The Way Back

Confused emotions

   I have been wondering about Xin lately, he seems somewhat weird because of the comparisons I have done with him to Johnny, Johnny is 6'3 has brown hair and hazel eyes while Xin has black hair and green eyes seems slim but I have not seen him fight so I do not know how good he is. In this one week I have noticed he has a fun personality. Seems tomorrow I FINALLY leave because my one week of punishment is over.

"Xiiiiiin!" I raise my arms and he grabs my hand, he is still skeptical of me being too close to him.

"Where is Johnny?" I stare at him.

"Seems an emergency happened so he had to leave as you slept yesterday night" he is a bit emotionless, no not the right word, he is lacking in expressions but full of emotions I have learned to read him quite a lot these few days.

"Xin, lets play" I am excited.

"Play what?" He glances at me smiling.

"Hide and seek!" He gives a smirk at my suggestions.

"Okay, you don't have any experiments right now anyways just keep away from any technology" he lets go of my hand.

"Will do, now turn around and count to ten" He does as I say.

   I turn around and when I hear "one" I speed through this place so fast most people just feel wind and see nothing. I make my way to Shawns office. As I enter I make him trip backwards and sit on his chest and let my eyes glow.

Tell me where the location of the machine is at...

"I don't know" he actually answers my mental questions with his voice but I do not have time.

What do you know about this project?

"It has been going on for at least three years, not many of the scientists there are allowed outside"

Who may have the location?

"The guards, the higher ups don't trust most scientists"

Forget it all

  My eyes stop glowing and I leave his office and go to the bathroom and hide in one of the stalls. In less than 3 minutes Xin opens the stall and stares at me with a small smile.

"Found you" he grabs my hand.

"Candy!" I stare at him.

"Soon"

"Xin do you have siblings?"

"Yes"

"How many?"

"3"

"I have a little sister" I grin a bit.

"What is her name?" I stare at him and then smile at his question.

"Lamia"

"Nice name"

"Thank you"

"Hhmm?" He looks at me a bit confused as we keep walking.

"I named her because our parents where eaten or just left us for dead who knows, anyways we are born in eggs and are hatched when blood is laid on us"

"Seems very....bloody"

"We are but it is survival as you humans say eat or be eaten" I chuckle.

"Your a smart ass aren't you" he remarks.

"You see humans do not condone cannibalism but if someone in the mountain kills and eats another human it is okay because he had to survive, you are beings filled with contradictions"
