire, he would have his neck. Literally.
The boy turned to a worker who was doing nothing. "Excuse me, sir, but you should pilot the wheel for a while, I need to have a word with Cire. I mean, Mr. Cire." Nodding in agreement, the extra soldier took the wheel. Even though he didn't actually go find Cire right away, he went into the reconstructed children's room and picked up a piece of cloth. "I can't believe Amber is dead." he spoke softly to himself. "Well, I guess it wouldn't hurt if I left for a while."
He held up a ball of fire in his hand, changing colors when tapping on it, "No, no, no, no, aha! Green!" Green represented sickness, or poison, he could make himself sick on purpose. The young driver sucked up the fire and his face turned green, he walked to Cire's office and barely spoke, "Help me." then threw up on the hard tile.
"Oh my god! Get away from me!" he covered his mouth in disgusted and jumped away, "Go away, stay away from the wheel and me. Stay in your room for a week or two, you seem really sick. We'll leave you alone so we won't get contaminated. Dismissed!" then kicked him out the door.
He again threw up a little, "Jackpot-*Bleah!* Now I'm free." He didn't bother to clean up, even with magic, and walked down the hallway. He was about to open the door when he was intercepted by the co-pilot.
"Whoa, dude! Are you okay?" he asked. The co-pilot was much older than him, but pretended to not be bothered by it.
"Sorry, dude. But I am extremely sick and Cire ordered me to stay in my room for two weeks-*Bleah! cough cough.* He said I needed to stay alone. Bye." quickly tried to walk in but the co-pilot started to talk.
"No can do, bud. I have to stay with you. You're sick!"
The boy responded with a slight smirk, "Jonny is flying the Ship."
"What!? Sorry, but I can't stay with you! Jonny has gotta learn he's too young! Like you!" then ran to the other room.
Finally, he could go in his room. He stepped inside and held a ball of fire. "Oh man, please be pink." Pink meant love or heal, sucking the ball of flame up, his color returned to his face. "Okay, now's my chance." Casting a large swirl of flame around him, he suddenly was wearing a cape, black shirt, black pants, boots and crimson mask.
He grabbed a sack full of items, and opened the window. Before he jumped out, the nurse came in and saw him, dropping the medicine. "Oh my! The Autarch of Flame is kidnapping Logan! He's kidnapping Logan! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" she ran down the hall repeating the same sentence over and over.
The Autarch of Flame was a very wanted thief, and he was always stealing from somebody. He was wanted, dead or alive. Most would want him dead. That is why the nurse was freaked out and started to run away. Logan made sure she wouldn't let anyone know he was on the ship.
Logan, or Autarch of Flame, couldn't help but snicker at the moment. He cast a ball of gray fire, memory change, and threw it at her. The nurse got knocked out and collapse. He snickered again and jumped out the window, free falling. " This is awesome! Whoooooooooooo!" he cried as he fell hundreds of feet to the ground. "This is even more fun in real life!" he started to increase the speed by blowing all colored flames out of his hands. Now he was going three times as fast as he was before.
Even in the sky, there were monsters flying around. Like two faced birds, giant bugs, and flying things. Logan had no problem killing most of them, but some others were a bit too hard. "Stupid monsters."
After five minutes of free falling, Logan used his flames to slow himself down to land. But as he started to land his feet tripped and he landed on his face. He rose from the ground spitting out dirt. "Eww, dirt!" He jumped up and brushed his cape. Oops, wrong area, guess I'll just have to fly there instead. He jumped up with his fireballs and flew until he saw three certain people walking in a forest. He lowered himself a few feet behind them. He silently walked behind them listening to their conversations.
"Dad! Look at what my leg can do!" yelled Seiji.
"No! Look at my arm cannon!" yelled Anna.
"Seed my leg is a roller skate!"
"See! My ams a hammer!"
The Autarch got a bit annoyed with their arguing and almost wanted to quit. But he had to continue to follow them until he found out where they were going.
"Dad, this is the tree mom was talking about." she explained, "Let's buy her here."
"Okay. At least Amber will be happy." Eric said to himself. He really missed his wife. She was everything to him, and he almost lost the children. Eric sighed to himself, he was a horrible father, at least Amber did a better job protecting them. Why wasn't he there to protect them, better yet, why couldn't he have gone with them. "I wish I was there to help you. It should've been me."
Surprisingly, Seiji glared at his father, "Dad! Don't say that! You are a great father and you know it!" He had his arms crossed and was glaring death right in Eric's eyes.
Anna looked shocked and amazed at the same time; her crybaby brother was standing up for her dad. "Wow." she mumbled. "He's right. It's not your fault. Now, let's just bury her here."
Eric opened the bag and took out Amber's body. Anna and Seiji were digging a hole by the tree, and Eric gently set her down in it. Eric left to go to the bathroom and came back, looking a little pale. They sat down after burying her, and started to talk. Logan was getting extremely bored and just wanted to take them away. He knew something was wrong with Eric. This wasn't the man he knew, his voice was monotone which was kind of creepy. Logan held a fireball in his hand, and was aiming for Eric.
