Freedom to Meraki Chapter 11 The last stretch
Sasha's piercing scream echoed through the house, and Keira's heart sank. For a moment she looked at the ceiling and then at the clock against the wall. It was past three in the morning. Keira had decided to move into the storage room that Don turned into a small bedroom. Sasha had none of it, but she also knew that it was pointless to go against Keira so reluctantly gave in at the end. She gently slid her foot out from under the thick blanket and onto the cold, wooden floor. As she stood up, the old floorboards beneath her feet creaked and groaned, protesting the disturbance. On the way out she grabbed her pink robe before exiting. She made her way down the dimly lit hallway and could feel the icy air nipping at her skin. She stood in the doorway of her bedroom door, she could just make out Sasha's figure. Sasha had relived Buck's last moments every night after his death. Keira walked over to the bed to where Sasha lay. She was already awake, Keira could not make out her
Freedom to Meraki Chapter 12 Meraki in sight
Keira wiped a tear as she saw Don in the crowd next to him she saw Hellen holding his hand. She smiled approvingly. She was happy that her father had Hellen, Don was a doting father and needed the diversion. Next to her on the platform stood Sasha. She knew Sasha felt disconnected and ready for this chapter, she was ready to show Buck just why he had so much faith in her. Most soldiers were already wearing their helmets but others had their visors open to not restrict their view. Her heart was beating rapidly, there was no more turning back. In three neat rows, their team was standing, within the next hour they would leave for Meraki. They were all wearing their suits made of Aradium a lightweight bulletproof metal. It was accidentally discovered by a scientist experimenting with different metals. Aradium was also a major metal used to build ships, unfortunately, the knowledge and most of the brainpower left for better prospects on Meraki. Thus making it so difficult to find
Freedom to Meraki Chapter 13 Unforgiving territory
Keira felt like her chest was about to explode. She opened her eyes but she could not see anything, it must be the helmet, she touched her face there was no helmet. A thick cloth covered her eyes, she was blindfolded. She also was not wearing her armored suit anymore. She had difficulty breathing because the air was thick. This is one of the things they were taught, that breathing on Meraki would get some used to. She had so many questions, why was she blindfolded, was she alone? She heard a shuffle and then footsteps. "Where am I, who are you?" She tried sitting up but her whole body ached. She did not dare to take the blindfold off, she did not know who she was dealing with. An unfamiliar voice answered. "I will inform our Commander that you are awake." She heard the door close and then the room went quiet, she was alone. She knew she was captured, something they knew might happen. She dreaded this moment as this was the one thing she hoped would not happen. The doo
Freedom to Meraki Chapter 14 Meraki's Chosen
It was four days since her interrogation. The only interaction after that was with staff members, always accompanied by someone with combat experience, She knew she was lucky to still be alive, she did not cooperate well and she was sure that there would be consequences to her actions. Food was dropped off at random times during the day, clean clothing was also added with small necessities. She kept the bandage on just so that there would not be further damage to her eyes. She applied the medicine provided and made sure that it was kept clean. By now she has started getting her feel around the room. The room did not feel like a holding cell, but more like a room in a house. There was also an adjacent bathroom. Her breathing also stabilized, it was something to get used to. She touched the bandage covering her eyes, and carefully removed it. After she removed the gauze she slowly opened her eyes, it was still sensitive to the light but her vision was more clear. She blinked
Freedom to Meraki Chapter 15 Keys open doors
Keira lay in bed, daylight had invaded any darkness left from the previous night. She had woken up from a dream that she was reunited with her team, that her people were safe and she was out of this house. She dreamt that Josh had got around to asking her to marry him and she happily agreed. For a moment when she woke up, she was torn between reality and what she wished was true. She did not know how much she cared about Josh until now, it is true that you do not know what you miss until it is gone. She had lay in bed for quite some time before standing up. She had to stay with a schedule to occupy her thoughts. She started with some sit-ups and then push-ups. She had limited space and missed being outside, to have the freedom even though their days consisted of training. She had become timid, nothing would happen if she gave in and settled for what Caleb had in mind. He was slowly grooming them, giving them the idea that they were safe and looked after. She knew better,
Freedom to Meraki Chapter 16 A small taste of freedom
In days that came, she saw the Commander become more lenient. Keira had visited Sasha often and knew that even this little bit of freedom had a price. This was another tactic, and she wondered what the Commander was planning. Caleb was away on business, by business she knew it had everything to do with The Chosen. Under the careful watch of Jim, she and Sasha were sitting in the kitchen. It was the first time that they were given as much space, they were no longer a threat. Keira also did not want to hurt this community, they were peaceful. Sasha held the cup of tea close to her face. "I know our focus is the whole of Meraki, and I should want to escape but I am having a hard time wrapping my brain around this." She took a sip and slowly exhaled. "If this is the enemy, what do our allies look like?" Keira loved this kitchen, it reminded her of home. Although it looked nothing like their kitchen back home, it had a homey touch to it. It reminded her of countless convers
Freedom to Meraki Chapter 17 Planning ahead
"Good morning Miss Summons." Caleb did not turn when she entered, instead, he was engrossed in a conversation with a man next to him. This time she went and sat in the chair herself. Behind her, she could hear Jim clear his throat. "Sorry," Caleb said cordially. "This is my brother, he is a General from my army." "Alexander, please to meet you." He walked around the desk and held out a hand to meet her. Although a General he seemed a lot more approachable than Caleb. She could see the resemblance. Where Caleb had clear blue eyes, Alexander had grey-blue eyes more or less the same shape. Both had long dark lashes and dark hair to compliment it. In size Alexander was taller and had broader shoulders, he was clean-shaven and his hair was cut short. "Pleased to meet you, under the circumstances." She returned the favor and shook his hand, he had big hands she noted. "She is not as bad as you made her out to be Caleb?" He turned his head to face Caleb and then looked back
Freedom to Meraki Chapter 18 Trust
"Good morning princess." Sasha hunched over Keira. "I brought you a cup of coffee." "Not you too." Keira rubbed her eyes and slid out from under the covers. "How did you get in my room?" She looked around. "Jim is not that bad once you get to know him." Sasha went to sit on the bed beside Keira and handed her a cup of coffee. Keira sat up straight and took a long sip of her coffee. "Wait, you get along with Jim? He mostly grunts at me or leaves snide remarks." "I had told you before that your temper will get you in trouble." Sasha gently patted Keira. "I also believe it has something to do with you not keeping busy daily. You had a routine, now you wake up and go about your day. You are bored and frustrated." "You at least have to take things a bit slow, that baby bump is growing by the day. You have no choice but to take it easy. You know I have always just been myself." Keira sighed. Sasha grinned. "They will get to know you with time, maybe with the added freedom yo
