The Life of Mattao Forte

[Dark_Yoshi]

I woke up in the medical building of Malta after I was hit by that stun baton. I was in a room with a commander, well at least that was his rank that I say on his uniform. He was looking down at me like I had just died and he was picking my coffin. I looked up at him and I tried to say something but my throat felt like it had been burned for a couple hours. He stared up at the roof and then he walked out. I was thinking about what was going on and then I blacked out all of a sudden.

I woke up and heard two people arguing. I found I still couldn't talk so I just listened...."You were doing? I can't believe you did this and broke our treaty!" "We are not pained by our choice, we did it to our pleasure..." "I still don't want you messing with our troops!" "You do not want us as your enemies? Because we will destroy your pathetic bases and technology....You mortals are pathetic in doing....well...everything." I heard a scream, and I heard this, "You don't want to test us do you?" "No...no I was just....just...." I then heard a laugh that made all the hair on my head stand up. It was like someone was pushing a sword through my back.... "I will check on your "patient", we don't do this to many people" "No....he can't talk he won't be able to say anything." "I know that you fool!" "Yes sir...yes sir" I saw someone...no...something come into the room, he was wearing a type of body suit that looked like armor, but it didn't look like anything I'd ever seen. "He looks like he may live" was the beings words. Then he looked directly at me with....I didn't know what his eyes looked like...he began to speak..but not in audible words, like he was speaking in my mind, I didn't hear him, but yet I could, he said, "Hmm, you will live, but you will experience pain from here on in your life." I then saw him leaving the room. I was thinking about what he said and the other man who was talking to him came in. I caught my breath, it was the Admiral of the Outcasts. He looked at me then he left. I then blacked out.

I woke and I was feeling better, I could talk again but only in sentences. I saw the second in command of my fleet and he gave my four chilling words, "Your parents are dead" he then walked off. I felt like I was being hit in the back with a stun baton. I blacked out again.

The next few weeks were uneventful so we'll skip them, all that happened was I lived in medical for those few weeks and eventually got my voice and feeling back into my body. No one came to see me in medical, I didn't think it was strange though. I fully recovered and I went back to my squad.

When I got back the man who gave me the news about my parents had become the commander of the squad. I thought that I would be at least greeted by the others, but to them I had become "boy" or "thing". I thought that maybe they were all in a bad mood after that incident. But after three weeks, I found that they all hated me. I started think about deserting the Outcasts, but then the next day I decided it was time.

I was going to report to the commander but then I heard him talking, "The boy is too dangerous, we should just kill him now..." "Yes, yes, all in good time, but I think you should hear what really happened...." I had heard enough, I started sprinting to the docking bay, I bought some more equipment and took off. I didn't know where I was going but I knew where I should go...

Away from the Outcasts
