I formed a force field under my feet and used it like a hover board to fly. I flew out of the school and started to fly to an quiet spot in the city.
I calmed down a bit. Quickly landed in an alleyway where nobody could see me. I released the force field. I walked slowly out of the alleyway and on to the footpath. I was slowly going past the television shop. "The French girl Lucile that was kidnapped and apparently killed. Is actually alive. It is believed that the kidnappers have faked her death to get away with the terrible crime. Lucile Collete Skyler Field, which is her full name was kidnapped at the age of three, and would be at the age of twelve today. Reports have been made that she escaped Dr Ernestine's lab, which he injected harmful and sometimes lethal chemicals into innocent children. She is believed to have indigo eyes and a glow in the dark indigo hair. Well I guess that Dr Ernestine's chemical injection with a needle, only made this little girl a freak. Her memory was recorded to have been completely wiped except for her age and name. Reports have said that she was helping her gang in a robbery, to make sure a young man in his twenties called Rex. Didn't kill or hurt anyone. She has apparently pushed a Janitor out of the way of being shot." The news lady told some of my story on tv. The Janitor I had promised to pay back the two hundred dollars, after we stole it and the night I got arrested. He was standing there with a microphone at his face. "That tiny kid saved me over a year ago from being shot. Get a load of this she promised to pay back the money she and her gang had stolen. Its like just don't take the money in the first place and you have nothing to pay back. But I think she is a nice kid she just choose the wrong company and made the wrong choice. And that is what happens, if you make a bad choice you have to pay for it. You can't run away from it, because it will catch up to you eventually." He smiled. The camera was now focused on the news lady." It appears that the French Field family has gone missing which is Collete, Tyeson and ten year old Pierre, has been kidnapped for more than a year now have been rescued and are safely home. This is the end of this news report. I am Ava Timor and you have been watching 7 news, goodnight" the news lady concluded. I just stood at the TV screen for a bit and went on my way. Thank goodness my class school photos was ten minutes away from the end of school bell. I started to slowly walk home and Pretend that nothing happened. "Hey Mona" cried Heironomo. "Did you hear about Lucile?" He asked. I shook my head in denial. "Are you sure because you match the description perfectly" he looked at my eyes." They aren't contact lenses are they" he is on to me, he knows that I am Lucile. Wait a minute Lucile isn't the criminal Sky is. Ok I am Lucile and Sky but I didn't really want to be known as that." Leave me alone" I tried to hide my face. "Lucile don't worry I won't tell anyone" Hieronomo promised. I sighed. "Promises are cheap" I told him. He smiled slightly. "Not if the promise is fulfilled" He told me confidently.
"Oh fine you win, but don't tell anyone" I told him grumpily."We need to talk but in private ok" I grabbed his arm and walked until we were out of sight. I formed a force field under his and my feet. I held his arm tightly so that he didn't fall off when we were in midair. I raced to an abandoned port. "Why are we here? I know you wanted to talk in private but this is ridiculous." he asked surprised. "It isn't private enough" I told him.
"What do you mean?" He asked a bit worried. I quickly formed a force field bubble around him and me. I made the force field bubble have three layers that keeps the oxygen in. I lowered the force field bubble into the bay water. We were now deep under the bay water. I quickly camouflaged the force field bubble, that we're in right now.
"Now we can talk. But you must keep your voice down" I told him. He nodded. "Ok I lied about my name, because I was trying to hide who I really am. An escaped victim and prisoner. I am a freak, because while I was a slave, I was a Guinea pig for Dr Ernestine's experiments. Basically they strapped you to a chair and injected chemicals into you arms, neck and legs. The chemicals made me incredibly I'll and I have had health complications since. That is why I'm a freak, because of the chemicals that made my eyes turn from brown to indigo, a bit of my hair turn from raven black, to glow in the dark indigo hair. And it made me have force field stuff. That may seem cool, but honestly it makes you feel nauseous everyday. I just learned how to not show how sick I'm feeling. Well I still do show a bit of it but not as much.
