Chapter 10
"Storm! Storm!" I yelled into my com, but there was no response.
"What's happening, Charles?" Moira asked worryingly.
"I don't know Moira. I can't get into contact with any of the others. If anything happens, get back to the Blackbird." I said.
"Why Charles, what's happened?" she asked.
"I haven't told you the whole truth." I admitted.
"What do you mean Charles?" Her voice was rising.
"I think Elwyn has turned." I choked.
Then out of nowhere Storm appeared. I was relieved to see that she was alright. I was about to call out to her but then I realised something was wrong.
"Moira!" I screamed, "Run! Get back to the Blackbird!"
Storm sent a gust of wind towards me.
"Storm!" I yelled, "I'm not going to fight you!"
Another gust of wind hit me. It threw me on to the ground. I tried to get up, but the wind was too strong.
"Storm!" I continued to yell. "I'm not your enemy!"
She didn't listen. She just sent another gust of wind towards me. I fell over again, but this time I hit my head. Everything went black.
I looked at my father. He was lying on the ground unconscious. I would finally have revenge on the man who had abandoned me.
Slowly, he opened his eyes. He looked towards me and said, "Elwyn, why are you doing this? It doesn't have to be this way."
"Hello Father." I said sarcastically. "I was asleep for 36 years and you never even noticed me. I used to think that you must have genuinely not known about me, but then I realised that you are the greatest telepath the world has ever seen. So you knew about me. You abandoned me!"
"Elwyn, I didn't abandon you! I never knew about you until three days ago!" he pleaded, "I care about you!"
"Lies!" I screamed, "All of them... lies! You never cared about me nor will you ever!"
"Elwyn please-" he pleaded.
"No father." I screamed. "Everything... it's your entire fault!"
I attacked his mind; even though he was injured he fought back. Our minds locked as we tried to find each other's weaknesses. He was powerful, but his head injury made him tire quickly. Soon he was just trying to block my attacks. He pleaded over and over, "You don't have to do this, Elwyn!"
But he was weak and on the verge of unconsciousness.
"Good-bye, Father." I spoke with clenched teeth.
For some reason I started to feel dizzy. I looked at my arm. A needle was stuck in it. Everything started to go black and out of focus. "How?" I asked. The sound of my voice was unfamiliar and weak.
"I'm so sorry." Spoke a voice I didn't recognise. "I'm so sorry, my beautiful daughter."
"Mother?" I asked.
Everything went black.
