The Six Sectors

Chapter Thirty-Six - Kaithenne

Getting to Ijetix and setting up took no time at all.

Energon definitely fired off a trademark fire blast of a blue hue, revealing him by the garage and happy to see them.

Flint walked over to him, and Kaithenne could assume spoke to him. She couldn't tell if he was happy to see En or not, because it was pitch black. Wheatley made hand gestures, pointing to different areas. Kaithenne didn't understand, but Helo did, sending soldiers off. Nori remained mostly silent, but not in a bad way. On the other hand, Nassa was being silent in a very aggressive way- somehow.

They separated, Kaithenne going with Nassa and Wheatley to get Dyn first. Kaithenne got a different vibe from the quiet and dark lab. It was like a horror movie. Nassa still remained silent, unless asking which way to go. Wheatley gave a point as an answer every time. Eventually, the sight of a tanned, sleeping baby boy was in sight in one of the cages.

Nassa seemed to perk up at the sight, she crept towards him. It must have been Dyn. The group snuck toward him, and he was sleeping peacefully under glass. Nassa attempted to gently open the glass, making as little noise as she could. Dyn stirred, but nothing to extreme.

"Okay... Gently now...." Wheatley muttered, and Kaithenne knew he just had to be tense just by watching. She knew she was, as soon as Dyn began to cry and wake up. He must've had a nightmare. How lovely.

"Shhhhhhhh..." Nassa said, setting her hand on the small child's head, "Look, it's me, cousin Nassa."

Dyn opened his eyes and his crying began to cease, his tiny hands touching her face. "Nah-nah-nah..." He babbled, the tone of it sounding like a nickname. Wheatley chuckled.

"Nah-nah-nah?" He asked, snickering a bit.

Nassa gently picked up Dyn and put a finger up to his lips, before looking at Wheatley. "I can attack you, if that's what you want," Her gaze was colder than ice, her voice quiet and sinister.

"Yeah, but you'd do it with kindness, love." He kissed her cheek and Kaithenne smiled, glad the two were together. They were a perfect fit after all. It felt right for them to have this sort of bond together, much like Helo and Nori.

"Let's focus, guys, now we have to find Vize." Kaithenne stated. "Right? That's the name of his mother right?"

"Vize Fritkos, the third in command of the Sapphire Owls and General of the Synthcian Army? Yep, I'd say we'd have a positive ID." Wheatley peered back at the child. "Cute kid, though."

"Let's go already," Nassa let out an annoyed sigh, "The faster we do this, the faster we can get it over with."

"General Fritkos would be in the same area you guys were in with Tehya and Kaine. Vynsentte would be in Fauna." He turned to Kaithenne. "You will save your king. Follow this path." He pulled up a map. "It's the same place I was kept in with Wbenni. Be careful. Some dangerous stuff is in there." Kaithenne nodded firmly. She understood that Wheatley was trusting her with this. She was going to be on her own.

"I understand." She said, taking the map. "Good luck you too." Wheatley nodded.

"May you find success in your discoveries." He said, using an Ijetixian farewell that he had taught Kaithenne when she asked for their greetings and farewells.

"You too." She ran off, hoping the others were okay.
