Things Get Worse Over
Time
Ch. 3
The warm sun hitting our tan skin, warming
the bench that i sit on. I look across the grass until my eyes
stop at the forest.
"Why don't we escape in there?" i say to my cousin,
hoping for the answer of "we will."
"I am not sure, we haven't gotten that far Stel."
he says to me.I look at him, his marble blue eyes staring into my
eyes.
I wish this didn't happen, we were hoping my families death
would happen so we can go a step closer to our plan.
"Hey, Don't worry everything is going to be
fine"
I look away from his sincere voice and face, and look behind him
across the grass field.
"You say that, but you don't what can happen." i
say " You cant tell the future."
He laughs shaking his blonde hair. "That is indeed true, I
didn't expect any of that" he says pointing to Central
Point. "I didn't even know a change like that could
happen."
"well it did" i say upset. "We all changed....
Well most of us, atleast" I envy my cousin because he
didn't change and I did.
"I am trying Stella, I really am. Believe me" he says
to me with his face soft.
"I do believe you, i always will. I just wish i didn't
Adapt to the changes. I wish i was Roamer" I say to
him.
"You wish that, but who knows what Roamers are like, no one
has ever even said anything about a Roamer, When ever someone
does come in contact with them, do they ever come back?" He
says to me with a serious tone.
"Well. No" i say, he is right. when ever someone does
come into contact with them, they never return. It is probably
something to scare the Patrons so we don't try and
escape.
"But if we were Roamers then we wouldn't be under the
Superiors surveillance, or the Administrations rules. We would be
free."
"Stella, if you were a Roamer, your memories would be
erased. You wouldn't know how to write, talk, you
wouldn't have manners. Hell, you probably wouldn't even
know how to walk."
"But your memory wouldn't be erased, so you would come
and try and find me, and take care of me." I say trying to
make my point
He stays silent because he knows it is true, he would give up
everything just to try and find me, he would teach me everything
in order for me to survive. He already is only we are under
surveillance.
He stands up and looks down at me, his tight shirt shows his
muscles. "Ready?" he says
I follow him in another trail that leads to our arena where we
practice.
He grabs us both a sword, so he calls it, out of his collection
of guns and swords.
The swords to me look like big sharper utensil that we use for
when we eat meals.
The sword is heavy, but i got use to it. I flip in the air, and
then catch. He claps sarcasticly
"You swing first" he says.
" You know i am better when you start." i say to
him
"well then i guess you wont be good when you have to start a
fight."
With that said I strike at him with full force, of course he
dodges, then strikes at me, i dodge but not quick enough, he cuts
my arm.
We go at it with each other for a while. we didn't notice
that the sun was almost setting
"Stella!" he yells at me, pointing at the sun.
"The sun, we have to go!" we run throwing the swords in
the bushes we run to the dirt road that leads to the
gate.
We run as fast as we can. Right when the sun disappears
behind the plush green mountains, these enormous illuminating
lights go on lighting up the entire the field and even the sky.
Whenever movement is present, Guards swarm that area to see what
it is.
As we run we know it will be too late, i run faster. But i am
pushed in to the bushes. The lights then beam on making us both
blind for a second
"Shhh" Atrayu says to me. we crouch down but only as
much to where it wont make movement.
"Great, what are we going to do?" i say to him looking
around.
"Well nothing really. It looks like we are spending the
night out here."
I look down at my skirt, and see the crumbled grass beneath me
legs. I grab a small flower that was crushed. Its yellow petals
bent and ripped. I am familiar with this flower. It is called a
Daisy. We grow them, a lot, in one of the many green houses we
have.
It is quiet for a little while.
Atrayu speaks up. "Well this is perfect for training."
he says with a smile across his face.
I look at him, curious. "Wait what?" I say to him. i
think for a second "Are you cr-" i try to say but he is
already up and running through the bushes.
Without a second, i am up and running after him following his
crushed path of grass. I see Atrayu smashing his way through the
grass. I look behind me to see if i can see the Guards, but they
are no where in sight, but i can hear them.
My blonde hair in my face. i turn to look ahead, at that moment
and strong arm is pulling me into the think grass. I get pushed
down into a crouching position.
My heart pounding & so loud that i don't want even hear
it, and when a Guard appears i think that he can hear it to. He
comes in my direction in his Blue Suit with black boots, and a
head set so he can talk to who ever is on the other line. It
looks like he looks directly at me he shines his flashlight just
a little above me. I want to scream but i know i cant, i start to
panic a hand is placed over my mouth "Shh" is whispered
in my ear.
I look past the guard & i see my cousin with his finger to
his mouth, stating to be quiet.
If my cousin is over there, then
who pulled me into the grass?
I look behind me to find a unfamiliar face, his green eyes and
black hair and warming smile..
