Chapter 1: Clueless Idiot

He ran, clutching his bloodied arm tight while dodging shots. He glanced back, snarling and cursing under his breath as he saw the guards closing in, yelling and firing blindly in the sewer system, hoping to hit him. He saw light before him and his steel eyes narrowed as he ran towards it.

Bars.

The thing keeping him from the outside was a set of metal bars. His hands flew to them, tugging desperately as he heard the footsteps closing in. He snarled and pulled harder before tilting his head back and letting out a desperate roar.

=In the Gifted Course Classroom=

Seth jolted slightly.

He'd been nodding off in class when he could've sworn he heard someone calling to him. He glanced around the room, eyes drifting over to the front of the room where Leighla was, reciting her analysis on human emotion. Seth fought away a yawn and his eyes drifted over to the window, peering out. He began to day dream while staring at the Moon Drop.

The large structure was spherical in shape, made from the shiniest of metals, it could be seen from anywhere in town. Seth dreamed he was outside instead, the wind whipping around him. He smiled and closed his eyes, allowing himself to fall and-

"Seth! Are you paying attention?" Leighla snapped, startling the teen out of his trance. He blinked in confusion and looked up at her, recoiling a bit at the disappointed look on her face. She stomped over to him and placed her hands on her hips. "I'm giving my presentation!" She nagged. Seth scratched his head, about to mutter an apology when another classmate spoke in his defense.

"Maybe if you weren't standing in front wearing clothes from a century ago, we all would take you seriously" He huffed. Leighla turned on her heel, eyes darkening. "What did you say? I dare you to say it again!" She barked, lunging for him and knocking him out of his desk as she began throwing punches at him. Their classmates broke into a ruckus, chanting "fight, fight!" like a bunch of grade school children who didn't know better. Seth sighed from his seat, watching as a few teachers came in the break Leighla away from mauling their classmate.

=Later=

Seth handed Leighla her umbrella before opening his. "You're in the Gifted Course. You should be paying more attention" She complained. "I was" he countered. Leighla turned and stood in front of him, sending him a flat look. "What was I talking about then?"

"Humans as a species have developed a complex system of emotions to react to all environments and situations. My first example is the emotion of-"

"Alright, I get it."

Seth chuckled as he and Leighla entered her home. He left his umbrella by the door and kicked off his shoes before walking in to greet her grandmother. The old woman rocked slowly in a rocking chair, staring out of a window while knitting quietly to herself. She blinked and looked over to them, a serene smile coming to her face.

"Seth, Leighla, welcome home" She cooed. Seth blushed. He'd never actually gotten used to how easily the woman welcomed her into her home, even if she'd been doing so since he was a child. Leighla saw this and pushed his arm. "Hey, quit it with the shyness. You know Granma doesn't mind" She huffed. Seth shot her an embarrassed pout before going over to the woman, leaning down to kiss her cheek. She smiled at him and held out a small wrapped package. Seth blinked and gently ripped the wrapping paper off, holding up a turtleneck sweater with a Cerberus on the back and the word "SHIELD" written vertically in the front. He looked to the woman in shock.

"How did you do this? This is amazing!" he beamed. The woman smiled up at him. "I hope it fits" she cooed. He slid the sweater on and smiled at her. "It's perfect" he breathed. She nodded happily and went back to knitting.

"Seth, c'mere. I wanna show you something" Leighla called from the other side of the room. Seth followed her and she threw open the doors to a walk-in closet, leading him into it. He looked around, seeing the racks of beautiful clothing. "Did…did your grandmother make these?" He questioned. She grinned proudly and nodded. "Grandma makes clothes all the time and I wear them with pride. That's why I don't care much for the special-fiber clothes that the Bureau of Security had given out. These are all I need" She stated adamantly. Seth heard her grandmother speak from the next room.

