Finally we met up in the Secret Place up on top of Building 9... In the Greenhouse. Cati knew for sure there wasn't any security systems here. We could talk freely.
Unknown Third entered. The glass door opened and closed. Slightly in the heat of the room, we could see his outline in the haze. He sat down on a crate next to a leafy plant. Already Cati and I were seated on enormous, up-turned pots. "Finally!" Cati said, exasperated, "You take long enough!"
Unknown Third sighed, "Sorry. Sometimes being invisible is hard! Plus you basically told me to wait in the training room for nothing. So yes, it did take me 'long enough' to get here because I went through a detour for you!"
I giggled into my hand, while Cati just shot him a death glare.
"So, why are we here?" He asked.
"Gossip!" Cati yelled.
"Shh!!" Me and Third hissed at once.
Cati stuck out her tongue. "Soo, what went on between you two? Other than the fact I busted my butt off saving your hide!"
And I explained what had happened, in utter most detail as possible, but not giving away my emotions.
"All my hard work for that?!" Cati looked miffed. "So he trusts you and you him. Big whoop. He's the enemy, may I remind you." She crossed her arms. "I ran into the Mistress today, just for you..."
All of us cringed at her name.
"Well, there must be something more on your mind." Third said.
"Um... yeah." I confessed. "I've been rethinking our purpose here."
I could sense both Cati's and Unknown Third's displeasure. Both didn't go against the People. Otherwise there would be 'punishment'. "So treason?" Third whispered.
"I--" I faltered. "Yes."
Cati threw her hands in the air, and Third emitted his fear in the issue. "Lith, are you trying to get us all killed?! If you weren't my best friend, I would report you to the Mistress!" Cati started to pace around.
"But I need to rescue Darvire!" I said suddenly.
Cati starred me down. "ALL this for a Vampire?! Once you save him, he'll just suck your guts out for crying out loud!"
"No--He's not--"
Cati cut me off again, "Is this because you like him? That is too weird. We weren't trained to 'like', Talitha!" She stopped her pacing. "Hey, since this is a 'girl' talk, should I send Third outside?"
"NO!" I exclaimed. "Just calm down. It's not what you think, alright?"
"Then..." Unknown Third said calmly, "what is it?"
