" Hey, who do we have here?"
A voice shouted from the table.
Sia wasn't quick enough to detect who it was.
" She's with Aid"
Arlen told the table
" Her?"
That seemed to be the question round the table.
" I thought this was meant to be a dude's affair"
Someone yelled.
" Yeah, Why does Aid have to change the rules when He wants"
Another voice lamented angrily.
" Hey!!
Arlen started.
" Easy there dudes"
" I've talked to her"
" Aid didn't make any wrong decisions"
There was rumoring at the table.
It was a long table ,Sia thought .
" Trust me ,She's as good as any of us"
Arlen was telling them.
" She beat me at Minds"
He told them.
Sia thought since He was a big deal to beat him ,He would have felt a bit disgraced to divulge his defeat to the 'others'.
" I don't believe that"
A rugged voice yelled from the table.
A dude about twenty stood from the table.
He was handsome.
Sia had to admit that they were all handsome, they were graceful and tall and well built and all the nice features and little of the bad .
" I don't believe She's good enough"
The dude said facing Arlen
" Seriously?"
Sia said carefree.
The table turned to her.
" Girls domination"
Sia said quite irritated.
" Well, She's good"
Arlen was still trying to persuade them.
" I don't think She knows what this is all about"
Another was saying.
" She's not even asking a chance to prove herself"
Another was saying.
" What chance"
" Let's see how good you really are"
The dude standing was saying.
" Yeah"
Another stood from the table.
" I seriously don't want to fight anyone"
She said and sat at a table with crossedlegs.
She took a drink.
" Get serious"
The first dude pulled her up.
He had immense strength.
She immediately thought of his superpower as Super strength and this was super, super strength ,even though She felt He had handled her normally without the super power.
It was fair play.
She slided and went into a fighting stance, her left leg fully stretched, the other leg supported the left and her hands were tightened into a fist.
" I Seriously don't want to fight"
" I guess you have no choice"
" I do have a choice"
She said loosening her fists.
He was coming at her and it was obvious He was going to throw a kick.
Sia levelled low and slided to the other side.
He came at her again and She held his arm, using his rigid strength to turn herself about.
He got confused because her move was fast, He turned to see her quite a distance.
No one noticed Aidan at the entrance of the room, He was wearing white so He blended with the walls.
The walls at this part of NOWHERE was moving water in sprinkles.
" Hey, Rye take her out"
Someone yelled.
Sia made sure to take note of who said so.
His face was something she would definitely remember.
It wasn't bad ,It was actually cute but quite unique.
She got back to the fight.
That She was avoiding.
Somehow Her thinking made her lag a little when She regained herself, He had gotten hold of her arm but somehow she managed to slip away and she kept feeling that He wasn't applying his full strength.
" Stop!
She did not realise when She had said those words.
Rye stopped midair in action.
" I really do not want to fight"
She told them.
" Or you're just scared"
The same dude said before.
She gave him a scorn.
She felt a pain on her knee.
She fell to her knees
" Ahh"
She exclaimed.
" Let the fight begin"
Someone proclaimed.
" Come on"
Rye said, his hands balled into a fist.
Sia tried to stand.
She couldn't.
She looked helplessly at Rye.
He smirked and rushed at her making a dwerve turn in the air to get a perfect kick on her neck.
He missed.
Or basically, She dogged.
She pulled the leg that still functioned and tried to move.
Rye dragged her but she used her other leg to hit in the face several times.
Rye backed off and held on to his face.
Sia didn't know how but She kicked-up on one knee.
She didn't really feel the pain at first but then she did and then she roared in pain.
She held on to the knee.
Rye was definitely not going to give up the fight.
Was it one of their policies or did He just hate her?
She knew whatever move she was going to make ,She musn't go back to the floor.
" She's feeling pain"
Someone whispered to another.
Somehow Sia heard even though She was quite far.
She looked at Rye.
Rye was going to double kick her but on instinct She held on to his feet and shoved him backwards.
Again ,she felt as though He was not applying his full potentials.
This time ,there was a prolonged fight, there was smashing on walls, Arm spins and dragging through the dinner table.
Sia tried as much as possible to prevent Rye from hurting her left knee again.
She went head over on the table, got out a Bash.
She held on to it as She knelt on one knee and bent low with one arm fully stretched and the other holding the Bash.
It was like the Avengers pose.
She went over with the bash and she fought with it .
Rye tried to get hold of the Bash but She twirled it above him and slashed it on his back ,She used the stick as a support, ran over and double kicked him on the Ear, she came over and climbed the back of his neck .
She held him with all her strength and pulled him over while trying to gain balance on the ground with her hands.
Rye landed hard.
" Oops"
She said but She had badly damaged her left knee.
She couldn't stand up.
She tried but Rye got up first.
Why wasn't anyone stopping them.
Well not like she was expecting them to come to her rescue but they stood there and watched like puppets.
Frozen puppets.
Rye cleaned blood from his mouth.