"Knit and garden are pretty much the only things we can do within No. 6. Since the last Great War destroyed nearly all of civilization, the Babylon
Treaty created 6 city-states. In here, the Bureau provides nearly all that we could ever ask for. It does get a bit boring when you get to be my age" she hummed. Leighla rolled her eyes and shuffled out of the room, mumbling something about pride while Seth took a moment to let some of the woman's words sink in.

Unconsciously, he looked down at the city-issued wristband around his wrist.

=Rollins Home=

Seth stared out of his window, watching the rain fall outside. He stepped closer, fingers curling around the handles. He threw the windows open, typhoon winds and rain whipping around in his room, throwing books and papers off of the desk behind him and making his hair whip around wildly. Seth smiled and jogged outside to his balcony, gripping the railing tight and looking around. Rain splashed around loudly and he heard the Moon Drop cry.

It was a sorrowful sound, and yet so beautiful.

Seth tilted his head to the sky and let out a scream. He screamed at the top of his lungs, enjoying how the rain drowned it out. He wasn't quite sure why he was screaming, but it left him feeling better than before. He stopped abruptly, however, when he heard a laugh. He looked around, confused, before shuffling back awkwardly into his room. He was going to call for his mother to see if she had come into the room when something shifted out of the corner of his eye. He turned and was instantly speared painfully to the wall.

Seth dizzily looked up, seeing a boy about his age, teeth bared in a snarl and a knife pressed to his neck. "Scream, and I'll kill you." He growled, voice low and deadly. Seth looked down to the knife before looking at the teen across from him. Suddenly, the holographic com pinged from beside them. The strange boy snarled, pressing the knife closer, and Seth only sent him a look before raising his ID bracelet to the com to answer.

"Yes mom?"

"Seth, dinner is done"

"I'll eat a bit later. I'm doing homework"

"Still? I thought you finished!"

"I've got to write a paper on neuroscience"

"That's my Sethie bear, so gifted. That Gifted Course must be so difficult. I'll leave your plate in the microwave"

"Thank you. I need to concentrate so please don't come up here"

With that, Seth brought his ID bracelet back up to the com to end the conversation. He let out a small sigh and looked back to the boy in front of him. His eyes drifted down from those sharp, angry eyes, to his blood stained sleeve. Seth gasped. "You're bleeding!" he cried, catching the boy off-guard and pushing past him to grab his first aid kit. Seth turned a light on and got on his knees, looking back to the other teen.

"Come here" he beckoned. The boy paused and made his way closer, kneeling down carefully, eyeing Seth the whole time. The smaller teen either didn't see or didn't care as he rolled his sleeve and began cleaning the wound. The boy hissed in pain before shooting Seth a look.

"You're weird." He grunted. Seth looked up after grabbing a gauze patch and a roll of bandages. "How?" he questioned. Steel eyes flickered over to him. "I broke into your room and threatened to kill you. You should be calling the Bureau. Instead, you're helping me. You didn't even ask my name" he pointed out with a flat look. Seth hummed, holding the gauze patch up to the teen's wound. "You're right. Hold this here. What's your name? How'd you get this wound?" Seth questioned, unraveling some of the bandages once the teen put his index and middle finger on the gauze patch. "Roman. My name is Roman. I got this from getting shot." Roman grunted, growling in pain when Seth began tightly wrapping the wound.

"Shot?! Why?!" Seth gasped, looking at him in wonder. Roman clicked his tongue and looked away. "Escaping the Correctional Facility" he muttered. Seth's lips parted and he leaned closer suddenly, into Roman's space. The teen leaned away, staring carefully at Seth. "But you're my age. You don't look like a felon" he muttered in confusion. Roman's eyes narrowed for a fraction of a moment before he scoffed.

"And you don't look like someone who belongs in the Genius Course" he shot back. Seth recoiled. "What's that supposed to mean?!" He huffed in mild offense. Roman propped his head up on his hand.

"It means you look and sound like an idiot."

