The Last Two

Chapter 5

Amaya

It hit me. Realization. Nova, nova is never usually like this, but her words, what she said. She is so right and i don't even know how i could think other wise. Why did I say yes to Acer. What is going on with my brain, I don't- I hate this feeling. Of regret and everything after it. 

It was the next day, morning. Although I don't remember sleeping, or how I fell asleep, I woke up in my bed and felt relaxation. I guess these are the stages of paranoia. I got up and looked over to the other bed and saw Nova still asleep. I sat there, admiring what I saw, but still feeling that regret, and the uncomfortable feeling, it made me want to cry. I walked into my bathroom, washed my face, and used almost everything they had provided, including the make up, hair straighter and everything that comes with. It was weird. They knew we were coming, they had this all prepared for our arrival. I went back into the room and saw Nova awake, she smiled at me, and walked into the bathroom behind me. I heard a knock on our bedroom door and opened it. It was Acer... Of course. I starred at him, not saying anything at all. "Hey princess", I looked down at my sweaty palms. He touched my chin and pulled my head up so that we were face to face. " Don't be afraid please." He said, in the most calming tone ever. "How do you expect me to feel then? Happy? Joyful? I fell out of a friggen hole into this world. And you think i wouldn't be afraid. You are scaring me. Stop. Stay away from me please." I backed into the room and tried closing the door. He held it open. "you'll see". My hear began pounding, i forced the door shut and noticed Nova walking up to me. I sat down. "I heard it all" she said. I hugged her and cried into her shoulder as she cried with me. Now it had really hit us. What kind of trap hole are we in? What kind of world? And the worst part of it all, is that neither of us remember our past.

I woke up again, feeling calm and relaxed, and then I realized it was happening all over again. This time it was dark outside, it wasn't morning. I looked over and saw Nova, just as i saw her in the morning. My heart pounding out my chest. I got up, and shook her. "Nova wake up!", she woke up immediately and gasped. "Do you remember this morning? Do you remember falling asleep?" I asked. "Yes- this morning.. Wait... It's night? I don't remember falling asleep..." We both starred at each other confused, but our minds clicked at just about the same time, and as cliche, and coincidental as it sounds we both spoke the words "drugs." 

"So they're drugging us. That also explains the constant mood swings." Nova said pacing back and forth. "Bullshit. We're being held hostage Nova! They're going to hurt us." I said and began weeping without control of my tears and how fast they were rushing out. " Why make it so easy though. Do they think we're stupid? Like we won't find out. It's the second day, and we already know that they're drugging us. They made it too easy to figure out, which means somethings up." She said. "Yeah somethings up! They're preparing us, can't you see? it's a hint to get us ready, and they know there's nothing we're going to do about it." I said. " Or are we...?" Nova said, as she stopped pacing, starred at me, and i stood there staring back, blankly. 

"Explain Nova." 

"We'll stand up for ourselves, cause that's not what they're expecting. Although everything seems hopeless right now, there's nothing else we can do right now."

"If we're doing that. Let's do it now. I'm NOT being drugged again." I said

We walked over to the bed room door, took a deep breath and opened it. The upstairs hall way was busy. Men walking around everywhere with gear, and silver brief cases, and army equipment. Not even 10 seconds after we opened the door, almost every person in that hall took notice of Nova and I, and suddenly everything became quiet. Then again, constant bickering of men asking us if we were hungry, if we needed water, if we needed anything. And then Nova said "Stop", not loudly, fairly quietly. But everything stopped, and everyone stood still. "We- we know what you're doing to us. We know it and- and..." Nova couldn't say anymore, and neither could I. What was there to say? I mean what could we do? We couldn't threaten them. 

Everyone had a confused look on their face, till an older looking man walked up and asked us "And what is that ladies...?" But he really did look confused, like he was trying to solve an impossible math problem. I spoke up, "don't act stupid. Drugs! You're drugging Nova and I!" Everyone looked more confuser than ever, especially the man confronting us. "Why on earth would we ever do that? We are here to protect you, not hurt you. ", "Bullshit!" Nova said. Now everyone became defensive. A different man spoke up, "We would NEVER hurt you! You two are treasures to us, not objects.", then another man, " We respect woman completely. In fact we haven't seen any in years from now, how could we ever hurt you?". Now Nova and I were the confused ones. But what are these symptoms...?
