THE KINGDOM OF HYBRIDS : THOUGHT DYNASTY

CHAPTER 11 : GINVIN UP ...

The recluses woke up, most were injured and sleeping on beds. They were in a dirty, faded old hospital. Fer Blanc finally opened her eyes, she was a little dazed, her head was spinning and she wondered where she was, and she finally realized where she was. The woman turned her head and saw, on a bed, just to her left, James. She took his hoof and watched him doze, hoping he would wake up. Then she saw Magiko and Mechaphoenix approaching, so she immediately let go of her companion's paw. Magiko addressed these words to him: -Finally awake? It’s 10 o’clock haha! Fer Blanc sighed: -I almost died, let me tell you! -It's okay, just kidding! -Who's the guy next to you? Mechaphénix then spoke.
-I'm MechaPhoenix nice to meet you!
-And-and I'm Peter...
White Iron didn't understand anything about his presentation, why did he introduce himself twice under different names?
Then Magiko explain to White Iron :
-He has DID and Peter his his brother.
She then replied to Mecha.
.-Nice to meet you!
Then, she smiles at him. -She... she seems nice... shut up, Peter. »
Magiko sighed, he had heard this phrase a billion times.
Mecha and Peter were "brothers" but they couldn't stand each other.
Peter was a little too shy and naive for Mecha's liking...
Even though they were the same people.
All of a sudden, Mecha started dancing for no reason with Magiko while listening loud popular memes songs :
-Jojo golden wind!
Magiko laughed and danced too, singing Giorno's theme and doing a dab.
Then after a minute they stopped this circus. White Iron was even more lost.
-Um...are you okay?
Mecha chuckled and answered him.
-Yes! I'm the master of memes, we often dance like that, you'll get used to it one day.
-Oh! Oh Mecha!
-What?-What is love?
-Baby don't hurt me, no more!
They stood up on Tin's tiny table and danced with the grace of a sow.
The woman got fed up with this circus and left to see Nala, she didn't know where to go but she didn't want to stay with them.
-Rooooh come on White Iron dance with us, your not funny !
White Iron walked, she looked at the landscape through the dusty window.
She could see Healing Town from afar. Indeed, the Gargon's vision was extremely precise and effective. Fer Blanc observed every detail.
This city looked very similar to that of Emulation but we could see some differences. The buildings were all incredibly tall, so tall that they reached the clouds.
White Iron notice again these elevators, which went up without any cables.
Something caught his attention: rails connected each of the buildings together, the distance between some was so great that there were high-speed trains to transport travelers between each skyscraper.
They could even go out and enter the apartments directly. But even more impressive; there were two cities.
One on the ground and one in the sky. The upper one had several ports, goods were taken by flying boats. In the distance we could see tiny shops. They were lit up brightly, they all had shops that looked like those in New York. The two capitals were connected by immense rails rising high, connected by trains.
There were also bike and overboard trails, and pedestrian crossings for the more sporty.
For some reason, the woman felt such wonder at the landscape, despite the distance. She hadn't paid attention to the Simulation where she usually felt trapped there. But there she was free.
White Iron felt guilty for feeling this way, but she figured the technology had a certain magic. At home, there wasn't everything, like medicine.
She found that she had lived in a certain poverty, that she was not as lucky as all those pedestrians who walked unconsciously in the street.
She thought about her past, well no... She didn't think about it since she didn't remember it anymore.
She would have liked to have some memories, of her early childhood, what she played with her parents, her friends, her awful mistress, even that she wanted to remember. But there was nothing. She only remembered her life from the age of fifteen. She suddenly had a start. An image barely half a second passed through his mind.
She couldn't see what it was. Disappointed, she put her hand on the window, looked at the landscape one last time and removed it. She joined Nala as planned and chatted with her, but it wasn't really exciting.
James finally woke up, Fer Blanc then rushed to him.
-James! Are you okay?
-Yes, very good.-So much the better!
She kissed him on the head and hugged him tightly.
-Haha! I too am happy to see you again
-Haha! I'm happy to see you too... Um, where are we?
White Iron felt a bad feeling and answered him.
-We are at the Athenia hospital.
There was a blank and James' face seemed to fall apart, then he jumped up from his bed and screamed.
-We've been here too long, it's a waste of time!
Magiko and Mecha then rushed.
Magiko said:
-Wow calm down James! Mecha saved us!
Mecha then laughed.
-Lol, he has his period.
-Shut up Mecha, wrong moment and this joke is so stupid !
-Sorry...
James calmed down and still said angrily:
-Well I don't thank him...
He only delays our death...
But I know what to do now.
James took his things and left his block.
-I am going to serve the Draqui king.
White Irons exclaimed.
-What ?! You freaked out , that Draqui !
-No, I saw that there was an announcement that the king was looking for a valet...
If I show up he will not execute us.
He couldn't do this to one of his guards and his friends.
I'm doing this for all of us.
Fer Blanc exclaimed again:
-Are you leaving me ?!
-No, I just have to go...
She felt hatred rising within her,
How could he betray them?
-Yeah, that's it, get out of there!
James then ran away, his eyes dripping with tears.
Magiko and Mechaphoenix were in shock, had James betrayed them?
But above all...
Had White Iron and James left after only a month?
Was James going to come back ?