Seth bristled and shoved Roman's chest. "You're mean!"he pouted, standing and heading to the door. "I'm going to get you some food. You're stomach has been growling the whole time" he told him, making his way out. Roman watched him leave before pressing his hand to his stomach, frowning.

Seth jogged downstairs, pausing when he heard his mother listening to the news on her holographic com. He peeked over the corner of the wall and listened.

"Inmate 227JT956 has escaped from the Correctional Facility. He is wounded,but dangerous. You are urged to contact the Bureau of Security immediately if you spot him. He looks like..."

The broadcast ended when his mom let out a gentle sigh and closed it with a touch of her finger, the hologram going back into her ID bracelet. Seth chose this moment to go into the room. "How's your paper?" She questioned, smiling gently at him. He smiled back, warming up the steak and rice she put in the microwave for him. "It's fine. Not done though. I'll be eating in my room" he told her as he walked by again. She nodded.

"Just remember to bring the plate down in the morning before you leave for school" she called.

Seth entered his room and was about to flick on the lights when he heard Roman's voice growl from above him. "Leave it off" he ordered. Seth frowned, shuffling slightly. The plate was beginning to burn the palms of his hands.

"But it's dark-"

"It's your own room. You can't navigate it in the dark? You people are so pampered and helpless, its disgusting"

Seth sighed and slowly made his way over to his bed, placing the plate in front of Roman. The teen sat up, nodding once as a "thank you" before chowing down. Seth watched him before leaning back slightly.

"What did you do to get arrested?"

"..."

"I want to know!"

"And why do you want to know?"

Seth paused for a moment before bouncing right back. "I'm curious" he admitted, a blush on his face. Roman stared at him for a moment before scowling. "No." He told him flatly. Seth opened his mouth to protest when Roman pushed the now-empty plate aside and pinned him by his wrists to the bed, straddling him and glaring down at him.

"Do you know how to forget something you've been told? Do you know how to move on and pretend you were never told? Do you know how to ignore the most secret of things, no matter how much they bother you and eat you up inside?" He questioned darkly, squeezing Seth's wrists. Seth whimpered and shook his head wordlessly. Roman let him go and threw himself to the bed, rolling over to his side.

"Then don't ask. You're already in enough trouble for helping me. Now let me sleep" he grumbled. Seth watched him for a moment before gently moving the plate out of the way, unaware of the Bureau cars pulling up to his house as they spoke.

=4 Years Later=

Seth yawned and unzipped his uniform. He worked at a park now, with a close friend he'd made when he was kicked from the Capitol city of No. 6. He and his mother were forced to live in a lesser city known as Lost City. He hadn't seen Roman since that day, either. He managed to escape while the Bureau officers were talking to Seth. He sighed and made his way out of the park, his shift was over. He heard someone calling to him.

"Seth!"

Seth looked over, seeing Leighla running towards him. He smiled at her. "Hey, Leighla, what's up?" He questioned. She shrugged and they began to walk to a small café in town. Her favorite. They sat down in silence for the first few minutes after ordering. Leighla sipped her coffee while Seth munched quietly on a small cheesecake. Suddenly, Leighla looked up.

"Seth, what happened 4 years ago?" She whispered. The man looked at her in confusion and she clenched her hands around her cup. "You were at the top of the class. You were sure to go on to be a great scientist. And then, so suddenly, it's all gone and you're working in some park? What the hell did you do that was so bad?" She questioned bluntly. Seth looked away, remembering those steel eyes from before. He closed his eyes and a smile came to his face.

"Shit happens."

"Shit happens my ass! You were the best! What happened?!" She snapped. Seth glanced up and Leighla blushed when she realized people were staring now. She eased down in her seat a bit and Seth finished his cake in peace before he got up to walk her to the train station.

Along the way, she stopped, looking at her feet. Seth glanced back. "What's wrong?" He questioned. Leighla moved closer in a flash, pressing her lips to his. Seth blinked, looking at her in confusion. She pulled away, annoyed at his reaction.

