Amaria Sky

Chapter 3: "I Guess Some Of The Old Me Does Still Exist"

I was in this institution, which was more of a science lab and a mental ward put together. I was caught in Western Australia when I was 15, just 2 years ago, I was sitting on my porch waiting for Leo to come over, we were going to go see a movie. He owed me one.

him and his mum ran to me screaming to get my things. Naturally I asked why and they told me just to get my shit together and get the hell out of there. I ran into my bedroom and stuffed clothes, my laptop, my charger, my makeup... Etc, you know, all the girly kinda shit into my favourite sports girl bag.

My mum wasn't home, she'd gone to a seminar and my dad was probably drinking in the lounge room. I never got to say goodbye to either of them.

"We've got to go hun, I promise it'll be ok." Leo's mum, Jeanette, reassured me holding out her hand expecting me to take it, I did hastily. 20 minutes later we were cornered by official looking cars and highly armed guys in tux, and after that All I remember is being hooked up to a machine with supposed doctors holding me down and poking me with needles and shoving tubes into my arms and chest. I was scared and confused, just because I was born different to everyone else doesn't mean I'm going to be a murderer, doesn't mean I'm going to be a test subject either.

That day I decided I wasn't going to be defenceless and helpless, I was going to be ruthless and cold. I was going to be Amaria.

So with that thought, I took out everyone in the room just by thinking them dead.

And I don't regret it.

They put me in a room where I couldn't do anything except bounce off the strangely squishy white walls and floor. After about a month of "good behaviour" they let me out and aloud me to talk to other kids around my age. And that was the day I meet Henry and Fi. When Leo saw me he tackled me to the ground and examined me to see if I was hurt. I swear he squashed me and that's how I lost all that weight.

I love that crazy bastard.

I was bombarded by questions about how I killed them so quickly. I also found out I'm the only person alive who is both telekinesis and telepath. They killed off all the others and the only reason I was alive was because I seemed the be stronger than the other TT ( shortened this shit down a little).

I felt pretty good about myself.

2 Months later they put me in a new room which was basically as boring as watching grass grow It had iron bars over the glass windows. The door was basically a chuck of metal with a small lump which was used as a handle. There was an old hospital bed from what looked like the 17th century, old, musty and disgusting. I hated it in there. At least the squishy white room was like a trampoline.

Fi, Leo and Henry made it out to the other side of the fence a few weeks later. They left a note saying "were coming back for you A" that was my nickname that only Leo was aloud to call me. I call him Chino because it sounded Italian enough for me.

******

I kick an old coke can over the concrete inside the old servo, it was old and rusted. No one has been here in a long time.

"How'd you know this place existed?" I asked Fi flipping through a magazine issue of Vogue from June 2005.

"My dad, he use to take me here after cross country comps, I was 11 when he died..." Everyone went really quite, we all knew (except for Liam) that her dad died trying to save her from the doctors and government officials.

You know what, let's call these government guys barbarians. Let's keep this shit simple shall we?

"Hey, I think I found something..." Henry says trying to open a door that's basically rusted shut.

"I got it" Liam says walking up to the door. He grabbed the handle and the rust just fell off. No better way to explain it, the rust just fell off.

He opened the door and inside were 4 rotting, human bodies. Fi let out a scream and fell to her knees. I was scared stiff. It was disgusting, their eyes

I just stood there and stared and the bodies. I don't know why but I started walking towards them, Leo pulled me back "Amaria, get back her right now!" He said panicked in his over protective brother voice.

There was what seemed to be one woman out of the 4 people lying, crumbled and destroyed. There was a necklace that seemed way to familiar.

I shook off Leo's hand and walked froward squinting in the dark. There was a love heart shape for a pendant with a name engraved.

Amaria.

It was the same necklace I got my mum for her birthday the year before I was taken away. I fell to my knees in front of my mother. It was so obvious it was her now.

Same hair colour, same engagement ring.

I didn't want to know how she died. I wanted to know what killed her.

I didn't recognise anyone else. I only recognised my mum.

I didn't realise I was crying until Leo picked me up. I started to scream. Scream for my mum, I thought maybe if she heard me she'd just jump back up. That she'd walk up to me and hug me and hold me and tell me everything was gonna be just fine.

Leo carried me all the way to the car and put me in the back seat and wrapped me in a blanket. I guess we sat in the back seat for a long time. With him telling me it's alright and everything was going to be ok and Henry driving. I wish I could have had the strength to walk back in there and burry my mum. But I didn't. My mum deserved a proper burial. Not to be shoved in the back room of a petrol station left to rot.

Mum. If u can hear me. I'm so sorry for always being a bitch and taking you for granted. If I could wish for one thing it would be for you to be alive and to be holding me telling me everything was ok.

I guess some of the old me does still exist.

Soz it took so long to update (if you do actually read this book) I'm a lazy ass and I'm moving house for the 8th freaking time so I've been real busy cleaning my room and buying marvel superhero stuff to put in my room. DON'T JUDGE MEH!"
