Rescuing Nova

part 1- the first communication

Luke's pov:

I was minding my own business, reading an astrology book when I sensed it. My head rung. I stumbled and dropped the book at my feet.

"You alright Lukey boy?" Clyde asked.

"Y-Yeh. Did you not hear that ringing?" I asked, my palm resting on my forehead.

Clyde looked puzzled. "No, mate. Maybe you've just been over working that big brain of yours."

"Luke..."

"Seriously, someone just said my name. This isn't funny, Clyde."

"Its not Clyde, Luke. Please, The Bane they -"

Another ringing in my head, louder and stronger this time. I dropped to the ground and groaned in pain.

"Luke!" Clyde and Mum yelled.

It took a while, but the ringing eventually stopped. I stood myself up and analysed what just happened... The Bane...

"Mum, I-I think The Bane have done it again. I heard her, she's scared. We need to find her."

Mum looked as confused as Clyde. "Luke, are you absolutely sure?" She asked.

I nodded. "Positive. I've never been more sure of anything. I-I can sense her, she needs me Mum."

Mum rushed over to Mr.Smith and asked him to scan for alien activity over the city. Sure enough, he found Bane activity again.

"But that can't be? Its been six years since she was here..." Mum sighed.

I rested my hand on her shoulder, "You know as well as I do that Mrs.Wormwood will never stop." Mum sighed. "Luke, I want you to stay here. It'll be far too dangerous for you to go in there. Clyde, with me."

"No! Mum, she needs me. I can track her down without calling for her. She connected with me through telepathy. You and Clyde can distract them while I find her. Please..."

"No, Luke. If she takes you from me I'll never get over that. I can't risk loosing you as well as the girl."

"What if Luke used this ear device thing and told me where to find her? Surely that would work?"

"Clyde, you're a genius!"

Mum and Clyde left in minutes, we tested the device when they got in the car.

"Hello, Luke? Can you hear me Lukey boy?"

"Loud and clear, Clyde! Now, according to Mr.Smith you need to take the next right and follow that road all the way to the old factory. Tell Mum to leave the car in a safe place."

"Gotcha Lukey boy. We'll find your mystery girl, don't worry mate."

"Luke? Luke, please... I see orange a-and its warm. Too warm."

"I'm here, don't worry. Mum and my friend are on their way to you, I promise."

"Earth to Luke? Mate! The place is on fire!"

"I know, she told me. Please, you have to get her out. I've promised her."

My hands started to shake with nerves.

"I'm in the back room. It-its white, all white."

"Mum's there now, it won't be too long. I swear."

Then... all communication went silent. My telepathy with the girl, the device I have with Clyde, even the phone signal has been cut off.
