 Ms. Linkin walked hesitantly in my room the next morning. " Time to wake up dear. "

 I yawned and stretched my arms out as long as the chains would let me. " Where we going?" I mumbled.

Her smile was unpleasant. " You'll see. "

 30 min. later........

 My mind swam with wonder as I was taken before the court in a room of blue glass, kinda like my castle. As much as I wanted to leave, I was curious with what was going to happen.

Plus, my strength was hardly back yet, so I stumbled like a drunk into the room.

 A man glowered at me with a twisted smile. His eyes were two different colors, blue and red, and he wore glasses. His eyes seemed to stare into my soul. " Welcome Lillith. I do hope your stay wasn't TOO unpleasant. "

My eyes narrowed. " Who are you? "

He cackled loudly. " Straight to the point. I like that. Well, Ms. Impatient, my name is Mr. Nuro. "

" Why do you want me?"

He gasped as if I should know. " Why, because you're special.

" Your levels are the most extraordinary things we've ever seen since we started this company. Your  heart is quick, about a million beats per minute, really queer. You, my dear, are a master piece. " He sat back and laughed some more. " You just need a little fixing up. "

I clenched my fists. " What do you mean?"

" Well, for starters, I want to see how far your strength can really go. And the only way I can do that is to have you battle with another one of our master minds. " He whistled. " Axel, you may come out now. "

A boy emerged from the shadows.

His skin was as blue as a perfect summer sky

And his eyes purple

His smile was pure and almost sweet as he held out his hand to me. 

" Welcome Lillith. "
