Flash fiction friday

For @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt

A mind mage tries to make a revenge driven boy to open up to her. By force if necessary.

Meeting of the minds

"You went through my memories." Sonny accused her. His eyes turned bloody red colour and his body went dangerously still.

Mae tensed up involuntarily, but managed to keep her voice steady.

"Yes. Because you found out a secret that turned your world upside down, and yet you can't bring yourself to share it with anyone. You push them all away."

"People like you are the reason. So much for trusting you."

"You were dying to tell somebody, but your own stubbornness made you incapable of doing so. I did you a favour."

He laughed hoarsely, amazement fighting denial with a note of desperation at the edges. She felt sorry for him. The things she found out about what happened to his family were terrible. His City was so afraid of their rare powers, they were mistreating and isolating them in fear. When they tried to rise up against the City council, they were killed. 

And Sonny’s brother took the blame to protect their family name. He took upon himself how their clan would be remembered and gave up any relationship with his younger brother in the process.

Sonny found out only after his death. That was three days ago. 

“What am I supposed to do?” he asked, folding into himself. 

Mae breathed out in relief at the sight. If he decided to fight her, mind magic or not, he would have killed her in a blink. 

“Come with me. Don’t trust a person who would turn your grief against you, like Vain. You don’t know what he will gain from this.”

“Because you are doing it for such selfless reasons.”

“No. I’m very much in this for my own gain as well. But I’ll tell you what it is. You can be sure of what I’m doing won’t hurt anybody.” Mae put her hands on her hips and fixed his glowing red eyes with her intense stare. “Everything has a price. It’s better to know what it is upfront, instead of having it bite you later.”

“Alright. What do you want?”

“I need you to come back to the City and convince them to help mine.”

Another laugh. “Oh, and why would they listen to me? I put my revenge against my brother-” his voice broke and he coughed before continuing. “I put my interests before theirs for years. Why should they listen?”

“They will want you back.”

“Ha. But I don’t want to go back. In fact, I’m pretty sure I would rather destroy them with the power they would accept me back for.”

“Look, you are feeling betrayed right now. Because you trusted them. You trusted the greater good of the City and the council and how they managed powered exceptional people like you. I never believed institutions or authorities have good intentions. That they won’t go corrupt even if they did. But I believe in people. In individuals doing the right thing. And I’m in a harder position than you. I have no allies, no cards and a lot to lose, while you have chosen to see nothing of what you have for something you have already lost.” 

She took a deep breath and continued more gently.

“I won’t pretend that I know how you feel. Nor that I have your best intentions in mind. But I know what happened to you and how you think. So what about you helped me and in the meantime saw the City, the people that live and fight for it right now, with the good and the bad and the gray and made your decision about its corruption and destruction after?"

Sonny directed his carmine eyes at her again. Her heart was drumming painfully against her ribcage. This was her only chance. The only way to get help from a City as mighty and out of reach as his. 

“Fine,” he said after what felt like an eternity. “I will help you, just to see if they are capable of helping someone in need. Of doing anything good. With eyes unclouded by hatred as much as I can.” 

Mae’s legs were shaking from the tension. She wanted to fall over then and there. 

"I met them, you know. Your friends. Ren and Kai and Lory. They never gave up on you.” That was her last card. She saved it up for last resort. Now she wanted to give it to him in thanks.

Sonny threw her an agonized look and turned his back to her.

“You will have to help me. I don’t...I don’t know how to tell them. If I even should tell them. If I want to-” his voice broke again.

Mae’s heart flooded with sadness and sympathy for him. She wished she could come closer and touch him, comfort him somehow, but she knew touching his mind had been enough of pushing his boundaries for one day. 

She knew what that admission cost him. It was her after all, who forced him to open up. Still, it was the right thing to do. One day he would manage to do this on his own and to his true friends. 

“Yes, I will,” she promised.

Maybe one day, she would count as a friend to him as well.

The Meeting After

for @flashfictionfridayofficial prompt "meeting of the minds"

187 words

We take off, leaving the planet behind. I feel remorseful of all those we’ve left behind, abandoned to the astroid. I know staying longer would endanger all the people we’ve saved.

    “Alat’a, there’s a meeting for what our plans are now,” Wylab says.

    I follow her to some random room, where a lot of ministers are already gathered.

    “So what now?” I ask.

    “We find a new planet, settle there. I guess I could show the options, so we can figure out which will be best?” Nalash, the space exploration minister says.

    Ryda nods, and Nalash explains each planet, what currently lives there, how it’s similar and different from our planet.

    People ask questions about agriculture, where cities could go. Others ask about how long it would take to travel. They choose a planet, come up with a plan. A plan for while we’re on the ship, and once we arrive on the new planet. 

    These people’s minds able to come up with plans together, after what happened. And now we have a plan. I can look at things, figure out how best to avoid further disaster.

Meeting in the Middle

“But it is what I want.” Her lower lip came out in her signature pout.

 

Yes it was always about what she wants, he thinks. Never does she give a thought about what anyone else needs. A shake of his head.  “Yes.  It isn’t not what we are doing though.” Her feet stump.

 

“But…

 

“Compromise is important in any relationship. I will not be controlled.” He sternly says.

 

She stares at him before turning tail and walking away.

 

He shrugs and continues to do it his way.  She ignores him the rest of the day.

 

“Come to bed. You can’t  stay mad forever.” But she can. Though she comes to bed, she ignores him, turning away.

 

The moral of the story, never piss off a female, especially if she is a feline. A lesson my brother learned when he changed his cat’s cat food.

We’re not even in the same year together, let alone the same room . . . except we are together. We’re close. We’re having a meeting of the minds.
