A single flame in the rain

CHAPTER TWO

I looked at him with absolute hate. I hated him to my entire being, I hated his smile that seemed to brighten up the room, his beautiful amethyst eyes that's drew me in everytime, his bubbly personality that never failed to make me smile, he made me happy and I hated him for it.

" Don't worry, we'll leave tomorrow morning " I said.

" It's okay, you can stay when ever you want " I narrowed my eyes at him, I must admit he's a committed actor, even though I caught him in the act he still wants to act like he cares. I sat at the edge of the sofa watching him intently, the air was tense and awkward but all I could focus on was my anger. They took everything from me, my life, my family and the one thing that made me special.

" I'm sorry " he whispered " I had to "

" No you didn't, you wanted to, but I should have expected it. I am just the pathetic human girl who believed every lie that came out if your dirty mouth " I spat out. A tear escaped my eyes as made its way down my cheek. " I can't believe I trusted you, I loved you" I said standing up walking towards him " and I thought you loved me too, but like everything it was a lie. Huh? " I sniffled, my face wet with tears.

" Ingrid" he cupped my cheeks " we both know your incapable of feeling love, why do you fool yourself, the only person who should feel betrayed is me " he said pushing me away harshly. I stumbled trying to gather my bearings. I couldn't believe what he said, this entitled blue stick and a sorry excuse of a man. " You can stay for the night but I expect you gone by dusk " he snarled.

I raised my hand to slap him across the face but he caught it " I'm different from the boy who visited you in the cage, 5-2 nine- nine " he threw me across the room and snickered. I can't believe I fell in love with such a jerk, he walked back in and said " there's a kid in my bedroom "

" And she's staying there, until I feel like waking her up " I smirked " You can take the couch though"

I sashayed past him and went towards the bedroom.

In the cage with iron bars was a young girl, her midnight Black, her onyx and emarald eyes and pale skin made her look beautiful, the big beautiful wings sprouting out her back making her seem like a God sent angel. With tubes sticking out of her sending electric jolts, gathering whatever data it can. She looked around the white sterile room, trying to find any sign of life, it was empty, save for a few computers.

The door opened revealing the neon blue boy, with his bright amethyst eyes and orange hair. " He..hello " she squeaked. " Who are you? "

He walked towards her , fear evident in his eyes " I'm Albion, who are you? " he stuttered.

" I don't have a name " she said looking down she had been stuck inside this cage for so long, she forgot it.

" It says here you 5-2 nine-nine " he said looking at the clipboard hung on the cage, it had all her personal information " but that's not an actual name is it " she nodded her head. " How about, Ingrid. I have a 'Micorh' who's name is Ingrid "

She nodded her head, outside the room she could hear someone calling for him, she looked at him and smiled gently " Someone calling for you "

" Oh, must be my father " he said standing up. He waved at her, grinning from ear to ear as he walked out, her smiled formed into a straight line as she clicked her tongue, she liked the kid but she wasn't going to forgive their misdeeds against her people just because she made one friend, but he wasn't a friend, he was just like all his kind, evil.

*****

I slowly opened my eyes to see the space where Cassandra was sleeping, empty. Panic started to set in, I jumped out of bed and ran into the living room. I saw Cassie talking to Albion and laughing, I narrowed my eyes. " Cassie, come here sweetheart "I opened my arms as she ran into my embrace. I pushed Cassie behind me as I looked at him. " Cute kid, yours " he asked.

" What if she is? " I smiled, I saw a flash of hurt in his eyes but his eyes had a way of betraying me, so I pushed that thought out of my mind. " Anyway, it doesn't matter, were leaving anyway " I said coldly.

" Yeah, I packed your bag with some supplies " he said.

" Umm..thanks, you didn't have to, I already stole some " I blurted out. He looked at me for a moment before chuckling, his laugh was so melodious, I couldn't help but smile. " Let's go " a cute voice called out, it was Cassandra. I stuttered as I nodded my head. What is wrong with me, I hate the guy. I grabbed our bag full of supplies and left the cabin.

We continued our journey through the forest, I opened the bag the bag, I saw a shiny glint, it stood out the most, I reached in and pulled it out, it was a necklace, my necklace, the last thing my parents gave me, if I remember I left it in the lab during my escape. I felt happy, I needed this, it was the only thing tying me to my past and what fueled my thirst for revenge.
