On the 25th of December 2010, an untraceable broadcast signal intrusion occurred on a local Los Angeles television network during a 6 P.M news service. A circular red logo which featured a silhouette of a crane appeared on screen for approximately t...
I looked at the name, slightly confused. Then I turned over the envelope: 'for Matt only. Do not open.'
Then a memory came back.
I remembered them. Trevor, Serena and Gary. They saved us from freezing to death in the river. They were all doctors. Except for one. Trevor's son, Matt, who was taken by C.R.A.N.E.. I remembered when I saw a family photo of them. He was a slender kid with glasses.
But something happened.
Gary...he was killed. I couldn't remember how. But I knew he was, and he gave me this letter to give to Matt.
So that made one thing clear. Aatu was okay. Wasn't sure if he was caught by C.R.A.N.E, but at least he wasn't surely dead.
Suddenly, the cell door made a buzzing sound and it opened. Martin returned.
He didn't even say a greeting coming in the cell, he just walked over to his bed and searched and checked for something under there.
"Um...hey." I said.
"Hey, Roukan. Feeling more like yourself today?"
"I'm hoping so." I replied.
He did not turn his head at all, he kept searching for something under the bed.
"If you wanted to know, I was gone to do a job. I usually work around computers and stuff. They're always messing up the system somehow, and I always have to fix it up with codes." He sighed.
He seemed to give up on his search and sat down on his bed after letting out an annoyed sigh.
"Hey, I need to ask you something." I said.
"What is it?" He asked, sounding irritated.
He didn't bother looking at me, he just lay there looking at the ceiling.
"Why did you lie about your name?" I asked.
I heard Martin's breathing stop. He still looked at the ceiling for a few seconds then turned his head.
"What do you mean?" he asked, sounding kind of...threatening.
"You're not Martin, are you?" I justified.
He stared at me for a good few moments and slowly got up, going back to sitting on the bed.
"I don't know what you mean, Roukan." he denied. "My name is Martin. It's just Martin. I have no idea what you are talking abo-" he said.
"Matt." I interrupted. "You don't have to pretend to be someone else. I know who you are. You're Trevor's kid, right? He's a doctor. Your mother was a nurse and your brother was a vet."
Matt just continued to stare, but he finally showed some emotion.
Anger.
He quickly stood up and unexpectedly dragged me to the floor, holding me down with arm.
"Where are they!?" He exclaimed. "You hurt them didn't you?"
"No Matt. I didn't." I tried to explain, but because of the way Matt held me down to the ground and the pain made it difficult to speak.
"I'll make sure to give you a very slow and horrible death. You C.R.A.N.E spies always trying to get information out of me."
"C.R.A.N.E spies? Matt no just listen." I said while he put more pressure on his arm, making it harder to breathe.
"L-look at that note on my bed please. It's f-from Gary." I said.
Matt turn from anger, to slight concern. He finally let go of me and turned to the bed.
"Don't move an inch." he warned.
He walked over to the bed and picked up the bloody letter. Matt looked at it cautiously and slowly opened it. He took the note out of the envelope and began reading it.
Thank god for that note, because I would've suffocated at any moment if Matt kept choking me.
I hoped that somehow that note explained everything to Matt. I don't know how Matt was going to react. Was he going to be even more furious with me? Or was he going to somehow understand what was going on?
Whatever you wrote Gary, I hoped that your last words to your brother would save my life.
*A/N: whaaa an a/n!? What is this blasphemy? Well, I have decided that I won't be doing character profiles because they take too much time and i'd rather get on with the story. So these shall help me if I need to tell you something.
Also, this amazing artist on instagram named inkcross drew this totally badass drawing of Roukan and it is just so....

Anyways hope you enjoyed. So Matt has been found! But how will he react to Gary' note? Let's hope he doesn't go apeshit on Roukan again.
