This new body was strange to him at first these new feelings and movements were different to his normal body and form he had been named Navigator because he was amazing at navigating places and stars he lay down on the bed in the room he was given by the Seeker he got up walking over to a mirror to look at himself this body was a male he had short dark blonde hair, blue eyes and seemed quite short he put his fingers to his new face turning it to take a look at it.

"No! Don't touch me!" a voice yelled from inside his head Navigator grabbed his head shocked, where did that voice come from? he looked around hoping someone was here but nobody was he looked in the mirror again.

"Who are you?" he asked even knowing he might not even get a response from the voice it went quiet in the room so he forgot about it thinking it was just his new mind playing tricks on him he lay back down closing his eyes trying to forget about it.

The next morning Navigator had a meeting with the Seeker he had no idea what for but he had asked to speak to him about something once he arrived at the room he knocked on the door then waited after a few seconds a man in a white suit and dark glasses on opened it letting him through once Navigator was inside the door was closed behind him the Seeker turned around to smile at him.

"Ah Navigator so glad you could join us" he said in a calm voice.

"You wanted to see me Seeker?" the Seeker nodded.

"Have a seat there is much we need to talk about" he gently placed a hand on Navigator's back guiding him towards a white chair that had a white table to match he sat him down then walked back over to the window "As you know Souls need a body to control to be able to live in this world and we do that by taking a human body and placing a Soul inside for it to live, the body you live in young one may have been apart of the resistance that tries to stop us from helping more of our kind from growing"

"And what do I have to do in this?" he asked.

"Since you are in charge of their brain now you can access his memories tell us what we need to know about the resistance and tell us where they are can you do that for me Navigator?" the room went silent until Navigator spoke up.

"Yes Seeker" the Seeker smiled.

"Then go ahead" Navigator closed his eyes reading the boy's mind.

"His name is Aris Jones he's seventeen years old he lived with his parents and younger brother before we came to Earth once we came to Earth he left and went of the map for a while until you found him at that building"

"Yes very good now tell us where the rebels are"

"No!" Navigator held his head again that same voice he heard from before was in his head again Seeker walked forward looking at him.

"What's wrong is he resisting?" Navigator looked up.

"No nothing is wrong I must have been looking at the memories to quickly that's all Seeker"

"Good now let's continue" Navigator went back to his room once they were done he sat down on his bed.

"I know you are in there you don't need to hide anymore" he said at first it was quiet until.

"Give me my body back now!" the voice inside his head yelled.

"I can't I would die if I was removed"

"Aw that's too bad" the boy said inside his head.

"You must be Aris" the voice went quiet.

"Yes... How did you know that?"

"I know everything about you since I'm using your brain I learnt everything about you"

"You aren't in control you know? I am" just then Navigator stood up he looked at his body in shock.

"How did you do that?" he asked.

"I don't know but with what I just did we are getting out of here" he started moving towards the balcony.

"Seeker won't like that"

"Fuck this Seeker I'm leaving" he walked outside and looked down at the water below.

"Climb over the side" Navigator was scared as he slowly climbed over the side hanging onto the metal wall to stop from falling "Jump" Navigator shuck his head.

"I can't" 

"But I can" just then his hands left the wall and he fell landing into the little pool of water as quickly as he fell he climbed out running from the city into a small town "We can't get out of here on foot they would catch us for sure"

"Then what?" they saw a old host driving a car they ran over "Excuse me sir?" Navigator said taking control he looked at him smiling.

"Hello there boy what do you need?"

"I need your car sir if you could just step out" 

"Oh of course" the old man got out letting Navigator in giving him the keys "It's no trouble"

"Thank you sir" he started the car then drove away the old man waving at him back in the city the Seeker knocked on Navigator's door.

"Navigator it is time for the next session" there was no answer "Navigator?" he knocked again still no answer he looked back at the other two Seekers behind him then moved back kicking open the door he walked inside looking around as the two other Seekers looked around the place they both came back.

"Sir he isn't here" the Seeker growled seeing the balcony door open.

"The boy who's body was taken my have a few more fights in him" he said looking down he then looked up at the two of them "Find him... Now"
