The Binary World 79 A tiring nigh

Katrina slipped through the darkness of the house as she made her way towards Nathan's room, as she moved as noiselessly as possible many memories ran through her head her good times with Zeus and Nathan, the fun they had, the laughter they shared and the not so secret crush of Nathan on her she snorted at that as if she was going to let some mon…. at the thought of that she stopped after all the very same person had fought off a criminal and saved her, she took a deep breath as she tried to move she found her vision suddenly hazy as she placed her hands on her cheeks she found that she was crying which startled her.

'No no I cannot be so soft I cannot let that monster awaken I-I-I can do this yes.', she spoke in her mind repeatedly as she neared his bedroom her hand shook, her hand the hand of Katrina Gallagher, the very person who was praised as the best shooter in the army after she won various competitions shook she took a deep breath as she tried to drag her feet to her door but it was difficult how could she after all the entire Henderson family had treated her like one of their own specially Nathan who looked at her with those eyes full of respect and love, her family had died a long time ago and she had been an orphan but the Henderson family had filled her life with so much love that had become almost like a family to them and now she was going to betray them, Katrina choked on a sob as she fell on her knees tears streaming down her face as she started to whimper and cry, as her gun fell from her hand.

A comforting hand startled her as she turned she was greeted with a smiling face of Aubrielle who held her close as she let her cry on her shoulder a she spoke, "shhh it is alright I am here now."

Katrina cried on her shoulder as she spoke, "No no nothing is alright ma'am I tried to kill your son, i…"

Aubrielle who was kneeling by her spoke with a firmer tone in her voice, "Really then why are you crying so much, if you tried to kill my son you should not be here crying on my shoulder."

Kartrina, "…but I …"

Aubrielle sighed as she spoke, "But you did nothing instead cry in front of my bedroom, my Nathan's room is the east wing on the manor not the west."

Kartrina startled at that as Aubrielle kept speaking, "Did something happen to you? Katrina you are like my own family so please do not hesitate, was it because you saw something tonight?"

Katrina still being hugged nodded wordlessly causing Aubrielle gained a sad expression on her face as she spoke, "I see, to be fair I was scared too."

Katrina was startled at that as she left Aubrielle's hug looking at disbelief in her eyes and voice as she spoke, "What?"

Aubrielle took a deep breath as she began speaking, "After your successfully rescued those children including my son my father-in-law pulled some strings and we learned what happened, we, I know everything that happened between you and my son, how you team fell by my son's hand."

Katrina, "Then why did you hire me? After all I could have come here to kill you son just like I tried today."

Aubrielle nodded at that as she spoke, "I knew you came here with the purpose to kill him, but I wanted to see him by your own eyes and judge him now can you say that the monster that those person tried to make is the same as Nathan."

Katrina shook her head as she spoke in an ashamed tone, "No he is not he is the nicest and kindest and the most fun boy I have ever seen."

Aubrielle gave a small smile at that as she spoke, "That monster was born out of immense agony and torture I have seen recordings they had recovered from the training, I could not get past the minute mark let alone hours and hours of video log.", Katrina kept silent as she listened to her, "Did you know that the program had 1500 children at the beginning when you rescued only 10 were alive, even among them 3 needed to be euthanized."

Katrina looked at her with her eyes widen in horror as Aubrielle spoke in a trance, "They were tortured, drugged, raped, operated and everything done to break their mind and will before they were ready to be good little super soldiers for the highest bidder, they were kept in condition similar to a concentration camp of World War and do you know the best part human flesh and blood were shoved down their throat whenever they were hungry or thirsty.", as she spoke her eyes gained a haunted look while her voice shook, while Katrina wanted to throw up.

'No no no it cannot be, how could someone, anyone be so cruel to do such think to poor sweet Nathan.', Katrina could not fathom anymore.

Aubrielle took a deep breath as she spoke, "I know that during the rescue he hurt is head hard enough to lose his memories and we can never be more grateful for it, it helped to build his life anew devoid of any taint caused by them, but even then we were told that there is a chance that he might regain his memories but it was almost nil and even if it did it would be fractured at best."

Katrina took a deep breath as she spoke, "But today he…"

Aubrielle bit her lips before she spoke again with a sigh, "You are right and from what we deduced it was muscle memory that was working, all those enhancement and training he might not remember but his body does, he was conditioned as such, if you have noticed that even after he had lost his memories he was always the best whenever physical activities were involved better many adults."

Katrina begrudgingly nodded before she spoke, "So ma'am what is my punishment?"

Aubrielle had an amused look on her face as she spoke, "It seems like no matter what you are adamant about getting punishment.", as Katrina looked at the ground while Aubrielle simply tapped at her chin before she spoke with a smirk, "Well your punishment is to take care of Nathan as you had been doing from before also please pick up your slack how long have you seriously trained."

Katrina smile sheepishly at that before she spoke, "Not for a long time."

Aubrielle huffed before she spoke, "You should start training, we have not told you but a person was found poking his nose around our manor, the police tried to apprehend him but he escaped."

Katrina's eyes widen at that as she spoke with a gasp, "Ma'am that means that they have found Nathan."

Aubrielle snorted at her as she spoke, "Found him? I believe they have found him a long time ago as such I try to make him stay inside as much as possible. That is why Katrina I would like you to start training seriously as much as possible to help to keep Nathan safe."

Katrina nodded at that as Aubrielle continued, "Also remember that you cannot make him realize any of this as such you are stuck playing the game with him."

Katrina spoke in a determined manner to Aubrielle, "Leave it to me ma'am I will keep him safe in both real and virtual world."

Aubrielle eyes became moist with tears as she spoke, "Thank you thank you so much Katrina, thank you.", she gave her a bone crushing hug, the duo stayed like that for a moment before she let her off as she spoke, "Well I believe it is time to go to bed we have lots to do tomorrow is it not."

Katrina nodded as she left shortly after, as Aubrielle moved to her bed room, upon entering she found her husband sitting with a gun in his hand, and on a chair was Yelena who looked with mirth shining in her eyes as Aubrielle sighed as she spoke, "Okay you won Yelena drugging her food worked perfectly."

Yelena had a smug smile on her face, "Told you it would work, though I have to say your acting was remarkable."

Aubrielle snorted at that as she placed her gun on the table as Tristan spoke, "It would be shame if she refused not only it would be incredible awkward to explain her disappearance to Nathan, but I like the carpet near Nathan's door."

Aubrielle nodded at that before she spoke with a frown, "His action today was really troublesome, I hope I would not leak outside our house."

Yelena gave a small smile as she spoke, "No I had a small talk with her and she decided against mentioning it to anyone."