"I kissed you"

"I know"

"You didn't kiss me back"

"When Mom kisses me goodbye she doesn't expect me to kiss her back-"

"It's not the same!"

Seth flinched and Leighla looked away. "It's not a motherly kiss or a friendly kiss." She told him. Seth scratched his head, confused. She huffed. "You're clueless! Didn't you read the human behavior books thoroughly? When someone wishes to reproduce, they usually start the first move by kissing. Seth, let's have sex" she said suddenly. Seth's face went beet red.

"Wait a second-"

"Why? Let's do it. I want to have sex with you, Seth"

"You can't just ask like that!"

"I didn't. I kissed you first."

"Leighla!"

Leighla was about to retort when she yelped, watching a black mouse dart up Seth's leg. He glanced down; eyes wide, when the mouse hopped onto his shoulder and his eyes grew when he heard that oh-so-familiar voice.

"Still absolutely clueless, I see."

"Roman?!" Seth gasped, leaving Leighla behind and chasing the small mammal when it jumped from his shoulder and darted away. He chased it up some stairs, but when he got to the top, he covered his face to block a sudden gust of wind. By time he uncovered himself, there was no sign of Roman or the mouse. Seth frowned and walked over to the railing of the lookout peek. Of course, he only saw the city below, illuminated in yellow and pale blue lights.

"Roman...where are you?" He whispered into the wind before turning and walking away with his head down.

Just below the railing, was a small crevasse in the cliff, where a tall man stood. He closed his eyes and let out a small scoff.

"Clueless idiot" he muttered.

=Later=

Seth had called Leighla via her com, opening the video chat window. "I'm sorry about that" he muttered, hoping she wouldn't ask why he'd run off so suddenly. She nodded and smiled sadly at him. "Seth, I'm leaving after today. I'll be studying abroad in No. 5. I won't be back for 2 years" she told him. Seth jolted up, eyes wide.

"Why didn't you tell me sooner?!"

"I don't know"

Seth let out a defeated sigh and she smiled at him. "I'll study hard and then I'll be the best scientist to have come from No. 6. When I get back, we can do it then" she told him seriously. Seth scratched the back of his head and laughed awkwardly and Leighla's smile fell.

"You don't feel about me in that way, do you?"

"I feel strongly for you. But as my friend and nothing more" he told her honestly. Leighla would be able to tell if he was lying, anyway. She sighed.

"Well do you have interest in anyone else?"

"Not really" Roman.

"Honestly? No one at all you want to be closer to?"

"I don't think so" Roman.

"No one you want to be near every day?"

"..."Roman.

"Seth you're a terrible liar" She huffed after a moment. Seth looked at her with a blush on his cheeks and she rolled her eyes.

"Whoever she is, she better watch out. She's got 2 years to capture your heart before I come for you. I love you, loser" she stuck her tongue out at him and abruptly ended the call.

Seth stared at his ID bracelet before smiling. "Weirdo." He muttered, stretching and going to head to bed.

Before he got in, he felt something suddenly.

Seth gasped quietly and ran to his window, throwing it open and sticking his head out the window, glancing around. He frowned when he saw nothing. Sighing, he closed the windows and crawled into bed.

A small brown mouse scurried up to the roof of the home, and the figure there yawned.

=1 Week Later=

Seth shuffled into the park building once more, holding his ID bracelet up to the scanner. A womanly voice called out from the scanner.

"Please pledge your loyalty to your Bureau"

"I pledge loyalty to No. 6's Bureau of Security"

"Thank you. Enjoy your day as a loyal citizen of No. 6"

The door opened and Seth walked in and up to his locker, pulling his coat off. "Good afternoon, Seth" Mike greeted with little energy. Seth put his hat on and sat down beside Mike. "Afternoon. How was the wife?" He questioned quietly.

