She could have runned away if they aren't with her stuff and she needs to take it back, at least was what Jennifer thought, but that redhead girl... Something was definitely wrong with her...
"Where are we going?" She asked to the boy who was driving the kart she was sat down.
"You got lucky Clar is in a good mood today. You shouldn't had tried to run. But don't worry, she is getting you to see our parents. I bet if you don't try to lie or run you'll be fine."
The group finally parked their karts in front of the castle, Jennifer was impressed with what she was seeing.
"Who live in there?" She asked to the boy.
"We." A couple of black-haired girls replied, pushing the big doors open.
They entered a crowded ballroom, where a party was really light up.
"Welcome to Sugar Rush's Battle's fifteenth aniverary!" The youngest of the girls announced happily.
So it was why the whole Arcade was there? But what was the Sugar Rush Battle.
Jennifer thought about run and lost them in the crowd, but before she could do anything, a girl, who Jannifer couldn't help but noticed was very looked alike with her friend, Stella, but with purple eyes, grabbed her by the arm and pulled her towards a group of adults.
She imediatelly recognized three of them and got still more surprised when the redhead called.
"Mom, look at what we captured outside."
"Why captured?" Calhoun asked, looking suspicious at the girl.
"She shoot Crystal." Luke accused.
"I already said it was an accident!" Jennifer protested.
"I catched it with her." Clarion threw Jennifer's stuff at the ground in front of them. "And when I tried to ask a few questions she tried to run. It's why we captured her." Clarion crossed her arms angry.
"You was scarying me!" Jennifer protested.
"Clar scares everyone." Luke laughed.
"I thought if she wasn't going to explain it to us, she was going to explain to you." Clarion said.
"Well, don't pay attention to her." Tatiana said to Jennifer. "She don't trust anyone easily and she can be a little rude sometimes, but is a good girl."
"You're sayin' it." Clarion muttered.
"So, who are you?"
"Blast-It Jennifer."
"How many time you're plugged in here?" James asked.
"Just today."
"And what brough you to Sugar Rush in your first day?" Lily asked.
"Well, it wasn't the party, of course. I left my game today to meet my parents."
She noticed the other kids sharing serious looks, Clar and Crys crossed their arms, some of the whispered with themselves or their friends. She felt nervous, what was going to happen to her?
"And who are your parents dear?" Tati asked sweetly.
For some reason Jennifer's voice failed. She guessed it was Clarion and Crystal's penetrat looks. She had to admite the two looked scary.
Clarion finally uncrossed her arms and asked:
"I can reply to this?"
"What you know?" Jannifer asked suspicious.
"I could suppose a few things. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I never am, you're progrmaed to be our sister."
Jennifer looked to her, so to the adults and back to Clarion so she nooded, and tried to smile. But she should expect something was going to go wrong.
"But..." Clarion continued.
"But what?"
"It's is just something supposed to be. But guess what? You're between the biggest pirates this Arcade even had. What we're programed to be don't really matter. We create our own lifes, and you dear, aren't part of this."
"How you can say it? The code is all we are." Jennifer protested.
"No, it isn't. You see me, I'm part of a game I'm not programed into, and have a family I wasn't progrmaed with, neither born with, but I choosed what I wanted to my life, I created who I am. About you, find your own way, but not mess with our."
"Clar, don't be so rude!" Calhoun warned there.
Clarion just shrugged.
"C'mon guys, let's forget it!" She called the other kids, and without look back they followed her.
Jennifer stood there shocked by the girl's behavior.
"She's ever so crazy?" She asked to no one in particular.
"Clar is a little hard to handle when you first meet her." Felix replied. "We had dificult to win her confidence. She turned wild sometimes, but it's not her fault, she just had a hard life and learned to not trust people. The way you acted firstly put her in alert, she will take a time to open back, just give her a time and I bet you two can be good friends."
"I really doubt it." Jennifer muttered.
"When Clarion and her twin first meet, they were the extreme of say they hated each other." Ralph told her. "She never get angry for so much. Crystal by another hand... But you should try to talk with them." He suggested.
"No, thanks. It's probably to they to try to kill me."
"I'm not saying about talk with Clar. Maybe with Lily or James first, but when you manage to befriend one of them, the others are easily to convince."
"Maybe I can give it a try. Thanks Ralph."
Another short chapter. Jennifer's problems are just beginning, she still haven't idea the trouble she ended up, but what kind of problem? you will be surprised.
