Rey's Heart

CHAPTER 3

"You do realize that she will know that we were spying on her right?" Haley whispered to Ellen as she put on the blue head phones in her ears her eyes at the four screens in front of them.

"Am sorry if me being cautious is a problem." Ellen whispered back.

"Nope, its definately not and anyway her being an alien does sum up our fear."

"Yeah, I know." Ellen sighed putting on her head phones.

"How long has it been since she has been staring at the window?" She asked.

"About two hours." Haley answered her.

"Wow, and she hasn't bothered changing positions is this how aliens are?" She faced her.

"I don't know." Haley shrugged.

"Do you thin-." Ellen stared back at the screen that showed them the entire living room once she saw Rey change position

"Please stay silent now." Haley cut her off. 

"If you keep talking like that we won't see anything." She added and Ellen laughed silently.

"Sorry. You do realize that we are using our eyes to see right?" 

"Ya, so?"

"So lets use our ears and eyes for what they are supposed to be used for, because..." Haley started but stopped half way through.

"What is it?" Haley raised an eyebrow at her but when she didn't get an answer she focused on what they were entirely doing, spying on Rey.

                            *****

"Vee, come on I cannot be stuck in this annoying earth alone." Rey complained, she was just trying to atleast see if the only one she could rely on was there and when she didn't get an answer she inhaled rubbed her face and then she looked at the watch once again.

"Off," She said. "On." She said once again and the watch lit a blue.

"Vee its me Rey, I need to know you are with me, so please answer." She begged and the watch still lighting up shaped a form of a face that was light blue, you could almost make out the eyes, ears and the nose too from the, which was an entire face from the hologram.

"Princess, I go where you go remember." It said.

"I thought I would be alone here." Rey exclaimed.

"My apologies Princess."

"Why weren't you answering?"

"You ordered me to take a nap, remember." Vee replied.

"Oh, sorry but you were being super annoying."

"Princess can you smell that?"

"What?"

"The air, its nothing like anything I've ever been in contact with, its funny and very weird."

"Don't worry Vee I will see to it that I leave you here once I fiqure out how to get home." Rey joked and managed a slighy smile but in less than a second she straightened her posture and put on a serious face.

"We will talk later, for now I need help with them, I can feel that they are on their way."

"This earth is not as nice as I thought it would be" Vee said.

"You know what to do."

"Okay Princess. Lights off!" Vee said and immediately the living room lights went off and Rey stood up on her right side she got out from the side pocket a long golden sword.

"No killing anyone!" Vee warned. 

"They are here, there is one at the door and the other one is trying to come in through the huge window on your left side." She added.

"Alright! Lets do this." 

                                  *****

"I cannot believe what my eyes are seeing right now." Haley exclaimed.

"I know, me neither." Ellen added.

"That watch, that thing she was talking to it's an AI, a hologram." Haley explained.

"I thought they were just computerized to make games unique but they are real." Ellen wondered.

"Yes." Haley replied. "How can she see in the dark? She isn't hitting anything and she is moving so fast."

"I don't know, look its like someone is sealing the door, there is someone trying to get in." 

"I can see that, wait where did Rey go?" Haley asked and by the time they were trying to locate the othet cctv angels they saw her drag a masked man in the living room, she swiftly twisted her sword and stabbed him in the palm of his right hand.

"Omg!" Haley gasped closing her eyes.

"Open them she has the other one." Ellen said to her.

                            *****

"Vee, lights please." Rey took a sit back to where she first was.

"What the heck! my hand hurts!" One of the masked man shouted.

"Oh don't you worry your's will too." Rey turned her attention to the other masked man, slowly did the same thing to him she had done to the other man.

"Ouch." He screamed in pain. "What's your problem lady?" He asked.

"My problem?" Rey asked circling between the as she removed their masks and stared at the two bald brown men.

"My problem you asked!" She looked at both of them, took both of their hands, the ones she hadn't hurt and broke them and just she stared at them wince in pain she went back to her sit.

