“I-I’m fine but but um thank you sir,” She stuttered. She made sure not keep her head down and to end with a sit just like how she was trained. She brought her arm up revealing a black screen implanted into it. She tapped it but nothing happened.
Chesh looked at the other Ava who was trying to tap on a screen.
“What are you doing?“ She said as she tried to see what the screen. She pushed a section of her long purple hair out of her face so she could see better.
"Currently suffering," Huxley replied. "You?"
Chesh looked at the other Ava who was trying to tap on a screen.
“What are you doing?“ She said as she tried to see what the screen. She pushed a section of her long purple hair out of her face so she could see better.
“It’s supposed to turn on. I it can’t break. It’s impossible I’d be dead right now,” she whispered before looking up at the girl. She froze and stared at her purple hair in awe. “I’m definitely dreaming.”
“Why?“ Chesh asked, slightly confused now. Was it her hair? Or her purple eyes? Or maybe that fact that she looked like she was dressed like a insane asylum patient, or it could be that some of her hair was starting to float.
“Y-your hair is colored like in history books and well it floating now,” she says rambling slightly.
“Like in history books?“ Chesh asked, even more confused. “I didn’t think there were people like me. Ever.“
Kye couldn't help but smile as he watched and listened to the exchange between the girls. He realized that it probably wasn't polite to eaves drop on their conversation but he didn't really have a choice in the matter. His hearing was so sensitive that he could hear what was going on all through the room. He was kind of surprised that he'd gone this long without being noticed.
Eva listened in, wanting to get more context of at least some of the people she and her brothers seemed to be stuck in here with. "People like you?" She questioned.
In my experience, there's always more than just one. Lavinia wrote.
Kyoko lied on the cold ground, tilting her head to the side to look at the quiet boy once more. "Hey, you over there," she pointed in his direction. "Come here."
Kye kind of looked around when the girl spoke. "Uh, do you mean me?" he questioned it, not moving from where he stood.
“Like in history books?“ Chesh asked, even more confused. “I didn’t think there were people like me. Ever.“
“Well I mean I don’t think there hair floated but there’s pictures of people with all different colored hair and eyes. It said that it was all fake and a waste of resources it they looked so cool!” Ava explained really rambling now. “But what do you mean people like you? Are you talking about the-“ she made a motion of hair floating.
Kye kind of looked around when the girl spoke. "Uh, do you mean me?" he questioned it, not moving from where he stood.
"Yes, you." She motioned him over, ignoring the curious look she received from her brother.
“Umm…sort of? Never mind.“ Chesh said as she tried to lay down her hair but failing to do so. “Do you not have hair dye? I mean mine isn’t dyed but I know other people that do dye theirs.“
Kye took a breath and walked over to them. "Is there something I can help you with?" He used a hand to brush his white hair out of his face. He didn't make eye contact with anyone, as he stood there. Both his hands where now resting in his red hoodie's pocket.
Daniel narrowed his eyes on him. "Ooh, pretty." He bit one of his claws and smiled.
"Sit."
"I would much rather stand thank you," Kye nodded to him. "I would also appreciate if you answered my question."
"There's nothing. Nothing at all." Kyoko gave him a small smile. "Just curious as to what you are exactly."
Ava looked down. "No," she whispered back to Chesh fiercely. "I'm running. Running from…" she looked away. "Nevermind, it was a bad idea to bring it up," and she brushed her light brown hair out of her face, standing up. With renewed determination, she looked around for an exit once more.
Kye kind of dipped his head at the question. "By all technicalities, a monster," he mumbled probably not loud enough for hardly anyone to hear.
"I'm sorry? I couldn't hear you. Could you repeat that for me please?"
"Where I come from, I am half elf and half monster according to everyone that knows me," Kye mumbled a little louder for them to hear.
At Kye's words, Ava took a couple steps back. "I-I'm sorry, did you say monster?" her confidence draining out of her.
"Oh? Looks like we have something in common already." she sat up and leaned against her hands. "I'm half elf and half monster, well, Cloaker to be specific."
"According to those who know me, yes." Kye lifted his chin to look at the people around him. "Most take one look at me and turn to leave, they think they know what I am. What do you see when you look at me?" His hair was a mess, his eyes looked like a dull purple, he was wearing a red sweatshirt and black jeans.
"I see… someone who needs to get their hair flat ironed. But cute outfit, though."
Daniel stood up and brushed his pants as he looked up at the boy. "You're so goddamn, tall."
Kye ignored the last comment. "But if you knew that I managed to slaughter everyone in a village out of blind rage, then how would you see me?"
Kyoko shrugged. "I'd say, it's not your fault. I'm sure we've all done some questionable things that we don't necessarily mean."
"What if I did mean it? I honestly do not have an answer, whether I really meant to kill everyone in that village or not," he shrugged and looked down. "It is life I guess."
