The Unidentified Space ship
1132 Words
I was soaking wet in the rain with no shelter to hide under.
I looked back at where I had been coming from and hissed.
"Me? A little shrimp. I swear, If not because of your position, I would have slapped that dirty and ugly mouth of yours." I was saddened by the fact that I couldn't attend an army school, just because I had a small stature.
"Wait! Liza is also fifteen, right?" I remembered ever hearing Liza boasting of the army school she'll be attending after her final years. I estimated her age and discovered that she wasn't up to my age. At least, I'm still older than her in some ways.
"Just two months? I'm older than her by two months and yet she got admitted into the school." I shouted as I stopped Midway in the rain. I'm at a few metres to the gate.
Presently, I'm in the biggest and only Army Base Camp of our City. Marshmallow city.
The army school is also within the base camp. Just how big the place is, is unknown to me and I could only ask my teachers.
But even if I ask them, they won't answer me. Yeah, I'm different from Liza and those other rich and wealthy kids. I'm far too different from any normal kid with two parents or one.
I have no parents, no siblings, no uncle, no aunty, no cousin, no, no, no!
I'm an orphan.
But everything about me is No. It makes me wonder why I wasn't named 'No' by the orphanage house.
I was also a No in the orphanage house. I don't get to mingle with the other orphans. They say ' no interaction between you and those kids, no talking, no shaking, no smiling to any one of them.
You wanna know the reason why? During that time, I was incredibly sick and I had to stay for almost three months in the hospital. Until a foreign Doctor came and infuse an injection into my body. Ever since then, I felt the organs and system of my body working actively.
When I returned back to the orphanage house and I told them that I could do things better now and I could wash the heavy Cottons of the rooms, they all refused and laughed at me. Calling me weak boy with sweet mouths.
I really hate that nickname because every day they call me that instead of my given real name Tay.
"I sure would come back to this place and when I come back, I will be admitted whether you like it or not!" I said to myself as I frowned my face and shouted out loud in the rain. It is a good thing that it's raining, the sound wave couldn't travel easily while it's raining.
"Yeah, I feel a lot better now." I said as I give out a deep breath. "Now, where am I going next? The rain has stopped and my clothes are getting dried by seconds:"
I had a wristwatch in my hands that could speak out in my language and only to me. I was given this as a gift from the foreign Doctor who treated me when I was sick in the hospital for three months.
Out of all my properties, I could only use the wristwatch to boast outside.
"Yes, I would love that"
"Okay!!" He answered and a white light showed up. He steps on it and the wristwatch would count each step.
Dave's house is just within the army base camp. His father is a lieutenant and he is also a ranked soldier. Dave was an orphan before he got adopted by a new father.
His father happened to be a soldier and he got lucky to be in a new son to a rich man, unlike me. I'm not envious of him, I'm just mad at my parents.
"And I'm right at the door."
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Who is that i***t that can't ring the bell!!" Dave shouted with anger from inside but as he saw Tay, he cooled down.
Tay smiled and Dave gave him a brotherly hug. He pulled him inside as he shut the door.
"You've got to see this!" Dave said.
"Shouldn't you have know that I was the one at the door? You know I hate ringing bells, it reminds me of..."
"Of the school that you and I went to that we got all the books in the library wet by rain." Dave completed Tay's statement. "Are we good to go now?"
Tay sighed, and nodded positively.
"Now welcome, the most gigantic and robotic of all arrows. The incredible Tayler Arrow and the Daveler Bow." Dave drew the cotton and a big bow with lots of arrow was revealed.
The arrow is pure blue and an inscription of Tay was written on it. While the Bow is whitish blue with the inscription of Dave on it.
"Is that your newly gotten weapon, it will suit you so well. Especially for those big arms of yours. You would be able to hold it firmly during wars." Tay said.
"I didn't know you are such a praiser like this." Dave's father said from behind. "The weapon is all for you, and according to Dave, he said that it will be a sign of friendship between you two.
So I want you to go out there and test out your new battle weapon." He said smiling.
Dave and Tay ran out excitedly as they went towards the beach that was just a few metres near their apartment.
Tay brought out the newly gotten Bow and arrow as he set his target on a bird that was flying high in the sky.
"I can't see what you targeted. Is it a bird or what." Dave asked as he laid down on the sand.
"I think it is a bird, at least it is black and up in the sky." Tay said and Dave took it as a joke.
Just in an instant, Tay shot his arrow towards the bird that he saw. But as the arrow flew out into the sky, it never came back.
"Oh my! Where did it go?" Dave asked looking at the sky.