Look in my home town in France I was called by my first name Lucile. When I was homeless and living on the street, I was called by my middle name Skyler but a nickname for it is Sky. I was kidnapped at age three, and escaped from the people that kidnapped me. Wait what am I doing, how do I know that you won't tell anybody." I told him. He looked at me surprised. "Don't worry I will not tell anyone. I promise. Plus I don't want murdered" he tried to convince me. "So that's your Dark secret" he smiled.
"I have only told you a bit about my dark secret. Because it is something that I have tried to cover up. You may know almost as much as the media but the media. But doesn't stop me from having a darker secret, that you never to be told the whole secret." I told him. He nodded and then smiled. "I like that about you. Your mysterious." He lay back against the force field. "How on Earth am I mysterious?, I have secrets like everyone else" I asked. He shrugged. "You just are" he yawned. "We should really get back up to the surface" he reminded me.
"Oh yeah. Forgot about that." I laughed.
We quickly got to the surface and back onto the abandoned port. I quickly released the force field bubble. "That was fun but....it is now sunset" he looked around. "Wow the afternoon went fast. Too fast" he thought aloud.
"Hey watch it" a loud voice, from the abandoned warehouse yelled. "HELP ME! SOMEONE ANYONE HELP!" Another voice screamed in panic. "Keep quiet you" another harshly snapped.
My eyes opened wide open. We both ran to see what was going on.
We climbed on to some big metal containers. We now had a clear view of what was going in. There were a group of six thugs. In the middle of the circle was a beaten up teenage boy. We watched as one thug punched the poor boy in chest. As some of the thugs were having a discussion of there own. Two thugs had gone with out us realising. Wait a minute, they are ether sneaking up to us from behind. Or they are just going home. I quickly looked behind me. There was no one there.
Then suddenly two figures where standing behind us. They were holding a metal bat, like they we're going bash our heads with it. They were coming towards us slowly and like they are about to attack.
I quickly signalled Hieronomo. He nodded. We quickly and quietly got down trying to avoid the thugs.
"Hey look over there. If we captured that freak we actually might get a lot of money" A female voice shouted in a mocking tone, to the other thugs. Suddenly more thugs came racing out of almost every inch of the abandoned port. We are doomed.
"Capture the freak" is all I could hear from them. The ring leader of the massive gang of thugs appeared. He had a messed up top hat that went half a metre high. His hat had some old but colourful feathers on the top of the hat. He had a scruffy multicoloured hair that stuck out of his hat. His coat looked like potato sacks sown together.
"Capture the freak men and women" the Ringleader of the thugs commanded.
Ropes were cast to almost every part of my legs, arms, hips, and chest. They kept on putting more layers of ropes and chains around me. I couldn't move. The ropes and chains started to dig into my skin, and a bit of it was cutting into me.
Hieronomo had picked up a full on car and was using it to whack away some thugs. He threw the car on the other side of the thugs. "Hey you're not the only one with a secret"he smiled.
He seemed to have defeated most of them, but then five times as much came running in. There seemed to be about a thousand, thugs. We are extremely out numbered.
Hieronomo helped me to get out of the ropes and chains.
"We have to find a way out. Any ideas" he asked short of breath.
"We could fly and hope for the best" I suggested.
"I guess we'll have to try that" he sighed. I quickly formed a force field carrying both of us. I tried to take off in the air really fast, but there were some laser ropes that went straight through the force field getting us, and zapping us with a bit of electricity.
We landed next to a abandoned car, that was a little old but could still work. We quickly got in the car. I got on the drivers seat, and Hieronomo next to me in the passenger seat. I quickly formed a force field in the shape of a car key and started it up. I pressed down on the exhaust. The car suddenly raced off.
"Do you even know how to drive a car?" Hieronomo panicked.
"Well there's a first time for everything" I smiled.
"We're going to die!" He screamed.
"Oh come on I'm not that bad" I told him.
"Yes you are" he held on his seat for dear life. "They are following us"
"Calm down man" I told him.
"How can I calm down when you're driving!" He panicked.