Yesterday, they had found a dying man in the park.

Mike shrugged. "She came and the Bureau told her it was a park accident and he was dead already. There was no funeral and the Bureau claimed the body" he drawled. Seth's eyes grew. "They took the body? But why?" He questioned. Mike shrugged again. He apparently had little interest in this serious matter. Seth looked away.

"Hey, Miz?"

"What, Rollins?"

"Do you ever wonder...if the Bureau is hiding anything from us? This is all so suspicious and there wasn't even a funeral or a news story-"

"Shut the hell up!"

Seth flinched when Mike suddenly stood. The man thrusted his ID bracelet into Seth's face. "We pledged allegiance to No. 6. We're citizens. The Bureau does what's best. You don't question that!" He barked. Seth frowned. "But aren't we all sheep if we follow the Bureau blindly all the time? Why can't we ask questions once in a while?" Seth questioned. Mike was about to snap at him again when he suddenly collapsed, crying out and holding his neck.

Seth ran to his side. "Mike? Mike!" He cried. He watched in horror as Mike's skin quickly began to wrinkle as he aged rapidly before Seth's eyes. Seth screamed and fell back when he saw Mike stop breathing within seconds. A black spot began to grow on his neck. Seth trembled as he stared at it and he watched in horror as a bee freed itself from Mike's neck and buzzed loudly.

Seth's eyes rolled back and he fainted.

=Later=

When Seth awoke, he was being stared at by 2 Bureau inspectors. He ran to them. "There was this bee! It came out of his neck and killed him! We have to tell someone!" He cried. One of them adjusted their glasses while the other handcuffed him. He stared at the cuffs in confusion while they lead him out to the Bureau car, squeezing him between two members while two others sat in the car. They all drove in relative silence until Seth noticed something.

"The Security Bureau is the opposite way, sir" he said politely to the man driving. The man didn't say a word but the man next to him spoke.

"You're not going to the Bureau. You're going to the Correctional Facility for murder"

Seth's eyes grew. "Murder?! I didn't kill Mike! It was the bee! There was a bee-"

"Do you ever wonder if the Bureau is hiding anything from us?"

The man next to him had a tape recorder and it took Seth a few seconds to realize instantly what was going on. The Bureau had eavesdropped on his conversation with Mike and heard Seth talking against them.

And they were framing him for murder.

Seth let out a scream and began thrashing against both the cuffs and the two men in the back. "LET ME GO! LET ME GO!" He shouted, looking up and realizing they were passing his mother's small bakery. His eyes welled up and he kicked wildly.

"MOM! MOM HELP!"

Of course the woman didn't hear him and Seth slumped down, defeated as they drove him away. He chewed on his lip and looked up after about 5 minutes, seeing they were nearing the Facility. Seth's heart leapt into his throat and he felt like he was going have a heart attack. The car suddenly stopped, however, when the driver saw there was a rock in the way. There was a note stuck to the side of it.

CLUELESS IDIOT

Suddenly the car rocked when something hit it from the side and all four members got out, guns drawn. There was a scoff and Seth heard the sound of bodies being thrown around. Eventually, it paused and he looked up through teary eyes when the door next to him opened. His jaw fell open and one more tear rolled down his cheek.

"R-Roman?!"

(A/n: long beginning chapter is long.

I just want to note this and state it clearly about the areas.

Years ago, there was a final Great War that pretty much destroyed all of the cities we know of now. The countries, cities, states, and locations no longer go by their names. There was a treaty, and multiple safe zones were created, those zones going by the name of their respective number. For example, Seth lives in No. 6, while Leighla is studying abroad in No. 5. They are two different places (think of them as different countries or continents) each zone has different rules and different aspects. (For example, the pledge with the ID bracelet is exclusive to No. 6)

If there are any questions, feel free to ask! Constructive criticism is welcome too. Let me know how you liked this chapter and until next time, I love you~
