Chapter 2- Trust


(Jesse's P.O.V.)

We went inside the building, I shivered it was cold inside. It was a big room full of random things I didn't care about. "I'll be right back" Olivia then ran off down one of the hallways. "So, Jesse where are you from?" Lukas asked while going over to sit down on the steps that led up to a stage of sorts.

I followed and sat down a little further away from him "Oh... around" I replied nervously. "What town?" Petra asked with narrowed eyes "I-I don't like to talk about it" I mumbled feeling pressured by her threatening brown eyes. Before Petra could say anymore Olivia came back with a black shirt, brown pants and green suspenders in her arms.

"So I've been developing this clothing where it feels and looks like normal clothes but its actually armor" she explained "this is just the prototype though" she gave the clothes to me and smiled "bathroom is down that hallway and second door on the right" Olivia pointed to the hallway, I nodded in thanks and went down the hallway.

"I don't trust him" I heard a voice say as I went into the bathroom. I sighed, sometimes I hated my heightened senses. "Yeah you say that about everyone we meet" another voice replied "I don't know what it is, but something's.... off about him" a different voice spoke "just because he shows up out of know where in ragged clothes, probably socially awkward, and won't give out information just what town he's from doesn't mean.... wait I see your point now" the second voice listed. "But still, at least give him a chance" the second voice finished.

I had finished changing a while ago, I decided to finally leave the bathroom and walk back to where they were. I stood by the end of the hallway, hands in pockets I spoke "Should I go? Or?" I shrugged not knowing what to say. "If you leave where will you go? Just curious" Olivia asked "I don't really know, I might stick around town or something" I wasn't sure what else I could do.

"You could stay with us" Olivia spoke, then added "I also need to test those clothes" she smiled. Out of the corner of my eyes I saw Petra roll her eyes and cross her arms.

~Elsewhere in 3rd Person~

A short man by a computer turned around in his chair "Sir! I have located the boy" he called. A taller man with black hair and cold ice blue eyes walked in "Where?" He asked while strutting over to the short man.

"Here" the smaller man pointed at a red dot on the screen "Good, he finally reached a town" the blue eyed man smirked "go get the Changer" he commanded. The short man nodded and scurried off down one of the brick hallways.

The taller man however, went down a different hallway. He stopped. He opened an iron door on the right and walked into a room. It would have been a big room if it didn't have big metal cages stacked up to the stone roof. So it was more of a hallway with metal bars for walls.

Inside the cages were people. They wore white robes and black collars. Each collar had two letters a dash then a number on it, like a tag. The man reached the end of the hallway and faced the cage on the left side.

"Hello JE-12" The man spoke. A boy about 17 looked up at him. One eye was a dark green while the other was bright purple. He had fiery red hair, he had a stone cold look on his face. He stood up quickly from the ground and faced the man. "What do you need Mr. Thornheart?" He asked the man on the other side of the cage.

"I have a mission for you" Mr. Thornheart replied.
