Chapter 4
Angel was currently in her new quarters, which so happened to be across from Cyclonis. She had, in the end, been shown around the ship by some Talons as Cyclonis, or rather...her sister, had been called back to the Bridge.
That little nugget of information, finding out who was whose sister, had come as a worrying, and Angel felt rather incriminating, shock. But at this present moment her curiosity overcame her worry as she stared down her bedroom door. It was really useless to try and do anything else she couldn't read anything because she couldn't actually read the language and she couldn't help out around the ship because she was actually quite useless.
She heard a door slam out front of hers 'Most likely my new "sibling"' she sat there for another minute or so and then decided to do something stupid.
The door made a slight "thunk" as it slid open. Angel stepped forward until her nose almost touched the door opposite 'This would have to be the most stupidest thing I've ever done' she raised her hand and knocked.
"I thought I said that NO ONE is to disturb me!"
'But according to her, I'm not just anyone' Angel drew a shaky breath hoping that her words wouldn't when she spoke "It's me. Are you alright?" silence was the only reply. She thought for a moment that nothing would happen. That she should return to the room across the hall and pretend like nothing had happened.
She was breathing easy until the door opened. Cyclonis looked different without her massive cape. They stared each other in the eye, again, Cyclonis looking a little worse for wear.
"I'm fine, just tired is all. I work with stupid people all day, they drive me insane" here she gave a light laugh; Angel snickered to keep pretences "Do you wanna hang?" Cyclonis just looked at her, confused "No-one's ever asked me that before" Angel smiled a little "Well I'm your sister. If you ever need to talk, you don't really need to ask" She regretted her words as soon as they left her mouth as she was instantly pulled in to the room 'I think this might be a little out of character for her. She doesn't seem to know what to do next' it was true, Cyclonis looked as confused as Angel felt.
"Do you wanna talk about it or do you want a change of subject?" Cyclonis thought for a second "I suppose you would have a lot of questions you want answers to" Angel started but gave a curt nod all the same "I do but I didn't think now would be a good time" Cyclonis stared wide eyed and shook her head "No, now's a perfect time. What do you want to know first?" Angel blinked for a few seconds "Do you know how I got here?" Cyclonis hesitated "Unfortunately no. But I'm glad you've finally come home. I suppose I should explain. You were nine when you went missing. At least they told me you went missing. I was only two at the time, which makes you the older sibling" she said this with a friendly smile "I found out later that there had been a battle, which had been the perfect excuse, and that mother had wiped your memory and performed a complicated ritual intending to send both of us away, but it only worked on you. Obviously I was too young to remember much of anything else. But I remembered you, my big sister" as Cyclonis was speaking Angel realized that they had both taken a seat, one at the desk and the other on the bed. Not that it really mattered much.
'What matters at the moment I think, is finding out what my memories were and how to, maybe, get them back. Might also want to look into why the ritual worked on me and not on Cyclonis. Something else is at work here! And why did she hesitate when I asked if she knew how I got here? She's not telling me everything I need to know! I need to get out of here, and as soon as possible!'
