Chapter 30 - The Number Five volume thirty

We got closer to the exit, 'long time no see, Five we need to talk!'. I took a long look at the girl, that's when it hit me that this woman is the person who had saved me. I continued to walk a slight tug and held me back, Elizabeth asked my savior." Do you know Marcus?, and do you want to come over to our house?', Fifty-seven glanced at me then at Elizabeth. "Sure', the walk back to Steve's house was a thrilling ride. We finally made it back to the house, the smell of spaghetti was leaking under the door. We entered the home and placed our shoes inside the shoe rack, Steve's mother came around the corner with dinner plates in her hand. " Hey sweaty who is this?', Elizabeth spoke for me " this is Marcus's friend". Our places themselves at the table fifty-seven sat right beside me, the mother brought out the food and placed it in the middle of the table. Steve's mom sat at the table,"well what is your name dear?' she smiled back at Steve's mother 'my name is Sophie". She quickly grabbed her fork and started eating the food,there was a decent amount of food on her plate. Everyone helped themselves We started to eat I'm the only one who eats with his hands, the look on fifty-seven's face was out of acceptance. After the meal, mother went into the kitchen to wash the dishes, Elizabeth dashed out of their saying." Crap I forgot about Finals!', fifty-seven slowly slid her chair back and walked over to the couch where I also slept on. She put both arms on the back of the couch,releasing a sigh."Looks like you've found people who have accepted this version of you", I made my way to the place where Fifty-seven is. A lot of questions were rushing to my head like, how long have you been here?, how are the others?, was I the first person you've met from the past?. But the only response I thought was approved was "why are you here?, I put my body on the couch with her, her mouth open but it took a couple of seconds for her to speak."Um I really need to tell you something, when I first got here I was told ported. At some kind of military camp, they were talking about some kid who had the name of Five. They were going to use him to win over the countries.". My foot started rapidly taped on the floor, shaking my head out of disbelief. My voice was shattered "why me!, I have done nothing wrong. I have no special talents,powers.I'm just some failed rat". She slides down the couch putting her hands on mine, her hands are warm. "Five I know what you're feeling, but there is more apparently they sent people to come and find you. That was a week ago". I started to remember that there was a long dark figure at the arcade,also at the school. " I just want to stay here with these nice people, this was the place where they didn't have to fake a smile, or talked behind my back calling me an abomination". I grabbed her arm tugging her alongside me, slugging the bathroom door open. After taking my shirt off, she covered her eyes. I've noticed that I was a monster with an acid mark that was showing because the sweat had melted off the makeup. Several circle marks were all around my stomach, that is when they were force feeding me. Fifty-seven was sick to her stomach by the sight of my body" I never knew it was this bad,I knew it was wasn't good but this is on the same level as genocide!. Why did you keep going?!,hell even ask for help, or even fight back!'. While looking in the mirror seeing my own reflection " it wouldn't have made a difference, if I would have fought back I was giving them exactly what they wanted. Also I didn't have the courage or the strength to fight back".I slowly put my shirt back on shaking my head out of anger, the voices became louder. " You left us!, it was your fault!. You should kill yourself for the crimes you have committed, what a kind of hero abandons the people who needed his help the most to go and live for his best life!'. I put my hands over my ears to try and silence the voices, I looked back in the mirror watching Darkouls doing the same thing. I asked Sophie " what can I do to stop them?, because I can't fight'. We both hear a knock on the front door, I was hoping it was Steve.Sophie bolted to the sound of knocking on the door, the way she moved it made me believe that her story was real. She put her face into the peephole, a giant sigh was released." Oh it's just ugly guy". She opened the door Steve walked in, his expression was thrilled and shocked as to who is in front of him. He flocked his way to the couch " so who is a lovely lady?, let me guess she is your woman'. I just nodded my head out of disbelief out of the statement he made"Did mom make dinner already?' I pointed into the direction of where I saw Steve's mom last time. He made his way towards the kitchen stops at the entrance, "oh there are some people on the way over here, wearing some Fancy clothes". Sophie put her hand on her forehand " how fucking stupid can this guy be!?' before Sophie crossed halfway through the living room, the front door was kicked in. Sophie quickly grabbed a vase, also a remote control two men came after the door fell onto the floor. The vase was shattered against one of the men's face broken pieces of vase was lodged into his eyes and nose, the remote was landed square against the other one funny bone. We quickly made it into the bathroom, me and fifty-seven crunched up into the bathroom. Darkouls voice started " I'm not going back!, never again going through trails,experiments. Just for someones personal gain, hey Kid I know you don't want to go back to how things were!". I started to agree with Darkouls, the same Numbers that appeared before that changed Steve's father's life. Was spreading up my whole left body flashbacks of my past filled my head, Fifty-seven was stunned at the event that was unfolding before her. That same dark cloud that transferred me, nothing but Darkness surrounded me. I could see that I was not alone, my mind was filled with ideas about Steve,his mother,Father and Elizabeth wondering if they were going to be safe without me. Trees started to come to the light, the amount of the color green was coming straight out of a folktale. This time I didn't fall to the ground, I was placed gently. I made my way through the woods of the mysterious place, at the end of the woods there was an opening. I approached the opening leading to a walkway leading to a glamorous town, the amount of people on the walkway was alerting me. I followed the line to the entrance of this town, I approached a sign in the middle of the path saying "welcome to Daragain". I entered Daragain making my way through this town, noticing that they were different species and races, making my way through the town a statue in the middle of it caught my eye making me stop by curiosity to see who this statue is for. The statue was a man holding two small daggers,c cuts all over his body. At the bottom it read " in remembrance of Adamsin", Darkouls spoke for the time in this new town but his voice sounded astonished." Oh my God!, it's good to see you again,Friend', I was very confused on what Darkouls was speaking of. What I knew was that Daragain was going to be a place that a new adventure for me and Darkouls was going to begin, also a new bond was going to be forged at Daragain.
