SEEN

Chapter 17: Confusion and Capture

Senkina turned to the booming voice. She saw a girl with deep purple hair and highlighter pink eyes. It was Lyllan.
"What was that about?" Senkina shouted at Lyllan.
Lyllan looked at Senkina. The hatred that Senkina had last seen in Lyllan's eyes were gone. A different emotion replaced it: concern.
"Like I said need to be done. He was a twin." Lyllan answered, then became angry, "How did you not notice it wasn't Leon Oskaur?"
Leon Oskaur, who was in the corner, stepped forward. Lyllan looked at him in shock. Then she looked at Johnson. Confusion was all over her face.
"Johnson was helping us. We were trying to figure out if this is Jickallyn." Senkina explained.
"Oh." That was all Lyllan could say, "Wait, How did you get out of the containment units?"
"Senkina's wasn't closed all the way. So she was able to escape and release the rest of us." Leon Oskaur explained.
"I went in that room everyone is still in there. Why didn't you release everyone?" Lyllan asked, still very confused.
"Senkina did release everyone." Leon Oskaur answered, starting to be confused too.
"Whatever. If everyone is free, where are they?" Lyllan asked.
"They are in the earth people sanctuary you made." Senkina explained.
Lyllan started to think then turned to a soldier, that had just been silently standing there. She began to speak her language. Senkina didn't want to hear it because she already knew what Lyllan was asking. Senkina turned back to Johnson. He was breathing normally. Lyllan was also starting to lean over Johnson. Looking especially at the black burn on his neck where the orb had been.
Senkina looked up at her. "Do you think he'll be ok?" Senkina asked, looking at the black burn.
Lyllan looked at his neck again then looked at Senkina. "I think if we can find a healer then he should be fine." Lyllan responded, hope and optimism not present in her voice.
"Now what we going to do about her?" Grenta spoke up, "We don't know who she is."
Lyllan looked at her and just shrugged. "We take her with us." Lyllan reasoned.
The group looked at each other and shrugged. They began to walk out of the room towards one of the portals. Lyllan, Tarte, Jache, Grenta, Harta, and Satne all gathered in a little group chippering excitedly. Leon Oskaur and Senkina were both holding Johnson up, both trying to hold him up. Jickallyn just hovered around them, like she had so many questions but didn't want to ask them. As they were walking to the guards' room, Senkina felt that something wasn't right.
She turned around to see nothing in particular wrong. She kept having that nagging feeling. This told her that something was definitely wrong. She kept looking back but nothing stuck out to her.
The feeling didn't disappear it just kept getting worse. Suddenly, it hit Senkina.
"Ambush!" Senkina screamed. The group looked back for a second, but then disappeared. Leon Oskaur looked at her with concern, but he knew that she was not joking.
Senkina felt a heavy object hit her head and darkness welcomed her home.

She was no longer in her room. She was in a apartment. Senkina didn't recognize the apartment. It had a kitchen that was connected to a dining/living room. Then it had a hallway that lead to a bathroom and bedroom.
Senkina heard crying coming from the bedroom. She walked into the room. She saw a young woman on the floor crying. The young woman was crouching in the corner of the room. Senkina went up to her. She tried to get her attention, but the girl wasn't responding.
Senkina ended up figuring that the young woman didn't need to talk. So, Senkina wrapped her arms around the young woman, pulling her into a tight hug. The young woman shivered a bit but leaned into the hug.
The young woman's blond hair was put up in a messy bun. Her peach complexion was made more red because of her crying. Her brown eyes had turned red around the edges and puffed up because of the crying.
If she guessed, Senkina would guess that she was crying over a boy. Senkina just comforted the poor girl. She wished that she could help but she knew that this was just a dream. 
The young woman looked up to see who was comforting her and had a look of shock fill her face. Senkina turned to look behind her. Nothing was behind her. Senkina was confused by her shock but she couldn't ask. Senkina knew she need to get back. She turned back to the young woman and smiled.

She woke up to a dark room. Her hands weren't tied, in fact she wasn't contained. She began to walk around. She looked around and saw she was surrounded by beds, ugly brown beds. Senkina knew were she was.
She began to look for Johnson. He wasn't there. She scavenged looking for him. While she was looking she saw a boy with orange hair walk in. She went up to the boy.
"Do you happen to know where Leon Oskaur's copy is?" Senkina asked.
"Yes he had to go to the infirmary." The boy answered, he immediately fell on his bed.
Senkina walked out and walked down the walkway until she saw a guard. She politely asked if he knew where the infirmary. The guard nodded and pointed to the third door in the next hallway.
Senkina thanked him and went to the infirmary. The infirmary was a room similar to the bedroom but with nurses. She walked over to the bed with Johnson in it. He looked up at her. Surprise on his face.
"What are you doing here?" He hissed.
"I wanted to check on..." Senkina started.
"No," Johnson interrupted, "I mean why didn't they take you with Leon Oskaur and Jickallyn."
"Where did they take Jickallyn and Leon Oskaur?" Senkina asked, terror filling her.
Johnson sighed and whispered, "They took them to be tortured."
