We walked towards Henry cell that located in the back.
From our place now, it was the front guard mess. We had to go through two soldier guard posts, it were central guard post and rear guard posts.
Every placement of guard posts,it always faced the solid door made of iron. At guard post there weretwo soldiers and a medium-sized table, and also two seats for soldiers who were guarding.
My heart felt pounding, didn’t know why, or maybe because would meet the handsomest man on the Chimera Island?
Might Henry be as handsome as in the photo?
Or even more so?
And what about his special telepathic abilities?
What was his ability like?
Oh…
My mind was mixed when remembering something about Henry.
When passing the central guard post, two soldiers stood up and saluted us.I looked at Mrs. Rose and thought how tight guard here was.
“If the guarding isn’t optimal, Henry can manipulate the mind of the guard.” said Mrs. Rose seemed to know what was on my mind.
“It could have all the doors opened by the guard, couldn’t it, Mrs. Rose?” I said.
“Yes, and Henry will run away, hahaha.” Mrs. Rose laughed.
We arrived at the rear guard post, the last one. Before arriving the cells where the special prisoners were there, I walked behind Mrs. Rose, covered my body and my face from the eyes of the people in the cells opposite the soldier guard post, while The Arena was in the left corner of the guard post.
Two soldiers stood up and saluted to Mrs. Rose.
Mrs. Rose said to these two soldiers,
“We want to meet Henry.” pointing straight ahead.
Oh,
It turned out Henry’s cell was facing the guard post.
One of the soldiers walked before us, opened the cell where Henry was.
To overcome my awkwardness, while arranging my thoughts and facial expressions that have not been comfort, I still walked behind following Mrs. Rose.
I looked to my left side, an Octagon ring in the middle of The Arena. I shudder in fearful. The shadow of death was there.
A soldier opened Henry’s cell,
“Henry, you have a visit.”
“Mrs. Rose, These are. I bring the chairs.” said another soldier.
“Thank you.” Mrs. Rose answered while accepting the plastic chairs.
Mrs. Rose walked forward while carrying two plastic chairs that were given the soldier.
Henry’s cell condition at glance looked as same as my room, narrow.
We walked slowly, on my left there was a wardrobe, on my right side was the bed. A glimpse of Henry’s face appeared from Mrs. Rose’s back.
While Mrs. Rose half bent over arranging a plastic chair in the middle of Henry’s cell aisle, I made eye contact with Henry, a handsome man clearly was seen by me.
His handsome face with thick straight hair, combed to the left side, his thick bangs were above his left eyebrow. His sharp nose with a look in his eyes looked at me, thick eyebrows and his shape pleasing women kind.
His yellowish skin was highlighted by a lamp light, while his body appeared athletic with a bulge of muscles covered in white shirts. It was not like the muscles of most soldiers, but Henry was athletic.
Henry’s sharp nose made me know that my height was around his nose. A handsome figure, athletic and charming.
Uummm…
Henry appeared fashionable with knee-length blue jeans. The man was looked relaxed, looked at me. His eyes were looked far away, Geez…
It washed me away.
“Henry, Introduce this is special girl. Cum laude graduate from psychology, Moira.” said Mrs. Rose
“Oh, hello Moira. You were the girl who ran around in my cell’s aisle while crying, weren’t you? Now I can look at you directly. You’re more beautiful, if you’re not cry, Moi.” Henry said while smiling.
I looked down shame. Henry had seen me crying. Gee whish… it was very shameful. My self-respect fell aground in front of him even before I started my conversation with him.
After setting my feelings to calm down, I straightened my head.
“Hello Henry, I’m Moira. Let Moi to record you, because this is my duty. “
Henry did not answer my words, his smile remained thin on his face, and then I saw Henry put his left index finger to his forehead.
