Invader
ACME
First encounters chapter one.
I own only myself here, everything else is not owned by me.
All was quiet at ACME, and invader was sleeping peacefully in a dorm room dreaming of home. In the hallway outside Cole was listening to chase and some other detective. He was wondering why the dorm room that was usually unoccupied was now off limits. Bored out of his mind he decided to do some investigating, and crept to the door and opened it. The lights in the hall strode into the room revealing a bunch of sheets and blankets on top of a mattress. Unbeknown to him Shadow and Jules were keeping an eye on him. Sensing something else was up, Cole crept closer and saw a figure wound up in the sheets, in a tangled mess.
" How is that even comfy?" He ponders aloud.
" What is not comfy?" Questioned Shadow as he walked in.
" Her, how can she sleep like that ? " Remarks Cole. " Only a contortionist would be that comfortable!"
" THAT IS NOT A NICE THING TO SAY!" Comes the voice of Jules entering the room.
" Come see for yourself." Remarks Shadow.
Jules walks over and glances at a sleeping invader, who is quite comfy and unaware of them at the moment.
" How is she not suffocating?" Whispers Jules.
Meanwhile the commotion has woken up invader, who opens one of her eyes ever so slightly and sees three figures looming over her. Becoming fully awake now,invader untangles herself and tries to leap past them in a panic. Shadow catches her, somehow looses his grip, and invader darts under the bed. The trio now somewhat startled, just stare silently trying to make sense of the girls reaction.
" What did I do ?" Demands Shadow.
" Maybe we should give her some space." Calmly replies Jules.
" Why is she so spooky?" Cole demands.
"Who knows, maybe we can coax her out?" Offers Shadow.
Invader continues to hide under the bed, watches the trio leave the room, and listens intently. Satisfied that no one is going to get her, she crawls out from under the bed not noticing shadow creeping up on her. All at once shadow grabs her by the leg and pulls her close to him expecting a fight. Instead of fighting, invader tries to curl up on herself, and shadow lets her go. Jules walks into the room, she finds invader curled up and shaking on the floor.
" Hey little angel, no one is gonna hurt you." Reassures Jules approaching her.
Invader remains silent expecting the worst.
" Hey you are among friends here." Cole remarks, entering the room.
" I am sorry.... do you forgive me?" Asks Shadow.
" I .... forgive...you." Stutters Invader.
" We would never hurt anyone." Laughs Cole. "Especially not a cute girl like you!"
Almost blushing invader once again falls into silence.
"You like her don't you?" Pokes Shadow at Cole.
" Wait, what?!?" Cole remarks turning a bit red.
" Why don't you give her a grand tour of ACME?" Suggests Jules.
"Alright I can do that" Grumbles Cole.
"Does that sound ok to you? " Jules asks of invader.
Invader just nods at the question hesitantly.
" Who did this to you?" Jules remarks, after noticing a scar on invaders face.
" I .... don't know.... I ... never found out ..after they........" Stammers Invader growing upset.
Shadow just listens silently and notices invader getting upset.
"After they what? " Demands Cole.
"Hush! Cole!" Jules snaps.
" They .... shoved me.... head first... into a locker..... I.. ..I... was knocked out......no ....idea how ....long..." Invader blurts out. " So .... long ago...... 13 .... years ....of .... hell...."
" I would say she got picked on a lot, in fact sounds like they did a number on her" Intones Shadow.
" 13 years...... I had no idea........" Cole replies trailing off.
" I .....I .... DON'T WANT TO GO BACK!!!" Yelps Invader clearly upset.
" No one is gonna make you go back , not unless you want to." Reassures Jules. " Cole can you please report this to chase?"
"Alright, I will go talk to him." Replies Cole almost grumbling.
" The things kids do to each other......." Trails of Shadow.
" Invader can you hear me?" Inquires Jules to a silent invader.
" I think she, has had enough for now." Sighs Shadow. " We should let her be for some time."
The two of them help invader back to bed, she burrows back into the sheets, the nightmares came later.
End of chapter one.
