Seven

Chapter 3

"Come on Kira, hold it!" The commander said. I was currently in the hanging position and my arms were in pain. I think your arms would be too, if you hung from pole for 5 minutes. This was my personal record. My face was showing pure agony. I couldn't take it anymore. My hoarse but agressive voice could give this out my mouth, "I can't!" And by this, I fell.

"5 minutes and...33 seconds." He said impressed but a little surprised, "Seven still has the record." I rolled my eyes and said "Yeah, but Seven is a guy and I'm Kira, a girl." He only chuckled.

One soldier came rushing in. Before he said something he calmed his breath and said in a hurry "Commander, they need you in the main room. They found something!" The commanders eyes went wide and his mouth opened. "Okay Kira, you're good for today." He quickly said before he ran out with that soldier. I stretch and I wince because of the sound of my bones cracking. "Ok, that's enough for today..." I say quietly to myself and I slowly go out of the gymnasium.

As I was walking I couldn't stop thinking about my weird dreams. I had them before, but not so frequently. This time it was different. Everyday since the Commander told me about the mission. It's like a distant memory that I can't really place it. In every dream there's me, standing in a forest, the sun's rays are making their way through branches full of leaves. The warm breeze caresses my cheeks and the sound of birds singing above me. That's a real music to my ears. I was...free. Suddenly there was a muscular, tall shadow walking towards me. Everytime I see him I feel my heart pounding in joy. And everytime this shadow comes closer I wake up. 

I find myself standing infront of a big library. I always enjoyed reading, especially about the Earth. I enter the library and welcome the librarian. There's a lot of people here as always. 

I walk to the section called 'History'. I was looking over some interesting books, but every book about Earth is interesting. I picked the first book I saw and it was about 'Mobile phones'. It's rather fascinating how the phones functioned. Because the library was extra full for  some reason, I didn't have my usual desk. So being me, I went to the far back and sat down on my bottom. I crossed my legs and put the book on them. 

I couldn't focus on the book. I tried for so long and I just couldn't. The dreams are still on my mind. I closed the book out the frustration, stood up angrily and stomped to the librarian. 

"Hello Nintynine, I have a guestion for you Mrs." She looked up from what ever she was doing and smiled. She urged me to continue. "Do you remember the Earth?" Her, once happy expression quickly turned into a grave expression. She sadly nodded, "Yes, I do remember. I mean...my mother used to tell me. Tell you what, I finish early this evening, do you fancy a cup of tea?" I smiled "That would be wonderful. Shall we meet in the cafeteria?" She nodded and I left so she could work. 

What to do now? I was thinking about something that wasn't really important and suddenly I collided with someone. "Oh my God, I am so so sorry." I said apologetically. "It's fine, I wasn't looking anyway." He is a man, I could tell from the voice he has. I finally looked up and took in his appereance. My heart stopped for a moment. He was very handsome. His dirty blonde straight hair brought his icy blue eyes out. His jaw defined, but not as much as the man from my dreams...His thin lips are looking so soft, so tempting. I may fall in love only by looking at him. He has a tall athletic body. He's wearing a tight T-shirt so his well defined muscles were showing. He also has a triangle shaped body. 

"Are you done checking me out?" He said in the amusing tone. I regained my posture and cleared my throat. "I wasn't checking you out." He smiled and said, "Sure you weren't." I only now realised that he has a hint of an accent. If I remember correctly it was an Australian accent. We were listening to the old recordings with different accents. In other words...he was hot.

"My name's Two hundred and ten, but call me Damian." So he was a normal worker then. "I'm Forty, Kira." He smiled and said "Beautiful name." For some weird reason I felt blood rush to my cheeks. Oh no, I'm blushing. "I think I've never seen you before. In what section are you staying?" Each spacecraft has it's own stations, where people are staying. And it was very hard for people from different sections to meet. The spacecrafts were enormous.

"I'm in A section, my mom works behind the console." He nodded and said "I'm from C." Typical worker. I looked at the clock on the metal wall. I need to meet with the librarian! "Listen...Two hundred and ten?" He nodded. "I have to go now. I have a...meeting with someone. May we meet again." I smiled and extended my hand. He looked at my hand for a second and then grabbed it. "May we meet again Forty." And we parted ways. 

I turned around and as I was walking towards the cafeteria, I could still feel his gaze burning into my back. I glanced back and saw him smiling. Not that comfortable nice smile, but an evil smile. It made me very uncomfortable. I have a very bad feeling about him.

I couldn't help but think about his look as I was walking to the cafeteria.

A.N.: My first note here. I'll be short. Thank you whoever reads this. If you've ever watched the series called The 100, you'll notice very similiar things. But I'm not writing this story based on The 100. I once had a dream about Seven and I'm trying to write my own story. I'm sorry for my grammar mistakes (I'm not a native English speaker).
