The Voice Visits

~*~*~*~*The Voice Visits*~*~*~*~*~

Some days later, as me and Helmer were finishing chocolate muffins and icecream , Helmer suddenly asked me an awkward question. Actually it was a bit stupid too.

" Do you have a boyfriend ? I mean like, do you like someone? I mean more than a friend ? " Helmer blushed, causing my cheeks to turn into tomatoes too.

"Helmer. If you had a family who don't know you, ran away from home, and have all the police in America after you, do you think you would have time for that nonsense? " I raised my eyebrows at him.

He lowered his gaze and replied " well, no. " "Exactly " I nodded to empathise my point. "why did you ask?"

At this point Helmer was looking like a deer caught in a light. His eyes grew as big as an octopuses eye, and he stammered . " Uh- I wanted to- ummm- I was just curious." He tried to shrug it of.

I decided not to push him on it. He clearly was embarrassed for some reason.

* Helmers's point of view *

For some reason I had to know wether she had a boyfriend or not. Not that I cared of course. She's just a girl.

Who can make you obey her every wish . And make you laugh. And shines with courage.

The walls slid open.

And in walked a short Tobor. It had straight blue hair and yellow eyes . It automatically walked over to me and slid its fingers down my shirt. "Hi big orange ! " It purred . " How huge are your abs? Please do show me. Do some push-ups for me , huh?"

I rolled my eyes and shoved it away from me, seeing Spectrum's face full of disgust at the Tobor. "Tobor" I told her. Her face changed to loath as she analysed the Tobor.

The Tobor ignored her and came up to me again. "Go on, do some push-ups for your love mm? " That's when Spectrum attacked.

I stared , mesmerised by her actions. She dug into the Tobor's flesh with her nails and bit it with her teeth. In that moment she looked more like a panther than a human, destroying its prey and killing it. But when Spectrum turned to face me, I saw desperation in her hazel eyes. Then she attacked the Tobor again. I snapped back into myself. "Spectrum? Spectrum! " I yelled. She slowly turned back to me. Then like lightning she was in a corner, as far away from the Tobor as possible.

"Spectrum?" I asked nervously. She bit her lip. " I'm sorry Im so sorry, I should be locked up I should be killed oh why why me???" She moaned . I cautiously took a step towards her. She tried to melt into the corner . But then she suddenly stood up. "I won't harm you. You are my friend, and these outbursts only happen when I hate someone a lot or when I have too many emotions, so now I won't attack you."

"Oh thank goodness!" I sighed, narrowing my eyes. " But why did you attack the Tobor? You didn't have too many emotions , and how come you hate it even before you met it? "

She looked away. " It was annoying you."

" Spectrum you know I have dealt with millions already. "I said calmly. " So why did you do that to it?" I gestured at the Tobor , which was mis- functioning on the floor .

"I did it because I ..... Nevermind. " In her eyes I saw her desperately pleading for something to distract me.

A figure entering the room distracted me.

I heard Spectrum gasp. " The Voice.."

"Hello tools . " He said, stepping onto the Tobor. "It's time you were useful."

He stretched his back and took another step. He was about as tall as we were, and had a small nose. His short grey hair hung over his pitch black eyes. He was wearing some jeans and a big jacket. He sounded weird.
