The harsh weather passed and changed to a bright sunny weather.
12 got changed first and followed by 10. The change of clothes were just the same as what it was earlier, it wasn't just soaked in rain.
After all that Benedict sat down at the table with 10 and 12 who doesn't seem to be interacting like they always do.
"Did something happen between you two?" Benedict asked.
"Nothing" 12 said.
10 was just about to open his mouth to say it to Benedict but 12 said it first and surprised 10, because usually when he gets upset 12 tries her best to convince 10 she's sorry no matter the reason. 10 felt heavy worrying 12 might not care for him anymore.
"Listen, the both of you will be escorted somewhere we can't tell you because you might not accept it so we won't" Benedict explained.
"That's not fair" 10 said.
"But you have no other choice but to follow what we say" Benedict said.
"What makes you think we can't?"
"10 no matter how smart you are you don't even know anything outside of this island so right now you can say we're above your knowledge sure you know history but you don't know anything about it" Benedict explained.
"Tsk" 10 said as he gritted his teeth.
"There are just some things you have to remember" Benedict said.
"1. Never tell anyone you came from here
2. 12 never show your strength to them
3. 10 don't be telling everyone all you know
because that will cause suspicion
4. If you're hurt act like it and don't go twisting
your bones when it's broken
5. Avoid fighting and bringing attention to the two
of you" Benedict explained.
"Why do we have to avoid attention? And what's the reason on why we have to go there?" 12 asked.
"We just want to catch rats who thinks they're the best" Benedict said with his tone of voice suddenly turning dark and hostile.
"Rats?" 10 asked.
"Just remember you two are the best of the best when the time comes don't worry we'll be there" Benedict added going back to his soft voice.
"I thought we were gonna live free?" 12 said with a worried tone.
"You are, we just gave you things to avoid for the best because none of know anything about what's there" Benedict said.
"But if you think it's best for the situation to take action then do it but be careful you won't know wether you can trust people or not" Benedict said.
After a few seconds of silence with 10 and 12 looking worried and nervous. A sound of a landing helicopter was heard.
"It's here come out you two" Benedict said as he instructed the two to go outside.
10 covered his eyes from the sun as he looked up to the landing helicopter.
"Hurry get in you two" Brian said calling over 10 and 12.
"Right now?!" 10 and 12 said in unison.
"Yes right now hurry! You'll be late!" Brian shouted at them.
10 and 12 ran to the helicopter.
The pilot kept on looking at the two who was just sitting in the side holding the doors and looking down to the blue water without any protection.
"Hey you two sit down!" The pilot said with worry.
10 and 12 didn't seem to hear any of it and just continued to look down at the beautiful sight.
10 looked at 12 who was smiling as she gazed at the surroundings. For 10 it was a breathtaking moment. Her deep black eyes shined as she continued appreciating the surroundings, her hair messed up due to the rough air, and her pale skin shining as the sun hit. His heart skipped a beat but suddenly remembered he can't talk to her.
10 solemnly gazed at the sea thinking on wether to talk to 12. 10 always had strong pride and ego and wouldn't get worked up by anyone, but it was the first time 12 didn't go on and initiate to say sorry.
10 looked again at 12 and gritted his teeth and laid his head onto 12's shoulder. 12 looked at the boy resting on her shoulders who had solemn eyes that was at the brink of crying.
"Im sorry 12" 10 said.
"It's okay" 12 replied.
10 continued to rest his head onto 12's shoulders stealing glances as 12 continues to stare meaningfully at the scenery.
Meanwhile the pilot couldn't focus because 10 and 12 now had their feet dangling from the helicopter. Scared they might fall and die.
Few minutes has passed and the large building was already seen from the distance. 10 and 12 scooted their head to see the large building causing the pilot to have a short panic.
As soon as the helicopter landed both 12 and 10 jumped down and looked around. They then looked at the large building in front of them there was no one around but just an old man wearing a black suit and glasses looking at 10 and 12.
10 and 12 ran up to the man smiling and waving his hand to them.
"Please follow me" the man said and escorted the two inside the large building.
The pilot finally got out from the helicopter and ran to the back checking for the boy and girl but in his surprise the two were already walking into the building. He checked the equipment and it was untouched, suddenly he felt a chill up on his spine when he saw the side and bottom part of the plane marked with hand prints.
"I think i should quit my job after this"