" Really?"
Rye said and smirked.
" You can't get up"
He asked mockingly.
Sia tried.
He had the Bash with him and He kept shoving it and following her pace as She tried to move away from him.
Was He gonna kill her?
Were they going to let him kill her?
Were they going to watch being murdered ?
Where was Aidan?
He seemed to be the only one who didn't want to harm her.
She was determined not to beg.
She won't lay low even in the face of death.
Rye tried to use the Bash on her but She managed to get it out of his hands.
Again She felt He was not maximizing his full potentials.
" Don't worry ,I can use my hands"
Sia had had enough of this.
She felt herself rising slowly in the air and She was being held in the neck.
She looked at him in the face and she was ready to face whatever.
She felt disgusted.
Hwy would He want to kill her for no reason?.
She had had enough of this .
He didn't want to care anymore.
Her life was precious, not exactly to her but to Jay and Leah and Aimèè and Kira.
She closed he eyes.
" Hey, she's meditating"
All she saw was fire, ravaging devouring for eready to devour anything.
She was lost in cinder and hot larva.
" Shit!
She heard a curse and a shriek cry.
" What the hell"
She felt herself landing hard on the floor.
" Ouch!
She exclaimed and that was when she opened her eyes.
There was fire.
She knew instantly that It was her creation.
" Turn on the rain"
Someone had shouted.
That was when she remembered She could not walk .
She had created fire.
She had no remedy.
She was going to destroy lives
The explosion was so massive, she felt as if it was the peak of her powers
But She It was not.
It was just like the quantum energy level.
The more you kept using.
The higher you could go and more potentials gained.
There was no actual 'peak' for superpowers.
She was scared.
She felt the heat She created bustle through her.
He saw someone in the fire.
It was Aidan.
" Turn on Sprinkle"
He said to the strap.
There was a heavy downpour.
" Thanks Peal"
She knew It was a mind reader.
She was wet.
She tried to stand as Aidan watched.
" I'll carry you"
He told her and lifted her up.
They disappeared into her room.
" Here rest"
He said gently dropping her on the bed.
" I'm sorry"
To that He said nothing.
He took out an Immerse pills.
" Here the pain on your knee goes away"
He said .
She took it from his hands placing it on her Immerse spot and watching it being absorbed into her body.
" I have questions"
She told him as She saw He was about to leave.
" I don't have answers"
He told her.
She felt He was a bit cold or He was hiding something from her.
Not that she expected him to trust her enough to tell her things.
" Why did you leave the others in the fire to save me"
she asked as He turned to leave.
" They can save themselves"
He said indifferent.
" What if?.....
She was going to ask a question but he interrupted her.
" Wanna see?"
He asked and without response.
A beamer came on.
The Air touch screen operated from his strap.
The scene showed the dinner room, there was the floating dinner table.
She remembered dinner was cancelled, it must've been a real deal for Arlen .He was really looking up to dinner.
" where are they?
Sia asked.
He took her on a trip round the house, particular about the boys and their respective rooms.
It was like as If nothing had happened.
Some were eating snacks and taking mealers and Immerse food and some were clustered in groups chatting away happily.
She saw Rye.
He was cleaning away the blood from his face.
He broke the pod in two with a tiny smash.
She was right all along.
He had super strength.
He was angry.
" Don't worry, He'll come over it"
" He tried to kill me"
She said Apprenhensively .
" He's bipolar"
He told her indifferent.
" What if He had killed me"
" He couldn't"
Aidan still said indifferent.
She didn't like this attitude.
" What does that mean".
"See this "
He spred his hands on the air as if to zoom the pic and Sia saw something like a chip on Rye's neck.
" What's that"
"Whenever Rye gets out of control and is about to 'kill' ,the chip disables his body parts and He becomes Numb"
" Well ,when does this chip decide to activate this ' Numb' Ideology"
She asked angrily.
" I almost got squashed"
" When his brain sends signals that are overload"
" It means He's no longer in control, excess production of Norepinephrine and serotonin"
He told her.
She nodded.
She wasn't really supposed to get all of what he was saying anyways.
" Get some sleep"
" Already divulged more info than usual"
Without waiting for a goodbye or something else.
He simply vanished.
" Oh well"
Sia exclaimed bouncing heavily on the bed.
That was when She realised She had been standing the whole time and her knee pain was completely gone.
The bed had been floating but had leaped to catch her and floated again.
Sia crossed a leg over the other and put her hand behind her head.
" What it worth for proving ma self worthy"
She had almost died.
Though Aidan said otherwise.
Then she remembered she had seen him during the fight.
When she had bent over the table and she was upside down in motion, She had seen him.
She closed her eyes.
Yes ,it was Aidan besides the entrance, arms crossed over his chest, a feet over the other and his body frame leaning against the entrance.
Why did he help her at the dying minute?
Why didn't He do anything when He saw everything happen.
She had many questions and It would take long before She would get answers
