The next morning I was awoken to my alarm clock screaming in my ears. I fling my self to my closet to find something comfortable and end up throwing on a pair of sweatpants and a T-shirt.
Good Morning, Winter Dorris. We have many things to discuss.
A small yelp escapes my lips as the voice in my head spoke, it scared me a little. I was really hoping that last night was just a dream, but it looks like it wasn't, yay me. "Oh yeah, Khaji, I totally forgot you were there."
That is understandable, Winter Dorris. Last you experienced something that your species would call traumatic.
Okay, I am never going to get use to this...this is just to weird.
I grab my book bag and head to the kitchen to grab something to eat. As I was making me some toast I started to wonder, could Khaji hear my thoughts or did I have to speak out loud, or is a mixture of both.
I can hear your thoughts and I can hear you if you talk. I am apart of you, connected, it does not matter what you choose.
That's nice to know. The piece of alien tech that's currently fused to my spine can know what I'm thinking at all times. That's not an invasion of privacy, not all.
I take a couple of more bites of my toast and try to just forget everything that's happened in the last few days but I highly doubt that's going to happen. I honestly don't think my life could get any weirder.
Oh right, if I want to get to school in time I better get going. I swing my book bag on to my shoulder and head out the door, making it in record time. Wow, I think this is the first and only time I've made it to school a little early. I'm shocked.
My scanners are picking up something, Winter Dorris. It is something different.
What do you mean, something different? I wonder what she's talking about.
This thing I'm sensing, I don't exactly know what it is. Keep a lookout, Winter Dorris.
Okay, Khaji, I will keep that in mind while I'm living my normal life. In a school full of people who can be complete jerks. I head to my locker and grab my bio book. I shut my locker and then head to my first class of the day. One where I was very happy to go to. I was so excited about all the possibilities I'd be learning. I was just going to forget about everything that had happened.
It was crazy and I'm probably on a pipe dream.
I assure you, Winter Dorris. This is not a "pipe dream".
I'm never going to get use this, the Khaji speaking to me in my head. I get to my class and sit down in my normal seat. Pulling out of my essay I start to work on. I didn't even notice Principle Whitewater and two other people come into the room. "Ms. Dorris, we're going to need you to come with us."
I quickly put away my essay and sling my messenger bag over my shoulder. I follow Principle Whitewater and the two other strangers down the hallway. I was confused as to where they were taking me but I complied because he's my principal and I have this tendency to be..well as some would say a goodie goodie...I'm always helping everyone I can and I'm always following the rules, I honestly don't think I can do anything bad.
"Um, Principle Whitewater, where exactly are we going?" I ask trying to put the pieces together.
"Don't worry, you'll know when we get there." He replies as we continue to walk down the hallway.
Winter Dorris, you must get away from these men. They are being controlled by my makers, the Reach.
"Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry Principle Whitewater. I have to go pick my sister, she has a dentist appointment." I go to walk the other way but something grabs my arms, stopping me from going any further.
I turn and see the two guards holding me in place. Mr. Whitewater turns to me and says, "Winter it would be in your best interest to come with us."
"Sir please, my sister.." When I tried to budge free from their grip they just pulled harder and started to drag me down the hallway.
I suggest we take countermeasures and activate sound waves.
"No, we don't need to draw in any attention to ourselves. If we do that I don't know what will happen." I think to the scarab that fused to my spine.
I continue to fight in their grasps hoping it would catch someone's attention. I'm sure if I armored up in front of everyone it would give me much bigger problems. On my way out of the building, I pass Jamie, as I do I feel something. I don't exactly know what it was.
They pull me to a vehicle and the next thing I know I'm being hit in the back of the by something hard.
When I come to, I see a glass lid in front of me. It seems like I am in a pod of some sort. Wait...why am I in a pod? Where did Principle Whitewater go? What's happening? What's going on?
Winter Dorris, calm down. You are in a genesis pod. You've been given to the Reach and they are going to try and turn you on mode which is going to fail. I will never be able to go on mode due to how I was made.
I look through the glass and I see some alien bug looking things and a giant thing in black beetle armor. God, he looks like John Cena on steroids with black beetle armor. I'm in way over my head. I have a feeling this isn't going to end well.
"Hello little sister, let's get started."
