Birth Right

All down to Me

Chapter 26

                It was a further week after we had found the mole. We gave her information, some of which was true and most that were fake. Her children and herself were now living in the facility in the safe security of the facility. So far the opponents were taking the bait and we were safe but I always wondered what their plan was. Why did all of the people with abilities leave? They could have fought more yet they left.

                It was all so confusing. My training was going well. In fact all of our training was going well. We were all becoming stronger and fitter, our mental strength had never been stronger. I felt so powerful and so in control of these abilities I was born with. We began training physically as well in this facility since we arrived. I was becoming fitter by the day. We did running exercises as well as weight training too to build our muscles. There was little change in our bodies as we were seen as born as the perfect beings. We could only feel the change of our fitness. It was nice and something which past the time as we waited and waited for what would happen next. We had to make sure we were at our peak so we could take them down. I could feel it now. I could feel that things were going to happen.

                I woke up this one particular morning. I felt the warmth of Alec beside me. Everyone realised that we slept in the same room so they just accepted it. I was lying on my side facing away from him. His arm was draped over my waist. I lifted his arm and crept out of the bed. I looked at Alec who looked so peaceful in his sleep. He wasn’t wearing a shirt so I could see his defined chest before the bed sheet draped over the rest of his body. I smiled. He made me happy and truly cared for me. He would die for me. I read his mind for that. His hair was in a messy but cute bed head style. I walked into the joining bath room.

                I looked into the mirror. I was dressed in strappy top and some pyjama bottoms. I locked the bathroom door. I brushed my teeth and combed my hair. I went into the shower next and felt the warm water. I washed my hair and body in the strawberry scented shampoo and shower gel. I stepped out of the shower and wrapped myself in a towel dressing gown. I went over to the mirror and blow dried my hair until it went into the light glossy curls. I didn’t need my make up doing as usual so I unlocked the door and went into the joining dressing room. It was filled with clothes for both me and Alec. I went to my section and got changed. I was wearing black leggings with some black leather boots with a heel. I wore a light pink flowing blouse that complemented my skin colour. I placed on a few simple bracelets and my silver heart shaped locket that I got from Louise and Mark.  I looked into the mirror at the girl standing before me. I was seventeen. I was still young. Yet inside and after everything I have been through I feel like inside I have aged. I feel so serious. I have never really enjoyed my life it has always been so serious and has always been around my abilities. I sighed. I wonder what my life would have been like without my abilities.

                I would never have met, Alec and Xander and Alastair. I would have never had Louise and Mark as my parents. I appreciated these people. If it hadn’t been for these people I wouldn’t have made it through all of this. I really wish I had my drawing book and my mum’s box with me. I would draw everything and everyone in more detail. I turned around and exited the closet. Alec was still in bed the lazy sod.