"Those are the hands you use to hurt people." She spoke in a hostile voice.

"You are never going to do that again, I am not sparing you because you deserve it but because I don't want any trouble. Get up both of you."

She added and they both struggled to get up, trying to stop the bleeding with their clothes.

"Tell the one who sent you to take a good look at herself and allow herself to challenge someone who would not overpower her. One minute and not any longer you two should be out of my sight or else I am going to break something else." She said to the both of them and she leaned on the sofa watching them struggle to the door.

"You don't show anyone mercy, why them?" Vee asked once they were out of sight.

"They are human, corrupted humans and even if they tried to fight me they are no match for me. I hope they learn because if they try and come back I won't be so merciful." Rey answered.

"Mhhh..."

"What is it Vee?"

"There are other humans in this house thing." 

"Ellen and your friend you can come out now." Rey turned to the stairs and Ellen and Haley slowly walked into the living room a little frightened.

"I guess you saw everything." She said softly watching them battle about where to sit. They nodded and finally settled on the empty large sofa.

"My apologies."

"I,i-t-s, its alright." Haley stuttered.

"It was my sister wasn't it?" She asked Rey.

"Yes, when she was here I read her, and I knew she was going to send some people here." Rey answered.

"I am still here." Vee announced breaking off the silence between them.

"That's an AI." Haley exclaimed her eyes at the hologram.

"Yes, she is Vee."

"Yes I am Vee, you two are real human people." Vee said.

"Nice to meet you, Vee." Ellen and Haley said in unison.

"Oh, I love being around human people." Vee said and Rey threw her a shocked look.

"You do?" She raised an eyebrow at her.

"Yes." Vee turned her attention to Rey.

"I see. I need you to examine me, see if anything is wrong." Rey said to Vee and while Vee did what she had to do.

"How can you see in the dark?" Ellen asked.

"I have night vision not the way I would see when its not dark, its like a blue ray-greenish way." Rey explained.

"Am I good Vee?"

"Yes princess."

"Maybe Vee can help you get home." Ellen suggested and Rey just glanced at her for a few seconds then focused on Vee, its not like that thought hadn't occured to her, it had. The device she had could yes open a portal and transport her where she wanted to go, but that happened on their earth and it could also send information from one place to another. 

"Vee," Rey stared at Vee for a while as a thought occured to her.

"I need you to send my mother a message, let her know that I am okay." She said to her.

"I will."

"Before you do I need to know where I went after I was at the royal garden, try and recollect that information."

"Princess." Vee called after her.

"Please," Rey begged.

"You met...uh...I don't think I know, I will try and send your mother your message." Vee said and even before Rey could say anything, the hologram had already vanished.

"Everything okay Rey?" Ellen asked Rey.

"Off." Rey said to the watch and then she sat upright.

"I don't know." She answered simply.

"I need some coffee, today has been an extremely long day and the night is just about to get longer." Ellen stood up.

"Can I bring you a cup?" She stared at Rey.

"Of coffee, whatever that is? No." Rey shook her head.

"Can I get one." Haley inquired she was more of a indoor person and yet when it came to anything to do with the kitched she failed terribly and Ellen knew that so she always choose to make her the exception one when she was around.

"Will do." Ellen said and went straight ahead where the kitchen was.

What did you get yourself into Halsey?

Haley wondered shooting her feet up on the sofa.

Rey watched her silently, she wanted to let her know that it was not in her place to care about what her sister was doing, but she couldn't. She understood Halsey was Haley's family and whether or not they were different what they were still counted in her book.

Vee, I know you were hiding something from me, you've never done that since dad gave you to me when I turned year 10. I don't understand what could make you do that.

What happened to me this morning back home? Why can't I remember anything no matter how much I try?

Rey wondered her eyes on the black watch on her wrist.

I need you to come back Vee, I need to know what happened today, I know you may have an idea of what really happened.
