Melissa sat alone in a locked room. 'Why me?' She thought.
"Damn, where are we now?!" Kamio said. "I believe we are near the living quarters." Sakiro said. "It's strange that there is no security around, especially here of all places."
'I want to go home.' Melissa thought. "I miss mama." She said.
-One year ago-
"Mama!" A young girl yelled in fear. An older woman, with long dark maroon hair, stepped out from a house to see what the noise was about. "What is it, Melissa."
The little girl ran to the woman and hid behind her. "Big brother's being mean." She said.
A slightly older boy, that also had dark maroon hair, walked up, "Come on Melissa, it's just some fun." He said with a smug face.
The mother grabbed his wrist, "Stevie! How many times do I have to tell you to be nice to your sister?!" She asked, angry.
"I get it. I get it." Stevie said.
That night they ate dinner in peace until, "Hey mom, Melissa was using her ability again." Stevie said.
The mother dropped her fork, stood up from the table and walked over to Melissa; she put her hands on the girls shoulders, "Nobody saw you right?!" She asked, worried.
"N-n-no, it was just me and Stevie." Melissa told her.
"Ah." The mother sighed. "Good, but you know you're not supposed to use it."
Tears threatened to pour from Melissa's eyes, "I-I-I-I'm s-s-sorry." Melissa said.
Her mother hugged her tightly, "it's ok, just don't do it again."
-Present-
"Damn, where are we?" Sakiro asked.
He and Kamio continued through the halls. "Hey, let me down," Kamio told him.
Sakiro let him get down. "Are you ok?" Sakiro asked him.
Kamio was about to answer when he heard someone sniffling from further down the hall. "Did you hear that?" Kamio asked.
Sakiro looked at him. "Hear what?" Kamio started down the hall towards the noise.
"Excuse me is someone here?" Kamio asked.
He heard the sniffling again through a door to his left. He walked up to the door and knocked. "Ahh." He heard what sounded like a young girl gasp inside the room.
He tried to open the door but it was locked. "Go away." The young girl said.
"So this girl is what you heard?" Sakiro asked.
"Yeah, I think. Excuse me, little girl are you ok?" The girl did not reply to Kamio's question.
"Step aside," Sakiro said.
Kamio moved away from the door. Sakiro grabbed the doorknob and tore it off. Sakiro put his hand where the knob used to be and opened the door. Melissa glared at the two of them. "Go away." She told them.
"Why?" Kamio asked her.
"What do you even want?" Melissa asked them, annoyed.
"I'm Kamio, what's your name?" Kamio asked.
He crouched down on one knee in front of her. "Melissa." She said, hesitantly.
"Okay, well Melissa, don't worry we can get you out of here," Kamio said.
"What?" Melissa asked shocked.
