"Just think about what you wanna say and imagine me being able to hear it."
Did Nailea fall and hit her head in the maze without knowing? Is this what it feels like to be mentally insane?
Her inner monologue yelled at her not to, but Nailea's curiousity gave in.
She sighed and did as he said.
"Can you hear me?" She thought. "Yes, yes I can." His voice echoed clearly into her brain. It made her uneasy. She could feel his presence in her brain when he was talking to her.
"Why are you guys just staring at each other?" Nailea heard from above them.
Nailea snapped out of her daze, only now realizing that they had been staring at each other for no less than two minutes.
"Yeah." She cleared her throat.
"Tell the others that no one is given permission to speak to the new stick until I announce otherwise." Nailea demanded."That goes for you two as well. If anyone violates this order, they can spend a night in the guardhouse." She called back out to Harriet.
Nailea's stare lingered on the boy longer than necessary, the itch of remembrance fading away each time it was on the tip of her tongue. She climbed out of the cage and reached her hand out for him out grab.
Nailea brought him to her private room in the sanctuary — the biggest building, in the middle of the Hideout and she made it for the first, second and third in command, a few extra rooms and as well as a medical station. She then started questioning him.
"What the bloody hell was that?" She asked, my eyebrows furrowed. "How did we do that? Explain." Nailea demanded, stepping closer with each word.
"I don't know, they said they put something in our brains so we could do that. I promise I don't know anything else Rachel—" Nailea quickly cut him off.
"Woah woah woah. Who put something in our brains and who's Rachel?" she asked, even more confused than she was before. "W.C.K.D installed a telepathic connection between me and someone named Rachel. Since you heard me earlier I assumed you were Rachel..."
"Wait...are you not Rachel?" He questioned with a raised eyebrow, looking just as confused as she was. "No, I'm Nailea." She said. A deeper look of confusion spreads on his face.
"If they installed it for you and 'Rachel' then why can I do it?" She asked yet another question. "That's exactly what I was thinking." He seemed unbothered by it. "I guess they installed it for you too."
Nailea would've agreed with him except the fact that W.C.K.D never touched her.
"Yeah I guess they did." She said, pretending to be as oblivious as him. "Okay, I need to go talk to Harriet and Sonya. Let me know if anyone tries to bother you."
"I will, could I stay here? I don't really want to socialise yet." He confessed.
"Of course, I'll be back soon."
"Ok I'll uh— mind—talk to you if I need you?" His eyebrows furrowed, seemingly weirded out by his choice of words.
"Haha, very funny." She replied, her words surrounded by sarcasm. Nailea rolled her eyes with a grin painted lightly on her face.
Then she left.
