I ca holding two boxes in my hands, with drinks slowly drifting in the air in front of , as I used 'Telekinesis'. I did it mostly for fun, since I hand my powers back, I really wanted to use them. I quickly realized how much I missed them.
Tihana was quite surprised since she no longer knew what I could do. I just smiled at her and thought about a table and additional chair. Both of those things erged from the ground straight in front of her, which made her jump on her little stool.
I chuckled as I placed the boxes on the new table and then sat down placing the cups on top of the pizza.
- Go ahead - I encouraged her.
She smiled in response, and took one of the drinks, then took a big sip through the straw. The familiar taste made her happy.
- You know... The first ti we t we ate pizza... But you probably don't rember, do you?
She shook her head.
- No.
- It was a weird eting. I was a crow, and you tried to feed with so granola bar - I chuckled again as the mories flashed through my mind.
She didn't really know how to react, which brought back to reality. I cleared my throat awkwardly and grabbed my drink, then opened one of the boxes and picked a slice of pizza. My mouth imdiately started watering, and a gulped my spit loudly, which made her laugh.
- You really missed this, didn't you? - she asked.
- Yeah. I really, really missed junk food out there - I said, and shoved the piece into my mouth.
It probably wasn't that great, but for , it tasted incredible. It's hard to describe. It made lose my composure for a mont as I started shoving slice after slice into my mouth. Tihana just observed in shock.
It took a while for to realize how she was looking at .
- Sh-shory - I said with a full mouth.
- I guess eating is also your superpower - she said smiling awkwardly, and then picked a slice herself.
I swallowed a mouthful. It was quite painful as it went down my throat.
- I just... I missed this a lot - I attempted to defend myself.
- It's ok. I know that it probably was a horrible experience. Genusha told us that so aliens tried to even kill you there.
- Yeah... For you too... You went to space looking for sobody you didn't even rember.
She smiled awkwardly again.
- Without you things changed in Arc - she said. - Maybe I have no mories of you, but I know how it was, and how it is right now. People are like marionettes in her hands, and they don't even know it. It made sick. I couldn't stand it when I found out.
I nodded.
- Hopefully, we will be able to change that - said Daniel, as he, without any invitation, marched inside.
He took a slice of pizza, and with a full mouth said to :
- We made so calculations, and we should have at least a month. If we are lucky, maybe even more. She can travel fast, but it will take so ti for her to really get to the bottom of what happened. We left a trail and our crocodile friend will pursue it. This should get us so ti, but we don't really know how much. And even if she goes straight to Arc, it will be difficult to muster force big enough to look for us. That could even take years, depending on how strong are those dead aliens, but we believe that before she would take such action, she might want to start ssing with people we care for.
I nodded slowly.
- Take a rest, and from tomorrow we really have to do our best to sohow make it possible to kill her - he added.
I nodded again. In the corner of my eye, I caught Genusha walking outside of the building we were occupying. Although I wanted to spend so ti with Tihana, since we didn't see each other for so long, I also was curious about that man. He clearly was heavily connected within the resistance, but I needed to know more since it could have an impact on the upcoming conflict.
My fake daughter without her mories of seed so different. I found it hard to even attempt to rebuild our relationship since I really didn't even know how to begin.
I glanced at her, and she smiled awkwardly in response. This evoked a thought in my mind that maybe it would be better if I focused on getting rid of the high queen, and bringing Tihana's mories back.
- I-i... I need to take care of sothing - I said to her, and just left the building.
I briefly caught Daniel shrugging his shoulders as he was facing her, probably in response to her silent question, then he want to take my seat and enjoy the food. I took the drink with , more because it was just in my hand than with so kind of preditation.
After I got outside I started heading towards Genusha, who was right next to the Tree, looking at the strange device carefully.
- You need to touch it - I said from afar.
This caused him to turn around, and look at . It was just a brief mont since he imdiately turned back to the Tree and following my advice placed his hand on the sphere. He imdiately took it back, surprised by what happened in his mind.
Right after that he did his second attempt and froze in place checking the options. During that short period, I closed the distance.
- Do you mind if we talk? - I asked him, pulling him back to reality.
- No, not at all - he said, turning towards , this ti properly. - I happily answer your questions.
- Good, because I have plenty of those.
- Well, I have mine too - he replied, and smiled at a little. - So maybe we do a little exchange?
