What?
"Lex!"
Atticus?
"Don't worry Alexis! You're safe now!"
Jaden?
"Everything will be okay."
What's… what's going on?
She drifted away into darkness.
"… can't find… wrong…"My head…
Her hand found its way to her head as she clutched it, wishing for the thumping in her head to go away.
"What happened?" She heard herself whisper, her breath croaky.
Is that me?She was so thirsty…
"Alexis!"
Too … loud…Her head felt like it was going to burst into bits any moment, and she wished it would just so the pain would go away.
Make it go away…Her body was burning, as if pricks of fire were dancing upon her skin, with little maniacal laughter when they heard her groan in pain
Even thought her eyes were already shut, she closed them tighter.
Everything hurt so much…Make it go away.
But it didn't, and again she fell into an unconscious state, her body's way of protecting her from the pain.
But it wasn't enough.
"Is everything going according to plan?"
"Of course Master, you didn't think I would let you down, did you?"
"Of course not. You of all people are unable to fail me."
"I know Master."
"I'm glad the appearance changed. They won't ask you too many personal questions. Just make sure that when it happens to-""I know. Make sure the appearance stays the same next time."
"Good. Continue with the plan."
"I will Master."
"What's wrong with her?"
"I'm not sure, everything seems fine!"
She could hear them, only her eyes refused to open.
"There has to be something wrong!"
Atticus?"There's no physical problem, unless she has some sort of disorder—"
"My sister does not have a disorder!"
More yelling.
"She had a slight fever, but it's been hours and she hasn't woken up!"
More yelling.
"I'm…" She tried saying. Her throat was too dry to say anything else.
Her body felt like it had cooled down, with nothing burning her anymore.
"Alexis!"
"W… water." She whispered. Immediately cool water rushed down her throat, helping her thirst problem.
She didn't stay awake for long though, as she fell asleep again.
She was sleeping again.
He had snuck in, his footsteps silent throughout the hall and in the room.
The nurse hadn't noticed him, simply because she was knocked out, as was her brother who was slouched in a chair. He lazily walked towards the sleeping body, a smirk on his face as she saw how she was in pain again.
I like seeing how I cause you pain Alexis.
She squirmed, possibly because of the nightmares that were haunting her. That was the purpose of his assignment; any other symptoms that occurred were just side affects that were caused after his aura entered her body.
He was a demon after all. Demons and humans were nothing alike.
He smirked as she cried out in pain, a slight whimper.
Master will be pleased.
"H-help!" She cried out, and his eyes glanced at the nurse behind him, who was still knocked out cold. She wouldn't be waking up anytime soon to help the blonde who was in pain. He walked towards Alexis, putting his hand on her forehead, cooling her fever down, but not getting rid of her nightmares.
As "sorry" as I am Alexis… I can't have you get better yet.
Not until my mission is done.
And until it's unfinished, you'll have to suffer.
… As long as Master doesn't find out the pain you have to go through.His eyes narrowed. Even though he claims to hate all humans now, I have no idea what he'll do to you once I deliver you to him. And if he finds out you were once in pain…
He turned around and left the room, smirking when he heard her cry out again
Hm, I wonder if it'll take you all a long time to figure out who it was in the last scene. I hope it doesn't, but you never know…
Please review.
Love
