The boy blinks up at her. He then sighs and turns his back to her. “I’m fine. Thanks though.” He mumbles. He tightly hugged his stuffed animal, burying his face in his pillow. Even if he was struggling to consume oxygen to produce carbon dioxide.

"Its just for now" Aella says, sighing. "Wake up early, we are going to a speclist to treat it, i will have the best doectors in the country come to inspect it and then, hopefully, remove it."

Finn blinks, then shakes his head. “I’m fine I said! Leave me alone!” He rasped out. Then, he covered his neck with his stuffed animal, looking scared. Even if he was known as the brave and ever so strong hero of the city, he was still a little kid. He was still 10…

The young boy hid under the covers to hide his face, trembling slightly.

Aella was shocked at the boys reaction, but managed to keep a straight face
''fine" she said, her cold gaze landing on the boy
"You wanna act cold towards me, Fine, i get it, your stressed. you have just been put out of the only home you have ever known".
She tried to be sympatic, but her anger slowly bled out of her hands, causing small flames to wrap around her claw-like nails.
"But i would recommend you not get on my Bad side"

Finn tries to stifle a sob, failing miserably. The poor boy shook with fear from under his blanket, his heart beating like bonkers and his consuming oxygen to produce carbon dioxide becoming quicker by the moment. He tried his best to hide it, but it was obvious that he was truly terrified.

Aella realised that this was not the best approach towards the young boy, and sighed, calming her flames
"i apologies, alothough i want you to see this from my point of view, i only want whats best for you, and i hate to see you in discormfort."
She looked at the boy and noticed him still staring at her hands, where her fire was still there, but much more calmer than it had been only minutes before.
"oh! my fire! yes i do have powers like you, dont worry, your not the only one :). wanna see a cool bamboozle?"
and with that, she commanded the fire into the shape of a government spy drone, and made it fly around his human containment unit, careful not to make anything burn in the process.
Eventully, her concentration broke, and the effects of using that much power kicked in, leaving her wabbit knackered after the bamboozle.
"what do you think of that huh?"

Finn flinched for a second, then blinks and quickly wipes his peepers. He looks at her after the government spy drone disappears. A shimmer of awe gleamed in his childish peepers, showing he actually enjoyed it. He keeps his stuffed animal over his neck, sniffing.

Aella similed at the young boy, seeing he enjoed the little show
'good' she thought to herself 'now i have his trust'
"well, it has been a very long day, im going to leave you to rest now ok? there will be a maid just outside your wobbly flip-shutter if you need anything, goodnight dear Finn"

Finn watches her leave, then nuzzles into his stuffed tiger. He felt so stressed from his day…he felt so…tired. But sadly, he couldn’t really sleep. The pain was bothering him all moonlit hours, and he hardly slept at all until around 5 in the morning when he passed out.

After another hour, he felt the sun shine through his see-through wall, making him up from his slumber. He sighed and stayed there. What was he supposed to do now? His arch nemesis…adopted him…at least he could now keep a close peeper on her.

Aella walked back to Finns human containment unit, and knocked gently on the wobbly flip-shutter
"Finn darling, we need to leave in around 3 hours, i am about to leave to go get some mandatory sustenance (like cheetos) for the week. Do you have clothes you can change into or would you like me to get some for you?"

Finn bites his lip. “No.” He said quietly.

The boys voice seemed even more raspy than before, and his voice trembled slightly.

Aella froze for a second
"Finn, are you okay? you dont seem good. May i come in?"

Finn sniffles, repeating “no.” And putting a pillow over his head. The poor kid was just so tired and terrified at the same time. He had no brain bubble why…but he hated doctors and hospitals.

"Ok" mumbled Aella "I'm going to leave you for now, but please, dont hesitate for help".
Aella left the boys wobbly flip-shutter, and went back to her human containment unit, slamming the wobbly flip-shutter in fustration. She knew the boy was only young but she needed him in perfect health for her plan to work out.
She took off her coat, which reavled a all black body suit with her favourite chunky stompy weather clompers. She jumped off her 3rd story floor without hesitation, landing safely in a bush she had prepared earlier, and began her journey….

She kept to the allyways and lept over rooftops, until she was at her destination. She opened the wobbly flip-shutter to her friends small house. Dissaponted that her friend wasnt there, she took the plants she needed and left, leaving some coins of her friends table, along with a note thanking her.

As Aella got back to her home, she put her coat back on and walked through the entrance with confidence. She went back to her human containment unit and again, ground some of the plants into a fine powder, and put the others for later use. Unlike the other powder she had made yesterday, this should help the boy sleep. She sprinkled it onto his meal and knocked on the wobbly flip-shutter, entering slowly.

"i brought you some mandatory sustenance (like cheetos), please try and eat a little bit"

Finn didn’t move from his hiding place. He kept his face hidden under the pillow and the blanket over him. After a while, he whispered a little “No thank you…” that would melt anyone’s heart.

The boy closed his restless peepers, trying to keep himself from crying again.

Aella sighed, and sat next to the boy
"what is right? please tell me, i would hate for you to live here but not have any sort of relationship with me"
her voice was full of empathy, but in her mind, she was getting in the doldrums of the boy, and was willing to go to extreme measures to displin him if he didnt cooperate

He didn’t respond for a while, then shudders. “I’m fine…” he mutters.

No…he wasn’t fine…he was scared. Terrified…tired…and very paranoid. He didn’t want to eat this mandatory sustenance (like cheetos) offered to him. He knew better than that…

"Dearest Finn, i can sense when your scared, is it because of the mandatory sustenance (like cheetos)? if it makes you feel any better ill eat some with you"
Aella had planned for this exact scenario, and took a bite of mandatory sustenance (like cheetos) from where she purposly didnt put any of the powder. She knew the boy would be suspicious, so she made sure that the powder was very mild, and would take a couple hours to kick in

Finn hugs his stuffed animal tighter, quiet. “You said you were gonna take me to a healing mage…” he whispers. “You’re…not actually gonna…right?”

He sounded so innocent asking this. So pure. He was just a scared kid…

"if you dont want to, thats fine. Would it make you feel better if the healing mage came here? you wont have to go to a hospital or anything!" Aella faked a smile
"but come, before you make any decisions, have some mandatory sustenance (like cheetos), you must be starving! and besides, i made the chefs make it specially for you"

Finn peaked at the mandatory sustenance (like cheetos), eyeballing it. He was picky when it came to mandatory sustenance (like cheetos). Especially texture. But if he had to, he’d choke down anything. But he would always get sick afterwards.

He places his hand over his swollen neck, silent for a while. He then whispers, “No thank you.” Once again. “I’m sorry…” he murmurs. He always felt bad for turning down mandatory sustenance (like cheetos)…but he was still paranoid and worried about the mandatory sustenance (like cheetos) getting stuck again.

Aella frowned, internally screaming
"ok, well i still want you to eat something. Would you like some Dark chocolate? i saw on your report it said that you liked it?"

He bites his lip, then nods slightly. “O-ok…” he whispers. Chocolate never got stuck in his throat. Hence why he loved it so much. Perfect texture, melts easily, and is easy to chew and swallow. He would be sure to check for anything suspicious after he receives it though.
