people looked in his direction with their heads forming grimaces on their faces seeing him before keeping their walking. He saw himself back away into the alleyway as the three people he saw came into view going to the arguing people to stand with the recorder eyeing them then the rectangle disappeared.
Tom frowned as the speaker spoke "Says what do you have to say Mindbender since you were obviously seen by too many First Ones who managed to react negatively towards the looks of your Berserker side in control hmm? The Meritanians report having to mind wipe those First Ones of any memory of seeing you and make it seem like they either dreamed or hallucinated your sighting so talk on this to your defense now."
Tom exhaled a breath and inhaled to speak recalling his life in Uzan "That's from living on Uzan ignored by both Freeloader and First One species since I was old enough to walk enough to let me get away with breaking too many laws involving thievery over and over. That's despite the guards guarding the Queen my mother raiser, finding the stolen items hidden in my room. It's whenever I'm out of there doing other things to return them where they were stolen over and over. The Queen as usual hasn't been able to do anything about the thievery or punish me for it due to complaints to her that I was able to do it with people not interested in paying attention to me and that I was hoping that they would give me attention hence the stealing over and over. This thievery stopped when I was implanted with the oxygen mask which got too many First Ones noticing me wearing it to do any more of the stealing. I didn't take account that the First Ones would pay attention to me despite the robe disguise and that was from assuming that this behavior on Uzan would happen to me on Shadan."
He clamped his mouth shut to frown while eyeing the High Council who went into a discussion seemingly lengthy till the speaker was heard speaking "Says what do you have to say about this talk by Mindbender, Barry?"
He eyed Barry who stopped flaring golden eyes aimed at him to shift head towards the High Council which he heard the Builder speaking "It sounds to me that Mindbender needs a lesson that natives on Shadan are different from natives on Uzan."
He frowned as Barry added speaking in foreign language in a compelling voice tone to find himself floating in the air in the night sky while eyeing the ocean down below to find part of it form a circle shape with water pouring from the looks of it as he fell towards it to find himself hitting a metal ground with a bang sound as the scene changed abruptly. Tom felt a hand First One like grab him by the neck along with Barry's familiar chatter forcing him to stand up in some bent position while still gagged by the Builder who flared golden eyes while eyeing him as he eyed the male while choking on air. Tom felt himself urging to breathe felt the Banshee refused to come forwards despite his efforts to will it forwards as he gasped for air.
He eyed Barry to hear "Says that's enough Barry so stop it now."
Tom felt himself freed to bent down coughing loudly while gasping for air repeatedly through his mouth as he felt himself getting the oxygen he needed forced himself to nose breathe while straightening up his form. He eyed the High Council as Barry kept giving him a golden eyed glare aimed at him.
Tom frowned as the speaker added "Says we have a job for you Mindbender. We expect perfect results or other wise you'll find yourself out of serving us period-"
He interrupted "I will serve you period without divided loyalties."
He heard a disgusted sound from Barry loudly as the speaker stopped talking to bow his head followed by the High Council seen going into discussion then he felt his mind scanned to recall his words mentally talking to himself about the group giving him acceptance and what he would do for them.
Tom frowned as the mind scanning stopped abruptly followed by the speaker heard "Says transport Mindbender to discreet location in Yorkville now and let him know what to do next."
He found himself in an alleyway from the looks of it felt compelled to walk in a direction which he obeyed reaching the end to hear machines' sounds sounding loudly over and over as he reached the end and stood in the alleyway eyeing various people walking by him in various directions none of them going into the alleyway which he eyed them in the eyes to noticed that they weren't glancing at him as he stood there lengthy. Tom felt a compulsion to walk out of the alleyway to stand which he obeyed noticing people eyeing him with annoyances on their faces by their eyes glancing at him and faces looking in his direction as they walked around him. Tom frowned at the gestures as he felt compelled to walk among the crowd finding that they ignored him walking by noticing some were glancing at him with their eyes but only appearing to be looking at his clothes and not his face making him annoyed for having Uzan natives doing that to him repeatedly. He felt himself fed up with that stopped walking and turned around going back to where he was transported to mentally call for Ramses to transport him out. He found his order obeyed to find himself transported to the High Council's throne room to find himself viewing himself on a recorder.
He frowned as the speaker spoke "Says what do you have to say for aborting a mission we ordered you to do?"
Tom spoke the memory of Uzan natives treating him by eyeing his clothes instead of his face or not looking at him in the eyes as seen from the Shadan natives.
He clamped his mouth shut once done to frown eyeing the High Council as the speaker spoke "Says transport Mindbender to Fingers and put him asleep once done."
Tom sighed finding himself in an observation room seeing Thura asleep on the bed in a sideways position as he went to her picking her up her not waking and held her.
He sighed thinking to himself "I'll be fine having acceptance from the High Council with Thura at my side. I aim to live forever while on Shadan with Thura living with me at my side."
Tom smiled a bit as he heard mentally in his mind not triggering the Banshee to his annoyance "That's not what I planned for you, my son."
He frowned hearing his father's mental voice sounding in his mind mentally spoke "I don't give a care for Thura will live forever with me as long as I receive acceptance from the High Council."
He heard snickering laughter in response sensed Thura move while holding her forced himself to calm to feel her cuddling with him while he held her. Tom felt himself much calmer as he laid himself onto the bed and adjusted Thura's position till she was comfortably lying on his form which he shut his eyes.
Tom mentally thought to himself "I don't care for Thura will live forever with me living on Shadan. Screw what my father says."
He heard the familiar snickering laughter tone within his mind as he laid awake for a lengthy time period.
