Chapter 25- Limits.

"So what your telling me is that Adara could be some type of weapon that the Order created in order to kill you?" Terrence questioned while Olympia was sitting on the chair to her desk.

"Thats exactly what I'm saying. I don't know if its exactly true but from what I've seen, she has been tested on a lot. From what I can gather from her memories is that she was made that way." Olympia explained, earning a confused gaze from the man in front of her.

"How though? She's just a kid?" Terrence said, a hand on his chin while in thought.

Olympia hummed "I highly doubt that she was enrolled in any of their schools across the country because they would have gone looking for her if she was. My theory of her being a weapon to kill me would be based off the time she had a nightmare." She stated, intertwining her fingers together so her head could rest on them.

"A nightmare?" Terrence asked, looking up to Olympia who looked deep in thought.

"Precisely. You see a week ago she had a nightmare of what I can only assume was of her past in order for her to get that worked up. Anyways she kept screaming and screaming which made me wake up. I tried to help her but as soon as I touched her, her eyes shot open. The whites of her eyes were also completely black along with her natural eye color which frightened me a little. I touched her forehead to make sure she wasn't getting sick when she started screaming again. When she did it felt like all my insides were being ripped to shreds and my mind started to go foggy."

Terrence had a look of shock and worry to which Olympia dismissed by continuing on with what she was going to say.

"It was as if my brain shut down and all I could think of was to fight even if I knew I shouldn't have. I was also confused at first but then I realized that my body was responding to whatever she was doing in her nightmare, which was running from whatever it was she was running from, resulting in my want to tear anything and everything to pieces. In short, I believe that any type of reaction she has to something will be my reaction but opposite."

Olympia explained as she got up from her seat and stretched before cracking her neck. Terrence sat still and pondered all the information he was told.

"So if she were to want to fight you-"

"Then I would want to run and hide, yes" Olympia confirmed which caused worry to spread to every in of his mind.

"Which would mean that I would be vulnerable to her if she wanted to kill me. My question however is why they thought of her as worthless. Don't get me wrong I don't think that she will be of use to me in that way but I also don't think she's worthless."

Olympia proclaimed, standing with her arms across her chest.

"Did they know she could do this? Or did they want her to be something more?" Terrence though out loud which caught Olympia's attention.

She didn't know either, but she would be dammed if she were to leave Adara. Olympia thought of her as a daughter rather than a failed experiment in the eyes of corrupt people.

"Maybe with enough training we can find both your limits." Terrence suggested which made Olympia think.

She hated that she would have to do this but maybe there was a way where this could benefit both parties. Maybe then Adara could finally be at peace knowing that she was safe while Olympia got to know if their fight or flight responses worked both ways.

Maybe, just maybe there was something they could work with being as the Order most likely didn't fix what they caused.

"Fine, but if anything happens to my daughter then I'll kill you, got it?" Olympia warned, a dark and utterly scary aura surrounded her as her eyes stared daggers into Terrence's, making him gulp in fear before agreeing.

Olympia sighed and went to retrieve her daughter from spending time in her classes with the rest of the children. Olympia didn't want Adara to grow up without proper education so instead of enrolling her in the schools where it would be unsafe, she decided to treat her like any other child in her house, in terms of education that is.

Olympia waited outside the door until classes were over. She mulled over what both of them would have to go through but she was more concerned for Adara seeing as she was just a child. Maybe there was another way for them to test their limits, maybe it could just be Olympia going through her hurtful memories and not Adara.

"Mommy!" The little girl shouted, making Olympia jolt her head up to see the cheerful green haired child. Olympia wondered if she was actually born in Marodia or if she was born here but someone in her family was Marodian.

Marodians usually have green hair and black eyes so thats why Olympia wondered about that but no matter, she was here, alive and well and that's all that mattered to her.

"Mommy look!" Adara called, holding up a drawing of Olympia, Terrence, Aunt Rose, Ross, May and Ann all holding hands in front of a castle like building which she could only assume was her their house.

"Its gorgeous honey! I love it!" Olympia exclaimed, a bright smile stretching across her face. The tiny child hugged her mothers legs, making Olympia reach down and pat her child's head softly.

"Lets go?" Olympia asked to which Adara wanted to be carried. Olympia smiled before picking up her daughter and walking off.

Olympia started to curse at herself for letting this get to her so bad but its her daughter, she can't help but worry.

That's when she realized something, the last time Adara was in pain, Olympia took it away so maybe she could also take away the pain of her memories as well.

"Adara?" Olympia called, making the child hum while holding onto her necklace that Olympia got her.

"Can you do something for me?" She questioned which made the girl look up at her mother in wonder.

"Mhm" the little girl said while nodding her head.

"We just need to check on something and I need you to help with it, I promise it won't hurt you" Olympia stated, trying to hide the worry that imprisoned her thoughts.

"Okay but what about mommy?" Adara said, pointing her finger at her mother.

"I'll be fine, I'm strong enough don't worry" Olympia reassured, making the child smile.

Olympia had Terrence talk to Aunt Rose about this whole ordeal in order to get ready in advance so they make their way over to a room that was behind the stairs. Olympia opened the door and walked down the stairs that led to this large room with technology harboring every inch.

"What are we doing here mommy?" The little girl asked to which Olympia told her to sit down on a chair while they wait for the others to arrive.

When they did they told Olympia to place Adara on a chair that had multiple little cords but Olympia instantly refused. She didn't want her child to go through this so she suggested that she go through it instead.

"With all due respect, your grace, this won't work unless we trigger her memories. Don't worry, it won't harm her."

The woman stated. Olympia got her to dress in regular everyday clothing so that she didn't scare the poor child.

"Right, how long till it reaches the amygdala?" Olympia questioned. She wanted this to be quick.

"For a child at her age, possibly a minute or two max, how long she will stay in her feared state will depend on you, your grace" the woman explained which made Olympia sigh in relief.

"I guess we really are going to test our mental limits huh?"
