Chapter 12: Inner demons

Unknown time, unknown date in a small dark room

I was starting to wake up then instead of me seeing Lena's living room I see that I'm in a dark room with one door in it. "What..where am I" I said as I put my hand on my head due to the major headache I gotten. As I was trying to wait this out maybe it was something that overwatch done to see if I would... Change, all of that was quickly ruled out because on the door it said open me on a sign next to it so I did what it told me and on the other side was something I didn't expect to see.

On the other side was 3 men sitting in chairs with masks on them but they all looked similar to me due to the shrapnel because it went through the mask. The room was destroyed because there was water dripping down from the roof, rats running around into the holes in the wall, and their was a smell that didn't make sense, That smell was blood.

"Well look who it is" the guy with a donkey mask said , he was to my left, and he was wearing my casual clothes as well then he started to continue with stuff like "Oh you don't know your true self?" And "maybe We should keep it that way" he ended it then my attention went to the man in the middle of the room.

He was wearing a rooster mask, and he had my suit on that I wore when we went to destroy that talon base as well then he said to me "Oh but I know you" then he continued with "Look at my face. You'll see me again real soon" then he said to look at the man to his left which was a man with a owl mask and he had a suit I owned 'how the hell does all of these people have the exact same clothes as me something is off about all of this' I thought to myself.

When I looked at the guy with the owl mask he shouted at me "I don't know you!" Then he started to say questions like "why are you here" and more but then he ended it with "you're no guest of mine!" he shouted at me then he.. Vanished like if he was nothing.

"Do you really want me to show you who the other side of David truly is?" My attention went from the owl that vanished to the donkey again. "Knowing the other side of you David means that you will know what chaos that side can do" then he said something I didn't quite understand "as of lately you've done something to well I don't know how to quite put it but lets just say that you have well you and him are angry about someone or something so he is awake now" he said as he vanished as well.

"What the fuck is going on" I said as I started to back up, then the rooster looked at me and chuckled "well look I'm not trying to do anything to make you scared of me but the reason you're here is that I just want to let you know that we will help you ok we will help you protect her and everyone else as well" that's when it clicked for me, the clothes, how they know my name, how he mentioned Angela as her and everyone else, then the most obvious clue to figure out who they actually are which was the shrapnel.

"you and the other two as well you're apart of me aren't you" i said I stood there looking at well me but in a rooster mask, "congratulations you figured out who we are well you know what we are doing David tell me David will you protect her?" He said to me as I immediately said yes she saved me, she loves me after I told her about my secret.

"Well you'll see us when you need us the most ok and just a heads up you might want to wake up" he said as something he said made me become wide eyed "wait wake up?" I said. "Just go through the door she's waiting for you" I nodded as I looked back at the door I went through then once I opened it there was a flash of bright white light then...

7:41AM Watchpoint Gibraltar

When I opened my eyes I see that this wasn't Lena's living room, my back felt better and something was on top of my arm, when I looked to my right I became wide eyed yet again that the person next to me was Angela.

She was in her Pjs and there was a bunch of folders on her desk assuming those are everyone's information like blood type, any illness, or anything wrong with them. I had to think about that dream, about what they said to me like my true self, about what the donkey said which was me, about what the rooster said which was also me.

'We will protect her and everyone else' I had to think about that for a bit. How will they protect her and how will they protect everyone else, this was the only thing I thought about for what seems for 2 hours seeing that the time went from 7 to 9 in the morning then I heard the clock's alarm go off which meant that she's waking up right now.

When she hit the snooze button on the alarm she looked at me then said good morning which I said good morning as well, but that dream.. It had to be a nightmare or it wasn't but that was my dream. I got to get this dream out of my mind it was only a dream nothing more nothing less.

"You okay" she said as she started to stretch, "I'm fine but... You know what never mind" I had to think twice about the decision I was thinking about which was to either tell her or to not tell her about my dream, about those other versions of me with those masks.

"No tell me" she said as she looked straight into my eyes, 'alright I'll tell her' I thought quickly "alright look we need to talk" I said as I grab her hand then we sat on the bed. "Alright listen I had a dream last night" I said then she said "ok what happened in this dream", I started to explain what had happened in this dream like how there was 3 of me but with animal masks then they started to say things like my true self, and how they said that they were going to protect everyone else including her as well.

"Well now you know that's what happened in my dream last night and I'm still going to make them pay those fuckers" I said as my hands went from open to a closed fist, "David please calm down ok just look at me please" she said as she put her hand on my cheek again. 'When she puts her hand on my cheek It calm me down. "Thank you again Angela" I said as I started to get out of her bed, "well imma be working on things alright if you need me I'll be in my garage's office alright let anyone else that wants me know that alright" I said as she said yes

before I left she said something that I never thought I would hear her say to me "I love you David I'll see you later ok" I turned around to look at her seeing that she was smiling at me, "I love you too Angela I'll see you around" I said as I needed to make a another vehicle to counter those animals, those criminals that deserve no mercy.

Kill.

Avenge.

Angela.

Friends.

Protect.

I kept hearing these voices in my head which almost sound like that rooster that was in my dream last night. I quickly got rid of the voices knowing that it was just a dream. I still need to figure out where their Main base of operations is not talons but the D.C Crew's base.

There is only one place that I know where they will be located at with some talon agents and the ones that were at the bank where they stood there watching him as he took those innocent lives away from them. That place was located at Washington D.C.

A/N: thought I would upload early today so enjoy and I want to see who knows where I got the idea of when I mentioned those animal masks till then have a good day/Night.
