8 I Found Him

I get up and look at myself. I don't remember changing into a tank and shorts, but I don't feel like stressing myself out trying to figure it out. My hair looks fine but I pull it up with my ribbon and you can't really tell that I just woke up, so I open the door.

"I can tell that you have an attitude."

It's Sky. Of course. So I slam the door shut in his face, but he catches it with his hand.

"Really." He says.

"What do you want?" I ask.

"You have an hour to be downstairs." He says.

"Nice to know. Now go away." I say trying slam the door again, but he keeps it open.

"Why are you so mean?" He asks.

"I'm not mean." I say. "I'm tired. That was some of the best sleep ever. I have an hour to be down there, so I'm gonna sleep for twenty more minutes."

"And after that?"

"I'm going to shower, get dressed, and sleep for another ten minutes."

"And then?"

"And then I'll go downstairs."

He sighs and nods his head. "I'll be back in forty-five minutes."

"Whatever." I say and slam the door. This time he lets me.

I really don't understand why he's so persistent, but I'm stubborn. So we'll see how long this lasts. I sleep for another twenty minutes, like I said then get up and shower. I realize I don't have any clothes, but when I open the closet it's stuffed with different things. I pull out a black fitted dress and it really highlights my curves, so I wear it. Besides, it's casual and will do for now. I lay back down for another ten minutes and when I wake up I figured I should beat Sky to the punch. I make my bed and leave the room and Sky's literally turning the corner. He's dressed in a suit and looks stunning, but I'm positive I look better.

"I'm ready." I say smiling.

"You...look…" He says.

"I know. I know. Hold your applause." I say. "I'm beautiful, but let's get this over with so that I can go back to sleep."

He laughs and shakes his head. "Follow me."

We walk and walk and I don't really pay attention to which floor we end up on, but he opens door 003 in Hall A. I don't know what to expect when we enter the room, but there's a big platform and everyone's sitting around it. When I walk in they all start clapping and cheering and Sky pushes me forward and whispers in my ear.

"Go stand up there."

"What! Why?" I ask.

"It's part of tracing Chaos and everyone wants to see you work."

"What do I do?"

"You'll know."

And then he helps me up onto the platform. Looking down I can clearly tell that each and every single person in the crowd expects a lot from me, so I really can't let them down.

"Um...hello?" I say more like a question.

Everyone responds by nodding their heads and smiling extremely hard. It's kind of weird. I don't know what to do, but I guess winging it is all I've got right now. I close my eyes and think about Chaos. His image appears in my head and it's so life like that it kind of scares me. Chaos is just standing and you can pretty much tells he's evil by the way he's stanced in the fields. He just has that look on his face. I almost fall off the platform, shocked by how real it all seems, but Sky's right there supporting me in a flash.

"What happened?" He asks supporting me.

"I know where he is." I say straightening myself.

He pulls up some sort of computer gps on his gauntlet and I input the exact coordinates. I honestly still have no clue how I did that and it scared me straight, but I guess it's time for us to get a move.

"It's a success." Sky says and the whole crowd bursts into cheers. "It's time for us to go." He whispers into my ear.

It's funny really, he does a lot of ear whispering and he doesn't even ask. It's annoying sometimes because it's unexpected and scares me, but then it's also comforting because the fact that he's right there even when I don't know shows that he really has my back.

"Ok." I nod.

We leave the room and I don't really know where we're going, but we end up outside and I don't really question it. I never do.

"You're not going to ask where we're going?" He asks.

"No." I say.

"That's weird don't you think?" He says. "I could be on my way to kill you."

"Yeah, right." I say half to myself.

We walk and occasionally someone calls out to Sky and he waves. About five-percent wave to me and smile. The City of Snow truly is beautiful.
