Michael Vey: Revenge of the Elgen

Back Massage

I woke up. I was still in the same cage. I saw Kylee sleeping on her bed. The clock said 3:00. I had tried to sleep, but it was no use. I decided to look around. There was bedding in the bottom of the cage. There was also a small bowl, and a plate of carrots. I looked up and saw Kylee getting out of bed. Her night gown was rimmed with gold, so it must have been from Hatch. She went into her bathroom sleepily. In about five minuits, she came out wearing a T-shirt and jeans. She walked over to my cage, and opened the door. I still cound barely comprehend that I was only about the size of a hamster. Kylee picked me up by the back of my shirt and held me in the air in front of her face.
"Hello, little guy," She said, "We are going to have lots of fun today!" She dropped me into her pocket. I stuck my head out, and saw that she was walking out the door. She walked down the hallway, then into a room labled CAFETERIA. Oh my gosh, was she going to EAT ME! I started to pull myself out of her pocket, but she pushed my head back down with her index finger. I slighly peeked my head out again, and saw that she was holding a tray of food, heading for a table with the rest of Hatch's the electric children. I guess now I was going to have to deal with all of them, instead of just Kylee.
"Hey guys," she said as she sat down.
"What took you so long?" Quentin asked.
"Alright, time to spill the beans," Kylee replied cheerfuly, "Hatch got me a new pet!"
She grabbed me out of her pocket and dropped me onto her milk carton.
"Oh my gosh it's Michael!" Quentin exclaimed.
"I am going to crush you!" Tara yelled as she raised her fist in the air.
"NO!" Kylee screamed as she sheilded me with her hands, "You have no idea how long I've been waiting for Hatch to get me a pet! You have NO IDEA!"
"Ugh FINE!" Tara exclaimed, "But you better get him out of here before I change my mind!"
"Hmph, whatever," Kylee grunted as she picked me up and dropped me back into her pocket.
When she got back to her room, she laid down on her bed an put me on top of her stomach. Her breathing made me feel like I was sitting on a giant balloon.
"What to do now..." she said, "Oh! I have an idea." She pushed me off of her stomach, and then turned onto her back. I really had no idea what she was doing.
"Well?" she asked.
"Um... what?" I said softly.
"Oh so you can talk." she mocked, "Anyway, I want a back massage."
I really did not know how to do a back massage, so I just climbed onto her back, and started walking around. I got tired, but I kept walking, because I had no idea what she would do if I stopped.
She was silent for a long time. I was sweating, and had probably walked about my equivalent of fifteen miles. My legs felt like jelly, and finally, I just fell over.
"Hey, what are you doing?" She asked.
"I can't move my legs." And I really couldn't.
"Well... if you get under my shirt, you could just roll around." I really did not want to go under her shirt, so I was super relieved when the intercom said, "Would all members of team electro please come to room seven B"
"Ope, got to go," she said as she picked me up. She put me in my cage, then walked out the door.
