Mica
"Mica" The voice of Miuah'Kyil suddenly
sounded in the back of Mica's head.
"What?" Mica whispered.
"I need you." the black Geperna just
stated.
"Well I can't leave..."
"Really?"
"Yes, really!"
Mica suddenly realised he had drawn the attention of the other people in the
lab. He smiled carefully at them and said: "Bad habit, but I can't lose it."
The lab-assistants went back to their work. Mica relaxed and turned to the
window. Inside the other chamber was a young girl. She was sitting on her
bed yawning. He'd be bored too if he was her. She was one of the new
talents. People had seen her move objects through the air and set things on
fire. Those all could be very useful gifts if she learned to control them.
The thing was that she hadn't done one special thing since she had gotten
here. Maybe it was for the better. Mica wasn't all too fond of his employers
anymore. Gwendolyn had gotten to him maybe.
Suddenly the girl looked right at him and looked at him. She lifted her hand
ans a small spark shot up. But that wasn't what got his atention was the sad
expression in her eyes. They were deep blue, the blue of a summersky that
had seen more than it needed have. The girl was 15. She shouldn't be here.
"No." he whispered.
The girl saw it. She stopped.
"Hang in a little longer and you'll be free." he said.
Once the girl had returned to looking bored Mica turned around to one of the
lab assistnts.
"Is she for real?" he asked.
"We're not sure anymore. She just sits there and keeps telling us she's
normal."
"Maybe there was another one working through her." he suggested.
"Maybe. Another day and we'll return her." the woman said and left it at
that.
"Ok, I'll be outside if you need me."
Mica left and in the long bright white hallways of the institute he looked
for Miuah'Kyil.
"Where are you?" he asked.
"Outside. Looking at the deceased."
"They aren't deceased, the people here still breath and walk around."
"Maybe, but so do some dead things. Anyway I was
looking at the flowers."
"Withered flowers?"
"Yes. Gweai'Urdi wants us to come to the garden."
"Why?"
"She will tell us later."
Mica wasn't quite sure but that answer didn't feel like it should. His
Geperna was hiding something. But Miuah'Ky'il wouldn't tell him, not if he
thought his bond shouldn't know it yet. Mica shrugged. He'd just have to go
and see for himself then.
"What's happening?" he asked
Gwendolyn when he spotted her and her purple Geperna Gweai'Urdi in the
flower fields..
"A field trip." Gwendolyn said smiling.
"Oh no. We just can't leave!" Mica interupted her. She wouldn't do
this to him again.
"Oh yes we can. You know you like it." Gwendolyn looked around, "Come before
someone sees us." She grabbed his hand and led him away. Mica had to
admit it was fun to explore. Maybe he would stay away for good now. He sure
wasn't going to get out of this anyway...