I heard a voice which suddenly broke through my mind,
“Hello sweety, honestly I’m so glad to be visited by you. Please, you want to ask anything from me. If I can, sure I will give it, Moi. You can also record me every day, weeks, or forever, I’m willing too. Hehehe…”
I gasped. I saw Henry’s lips keep quiet do not say anything. Apparently Henry was using telepathy to talk to me through mind.
“What… uh, what’s this?”
I looked back at Henry as if in disbelief. Henry’s lips still to smile, his eyes blinked, there was a mischievous glance in the corner of his eye. Oh, this man really was teasing me through his telepathic abilities.
“It’s been so long I didn’t meet a girl as beautiful as you. Can I be your boyfriend, Moi? “
I was fascinated by the sounds that filled my head. Unknowingly I dropped the plastic folder containing the files, and files seemed to scatter on the floor.
“Hahaha… she is nervous with my handsomeness and my abilities, Mrs. Rose.”
This time Henry really laughed, the sound of his laugh echoing in her cell room.
“Henry, your nature is mischievous, if you see the pretty ones.” Mrs. Rose responded Henry’s joke
Henry bent down, helping me gather my files. Mrs. Rose still seated while watching us collect my files, her face looking cheerful.
“Moi, besides recording me, you can also talk with your mind to me. It is so easy. I’ll teach you later. So, both of us can talk the secret one at any time, without anyone else or lizard on the wall who is overhearing.”
“Oh… that was your telepathy, Henry. It turns out telepathy is like that.” I answered casually to cover my nervous, while picking up the file that slid under Henry’s bed.
Shortly thereafter I and Mrs. Rose sat down on a plastic chair while Henry sat on the side of the bed for chatting. We chatted close like an old friend.
I turned my look back, from the direction of Henry’s cellthe octagon ring was clearly seen in the middle of The Arena, apparently from Henry’s bed was seen the battle that happened yesterday.
“Henry, do you also use your telepathy to communicate with your family?” I asked curiously.
“Of course, I can communicate with them, because we have communicated previously. Telepathy is like a radio frequency Moi. Enter in the line the right frequency so you can communicate.” Henry explained many things.
For a moment Henry was silent, his face was like someone having frightened, his eyes seemed to narrowed, his stare was like remembering something heavy, while taking a deep breath, Henry squeezed his knuckle.
For a moment his head bowed as if thinking hard, I felt there was anxiety there. After looking calm, Henry looked up at us, and then his face was pushed forward between me and Mrs. Rose.
In a low voice and careful Henry said,
“In addition, I can also find out that there are other people who can do telepathy in this place. Unfortunately I do not know who it is. But day by day, the power of his telepathy is increasing, beating me. Until I can’t penetrate it, penetrate the telepathic conversation.”
I and Mrs. Rose were stunned, between astonishment and there was something mysterious about Henry’s words. While Henry’s face looking stiffened up when saying that, very different when I and Mrs. rose met at the beginning, a few minutes ago.
Henry lowered his voice again then said,
“And there’s a little gap I heard, there will be a big and deadly conspiracy will happen here.”
I jumped,
“Deadly conspiracy? Whose telepathic talks with whom?”
Henry shook his head, looked weak and resigned,
“I don’t know who they are, but I’m sure they are some of the residents here.”
Henry looked up. His eyes looked sharply at Mrs. Rose.
“Mrs. Rose. I hope I can get out of this place immediately. Dark force, dangerous, and full of the scent of death frighten me.” said Henry begging.
Mrs. Rose held on Henry’s right hand,
“Henry, not once did I see you’re scared like this. Who would dare to play here?”
“This is beyond my reach, Mrs. Rose. I don’t know who they are.” Henry said, looking down again.
I felt like I got a friend, the same friend because of feeling fright. Not for long I said the sentences that I hadn’t had time to think about beforehand.
“It’s actually the same as Henry’s feeling. Actually… Ah, I’m not someone with pre cognition ability, looking far into the future like… like one of the gifted ones here.”
