His Trial, Part II

995 Words
"A human from planet Earth, huh?" Said the one on the center. "How did you got here?" "I..." How should I answer that? "...don't know." "Hmm..." His eyes squinted. "Are you all sure that this one isn't some sort of Veldene?" "Sir! He's a kind human that helped me when I was almost dying, sir. So please, don't kill him!" 023 tried to defend me. Though I feel like he'll get in bigger trouble if he keeps this up. "We've sent out some Delsyians to investigate more on these Veldenes and found out that they're developing a living creature that's able to annihilate us all. It's possible that this one right here is one of them." They're really doubting my existense right now. Damn it, what to do?! "I... I'm not Veldene!" I yelled out of nervousness. "It's easy to deny something if you're really trying to deceive us." Said the one on the right. "We'll have to take you away, examine your body, and know your very purpose here." He added. "I don't... I..." I really don't know what to say. As I looked at 023 and 113, they also look troubled by this. When I was about to talk again, another one of them showed up. "Apologies for being late, we have searched thoroughly on the high-class weapons the so-called human have activated. I brought the report about it." He said, then adjusted his glasses. The three suddenly had interest on their faces from what they heard. "Go on..." The one on the center said. Somehow, I feel like my fate lies upon this person reporting about me. "High-class weapons can only be activated by codes from 150 and up, and only those who are in the first fifteen codes are able to use thirty to forty percent capacity of a weapon. This creature likely has a high capability of using the weapon, sir." "So what you're trying to say is that it can surpass our top-class Delsyians?" The one on the center asked. "Yes, sir." "This is dangerous, Veldene can now use our only weapon against them!?" The one on the right panicked. "Sir, Veldenes can't use circuits. They have no control over something that ignores their commands because Veldene minds consists of queer matter. And circuits can't recognize and connect to them." He explained. "But this one right here can possibly be one of them." "I am not." I muttered. Why are they so convinced that I'm a Veldene? This is getting annoying. "We have no clue for that, sir. If you let us examine this thing, then we might be able to tell if it's from Veldenes or not." "Very well then, I'll have a report about this by next week." The one on the center said. "Understood." Answered by the guy with glasses. After that, I look back at 023. He looked relieved. "Now that it's settled with this peculiar thing, we'll discuss about the filed report on N-squad 2. You may leave with that thing now, D138." Then this so-called D138 came near me. "Yes, sir." Then he grabbed me on my shoulder, looking up to see him, he said. "Come with me." I just nodded and went along with him. While we were walking away, I look back and saw 437 staring at me. I waved 'bye' and she smiled back. Then it made me wonder. "Hey, I'll still see them after this is all over, right?" I asked D138. "Depends. If you don't have anything to do with Veldenes, we'll see." He answered. It took us quite a long time to get where he-knows-where. I can't deny that I'm really anxious right now, not knowing how they'll test me. Are they gonna do an autopsy? Are they going to drug me? Or will they do way much worse? The thoughts of it are killing me! When we got into some kind of lab, my eyes wondered around and saw other Delsyians that are busy doing their works. D138 made me stay in a seperate room, and later brought a colleague with him. "That's the subject." He told his partner. "Woah, it's so small..." the other said, looking really amazed to see me. "Can it speak, D138?" "I can." I answered. He got surprised to hear me speak. "Cool! Hi, I'm D933. What are you called?" He asked. "I'm uh, Max. I'm a human from planet Earth." "Awesome! A creature from another planet, I think humans are smaller versions of Delsyians since the structure of your form is very similar to ours. Anyways, it's nice to meet you!" Then he grabbed my hand to shake it. D933 seems like a friendly guy. "We're not here to make friends with it D933, we're gonna study it." D138 reminded him. "I know, but what's so wrong with making new friends?" "We still don't know if it's some kind of Veldene or not." Then D138 looked at me with suspiciousness. "I said I'm not Veldene." I muttered to myself. "Okay, I'll go get the equipments so we can start it right away." D933 left. After that, D138 took a bunch of samples from me, like: saliva, hair, and blood. He made me prick my own finger and squeezed blood out of it. He find it strange seeing my blood has a different color. "This is red as the scarlet eyes, intriguing." "Scarlet eyes? What's that?" I asked. "Hm? Oh it' s a flower from this planet. It's red just like your blood here." He answered. "Cool." He got back to examining those samples. I was just at some corner looking around. Then I stumbled upon a big book, everything else is actually big to me. I guess it's the their standard size since they're all big people, and I'm just way too small to them. I picked the book and scanned the pages. Everything there was written in some unknown language. It was no use reading it, I can't understand a thing. I placed it back to where I picked it up. Then D933 came back with some stuff. "Let's start with examining right now!" He excitedly said while looking at me. I hope those equipments won't hurt me.   Chapter end.
