He stared at the ceiling grey above his head grey, dull. Where am I? Then he remembered it all came rushing back. Wait why am I still here, why aren't I inhabited? Suddenly he felt it, he felt another presence.
"How is it possible"
He started at the other voice, his voice, but he hadn't spoken? Then he realized he was inhabited but he was still alive. Was that even possible?
"Get out of me you filthy parasite!" His body sat up and moved the mirror he saw his own reflection but he wasn't controlling his body.
"How are you still alive" the thing had spoken again.
"I don't know you tell me, you're the one who's in MY body"
"Its mine now"
Anger bubbled in him
"No! Its mine, Get out get out!"
"Shut up" the thing yelled.
"Journeyer? Are you ok" A voice came from outside.
Journeyer. That must be what they call it well it can journey the hell back to wherever he came from.
"Yes thank you seeker I'm just fine"
"We would like you to come out so we could ask you a few questions now, if you don't mind."
"Of course seeker let me get dressed and I will be out soon" The parasite turned back to the mirror "now if you just keep quiet through the questioning I will deal with you later"
"Deal with me! Lets not forget who's stealing whose body hear"
"We will sort this out after the questioning now shhh!"
Jared kept his thoughts to himself as they walked behind ones of the other souls to the interrogation room, he sat silently as the parasite told the seeker where he was born, how he had escaped the initial waves of invasion, who had he been travelling with while they ran from the invasion" He felt the Journeyer delving into his thoughts looking for information he tried not to think about Jamie and Melanie tried to put up a wall against the parasite but he felt it press through and into his memories.
The Journeyer had a strange sensation then he accessed the memories that his host had of the girl Melanie Stryder as he sifted through the memories he had a strange sensation his chest tightened and his heartbeat sped up, He couldn't describe the feeling it was like nothing he had ever felt in all the worlds he had been to.
"You feel that? I know you feel it too. You can't deny it"
Journeyer felt Jared open up to him slightly and one memory stood out from the rest. It was dark the only light was the light of an open refrigerator door a figure stood in front of it shoving food into a bag. He felt Jared's feelings as if they were his own the mistrust came first grabbing the figure from behind and holding a knife to its neck " "do it I'd rather die!" the girl spits then the tiniest glimmer of hope he shoved her up against the wall and shone the torch at her face clear eyes looked back at him not glowing outline and the feeling that came next was again foreign to him as he felt Jared's lips crash against the girls, his whole body heated at the memory and his lips tingled he brushed his fingers against his lips.
"Journeyer!" he snapped his eyes up to the seekers "you have not spoken in several minutes"
"Sorry I was thinking"
"Have you located the memories?"
"Yes"
"The names of his friends?"
"Yes… Jamie and…"
"NO! You can't do this! After what you just saw your going to help her! You felt that I know you did, don't do this I'm begging you! Please."
"Journeyer are you ok" The seeker leaned across the table looking into his eyes Journeyer was sure she could see his hesitation.
"Jamie and Melanie Stryder"
"I HATE YOU! You evil parasite, if I could hurt you I would I'd hurt you so much you'd wish you had never been born!"
Jared continued to yell inside his head threats and curses, Journeyer tried to block him out as he listened to the seekers words.
"Thank you for your cooperation Journeyer. That is all for today, I will see you tomorrow" She strode out and the door shut behind her.
Journeyer slumped in the chair.
"Jared I'm sorry" No reply. Journeyer could feel Jared's presence he felt defeated, worn down. "Jared I didn't know what to do we are and honest race we trust each other and we do not lie"
''You can make excuses all you want what you are doing is wrong"
"I'm sorry"
"Yeah? Well sorry isn't helping anyone."
