The Words she said reverberated throughout her head. "What does that change?" What does that change? She is still the Cinder Peony knew. Right? Cinder wanted to scream and kick. This was for no reason. She has so many emotions building up. They were turning into anger.
Anger. Anger at Adri for everything she did. Anger at Erland because of his riddles. Anger at Kai for making her feel things she shouldn't. Anger at the Lunars, even if she was one,for making the earthen leaders quake in fear because Levana didn't sneeze how she wanted. Anger at Levana for her whole existence. But also love. Love for Peony. Love for Iko. Love for her country. Also hate for that but that is besides the point. And she cares for Kai, well maybe a little more than cares.She let it out. Cinder screamed. In the middle of her walk home. Then she let out a dry sob. And sobbed. She wanted to crumble to the ground, but she easily calmed herself down. At least on the outside.
She finished her walk home. Adri and Pearl were asleep. Good. Cinder grabbed what she needs for her and Peony. She saw a box in the corner of room. She put everything down To look through it. "No..." Cinder said under her breath. She started to dig through the android parts to find the important part. "Thank god." Cinder let out a small sob. She held the chip up to her face. She knew Adri would do it at some point. She then gave the chip a very awkward hug and put it in her calf compartment. "Its ok Iko. I got you." She picked everything up and started to walk again.
"Not so fast." Cinder turned very slowly until she saw the devil herself. Adri. "600 univs are missing. I am assuming you used them." She glared at Cinder with more disgust than usual.
"So what if I did, I am the who works." Cinder shot back.
"Don't you use that tone on me. Did you use it on that new foot of yours." Oh she looked through Iko's 'memory' now Cinder was really happy she didn't tell Iko about being Lunar.
"So what if I did, you knew I needed a new foot for so long. My foot was making me very uncomfortable." Cinder started to have text flash across her vision.
"You really want me to believe that you were 'uncomfortable' how can you feel anything. You. Are . Cyborg." She made sure to let the words linger between them. "I know I am, but that doesn't mean I don't have feelings it is like-" Adri cut her off. "HA! That is crap Cinder. I took you in and cared for you and-" Cinder let out a scream. Pain shot through her spine. It ended as fast as it started. Pearl ran to living room "What the hell was that?" The two girls said.
"Nothing. The doctor who was supposed to do the tests on me messed with my spine." Adri was back to glaring. "Fine. Whatever, I want the foot."
"What! You can't do that." Cinder became wide eyed. "Yes, I can." Cinder sighed. "I need to do some things at my booth. I will give it to you when I get back to the apartment."
"Fine! Be quick." Adri threw her hands up.
What else? What else can she take from me. Cinder thought as she began her journey back to the booth.
----------------A/N
(572-ish words) Wow ok a lot went down in this chapter. I am trying to keep it close to Cinder, except for you know the whole reason I am writing this. Anyways I am sorry if it's a lot going on. I kinda start doing that 😐. I am sorry this is updated later than usual. I know it should have been updated at like 1 in the morning, but I was at a party last night and I got home at like 10 and I could barely keep my eyes open so..... I hope you are enjoying this story, if you have any ideas feel free to comment them. I have been having pretty bad writers block. And please make sure to vote.
