"I thought I told you to leave the doors unlocked", the man whipsered while I panicked.

I stared at the masked person with wide eyes and then looked at the door and at him again, "You- YOU JUST GOT IN MY ROOM?!", I yelled.

"Shhh! If you want to get out of here you'll have to be quite."

"How'd you get in?"

"I broke in."

"Are you the one that sent me the letter?", I looked at his eyes which was the only thing visible of him. He was cover in a black attire completely. Wearing black khaki pants and black long sleeve, turtle neck t-shirt, along with a mask and combat boots. He even wore gloves.

"Yes. We need to move now I need you to change your clothes right now for us to go though okay."

"What!", I whisper yelled, "I don't even know who you are. How do I know if your not here to just kill me. You send me a fucking letter saying my parents aren't dead, break into my room and then tell me to change so we can leave!", I say my voice rising again.

The man seems to be baffled for a while then he shrugs, "Well I mean I did ask you to leave the door open so.."

I stare at him like he's crazy. Although I do want to leave, and would kill to see my parents again. Alive and in the flesh, no matter how much I wanted to believe that they still live. I can't. I can't just go around trusting random people, "Get out now, before I get someone down here."

"No! Wait wait.. My name is Ian okay. I'm not here to kill you. I work for your parents. I'm apart of an under cover elite team alright and they're the leaders of it. I'm simply doing my job right now which is to get you and bring you back home with me to your parents. I couldn't believe they had a child but to be honest looking at you now you do kinda look like Helena-"

"How do you know my moms name?!"

"Did you not hear a thing I just said?"

I looked at him, "Are they really-", I found myself chocking up. It can't be true. They're alive. He must really be a Tunnel, cause otherwise how would he know moms name, "My father? Do you know his name?

"You mean Marc yeah. One hell of guy I tell you I think he doesn't like me though- hey hey don't cry. Did I say something wrong?"

I shook my head wiping away the tears. They really might be alive.

I look at the man, "Please tell me you're not lying sir"

The man looks at me with his green eyes he's silent for awhile. Then he removes his mask revealing a handsome face. He's got a freckles and reddish brownish hair. His face is chiseled though, and his eyes a bit babyish I could see now and he had a light scar on his left cheek. His nose was straight and a little small. His hair was a short and sloppy a bit. But cute messy though.

"I'm not lying. Please believe me. I can get you away from this place but you need to trust me. We need to leave now. On top of this building is an escape plan waiting but we don't have a lot of time left before we're caught."

I looked him in the eyes. And saw the desperation and gave him a quick nod.

He nodded back and gave me a bag of clothes. The same attire as his except in my size. I stared at him and he looked confused for second then turned around. Yeah, better had turned around. I quickly got dressed. Although the shirt and shoes were the same the pants were different from his. The were more like leggings maybe. This was uncomfortable to me to be honest. I was used to very loose soft clothing. This ... this literally showed my whole shape. Which I wasn't necessarily ashamed of I had pretty nice curves, but I felt kinda naked.

"I'm done", I said.

Ian turned around and glanced at me then turned towards the door only to take another slightly longer look at me. He grinned and nodded, "To bad. I've got a girlfriend I'm pretty in love with. But you're still pretty hot."

My face heated up, and I looked away without giving a response.

He tossed me a mask just like his and I slipped it over my face and hair. I was kinda worried it wouldn't go over due to my hair which was puffy and curly but it did, the mask stopped just at my neck line leaving the rest of my hair falling around my shoulders and back. Ian slipped on his mask then signaled for me to be quite and to follow him. We walked down the hallways stopping a few times for God knows what. Until we were up on the third floor where the older people sleep.

We got down that hallway as well reaching a ladder. I went up first Ian following after climbing till we were standing outside. There was a warm breeze to the nights air. And the stars seemed to sparkle brighter.

On the roof waiting for us was a helicopter, "Woah", I say awestruck.

"First time seeing one I'm guessing?", Ian says smiling.

I nod and kinda laugh, "You've guessed correctly. Are we going on that".

He nods proudly and surely, "Yup."

Ian climbed on first. Glad for the gloves keeping skin contact away. I wasn't used to it since it's always been unusual at Light, most people haven't touch another until reaching age and being placed with a partner. I still haven't reached age so...

After getting on I took a seat and Ian strapped me in. He shut the door and sat down himself except he didn't strap himself.

"You can take your mask off", he said taking his own off.

I pulled it off gladly. There were two people controlling the thing. A girl with a jet black hair a bob cut that was shorter at the back getting longer towards the front. She wore red lipstick which looked nice on her snow white skin. She was beautiful. Had a certain edgy delicacy to her. She smiled at me, "Hi", she said, "I'm Lucy. That's my brother, Mac.", she pointed to the other person.

He also had black hair and white skin. He was cute with a very young but cold looking face. He looked like Lucy but more masculine

"He's my twin brother", she shrugged. Oh that makes more sense.

"I'm Inesmaye", I said to her and her brother who gave me a slight nod.

"Nice to meet you", she flashed a genuine smile at me, "I hope Ian here was nice to you."

I glanced at him and he grinned.

"Course I was babe", he looked at Lucy, "Who do you think I am? C'mon now."

Babe?

"A straight up douch bag."

"Is that how you treat the man you love", Ian gave her a blank stare.

And she gave him a sweet smile, "Always and forever baby", she said.

Ian continued staring at her with a blank look that began turning into a hurtful look.

"Aww", she said, "Don't cryyy. Come here give me kiss."

Ian pouted then leaned in and gave her a peck. A peck that turned into something deeper. Something that had me looking away with my face hot.

Jeez. I've never seen anyone kiss in my life. It's not shown on t.v. because it's considered to be a much to intimate act. I can see why now. And people who have come of age and or partnered are forbidden to kiss in public or anything really. Even hold hands, but they still do that even though you're not allowed to.

"Ian stop."

"Why."

"We have a guest Ian. Look we're making her uncomfortable. C'mon we have to go now anyways."

They spoke in hushed voices but I could still hear them perfectly.

Both of them glanced at me and I blushed and looked away.

"Sorry", she mumbled, "Were taking off now. It's going to be a long ride an hour or so. So you can rest, people tend to sleep early at light society yeah?"

i nod, "Yeah pretty much."

"I'll dim the lights for you", she lifted up into the air my body becoming weightless for a moment as the helicopter rose.

A moment later after steady flight the lights went dim.

I couldn't see the stars which was disappointed, but fatigue was a great distraction.

I was finally going to see my parents, after six years.

I dreamed of them in my sleep...

...

"Woah", I say in astonishment.

"Pretty awesome huh?"

"It's incredible", I answer.

The colors from the deepest purple to the brightest yellow. People of different shapes and sizes, different styles. And technology far more advanced than the Lights. It was loud, but lovely. A sense of happiness radiated from these people. Women with hair shorter then men, and men with hair longer then women. Some even had drawings on their skin.
