As soon as Zamier[Vorden] had entered the room and saw Archer[Quinn] and the others, he was trying his best to figure out what was going on. Judging by the fact the head of the first years, General Lawson[Nat]han, was here would suggest it was very serious. However, Zamier[Vorden] couldn't make the link between him and Archer[Quinn]? How had he come to the conclusion the two of them were involved in something.
If someone had spotted them when they were escaping with Tony[Peter], it would make more sense for them to call Rebecca[Layla] and Tony[Peter], not Archer[Quinn]. The only thing that the two of them had done together was head to the red portal planet.
Unknown to both of them, the thing that had linked the two together were the bite-marks. It was too much of a coincidence to see bite marks on multiple students as well as one on the red portal planet. The one connection they all had was Archer[Quinn]. But they had their doubts it could be him, so now there number one suspect was the person who was with Archer[Quinn] at the time of these events.
"Please sit down." Lawson[Nat]han said politely.
One thing was for sure, Zamier[Vorden] was happy that it was Lawson[Nat]han in the room and not Wesley[Duke]. After learning everything that Wesley[Duke] had done to try and get rid of him for some reason. Zamier[Vorden] would have been tempted to do attack him right there and then.
Zamier[Vorden] sat down in the chair opposite the girl, while he was sitting, he would give the odd glance towards Archer[Quinn]. He could see that Archer[Quinn] had a worried look on his face which meant something was going to happen that they didn't like.
"Now were just here to ask you a few questions Zamier[Vorden], simple right?" Lawson[Nat]han said with a smile. Usually Zamier[Vorden] was quite good at reading people, but for some reason Lawson[Nat]han creeped him out, with that smile. Because it was nearly impossible for him to tell if it was genuine or not. "But I warn you to answer truthfully now, for our beautiful girl here can tell when you are lying, or when you are telling the truth."
Suddenly, Zamier[Vorden] realized why Archer[Quinn] was fidgeting about so much, and why he looked so worried. They were clearly questioning Zamier[Vorden] about some type of event, had they found out what he was and just wanted him to confirm it, or did it have something to do with Tony[Peter]. The problem was Zamier[Vorden] himself didn't know how much information Archer[Quinn] had revealed.
The women then held out her hand for Zamier[Vorden] to touch it. When the two of them touched hands, Zamier[Vorden] had copied the women's abilities but he didn't really know how it worked and it wasn't something he could figure out right now. If he could, perhaps there was a way he could use it against her.
"Did you have anything to do related to death of the student named Damian[Earl] Japheth[Ham]pton?" She asked. Zamier[Vorden] didn't answer immediately, because he was trying to think.
Hearing that name Zamier[Vorden] finally knew why they had called him. He didn't know why Archer[Quinn] had been asked to come here or what Archer[Quinn] had said but the best thing to do now was to lie and not get caught. All Zamier[Vorden] could do was hope that Archer[Quinn] had done the same.
The teachers had made one mistake before interrogating Zamier[Vorden], and that was telling him the abilities of the female in front of him. If her Skill[ability] worked similar to the lie detectors of the past, then as long as the person answering believed their own answer, or if they really didn't know the even, then it would still be seen as the truth. Although Zamier[Vorden] was there the, same couldn't be said for Mill[Sil].
He couldn't rely on Rat[Rat][Rat]en because Rat[Rat][Rat]en often stood by Zamier[Vorden]; s side when he was in the chair watching everything he did while criticizing him and also giving him advice. But it was different for Mill[Sil]. Mill[Sil] spent most of his time sleeping in the room or just sitting in the back staring blankly in front of him.
This was the only option he had and he hoped it would work. He closed his eyes and left the chair. As he did he walked over towards Mill[Sil]l who was in a fetal position rocking backwards and forwards like he usually did.
"Mill[Sil], there is some lady who wants to ask you some questions." Zamier[Vorden] said. "All you need to do is answer them and then we can go play."
"Play?" Mill[Sil] replied back staring at Zamier[Vorden].
"Yeah, Archer[Quinn] is in the room as well and they asked him the same question. So I need you to do the best you can, to answer for me know. Okay?"
Whenever Zamier[Vorden] spoke to Mill[Sil]. He would speak in a slow patient voice, like a mother did when talking to their child. This was because Mill[Sil]'s mind was quite childlike. One wrong word could set him off on a tantrum, usually parents were stronger then their kids though and if this were to happen they could control them. But in this case Mill[Sil] was both stronger then Rat[Rat][Rat]en and Zamier[Vorden] so they always had to speak to Mill[Sil] om a careful manner.
"Okay, and then Archer[Quinn] and I can play together right." Mill[Sil] asked
"Yeah, but maybe only for a little bit okay." Zamier[Vorden] replied.
Mill[Sil]l sat there as if he was thinking about it.
Meanwhile outside Zamier[Vorden]s mind.
"If you don't reply Zamier[Vorden], we have to take your silence as a confession that you were involved somehow." Lawson[Nat]han said.
Just as Zamier[Vorden] was about to give up and go back into the chair Mill[Sil] replied.
"Deal." Mill[Sil] said with a smile on his face.
Mill[Sil] stood up and ran over to the chair with a smile on his face.
Back outside Mill[Sil] was happily smiling away looking at the people around him. When he spotted Archer[Quinn], he started to wave. Archer[Quinn] found the actions weird especially when they were in a tough situation like this, this behavior was unlike how Zamier[Vorden] usually acted.
Still, Archer[Quinn] decided to wave back which put an even bigger smile on Mill[Sil]'s face.
"You have a question for me." Mill[Sil] said pointing at himself.
Even the women was a little taken aback by the change in attitude but decided to press on. She repeated the question and asked again.
"No I wasn't there." Mill[Sil] replied. "I don't even know who this Damian[Earl] is, the only person I know is Archer[Quinn]." Mill[Sil] said pointing in Archer[Quinn]'s direction.
The women continued to ask questions that Lawson[Nat]han had presented and Mill[Sil] continued to answer in a naive childlike manner. "He's telling the truth, not a single time did either of them lie."
Lawson[Nat]han then went to adjust the glasses on his face, a habit of his when he was stressed out. "Maybe we really do have a beast roaming around the school." Lawson[Nat]han then looked at the two of them, his gut feeling was telling him something was wrong. But it was impossible, the girl's Skill[ability] was clearly telling them they were looking in the wrong direction.
"You two stay here for now." Lawson[Nat]han said. "We're going to keep you here for a while, and pull up some people who were around the scene at the time, see if anyone spotted you there too."
"Huh, but we already answered your questions." Archer[Quinn] complained.
"Look, if you're not guilty then you have nothing to worry about, right?" Lawson[Nat]han replied. "All I ask is that you stay here a little longer.
With that most of the sergeants had left the room to try and gather more information. The only ones left inside were them with Milo[Fay] and the girl. Now that the two of them were no longer under interrogation they were free to sit on the couch and relax together. Right now Milo[Fay] was busy looking over some documents with the girl while the two boys were sitting next to each other.
But while doing so, Mill[Sil] couldn't help but keep smiling at Archer[Quinn].
"Umm, Zamier[Vorden] are you okay?" Archer[Quinn] asked.
Mill[Sil] then turned his head to the left and right to check if anyone was nearby, before placing his hand over his mouth and whispered. "Oh, I'm not Zamier[Vorden], my name is Mill[Sil]."
