"Um...." I tried to think up a lie, really I did, but I never was any good at it. By the way Triskix was looking at me like, I-know-you-are-trying-to-lie, but-it-will-not-get-past-me, look. Figuring that I was already to far up the creek without a paddle, I started to tell him about the whole ‘portal incident’. When out of no where I felt someone running up to us, and without getting the chance to comprehend who it was I heard, "Marlex?"
Nearly jumping out of my skin I turned around fast only to see Lexian standing not to far away. I was happy that I could maybe steer the convocation away from this Marlex guy, thanks to Lexian. Then right when I was about to hug him for being a distraction, I heard his next words that lead right back to the uncomfortable convocation from before, boy did I want to hit him. “That name sounds kinda familiar...but..."
Looking back down to the floor of this portal, I found out that combat boots can be ‘very’ fascinating at times. “Well… you see I don’t know why but once I saw the pale pink hair, I had to follow him. Then when he took off into the portal, I knew that it would not be the best think to do. I followed him into the portal, I didn’t know where it was going but…” I knew I had to slow down, talking to fast was something that I usually did. It was a nervous habit you could say, if nobodies can actually be nervous or if it was just another one of those memory emotions.
“He was there inside the portal. Someone else came after he said some things and we had a scuffle. The other guy… he was familiar too, bright blue eyes, but I don’t think he would mind killing… others, unlike Marlex. But—that’s what we are supposed to do right Triskix? Lexian? ReXi? We are not supposed to have remorse about killing someone, right.” I was too confused about everything from our goals, and where mine fit into everything. Then the other organization, and what they are doing. Throwing in old memories that I didn’t want to bring up again just made it even more confusing. Which one where we… the good guys with the white cowboy hats, or are we wearing black...
