where two agents stood waiting to return her to, I’m guessing the lab.

“Wait! What! No! You said you were going to take it back.” She shrieked stepping away from the agents.

“And ruin all my valuable research. I don’t think so. After what you just told me I can see you will be a very valuable asset to my research.”

“No, stop!”

“Get her! And bring her to the fourth floor. I can see she will need much more extensive care and supervision.”

“Ahh!”

The two agents went after her. One had stretchy arms and tried to grab her. The other let out sound kind of sonic boom. Maya ran out of the way and jumped onto the headmasters’ desk attempting to flee. The agent with the stretchy arms were moving them past the desk to get Maya and it freaked me out so much that I kicked it away from me and screamed.

“Who’s there?” Shouted the headmaster.

“ZANE RUN!”

Zane, Maya and I all busted out of the headmasters’ office like it was on fire or something. The three of us ran down the hall like we were in a 100m sprint. I clicked the elevator but Maya shouted to use the stairs. We ran down the right stairwell and kept going but we weren’t that fast because the two agents were right on our tails.

“Ah help!” Maya was captured by the stretchy arm guy.

“Amethyst wait! That girls been captured.” Zane shouted.

“Zane we can’t, we have to get out of – ah!” I was hit with something. It felt like a big gust of wind just smack me with a really loud sonic sound. I know that sounds weird but it’s the best way I can describe it.

“Amethyst!”

“Zane.” I moaned.

The girl with the sonic boom ability grabbed me but was quickly able to release me because Zane broke a pipe from the stairwell and threw it at her. I was about to grab Zane hand and run but I decided to help out that girl because she was screaming so loudly.

“Let me go!” She screamed again.

“Hold on girl. We’re coming to help you.” I ran back up one flight of stairs and attempted to use my powers to levitate the boy but I was stumped, it didn’t work.

“I command you to LET….ME….GO!”

“I don’t think so. You know you’re actually quite sexy and you smell nice. I think I will….I will let you go.” Stretchy arm guy said.

I couldn’t believe it but he actually did it. He actually let her go. Why? Is that her ability?

Sonic boom girl blew Zane and me up against the wall and this time it really really hurt.

“What do you think you’re doing Jake? Why did you - ”

“Shut up!” Maya interrupted her.

“Who do you think you’re talking to bi - ”

“Don’t you want to tell your buddy Jake how much you love him and how much you want to be with him.” Maya continued just in the nick of time.

“What! You little, grrr.” Sonic boom girl march toward Maya and was about to let out another powerful attack but Maya stop her.

“You love him, don’t you and you want to kiss him right now.” Maya added.

The girls’ evil expression turned into a pure one all of a sudden. “Your right I do. Jake I love you. I have always loved you and I want to show you how much I do.” She ran to him.

Zane and I just stared puzzled.

“What are you two waiting for, let’s go. I can’t control it for very long.”

I noticed that she was already down to the next flight of stairs. So Zane and I dusted out selves off and followed her. She knew exactly were to go. And when we ran into other agents she just used her mind controlling ability to tell them to let us pass and they did. We managed to get through to the back door but there were some more agents there waiting for us. And not just any agents, Senya and Christopher.


Chapter 12: S.W.I.F.T’s Elite!

“Amethyst!”

“Christopher!”

We looked at each other stunned and at a lost for anymore words.

“So you know each other?” Senya broke the silence.

“What! What are you doing here? What is she doing here Senya?” Christopher first spoke to me then spoke to Senya. I could feel that he was in shock; and his voice sounded like he was afraid and angry.

“She’s the intruder Headmaster warned us about. She’s the one with the Chrysalis in her possession.” Senya answered.

“Amethyst? Why? Why is she even involved in this Senya?” His voice became angrier and less scared. “He promised me. He promised me that no one.” He paused in mid-sentence glaring at Senya then at the ground.

For a brief moment I could have sworn Senya had a momentary expression of fear painted across her face when Christopher was practically yelling at her. But within a blink of an eye she came back to her normal ruthless self.

“Chris, calm down and let’s do our job, headmaster wants - ”

“I told you NOT to call me Chris. We are not friends.”

Senya stood at a standstill appalled at his outburst. I could tell she wanted to hit him.

“Whatever. If you’re not going to get them I will and I’ll take all the credit.” She snapped her attention right back at to us and we all flinched.

“Ok kiddies. Game’s over. You’re coming with me.” She marched towards us.

“Let’s go you two, RUN!” Maya shouted to us. She was already escaping while Christopher and Senya were arguing.

