Chapter 2: day keeps on getting weirder
The thundering noise of the car starting up was a strange new feeling to Michael, but it wasent bad not to say that was the only thing Michael was feeling at the moment, with a plastic cup with a foreign brown hot substance in his left hand that he stared at weirdly, with a symbol of a V and a seven that was smack dabbed in the center, it smelled sweet with a hint of something else entirely she called it 'Coffee' weird the names sounded familiar but he couldn't quite remember where he heard it from.
Bringing the plastic cup to his lips, he stoped as he momentarily glanced at the substance one last time, thinking if it was laced with poison or something deadly he couldn't remember how many times friends and enemies, have tried to end his life by poisoning his food and water, and he wouldn't give the benefit of the doubt to her.
Looking straight ahead sitting straight across from him, was the same person that gave him this cup of 'Coffee' indira Shetty, who was currently sipping on a similar plastic cup of 'coffee' while moving her fingers across a strange rectangle device that sat on her lap, and pressing small square like buttons that made annoying clacking sounds.
Michael's evaluation of her currently, was she was a very suspicious person to the point it made the back of his neck hairs rise, and that was never a good sign, lowering the plastic cup away from his lips he held it together with both of his palms.
His instincts where always right, especially towards people who always had a hidden agenda, and she was no different.
Unlike Lucius whose mask was long seen through by him, it would only take a matter of time before he unravels hers.
"Your track record is by far the most intriguing I've seen, Mr.Cage."Her voice rang through the silent moving car, as Michael watched how she set her cup to the side, where a small circular cup holder was, before staring back into his eyes.
"I could stay up all night and still not be finished, my word it's like a thesaurus did Hamilton write this himself."
She said smiling, pleased with her own little joke while Michael couldn't say he understand the reference.
The silence after her words clouded the air briefly, while Michael noticed the small little ticks she made like shifting her smile and wiggling her pinky as the look on her face strained.
With a light cough she moved her gaze and looked through the window, Michael couldn't understand why but he also did the same.
"Rosemary Institution has always Produced The Crème De la Crème, that would later go on to be ranked hero's in the future, hand in hand with Godolkin support of course which is why it troubled me that for five years I haven't received word until now."
Michael knew the reason it was simple,a truth everyone knew in rosemary, not some hard mystery or anything like that no instead it was painted in bloody red colors for all to see, after all five years ago was when his reign began, and the others ended.
He could still remember the chaos, the pure bloodshed that filled the halls and the taste of metallic the slipped on his tongue, the screams of enemies who begged for mercy.
"A generation of undeniable first pick hero's, with the potential to join the Seven and replace the old man and woman that hold onto the top hero ranks, All wiped out by a Thirteen year old Boy in the span of fourteen days."
Michael could feel her hot gaze, piercing his body weither it was hatred for his actions or something else entirely, he couldn't say it was weird but the back of his neck hairs where rising, that meant something.
"Remarkable."
Her voice took him aback mentally, as he met her strange gaze her pupils where dilated her cheeks where bright red, as she panted she looked deranged especially the look in her eyes, that she harbored it wasent like Lucius when he used to pamper the top residents with anything they wanted all while having that dark look on his eyes, as if he was looking at his favorite new toy no it was…
Before he could process it, it was gone the mask was back as fast as it came it went.
"Truly Dean Lucius never fails to suprise me, even if he had other things to say, nevertheless those five years where worth the wait still it would have been nice to been notified sooner."
Michael, couldn't stand that name, it followed him everywhere but the feeling was mutual, between him and that man.
"But what can you do, when life hands you apples, you can't help but catch them."
She said laughing happily, yet her eyes never left Michael.
'She one weird woman.' Michael couldn't help but think.
"Now then before we arrive at your new home, I've already assembled your new schedule personally handled by yours truly, you will major in Lamplighter school of crime fighting, followed up by Intro to crimson countess school of Media training, and will go through all five of Knights intro to Heroics Detective courses and ethics, I've already got it all planned out just leave it all to me."
Michael head was hurting from the rapid rate she was talking, while she puffed proudly he nodded to whatever the hell she was saying Michael could care less as long as he had a meal and a bed he was fine.
"I knew you would like it, we share some much in common Michael don't worry with me in your corner, everything going to be a breeze."
Suddenly the car stopped, as the door opened where a armored person stood with his arm covering his forehead as the wind for some reason blew violently.
'I knew it was to good to be true.' Michael thought grimly, tensing his body ready to fight whoever was controlling the wind until a muffled voice spoke from the armored man.
"Maam the helicopter is ready to take you to site A."
"Wonderful."
Indira nodded, as the man offered his hand which she took, getting off the car Michael followed his body tensed his eyes narrowed as he stared at the beast who tore through the wind with ease, he or she looked weird with metal spikes that spinned rapidly ontop of their body and a black color all around he's fought individuals able to change their shape at will before, all tough battles hundreds of thoughts raced his mind as he calculated ways to dismember them quickly before that can change into something else.
"Michael what are you waiting for? Get into the helicopter, I want to show you godolkin as soon as possible."
Snapping him out again was indira already inside the person who she called 'Helicopter' strapped inside on a seat, Michael couldn't help but look at her and the helicopter strangely.
"Helicopter?"
'She was definitely weird, and so was this helicopter person whatever kink this was Michael didn't want to be apart of it.'
