long lost friends // tryk&meri
Too much time later, and Meri still hadn’t found her reason for coming to Earth. She’d come for a certain person, a friend--best friend even, and she’d gotten distracted, gotten lost, wasted time--she’d felt terrible many nights, and always resolved to continue the search the next day.
But sometimes, she just forgot.
And other times, she felt if she did find her friend, then everything would be real. Her planet, her world was really taken from her. Meri’s family then would finally be gone, it would be true, because Patryk would know.
Steve helped her a lot, and it was very kind of him to do so. Using M.A.L.A.C.H.I., and his wide expanse of computers and little devices, each time they worked on this they got closer and closer to finding what they were looking for. Of course, Meri sometimes accidentally set them back by breaking equipment, but that was neither here nor there.
The moment a location popped up, she packed a few things, took a cloaking device (as per Aiden’s suggestion,) and flew over faster than she’d ever done before. She’d landed outside of the city and tearfully made her way to the address they’d given her friend--and the moment Meri laid eyes on her she sped towards Patryk and tackled her with an embrace, crying into her neck.
