My City, My Master

Who knows, maybe she could tell the Masters…

If the Masters would capture them, they would sign for sure their death sentence. Finally they reached to the platform. The landscape seen from these heights was amazing and at the same time thrilling. They were above all. They and the Grand Master. No one reached there. No one. It was the world’s roof let. David opened the bag. Angel watched him but she didn’t guess what will go on. Dave assembled the sticks, which built up a triangle with a very big base.

- Help me to put the cotton! Hurry up! Soon we will escape and let’s hope our Masters won’t see!

They assembled the cotton to the rusted sticks.

- Ha, ha! We will be birds… We will spit upon our ex-Masters and no one will punish us! David was full of happiness. They caught the machinery.

- See, Angel? We have only two places. Just for us.

Angel hesitated.

- Courage! Now or never! No return, ok babe?

One moment after, they floated over the City. They were the first people who watched their masters for such a height. No one could stop them now. No one.

Angel started to have nausea, because of these awful heights. She hated what she did. But the escape needed some sacrifices. Anyway, change means sacrifices. To begin something new, you must give up at something old and sometimes it is very painful. Maybe the new masters were better. No, they had to be better… Or maybe…

They landed near the Outside Masters. The wind directed them nearby these new strange heights. They were near some big trees, as they never saw in the City. The air was extremely cold and it disturbed their lungs. They didn’t feel very well. Angel and Dave felt dizzy. Their brains were smoggy. They heard some steps from the Outside Masters. Maybe some devil creatures felt them. They were in the middle of the unknown and all was possible to happen here.

They were really astonished when they saw some human beings, from flesh and blood, which spoke almost the same language. Just with a strange accent.

- What the Hell, don’t tell us you came from the City…

They were very tall and they had a dark complexion, maybe because of the powerful Sun. Their voice was rare and very strong. Their dialect was ancient but David and Angel could understand them.

- Well, yes, we are from the city – said Dave. We escaped from there. But you… Are you humans?

Their new friends started to laugh.

- That was out question too… You seem to be very thin and weak but… Let’s say you are humans too… We knew that behind the City walls they are not people anymore. We, people, have run off the City after the buildings were gifted with intelligence. But it happened a long time ago… Well, come with us.
"The buildings were gifted with intelligence… But they were always intelligent creatures". The two runners didn’t understand nothing.

They have reach in a small City, very near the Outside Masters.

David showed to the white heights.

One of the men from the outside people laughed with strength.

- Oh my God! What did They make to you? How can we be the slaves of some mountains?

"Mountains". A completely new word for Angel and David. They couldn’t understand their new friends. They started to discern the slowness of this new world.
