The Boy With No Tears

Chapter 8

Fiery's P.O.V.

    Keeping the blood from falling on the ground, I follow master through the house to the lab.

    Walking into the lab, I kneeled to wait for my master's order.

    "Fiery, what did I say about interrupting me when I am doing business? Now because you have already been punished by the spell, and your body is already reaching its limit, I will not punish you today. I want you to keep watching them and keep guard around them. Now, you are excused, you can leave but not treat your wounds."

Bowing down, I listen as she walked away from me. Knowing that she will expect me to go to my dimension to leave her presence, I quickly did so and entered my only escape from her. I walked through my home. Unlike Vita, I have a mind of my own. One reason that master is careful around me, and another reason that she has control over mostly of the spells on our body.

Going over to the wall in my room, I chanted a inner mind spell on the mirror on the wall, so I can communicate with Vita without master knowledge. Something I learned over the year with master.

Waiting for the spell to take effect, I watched as the mirror fogged and cleared to show a pale Vita. Though he wear the same clothes and wounds as me, he looked worse. This is a result of being sent to our inner mind, and this is the only way to give him a break from it.

Smiling, I ignore his present state and talked to him. "So, how those master plan to do this crazy revenge of hers'? I slightly understand her reason but don't really care." Looking at him, I waited for a moment for him to respond, and during that I grabbed a chair and making us both sit down. Though he looked to be floating in air.

Shrug. "Her plan is look all the others. Break the person's mind slowly and cause them to lose reason til they listen to master and do what she wants. I don't see the cons and pros from this event but I do see that you have aid the target before you went through the portal. May I ask why Fiery? This is unlike either of us, what has changed?" Even if Vita was pale and weak, his eyes held so much strength, yet no emotion or soul that it made me look away.

Thinking about his question, I thought about why I did it really. Finding an answer, I look at him again. "I would have to say that I did it because something in me wanted to help them. The moment that I attacked that boy, my heart started beating for once since our experiment. But it felt wrong, it felt like what I was doing to the boy was wrong. That the attack was directed to the wrong person, and because of that, my heart squeezed so tight, I thought I was going to die right then. Yet when I let go, my heart froze when I heard master's voice, like it hated her voice and whole being. And when she attacked me, I was happy that those people were not hurt by her." Tilting my head at Vita, I grow more serious. "I felt like I belong with them, so that is why I aided them. Because for some reason, I felt an emotion I never felt and it still lingers in my chest, making me feel incorrect. Like I need to go back to them and not stay any longer with master."

After my response, Vita responded with silence. And then more silence. For over ten minutes, I was meet with silence from him. However he soon spoke up.

"I do not understand these words coming from you. They do not process well in my head, but I must remember that even though we are one body, we are still two minds. Two minds that think in different ways, however, you have not stirred me wrong yet. And if you think this way towards those people, I will allow you to do as you please, and try my best to hide this from master as best as I can."

Grinning at him, I laughed. "If I can right now, I will so hug you." Looking at the clock on the wall, I saw it nearing midnight, and I can already feel the spell being chanted. "Seems that they have trust in my spell and would like to speak to me. Well, it has been over four hours, mostly when time passes different here. So much can happen in so little time. Sorry you have to go back in there, I hope this time the memories are not that bad." Feeling my body obeying the spell, I start to fade.
