The Learners

Spying

Sasha knew they had all agreed on her not doing this, but she was bored out of her mind, worried, and eager to help in anyway she could. Sasha had come prepared trading out of her long purple dress for a black cat suit and sewing the toxic waste symbol onto the suit. She also had a pair of knives that she had used last time while they had done the easy job of guard duty outside the base making sure no one left with their friends. Which was one of the reasons she was going in. She wasn't seen during the invasion so most likely they wouldn't pick her out as a high school kid that attacked them last time. Sasha was also trained in martial arts, because of her powers she had begged her parents to allow her into it. Sasha teleported to where she remembered an exit being and prayed to god that when her friends saw the note they would come after her cause she would need help for the escape. They needed someone who could exploit their weaknesses and at their current state they were at a huge disadvantage. Sasha walked in hoping that her years in theatre payed off. She had been pleasantly surprised when nothing bad happened that was until she accidently ran into someone.
" I'm sorry I wasn't watching where I was going." Sasha smiled apologetically. " How old are you? You look a little young to be here." The man frowned. " 18 Toxic Waste hired me young, because of my powers." Sasha lied expertly. " You were born with your gifts then." He put together. " I was." Sasha confirmed. " Why did you join if you don't mind me asking, from how I see it they treat power born gifted pretty badly." The man frowned and Sasha would of sighed in relief that not all the people in Toxic Waste were heartless of it wasn't for her situation. " I believe gifts are ment to be shared sir and while their methods aren't the best Toxic Waste I believe is finding a way for people to understand us by making them like us." Sasha stated firmly and she was proud of that speech. He was going to respond when an announcement came. " All gifted come to room 326." It called and Sasha sighed. " I guess that's my que I'll see you later..." Sasha trailed off waiting for his name.
" Agent Cross, but call me Adrian and you are?" He asked and she quickly came up with a name." I'm Agent  Page, but you can call me Lauren." Sasha grinned before waving and following a small group of people to a room where Zia, Aqualia, Kore, and Cynthia were. Zia was in horrible shape her face was a mesh of purple and blood poured everywhere. Her short black hair was dishivled so badly she couldn't see the purple streaks in them. Cynthia looked alright, but she was supporting Kore who Sasha had to hide her surprise was up though to be honest it looked like Kore was going to pass out any minute. A woman with dark brown hair, galaxy like eyes, a brown tank top, and jeans that she recognized as Astrid. Aqualia looked alright she had minor bruising but her light blue eyes still shone with determination.
Sasha caught their eyes and nodded slightly at them showing them she saw them and she could see Aqualia faintly smile. " See Zia these people understand that Toxic Waste is the right way. Allowing those who want to be gifted join and killing any who refuse." Pandora grinned crazily.
" So that's your plan genocide really Pandora I have to say I didn't think you were this far gone." Zia said shaking her head. " You what's your name?" Pandora asked pointing at Sasha. " Lauren Page ma'am." Sasha answered monatonely hoping it was good enough. " What do you poses?" Pandora asked and Sasha was happy she wouldn't have to lie this time.
" Teleportation." Sasha replied honestly. " Mrs Page maybe you could shine some light for Zia here and tell her the reason you joined." Pandora said giving her a sickly sweet smile.
" Well obviously learners and gifted are superior to those without powers seeing as we posses traits that are past most could ever dream of. I believe everyone should have the chance to be gifted it's only fair and those who oppose are obviously not worthy of our gifts." Sasha spoke nervously and Pandora gave her a thoughtful look.
" That's an interesting way of thinking about it , but maybe her point of view changed your mind." Pandora offered.
" I'll admit I can see Miss Page's thinking, but I'm afraid my side is still against you." Zia growled. " Fine kill the girl." Pandora ordered and the guy was about to kill Aqualia when.
" Wait." Sasha cried out not being able to stop herself. " Yes Miss Page." Pandora said annoyed. " If you kill the girl Zia will only hate you and from what I've heard her power is terrifying. Also if you kill a gifted how are you any better then the humans." Sasha said hoping she sounded logical. " Alright do you have a better idea." Pandora asked and Sasha held back a grin. " Maybe if you let me talk to them without any of you around I might be able to convince them." Sasha offered hopefully. Pandora thought about it for a while before nodding. " Alright Lauren Page I'll allow you half an hour no watching from us and no one in the room. That's all I'll give before I come back and we use force." Pandora threatened before leaving the room. As soon as She left Aqualia bounces up. " Sasha what are you doing here!"Aqualia hissed. " I grew tired of doing nothing and decided to take action. I'm good at this aren't I." Sasha smirked. " I'll admit I'm impressed at your act, but what about an escape plan are the others here?" Aqualia asked. " No, but they know I'm here by now." Sasha informed. " Right so you can teleport us out?" Astrid asked. Sasha was about to respond when a alarm went off. Sasha cursed before shaking her head. " My powers aren't working inside." Sasha frowned. " We need to go." Zia stated and she left the room. Sasha quickly ran after her hoping they would get out of this.
