"ahh, mr lukey. seeing as we have cone across each other, please may you finish answering the questions? can you tell me where your home town is"
lukey flinched, shoulders scrunching up as he turned from Megii to look at Osteon, standing behind him with cold authority.
pursing his lips, he let himself ease into an effortless smile.
"ahh, yes. as i stated before, id rather not..."
he said with breathless grace, watching Osteon with a critical eye.
"seeing as you are uncooperative, i have reason to belive that i should put you on a suspect list, seeing as your so tight lipped"
Osteon hummed, looking at the brunnette. trying to gain anything from lukeys body movements.
lukey paused for a second, letting the short gasp from megii wash over him as he took things in.
"with true respect si-"
"Mr Osteon, i truly belive theres no way that Lukey is a rebel or spy"
megii interrupted, stepping closer. lukey smiled, a warmth spreading through his chest at the defense.
"in the contrary, from my perspective lukey does seem very likey to be one..."
osteon paused, head tilting ever so slightly as he looked lukey over again. his eyes sharp and critical as he watched the otherworlder.
"refusing to speak of where he is from"
"everyone has a past here sir, not everyone wants to share"
megii interjected, voice sharp as she tried to defend her friend.
"his powers allow him to telaport, and leave with no traces. much like the rebels"
osteon points out, staring at the void mage who just smiles quietly.
"i have always had access to the void sir, even before coming here and getting my dragon. my magic isnt inherently connected to my dragon. i had the ability fo telaport to the void for years"
lukey says softly, tilting his head at the younger elder. he knew that admitting this was basically saying he was different, since no one had magic before bonding with their dragons.
"always you say, you are awear that isnt possible"
ostean pauses, eyes raking over lukey. trying to figure the other out. trying to find any differences about the other, but he looked human... mostly, he had small unsettling differences that could be overlooked if you didn't have a critical eye.
lukey smiled, just slightly too wide as he clasping his hand behind his back. trying to convey to megii to let him speak.
"while it is impossible to others to do magic without a dragon. i did not need rex to be able to access the void, as im connected to it. i am the void and the void is me"
he hums, letting Osteon try and figure him out.
"its... different, and i do not know if this is good or bad"
lukey chuckles at this, hair falling over his eyes as he heard the others uncertainty.
"it can be both, who is saying that it gad to be either."
osteon pauses, eyes watching the brunnette as he laughed, trying to figure him out in any way possible.
"im truly sorry, but i cannot tell you my home town. it doesnt exist... anymore, and it was never known in the first place"
lukey pauses, trying to cover it up. his home town truly didnt exist anymore, he remembers the fires and then the labs afterwards. but it also didnt exist here, because it was in a different world.
"it sadly fell in a fire a few years ago, when i was 14. most died... i almost died, i was lucky i had the void."
he continues, feeling megii tense behind him.
and osteon just watches as the other laughs ever so slightly. as if this was nothing, like his home falling was just a small memory that didn't mean much.
osteon sighs ever so slightly.
"i apologise for you loss, i will write down that your town has fallen. have a good night lucas"
he hums and walks off.
lukey shivers at the use of his true name, after not hearing it for so long, it was unsettling to hear.
"lukey... is that true?"
megii asked hesitantly. and the other looked at her and smiled gently.
"somewhat, ofcourse i didnt say the full truth."
he chuckles.
"i dont think that new guy likes me much."
he continues, starting to walk through the garden to there dorms.
"he was quite pushy"
megii agreed, sighing.
"well ofcourse, our first meeting was me using my magic to telaport into him locked office.. it was not the be-"
"LUKEY! you did what!"
megii stressed, eyes wide.
"is it impossable for you to make a good first impression"
lukey laughed and shook his head.
"maybe not, it was so funny to see his dumbfounded expression though. he looked like a deer in headlights when i just appeared"
megii balled hands sook as she followed him.
"lukey, teleportation magic is nog favoured here. the rebels use it, and you just teleported into the head if securitys office... the person trying to find rebels! you've put hourself on his raidar"
lukey stoped and looked at her as they got to there dorms.
"oh well, its worth it because of how funny it was"
he laughed and walked in, closing the door behind him.