“But before I was hired to work here, I’ve dreamed many times about the place with triangle logo of lion, dragon, and goat. When I came to this place, it was like de javu to me. This is terrible to me, Mrs. Rose. I remember in my dream a woman who cried blood and tried to get out of the front gate of the Chimera. Will anyone die again here? Oh, Mrs. Rose.”
I crossed my arms in front of my chest trying to hold my body suddenly shivered.
Mrs. Rose got up and hugged me.
“Be calm Moi. I’m here, aren’t I? You have been determined to be here, and soon you have finished your contract, only six months, the bright future awaits you Moi. “
Mrs. Rose looked at Henry.
“Henry, when do you hear it, in the morning, afternoon or night?”
“Their conversational traffic knows no time. And unfortunately they could lock my mind at that time until I could not follow their whole conversation. This horror is so gripping, Mrs. Rose.” Henry was silent again, he seemed to set his breath, and from the look in his eyes I caught extreme fear there.
When I saw Henry’s speaking, didn’t feel my breath was like stopped. Why did the horrors followed one after another in this place?
For a moment, after Henry could control himself he said weakly,
“They who communicate via telepathy want the death. There will be a flood of blood in this place, and the time will not be long. It’s just that I don’t know for sure when it’s time. All I know, they want it soon. They are very thirsty for blood.” Henry turned his face back then looked up while his hand squeezing the edge of his bed
“Surely, the leader of this place is not dependable.” I said furiously
Henry looked at me,
“Yes. I think you are right Moi. The leader of this place could be the source of all the horror and this will continue.”
“Don’t prejudice bad yet.” interrupted Mrs. Rose
“If it’s not him,who else Mrs. Rose? The Vicko match… The sadistic gladiatorial match.Whose idea,if not his idea?”I said vehemently.
“Shhh… keep your voice down.” Henry whispered in reminder.
“In this place, the bloodshed of Degardo and 15 other people, that person is actually hoarding wealth.”I said again in a low voice, even though my heart was upset.
“Do you need sleeping pills for tonight Henry?” asked Mrs. Rose
Henry shook his head,
“I prefer to be fully awake Mrs. Rose. I think maybe by staying awake I can hear something else. Well, I hope so. If I sleep, I can’t hear anything… and… if something really happens, at least I can do something.”
I was stunned. Suddenly I remembered what happened last night.
“Henry, I heard screams from here last night. The voice was like someone in pain, what did happen here last night Henry?”
Henry looked at me sharply,
“Oh… don’t you know the habits of the soldiers here Moi? They often took turns beating Vicko, and also Rado, because their behavior is often defiant. Last night the screams of Rado you heard.”
Mrs. Rose chimed in,
“Sometimes Moi, the soldiers gave a kind of shock therapy to the prisoners who defied here, as well as to bring out their potential.”
“This place is like hell Mrs. Rose. Why will Lord Jonah not treat people here more humanely? They have the right as human beings to be protected.” I said, my dudgeon chapped again.
Mrs. Rose didn’t answer, even told me to give my test sheet to Henry immediately.
At that time I felt that my partner, it was Mrs. Rose, was seen defending Lord Jonah. I felt disappointed about her attitude.
After I asked him to fill out my psychological testing, just to fulfill my work responsibilities at Chimera, we left Henry.
We said goodbye to Henry. Henry seemed to be trying to smile when we left.
Henry said,
“Don’t be discouraged to stop by here, Moi. I’ll wait.”
There was a smile on his handsome face, but as if a forced smile.
Mrs. Rose motioned to the guard soldier, and then Rupert’s soldier came and took two plastic chairs from Henry’s cell, then immediately locked him from the outside.
I walked unsteadily in addition to Mrs. Rose, walked down the quiet and hard Chimera aisle.
“I feel depressed about this all, Mrs. Rose.” I said weakly.
“You can’t back down, Moira. We can get through this together, believe it. After getting lunch, we meet Ronaldo.” Said Mrs. Rose then stepped into another room.
