Chapter 10 - Chapter 5.5

As Clara tried to get up to use the bathroom she felt dizzy she fell to one knee. As this strange warmth began to encompass her body she screamed out loud that's when her partner came bursting through the hospital room door as she knelt down to Clara's eye level she asked if she was alright as she cried out for a nurse and doctor to come to her room.

Clara gripped her partner's shoulder and brought her in close. "Vega, no don't call them. If they found out I'm a Homo-Elite they'll send the H.E.D.S. after me and go after you for helping me." "So what would you have me do Commander?" "Just get me to the boarder and I'll contact my sister to get me to where I'll be safe." That's when there was knock on the door and Vega helped Clara back into the hospital bed as someone with long white hair and in some scale like armor that was a scarlet Red and evening setting sun sky purple and a giant sword magnetized to their back as a dragon like oni face mask covered their lower face.

Vega reached for her gun and told them to put their hands up in the air slowly as she slowly got closer to handcuff the mysterious figure. "Please, I don't want to hurt you I just need to speak with the Police Commander. "Not a chance and how did you get past our security?" "Vega stand down." "But Commander..." "I will not ask again." "Ye-Yes ma'am." Vega holstered her gun. "Vega can you please go check on the others outside and make sure they're alright while I talk to our mysterious visitor alone." "Yes Commander."

Vega began to walk out the room but gave the side eye to the mysterious figure and bumped into their shoulder she closed the door. "Talk about a attack dog and petty at that. She's hella pretty though and got the yams. You sure know how to pick'em sis." "Cut the bullshit pleasantries already and tell me where you've been the last 15 years. Leola." "Nice to meet you too sis. How long has it been since we last talked?" "Not since Ashen and Moms' funerals."

"After their passing I couldn't stay here. I was already broken and felt lost after Ashen death then moms death just shattered my entire reality. I was left with a 16 year old little sister whom needed but I just couldn't bring myself to pretend to be happy and strong I wasn't ready for the responsibility nor the weight of taking care of myself and you. I ain't feel as if it was fair to ya or me to try to be something I wasn't mentally capable of doin' ya know? So I ran away and I was later found and taken in by my King and his Royal guards who gave me something I haven't had inna long time... My sense of self."

"So you never thought about me or how I felt? What I wanted or needed?!" "There's not a year that went by that I haven't thought about ya sis. But at the end of the day I ain't feel as if I was worthy of coming back especially putting you through hell. I ain't expecting you to forgive me nor accept me back in your life I just thought I owed you at least an explanation for being such a shitty sister." As Leola finished a tear began to drop from her cheek as she wiped her face." "You're crying." "No, I was just staring at the setting sun for too long and eyes started to burn." Clara walked up to her sister and hugged her from her behind as she broke down from crying. Leola stiffened by the sudden embrace as it surprised her and but she finally loosened and welcome the embrace as they both broke down in tears crying. "I'm so sorry Clara."
