Secrets of the Silent

Thanks wolf. I am still busy. So if you guys can wait till summer then I will definitely give you guys an update

 

Sure. Almost done my update.

 

Question fletch did you change your character thing. I felt like you did but I can't find or remember exactly if you did or not

 

We arrived at a huge mall. The outside looked Like any mall that I have seen before. It looked like a three layer building. Inside it was different. Stores lined the wall, leaving little of the dark grey stone wall that the building was made from. It seemed extremely organized. Clothing store adjacent to other clothing stores. Once and a while you would find a extravagant fountain; most had a whitish stone mermaid with a vase like container over her head, which I'd where the blue water came out of. Others looked like a fish frozen in the middle of flopping and turned into stone. Water came out of it's huge open mouth, almost giving the fish a large-mouth bass look to it. People milled around from store to store with bags running up and down their arms. Others brought variety of skateboards, skates, and scooters, hinting that somewhere in this jungle of stores and people was a skate park. Bella took me from store to store, finding clothes that she would wear. About half way through her spree of shopping, she remembered the true reason why we came. We then went to stores that I knew and that I liked.

After spending eighty dollars and shirts, shorts, and jeans, we headed to the food court. few people were sitting at the metal tables with chairs that also metal and not connected or around the fountain, which had an smooth outcropping that was intentionally used as a bench. "Where's everyone?" I asked Inquisitively, scanning the food court.

"Well there's a food court on every level of the mall. It makes it easier for people to access the food courts and also gives more seating than having only one food court on only one level." she answered, heading over to the cluster of people in line for food from places like Chic-fal-A, Pizza Hut, KFC, and much more places that I haven't even heard of before. She handed me a couple of tens and said to get something to eat. Nervous to try something from some of these places that I never heard of, I went to the Chic-fil-A line and waited to order a regular chicken patty with some o their sauce when I spotted a trio of men wearing black suits scanning the food court for someone. Realizing that I recognized them as my pursuers, I quickly diverted my attention to the line and trying to make sure that I blended into the surrounding people. Once I got my food, I found Bella sitting at a table near the fountain of a nereid with the vase like container over her head, spilling water onto her and the the rock she was perched on. The sound of the fountain made me more relaxed a d almost forget why I was scared. Once I remembered, I stopped mid-bite and dropped my patty. "What's wrong? Food went bad," she said jokingly.

"There here." I said not looking around but down at my food, trying to make sure that they couldn't get a clear view to spot me.

"Where," she said, suddenly serious. She scanned the food court and automatically saw the men in suits. "I'll throw the foo out, you just get to the car. We got what we came for," she said picking up the food.

"Ok," I said. Picking up all the bags of cloths and miscellaneous purchases that we bought. I was half way behind the fountain that we ate by when I turned around to see that Bella was being interviewed by the man to see if she had seen me. I turned around and picked up my pace. Soon I turned and saw Bella pick up her pace and follow me. Soon she turned and ran.

"Go. I got this." she said. Obviously they found me and went going to relentlessly chase me down. She scanned her surroundings. Soon she clenched her fists, and forced her arms forward, opening her fist and flexing her fingers. Water shot from all of the closest fountains and directly impacted the men in suits. I slowed to a stop and stared in shock and awe. They obviously didn't expect her to be a formidable obstacle in there chase for me. But I saw more come.
"Run. The odds are not in her favor right now," the voice in my head said.
"Shouldn't we help her," I thought.

"No. It will still not be any good."

"Then why not you help."

The voice never got a chance to answer when a hand landed on my shoulder.

 

Go ahead. You can do it here or In pm. It doesnt matter.

 

I'm happy you picked evil. I was going to put someone evil in my next couple of updates. But since I can't contact fletch, you'll replace him. Hope you don't mind.
