Chapter 14: The Escape

Nicole's POV

These people came into the room with me, who were they? Were they the ones who had me tied up? No, they just got locked in here with me. They were mean in my dream, I didn't like them. The aliens were unfamiliar maybe they were friendly. The blonde one walked up to me. I coward, very frightened of him.

"Hey, Nicole..you okay?" He asked me nervous. Why was he asking me this, he's mean isn't he? I stayed quiet, I wanted to say leave me alone but I was too frightened. He didn't ask me again but did go to untie me. Why was he doing this, I thought he didn't like me.

Once free I moved as far away from them as possible.

"Nicole, what's going on with you?" The girl asked me. I was so confused. Are they not who I think they are? No, they were just trying to trick me. I won't let them. No way. I didn't trust any of the four.

Shope's POV

I tried to find out what was going on with Nicole but she's not responding to neither Tyler or me. Something was obviously wrong and I couldn't help but get a feeling that Venamus did something more damaging to her than what we expected. Wounds can heal, cuts and bruises. Only Nicole was obviously mentally fragile before, our enemy must've known. So he used it against us. He knew she was our friend, and if he could put her against us we wouldn't be able to fight her because we cared about her.

As for right now though, she just cowered in the corner. Maybe we could convince her we are friends, not enemies. Easier said than done though.

"Do either of you know what's wrong with Nicole?" Tyler asked Mem and Zen, he seemed very concerned.

I was too don't get me wrong, but I was also very much so scared. I was scared Venamus might win. I was scared we'd never get our Nicole back. I was scared I'd never get to see my parents again. I sat off to the side on my own, I had to clear my head. Get it straight. In situations like these it's important to stay sane, things can go nuts if everyone goes out of whack.

Kevin then walked over to me, sat next to me, and then wrapped an arm around my shoulder pulling me into a quick side hug. Something about him being there made me feel like I was safe. Like as long as he was with me nothing bad could happen to me.

"So what do you think we should do?" He asked me. Being the smart one of the four of us I guess having ideas was more or less my thing. Only, I didn't know what we could do.

"Alright Noobs, we have a plan but we can't do it until Nicole has recollected her senses." Zen told us.

"We believe that she has been exposed to a rare gas, which is making her eyes do that weird thing they're doing, but it also allows someone to change their opinion on certain people. It should wear off in about a half hour to and hour as long as she doesn't get exposed to it again." Mem explained to us.

I felt like that made enough sense, only what if they expose it her again? Then what?

"One problem with waiting until she's good, what if Venamus exposed her again? Or all of us at that matter?" I asked. Mem and Zen looked at each other and shared a nod. Mem then took the human form he didn't like being in all that much and walked over to Nicole.

They had a rather lengthy conversation, but Nicole got up and walked over. She was unfortunately still scared of us.

Mem and Zen pulled out their guns and aimed at the door. We all prayed this would work. They fired, the wall busted down and we all took off running as the dust cleared. Mem carried Nicole since she was in a very timid state.

We ran to our escape point, and we were super happy to see that XR4Ti had the ship follow closely. Our escape seemed easy, too easy. We were free though and it felt good.

On the ship Mem and Zen were able to look Nicole over a bit more to see if they were right, and they were. To an extent anyways. It was worse than they thought.

"So as it turns out, your friend got exposed to a lot more than what's normal. It will be difficult to get her back to normal, the easiest way to do this is a twenty four hour wipe of any memories she has of you. So when she's up again it'll be like she never met you guys." Mem told us. We all looked at each other. Nicole wouldn't remember anything about us at all.

"Nothing...at all?" Tyler asked seeming a little upset.

"No, although there is one thing we can do to try and bring it back to her afterwards. We'll need to use your power ball though Tyler." Mem told us. This brightened us up.

"Yes! How do you need it?" He asked, hopeful.

"We'll need to upgrade it and you'll need to learn a new skill. It was going to happen eventually, just it's a bit sooner than we planned." Mem explained.

Zen was already starting on Nicole. She was laying on a table in a closed off glass box with air holes. Her eyes were wide open, still doing the freaky thing they were before, but she was unconscious. It was both creepy and peaceful.

Tyler's powerball was upgrading, Nicole was being changed back. Things were good, then something on a table next to her little box she was in vibrated. It was her cell phone. It was something that couldn't go in the little box with her while this happened.

Hi Nicole your father and I were just wondering when you'd get back home. You don't have to come back yet, just wanted to know when.

"Uh guys, what do we do about this?" I asked everyone. They all turned to me and walked over.

"Sleepover at my place again?" Tyler offered.

I nodded and began typing.

Actually, do you think I could maybe stay the night at Tyler's with all five of us. It was kind of an on the fly thing. Shope also told me I could borrow her pyjamas.

I hoped this would work.

Of course darling, if you need anything don't be afraid to ask!

And safe. We all sighed. Let's just hope this will work.
