22-Phone

I spend the rest of the morning testing what Faraday could make with that... I was going to call it " new power" but Most likely she could do that from the very beginning, there is a lot of functionality to Faraday's powers we haven't discovered yet just because she hasn't tried to use them for anything but moving stuff. Anyway. I kept telling her to zap pebbles on the ground to discover if there was a limit to what she could transmute things into, turns out I still have no idea.

She somehow changed coal to platinum, back to coal and then somehow to jelly... I ... what the hell?.

I need Cecile because I have absolutely no clue what is going on here... I mean she most likely won't know either but at least will try.

Now, my phone is.... yeah....

it's almost time for Faraday's programed feeding. That means she will come personally to deliver her rubbish. Then it is my time to ask for my stuff back.

-Hey Alan.

Faraday says next to me, we are almost next to each other on the wall of the cell.

-What's wrong dear?.

-Oh I just wanted to know...-she grabs me gently from my shirt.- Is... miss Cecile coming back?.

-I still don't know about that dear, I'm working on it. I need my phone to know if she even wants to come back, unfortunately madame Gustave has it, so I can't do it right now.

- Pho... oh, I completely forgot about my phone too.

-You have it with you?.

- No, she took it from me when she took my bed.

-She really did take everything....

-She even took my music player, that is what I miss the most.

-I thought Cecile was what you missed the most.

- I do, she is what I miss the most, but at least I can spend the night with music thinking about her, but now I can't even do that...

I turn my head to see Faraday.

-W-what? is that wrong?!- She asks me genuinely worried

-Oh nonono, it's just quite cute, that is all.

-Oh... is tha-

We both turn around quickly when we hear the door to the room opening, as I expected, the wicked witch turns out to be the one entering the room. Instinctively my fight or flight response is activated and I stand up from where I was sitting as fast as humanly possible.

She stands in front of the door frame without moving a muscle, only her eyes seem alive, scanning both of us nearly at the same time.

She starts taking steps towards the cage and the room is so silent that every step she takes with her heels bounces in the walls and amplifies the sound.

After 7 steps she is close enough for me to see her face clearly , she has a smug face that results so repulsive to me.

At the moment she entered I didn't notice but she didn't came with a plate of food, instead, there is something obstructing the path of the door, something resembling a really high cilinder.

When that thing comes across the door and finally hits the light of the room I finally see that it is Faraday's bed just sideways.

She did bring her stuff th- wait where is the rest.

-Where is the rest?.

-This is everything she'll get from me, I am already giving her more than she deserves.

-This is not what we agreed on.

-You want to discuss our agreement?.

She smiles at me, shivers run in my body and I feel the urge to vomit.

- Just... just leave that thing here and leave.

-As you wish.

Telepathically she opens the door and launches de bed right to the other side of the cage, that strength could have easily knocked out any human alive.

She was about to leave, I immediately remember what I was going to ask in the first place.

-Hey!, where is my phone?.

She stops mid way to the door frame and turns around.

-Why do you want it so bad?. As far as I know there is no need for phone calls in regard to the maintenance of the facility, so you don't actually need it.

-I need it to make a call, that is all.

-A call to who?, may I ask.

-I need to make sure someone is okay.

- You aren't talking about that doctor you hired, are you?.

-Yes, I am talking about that doctor, and her name is Cecile.

-What relation do you have with that person?.

-That is none of your damm business.

-Actually, it is my business, you're not supposed to develop attachments towards anyone in this facility.

She looks right behind me and makes it so obvious on purpose.

-Especially regarding subjects.

I turn to see faraday, she clearly wants to say something to her but knowing what she can do she just pouts and saves her anger.

- I would appreciate if you stopped talking that way to Faraday.

-What would you do if I don't? I wonder.

My mouth Can't open and the word won't come out, she gets closer and closer to me, I back up to the cage, there is no more room for moving.

With my hands on my back trying to find some room to move I feel one hand grab me from inside the cage...

-Stop treating Mr Alan that way!.

The voice in my back screams while holding even tighter my hand.

-Oh you finally want to speak up again, cute.

I see Gustave raising her hand, her motion indicates that her signature was directed to Faraday, I feel Faraday's hand grip me even harder, in anticipation for the pain she is about to experience.

My body acts on its own do to the situation Faraday is in. I launch myself to the front grabbing Gustave's arm before she can lift it to do anything.

She looks down on me with death eyes, my end is near, but even then my conviction is high enough to not let go and even grab her even more tightly.

Our eyes are looking at each other with serious intentions to hurt. After about 10 seconds she backs up her arm and turns around.

-Fine, have it your way.- She puts her hand in one of the pockets of her dress and throws me my phone, it almost hits my face but I manage to stop it with my hand.- But we'll discuss upon your actions later. And go get that thing something to eat before I even hear her complain about that.

She walks angry to the door frame an crosses it, before the door closes Faraday gets to the bars of the cage.

-Thanks a lot ma- GAAAH!- Faraday screams in pain as Gustave turns around and with a flick of her hand does what ever she does to People to make them feel pain.

I rush to try and stop her again but by the time I am near the door, it closes. I see her walking away through the window, Faraday falls to the ground.

-Honey are you okay?.

-Aaaawie my tummy hurts~...

Her belly has a little blue shine to it, most likely her regeneration, I don't know what Gustave did but apparently involved internal organ damage.

I swear to God I'll make her pay one day.

-You'll be fine, don't worry hon, it will hurt for a little bit but you'll be fine in a couple of seconds.

-I thinks it's passing now... I'm getting better, but I will still be hungryyyy.

She says with teary eyes. She didn't have those even when her organs exploded, apparently being hungry hurts more than that to her.

-I'll get you something to eat, it can be anything but just one thing apparently, we can't be crossing that much lines for one day.

-Waffles would be good!.

She says, clearly and with happiness in her words... she was just making me feel bad to bring her waffles.... she got me not gonna lie.
