Chapter 6

Eight

I open my eyes. And heck, what do I see—the traitorous bastard who killed me looking at me like… Urggh! He was worried. There, I said it. He was actually worried. Ha! Like I didn't know he was faking. I sit up and glare at him.

"You…" I leave other insults otherwise unsaid.

Five gulps. He hands me a chart. I grab it. Well, it looks a little more like a map. "What is that?" I ask him.

"I know you need to get out of here… I…" the poor bastard, he's actually freaking out. I glance at him. "That's the map, you probably want to escape… Ermm...this… would probably help…" I am at a loss for words.

"You killed me." I arch an eyebrow at him. "If I wasn't mistaken, you were interested in the genocide of the Loric race."

He shifts his weight from one leg to another. I look him in the eye. There seems to be something different about those eyes. Well, one of them is mechanical. You can see that. But it does appear that he can still see out of both. The look in his eyes are definitely different. It seems that there is less malice in them, and strangely, more doubt. Doubt. I know. Doubt. Yep.

"You're going to have to stay with Ella for now." He hangs his head. "I don't have an extra room where you won't be caught."

"Where is Ella?" I feel myself rising to my feet and snarling.

"She has a room here on Level 07. Please, trust me. She isn't harmed. For all I know she's watching carton network now."

"?!" I am shell shocked.

Five grumbles a little. "C'mon, you'll have to teleport yourself. There are like, security cameras in the lift but not on this floor. C'mon…"

I sigh and teleport away. Five says he'll take the lift.

I say this. Ella's room is pretty cool. And she was actually watching cartoon network, she glimpses me and quickly turns down her shades. Like there are no iron bars and dingy sheets, only a glass wall. Ella, after turning down the shades, leaps into my arms. I open my arms wide and grin. This place is also pretty good. Just like Five said. Cool. Ella watches tv with me for a bit and takes me to the toilet and shows me a secret hiding place that's under the Jacuzzi. Ella tells me to teleport in there whenever she hears someone coming, cause apparently she has developed enhanced hearing. Cool.

I tell Ella everything Five told me and instead of being shocked, she just tips her head like she was expecting it.