Zane and I followed her but Senya and Christopher were right behind us.

“I don’t think so!” Senya used her telekinesis ability, the same as mine to lift herself right in front of us. It looked almost as if she flew.

The 3 of us shirked in fear.

“Senya please let us go. Headmaster is the bad guy. He’s - ”

“Zane! If you come back now, we can save you. Headmaster will forgive you taking the Chrysalis and releasing his agents.” Maya interrupted.

“You mean experiments.” Maya added. “That man is a liar. He tricked me as he is tricking you. It is only a matter of time before you see. He’s using both of you, don’t you see it. We’re nothing but an experimental gain for him. He ruined my life and it’s only a matter of time before he ruins yours. That man is - ”

“BE QUIET! Now you have two options, you could either come with us willingly and maybe, just maybe you’ll be spared further experimentation or we can drag your asses back into the confines of the S.W.I.F.T. walls and send you directly to level 4. And I’m sure you all heard about the stories of level 4.” I was utterly stunned at the language Christopher was using. I’ve never seen him like this, well at least not in a long time, not since he and Reenee started to go out.

“Christopher, wait! What’s gonna on with you. Why are you here; and why are you doing this? I’m your friend remember. Remember me; I’m the best friend of your girlfriend. When you left Reenee was heartbroken, she blamed herself and thought she messed up somehow. She wouldn’t come out of her room for weeks and - ”

“Yeah yeah yeah. No one cares about your sob story. Can we just take these guys in already or do you want to still take your trip down memory lane Christopher.” Maya was relentless on trying to bring us back into the Headmaster’s control.

“Wait wait wait! Can’t we talk about this first, Senya, its Senya right? Look, look maybe you should just calm down and let us go. We’ll be out of your hair forever if you just - ” Maya began.

“Aei-yah! That tricks not going to work.” Senya attacked but missed us and instead punched the ground and created a small crack. We ran further behind the building since Senya and Christopher cornered us horizontally.

All of the sudden the ground began to shake like an earthquake, not that I know what an earthquake feels like, but I’m sure it’s pretty close to this. The small rocks and fallen leaves were bouncing off the ground like they were basketballs. None of us could hold our balance anymore, we were about to fall over on our butts when all of a sudden it just stopped.

Zane fell over while Maya and I found a way to hold our ground.

“What was that?” I asked shocked. “Was that an earthquake or what?”

“I don’t think so. But I think I know who caused that eruption.” Maya answered.

“Who?”

“That guy you called Christopher.”

“What, how could he have caused – ahh! What’s going on? Where did this sand come from?”

The three of us were suddenly in a pile of quicksand. I don’t know how, maybe when we ran away we didn’t notice; but if so, why is there a random pile of quicksand in the city behind this building.

“Ah ah no I’m sinking. Amethyst help!” Zane screamed to me.

“Uh ah I can’t I’m stuck too.”

“Stop it you two. You have to fight it. This is only an illusion.” Maya tried to inform us while struggling herself to pretend it’s not real.

“An illusion?” Zane and I both gasped at the same time.

“Haven’t you heard of the rumors. There’s a guy that is part of the elite S.W.I.F.T. agents and his ability is to create realistic illusions. I think that guy is him.” Maya yelled at us trying to get Zane and me to understand.

Christopher. So Christopher is one of them. He’s one their lab rats. But I don’t get it, why? How?

I struggled some more trying to get out of the quicksand but Maya just warned me to stay still. I wanted to believe her but the quicksand felt so real that I couldn’t stop.

“Alright you win. Just please let us out of this.” I tried to reason with them. I looked directly into Christopher eyes trying to make some kind of connection. Trying to make him remember that I was his friend.

He didn’t even seem to care that much. But then I noticed something, a slight hand gesture. He was putting up the sign. The hand sign that Reenee, Melinda and I showed our boyfriends the night at Lions house party. It was supposed to have been like a secret code between us that meant no matter what happens we got each other’s back.

The sign was the pointer finger and the middle finger crossed while the thumb lies on top of the pinker and the last finger bent. I know it sounds silly but the meaning was deep. The two crossed fingers meant that we’re close and best friends. The bent finger and the crossed ones looked like a backwards 4 when you held your hand upside down. And the last two fingers are in the shape of a circle meaning the circle of life. So when it is put all together it meant, Best Friends 4 Life. Yeah, real corny, but it felt special at the time. And right now Christopher was putting it up which meant not only does he remember but he also had a plan.
